The ZM Podcast Network. ZM, Brie and Clint. With guest host Maddie McLean. That's us. The boys are back in town. The boys. How's your day been? My day's been good actually.

Yeah? Yeah, really good. Yeah? How's yours? Good. Had a sweet corn toasted sandwich for lunch. Throwback. I love it. I know. Like a homemade

one. No, I bought it from a cafe, but I thought I would definitely make these at home. Canned sweet corn. Do you know they call them Jaffles in Australia? Jaffles different. Jaffles that one it's the toasted sandwich maker that you clip shut and it pinches the sides and you get the really crusty It's different. Jaffel's that one. It's the toasted sandwich maker that you clip shut. Yes, right.

And it pinches the sides. Yeah. And you get the really crusty edge, but you get that hot pocket of gooeyness inside the toasted sandwich. But there's still a toasted sandwich. Yeah, there's still a toasted sandwich. Yeah, yeah. Do we call it a Jaffel then?

Yeah, Jaffel. You need a Jaffel maker. If you're going to Briscoe's and wondering what to ask for, you get a Jaffel maker. Or a lot of people call them toasty pies as well. Right. See, I thought Jaffel was just like a doona duvet situation. Yeah, I think they call all

toasted sandwiches in Australia Jaffels. Yeah. But yeah. Good question. Now you make me want a toasted sandwich. Jaffel is a can be a dangerous food to eat because all that hot, molten hot stuff is on the inside. I would never put tomato inside a Jaffel.

I'd put tomato on a toasted sandwich, but not on a Jaffel. Thermonuclear. Always blow on the Jaffel. Always blow on the Jaffel. Save the communities together. Taylor Swift tickets coming up at four o'clock. Let's rip into a round of tradie versus lady.

Scores are pretty stagnant. The ladies are roughly 10 points ahead and have been for roughly two months. Wow. Yeah, it's going to take something major. Major. Almost a concerted effort from the tradies of New Zealand to come back from this. Come on, tradies. Pull finger.

If you want to do it, there's 50 bucks from KFC up for grabs. 0800DIALZM. We'll play tradie versus lady next. ZM's Bray and Clint. We'll play Tradie vs Lady next. ZM. Franklin. With guest host, Maddie McLean. It's Tradie vs Lady. Three, two, one, let's go.

Welcome to Tradie vs Lady, everybody. Our daily quiz where we're ranking the scores throughout the year. A whole year of keeping score. And so far, the Tradies have Lady, everybody. Our daily quiz where we're ranking the scores throughout the year. A whole year of keeping score. And so far, the tradies have won 72 times. And the ladies have won 81 times. I'm putting you on the spot here. But do you remember how it generally pans out by the end of the year? Is it pretty even?

Do the tradies win as much as the ladies? We only started keeping score last year. Right. So a full year last year. And the tradies romped in. Oh, really? Yeah. So it's completely score last year. Right. So a full year last year, and the tradies romped in. Oh, really? Yeah. So it's completely flipped this year.

In fact, towards the end of last year, we started throwing out double points as a way of getting the ladies back in the running. Couldn't do it. And this year, they said, no special treatment for us, please. No. We're going to dominate all on our own. Independent women. So let's do this thing.

Let's meet our lady first. She's calling from Christchurch. She's 20, and she works in a lolly shop. Welcome to the show, Kirsten. Hi. What lolly shop? The one in Christchurch. Just the lolly shop, yeah.

Oh, it's literally called the lolly shop. Yeah. Oh, nice. What's the best? The best lolly? Yeah. Probably the Jolly Ranchers that we have. Oh, like imported American candy type lolly store?

Yeah, like, yeah. Yeah, okay. You're taking on our tradie today. He's calling from Hamilton. He's 30 and he plays squash. Welcome to the show, Josh. Josh, you play squash. Hello, hello.

Are you good at squash, Josh? Yeah, no, it gets pretty sloppy. It's just a big piss-up, really. Yeah, right. Good club rooms at squash clubs usually, eh? Somewhere to have a beer afterwards? Oh, definitely, for sure. That's the only reason you play sport once you hit 30,

is to have a beer. Your buzzer is tradie. Kirsten, yours is lady. First of three correct answers gets $50 cash from KFC. Good luck, guys. Question number one. Crazy video footage of a camper van driving on the wrong side of the road has gone viral in New Zealand.

Which side of the road do they drive on in the UK? Tradie. Josh. The right side? Ooh. Lady. Yeah, go on. You cheeky.

No points. No points for that round. I like your gumption, though, Kirsten. It's a winning attitude. Question number two. Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet were seen kissing at Beyonce's latest concert. Name one of Kylie's famous sisters.

Lady. True. Kirsten. Kylie Kardashian. Yeah. We'll take it. Question number three. Which year was Trade Me founded?

1999, 2000 or 2001? Lady. Kirsten. 1999. How did you know that? I was a guess. Oh, good guess. Great guess.

Yeah. Two for you, Kirsten, but you can do it, Josh, all right? Josh, your back's really against the walls here. Just like in a game of squash, you're going to have to come out swinging, okay? Okay. Question number four. The Rolling Stones have announced their first new album in 18 years. Name this Rolling Stones song.

Yeah, Josh. Satisfaction? Well done. He did it. He's back in the game. Question number five. Shortland Street actor Grant Lobben says he brought 21 pairs of underwear with him to shoot the new season of Celebrity Treasure Island.

Name one of the hosts of the show. Jodie. Josh. Three, Thomas Hill. Yeah, well done. Nice. Whoa, we've drawn level.

Just quickly, how many pairs of undies did you take on Treasure Island, Matty? Maybe six or seven. Not enough. Not enough. Not enough to win the show. No. I was turning them inside out by the end.

Yeah. Okay, tie break. This is the winning question, guys. Yeah. I won Treasure Island, by the show. No. I was turning them inside out by the end. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, tie break. This is the winning question, guys. Yeah. I won Treasure Island, by the way. Question number six.

A garden door belonging to the late singer Freddie Mercury has sold at auction for nearly $900,000. Which iconic band was he the lead singer for? Josh.

Queen. Queen is correct. You have stolen a victory, Josh. And all it took was a Rolling Stones question and a Queen question. Are we sure we're on ZM? Well done, man. We got 50 bucks cash from KFC coming your way.

Thank you very much. Put it on jugs at the Squash Club. Nice. Josh from Squash. ZM's Brinkland with guest host, Maddie McLean. Joe Jonas' divorce

has been all in the news this week. You're still gutted, eh? I'm truly devastated about it. Yeah. It just is one of those what is love moments, you know? Baby, don't hurt me. Yeah.

Don't hurt me no more. No more. No more. Him and Sophie Turner from Game of Thrones have broken up. Did you know he's 35 and she's 27? I only learnt this out this morning. I didn't realise there was such an age gap between them. And they've got a two-year-old, four-year-old?

No. They've been married for four years. I think, yeah. They've got a three-year-old and a one-year-old. They'veyear-old? No. They've been married for four years. I think... Yeah, they've got a three-year-old and a one-year-old. They've got two kids. Yeah. Yeah. So, yeah.

But they're done. So don't worry about the age gap anymore. So she was young when they got together. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. So she's 27 now. So she was 23 when they got married four years ago. Yeah. That's why you shouldn't get married so young, everybody.

Totally. You don't know what's... It doesn't matter if they're a Jonas brother or not. It's not going to last. He's deleted all the pictures of her and them together from his social media. He has 12.6 million followers. So it was never going to go unnoticed. No. And also he knew what he was doing.

And people would have been looking for it, right? They looked for anything. Yeah, they've released a joint statement on their Instagram saying it's an amicable split. And then directly after releasing that statement, he deleted all memory of her altogether. See ya. And not just his ex-wife, the mother of his children.

Yeah, that's harsh. She has not removed Joe Jonas from her Instagram page. There's heaps of pictures of him and them together still on Sophie Turner's page, which I find interesting. You know? It's a big deal. Like, that's a big decision to go, I'm either making a stand here

or I'm so devastated slash angry by what has happened that I can't even stand the sight of you on my social media. It's an angry move. It's an angry move. He's also hired a very high-powered divorce attorney called Tom Sasser. He was Tiger Woods' divorce attorney. So Joe Jonas wants to get this thing done.

Something has gone on. Something bad has happened there. But to go and make the decision to very publicly remove your partner from your social media, that's a big deal. It's the main reason why a lot of people don't post their partner on their social media for a long time until they're really, really, really sure that this person is the forever person. And even then, you only often get a soft launch for a little bit.

You might get a cheeky hand from time to time, maybe a shoulder. A cheeky hand? You know. Oh. Like a hand in the photo. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, you might get the idea of the person.

They might feature on the story. That's fine. That's been and gone, you you know but not on the grid you would have thought that after four years of marriage you'd be safe but no

no more we want to talk about that this afternoon the idea of when you break up with someone do they get deleted from your social media

have you left or removed your exes from your social media well I don't have many to speak of yeah one

yeah one one that I would say is... One from the social media era of your life? One that was serious enough to have photos of the two of us together and those photos are still on my social media. Ella, start digging. Ella, get on Matty's social media right now and start digging. You'd have to scroll a long way.

Find this man. But you didn't remove him. I didn't remove him. Because it's a part of my life, you know? Does your husband know that your ex is still on your social media? Yeah. Does your partner have

an ex on his social media? I don't think so. Does Ryan have former flames up there? I don't think so, but I don't think that would have been... You don't care? No, I wouldn't care. No, I wouldn't care. I mean we've all got pasts right? Exactly right Exactly right. Yeah. It is interesting though

to think that like when you have kids that eventually they'll start going back through your social media. One day they're going to want to know who mum and dad used to be and they'll go through I'll go back and then they'll get to a point and they'll go Oh who's that dad? Who's this lady? Although I've done that with my own parents.

Yeah. Not on their social medias, but, you know, looked through old yearbooks that mum and dad have had and said, oh, which one was your boyfriend, mum? Have they got photos of the ex in the family photo album? Because that's what it's the equivalent of. Yeah, I guess it is. That is true.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Let's poll the people this afternoon and ask the question, after a breakup, do you delete your ex off social media or are they still up there? What's your rule? Everybody's rule is going to be different, but how do you deal with it in your relationship?

And even more interestingly, did your current partner ask you to take down photos? Yeah, that's a good one. Did someone say, hey, I'm not comfortable with the pictures of you and them still being on your social media? Would you take them down? And did you do it?

Or did you go, get out of here? The great thing is there's no right or wrong answer here. No, there's not. We're just interested in your take on it. I'm just curious, yeah. So we've been asking you, do you delete your partner from social media? Or have you asked your partner to delete their ex from

theirs? Someone said, my husband and I separated. I left pics of us. It was a big part of my life and I'd hate for my kids to see that as well. You know, me deleting their dad. I just posted a bit to bump them down the list. Oh, fill the feed. Yeah, which is clever. So they're still there

but you have to scroll a bit to see them. Yeah, I the feed. Yeah, which is clever. So they're still there but you have to scroll a bit to see them. Yeah, I get that. Do you archive the pictures of your ex just in case you get back together? Because that's not deleting them, it just moves them off your feed and then if you end up back together you can just reinstate them and go, no, what do you mean?

Smart. They were there all along. Let's talk to Caleb. Hey Caleb. Hey, how are you? We're good. What's your rule with a breakup when it comes to pictures of the ex on social media? Oh, yeah, definitely delete that stuff for sure. Nobody really wants to see your cringy monthly anniversary post. That is a whole other part of it, eh?

When the memories come up and you're like, ooh, yuck, who was I? So have you done this or this is just a rule that you would follow? Oh, yeah, it's a rule I've done always. But like you guys were talking about family photos before in the family photo book. Yeah.

My parents have left my ex on the wall. Oh. In the family photo, like, yeah. So when you go home, you have to be reminded of your failed relationship. Yeah, I get a bit of a lecture from my current partner every time I go to my parents. Wait, you've moved on

and your parents still haven't taken the pictures down? Oh, yeah, bro, yeah. Have you brought it up with your parents? I actually haven't, but I think that's a good reminder too. I can't remember the time she was like, that's savage from your career. Mum's like,

but I look good in the photo. On that topic, we said, do you delete pictures of your ex? Someone said, if I look like a 10 out of 10 in the picture, I'll be leaving it up. Thank you very much. That actually would be my philosophy as well. And they go, who's that guy in the photo? I don't know. I don't care. I look cute.

How did you see anybody in that photo except me? Rawa is here. Hi, Rawa. Hello. What is your rule when it comes to social media and exes and pictures? I actually don't care, to be honest. I had an old Facebook

account with my ex-husband and I did close it for a bit and I got it back because I was like oh my gosh I'm really missing like not him but I'm missing my photos you know yeah yeah but you got rid of the whole when you broke up you got rid of the whole account yes I mean I just closed it I deactivated I didn't like delete it um so I just thought okay um I want to go back and see myself like you know 10 years ago how I was and so on. And, yeah, like, I thought I'd like pictures of me and my friends.

So when they have their birthdays, I'm like, okay, I really want to put a picture together, like, you know, memories and so on for their birthdays. And I still have his photos and some photos are tagged, so I can't really delete them. And I'm like, you know what? I do look good. You do, you, girlfriend. Yeah. You may have given that person. I'm married again and my husband knows and he just doesn't care.

He's got his ex-girlfriend on his Instagram. And I found out actually that I found out like last year and I was like, oh, actually, I don't care. Yeah. Like at first I was like, wait, did you ever call me this? Yeah, I was going to say, did you have to check with yourself whether you cared for a second? I did. I was like, wait, actually, I don't care. Yeah, like at first I was like, wait, he didn't call me this. Yeah, I was going to say, did you have to check with yourself whether you cared for a second? I did.

Like, I was like, wait, he never told me. I cared because he never told me. Wait, he never told me that he had girlfriends before, man. Okay, thank you, Rawa. We appreciate it. Someone said my mum still has a photo of me and my ex as her phone screen. That's bad. My

current partner is not happy about it. Mum, come on. Mum's a petty sometimes. Oh, I was thinking it was like a boomer technology thing, but no, you're totally right. Mum's doing it on purpose. I don't know how to change it. I don't know how to get rid of that picture of Anna.

Oh God, wasn't Anna wonderful? Yeah. She never should have broken up with her. You screwed that one up. You really screwed that one up. This is very exciting for the residents of Stuart Island. We get some amazing celebrities that travel around this country, right? Yeah. And you often see posts, you know, someone's maybe over on Waiheke having a wine or they're down in

Queenstown enjoying the snow. And we get invested in these celebrities that travel around the country. But often thus, you know, you might catch glimpses of them, but they're very private and they're doing their own thing. And fair enough. A lot of the time they don't want you to know that they're here. Totally. This is an escape. Yes. And so it might not be until after

the fact that you even realise that such a big star was in our country. Not the case for 90s heartthrob sitcom TV icon David Hasselhoff. He's in Stewart Island? He's in Stewart Island. He's on Stewart Island. Of all places. Yeah. And he's not just there alone. He's there with Island? He's in Stewart Island. He's on Stewart Island. Of all places. Yeah.

And he's not just there alone. He's there with Rhys Darby. From Flight of the Conchords. From Flight of the Conchords. They're hanging out together. Yeah. And the best thing about this is this isn't one of these stories where they're just laying low and doing their own thing.

They're over on Stewart Island getting amongst it. Yeah. Weren't they at a pub quiz or something? They went to the weekly Stewart Island pub quiz. Yeah. Unreal. And not only did they go, they didn't just happen to turn up to the bar and sit at the bar quietly while this pub quiz went in.

They joined a team. Yeah. It's unreal. So I thought we'd better have a chat to someone about what on earth was going on, how this happened. So please welcome to the show David Hasselhoff's quiz teammate, Jim Turrell. Hi, Jim. Hey, Jim. Hi, how are we getting on?

Are you friends with David Hasselhoff? Oh, yeah, we're old buddies from way back. Jim, this is a wild story, and we had to start at the beginning. How the hell did David Hasselhoff end up at this quiz night? We heard a wee rumour that he was visiting the island. Yeah. He's actually here for a bit of work

making a TV programme alongside Rhys Darby, as you said. And, yeah, they've been hanging out for a couple of days, mixing with the locals, and sure enough, they just turned up at the pub quiz last night. So it was very exciting. Okay, I got lots and lots of questions. First one, how did David Hasselhoff go in a South Island, not even a South Island, a Stuart Island pub quiz?

And what was his specialty category? What did he bring to the team? Well, I don't want this to sound the wrong way, but his specialist category was himself. I mean, in the nicest possible way. Oh, so they really targeted it, knowing he was going to be there. Yeah, there might have been a few set of questions there about Knight Rider and Baywatch.

I have to say, I love Knight Rider. I was such a big fan of that growing up as a kid. And I would have loved to watch Baywatch, but my dad wouldn't let me. He recorded it on the VHS and watched it later. I'm sure he did. Alone time for dead. I was such a big fan of that growing up as a kid. And I would have loved to watch Baywatch, but my dad wouldn't let me. He recorded it on the VHS and watched it later. I'm sure he did. Alone time for dad. What's he like as a guy?

Was he good to have a beer with, David Hasselhoff? Yeah, he was actually. I mean, you remember him as, like I say, running along the beach in his togs. And he's obviously aged a wee bit since then. But he was an absolute gentleman. It was quite entertaining because we were just basking in this beautiful stewart island sunshine i couldn't believe how warm and sunny it was and they were wrapped up with their puffer jackets and their woolly hats and they couldn't believe how cold it was big question did you guys win the quiz night oh well actually uh it was very close um we actually ended up tying for first place,

but we lost in a very dramatic tiebreaker. What was the tiebreaker? Was it a question? It was a paper aeroplane competition this time. And Rhys Darby sort of very bravely stepped up to the challenge for us. And young Sophie Connor, who's a local girl on the island here, she stepped up for the other team.

And Sophie did a great job here. She folded up a paper airplane and it literally flew the length of the pub. Poor old Rhys Darby. He's got a bit soaked in some third island gin and it didn't play so well. Hey, well, if you want to, I can't guarantee you'll get to meet David Hasselhoff,

but if you want to meet Jim from Stewart Island, go and pay a visit at the Stewart Island Distillery. That's where you guys are down there and you guys just won an award for your gin, Jim. Yeah, that's right, Matty. Yeah, we've started a distillery down here literally just in the last couple of months, and we were pretty humbled by how well it's going, actually. It's been quite amazing.

Yeah. And managed to pick up a gold medal at the Junipers at the New Zealand Gin Awards. Awesome. So we're pretty excited about that. And, yeah, orders are coming in thick and fast at the moment. That's Jim, who hung out with not only Rhys Darby, but David Hasselhoff last night on Stewart Island. Thanks, Jim!

Thanks, Matty. Take care. See you later. He has no idea I'm here, does he? No, he doesn't, no. I told you, it's my show. Yeah, true, true. It's the Matdie and Friends show I gotta remember that

written on the bill so oh like a no no not one of those did you know mutual friend of ours

well mutual acquaintance of ours um did you know the story about the guy who gave the lady at the lotto store

his phone number on a scratchy I'm aware I know the story the scratchy who gave the lady at the lotto store his phone number on a scratchy? I'm aware. I know the story. The scratchy won like $3 and he took it up to claim the scratchy and she gave him the $3 and he was like, there's something on the back of that scratchy for you. It worked though, didn't it?

Yeah, it did work. We're getting way sidetracked here, but I did once leave my number for a flight attendant on the back of a New Zealand sick bag. That's right. We've talked about that. Yeah. And it didn't work.

Didn't work. Not only not gay, married with children. Yeah. Hasn't stopped someplace. True. Shoot your shot, babes. This was not one of those notes. Right.

The waitress, she had served a husband and wife table that evening. And then on the back of the, on the bill, next to the bit where you write how much the tip is, was it a, hey, we noticed you from afar and we liked your vibe. Come home with us. No. No. Man, I'm striking out all over the place.

The opposite of that, again, in the space where you fill out tip, it says tip and it's got a blank spot. They wrote, don't call my husband sweetheart. Yeah. Their tip was, don't call my husband sweetheart. Wow. She was so insecure about this waitress calling her husband sweetheart that she felt the need to send a PASAG note.

Here's a tip. Here's a tip. Here's a tip for you. Sugar tips. Get your hooks tip. Sugar tits. Claws. Get your hooks out of my hubby. Hugely insecure. And it's just hospitality.

If she's calling you sweetheart in front of your wife, she's just trying to be cutesy. Totally. Right? I just imagine like a waitress from like an American diner being like, hey, sweetheart, what do you want? Yeah, something like that. Yeah. Here's your fry, sweetheart.

My theory is that this woman suffers from hot partner syndrome. Ah. Where she has a super hot partner. And you always think when you get a super hot partner, that's what you want. But actually, you're going to spend the rest of your life going, oh, everyone's attracted to my partner. Oh, that person's hotter than me,

and they're talking to my partner. I'm familiar. I'm familiar. Maddie and I are both punching in our relationship. Oh man, are we what? And man, people remind us of it all the time. I said to Ryan recently, I said, do you know how many people say to me,

God, your husband's hot? Yeah. And I said, has anyone ever said that to you about me? And he went, oh, and I went, that's a no. You should have just said yes. Yeah. All you had to do was lie and say, yeah, all the time. But do not miss a beat.

Well, he missed the bloody beat. I get, because my wife is very attractive, and I get, man, your wife is hot. And I'm like, yeah, I know. And they're like, don't screw this up, man. They're like, bro, don't screw this up. You're like, cool, I wasn't planning on it. Thanks. Don't, okay?

Don't screw it up. I thought this afternoon we could ask the question, we could open the hot partner hotline and we could ask the question, does your partner get hit on a lot? Are they so attractive that whether intentionally or unintentionally, people just end up flirting with your partner? In front of you, especially.

And you can tell. You know. Maybe people just go a little bit like gooey, a little bit doughy around your partner and they can't help it because your partner is so attractive. Give us a call on 0800 dials at M. We can leave your name out of it if you want, or you can name and shame your super hot partner if you like.

It's completely up to you. 0800-DARLS-ZM. Text your stories to 9696 as well. We want to know this afternoon, have you got a super hot partner? And what's life like? And do they get hit on a lot? And are me and Maddie hot too?

Yeah, babe, we're hot. We're hot. This lady got angry because the waitress was calling her husband sweetheart. And someone said, I love how you guys are doing the segment about the sweetheart comment. And yet the two of you have called each other babe at least four times this afternoon since you went on air today. I did catch myself calling you babe before. Well, that's fine babes. I'm fine

with you calling me babes. Call me whatever you want. Whatever you do, just make sure you call me. So we're asking if you've got a super hot partner. Someone said my husband is six foot five, brown hair, bright blue eyes, capital letters. I can see you staring at him.

He's ignorant as shit though. Is there a photo attached to that? That's what you want. You want a big dumb idiot who doesn't know that people are hitting on them, right? And that's usually the way it goes as well. My partner gets random calls from

Instagram accounts in the middle of the night that he's had no previous communication with. Are you serious? Someone's shooting their shot with an Instagram phone call. Yeah. Your partner needs to make their Instagram private. Private. Or at least they need to block the

calls. Alyssa's called up. Hi, Alyssa. Hello. Hey, you're in a safe place. This is the Hot Partner Hotline. Have you got a super hot partner and is it an issue? I do. So, before we were dating, he had an Instagram and it had like 18,000

followers and he's like deleted it. Okay. And at like right about the start of our relationship, we'd go to the gym together. Yeah. And there'd be like milk, like actual milk. These mums in their 50s just looking at him while we're at the gym together. How old is your partner?

He's 19 at the moment. He's 19 and he has a 50-year-old milk problem. Mm-hmm. And it's better. Yeah. Because once my teacher goes to the same gym as him. And your teacher, you reckon your teacher is hitting on your partner?

In front of me, yeah. Oh. And is he aware of this? He is 100% aware and he's digging it. Oh, he likes it. He likes the attention. Yeah. Well, Alyssa, can we just say we can't see you, he likes it. He likes the attention. Yeah.

Well, Alyssa, can we just say, we can't see you, but Maddie and I think you're super hot. We reckon you've got 20,000 Instagram followers. If you don't, you deserve them. Thanks for calling the Hot Partner Helpline. Me and my friend were watching my partner's rugby game and she said, oh, that number 12 is hot. Number 12? My partner.

Awkward. Someone said, my partner. Awkward. Someone said, my husband is a police officer. I have to admit that in the uniform, he is pretty hot. Whenever he goes into nightclubs, apparently girls drape themselves over him and always take photos with him. I'm lucky that I don't work with him, so I only get to hear about it the next day.

Catherine's called up the Hot Partner Helpline. Hi, Catherine. Hi. Safe space. Have you got a hot partner, Catherine? I have such a hot partner. He's my husband and obviously I'm biased, but I think he's absolutely gorgeous. He's like six foot two, very tall,

very like full of head of hair. Yeah. But I think the best thing about him is he doesn't know that he's absolutely gorgeous. He's like six foot two, very tall, very like full of head of hair. Yeah. But I think the best thing about him is he doesn't know that he's hot. Yeah. He's shy and super like, I don't know, he has like no self-esteem,

which is I think how I bagged him because I'm pretty average. But he's like absolutely gorgeous. Yeah. And he's like so loyal and nerdy and I just know like he would never cheat on me. And we're not big partiers,

but on the few times we have gone out, he always gets hit on by either like cougars or gay guys. Okay. Gay guys are filthy. I literally just take a step back and like laugh from a distance, and he's staring at me to be like, save me. You're like, nah, this is your problem, you big, hot idiot. Yeah, if you want to be hot, deal with it.

Can I say, Ketrin, the way you speak about him, it kind of sounds like you're talking about a Great Dane. You're like, he's tall, he's got a great coat, gorgeous, so loyal but so stupid. And also, we have a lot of lesbian friends. I just seem to attract them to the point where they recognise

how gorgeous he is and I've orchestrated him to be their sperm donor and so he has given them two children and those children

are also gorgeous oh my god he's hot and he's generous with his sperm what more can you ask for we love you too

Catherine you sound great it's not like he has to do a whole lot. Yeah. Oh, my God. He's like a stud. Yeah.

Put him under pressure. You're breeding him. He's got a good life. Thank you, Catherine. We appreciate it. Someone's text and they said, we're talking about people whose partner is like unhealthily hot, like too hot for them.

They said, my partner is so far out of my league that people must think that I'm a make-a-wish child. She's a 10 and I'm a 6 in a dark room facing the opposite direction. It's important to know where you stand in the relationship because then you've got different powers and different abilities from your position so long as you acknowledge where you are. But they are funny. Funny. Yeah, you're funny.

They're hot, but you're funny. Does that help? I don't know. ZM's Brinkland with guest host, Matty McLean. Once upon a time, there was a Matty. I don't know. what he's attempting today. Bree and Clint's What's the Plot? The Rom-Com Edition with Maddie McLean. All Rom-Coms all the time. That's Maddie's special category. It is my go... If Ryan and I are picking a movie,

I immediately want to go to a Rom-Com. Yep, I get it. And because of that, you're the expert. So to beat you is going to be no mean feat. But Ingrid's up to the challenge. G'day, Ingrid. Kia ora, Sam. How are we?

Oh, you sound confident. Okay. You love a rom-com as much as Maddie, Ingrid? Just movies in general, I think. All right. Can I ask what year you were born? 84. Perfect. Perfect.

Perfect. I said that Claudia has picked rom-coms exclusively from one year. According to the internet, the greatest year of the rom-com, 1999. Yeah, I was going to say late 90s, early 2000s. Yeah. The category has not done well in recent years. They've been a bit cheesy, really. But these will smash hit movies, all of these ones.

So, Ingrid, I'll start reading plot lines from the start. If you think you know the movie, you buzz in as soon as you think you know it with your name and have a guess, okay? Awesome. Whichever one of you gives me two correct movies first is going to win the game. And if that's you, Ingrid, you'll get 50 bucks cash. Good luck. Awesome. Here comes the first rom- to win the game. And if that's you, Ingrid, you'll get 50 bucks cash. Good luck. Here comes the first rom-com from the year 1999. Our hero is beautiful, smart,

and quite abrasive to most of her fellow teens, meaning that she doesn't attract many boys. Unfortunately, Ingrid. 10 things I hate about you. Oh, damn. Wow. That was good, Ingrid. Really good.

Were you confident in the answer or is there an element of guess in there? I thought it was earlier. I was waiting for you to say a character's name. Yeah, I was waiting for a character's name too. I generally won't say a character's name just so you guys know. I'll try and keep character names out of it.

Here we go. Ingrid, you have the upper hand. One more and you win the game. Man. And Hand Matty's first ever What's the Plot? Rom-Com Edition defeat. No pressure. Rom-Com number two from the year 1999.

A baby-faced junior copywriter at the Chicago... Maddie. Yeah, Maddie. It's never been kissed. It's my favourite. It's my favourite. What was the name of the newspaper? The Chicago Sun-Times. Yeah, well done.

Thank you. Yeah, good. Josie Grossie. We're all tied up, Ingrid. I need to pick one that I think is in both of your wheelhouse, to be fair. Let's go with this one. Movie number three. Having already left three grooms at the altar.

Maddie. Maddie. Runaway Bride. No! Too good. three grooms at the altar. Maddie, Maddie, runaway bride. No! Well done. Too good. Ingrid, you don't get the 50 bucks cash,

but you get the consolation prize of 50 KFC chicken dollars. That's awesome. Thank you so much. Thanks for giving it a go. You were a worthy episode. You gave me a run for my money, Ingrid.

Thank you. Took it right to the end. Okay, sweet. ZM's Brie and Clint with Maddie McLean. Time for, sweet. ZM's Bree and Clint. With Maddie McLean. Time for a birthday banger. Bree and Clint.

Congratulations. Woohoo, awesome. Let's do it. From 2004, here's Day Hummel on ZM with Clint and Maddie. Maddie told us a story about a dad who... Where did it come from, this story? This came from Twitter.

Someone saying, I remember my dad, when I was growing up, said to me, the first time I needed to get something signed for school, like a parental form. Yeah, permission slip. Permission slip. The dad said, don't get me to sign it, because then you've got to learn how to forge my signature. Why don't you just sign it,

and then you can use your own signature on anything and they'll never know. He said, you need to know this the first time. So I'm imagining this kid is like five years old wants to go to papa and the dad's like, listen here you little goody two shoes.

So if I ask you the dodgiest thing that your parents taught you, no one's willing to come on the radio and talk about these but they were happy to text us about them. Someone said, my dad taught me how to roll ciggies while he was driving down rural roads. Very bumpy, lol. That is a skill. Rolling a cigarette with one hand is a skill.

Doing it while driving, even more of a skill. Doing it on a rural road, even more of a skill. Doing it on a rural road, even more of a skill. Ryan's parents learned very quickly to teach him to go and pick up booze for them for their Saturday night house parties on the farm. How old was he? Like a teenager. And what, the local booze store just knew him? Yeah.

The booze store's like, there's no way a kid could drink all this alcohol. No, he would drive them to this store. Oh, he'd drive them there. Oh, I don't see a problem with that. Someone said my dad accidentally taught me that if I wanted him to do something he wouldn't approve of to cover my tracks really well,

sort an alibi and double down on my story, he could never prove me wrong. You're saying your dad accidentally taught you that? Your dad made you as dodgy as you are? Not dodgy, but mum taught me how to ride the clutch when learning how to drive. She said it was the easiest way to learn.

Oh, I feel like you're ragging on mum's driving skills there. My parents taught me nothing dodgy. I was still watching the Disney channel at 17. I was too scared to watch anything else and I was too scared to have snuck out or replaced the gin with water. I absolutely missed out.

Yeah, but I bet you had an absolute blowout when you turned 19. I bet you turned into a real rebel. That was me that takes that. Was it really? Yeah. My biological dad, dad's in quotation marks, taught my sister how to steal boats.

Oh, God. I'm talking like boats worth over $100,000. She was 16 at the time and they stole over 20 boats. What? Whoa. Okay, well, that sounds like one of the plot lines from Ozark. I was going to say, that's not, I mean,

it's not clever. It's just criminal. It's fine, though. It fits the brief of what we asked for. Any other new ones in here? I had my firearms license before I could legally drive on my own. And I remember Dad once saying to me,

a restraining order is just a piece of paper. Don't worry, I just shoot animals and targets. Well, that's good to know. And what's your dad doing? A restraining order is just a piece of paper. No, Dad, a restraining order is just a piece of paper. No, Dad. A restraining order is a legal document that prohibits you from seeing the person who took the restraining order

out against you. Signed by the guy whose dad taught him how to sign paperwork as a kid. ZM's Brie and Clint with guest host Maddie McLean. Television bloopers are great when they happen. Aren't they? Brie and I have tried to figure out why they're so good

and I think it's because TV is generally perfect. You are seeing kind of a glossy version of things, right? Yeah, it's not real life. And it's meant to be slick. Yeah, it's meant to be smooth. It needs to move on quickly. So when someone balls it up, often the cast of the live television show don't know where to move on quickly. So when someone balls it up, often the cast of the live television show

don't know where to go. No. And it's only live ones that are funny. Yeah. You would know this from your job. And this has happened in New Zealand just last night to esteemed broadcaster, incredible broadcaster,

smart, Kanoa Lloyd on the project, um, which, which goes to show it happens to the best of us. It absolutely does. Uh, she,

she, she came a cropper in a conversation about the new Cadbury Roses flavours that have come out. And we'll let the clip do the talking. Here's Kanoa on the project. Strawberry cream, orange cream and peppermint cream and making a cum box. Cum box? Come back is the term, I believe.

Nice. The show is going well Everything's going well So yeah So there's the roses chocolates It's a Kiwi tradition You know things are going bad When the people in the production office

They cut to me to steady the ship Oh that poor woman. It does happen to the best of them. It does happen to the best of them. The good news is, unless she didn't say the F word... Oh, f***, my thing's falling out. Q, you're on air, you're on air, you're on air, you're on air, you're on air. Morning, welcome back to Breakfast.

I'm so sorry, I just lost my communications. The head of UK's Metropolitan Police has insisted they had serious and reliable intelligence that protesters had planned to disrupt Saturday's coronation. Could have been worse, eh? Thank you. Just when we move past that. I love that one, how swiftly you go into serious news, Guy Moe, and you don't even acknowledge it at all.

You're just like, that'll be fine. Jenny's mate is like, you're on air, you idiot! But luckily that's the only time Matty's ever made a mistake on air. The only time. Well, hello, it's me, but a different me because I'm a changed man after last night. Adele was incredible. I'm sure we'll talk about her throughout the morning,

but first of all, let's check out what is happening around the weather with your country, the country with your weather. Sorry, it was a long night. I was home late, and it's Friday as well. But anyway. Let's check out your what? Look, country is not a good word to stumble over. It's not a good word.

It's not a good word. No, there's no more. Luckily, they didn't introduce a country fudge flavour to the new Cadbury Roses box because that could have been a real disaster, couldn't it? It happens to the best of us. Yeah. ZM's Bray and Clint.

With guest host Maddie McLean. Karen Nimmo is a clinical psychologist and she's published a list of the six things that people crave the most outside of money. A bubble bath. Oh. Do you do baths? Yeah, I love a bath.

So much admin involved with a bath. Not really. You turn the tap on and you leave it for 15 minutes and you come back and you hop in. And then what do you do? Sit there? Read? Nah, not for me.

Put some TV on? Have you got a TV in your bath? No, like a little iPad set up? I've done that before. I've tried to do that before. Watch an episode of Sex and the City? Hang out with Carrie and the gals while you're having a little bubble bath? How cute.

I'm too fidgety. I'm also too weirded out by the fact that I'm naked. Oh, it's floating. She said as a psychologist, she gets asked, she asks people all the time, do yours truly yours floats? It does. It stands up.

I don't have many baths. So when I have a bath, it's a real novelty. Oh, there it is. It's just bobbing around. Little mushroom. She asks people what they want. That's her job. She's a psychologist. I sit down on her couch. She goes, what do you want? So she's put a list together of the

top six things that she hears the most. Number one, people want to be happy. It's an obvious one, eh? Claire. She said, if you want to be happy, you need to know what happiness means to you. Totally. Like, there's no point going, I don't know why I'm not happy. Because I know why you're not happy.

Because you haven't defined the thing that will make you happy. You're aimlessly wandering around in this world just hoping to become happy. So you've got to have tangible things. Okay, this is what happiness looks like to me. Or these are the things in my life that would make me the happiest. Yeah, exactly right. God, this is a free psychology that we're the happiest. Yeah, exactly right. God, this is a free psychology

that we're giving out. You're welcome. Number two, the second thing people want, a quiet, calm mind. That makes me sad, that one,

that people within their own minds and I know that they do have such a frantic existence. Totally. And it's not even, for some people

it's just that they literally just can't stop thinking. Yeah, exactly. I find it really hard to switch their brains off. And it's not even, for some people, it's just that they literally just can't stop thinking. Yeah, exactly. I find it really hard to switch their brains off. Overthinkers, anxious thinkers, that sort of thing. Number three, the things that people crave the most, more excitement.

People want a more exciting life. I have a theory that that's why a lot of affairs happen. Yeah, right. Because people get too comfortable. Yeah, and they'll worry that they're boring. They'll worry that they're boring or that their life is boring or life is passing them by. So they go and do something reckless for a bit of excitement.

I think the more we talk about the fact that we're all boring, people are just as a whole pretty boring, right? I think as a human being your goal is to become boring. Yeah. Like, not boring, right? I think as a human being, your goal is to become boring. Yeah. Like, not boring per se, but like,

I don't mean predictable in a negative way, but for your life to be predictable, it means it's stable, right? Every now and then I'll think, God, am I too boring? Like, do I not have enough going on in my life? And then I talk to my friends and they're like, no. No, you're in your mid-30s. You're normal.

Yeah. What do people crave? The top six things. Number four, more me time. This is a big one for parents. They want something to do that's just them. And that's why guys in their 30s start playing golf. Yeah.

Easier said than done, though. Totally easier said than done. Golf is such a weird one. My mates that get away with golf, who get to go out for six hours on the weekend and play golf and then come home half drunk, I'm like, your wife deserves some kind of medal because you've cheated the system. Six things that people want.

Number five, to contribute to the greater good. I get this one. I love that. People who want purpose in their life. Yeah. And to feel like they've left a mark, right? Yeah, and I reckon people who do a job which is where you work for a big business or something

and that's not cause-driven, you probably hit a point of your life where you go, I want to give back. Yeah. I want to volunteer. So that's a good thing to want to do, I think. Totally. And it's achievable.

And the number one thing that people want outside, or the number six thing rather, outside of money that people want, they want to be loved. Everybody wants to be loved. I love that. So not too much to ask for, is it? No.

Be loved, be exciting, and have money. It's all we need is people. If we can get that, we'll all be fine. Z-Dame's Brand Clint. On Insta, Facebook, TikTok, and live. it's all we need is people if we can get that we'll all be fine
