Welcome to the show, Patrick.
G'day, Patrick.
Woo! First time caller.
Yay!
First time caller. Let's go,o! First time caller! Yay!
Let's go Patrick!
Welcoming through!
Faster at the beds, faster at getting in that first time caller as well.
Are you running a top sheet Patrick?
I do now.
Yeah right and you're still fast at making the bed even with a top sheet.
What do you mean you do now? Is that after getting in a relationship?
After my new occupation, I would say.
Right, I was forced into a top sheet,
that's why I asked, in my relationship.
What's your occupation that requires you
to have a top sheet?
I work at the Top 10 Holiday Park.
Okay.
And why do you have to have a top sheet?
Because it's for the guests.
Some guests would rather sleep between the sheets than a sheet and a blanket.
Yeah right, but why are you in the guests' bed, Patrick?
Oh, I'm making the bed, so as soon as a guest checks out, I'm straight into making the bed.
I think he's talking about the beds he's making.
Yes, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.
Yeah, not necessarily his own bed.
Blue Lake, top ten?
That's the one.
That's the one.
I've heard good things about that place. Me too.
Really good things.
Patrick, your buzzer is Trady.
Esther, Ayla and Hayden, your buzzer is Lady.
The first of three correct answers is going to win.
Good luck guys.
Here we go.
Question number one.
What animal is known for its ability to change colour to match its surroundings?
Yes, Patrick.
Yes, Lady.
Patrick.
Chameleon.
Chameleon.
It is a chameleon.
Well done. Not to get mixed up with Charmeleon, Chameleon. It is a chameleon. Well done.
Not to get mixed up with Charmeleon, which is a Pokemon.
Correct.
Question number two.
What year was Taylor Swift born?
Was it 1987?
Yes.
Asta?
1989.
1989.
Well done.
She's all over it.
Well done.
We are one apiece.
Question number three.
Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this.
Trudy? Patrick? Taylor Swift? No. Peace. Question number three. Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this.
Patrick.
No. Worth a shot.
Do you want to have a guess, Esther?
Is that Olivia Rodrigo?
Well done.
Here she comes. Here she comes.
She's taken the lead. Two to the ladies, one to the tradies. Question number four. In the
nursery rhyme, who had a dog named Bingo? Bingo was his name-o.
Trady? Yes, Patrick.
Was it just a man? No.
We was just a man. It was, he was just a man. It was but we need a name Asta.
Was it Farmer? No.
Old MacDonald. Had a farm.
God you're kicking yourselves over that one I bet.
And on that farm he had a... no wait am I getting them confused?
There was a man who had a dog and Bingo was his name oh B-I-N-G-O B-I-N-G-O
B-I-N-G-O and Bingo was his name-o
Oh my god we've conflated two nursery rhymes
Old MacDonald had a farm
Wait how does Old MacDonald go?
Old MacDonald had a farm E-I-E-I-O
And on that farm he had a dog
E-I-O with a woof woof here woof woof there
Here a woof there a woof everywhere a woof woof Old MacDonald had a farm there, here a woof, there a woof, everywhere a woof woof.
Old MacDonald had a farm, EIEIO.
No mention of bingo whatsoever.
Wait, wait.
Yeah.
So then it was, there was a man, wasn't it?
Yeah, there was a man who had a farm.
Wait, I need to check now.
Technicality.
Yeah, technicality.
We're writing this question off guys, don't worry, no one's getting a point.
Oh.
Hold on.
Yes, according to the nursery rhyme, Old MacDonald had a farm, he did indeed have a point. Oh, hold on. Yes, according to the nursery rhyme,
Old MacDonald had a farm.
He did indeed have a farm.
No, we know that.
Yeah, he didn't have a dog called Bingo.
He had a dog and we don't know what his name was.
Where the hell did that question come from?
Okay, no points there.
We move on.
What's the score?
Claudia?
I'm confused.
Give me a second.
It's two to the ladies, one to the tradies.
That's correct.
We move on to question number five.
Where in the world would you find the Notre Dame Cathedral?
The lady.
Yes, Asta?
France.
France.
Yeah.
More specific.
Can you be more specific?
Paris.
Yes, you said Paris.
Yep.
That's the win.
And that's the win.
Yeah. Paris, yes you said Paris, yep. That's the win. And that's the win, yep. She's a lady, oh oh oh, she's a lady.
God, it was a well fought game from both parties on that game.
Patrick, I would understand if you feel a bit aggrieved after that, however it was fair
and square to Esther.
It was.
We mucked up the old McDonald question.
That is our bad.
That is our bad.
We'll take that one.
And she said France, not Paris. Yeah, and then we asked her to narrow it down to Paris. Yeah is our bad. That is our bad. We'll take that one. And she said France, not Paris.
Yeah and then we asked her to narrow it down to Paris. Yeah. Fair enough. Yeah.
We've got to give her the opportunity because technically she was correct. With France. Yeah.
Patrick gets E, he's a good bloke. All good Patrick. All righty. Oh I love you guys. Hey well done
Esther, Ayla and Hayden, your Tradeiverse Lady Champions. Woohoo! Thank you. We'll get that 50 bucks out here
and you can all split it three ways.
Amazing.
So good.
You're welcome.
ZM's Brie and Clint podcast.
We need to address this controversy
around Tradey vs Lady.
I feel like there's enough feedback that's come in
that we have to talk about it.
It was a controversial game of Tradey vs Lady.
You gotta give it that.
But I think at the end of the day it was fair and square.
We wrote off a question that was wrong on our part but people are upset
because the tradie technically got the answer right. But what we have done...
Okay I see what you're saying. What we have done is we've uncovered a potential
Mandela effect where if you, forget old McDonald, we asked
who had a farm with a dog named Bingo. He said a man, which works in the there was
a man who had a dog and Bingo was his name-o, but then our lady said a farmer.
Which is also right. Which is also right because some people say there was a farmer
had a dog and Bingo was his name-o. I grew up with the farmer version. Me too but I can hear the man version there
was a man who had a dog. Let me Google it. Yeah Google the lyrics to B-I-N-G-O. Oh good yeah
lyrics to P. Someone said that guy got the answer right you should give him a point. He said a man
which was your song. Okay. I'm a lady and I feel the tradie, you should give him a point. He said a man, which was your song.
Okay.
I'm a lady and I feel the tradie
should have got that question, he was right.
Being going, oh god, there's some other
song by Coco Melon in 2020.
Here's the thing though, if he had got that correct,
if we had given it to him, it would have taken it to two all
and then the lady still got the next question right.
So technically she still would have won.
She then went on to get the Notre Dame question correct.
Yes.
Oh guys.
It's not coming up.
It's good that people are so invested
in Tradeaverse Lady, and we do appreciate
being held to account like this.
I love how invested people are,
and we are just as invested,
can I say to you guys listening,
we want it to be as fair as
possible hence why we're talking about this now here we go I found some lyrics
to bingo there was a farmer so the lady was right there was a farmer had a dog
and bingo was his name according to these lyrics according to this this
website that is what the lyric is, farmer, hold on, here's another one, Wikipedia says
there was a farmer.
And one more website, one more website, there was a farmer.
So if we made it up that there's also a man version.
Well if we did, so did a lot of people on the text machine.
There must be a man version.
It's done, it's settled.
We have to go with the decision.
Just like the NRL, sometimes the refs muck up
but you've got to accept the result.
I've got to...
But text us on 9696.
Is it a farmer or a man that had a dog?
Here we go, I've got one from YouTube.
Whose name was Bingo?
This is from CocoMillen. Okay, Mellon okay although no they are the leading nursery rhyme
lyric writers
There was a farmer, had a dog and bingo. There was a farmer, had a dog and bingo.
Also farmer.
Mm.
Someone's always said is it farmer or man?
Someone's just texting, guys, it's a dog.
No, we know bingo is a dog.
Bingo's not in question here.
No, that's not what we were confused about.
Ha ha ha ha.
That is brinclent.
The tradie said man, which was technically correct,
but he wasn't given the opportunity
to specify his occupation, which was farmer.
But the lady said France,
and was given the opportunity to specify Paris.
Guys.
It is hated on the text machine.
Guys, we've figured out a solution,
and this probably still won't satisfy everybody.
We'll get him back tomorrow.
Oh, that's a good answer. Get him back tomorrow. Well. Well I was gonna say we give him KFC right now.
Our lady deserves her $50. Yeah she deserves it, she won it.
Yeah get him back tomorrow and we'll give him KFC. We'll give him KFC chicken dollars right now and
we'll get him back on to play tomorrow. Yeah. If Patrick is willing. Yeah. The fastest speed maker in the world.
If I know Patrick, he's a good bloke, he'll come back on. Also, just an update on Bingo, the nursery rhyme.
Is Bingo the name of the dog,
which obviously we all thought.
There was a farmer had a dog and Bingo was his name.
Is it the name of the dog or is it the name of the farmer?
It's the dog. How do you know? Well I think
there was a farmer, we don't know his name. You're not going to call a farmer Bingo. The farmer had
a dog. Bingo is a dog's name. And Bingo was his name-o. Where I grew up in country Queensland,
trust me, if I met a farmer and he said his name was Bingo I'd be like that checks out. Christ,
now people are taking umbrage
with the fact that Patrick is not actually a tradie.
He works at a holiday park.
Guys.
It's just the name of the game.
Anyone can play.
We've got to take a breather.
Anyone can play tradie versus lady.
It's just a fun name.
Hey, we found a list of names
that have been banned in New Zealand.
Names you're not allowed to give your kids.
Yeah, this is quite an interesting one.
So this is from the past, I think it's from 2024.
The list has been-
So names that got rejected.
Exactly, from last year.
And this is actually making news around the world.
The New Zealand government has released a list
of 40 names that it banned parents from using last year. And do you want to go
through some of them?
Simon Bridges.
No, that wasn't one.
No more baby Simon Bridges.
No more little baby Simons. How many babies do you reckon were born last year in this
country?
Oh, good question. I have no idea. I'm gonna say fifty five thousand sixty thousand babies born across
the country last year
the number one highest
Sorry, the name that was rejected rejected the most times by the New Zealand government
King
King King
Kinji, yeah,. King was rejected multiple times and then it was
kind of a theme coming in second most rejected name Prince. Princess was third and then all
the variations on Prince and Princess all the different spellings they were also rejected.
Oh you can't have a Prin-zess No. You can't have kings with a Z?
No.
What about kings with a Z who sings?
I think that's his stage name.
Oh, okay. Yeah.
What about King Kapisi?
Who's that?
The singer, the rapper, the New Zealand rapper.
Yeah, so this is the interesting part,
is I feel like there would be people listening right now
who have the name King or Princess.
You got an early, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can't have it anymore.
But since then they've banned certain names. Do you want to hear some of the others? Some
of the other names that were banned, Bishop, Allah, Royal, Messiah, Emperor, Duke and Sovereign.
Right, so you can't have anything that denotes royalty.
Exactly. Or godlike status.
Exactly right.
Yeah right.
This was my favourite part of the article though.
These two names were rejected
by the New Zealand government last year.
Where someone tried to name their baby either,
and forgive me if I'm wrong,
I don't know if this is how you pronounce it,
indica and sativa.
Oh, indica.
Indica and sativa,
which are two separate strains of cannabis.
Correct.
Someone tried to name their babies that.
Every year in New Zealand,
someone tries to name their baby Sativa. Every year.
You know what else is quite interesting?
Out of the 60,000 babies that were born last year in this country,
how many do you think were unique names?
Oh, not too many, I hope.
How many do you reckon? Out of the 60,000?
Four.
19,404 were unique names.
We invented 19,000 new names last year?
I don't know.
Wow.
Cause you can spell your baby's name however you want.
Well, I think that's what it is.
Oh, $100 in them, do you have a name
that's on that band list?
Yeah.
Did you get in before the band?
And I'll read them out again. Do you have any of these names? Are you currently named either King, Prince, Princess?
All different spellings on the Prince and Princesses and
What a Bishop, Allah, Royal, Messiah, Emperor, Duke, Sovereign, Indica and Sativa.
Oh, $800 a day.
We would love to speak to you.
Yeah, I can't wait to talk to Sativa.
Yeah.
ZM's Brianne Clance.
Right now we're talking about names that were banned
by the New Zealand government last year.
People were trying to name their baby certain names
and the government said, no, no,
you can't name your baby that.
There's all kinds of ticks coming in from people who either have the name or
or know someone with the name and someone texts in and they said I know
someone with a name that should be banned it's L L what is that? L I L S H Y T E
Lil Shite. That's not real. Lil Shite. That's not real. One of his cousins with
Lil Wayne. Lynette is here. Hi Lynette. Hi Lynette. Hi it's Lynnear. Oh Lynnear. Lynnear?
Lillshite. No no, I've got a nephew named King and it's spelled K-Y-N-G.
K-Y-N-G.
Yeah, damn.
He would not be allowed, if he was born now,
he wouldn't be allowed it.
Nah, but he was born, he's eight now, so yeah.
My brother and my sister-in-law
were quite lucky to get that name in there.
Oh, how bad.
And how lucky?
They tried to go for, they tried to spell it like K-I-N-G,
but the nurses at the hospital said
that it wouldn't get accepted.
So they tried it, the K-Y-N-G, and it got accepted.
Clever.
That's what I always do on the New Zealand
Kiwi Plates website.
Yeah, yeah.
You know?
When I can't get one, I'll try change out a letter.
Yeah, yeah.
Any other unique, any other,
cause I haven't heard Lanier before either.
Any other unique names in your family, Lanier?
No, well, I've got a niece too.
She was just born probably about last year, mid April,
I think, and her name is Princess.
Oh my god, that's on the band list as well.
Yeah, well that was, her name's Princess but it's spelt a different way and it's got a
hyphenation in it.
Princess?
Yeah.
Yeah, again, clever, clever.
Yeah, so they used a hyphenation in it as well.
Lynnea, do you think they put out this band list of names because of your family? Oh, probably. Yeah, they use the hyphenation as well. Lynnea, do you think they put out this banned list of names because of your family?
Oh, probably. Yeah, I feel like your family is to blame for a lot of these banned names, Lynnea.
Thank you. We appreciate the call. Oh, we got her. Welcome to the show. Indica.
Indica. Hi. Hi, Indica.
You've got an illegal name, Indica.
I definitely do.
Yeah. And we've heard that you and your sister both have banned names. Hi Indica! You've got an illegal name, Indica? I definitely do.
And we've heard that you and your sister both have banned names.
Yes, my little sister, her name is Sativa as well.
Stop!
Get out of here!
No, it's not!
Are you kidding me?
No, I'm not kidding you.
I do go by Indy for short though.
Of course you do.
Yeah, fair enough.
So obviously for those who have just joined us,
Indica and Sativa both on the band list of names.
Two separate strains of cannabis.
Yeah, you're named after weed.
Are your parents, do they love the time 420 or?
Are they big stoners?
Yes they do and my wedding anniversary is actually 420.
Stop!
I'm obsessed with you and your family.
So it runs in the family then Indica. I am obsessed with you.
I also got married to Bob Marley just to fit in with the theme as well so.
What the hell?
Whereabouts do you guys live?
I am originally from West Auckland but I've been living in Kaitaia for three years now.
Of course.
That checks out.
Of course.
I've been to Kaitaia.
Lovely place. And I'm from West Auckland so yeah that's perfect. We hear you. Hey, thanks, Indica. Good to meet
an illegal New Zealander. Thank you. We'll keep it on the down low, don't you worry.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, just between us. Have a good day. You too, mate. I love her.
ZM's Bri and Clint podcast.
Where you going? You're going. ZM's Bri and Clint podcast. Bri's choice today, seeing as we're in charge of the music.
God, no regrets on that.
Love me a bit of branchy.
What do you reckon, music director Pixie, does that get a tick of approval?
Was that a good choice?
It was a banger.
It was a banger.
It was a four o'clock banger.
Come on, let's go.
I want to talk about this survey that I was reading about where it was a big survey about
54,000 people took part asking a bunch of different questions. But the one question
I was interested in is they asked people what salary a person would need to earn in 2025
to be considered rich.
Interesting. This is all just based on people's opinion.
Yeah, this is just people's opinion.
Yeah.
Rich.
The majority of respondents,
so there was 56% of those people.
So over 50% of people said the same thing.
And the most,
the biggest answer they said was over $250,000.
Over $250,000 to be rich.
They said $250,000 plus.
Yeah, yeah.
So from $250,000.
I'm gonna Google how much doctors make
because that's always my benchmark for a good.
How much is it?
Although the doctors are striking at the moment,
the senior doctors are striking
because they're saying that they don't earn enough.
And are you talking like a GP?
How much do GPs...
Yeah, what's a GP in New Zealand making?
Earn an NZ.
I feel like it'd be quite different depending on where in the country they are.
Between 160 and 250,000.
Okay.
Pay the doctors whatever they need, by the way.
That's my opinion.
And the nurses.
Not that you asked.
And the nurses.
Mainly the nurses.
And the doctors. And the doctors. Mainly the nurses. And the doctors.
And the doctors.
But the nurses need a little bump first too.
Yeah, 100%.
We asked you guys what are you considered to be rich?
There's texts of all kinds.
People said anything over 100 grand I think is rich.
Anything over 150 grand.
Someone said I earn 120 grand a year and I'm not rich yet.
I think 250.
250.
So they were spot on what
they most of the people in this survey said someone said 300,000 someone said
750,000 to 1 million per year I want to know. Well yes I would consider that
rich. How much that person earns. Yeah. If that's what they consider rich.
If 750 is the entry level for rich.
Damn.
I don't, I could not name a person that I know that's earning 750k.
Claudia, what do you reckon?
No, I'm not on 750k.
Are you sure?
It's close, but not quite.
Okay.
I've seen the car you drove.
What's rich to you?
You hear someone's salary is?
Oh, my first thought was 120, but I'm bumping it to 200.
Yeah.
I feel like...
Rich.
It feels rich to me.
We're talking not well off, like comfortable.
Maybe that would be well off.
Talking rich.
It's changed so much in the last five years.
Yeah.
Of the price of everything going up.
There was a really good text actually.
Where was that text that came through
and they were saying what they would have considered.
Five years ago, 100K a year was an amazing wage.
Now 250K plus is well off.
There you go.
The median income in New Zealand is $65,000 a year.
The median household income is65,000 a year. The median household income is $140,000 a year.
So rich has to be more than that for a household.
Someone texted her and they said, I earn $180,000. Good work. Good for you. My partner earns
$70,000. We are by absolutely no means rich.
I'd say 300K would be what I consider to be rich.
But isn't that interesting
because you're not that far off 300K.
180 plus 70, you're on 250.
So is it just another 50 grand a year
for you guys to be rich?
Or are they meaning each?
Oh.
You know?
Okay, yes, yes.
I read that as each.
Yeah.
Get two $250,000 salaries in the house.
I love this text and it's so true.
It says, when I was earning 50K, I thought 80K was rich.
When I earned 80K, I thought 100K was rich.
And when I earned 100K, I thought 120 was rich. And when I earned 120, I thought 150 hundred K was rich and when I earned a hundred K I thought a hundred and twenty was rich and when I earned a hundred and twenty I thought a hundred and fifty was rich and now
I'm earning a hundred and fifty and I think two hundred isn't that interesting?
Yeah, so the bars always moving. Yeah, you're always chasing your tail. Mm-hmm. So
Maybe wealth doesn't come from a bank statement
Maybe maybe our true wealth is the friends we make along
the way. No, I want the money. I'm just kidding.
We've asked this question before and it has been really interesting, the responses. We
asked, are you rich? Do you know that you're rich? Do you consider yourself to be rich?
We mean financially, not spiritually or relationship wise. And can you call us? Do you consider yourself to be rich? We mean financially, not spiritually or relationship wise. Yeah. And can you call us? Are you willing
to tell us, I don't know, how much you have, how much you earn, how did you get
rich? And it's not bragging because we're asking you to call. We're asking you to
call because we want to know. Yeah, we'd absolutely keep you anonymous if you
wanted to be anonymous. Yeah, you can be anonymous. We're just curious.
Yeah.
There's a lot of interesting text still coming through.
What about this one?
Our household income is 250k ish and we are just barely paying our mortgage and
living expenses. We've got two kids.
It's all relative.
It is all relative.
Yeah. Like 250k in Auckland, like household income, very different to 250k in
another place in New Zealand. I think 250 rich though. I think 250 rich.
No, but like if you're on 250 household income in, you know, Kaitaia. Mega rich.
Mega rich. The ZM Podcast Network. Are you rich?
Can we come over and use the ice maker in your fridge?
Can we use something in your pool?
Cause I assume it's heated.
Can we watch a movie in your home cinema?
Bre read out a study before.
A bunch of people have answered a question here.
And one of the questions was,
how much does someone earn for you to consider them rich?
And the most common answer was $250,000 or above.
Yes.
So...
Most people thought, yeah, $250k plus.
That's the modern benchmark.
Growing up, I would have thought anybody who earned over $100,000 was rich.
$100,000 was like rich to me.
But times do change and now the bar is at $250k, guys.
That's what you've got to hit.
So we asked, are you rich and can we talk to you?
Interestingly, no one willing to call through. I don't want to brag. Fair
enough. A few people texting through though. Yes. Like this person, hello I
own my own consultancy firm and our expected turnover is eight million
dollars this year which is a third down on last year. For me, when I realized I was wealthy was
when I had one million in available funds in my checking account.
Oh! Yeah, that would do it.
Do you remember phone banking? Before internet banking, when you'd call up and you'd put
in the account you wanted and you'd go, your available balance is one million dollars.
Crazy.
Oh my god, you would want to record it if you heard that.
Someone said no one's calling in because they're too rich for radio.
Do rich people not listen to radio?
Well, they wouldn't be listening to our show.
True.
True.
We're a hit with the povos.
Like rich people probably are like, I'm not listening to these two dumb-dumbs.
Someone said, guys, it's about scale.
There's rich and then there's helicopter rich.
If you can't afford a helicopter, you ain't rich.
That's, yeah, well, there's different types of rich.
Yeah, that's so right,
but you cannot afford a helicopter on 250,000.
Absolutely not.
Which means by that metric, 250 is not rich.
No. No. No.
No.
No.
What about this one?
My wife and I, my wife and I are 30,
collectively earn slightly above one million a year,
but put our money into assets and property
and don't hold too much in our accounts.
We don't class ourselves as rich.
We don't strive to be rich,
but to actually have financial freedom
so we can spend time together as a family
and go out and make lasting memories on holidays
and have time off working so we can provide our child
with a good life and remember his parents
were being there for him and just focus on working,
not just focused on working to make money.
That person's read Rich Dad Poor Dad.
Is that a book? Yeah.
Is that the general gist?
That's the principal, yeah.
Yeah.
Sometimes did I work at a private school,
and I shared with my class that I was going to the islands for the holidays.
One of my students said,
our family owns an island.
Far out.
They weren't joking.
I bet they weren't joking.
This one, one of my best mates dad's and 1.7 million dollars last financial year he's definitely rich but
you wouldn't know it such a chilled out down-to-earth guy you'll be chilled out
if I had 1.7 million dollars I had not to be jealous. Someone in my family who we visited over the Christmas holidays and we went to their house
and the house is just outrageous.
Anyway, in this one part of the house, this person says to my dad, he's like, oh, come
and look at this, what I've framed. Come and look at what I've framed on the wall.
And it was two bank checks from when he sold his business.
One was for 15 million and the other was for 12.
Had he not banked them, was he that rich?
He's like, I'm so rich,
I'm gonna frame these instead of cashing them.
Maybe, now that's rich.
Now that is rich.
Now that is rich. It's ZM's Bri and Clint podcast.
Bri and Clint.
Well, time to play.
Do you feel lucky?
Well, do ya?
It's time for Bri and Clint's Google Down, punk.
I like how you look to me and I look to you
and I was like, what?
And then I was like, oh, that's all right.
Well, I want to introduce your big game. Google Down it's time to play where we find out who is
the fastest Googler out of the team and they're playing along for people if you've texted through
either Clint, Claudia or Pixie you could be winning 50k of seed chicken dollars. I'm taking
a different approach this week. What approach are you taking? I'm going for a relaxed stance.
Okay. How are you going to relax?
I'm just not going to stress about it.
Are you going to cheat again?
No.
Why haven't I just done that my whole life?
Yeah. I'm just going to see if it helps.
It's so simple.
I always play this game really tense.
And it has never benefited me.
So today I'll just chill out.
Next time I have real bad anxiety, I'm just gonna go...
Just chill out.
Just chill out.
I'm just not gonna have it.
I might tense up a bit, actually.
Next time you're a bit like the hours, be like,
Oi, just calm down.
That's what I need to hear.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's exactly what I want to hear in those moments.
Okay, let's Google.
Alright, here we go.
I've put these questions in.
First person to yell out the correct answer gets a point first
The three takes home the win. Are we ready?
question number one
How many seasons of the TV show yellow jackets are there three
Who said that me? I watch it. I love it. That's correct three
Clint with a relaxed three.
There are also plans for fourth and potentially a fifth season.
That's lovely Pixie, but you're not getting any points.
One to Claudia.
Question number two.
Who is Scarlett Johansson married to?
What's his name?
Jollin Cot.
Colin Jost.
Colin Jost, yeah.
Should have almost un-relaxed just then. But Pixie said Jolin Kost and I stopped myself from laughing longer after saying Colin Jost.
Do you actually? No.
Oh, I'm going to have to give the point to Clint.
Jolin Jost. No, Jolin Kost.
Jolin Kost and Clint swooped in and said Colin Jost.
Third husband.
Wow.
Wonder Pixie.
No, Wonder Clint, sorry.
Wonder Claudia.
Question number three.
Who invented the Air Jordan shoe?
Haydamore.
Tweed.
Well done, Pixie.
Yeah.
Back in the game. Or meter...
...4, as Pexey would say. That's the one.
God, my brain hurt trying to figure that out. I was going to say Nike, but that would be wrong, eh?
Yeah. It was an actual...
Nike marketed the Air Jordan. But an actual man, Michael Jordan...
I haven't seen that in a bit....endorsed the Air Jordan.
But Peter Moore......invented Moore invented and created the actual shoot.
All right, we are one apiece.
Here we go.
Question number four.
What was the number one song on April 6th, the year 2000?
Maria Maria Santana.
Say My Name by Destiny's Child.
God, I've got different to all of you.
You're gonna have to forfeit the question.
No, we can keep going until we get it.
Westlife?
No.
Maria Maria.
Rules of Engagement?
Bye bye bye, insane.
Oh, that's a movie.
April 6th, 2000.
Bye bye bye, insane.
April 6th, 2000.
In New Zealand?
I just put it into Google and it was whatever came up.
Maria Maria by Santana.
Outside did it again, Britney Spears.
Pixie gets the point.
Three.
Yeah.
Outside did it again, Britney Spears.
Two to Pixie.
One to Claudia, one to Clint.
I hate these games.
Could Pixie be going three in a row?
Three from three, yeah.
Well, Clint doesn't care, he's so relaxed anyways.
Nah, I care, but you know, it is what it is.
Question number five.
In what year was Art Green the Bachelor?
2014.
2015 is right.
From the Dome!
2015, two to Clint, two to to Pixie one to Claudia question number six
how long do llamas live for 20 years 20 years in the wild slightly over 15 years
only lived to about 10 years old I'm gonna say it was a tie between Claudia and Clint which means Clint takes the win on that one and that's the
game. Nicole thank you for backing me in and the relaxed stance got us there in
the end so you know. I like how all of your relaxed answers would start with real panic though.
Yes, correct. Yeah, yeah.
Twenty!
This relaxed attitude is merely a facade.
Well done Nicole, we'll get that KFC out to you mate, nice work.
Thank you so much, nice job Clint.
Thank you, oh my good duck on water.
On the top, chill baby. And underneath, feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet feet Oh hell no. Washing up on the beach? Hell to the no. Famously nothing that will kill you here in New Zealand.
Except maybe like a pig. Like a wild pig. Yeah, a wild pig. What else would kill you out in the wild in New Zealand?
I heard... Exposure? Yeah. I heard those... certain birds can get quite irritated.
Oh, like a kea.
Yeah, like a kea can get quite agitated
and kind of, you know, pick your eyes out.
Well, these are highly venomous yellow-bellied sea snakes.
The latest one has just washed up on Great Barrier Island.
Dead?
No, I believe alive.
Oh no.
It's interesting, but it's been captured and it's dead now.
Did they kill it?
Well, it's real interesting because they arrive here naturally from time to time. Occasionally
a poisonous snake will come to New Zealand rather than being brought here, they get given native status, which means it's illegal to kill them.
So if you see a poisonous sea snake on the beach, you're not allowed to kill it.
Yeah, but if no one finds out.
But I mean, if not, and if it's trying to bite you.
Does that mean if like an Australian floats over?
Australian person.
Yeah, an Australian person floats over the ditch.
Yeah, if they get here naturally.
You know, they get here naturally by the currents.
If they get on a lilo.
Do they get native status?
Yeah, I guess they would.
Yeah, instant residency.
Anyway, this latest snake,
it's the most New Zealand shit ever.
It's dead, they've photographed it,
and they're taking it to Te Papa. Okay. The museum. To put it in the museum. Yeah they're gonna put it in the museum.
Because we have so few things like this. They're like this is the this is the
poisonous snake that came to New Zealand. Have you ever seen a poisonous snake?
No. You've never seen one up close? No. The only snake I've seen is at Corrum...
The only snake I've seen is at Corrumban Wildlife Sanctuary.
Okay, well.
When they put it on your shoulders
and it was like a big python or something.
Python, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
I had a King Brown,
because obviously I grew up on a farm.
I had a King Brown, and for people listening,
a King Brown snake,
one of the most venomous snakes in the entire world,
and they're enormous. Like they're big the entire world and they're enormous like
they're big big snakes and they're real fast I had a King Brown snake chase me
on a motorbike like the snake wasn't on the motorbike yeah good clarification
yeah just if people were confused by that no I was riding around the farm on
a motorbike and this King Brown started chasing me. Are they as fast as a motorbike?
They're pretty damn fast.
I mean I was on a, it was like a Pee Wee 50.
What do they teach you at school in Australia when you come across like a King Brown?
You know how if you catch on fire you stop, drop and roll.
If there's an earthquake you drop, cover, hold.
What do you do?
What do they tell kids to do if you see a snake?
Run for your life!
Run. Depends what snake it is. Like a King Brown, they're real aggressive and they'll chase
you. Like and that's what I think makes them even scarier. Whereas like a red
belly black or like other venomous snakes we have aren't like that. They're
quite scared and timid. Whereas King Brown's, yeah When I lived my last radio job, have you ever watched a snake be milked to make anti-venom?
Yeah, to get the venom out of its teeth.
They don't milk a snake's nipples.
They milk their fangs for the venom.
Does a snake have nipples?
That's a great question.
Does a snake have...
Oh.
Well a snake... Well no, because well no. Where is the snake's
butthole? Is it in the very tip of its tail? Right at the end of the tail. Is it? Some
snakes lay eggs and some snakes lay fully formed babies. No. Yeah. Really? I'm pretty
sure. I think sea snakes just lay snakes.
Disgusting.
Like give birth to just snakes, I'm pretty sure.
Disgusting.
Change the law.
See a snake?
Kill it.
Just kill it.
Do us all a favour.
Yeah.
I mean I don't want to because I'm too scared but...
Oh yeah, like I would have the guts to do it.
I can just imagine you...
Lucy get the shovel!
It's a snake called Zappapa!
Play ZM's Bree and Clint.
Let's rock, welcome to Gaydar! This is where we try and figure out based on very little information

Miki, what's your dream car?
A 1997 Chevy Impala.
Oh, she knows the specifics.
That's a great choice too. That's such a hot car.

Oh, okay, Miki?
How about you've both got it right?
How do we both got it right?

She featured on someone else's song.
Speaking of things from the 2000s,
a 2000s icon got turned off today.
Shut down. It's gone.
We're going to talk about it next.
And we're wondering if you guys could hit us with some 2000s nostalgia.
Skype, the video calling platform.
Today, Microsoft turned it off.
They've decided to focus on its alternative service, Microsoft Teams.
Yeah, because that's so good.
AKA the worst place on the internet. Skype came out in 2003 and at its peak had over 300 million
users.
Wow!
But Skype fumbled the bag, seriously, when COVID happened. Do you remember when COVID first started?
Was anyone really using Skype before COVID anyway?
Well, 300 million people were.
Like FaceTime, FaceTime, like was invented
within that time space.
I guess, but the thing that blew my mind about COVID
is how everybody just started using Zoom.
Like I'd never heard of Zoom before.
Neither.
And then all of a sudden it was just,
everyone's like, oh, we'll just Zoom. I was like,. What is that? Oh we'll have a Zoom stag party. Oh we'll have a
Zoom wedding. You know? I'll play board games on Zoom. Where did this come from? It was Skype's
opportunity to be like this is us. We still exist. Do you remember even in the 2000s Skype was
so the word for video calling that they invented the term, well I don't think
they invented it, but they were the word that...
Skype sex?
No, I don't remember that.
Oh, you don't remember that?
Is that what you were doing in the 2000s?
Long distance relationships would Skype, I know I never did.
No, I can't think of anything worse, but people would Skype.
No, nobody?
You never bought one of those weird like bubble webcams?
Nah.
You know, to Skype your long distance girlfriend?
Anyway, it's gone.
But, so this noise here is confined to nostalgia.
This reminds me of calling my friends overseas.
Love Skype. Skype was awesome.
We've asked you guys to hit us with the most potent bit of nostalgia that you have.
And the one that gets us the most is going to win some free KFC chicken dollars.
Okay, let's start going through the list. What about this one?
Going to collect your photos that you had to get developed.
Oh.
That's a vibe.
You pay extra to get them developed within an hour.
Someone said getting your Winamp playlist
organized for the weekend.
Oh, do you remember Winamp?
No.
It was the built-in Windows media player.
Oh, yeah, kind of.
It was how you played your music on your computer.
Someone said, the static on the TV
always makes me think of my grandmother.
True, you don't get static on TVs anymore.
Oh yeah, you don't.
They just work or they don't. Wild. I never get over sniffters, tangy fruits and sparkles. Yeah that comes up.
I love this one. Yeah. Warriors, the Warriors beating the storm in the 2008 finals.
The last time. How good. Burning CDs, floppy discs, also tuning the stereo,
Good. Burning CDs, floppy disks, also tuning the stereo,
also recording songs off the radio on my stereo. Yeah, how good. Having to get off the internet
so your mum can use the phone.
Oh, that hits hard.
Mum, I'm on the internet!
Someone said playing penis roulette on chat roulette.
Oh. Oh, that, yeah,
that wasn't a good time.
Was chat roulette the worst place on the internet?
Yeah, I think it still is.
Does it still exist?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it still exists.
Yeah, yeah.
Um, the Nokia, the Nokia is peak nostalgia.
Yeah.
MSN Messenger.
Oddboards trading cards.
Pizza Hut Buffet.
Oh.
How bloody good. They bought it back in Auckland
briefly for like a promo last year. Was it good? It was so good. Was it authentic? It was authentic.
Yeah. Yeah, it was like how I remember it. And they should, I mean, I feel like they should bring
it back. I feel like it can't be genuine unless there's the smell of cigarette smoke in the restaurant as well. They didn't have that. Yeah that's the missing component.
They missed that part out. Let some people smoke on one side of the restaurant. Yeah.
Someone said the smell of your old TV. Oh yeah. What was the smell? Yeah it had like
because they got, it used to get hot TVs and if they had a bit of dust in the back of them.
Yeah I can remember TV smell.
What about how you'd have to like hit a VCR tape
and then,
whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo,
and put it back in.
People are texting in lots here.
Someone said house parties.
Yeah, I reckon they still happen.
I reckon we're just too old to go to them.
Oh my God, someone was having a raging house party
right near my place on the weekend.
It sounded like there was like 100 people there.
Someone said hiring weekly rentals and new movies
at VideoEasy on a Friday night.
That was it.
We always went and we wanted to get
the $8 new release movie,
which you had to take back the next day,
but dad only ever let us get the five for $5 old release. That's what we had to get the $8 new release movie, which you had to take back the next day. But Dad only ever let us get the five for five dollar old release.
That's what we had to get.
And they were always shouting and we always looked around the whole video
easy store trying to find something to watch.
And the guy that owned our local video store would always hit on my mum.
It was always weird. I'd be like, Mum, I don't want to go there.
He's always like creepy around you.
And looking back on it, it's because he was always hitting on my mom. I was like leave mama alone
But he would always wave the late feet, but how does mom about it?
Well, I'm just like that she didn't have to pay the light fees. Yeah, nice. Yeah, she was she was working it
I think we give it to that one. I think we give it to the video easy person. Gotta do it 50 KFC chicken dollars
Thank you I think we give it to that one. I think we give it to the video, easy person. Gotta do it. 50 KFC chicken dollars, thank you.
Dad Am's Bree and Clint podcast.
You'll know our next guest from The Office Australia
and she's here performing as part of the,
I'm gonna get this right this time,
the New Zealand International Comedy Festival
with Best Foods Mayo.
Smashed it.
Please welcome to the show Felicity Ward.
Woo woo woo woo!
Woo!
Yeah!
Finally someone funny on the show. Oh, about bloody time. Finally a someone funny on the show.
About bloody time.
Finally a funny Australian on the show.
About time we got one.
You are going absolutely viral in New Zealand at the moment for your clip on Seven Days.
I don't know if you expected this to happen or if you even wanted this to happen.
No. I literally, before I said the bit, and it's about commercial radio,
and look it up on
my Instagram, it's got 1.1 million views.
And I said before I said it, I'm like, this show doesn't get broadcast in Australia, does
it?
And they're like, no, no, no, no, it barely broadcasts in New Zealand.
Ha ha ha ha.
Anyway, someone from the social media department said, yes, let's use that clip.
And there's a lot of angry people out there.
Which just confirms what you said. If you haven't heard it.
I'd rather listen to AI than listen to most Australian commercial radios because nearly
every show is just like, oh yeah, you're listening to Dazza, Shitcan and the Woman.
This is the breakfast show called Eat, Steak or Die and we'll make some relatable jokes
about how we hate our wives, our burgeoning alcoholism, but also men's mental health.
I grew up listening to that show.
Yeah, so did I.
So did we all.
The only thing that I regret is instead of saying most Australian radio, I wish I said
some Australian radio.
Some, yeah right.
That's the only thing that I would change.
My question for you is have you had a chance to listen to much New Zealand commercial radio
since you've been here?
No, but I haven't been invited on many shows.
Yeah, yeah.
Why not?
I'm wondering if it touched on that.
I wonder what the reason for that is.
Do you know what it is? Is that I was out here for the office six months ago.
Yeah.
So I sort of did all of the media that is available in New Zealand. They're like, oh, we love her.
Yeah, we had her on recently. Yeah, you can do it in a day.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that's right.
We didn't, we actually put our hand up for that,
but you said no.
Did I?
No, I didn't.
Let me tell you, I didn't,
because I'm an absolute media whore.
I'll do anything.
What's going?
I'll do it.
She got you there.
You thought she was the woman.
That's actually Shikhen.
Yeah, I am Shikhen.
Yeah, we love it, we love it.
How are you enjoying performing in Auckland so far? You did
your first show in the Comedy Festival last night. Yeah how was the crowd? Do you
know what it was awesome sometimes Kiwi audiences like New Zealanders are so
nice sometimes they are enjoying themselves with a smile. They want to
they want to go oh I'm smiling so hard but they can be like a little bit self-conscious.
And they were not at all.
They were just like ready to rip from the first joke.
So we had a lovely time.
Lovely, lovely time.
I just love this country.
It is a bloody good country and people love good comedy.
A bloody good country.
A bloody good country.
You get one Australian back in here and listen to us.
She's back in a nose.
She's slipping.
It's like I'm catching the virus. You are. We were talking before you came in You get one Australian back in here and listen to us. She's back in a nose. She's slipping. Yeah.
It's like I'm catching the virus.
You are.
You know?
We were talking before you came in
and we were having this weird conversation
and we thought we'd ask you the question.
The question is if there was a-
A weird question.
This is out the gate.
I'm a weird person.
Okay.
Right, perfect.
You're the perfect person to ask.
So if there's a hundred people in a room and just-
Only one person believes in you.
Yeah, yeah. Is this a lady? Go ahead. No, a hundred people in a room and just like one person believes in you. Yeah, yeah. Is this a lady guy?
No, hundred people in a room.
How many people are you going to be attracted to out of the hundred?
Oh, interesting.
Because we all had different answers.
Well, Claudia and I, producer Claude and I were kind of similar.
Clint.
Don't do not give my answer.
Okay.
Why not?
The wording, I think the phrasing is important.
Okay.
Is it I'll do anyone?
Is that what, were they the words?
The way I was asked, there's a hundred people,
you walk into a room of a hundred people,
how many people do you think you could be attracted to?
Oh, that's a different question.
But also, okay, it's different in a room
because you get to speak to them.
There are people who I am not necessarily
physically attracted to, but then you speak to them.
They're funny, so they get 40% immediately. I hear that. And then if they're charming on top of that,
and then eventually if there's chemistry and they're like they're just great people.
So it's quite variable. Also, I'm an incredibly horny person. So I'll...
So give us a number. Yeah, what's the percentage?
No more than 99. Vindicated! My number was 90 and I was chest-ized.
That's funny.
No, I reckon there would be
15 people that I would go...
Like 15...
Claudia, she's one of us.
I reckon 15.
Claudia and I said about 10. I think it was about 10 that we said.
I've never seen quite sync so far.
I think you're actually going red, I appreciate that.
Well, I thought, yeah. No, I think that you're, I think you're optimistic and a
hopeful person. Yeah I'm not shallow. No that's the opposite of shallow. Saying you would be
attracted to 90% is the opposite. That's what I'm saying. He had the same answer for how many
people would be attracted to you and he also said 90. Did you think 90 people will be attracted to you?
No, that's made up.
I absolutely love that for you.
I said 50.
You think 50% of people?
I think for me, I still have the mentality.
I was a very ugly teenager and so I had to develop a personality.
And so now I don't know if I'm attractive or have a good personality.
Or famous. That's something to factor into it too. We can put it to or have a good personality. Or famous.
Yeah.
That's something to factor into it too.
We can put it to bed here, all three.
Thank you.
You're all bloody three.
You can see Felicity Ward in the-
And my number is, oh, seven.
In the Comedy Festival, she's performing tonight,
right through to the 10th of May

Lovely to meet you. Lovely to meet you.
Lovely to meet you.

More than likely.
The cards are on the table.
He'll be all over it like a rash.
You'll see him on Tinder.
You can see him on Bumble.
You can see him.
The ZM Podcast Network.
There's creed on ZM, Brent Clunt.
We're in charge of the music today.
We're picking a song an hour, okay?
Imagine people tuning in and them going,
this isn't ZM.
What the hell's going on here?
How do you reckon we've gone, Pixie?
Yeah, you're the music director.
We're picking the music
because we beat you in a competition.
Honestly, like, nine out of 10.
I'm loving it.
Nine out of 10!
Dane Rumble.
What's that? Dane Rumble. Dane Rumble good. That's what we started with. Good. Brie did. Michelle Branch. Michelle Branch. Good. Then we went back to back with some Nickelback.
Nickelback was probably the best. Oh yeah, better than Creed. Yeah, Rockstar Nickelback. Rockstar.
Can't beat it. We're on a quest to find the world's first millennial. It's been going on for a bit now.
We figured out they're born on the 1st of January, 1981.
Yesterday we talked to a man born in New Zealand at 12.16am.
What, Claudia?
Early at 12.10.
12.10?
Yeah.
He was born at 12.10, excuse me, am on the 1st of January 81 but he knows that there
was a baby born before him because the local newspaper was there to take a
photo with him and then they got word that there was a baby born first so they
left and they took the bunch of flowers with them. That's crazy that he knew
that. So we're just leaving it open for a bit longer. Like we know that that baby
could be out there. They could be. Well they're not a baby anymore. No, they'll be a 44 year old adult.
Claudia, you have made it your mission to go into the archives and find us some more
details.
How are you going?
So I've done a little bit of research for you.
Tomorrow morning though, I'm going to head down to the Auckland Central Library and I'm
going to go through and I'm going to find every newspaper that they have from the 1st
of January, 1981, because there's going to be baby pictures in there and there's going to be names.
I'm going to track down these babies.
Will it be on Jan 1 or will it be on Jan 2?
I'll look at both.
Also, I think you would have the baby, it would take you a couple of days to get the
notice to birth, deaths and marriages.
So you may have to look at the first week of 1981.
Every newspaper in New Zealand from the first week of 1981.
Fine, I'll be the hot librarian.
But in the meantime, I have been in touch with internal affairs,
trying to get as much information around births that day as I could.
I told you yesterday...
Do you reckon there's a lot of infidelity at that place?
Yeah.
Yeah, probably, yeah.
I reckon. I told you yesterday that it's still cheating
if it's an external affair. No, I don't know. Keep our clothes on. Sorry, Claude. I told
you yesterday they don't keep track of what time the babies were born, but I do have the
number of babies born that day.
What if we have to track down every single baby that was born on January 1st 1981?
It depends on the number as to how keen I'll be.
Claudia, how many babies were born in New Zealand on January 1st 1981?
136.
Is that it?
Yeah!
We could do that.
We could do that.
Knock a couple off each day.
Yeah. And I also did some research about the top
baby names of that year. So likely they have those names, right?
What are they? So the top girls, the top three, Jennifer,
Jessica and Amanda. That's so that era. It's 100% spot on.
Late Gen X names. And for boys, so we've had two men on the show
that could be, no. Tom.
So earlier this week we talked to Mike,
the number one name that year, Michael.
Yesterday we talked to Chris,
the number two name, Christopher.
Christopher.
And then number three, Matthew.
Matthew.
Yeah.
And then Jason.
Well the quiz continues.
Jason works.
Yeah, Jason's a very millennial name.
It is a very millennial name.
We've got to track down these 136 people.
If you are a millennial born on It is a very millennial name. We're going to track down these 136 people.
If you are a millennial born on the 1st of January 1981 before 12.10am...
We need to get in touch with you.
We need to speak with you.
There could be a prize and a trophy coming your way.
Get in our DMs on Instagram and let us know because we would love to connect with you.
And crown you the world's first millennial.
