The ZM Podcast Network. Hi everybody, welcome to the Brie and Clint Podcast where, does anyone know if the podcast award that we, like, just casually, not really desperate at all, casually, just really casually asked people to vote for us. Yeah. Has it been drawn yet? It's all gone quiet. Yeah.

Well, I'm going to say if we haven't heard anything. That's a good sign. That no news is good news. Remember, you weren't even invited to the TV awards. That's true. Until the day before. Yeah. And then you ended up winning them.

So we may still be in the running for world's best podcast. Is there a dinner? An event? Would you? No, I don't think so. I think because it's all, I think digital things are all like, we're just not on the same page. For the podcasts?

Yeah, the podcast awards, I think. Ella? It gets announced on the 12th of December who wins. Oh, Nick Week. Nick Week. Still time to vote. Yeah, vote. Is voting closed?

No. Can you pump out some more propaganda about voting for us? Oh, yeah. Sorry. Please stay on that. You've got to really smash the people, you know? You've got to really just punish them. Drive the message. Alright, let's do that. We'll film a video. What should we do when we get gold?

Get real arrogant. Yep. Big heads. Yep. Diva status. Demand car parks in the building. Gold microphone. Dressing room. And Max. Yeah, and mountains of cocaine. I'm all good. I'm all good.

I think I'll pass. I don't have storage room for mountains. On the gold microphone. I don't want to get too flashy. Yeah, maybe have your own personal mic. It's a bit dirty. Yeah, true, true, true. Kyle and Jackie O in Australia have their own personal mics.

That makes sense. They take them out of the studio once the show's finished. And car parks in the building. Oh, yeah. They could own the building if they wanted to. And mountains of cash. They do have mountains of cash. Mountains of sea.

Mountains of sea word. Okay, well, I just thought I would check in on that because I feel like it's gone quiet. It's just important to check. That is important. Guys, you know what I've realised in the last... I'm finally ready to admit this. Because obviously it's really hard, I feel like, in this November and December

where you shouldn't be buying anything for yourself. You really should be not buying stuff for yourself. But you're in the shops and you're on the online stores. Exactly right. I have eyes. It's so punishing i have needs and i gave in yesterday and i bought myself a little outfit what'd you get bought myself a little outfit and i've realized that i'm one of those people where buying things makes me feel

good is that for like it really does it gives me like the biggest serotonin hit it's so bad yeah i get a big rush and then immediately i'm like oh i can't afford that yeah i get that Is that for like, it really does. It gives me like the biggest serotonin hit. It's so bad. I get a big rush and then immediately I'm like, oh, I can't afford that. Yeah, I get that. What have I done? I don't even like it that much. Yeah, and then you get it and you're like, oh, don't I like this? I get a tight chest. Yeah, there's always that worry when you're buying stuff online.

I return a lot of things. Has your partner let you start buying stuff again? What do you mean let me? I was never not allowed. Really? She's in prison. It was just the deal. She went to drastic measures to downsize your bulging wardrobe.

And by bulging, it's not an understatement. Yeah. Your wardrobe. It's not that she wanted to control my money. She just was like, we can't fit any more shit in the wardrobe. Can you let me know when Bree's wardrobe store opens up again? I'd love to take a gander. Do you want some of it?

Oh, yeah, absolutely. Do you have any jumpers? You could run through her wardrobe like a grocery grab and take as much stuff as you wanted. I reckon she would barely notice. Lots of t-shirts. Oh, cool. I'd like some baggy shirts.

No, I call dibs. Oh, fine. You go and then I'm second. Oh, that's really nice. Okay. Okay, this is how we'll do it. From the pile, it'll be Claudia gets to pick one thing, then Ella gets to pick, then Claudia gets to pick.

So then you guys, you know. That's fair. You can fight it out. All right. And then you guys can come to my house and go through my wardrobe. Will do. Yeah, I will You can have anything you want TV

No that's not in the wardrobe Imagine the day That you have a TV in your wardrobe That means you have made it Why would it be in the wardrobe? Why would it be in the wardrobe? Because your wardrobe is big enough Would you hang out in it? Would you hang out in the wardrobe? Why would it be in the wardrobe? Because your wardrobe is big enough. Yeah.

Or that you double the size. Would you hang out in it? Would you hang out in the wardrobe? What about the Kardashians? They have like full- You spent a few years in the wardrobe, didn't you? Clint. That was not a wardrobe.

It was a closet. It was way smaller. The Kardashians have like a full lounge and like carpet. But that's like their glam room, isn't it? That's where they get- No, that's a separate room. Oh, yeah, that's another one. They have a separate room, a whole room just for glam.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not opposed to a TV in the wardrobe. My parents built a massive wardrobe. I just don't know what I would watch in there. Yeah. I'd be too hot. I don't watch breakfast news or anything. I think if you're a real busy person and you had to put your suits on

and you wanted to watch the business news or some shit like that, that would make sense. It could be just a quiet place to get away from everyone else. It's wanted to watch the business news or some shit like that that would make sense but it could be just a quiet place to get away from everyone else where you watch the scandalous stuff like the Kardashians

oh and you can dress up as them I'd love to see inside one of their wardrobes oh my gosh same I'd love to just go in and have a look

yeah 30 seconds to grab whatever you want and 30 seconds to grab all their shit what do you think their house smells like? I reckon it smells really strong

I reckon it would smell so nice Did you see those really depressing photos of Kim's house in the news last week? Yeah, I mean her houses look like that for so long And I think it was Kanye's influence Kanye influenced her You know what's so interesting about watching the latest kardashian um episodes episodes i mean not much because they're pretty fucking horrible if you ask me um they just concentrate on the worst things i think in the last couple episodes but anyway the interesting part is seeing kim talk about her relationship with kanye and how controlling

he was and how judgmental he was of her, where he'd be like, you're not wearing that. And he would pretty much control what she would wear. She also credits him, though, with creating her fashion empire. Like he. Yeah, but it's not. She does. It's toxic, though.

Yeah, but she talks about how she taught him. He taught her about fashion. Yeah, but then it gets to a point where it's like. Yeah, but not in a healthy way. No. Okay. I don't think so. Yeah, like some of the stuff that she mentions. Don't get me wrong.

I'm not out here defending Kanye West. I was going to say, not the time to be defending Kanye West, but hey, you do you, boo. Whatever you want to do. Clearly haven't picked the right time. He did put her on though though, in fashion circles. He did. She was already massive.

She did not need him. She was. Not in fashion circles, though. She would have gotten there eventually. She's got a model sister. She would have found it either way. But yeah, Kanye, blech. And what Ella said, and I'll leave it there.

Have a good one. Nice recovery. I'm coming in. Well, howdy, pilgrim. Good evening, everybody. Welcome to the show. It's Bree and Clint. Happy hump day, everyone. Happy hump day everyone.

Happy hump. We are not far from Christmas now. 18 days. Oh, I'm getting really, I'm getting into that area where I'm really nervous about Christmas presents I've ordered and they haven't come yet. Because you're going home for Christmas to Australia. When do you leave? The 17th.

So they really need to get here before you go. So like one of the presents, because I got my brother, because we just do Secret Santa in our immediate family so that you don't have to buy a present for everyone because it's too expensive. Yeah. And I got my brother this year and I got him a gift that I ordered because I double checked.

I ordered on the 12th of last month. Right, okay. So now I'm getting worried. So, yeah, okay. That's less than a month to arrive. I know that's a long time, but why didn't you order them directly to your parents' house? Yeah, well, that would have been a good idea. Because then you wouldn't have had to

put them in your luggage as well. You would have just, they could have just been there. Oh, it's small. Yeah, why didn't you just order it to your parents' house? Because I thought I had heaps of time. I ordered it on the 12th of November. Yeah, right. I had a lamp show up today

that I purchased in late October. Oh, no. Yeah. Because I double checked. Now I'm at that stage where I'm going into the tracking the shipping

and seeing what's going on. And you email the company and they're overrun with emails and they don't get back to you and then you start going, did I order off a scam website? I've had all those thoughts. So apparently, if you want the update, I ordered it on the 12th. Nothing happened until the 4th of December.

Okay. It didn't even get shipped until the 4th of December. They shipped it on the 4th of December. What was the item? Well, I can't say. My brother listens to this podcast. Does he? Yeah.

Still? Sometimes. After all the stuff we've said about him? Sometimes he listens, but it's a... Tell me what it is off air and I'll react for you live. Okay. So we're going to turn Bree off so you guys won't hear what her brother Aidan's getting for Christmas.

What did you get him? Oh yeah, I know that. No, no, that's for someone else. Oh, it's a different one. A different one. Oh yeah. Which, what type? I've seen this on TikTok.

Yes. This thing looks so good. Yes. Yeah, yeah, okay, you're right. Producer Ella, have you seen it too? I would not have believed it was from a legitimate company though. Like it looks like,

it looks like a TikTok company to me. Has anyone ever ordered stuff off TikTok and it's come and it's been good? Yeah, you bought that eyeball stencil that time. That's right. And look how that turned out. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. Tradies versus ladies.

Double points is the word on the street, and they'd be right. The tradies sitting on 110, the ladies on 91. Let's go to our lady first. She is in Tamaki Makaurau. She is 38 years old, and she works for a government organisation. Ooh, sounds very secretive, Chrissie.

G'day, Chrissie. You guys aren't allowed to talk much about your government jobs, are you? No, not really. Sounds very men in black, like you've got one of those things that will erase our memory. Not so much, but yeah, it's a pretty good organisation. Okay, that's good.

That's good. Glad to hear it. Do you get to keep those memory erasers once you leave? I don't think we get any. And that big tall alien that makes the coffee in the staff room, is he still there as well, the skinny one? once you leave? I don't think we get any space. And that big tall alien that makes the coffee in the staff room, is he still there as well?

The skinny one? Oh, I haven't seen him for a while. Yeah, right. Okay. You're almost giving away too much information. He got made redundant

last year. Budget cuts, COVID. You're taking on our tradie today. He's in Christchurch. He's 21 and he can lift twice his body weight.

Welcome to the show, Brad. Brad, I'm going to wait to be impressed because you could weigh like 10 kilos. How much do you weigh? 87. Okay. I'd be impressed if a 10 kilo person could lift 20 kgs.

Well, you knew what I meant. No, I'm just saying I've met a few 10 kilo people and if they lifted a 20 kg weight, I'd be fairly impressed. You mean children. Yeah, babies. Okay, Brad, your buzzer is tradie. Chrissy, yours is lady.

First three gets 50 bucks from KFC. Good luck. Here we go, guys. Question number one. It's 18 days until Christmas. Which of the following is not another name for Santa? Saint Nick, Papa Noel, Babbo Natale. Yes, Chrissy.

Baby. Yeah. Papa Noah. No. We haven't even finished giving all the options yet. Sorry. Let me finish. Papa Noel, Babbo Natale or Fatai Cristo.

Jodie. Brad. Is it the third one? No. Chrissie. Lady Balassa? Yes. That is the one.

Yes. Babbo Natale is Italian for Santa. Yeah. There we go. One to the ladies. Question number two. Name one country that the Amazon River flows through. Tradi.

Yes, Brad. Brazil. Well done. Nice work, Brad. You're on the board. One apiece. Question number three. Buzz in, guys, when you can tell me who sings this song.

I love it when you call me. Brad. Swimming did. Yeah, well done. We also would have accepted Camila Cabello. Question number four, two to the tradies, one to the ladies. Which British singer cancelled her Vegas residency at the beginning of this year?

Yes, Chrissy. Adele. Yeah. Nice work. We are all tied up here this afternoon. This is for the win. Question number five. Which singer this year tried to rebrand herself as the Queen of Christmas?

Freddie. Brad. Brad for the win. Was it Camilla Cabello? No. No, but yeah, she has got that Christmas song out. She's the Queen of Christmas. Christmas.

All right, Chrissy, for the win. All right, Carrie. She's got it. She's got it. You don't want a lot for Christmas. There is just one thing. Well done, Chrissy. You've won yourself $50 cash from KFC and, more importantly,

double points for the ladies in Trading vs. Lady. Thank you. What a game. Nice work, Chrissy. Bree and Clint. It is dumping season. December is the most popular month for relationships to end. December 11 is the most common date for that to go down.

I'm just, I'm very intrigued as to how they collate this data. Where are they getting it from? I don't know, but are you feeling secure? Are you feeling all good in your relationship? I'm just saying it's on Sunday. Well, what about you? Well, I've got a contract. It's much more of a burden to leave me.

I mean, I was going to say, you should be asking your wife. She's the one that's more likely to break up with you. Oh, I'm not going anywhere. Don't worry about that. You're asking the wrong person. It'd be more her side, yeah. We've asked, are you planning on breaking up with someone in dumping season?

Are you willing to share that with us? Or have you just been dumped in dumping season? Our first call's a little bit different. They want to remain anonymous, but their partner broke up with them on Boxing Day because Christmas felt too mean, Anonymous. Yep, at 7 o'clock in the morning over text. Anonymous, had you seen this person the day before on Christmas?

No. So we spent like a few days apart. We saw each other on like the 21st, 22nd, did the exchange of gifts. What was the gifts, Anonymous? Great question. I got a dress that didn't fit so I had to then return it to him when we did the awkward post-breakup

meet up. Did you get a receipt? No, I never got anything. You just gave the dress back. What did you give him? Oh God, it was a few years ago now I couldn't tell you. It was good though it was better than a dress. That's what I was asking. I love the idea of softening the blow by waiting till after Christmas.

Like, it makes no difference. It could have done it on the 21st or the 22nd, but obviously you just thought about it for one day and was like, oh, wait till tomorrow. Great point. What's the window? Because you can't do it on Christmas, and you shouldn't do it on Boxing Day.

That's too close to Christmas. And you can't do it on Christmas Eve. So what's the block out? Is it 24, 25, 26? No dumping allowed on those days? I just, oh, that's awkward. I don't know. Anonymous, would you rather Christmas Eve, Christmas Day or Boxing Day?

Oh, well, it's hard because either way you're spending time with family. So there's that. But then you're just going to be crying all the time and it's awkward, you know. I reckon as long as you're like annual leave or like the shutdown period of your job, no break-up. You're on holiday. Right, no break-ups on holiday.

Anonymous, I went away on a family Christmas holiday trip, not my family, my partner's, and one of the people in the family, there was a break- breakup on Christmas Eve. Yeah. And it was horrible. Christmas Day. It ruined it for everyone.

Yeah, yeah. It ruined it for everyone. If you're all staying in the same house. We could just hear the person wailing from the room. Like, it was just horrible. Well, I'm sorry. You know what? It gets worse.

It gets worse. So my mum ended up texting him at New Year's being like, you've ruined our family holiday. How dare you? It was so embarrassing. Shut up texting him at New Year's being like, you've ruined our family holiday. How dare you? It was so embarrassing. She loves you, but really, what is she going to achieve with that? He's going to go, oh.

Nothing, it just made it worse. Sorry, I'll go out with her again. Dumping cancelled. Thanks, Anonymous. Kate's here. Hi, Kate. Hi, Kate. Hiya.

What's the deal? Are you breaking up with someone this dumping month? No, a friend of mine just got dumped. You're kidding. So what was the situation? How long had they been together? So it was 10 years. Wow.

10 years. And did she see it coming? Well, she's actually moving away overseas for a job. And it's, you know, something was bubbling up. It was make or break time for their relationship. Yeah, and partner was on board for the majority of the time and something obviously clearly happened. Ten years.

I'm going to get full of details. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That'll be a good one to talk about over Christmas drinks. Yeah, yeah. God, she is going to have the good one to talk about over Christmas drinks. Yeah. Oh. She is going to have the best summer of her life. Ten years. She would have never been on dating apps.

No. Never. She missed the whole thing. Her mind is going to be blown. Finally, Petra, are you planning on breaking up with someone before Christmas? I kind of actually got forced into it just after Christmas. I was a flight attendant, so I had to sing Christmas overseas in Melbourne, and I got back a couple days after. And one of my mates came to me and she was like,

I've just got to give you a heads up. Your boyfriend actually slept with some of our other mates on Christmas Eve at like the local club party. On Christmas Eve? Yeah, he went and cheated on me. How long had you been together? I love that you're laughing about it. It's funny now.

It's funny to look back now. We'd been together like a year and a half. Yeah, wow. What a loser. Yeah, so Christmas Eve and when he got sloshed at the local pub and was like, oh wow. It might not be his fault.

Someone might have hung some mistletoe over him and that girl. Yeah, that totally gives him a free pass to then fall into her. It's never their fault. It might have been mistletoe hanging above her bed. You never know. Yeah, never their fault, Petra. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio.

This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean's here. Lady Gaga's dogs that are being stolen. That was a huge story. And the ransom that they asked for, the person responsible has just had their sentence handed down, Dean. They have. So you might recall, of course, in the middle of the night,

Lady Gaga's dog walker got shot by a man and their other accomplices took off and stole two of the dogs. Well, the man who shot the dog walker has just received a sentence of 21 years in jail. 21 years in jail for attempted murder. Yep. There's obviously there were four other people involved. They're still to be sentenced. A couple of interesting facts about this story though. So obviously that guy's going away for 21 years. Interesting facts. That guy who's going away for 21 years back in April, they accidentally released him from jail.

They released him from jail accidentally and they had to go and re-arrest him. I'm not kidding. Another fun fact about this story, the lady who returned the two dogs, remember Lady Gaga said, oh, I'm going to give 500 grand to whoever finds them. This random lady goes to the police and says, I've found two dogs on the street. They were tied against a wall. Are these Lady Gaga's dogs? She is one of the accomplice, and she actually got them all busted.

That's how they connected. So she actually got them all handed in. She took the bait, Dean. She took the bait. She took the bait. And the final thing is that they actually did not know it was Lady Gaga's dog because they just thought they were a very expensive dog on the, I guess, what do you call it, black market?

Really? That's the story. She, so the woman that allegedly found the two dogs and we turned out was one of the, you guess, what do you call it, black market? Really? That's the story. She, so the woman that allegedly found the two dogs and we turned out was one of the, you know, thefts. She is going to be up for attempted murder, like an accessory to attempted murder. So she's going to jail as well. What kind of psychopaths shoot somebody for dogs,

especially when you didn't even, like when they were Lady Gaga's dogs, I kind of thought, oh yeah, maybe they think they can get a big ransom or something. A lot of money. They were willing to shoot somebody for some random dogs. I feel like that sentence is spot on because, yeah, he shot someone. 21 years.

Yeah. He shot someone who nearly died for a bloody pair of dogs. There you go. It's the latest live out of Los Angeles with our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy. Bree and Clint. Please welcome back to the Airwaves, Zidium's own resident psychic.

Bree's Psychic Radio. Oh, thank you so much for having me. It's good to be back. Is this psychic appropriation? Are we going to get cancelled for this? No, I believe that I can actually do this. Okay, so long as you believe it. I've got crystals at home.

That's the truth. I have owned tarot cards from time to time in my life. That's the truth. And I do sync up with other ladies sometimes that I've lived with. So technically, that's also the truth. Today, our resident psychic is going to use her abilities to determine whether you are packing a real Christmas tree, a fake plastic Christmas tree, or no Christmas tree at all. Correct. We thought there's possibly a fourth category, which could be Christmas tree alternative.

Nah, too hard. Too hard? So that falls in the no Christmas tree category. That's a no Christmas tree. That's a no Christmas tree. Yeah. Okay, let's start with Marie. Hi, Marie.

Hi, Marie. Hi, Marie. You're on with psychic Brie. Oh my God, how cool. Welcome, Marie. Hi, Marie. You're on with Psychic Bree. Oh, my God. How cool. Welcome, Marie. Congratulations on the recent job promotion. Oh, yeah. I took a stab.

I took a stab. If that had pulled up, I would have been seriously impressed. That was so worth a go. Imagine if Marie would have been like, oh, my God, how did you know that? Marie, my one question for you is, like, have you ever owned a candle with the pine scent? No.

They're good, those candles. They are nice. Akoya do a good one. No, I don't have a pine-scented candle. Marie, do you have any animals or small children in your house? I sure do. I'm going to say fake Christmas tree for Marie. Yes.

Well, she's one from one. And also, good luck with that new job in the new year, Marie. Yes. Well, she's one from one. And also, good luck with that new job in the new year, Marie. Yeah, okay. Should have gone out on a high. Should have left it. Thank you, Marie. Let's go straight to Sarah, who's on the line. Sarah, you're on with ZM's resident psychic, Brie Tomasell.

Hi, Sarah. How are you? I'm really good. I'm so glad to see that you are moving on from that recent breakup of yours. Sure. Recent. Took another stab.

Last 12 months. No. Your last five years? Sure. We can go with last five years. Yeah, nice. Sarah, same question. Do you have any animals or small children that live in your home?

I have quite a lot of children and have a cat. When you say quite a lot of children, how many? You're the psychic. You tell her. I'm going to say four. Yeah, you tell her. More than that. Five?

We have five children, yeah. Five children and a cat. Wowza. And soon to be a dog. No. No. No, Sarah. No.

There's a whole lot of energy happening in your house. It is. It is. Sarah, would you say you're a big Christmas person? Do you love Christmas? Absolutely not. No Christmas tree? This is a hard one because last year was a no Christmas tree

and this year we're going back to the Christmas tree. I'm trying to be less of a Grinch. But have you got it up right now? No. I'm going to give that to you, Brie. That's a win. She can only channel what's in your house. She can't predict your future.

Okay, Hayley. It's just the present. She's quite a limited psychic in that sense. Okay, two from two. Let's go to Hayley. Hi, Hayley. Hi, Hayley. Hi, guys.

You are on with ZM's one and only psychic, who today, she's in tune. I am quite locked in. Yeah. Loaded, ready to go. She must have cleaned out her karma cave last night. Hayley, say hello to your boyfriend, Troy, for me. Hey, Troy.

You don't actually have a boyfriend called Troy, do you? No, but I'm just saying, as Brie said. Oh, you're trying to manifest a boyfriend called Troy by going along with what Brie said. I see what you're doing. Yes, Hayley. Hayley, how many people do you currently live with? So there's only two of us in our household at the moment.

Just you and someone else? Yes. Okay. Flatmate? Partner? Yes, flatmate. Flatmate? Partner? Yes, flatmate. Flatmate? Okay, cool.

Whereabouts are you spending Christmas this year? I'll be spending it at home with the family. So I'll have visitors and guests. So not the house you're living in, but going to the family home? Yes. She's got no Christmas tree. Hayley?

Oh, can she go three from three? I actually have a Christmas tree. So my Christmas tree is made out of toy toy. I have pre-made my Christmas tree. She's sitting beautifully in the corner of my living room and she's all white and crispy. So she's real but she's bright. It isisbee. So she's real, but she's grey. It is a beautiful, I think it's a beautiful Christmas tree.

For me, it falls into a Christmas tree alternative, though. Which is? Which we said at the start goes in the no Christmas tree category, which means it's three from three. Three from three. We got it, Hayley. We got it. And good luck.

The New Year's kiss will be a man named Troy. She's in shock. She just can't handle it. She's like, what just happened? She can't handle all that information.

She's like, no, I told you I have a Christmas tree. It's made of toy toy. Bree and Clint. Oh, what a win. I reckon that's probably a good place to end the psychic.

I think we should just end it there. Yeah, just go there. I think a lot of people think we should end it there. I've just found out some really bad news. What? Someone on the text machine kindly informed me

that apparently the director, Nancy Myers, has posted and said, these are just rumours. We're not making a sequel. To the holiday. I am ropeable. I appreciate the people texting through. I hadn't seen that.

Did you spread fake news? Well, I didn't mean to. It was posted yesterday. Did you do a full boom? Have you been getting your news off Facebook? I'm so upset. Like, haven't we been through enough? Who is starting

that vicious rumour and getting all of our hopes up to then knock it down? It could be a big PR stunt because you create the hype with rumours that the holiday with Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz is going to get a sequel. And then you shut the rumours down and you go,

and you've tested the market. And then boom, you hit them with the actual news that it is coming out next Christmas. Well, I do hope so. Apparently Kate Winslet has also commented because she's promoting the new Avatar film at the moment. Is she in that? Yeah.

Is she? Yeah. And she has said, no one has contacted me about this. But then she also kind of was like, Keen. Would be keen. So you never know. She's like, please don't make me do all this blue makeup again.

I've had enough of Avatar. You never know. Hey, anyway, we're going to- The question stands. We're going to press on. Yes. Because we have asked you guys, in the hope that they were going to make a sequel to The Holiday, what is a sequel that was better or just as good as the original? Ruse is here.

Kia ora, Ruse. Hi, Ruse. Hey, how's it going? Good, thanks. What do you reckon? What movie? Bad Boys 2. Yeah.

Yeah, that was just as good. Will Smith. So many quotes from that movie you can say off my heart, but it's such a fantastic movie I can watch again. Martin Lawrence. Is that the one where he shows up to the door and he wants to date his daughter and Will Smith answers the door? Exactly the one. Yeah, that is perfect.

It's the one where he has the Ferrari. Yeah. And he shoots the dashboard of the Ferrari. That's very good. Someone texted and they said well guys, you're missing an obvious one. What about Shrek 2? And then I saw her face. Great film, great signal.

I have to agree. Yeah, we'd have to agree. The first one was so high up there, so it had a lot of expectation, but it was pretty good. Terminator 2 is coming through a lot. Yeah. Apparently Terminator 2 is better than Terminator 1. I haven't seen Terminator 2, but Terminator 1 I loved.

Yeah, very good. Is Avatar 2 going to be better than Avatar 1? Has to be. It literally has to be. A lot of people texting through about Top Gun Maverick. No, no, no, no, no, no. What? It's not better than the original.

It's just as good. Oh, okay, yeah, sorry. We did say just as good or better. I would agree. It is just as good than the original. It's just as good. Oh, okay. Yeah, sorry. We did say just as good or better. I would agree. It is just as good as the original. Someone else texted through just now, Deadpool 2. Yeah, it is a very good film. Someone else texted through. This is probably, yeah, a very good one because it's also a Christmas movie.

Home Alone 2. Oh, Home Alone 2, spot on. It was very good. Let's go to Corinne. Hi, Corinne. Hi, Corinne. How's it going? Good, thank 2, spot on. It was very good. Let's go to Corinne. Hi, Corinne. Hi, Corinne. Kia ora, how's it going? Good, thank you, Corinne.

What do you think? Sequel just as good, if not better than the original? Definitely Wayne's World 2. Wayne's World 2. Yes. That's the one that got Bohemian Rhapsody back into the charts, isn't it? Yes. I can't sit here and be honest and say I've seen it.

I've seen the original. Very good. Oh, the second's way better. Okay. I'll put it on my list then, Corinne. Yeah. Thanks, Corinne. Definitely.

Thanks, Corinne. Of course, so many great texts coming through. Someone else said Back to the Future 2 and Back to the Future 3. They were all great. I haven't seen them, but what about Legally Blonde 2? I can't remember it. Then it wasn't. If you can't remember it, then it wasn't better than the original.

Someone said both Mamma Mia's are just as good as each other. Someone said Magic Mike XXL. Well, it was. It was XXL. So, it was. It was XXL. So, of course, it was going to be better. What else is coming through? A lot of people texting through. Old movies.

Indiana Jones. The Hangover Part 2. No. No. The one in Thailand. The one in Thailand. No. No.

No? Are you scratching that one off the list? It's the same jokes. It's the same thing. It's the same thing. Someone said Ted 2. The teddy bear one with Mark Wahlberg. Yeah, someone else said. Did they make a sequel to that?

They did. I've watched it. We had a lot of texts for Pitch Perfect. I just wonder if these people have actually seen Pitch Perfect 2. Pitch Perfect 1 was such a great film. Pitch Perfect 2? Pitch Perfect 1 was such a great film. Pitch Perfect 2. Bridget Jones' Diary has come up a lot, and I have to admit, both great.

And they brought it back for another one, Bridget Jones' Baby. Yeah, was that good? Yeah, pretty good. All pretty good. It's time for Google Down. Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down? What the hell?

I think Google's actually the Christmas edition where we find out who is the fastest Googler. Producer Claude, did she honour you one last week or was it Producer Claude? I think I won. I think it was you. Yeah, I think I won. I'm going to rub it in.

Sorry, Claude. Hey, there's time for redemption right won. Yeah. I think it was you. Yeah, I think I won. Way to rub it in. Yeah. Sorry, Claude. Hey, there's time for redemption right now. I've had such a great week just walking around Auckland. People have been like, Clint, is it true? And I'm like, yeah, it's true. Yeah, it happened.

When we were in the Mount for Friday Oaky, people were like queued up. You really the greatest Googler in New Zealand? I was like, yeah. I used to get that. Yeah. No more. Oh, Claude. He's throwing it down. I used to get that. Yeah. No more. Oh, Claude.

He's throwing it down. That's the mana that a Googledown victory can bring. But both of you are going to have to beat Jay. G'day, Jay. Hey, guys. How's it going? Good, thank you, Jay. You're a fast Googler?

I hope so. Yeah. Good. We're about to find out. Here's the rules, guys. So it'll be our team here in the studio and Jay. I will read out a question. I've put this exact question into Google,

and I'm looking for the first and most common answer that comes up on Google. If you are the first person to yell out the correct answer, you get a point. First to three points wins the game. Got it. All right, is everyone ready? Yes. I'm good to go.

I will remind you, this is the Christmas edition of Google Down. Here we go, question number one. How old is Santa Claus? How old? 1751. I'm going to say Jay just finished before Claudia. It was very close, though. Very close. They kind of both start at the same time. I'm going to say Jay just finished before Claudia. It was very close, though.

Very close. They kind of both start at the same time. Jay just got in. What was the answer? 1,751 years old. Man, he old ass. That is an old beard. All right, question number two.

It's an old sack. Imagine the food that would be in that beard. One to Jay. He slid down a lot of chimneys. All right, enough. What year did the movie Die Hard come out? 1984. 1988.

That's correct, producer Ella. Nice work. Thank you. Very quick. It came out in the 80s. Yeah, it was an 80s film. All right, one to Jay, one to Ella. You'd know that if you Googled it fast enough.

You'd know that if you actually got it right. Well, I didn't Google it. I tried to freeball it. Okay. There's beef here. We both have no points. We can't be smack talking. Just the two bottom of the run players just duking it out for last. Question number three.

Which one of Santa's reindeer is the oldest? Which one of the reindeer? Dasher. Blitzen. That is right, Claude. Dasher. Correct. That means you get a point.

Ella's got a point. Jay's got a point. Clint has no points. You got no points. Dasher is 80 human years old. If you don't get this one, Clint, you are out of the game. Question number four. How much money has the song All I Want For Christmas Is You made to date?

How much money? 2.5 million. 80 million. 80 million. Producer Ella on the board. That means Clint is out of the game. It is between Ella, Claude and Jay. What happened to the mana, Clint?

From the penthouse to the shithouse. I've gone from first to last. Two to Ella, one to Claude, one to Jay. Here comes question number five. And by the way, yeah, $80 million at least in royalties. Question number five. Where was eggnog invented? Where was eggnog invented? Where was eggnog invented?

Britain. I will take that. It was invented in England, apparently. No one knows the exact origins, but that is a point to Claude. I couldn't spell it, damn it. You couldn't spell eggnog? No, it's because you've taken your glasses off. All right, two to Ella, two to Claude, one to Jay.

Question number six. Who is Santa's best friend? Who is Santa's... Roven? That was so close. I'll have to give it to producer Claude. Roven is correct. Who's Roven?

Roven is an Italian sheepdog. Apparently Santa's best friend. Look up the tail. That's what Google says, which means producer Claude is back on top. Are you cutting off my glory, Clint? No, I'm giving you time to give your victory speech. Thank you. You're wasting it.

I want to thank Clint for losing as hard as he You're wasting it. I want to thank Clint for losing as hard as he did. Yeah. And I want to thank Jay for being there for me. Yeah, I want to thank Jay too and I'm going to thank you with 50 KFC chicken dollars, Jay. Thanks for playing, mate. Was catching up with a friend and she was telling me about her wedding because it

was in the past three years. I obviously couldn't attend. Pretty much no one could attend. And she told me that she had a reaction to something in the food, had to have an EpiPen, and never got to consummate the marriage. Yeah, ripped off. Devo. Yeah.

And so we're asking you this afternoon on 0800DIALZM, what stopped you from consummating the marriage? Yeah, making it official official. You know, you've signed the legal documents. You know. Now sign the physical documents. Take your pen out. Well, how did you break the champagne bottle on the side of the boat?

You know what I'm saying? Christen the ship. Hannah's here. Hi, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. Hey. What prevented you and your loved one from making it official on the wedding night? You know what the sucky thing is, right? We've been talking about

this while we've been on hold and he's still sour about it. Oh my God, amazing. No, so many years later, he's like I'm not having a part in that. No, I still don't agree. Like, we're still married. Like, honestly, it's fine. How long have you been married?

How long have you been married? We've been together for nine years. Heaps of time. Nine years and he's not over it. Oh, my God. You know. All right. He needs to get out.

No, wait. Wait, wait, wait. Everyone stop. Hannah, what exactly happened and why is he so salty? We need to know. Right. So, we had like a role, like a proper Kiwi wedding, like a proper Kiwi wedding.

We had it in the backyard. We had subway planners, KFC bucket. Jandals? Like, yeah, no, no, I wore jandals. Yeah, great. That's what I was saying. A proper Kiwi wedding. We had the whole thing and then like it was fine.

And then I got like obviously far too drunk. My poor mother, like she drove us both to the motel in Hamilton City Centre and like it just gets classier. I love it. And then yeah, I got that drunk that my poor husband had to put me in

the spa bath. It was like scalding hot, like so hot I didn't even feel it. And then he pulled me out of the bath and then put me in bed to sleep while he watched Titanic. Oh my god! Hey, not a bad night. It was the only thing

on the channel on TV in the most part it's not my fault. It was a bad time. Yeah, he didn't bring any DVDs. He wasn't planning on watching any TV. Oh, if I bought DVDs it probably would have been The Hobbits. Titanic is a great, I mean, a little bit dark on your wedding night. Maybe the notebook would have been more fitting. I love that he's still not over it nine years later.

He's like, no, I don't want to talk about it, babe. I want to talk about it. Ruby's here. Hi, Ruby. Hi, Ruby. Hello, how's it going? Good, thanks. Ruby, what was the reason you couldn't consummate the marriage, mate?

So we had a big night, as the last caller did. So luckily I didn't feel it, but I cut my elbow open on a broken wine glass. How bad are we talking? Well, so my inebriated friend bandaged me up, and I went to the A&E the next day, and it turns out I needed four stitches. Oh, jeez. Blood on the wedding dress?

No, surprisingly, I think it cut through to a bit that didn't bleed, which is probably concerning. Oh, yeah. You've cut through to the fatty part. Yeah. Yeah. You've gone down. I love when people are,

I think that might be fat there, and that's muscle. You've cut through to the muscle, guys. Is that all the drunk people? We're going to consummate this thing, and you're like, what do you mean? I've cut myself down to the bone. My weenus is hanging out. All right, Ruby, thank you very much. Anonymous is here.

Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi. Tell us. We get to know people very well. This is very intimate, this conversation. It's actually very enlightening. Anonymous, tell us, why couldn't you consummate the marriage, mate?

There's nothing that will put you off more than hearing your sister and the groomsman go at it while you're all trying to have drinks after the wedding. Wait, in the next room? Are we talking? We were all drinking, yeah, in the next room.

They were, there was, yeah. Bumpin' uglies. Yeah, yeah. Nothing more awkward than my dad shaking his hand to say goodbye the next day, that's for sure. Oh, he heard it too. Was this a new relationship that had been formed at the wedding? Your sister and one of your partner's groomsmen?

Yes, yep. So she was the maid of honour. So she was really excited. He was the groomsman and he had previously been with one of our other wedding guests the night before. So all class. He had a bit of history there. Okay.

Yes. I'd be ropeable if I was you, Anonymous. I'd be so dark on them. Yeah, well, it's good ammunition for any future issues with her. Totally. Remember that night that you ruined for me? I can't wait for her wedding, that's for sure. Hey, do you remember that night that you consummated my wedding?

I'm going to consummate your wedding now. I love it, Anonymous. With one of the groomsmen? You're like, I'm going to get in a joining room wedding now. I love it. With one of the groomsmen? No, with my husband. I'm going to get in a joining room and I'm going to keep the joining door open. And I'm going to make Dad listen as well. Oh no, hang on, it's getting weird now. No, please no.

Poor Dad. Thanks Anonymous, great story. Not even, I mean, bad on your wedding night, just bad in general. Bad in general. Bree and Clint. Hey. It's my birthday.

It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's birthday banger. All right, here we go. Three people. What were the songs that were number one on their 16th birthdays? Well, stick around if you like a throwback because we're going to play one out in full. Let's start with Shania. Hello, Shania. G'd start with Shania. Hello, Shania.

G'day, Shania. Hi. Are you named after the one, the only Shania Twain? Yes, I am. Oh, that's great. I love it. Do you like Shania Twain's music? I love her music.

Well, that's lucky then, eh? Who doesn't? But, you know, there's no guarantee. Yeah. Because everyone's into something different. But I mean... Imagine you named your kid Shania and then the first time you put on Man, I Feel Like a Woman and they're like... I would love to talk to someone.

Like, when that song gets going, are you with me, Shania? Yeah. It is... Let's go, girls. Does that not evoke just pure joy in you? It really does. Let's go, girls. It's one of the greatest openings to a song ever.

Text us if you genuinely don't like that. Like, truly, though. Yeah, yeah. Anyway, it's about you right now, Shania. Not that, Shania. What's your birthday? 8th of May, 2005. Right, Shania.

That means you were 16 just last year in 2021. And on your 16th birthday, this would have been number one. Let's go, girls. What are the chances, Shania? She's laughing. She knows it's all... You guys are full of crap. Just kidding, it's this.

Ariana Grande in The Weeknd. Save Your Tears. Do you like it? I do like it, yes. Yeah, it's good. It's a bit of a tune, bit of a vibe. Wait there, Shania. Let's go to Jen. G'day, Jen. Hiya. I believe you're doing this for your partner, Robert. Yes, he's driving. Oh, Jen. Hiya. I believe you're doing this for your partner, Robert. Yes, he's driving.

Oh, lovely. Okay, well, Robert. Hi, Robert. G'day, Robert. Hi. There he is. Let me concentrate. All right, Jen, what is Rob's birthday?

The 22nd of October, 1981. All right, that means Robert was 16 in 1997. Let me take you back, Rob, to your 16th birthday. This was number one. I don't know the world. Every boy and every girl. Baker! Oh! Something's in the lead.

Spice Girls! Shake it to the front. Gina, is that a bit of Rob? It definitely is. Crack it up laughing. Yes, Rob, I know you. Shake it to the front. Gina, is that a bit of Rob? It definitely is cracking up laughing. Yes, Rob, I know you shake it to the front. Okay, wait there. Such a good one. One more for Catherine.

Kia ora, Catherine. Hi, Catherine. Hi. How are you, mate? I'm good. That's good to hear. Catherine, when's your birthday? 27th of December, 1986.

Oh, that's coming up very quick, Catherine. You were 16 in 2002. And, Catherine, here's your birthday banger. Banger. Banger. The catch-up song, Catherine. Oh, my gosh, I remember that. It was massive, a global hit.

It was. Ella's already started doing jump jam out in the producer's booth. It's going off. But is it enough to win? Oh, that's a good question. Wait there, Catherine. I feel like we're going to spice up Rob's life. You know me. I feel like we're going to spice up Rob's life. You know me.

I feel like we're about to spice up Rob's life. It's very hard to sway me from the Spice Girls. I'm going to spice up your life. That's my vote. Hey, Jen, is Rob there? Yeah, he is. Get ready to shake those buns, Robert. Can we get a girl power from Rob?

Oh, girl power? Yeah. That's Rob, you queen. There you go, everybody. Coming straight out of 1997. It's your birthday banger. When you're feeling sad and low We will take you where you gotta go

Brianne Clint. The spinoff have put out a list today of all the foods that have been discontinued in New Zealand in 2022. Le snacks. Le snacks. Lift. No. Oh. No. Oh.

Yeah. Did it? I'm pretty sure. It's not on the list. I'm pretty sure that was. Wasn't that a really, really strong rumor? And I wasn't sure if it came true. Is it?

I feel like it was discontinued this year. Oh, God, that makes it worse. I was about to say, when you look at all these things on paper, it looks like a really bad year. Yeah. So possibly add lift to it looks like a really bad year. Yeah. So possibly add Lyft to it. Okay, here we go. Ready to drink formats of Lyft

will be phased out in stores by the end of September 2022. It's gone. Yeah, I thought... Lyft is... I knew that. It's already gone. Which shows you how much we missed it, really.

It's been gone for three months and we didn't notice. I was kind of like, yeah. I think Lyft is one of those things. And actually, if we're being really honest, all of these things have been phased out for a reason. It's because people weren't buying them enough. So you might

remember them really fondly but were you really buying them? Does Lyft taste a bit flat to anyone? I can always taste it a little bit flat. I don't know, I haven't had one for 15 years. Yeah, that's probably why they phased it out. I never bought a can of Lyft, that's for sure. I would have had it out of the 2.25

litre bottle at a party, and by that stage, yeah, it was flat. You know where I always used to get Lyft? It was Red Rooster. They always used to have Lyft. Oh, yeah. If you went to Red Rooster. So let's get into this list of the things that have been discontinued food-wise in New Zealand in just 2022.

One of the most recent ones, Tip Top announcing Go goody-goody gumdrops and cookies and cream in the two-litre tubs, gone. Yeah. Yeah, you can still get it in the... You can still get it in the other ones. You can still get it in the dairy, so I'm actually kind of fine with that. That's fine. Two litres of goody-goody gumdrops actually seems like too much goody-goody gumdrops.

I just need a cone once a year probably. You don't even get it that often. No, I do. I do. I do. When I go to the beach, I will get myself a goody goody gumdrops. I love that you say. I'll send you a frigging photo.

You say. No, but this is so funny to me. You say goody goody gumdrops is my favorite all-time ice cream. I get it once a year. Yeah, that's how often I get ice cream. You have it more than once a year. Anyway, this is not about me, all right? Okay.

This is not about me. You've already touched on Le Snack. 34 years Le Snack existed in New Zealand and Australia. I am gutted about Le Snack. I still was eating Le Snacks. Were you? Yeah. You know where we would always get Le Snacks is when we would film Treasure Island or anything like with TV.

They'd always have snacks. Yeah. Like for people. Le Snacks. Yeah. And a lot of the time they were Le Snacks. You could have a Le Snack. It's gone.

It's dead. Gone. Nah. I hate it. You probably don't know this one, but Ernest Adams disappeared this year. It's like a Kiwi lunchbox favourite. They did like a jammy raspberry slice and they did the sultana loaf and they just

they were like a nice little thing to put in your lunchbox. Not the sultana loaf. Don't worry, you don't have to eat it. Sultanas need to get out of foods. Like get out of my bread. Get out of my scone. No, I'm down with it. Get out of my pudding. Get in my Christmas

cake. Stop putting sultanas into things. Well, you'll never have to have one because Ernest Adams is dead. Gone. Airwaves, the chewing gum. As a man who had problems breathing through his nose for most of my life, them removing airwaves seems weirdly personal. You know what the thing is about airwaves is I feel like every time I would chew it, it would deviate my septum.

It would be so strong. Too powerful, eh? It would just be like, whoa! I'd feel it up in my temple of my brain. Like, that's how strong it was. Do you remember the feeling if you accidentally put two airwaves in? Oh, my God. It would blow your ear canal out.

Well, don't worry about that. You'll never have to experience that again because airwaves are dead. Yeah, interesting. Starburst lollies. Yeah, I remember them talking about this one. What the hell? So there's still fruit bursts. Yeah, they were nothing to do with starbursts.

But no starbursts. Did you not have starbursts in Australia? Our starbursts look like your fruit bursts. Right, okay. I like the starbursts that you bit them in the gooey stuff, squirted it out from inside it. What were they called? Starbursts look like your fruit bursts. Right, okay. I like the starbursts that you bit them in the gooey stuff, squirted out from inside it. What were they called? Starburst somethings.

Juicy squirters, I think. And possibly the most controversial of all this year, Coca-Cola, who took away Lyft, also took away Coke Zero, which I don't personally care about. I care. But I know a lot of people do. I care deeply. They announced they were getting rid of Coke Zero and Coke No Sugar

and replacing it with Coke Zero Sugar. Honestly. Just to make things really frickin' confusing. Honestly, it's like Coke is me in my early 20s where I'm deciding on my sexuality.
