Good afternoon to everybody, and welcome to a brand new week on the Brea and Clint show. How was everyone's weekends?
Starting point is 00:00:24 Good, lovely weekend. Bit of DIY, bit of Mumford and Sons. Oh, yeah, how was the Mumford and the Sons? You know, I was strange, such an interesting crowd, way older than I expected. I will wait. I will wait for you. And I know they've been around since 2009, but I'm talking like an elderly crowd, like a 65 plus crowd. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:48 My fiancé's mum went to Mumford and Sons. Well, obviously I wasn't talking about her. She's 65 plus. No, but obviously she wasn't one of the elderly ones. She doesn't look at day over 50 though. No, no. Actually, I saw her there and I was like, are you too young to be here? You asked for her number.
Starting point is 00:01:07 How was you? He's like, how dare you? How very dear you? How dare you? I've got standards. How was your weekend? It was good. DIY?
Starting point is 00:01:16 Yeah. A lot of painting. A lot of, I was painting, yeah. I've realised. You got paint on your body? I've got paint on my body. So, so I, we bought a paint suit. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:27 You know, like there's just those mesh zip-up suits. Have you got a few of those? You can usually wear them to festivals. Get this. So I was like, oh, because the paint can go through the suit, but it just, you know, kind of protects you. And I was like, oh, I don't really have any clothes because I've given all those to the sallies,
Starting point is 00:01:44 all my, you know, clothes that I'm not wearing. And so I was like, oh, well, guess I'm going bra and undies. So I'm in bra and undies, and then I've put this seet-through white suit on over the top. You can make a lot of money painting like that. Yeah. Hey, if you are interested, let me know. Get the lady painters then.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Oh, 800 Bree paints in the mesh see-through suit. Oh, mesh now. That changed fast. What did I say? You never said it was mesh. That was like a mesh see-through. Oh, no, this is very... Claudia, you're with me.

Starting point is 00:07:37 Thank you. Sweet as. ZDM's Brie and Clint Podcast. I was saying before that I've been doing lots of painting over the weekend. A lot of DIYing in my household. There's a room, a small room in my house where our dogs usually sleep. And it's a room we haven't touched since moving into the house. Just because we didn't have any money to renovate it.
Starting point is 00:08:01 And it's the dog room. And it's the dog room. So it's got all, it had all the old wallpapers. paper in there or the old electrical and then like this old nasty cupboard that was like screwed into the wall. It was awful. And obviously with baby on the way, I was like, where are we going to put this thing? And then I was like, oh.
Starting point is 00:08:19 And the nasty old cupboard. Well, I was like, it's pretty small. It can fit anywhere, kind of. Babies do like a dark. Yeah. They love a dark, cold room, right? Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:29 No, so we thought, okay, we better get our A into B and get this room renovated. A into G? A into G. A and to B. You get from A to B, but you get your A into G. We A lined it straight towards... No, you B lined it. Oh, B lined. Yeah, sorry, B lined it. To get our A into G.
Starting point is 00:08:47 And so we started renovating the room. And obviously there's stuff that we can't do ourselves. Like electrical, we can't do ourselves. So we got the electrician in and he did that. Do it yourself? Definitely not. Come on, mate. But there's a lot of stuff we can do ourselves.
Starting point is 00:09:01 But we were like, oh, should we just get a quote and see how much... you know, things are going to cost. And because it's such an old house, the house is like, I think from the late 1920s. Oh, is it that old? I thought you had a 1940s. Well, it's either, actually, maybe I'm going too old. It's not 1940s, no way. Isn't it?
Starting point is 00:09:23 I think at the very. But you've got the Art Decoing Fireplace. That's been put in after. Oh, has it? Okay. Yeah, it's not very nice. It's pretty crap. But that's an ad on.
Starting point is 00:09:34 they've added. I'm pretty sure the actual, like, original house is like, I'm pretty sure it's like 1932 or like 1929 or something. They have some good wires on it. Mate, it's so bad. They had good wires back then. Our poor electrician, he's like, this house is a nightmare. It's great now because he's done a fantastic job.
Starting point is 00:09:53 But we got a quote from a plasterer because we were like, we can't do that ourselves. No. That takes a lot of skill, especially when the house's walls are all, warped because they're so old. So we had this plasterer come in and he's like, oh, I can do the plastering and I can do the painting for you. And the electrical?
Starting point is 00:10:14 Not the electrical. He's not a three and one. Damn it. But the interesting part is that in this room there's about the six windows. Like the whole corner of the room is just all windows, which looks great. Yeah. It's very pretty. But the windows.
Starting point is 00:10:27 It's draughty. It needs a bit of work. Like the paint's flaking off and all the locks and like latches look a bit. rusted and there's a lot of work to do. And so we were like, okay, yes, sweet. Give us a quote for all of that. And then we'll let you know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:44 Anyway, the quote came back. It was so expensive. How much? How much do you think? Okay, so he was quoting, and you know the size of the room. It's a small room. So plastering in painting. Plus, keep in mind, a lot of windows.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Yeah. Sand the windows? Yeah, so he would have, he would prep everything. He would prep everything and do it all. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And fill the windows?
Starting point is 00:11:08 Yeah. God, I've got no idea how much this stuff costs. Three grand. You're close. It was like 2,800. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And I was like, holy smokes.
Starting point is 00:11:20 I can't afford that. Yeah. And so, anyway, I was like, I mean, how hard could some of this stuff be? Oh, yeah. Which, we hired a plasterer. The plasterer came in, and she did her. thing. She was amazing. Got the room looking real good. And then I was like, how hard can it be? I can fix up these windows. I can bloody sand them. Me and my partner, we can do this.
Starting point is 00:11:44 And so for the last like couple of weeks, we've been like the windows have taken a lot. Yeah. Sanding, doing all the bits and bobs. And so on the weekend, it was painting time. Mate, looks professional. Does it? If I do say so myself, yeah. Yeah. And so. And the job that was going to take that guy in a day and a half, it only took you guys three. It only took you guys three. three weeks. That's the trade-off. It has cost us a lot in time. Yes, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:11 But... How much did it cost you in money? How much did you save? For all the effort, that's the index. That's the comparison. So get this, all of our effort. And how much we saved... Two grand.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Oh, that's worth it. Yeah, that's worth it. Worth it. Yeah, yeah. So long as it looks good. Because I've saved two grand before and it looks garbage. And I go, oh, I wish I'd spent the two grand. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:36 Yeah. No, but it looks great. We've spent the time. Oh, great. I mean, yeah. We've had like six or seven fights, but, you know, I'll be able. 800 bucks a room. I'll get you into do my place.
Starting point is 00:12:46 Nah, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'll pay a premium. Nine hundred bucks. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah. Well, you have to see my work first. I'm pretty high. Question of you this afternoon is, what did you do yourself and how much did you save?
Starting point is 00:13:03 And did it actually turn out well? Did it turn out good? That's the key, I think. Or did you spend half the money that you got quoted and then have to get the person and to do it professionally on top of that again? See, that's nightmare. What did you do yourself? What did you DIY?
Starting point is 00:13:17 And how much did you save? Yeah. It is Franklin. So we want to know how much did you save and did it look any good? Gazz is on the phone. Hi, Gazz. Gahs. Gahs.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Gahs. Good day, good day, guys. How is. Good, thank you. Gaz, what did you do yourself and you saved a bit of coin on? we bought our first house and obviously don't have much money after that so I thought I'd do the plastering
Starting point is 00:13:41 Oh no In the bathroom Yeah Wouldn't recommend it Or it's even that bad a quote But yeah I'd probably pay double it Just not to do it again The hallways are shocker too because it's so long
Starting point is 00:13:52 And you can see all the bits where you've gone wobbly, Gaz When the light hits it You gotta do like three or four coats on it And see the bad plastic Just goes everywhere So we're still finding bits of plaster After about three years Yeah, it is a real art
Starting point is 00:14:06 The art of pasturing Let's go to Cheryl and Trevor Hi Cheryl and Trevor Gettay guys Hi, how you doing? Good Double call, how you doing guys? Yeah, we're good
Starting point is 00:14:16 Yeah, what's the thing you guys decided to do yourself To save some money? Well, we bought a house in the Plymouth here And they needed a boundary fence Okay Over 40 metres So I got a price for these guys
Starting point is 00:14:32 and I worked at about 15 grand. Whoa! Yeah, okay. That's an expensive fence. Shit, yeah, it's a bit much. Yeah. So I spoke to a mate of mine, he's a bit, he's got a talk faster. Yeah, he's a little bit.
Starting point is 00:14:48 Hey, thanks, Cheryl. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cheryl's onto it. And we ended up buying the stuff, the same materials. Yeah. It's done ourselves in two days. Yeah. And we've done it for about half that price.
Starting point is 00:14:59 Yeah, but is it any good, Trevor? Is it straight? No, let me ask Cheryl. Cheryl, is the fence any good? Out of ten. Fantastic. It's transformed the property. Oh, beautiful.
Starting point is 00:15:12 Bloody Ripper guys. Thanks Cheryl and Tramette. I want to go visit them in New Plymouth. Natalie's here. Hi, Natalie. Hi, Natalie. Hi, Tame. How are we?
Starting point is 00:15:19 Good, thank you, mate. What did you do yourself and you saved a bit of money on and did it turn out well? Didn't save any money and eventually turned out really well. We were doing a little bit of DIY and the toilet, so planning on change. Is that a euphemism? Is that a year for a reason? Yeah, Natalie, I did a bit of DIY in the toilet this morning. Oh, that probably would have been easier, to be fair.
Starting point is 00:15:39 Oh, no. Yeah, so I pulled all the wallpaper off and got a quote, and my very tight but lovely husband was like, nah, we can do this so much cheaper. Oh, no. In the end, ended up wallpapering it, but the wallpaper fell off. We then had to, I ended up breaking the toilet seat and the system because, you know, that was a good ladder.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Yeah. The final straw was we had to get my 80-year-old granddad out of retirement. He was a painter and paper to fix the... You got your 80-year-old granddad out of retirement to come fix your mess. Why didn't you get him in the first place? Well, because he thought, you know, he's 80. Yeah, he probably doesn't want to be doing that. Natalie, what you've described, so excuse my French, is a real shit show.
Starting point is 00:16:28 In the toilet. DIY shit show in the toilet. God. Right. Thanks Natalie. I think that's a good, I think we've covered all bases there. Like we've got a bit of warning for people.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Yeah. What about this one? A couple of texts coming through. Someone said, we decided that we would save $2,000 by digging a one and a half meter hole for the plumber. Cost us nothing except I fell in the said hole and broke my leg in two places.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Tor a ligament and my meniscus. Had six months off work on ACC. Did I mention needing surgery? Question mark? Yeah, but you saved $2,000. But you saved the $2,000. You know? You can't put a price on that.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Your leg probably won't ever be the same. But you saved that $2,000. Yeah. Shows butch you buy KFC's Katsubol. If you're craving something fresh, KFC's Katsubol is back for a limited time. This is the tea. From the well, duh, files, there's news out today. that actors created using artificial intelligence will not be eligible for an Oscar.
Starting point is 00:17:36 Yeah, well, duh. Well, duh. The Grammys recently made a similar decision that AI music is not eligible for a Grammy. Well, duh. Well, duh. It's like saying an AI, like a robot sprinter is not eligible for the Olympics. Yeah, true. Well, duh.
Starting point is 00:17:51 New rules require that only real live human performers and not their AI avatars. are eligible for the biggest prize in film. The reason they've had to make the differentiation is because this, just recently, they revealed an AI version of Val Kilmer. Remember Val Kilmer from Top Gun? He passed away about a year ago and they've shown using him as an example
Starting point is 00:18:16 how AI can basically bring an actor back to life. Back from the dead. Yeah. Is that what we want though? Exactly. And is that how, because they've said that Paul Walker is going to feature in this final fast in the future, Furious film.
Starting point is 00:18:30 Because I remember when Paul Walker passed away and the first Fast and the Furious film since his passing, they used his brother's face. Yeah. And his brother, I know for a fact, did some acting here and there and they CGI-Ied. Yeah, yeah. Paul Walker's face onto his brother, which they look very similar. Yeah, they do.
Starting point is 00:18:51 Yeah. Who, what's his name? Harrison Ford has talked about how there is enough footage of him across his career at every age now. that they could just drop him into a computer and make a new Indiana Jones film like that, essentially. Because you've got such a backlog of this person and the way they speak and the way they move.
Starting point is 00:19:10 This is what scares me. Yeah. The same is happening in the writers category. No AI writing is eligible for an Oscar. Well, duh. But how would they know? Like, what is stopping Stephen Spielberg from dropping his next script into chat GPT and going,
Starting point is 00:19:27 can you just polish this up a bit for me? If they've got those big long lines in the script, they'll probably know. If it's got double spaces. That chat GPT wrote it. Well, there you go. No AI actors accepting an Oscar anytime soon. And that's how it should be. Imagine being like Leonardo DiCaprio or like Anne Hathaway or an actor and then there's
Starting point is 00:19:53 an AI actor in your category and it takes it out over you. You'd be gutted. That's the tea. Dad Am's Brean Clint podcast. Nick story is quite funny. It concerns the wife of one of New Zealand's great songwriters, Tiki Tane, who was a contender for our unofficial national anthem at the start of the year with this song. His wife, Rachel Tarnay, is in the news today for what she had confiscated from her luggage at the airport.
Starting point is 00:20:24 When she arrived at the place. Some big scissors. She wishes some big scissors. She was flying to Fiji with Tiki for a kids' free holiday. Fun? Yes, fun. Well deserved. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Uh-huh. And she had plans too by the sounds of her luggage. She had with her a recent delivery of four to five indoor gardening tools. Four to five? Between four and five. All the same or different? No, different. I think she had received a...
Starting point is 00:21:00 She had an array of items. I think it was a care package that she'd received. And they're like, hey, have a burn on these. See what you think. Well, they on their maiden voyage, were they? I think they might have been. They could have still been, they could have still been boxed up. Fun times.
Starting point is 00:21:16 Which might have been part of the issue. If they were old and you just slip them in a sock, then maybe they would go unnoticed. Tigger, darn. No. Well, she was planning to. Her bag got pulled aside at Nandy Airport in Fiji. This is my worst nightmare. She's shared the story, by the way.
Starting point is 00:21:36 She's having a laugh about it. It's okay. Okay, good. If you've got four to five of those things in your bag... Yeah, it's probably going to get pulled up. But the second that it does get pulled up, you know they're going to find them. And you're like, oh, God.
Starting point is 00:21:50 There's probably more of those things in there than there are clothes. They would see it, though. They would see it all. So staff went through the bag and they came back and they said you can't have these. Why? Interesting, eh? Why can't she? I googled it and it says that those tools.
Starting point is 00:22:06 Was it because they had batteries? No, not because they had tools. They're prohibited items in Fiji. They come under the category of goods that are blasphemous, indecent or obscene and you're not allowed to import them. Can we reroute this flight to Rarotonga? The custom officers Really? They have that much say over like what you do behind closed doors?
Starting point is 00:22:31 Yeah. Really? The custom officers let her off with a warning and then confiscated the items. They gave her a customs letter and they told her that all of the items in question were going straight in the bin. That is hectic AF. I am surprised that that's still happening in 2020. So, yeah, yeah. You can take in five bottles of duty-free vodka,
Starting point is 00:22:55 but you can't take in a, you know, thingy. Yeah, that's wild to me. A little battery-operated thingy. I would never have thought that that was the rule. It reminded me of the time you and I went through Queenstown Airport and your bag got pulled aside. Why would we be in Queenstown? Why would have we been there for?
Starting point is 00:23:14 Oh, we were there to look after some, we were there to present to some big deal clients, weren't they? Oh, that's right. They brought us in to entertain the big spending clients down there. It was a fun time. Yeah, yeah. And then we're flying out and then Bree's bag gets pulled aside. Because it's quite hectic at Queenstown Security.
Starting point is 00:23:31 It's an international airport. You have to take your shoes off. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I was like, oh, God, what's she got now? I was quite hungover. Yes. And I was like, oh, no. And I went into panic mode.
Starting point is 00:23:41 I was like, what's in my bag? I can't remember. You go, do I have a knife? Yeah. Do I have explosives? Do I have a hunting knife? Am I carrying a hand grenade? Is there T and T in there?
Starting point is 00:23:53 And out of Bree's bag, they pulled these tiny little novelty hands. You know those hands? His little baby hands. You know, you put inside your sleeve and then it looks like you've got a little baby hand. I had them in my bag and the guy pulls it out and goes, what is this? I bet you couldn't take those into Fiji either. Yeah, they. They're about, what are you planning on doing with these?
Starting point is 00:24:15 You don't want to know. We want to know this afternoon on 080. Diles at M. What was in your luggage? Maybe you forgot it was there. Maybe you knew it was there, but you didn't realize it was a big deal. Or maybe you knew and you were trying to get away with it, but you got caught. The thing that they pulled out of your luggage?
Starting point is 00:24:35 Yeah. And what happened? Was it a fine? Was it a slap on the hand? And did you ever get that item back? Because Rachel Tarnay, Tiki Tarnay's wife, she's never going to see those four to five items ever again. They would have been worth quite a bit of money, too.
Starting point is 00:24:47 Yeah, I imagine. She would have been ropeable. Yeah, I imagine. Didn't even get to take them on the mate and voyage. Ruin the whole trip to Fiji. She said, why are we even here? Oh, I think they would have made do. Babe, did you at least bring those tiny hands?
Starting point is 00:25:03 No, they took those as well. The ZDM Podcast Network. We're asking what was in your luggage. Tiki Tane's wife, Rachel, has lost a literal swag of what we're referring to as indoor gardening tools. She's lost, I'm calling it, the treasure tro. of indoor gardening toys. She's lost an entire aisle from the Wild Secret store at the Fiji airport.
Starting point is 00:25:29 Because who knew? You can't bring those things into Fiji. They're considered offensive and obscene. And they said, uh-uh. It's just wild to me that they would have... You're going to Treasure Island, not Pleasure Island. Yeah. That's, I mean, I remember when we filmed Treasure Island in Fiji
Starting point is 00:25:46 and Sam Wallace got caught up at customs for the same. same thing. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Big ones too, right. So we want to know what was in your luggage. Rob's here. Hi, Rob.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Hi, Rob. Hello. Where were you going, first of all? We were traveling back from Follaray to Wellington here. Oh, so domestic? Domestic. Okay. And what did you have in your bag, Rob, you bad boy?
Starting point is 00:26:10 I didn't. It was the bad wife. Oh, what a bad wife do? She had three throwing, three or four throwing stars. and the luggage that was going on the plane, not her hand luggage. Rob, congratulations, first of all, for marrying Wonder Woman. That's exciting. I was going to say, who did you marry, Uma Thurman?
Starting point is 00:26:32 They were actually talking about her son who wasn't going to put him in a his bag, and he said, okay, I'll put him in. Why does your son have throwing stars, Rob? Why not? Why does anyone have throwing stars? unless you're a qualified ninja, then you shouldn't have throwing stars. If they didn't want you to buy them,
Starting point is 00:26:54 they wouldn't have put them on sale. No, they don't want you to buy them, and they're not on sale anywhere legitimate, Rob. But anyway, that's by the buy. What about my favourite throwing stars are the one that looks like the Batman symbol? I love it. That one's hardcore.
Starting point is 00:27:08 How'd you get your nunchucks through security, Rob? We didn't. We just had to throw himself. Yeah. Yeah. That was on. He's on a different trip, wasn't it, Rob? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:19 All right, well, it's a good story. I love Rob's attitude, but he's like, if they didn't want us to buy them, then why wouldn't they sell them? We asked you what was in your luggage, and someone said, guys, this is an important PSA. I'm heading to Fiji last next month, so noted that I won't be taking any of my indoor gardening tools.
Starting point is 00:27:40 Do you think I could pass that main one off as a facial massager? The SP too. I don't reckon you can. I reckon they've seen them all. I reckon they've confiscated about 15,000 of them. Well, it's my word against them. It's a blackhead remover.
Starting point is 00:27:55 Well, they'll want to see you use it. Yeah, as long as you're willing to do that. Yeah, fine. I had a small light-up mirror in my hand luggage that when put through the X-ray machine in Christchurch airport, they said resembled explosives. I am never buying from Timu again. Jesus.
Starting point is 00:28:13 This one's good. It says, my mum said she had guns in her bag in a panic. So they pulled her aside and searched her bags. As you would. They were wooden rubber band guns, but she panicked, so she just told them that she had guns. I've got to keep them, though.
Starting point is 00:28:29 I've got to keep them, though. I've got, I've got guns. Can you imagine? She's just like, oh, I've got guns in my bag. Like Trinity from the Matrix? You're a panic. I had little wooden willie key chains from Greece for my friends, and I declared wooden products.
Starting point is 00:28:44 They asked me what wooden products I had And I had to explain that they were willies They would have seen those like a heap of tom surely I got to keep them but I was incredibly embarrassed Oh Here's another one that's panicked It said I bought my friend's sons ashes From Australia
Starting point is 00:29:05 Back from Australia a few years back I got pulled aside and got asked what it was I panicked and said it was a dead body Oh my God I mean, technically, you're not lying. Yeah, technically it is, but you get scared, don't you? It's a dead body! It's my, it's a dead body!
Starting point is 00:29:21 It's my friend! It's my friend in a jump! They did! Oh, you poor thing. They did, I just carry on. I got stocked before the plane took off because someone's luggage was vibrating. It was very funny until I found out that it was mine
Starting point is 00:29:38 and got called to the end of the plane to open my bag in front of everyone. Luckily, it was my leg shaver that had turned itself on. I was like, few, that could have been so much worse. Yeah. You would, you'd want to get on the little phone speaker and go, Don't worry, guys, it was just a leg shaver, okay? It wasn't anything.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Everything is fine. It was my leg shaver, okay? I swear. Oh, this might be one of my favorites. It said, we're talking about what customs found in your luggage. This one says, I was flying into Brisbane for a girl's trip, and I was breastfeeding at the time. I got pulled aside by a young male customs officer who found my breast pump in my carry-on.
Starting point is 00:30:21 Oh, yeah. He had no idea what it was and had to ask. When my friend answered, it's for her tits, and I explained it was a breast pump for breastfeeding. He went bright red and completely silent. He immediately put it back in my bag and passed it back to me. Your friend's got your back there. It's for her touch. Don't touch it.
Starting point is 00:30:43 It's for her milky boobies. It's not sanitised. You don't look old enough to work here. I can just picture, like, especially like young men, get, it would have just been like, oh, oh, oh, oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. This is touch your baby. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. Please go right through and get whatever you want.
Starting point is 00:31:08 You can use the express line and, and, I am sorry. You can fly the plane if you want. Duty free, take everything. It's ZAM's Brea and Clint podcast. Hey, it's a Monday. Let's go looking for a small town, big deal. Bree and Clint's small town, big deal. Who is the biggest deal from their small town? Is it you, Clinton Roberts, from Rotorua, or is it me?
Starting point is 00:31:31 Well, it's not my week this week. It's your week. Yes, it is my week, so we'll be calling someone from Roderua, a business. Can I just point out before we did it? last week I went searching for a win for you. Yeah. I wanted a win for you. I mean, I've done that from the start for you. So, you know, it's good to see you're on board now trying to get me some wins.
Starting point is 00:31:51 Sure, yeah, yeah. And this week is no different because I am searching for that win for you again, as always. And calling a place that you used to work at. Oh, God. You worked here for a long time. Yeah. We've been here, actually. Oh, you're going to call the luge?
Starting point is 00:32:07 I sure am. Skylon. Skyrides. It's iconic. You used to work there. They should know you. I went there about 18 months ago and there was one person still working there that I remembered from the time that I worked there.
Starting point is 00:32:22 And they were answering the phones too. So that's good. So it is good. Let's hope that they are still there and they answer the phones this afternoon. I'm hoping for Doug. And welcome to Skyline Rotorua. To replay this message at any time, please press star. For our prices and hours of office.
Starting point is 00:32:39 operation, visit skylinerotorua.com.com. No. For dining reservations and activity inquiries, press 1. For all function and conference inquiries, press 2. Not where I worked. If an operator, please press 0. Thank you for calling. Let's go speak to an operator, surely.
Starting point is 00:32:58 Oh, that's nice. Skyline, Rotorua, Katana speaking. Hi there. Quick question for you. I was just wondering, Do you know an ex-employee that used to work there by the name of Clint Roberts? Just a yes or no, but I want you to be honest. I haven't been here too long.
Starting point is 00:33:23 I've been here two years and I haven't heard of him. Okay. Have you heard of him in your everyday kind of walk of life? A guy named Clint Roberts. No, I haven't, sorry. Great. That's all I need to know. Thank you so much for your help.
Starting point is 00:33:39 Awesome. Thank you. Bye. Thanks, see ya. Oh, that's humbling, isn't it? Well, she had never heard of you as an ex-employee or just in her everyday life. Well, I haven't heard of her either, so. Yeah, fair.
Starting point is 00:33:51 Yeah. I mean, it was, I had high hopes for the luge. Yeah, so did I, yeah. But there's only way because there's only one person. And Doug mustn't have been answering the phones today. Oh, Dougie. Maybe we need to go back. Yeah, I think we need to go back for a visit.
Starting point is 00:34:06 Yeah, I love whenever I go up there and just say, and everyone works there. Do you know I used to work here? We're back after this on Zed-E. It's ZM's Brinklin podcast. I had a bit of a panic today. Yeah, I witnessed it. When I was trying to remember if today was my anniversary or not. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:27 There's so many bloody dates to remember now, guys. Yeah, there is. There's, because, I mean, we got engaged a couple of months ago. Uh-huh. And then obviously got baby on the way. and then I feel like I've just been overwhelmed with all the different things happening. So then I'm like, is it our anniversary today?
Starting point is 00:34:47 And you're like me, dates and organisation, not our strong suit. You know, that's not where we really hit our stride. No. You know? This is why it's disappointing you've delayed the wedding because you've got to get married so you get a new anniversary date. But isn't it, and this is what I need to know, when you get engaged, does that become the new anniversary?
Starting point is 00:35:13 Does that become the new day to celebrate? For some people, I think particularly if you're having a long engagement, a can. Good friend of ours, Maddie MacLaine, I know he likes to celebrate all of his anniversaries. He likes to celebrate first date anniversary, engagement anniversary, and then wedding anniversary as well. But he's got it easy because his wedding anniversary is New Year's Eve. That rings true to Maddie MacLean's personality. Yeah, it does.
Starting point is 00:35:43 Loves a celebration. Whereas you're on the same page as me, right? You go for the bigger one. Yeah, I feel like it's the bigger one. But then, I mean, I don't ever want to be that person that gets slack. But what would you ever want to end up like my dad in that sense? The man who famously got your mama broom for Christmas once. Yeah. You know? Christmas or birthday? I think it was birthday, which makes. it even worse for some reason. You know, like I want to, I'm good at that stuff. That is my strength.
Starting point is 00:36:16 You are, I agree. Buying thoughtful gifts, you know? But what, so what, because I couldn't figure out what mine was either. I know what my wedding anniversary is. It's the day after my birthday. Smart. Smart. Smart.
Starting point is 00:36:27 Smart. But what would your date be? Would it be the date of your first date or the date of your first patch or the date you said, we've been more girlfriends? No, it's the date of our first date. which I'm pretty sure is the 6th of May. What year? 29.
Starting point is 00:36:46 Oh yeah. Oh yeah, because pre-COVID. Yeah, yeah, yeah, pre-COVID. You didn't get together in lockdown. Seven years, it'll be. Wow. Oh, that flu? Global pandemic.
Starting point is 00:36:58 You forget a couple of them. So next minute, seventh year. So you think it's the 6th of May? I'm pretty sure. Which is in two days' time. Do you think she knows? Oh, and this is the thing. I feel like we take it in turns.
Starting point is 00:37:10 I feel like one year I'll do something. And then the next year she'll do something. Okay. Which is good because I feel like it takes the pressure off of you. Well, whose year is it? See, this is a great question. Oh, you don't know. I can't remember.
Starting point is 00:37:22 No, she's carrying the baby so it's your year. Of course it's my year. Yeah, it's your year. Yeah. So how are you going to figure it out? Well, I went back through my messages just searching anytime anyone said anniversary. What did you suggest to do, Claudia? to control if your messages with what word in particular?
Starting point is 00:37:41 Oh, she's not listening. I don't know what they're doing. Well, she's not going to remember. I ended up finding... No, don't join the conversation now. It's too late. Okay, it's too late. You weren't there when we needed you.
Starting point is 00:37:55 I'm here physically. No, don't bother trying to join in now. It's too late. This is all to hang out with you guys. One thing's gone. Way too late. Fine. I'll catch up on the podcast.
Starting point is 00:38:04 Now, you make the podcast. Yeah. I'll hear it then. I don't know what you do. I don't know what you do. I think I just plan for it to be the six. Oh, no, I know what you do. What?
Starting point is 00:38:15 Anniversary week. Starting today? Yeah, what's the whole week? Yeah, yeah, because then you can't miss it. If you know it's a roundabout this date, you start today the fourth, and you do five wonderful nights of anniversary. You know? That sounds awful.
Starting point is 00:38:32 I agree. I'm going to figure out what day it is so I can avoid that. Well, if anyone knows what Bree's anniversary is, 9-6-9-6-6. Please let me know. Play Z-D-M's Brie and Clint. Oh, there's been a big debacle over in the AFL, the Australian Football League competition in Australia.
Starting point is 00:38:51 Have you seen it? Aussie rules, eh? The Aussie rules, the one with the big oval field. Yeah, yeah. And they do a lot of the kicking. And they wear the singlets. Yeah, no sleeves. So the latest story from that competition is the Brisbane Lions,
Starting point is 00:39:06 were playing Essendon on the weekend. And before the game, apparently there was someone who was in the change rooms walking through with their kids, getting a tour through the, you know, the... Where the players set. Yeah, the changing rooms. And it was an Essendon fan. Okay.
Starting point is 00:39:30 He was there with his kids and he's walked past the Brisbane Lions locker room and he's had a look in and that he's seen. a whiteboard and on that whiteboard were all the names of the players from the Essend team. Okay. And they'd written strengths and weaknesses next to each player's name. Okay, right. Yeah. So they know what to target.
Starting point is 00:39:51 Yeah. Yeah. For example, the captain of Essendon, his name is Zach Merritt. His weakness was he's selfish. And there was another. On the field or off the field? I think it, I think. Didn't specify.
Starting point is 00:40:10 Didn't specify, but I'm assuming on the field. And then there was another player, a defender. His name is Ben McKay. His weakness was that he has low confidence. Oh, whoa. Yeah. Okay. Well, that's not going to help us confidence, is it?
Starting point is 00:40:24 No, not at all. There was other weaknesses mentioned for other players such as a bit of a hot head. Okay. Kicking cough up. Okay. Which I'm not too sure what that means. Bad heel. line?
Starting point is 00:40:39 It's funny because everyone is... Ugly shoes. Everyone is talking about this one particular player where his strength was just his girlfriend's name. Oh, that was his strength? That was his strength. Okay, well...
Starting point is 00:40:54 It was the only thing that they wrote as his strength. Better that than it'd be listed on his weaknesses. Yeah. What would you prefer, you know? Oh, if I was the girlfriend, I'd be pretty stoked with that. Oh, yeah, I'd be stoked. I'd be like, I'm the best thing about this guy. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:05 If I'm the guy, I'd be like, really? You think that little of me as a player that the only good thing about me is my girlfriend? Pretty brutal though. People are talking about how obviously this has gone super viral. So all those players have now seen what the other team believes are their strengths and weaknesses.
Starting point is 00:41:21 And I think we should do the same. Well, I believe that this list exists about you and I, right? Of course it does. Because we're like, we're the frontline players on the team and our management behind the scenes. Surely they know what our strengths and weaknesses are? I bet they're writing this. list constantly adding to it.
Starting point is 00:41:38 Yeah, yeah, yeah. But we've never seen it. No, we haven't seen it. Before we get it, are you prepared to see it? I think this is a good warm-up to the roast of Brian Clinton, actually. Okay. What are these? I believe I would like to say that I am quite good at reflection.
Starting point is 00:41:55 So I would know, don't get me that face. I would know what my weaknesses are. Okay. Whereas you, I think, you believe you have no weaknesses. So let's ask the producer. No, that's not true. Okay, what are your weaknesses? Well, it's not for me to say, is it?
Starting point is 00:42:13 I don't know. Lack of self-awareness, I don't know. No, that's something you guys would say. It's not what I think. Just do it. I don't care. Claudia, our executive producer, what's our strengths and weaknesses? Can I say this freely?
Starting point is 00:42:29 Yeah, this is all right? Yeah. Bree, your strength. We'll start with your strength. I think you make a motivational speech like no one else. If I ever need uplifting, you tell Bree what's up, and she'll drop this like 10 minute speech on you, and afterwards you'll feel amazing.
Starting point is 00:42:44 Oh, I like that. That's nice. That's a good one. And then my weakness. Your weakness, and I love you. Oh, here we go. You are easily distracted, but a lot of the time, like, Ella and I will be having a conversation
Starting point is 00:42:56 and we'll have done all the details of the story, and then you'll pop in at the last second going, what? What are you talking about? And we're like, oh, we've just done, we've done the whole thing, but I'll update you. Sorry, are you still here? I missed that last one.
Starting point is 00:43:08 Exactly right. That is fair. That's fair. It is. And true. Yeah. Wait, what was the last one again? Exactly.
Starting point is 00:43:19 That wasn't too bad. Clint, your strength. For me personally, I think you have a great taste in music and you have so much music knowledge that I can pick your brain about almost anything. And I think that's a strength of yours. That's good. Well, it's a strength in this job, so I'll take it. 100%.
Starting point is 00:43:33 Yeah. Definite strength. Your weakness. You love an argument. And you love to be right. No, I don't. I do that would happen. He's trying so hard right now not to say something back to you.
Starting point is 00:43:55 I don't need to be right. What is it then? You just hate to be wrong. Yeah. It's because you are always right. He is wrong a lot. And you need us to know that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Brie doesn't pay any attention though, so. What'd you say? Yeah, exactly. ZDM's Brie and Clint Podcast. Exciting week for me last week announced that my fiancé, Sophia, is pregnant. Yeah. 20 to 28 weeks today.
Starting point is 00:44:22 And so every time I see... You're going to flip it. What? Baby in 12 weeks. Baby and... Oh, Jesus. I'd rather just go 28 weeks. That's the scary, but...
Starting point is 00:44:30 Because, yeah, that's terrifying. And obviously, you know, in the lead-up, you're preparing yourself with all the things I can do to help her during birth. Oh yeah, which is bugger all, by the way. I know, but I want to know everything I can do, I will do it.
Starting point is 00:44:49 And so you're preparing yourself for these things and then you read stories sometimes and I read this headline and I was like, oh my God, this is terrifying. And it was about a woman who gave birth on Friday on an airplane. Ah. And I was like, oh no.
Starting point is 00:45:04 Domestic, international? I believe it was in America, but it was domestic. It used to be if you give birth on a flight, you get free flight. The baby gets free flights. I think certain airlines. No, I think they had to stop doing it because it was incentivising too many people to give birth on the plane. Yeah, but just not a good incentive. Here are the details of the birth.
Starting point is 00:45:25 It says a passenger on a Delta Airlines flight from Atlanta gave birth to a healthy two and a half Kilo Baby Girl before the Boeing 737 landed at Portland International Airport in Oregon on Friday night. Two paramedics who happened to be on the flight assisted, borrowing blankets from other passengers and using, get this, a shoelace to tie off the umbilical cord. Wow. The baby was two weeks ahead of schedule. Yes. And the plane landed about 20 minutes early. Who assisted?
Starting point is 00:46:03 Who was the shoelacer? Two paramedics. Okay. I thought it was just random passengers. No. Thank God those paramedics were on that flight. Yeah. Because I feel like they are trained for this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:46:16 You know, emergency where they have to improvise. They have some knowledge. Yeah. But yeah, anyway, everyone's happy and healthy. Can you imagine? So apparently she was flying to where her mother lived. Yeah. So her mom could be there.
Starting point is 00:46:32 when she did give birth in two weeks. And so you imagine, you're like, hey, mom, you know, you text your mom. You're like, just about to take off or see when I get there. Yeah, yeah. And then next minute you walk out from the terminal, and you've got a baby, and your mum's like, what the hell? Huh? When did that happen?
Starting point is 00:46:51 Whose baby is that? When the hell did that happen? Wait, did you? That's a nightmare situation, to be honest. Aside from the stress of giving birth on a plane. awful. If you've flown domestically in the States, like you know how when you fly in New Zealand,
Starting point is 00:47:07 you go on in New Zealand, you might go off to Wellington for the weekend. It's still kind of glamorous. Yeah. You're like, oh, hop on there. I'm going to do some air travel. In the States, it's just like a bus in the sky. And they just heard you on and heard you off.
Starting point is 00:47:19 And then if you're giving birth on there, I reckon their reaction would have been like, do you have to? Oh, God, this is really going to affect the rest of our day. I heard that the mum said, The most stressful thing was that she had to pay extra for carry on. Carry off. She had to pay for an extra ticket.
Starting point is 00:47:40 Yeah, yeah. Once they were like, ah, ah, ah. That baby's at a free flight now. You're going to pay for that? What we thought, I don't know if we should do it that way, but, look, I know you're nervous about. Yes, very. I won't say D-day, B-day, birthday. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:48:01 So we want to know where you gave birth that was in a hospital. Yeah. And it's not going to happen to you. It's not home birth. It's not going to happen. And not home birth. It's not a planned home birth. And not a planned.
Starting point is 00:48:13 Are there any other places you can plan to give birth? Hospital, home. At the local, at the RSA. Local RSA. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. You just really didn't want to miss out on that meat pack. Where'd you give birth?
Starting point is 00:48:28 Yes. Where'd you or your partner give birth? I feel like there's. going to be quite a few people giving birth in the car. Yeah, where'd your mum give birth to you? Can you, I always wanted to know, like, if you give birth in the car, yeah. Like, can that, can they clean that up?
Starting point is 00:48:43 Yeah. Or are you always going to, like, you know, when you... Well, they can clean an Uber after you do a boo's night chunny on it. Yeah. They can clean anything. You know, like, are you always, when you're putting the kids in the back of the car, I'd be like, there's some of my after birth. Oh.
Starting point is 00:48:58 You know? No, no. You clean it up. Like, do you have to specify when you're selling that car? Yeah, has a been... Three children given, like, you know? Yeah, yeah. Non-smoker.
Starting point is 00:49:07 I only driven to the shops and back on Sunday. Only two births. Birth two children in front passenger seat. Epic. Oh, I hundred dollars a dem. Well, text to 9696.96 with your unconventional birth location. Dead end. Did you give birth in the supermarket aisle of your local?
Starting point is 00:49:30 supermarket. Did you give birth at Mobile at Pump 3? That's what we're asking this afternoon. A woman on a Delta Airlines flight in the States on Friday gave birth on the flight and luckily two paramedics were on board and they managed to use a shoelace from someone's shoe
Starting point is 00:49:51 to cut off the umbilical cord. Crazy. That's like McGuiver's stuff. I was thinking oh it must happen all the time but actually if it makes the news still, it mustn't be that common. I don't think it's very common. Because you're not allowed to fly when you're a certain amount of weeks away from giving birth, right? Yes, and you also We've got to keep this woman on the ground. And you also can't get insurance after a certain amount of weeks. Like it's quite difficult to be insured. You know, like if you travel overseas or if
Starting point is 00:50:19 you're like, you know, and they won't insure you because you're like, hell no, we're not taking on that liability. So with the Sprog drop is what we want to know this afternoon. Kate's on the phone. Hi, Kate. Hi, how's it going? Good, thanks. Was it you that gave birth in somewhere, a place that you shouldn't have? Yeah, the Middotsen car park. No way.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Like that's afternoon on a summer's day. So talk us through it. How'd this come about? Oh, so I went into Labor and my husband's a really chill guy. And I was like, oh, maybe, you know, it's not that sore, not that bad. And then, um, well, I should better get in the car and he checked me. He's a plumber. He's not a doctor.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Right. And said, you're not fully dilated. And for some reason, I believed him. How was he going to tell you? Would he know? He's a plumber. He's like, he wouldn't know the, yeah. I guess he knows the diameter of a pipe.
Starting point is 00:51:16 But was he down there having a look? And what? Does he know the diameter of Kate as well? Exactly. Honestly, I think he was, I don't know, he wanted to calm me down. Then I hopped in the front seat of the car. And then we only live five minutes. from the birthing unit, which is next to MITA 10.
Starting point is 00:51:33 Don't tell me he popped into MITA 10 to grab something. That was a good deal. No, no, yeah. Well, he probably did afterwards. But, yeah, and got then, got to the roundabout before, about 100 metres before and said the heads out. What? The head's out.
Starting point is 00:51:48 Yeah, and then I held her and we parked up and then gave birth to her. That is words no expectant mother wants to hear whilst still in the car. The head is out. You're incredible, Kate. I hadn't prepared for it. So you technically, Kate, you technically, Kate, you delivered your own baby. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:09 Wow. Yeah, I just think my midwife did get, because she was at the birthday unit and ran out to the car park. But yeah, I literally. You're like pretty much. Yeah, yeah. Put your feet up, Dole. I've done it all. I've got this one. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:22 So, yeah, it was crazy. We were talking before about how you used to get free flights if you give birth on a plane. Does your baby get anything free from my to test? Oh, she hung up. Oh, she's gone. Oh, well. Thanks, Kate. Great call.
Starting point is 00:52:38 Someone said I gave birth to my son literally on the side of the road. He had grass on his head. Wow. That's amazing. Someone else said, hey, Brian Clint. My name's Georgia, and I don't know if you remember me, but I was the kid that called up last year. My mom gave birth to me in the toilet.
Starting point is 00:52:56 She thought I was a little poo. I do remember Georgia, actually. I do remember the George's, yeah. I gave birth. the car in the hospital car park while the midwife ran around trying to find us in the car park. Yep. That's amazing. Someone said, does giving birth to your own first child at home not planned, mind you, I think
Starting point is 00:53:21 I have the best birth story as I've empowered so many people with my story. No one was home. Midwife didn't believe I was in labour. Hubby went to work and I gave him. birth to my baby girl on the on sweet floor, rang my mum so elated, and she told me that I better call the midwife first. Needless to say, she was there quick smart to check the baby
Starting point is 00:53:44 and to give me a pat on the back. Oh my God, call the midwife, please. I love how she's like just so stoked. She's look what I did. I'm going to call mum and tell her what I did. Hey, mum, you're not going to believe this. FaceTime her. Hear that?
Starting point is 00:53:57 Yeah. Yep, just gave birth by myself. I made that. I drove myself 30 minutes on rural bouncy roads to my daughter's daycare to drop her somewhere safe and then another 15 minutes to the birthing unit. An hour later my second daughter was born. How? Hubby met me there.
Starting point is 00:54:15 Yeah, you've got it under control. You just deal with everything. You do the daycare drop off. A badass thing. And self-transport yourself to the hospital. Abbe's like, oh, it kind of puts me out to drop our other kid off a daycare. Was it Julianne Genter, the Green Party? the MP who rode her bike
Starting point is 00:54:32 to the hospital to give birth? I think that rings a bell. She biked herself to the hospital. Wait. Yeah. She rode a bike. From memory, that's correct. It is, isn't it, Claudia?
Starting point is 00:54:42 Yeah, was her? She wrote her bike. It's the most green party story ever. She didn't get an Uber. She didn't use any fossil fuels. She biked herself to hospital to give birth. I feel like that's the one time where you get a pass. You know?
Starting point is 00:54:55 Yeah. If you jump in a big diesel yute. No, no way. I would never. You want to be a member of this party? That baby is a zero emissions baby or nothing. Someone else said I gave birth to my baby boy out of McDonald's. I was halfway through a nugget.
Starting point is 00:55:12 Epic. Call the baby nugget. Got who. Call the baby nugget. Or first name sweet, second name sour. Yeah, or that. Z names Brinclint. All I want from my birthday to the birthday thing.
Starting point is 00:55:26 Don't Google that on your work Wi-Fi. Right now we're doing birthday. Today banger, number one song when you turn 16. We'll figure out three and play our favourite. Isabella's first. Hi, Isabella. Hi, Isabella. Hi.
Starting point is 00:55:39 Tell us, mate. What is your birthday? My birthday is the 3rd of April 1999. All right. That means you were 16, Izzy, on 2015, and we've done our calculations. Here's your birthday banger. Christopher Luxon's favorite song. Yeah, it's ruined it for me.
Starting point is 00:56:04 little bit because all I picture is him singing it for me as well. Yeah. You know, and I just picture him singing it with no backing music. That was a bit cringe, yeah. So it's a strong maybe from you, Isabella? Well, it was a very strong yes until you reminded us of Christmas election. Oh, okay, thanks wait there, Izzy. Talia is going to do their birthday banger.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Hi, Talia. Hi, Talia. Hi, how's doing? Good, thank you. mate, what are you hoping for? I don't think it's that great from memory. I think I've looked it up before. Okay.
Starting point is 00:56:41 I was like, oh, it's not that great. Well, maybe. It's got to be better than Christopher Luxon. Just for the record, it wasn't Christopher Loxon is not Isabella's birthday banger. It's just a song that Prime Minister Christopher Luxon sung once. Oh, Talia, that was ruthless from you. Claude, can you load us up the Christopher Luxon edit, please? It haunts me that clip.
Starting point is 00:57:09 Talia, what's your date of birth? My date of birth is also the third of, but I'm of August, 1985. All right, Talia. You were 16 in 2001, and he's your birthday banger. Oh, it's a banger, Talia. Now, this is a song I don't want to hear Christopher Luxon singing. Definitely not. Destiny's Child Bootylishers.
Starting point is 00:57:34 That wounding traumatising. Yeah, he's actually a pretty good song. Yeah, I was going to say it. When you were saying it wasn't good, I was looking at it. I was like, I think it's pretty good. Yeah. That's a good one. Wait there, one more for Renee.
Starting point is 00:57:48 Hi, Renee. Hi, Renee. Hello. It's your birthday tomorrow, Renee. It is. Is it? Is it a big one, Renee? How old are you turning?
Starting point is 00:57:57 Oh, 21. Nah. 32. 32. The other 21. Yeah, nice, Renee. That means you would have been born on the 5th of May 1994, so you were 16 and 2010, and here's your birthday banger. Yeah, that one's pretty good, right?
Starting point is 00:58:20 B-O-B. It's a rapper from B-O-B and Haley Williams. You a fan, Renee? Yes or no? Yeah, that one's pretty good, right? Yeah. It's not bad, eh? Whenever we play with us, Brie does the whole rap, word for words. I don't know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:58:38 I could use a dreamer a day. And because of that reason, Renee, I am going to choose Bootylicious. Are you? Destiny's child. Interesting. That is my choice. God, if we had the Christopher Luxon edit, I'd be highly tempted. I'm so glad we don't.
Starting point is 00:59:02 Have they deleted it from all platforms, have they? Is that where our tax payer money's going? As Luxon had the internet scrubs. As Luxon paid internet hackers to have it permanently deleted. If they're doing that, can they get the video of David Seymour twerking on Dancing with the Stars removed as well? Yeah, I'll be happy if I never have to see that again. No, no, it's there. Don't you guys worry. One of my favourite songs.
Starting point is 00:59:24 Do you ready for it? So I'm walking on to this, right? This is for you, Isabella? Good catchy intro, I think. Oh, stop now. New Zealand is a feeling across this country. Got bills I've got to pay
Starting point is 00:59:41 So I'm going to work Work work every day I've got mouths I've got a feed He's not even that confident When he's doing it Isn't it perfect? Isn't it perfect?
Starting point is 00:59:53 I like how he talks About how he's going to walk out to it That's my favourite part Hey Talia you're the winner of birthday banger Get it Talia I got bills We're calling Mum's next for Robbie Williams on ZM. ZM's Brean Clint podcast.
Starting point is 01:00:17 My question for you this afternoon is, is everywhere appropriate to drop and up the waz? You know the catch guy? Up the wards. I think pretty much nearly anywhere. I was at a Mumford and Sons concert on the weekend. Fantastic concert. Not the crowd I was expecting.
Starting point is 01:00:35 A lot more senior citizens, I would say. A lot more people in the over 65 category, which is very surprising to me. I know they haven't had a hit for a while, Mumford and Sons, but I didn't think they were in the Cliff Richard category, you know? Oh, they're a fantastic band. Fantastic band. You know, I feel like folk music does attract folk.
Starting point is 01:00:57 Older folk. Yeah. Fair enough. And then a lot of people of all ages, shapes and sizes there too. Yeah, nice mix. I will context this by saying the concept, was the same time as the Warriors versus Parramatta Eels game. Not a true fan.
Starting point is 01:01:14 You're not a true fan. I was watching the score, checking it on the score on the tribe app throughout the concert. As some bands do, in the latter part of the show, they went to a smaller stage, which was in the middle of the crowd, is it Spark Arena, and then there was this little stage and it was for an acoustic performance.
Starting point is 01:01:31 You know when they change it up and they go and do that? And so they're doing their acoustic performance. And then, if you know Mumford and Sons, a lot of harmonies, a lot of like chorus vocals and the way they're bread and butter. Totally. And they said for this next bit we're going to use no instruments and we're just going to use our voice and we're all going to stand around this one microphone.
Starting point is 01:01:49 So we need you guys to be quiet for this. Okay, we need you guys to be quiet. Right, I see where this is going. Uh-huh. And they go into this hauntingly beautiful song which I'd actually never heard before, but it was beautiful. But given that the rest of the song was very loud and rocky, This is very quiet.
Starting point is 01:02:09 Mm-hmm. And the song hits a small lull where Marcus Mumford is getting as emotional as he can. And you hear from the back of the arena, which I got to admit, I did laugh at. And it did get a round of applause. And it did get a smile from the band. Here's my opinion on it. I think it is appropriate. And these are my reasons.
Starting point is 01:02:36 Yes. One, the wares were playing when that concert was on. Yes. Two, the wars were winning. Yes. Maybe during that they scored a try. We don't know. Could have been at that exact moment.
Starting point is 01:02:53 Okay, I understand. Yep. That things all aligned. Okay. And three, up to waz. Up to wars. Okay, I'll accept that. And I'll accept that that first one was actually kind of perfectly timed.
Starting point is 01:03:05 Yeah. And it gave Mumford and Sons a taste of Kiwi culture too. What nobody appreciated was the seven guys after that. Oh, that's sad. Who thought they were just as funny. And so at different parts of different songs, because they did about three or four acoustic songs, you'd hear another,
Starting point is 01:03:21 up the was? Every time it got a little bit more, like, cringy and a little bit worse, to the point that Marcus Mumford stopped the show, and he goes, you know what? I knew on a Saturday night in Auckland that doing an acoustic part of the show was a bad idea. We'll head back up to the stage. Oh, he got the shit.
Starting point is 01:03:42 No, he didn't get it. He got it. He got it. He knew where he was. He got it. This is a serious question. Yeah. And I need to ask you. Yeah. Were you the seventh one?
Starting point is 01:03:56 Absolutely not. It's not that I remember anyway. I just had to check. I just had to check to make sure. Play ZM's Brian Clint on Inser, Facebook, TikTok and live weekdays from three on ZM.
