That to celebrate International Women's Day We've removed All women from the show Not intentionally But it's kind of just worked out that way, you know? We love women, though. In different

ways. Speaking of women, there's an interview that's on right now in which one woman is attempting to bring down the entire royal family. The Meghan Markle interview, by all accounts, we haven't seen it properly

yet, but it is scandalous. I'm following it. Yeah. It's going to be very hard to wait until it airs on TV3 tomorrow night. Yeah, I know. Like, no one's going to be able to sit back and just go don't talk to, don't tell me, don't tell me, don't tell me what happens. Well, am I right in thinking it's playing at the moment on Spark Sport?

No, I think Ben's got his channels confused. Oh, I see. Surely they're not streaming it. Surely they haven't gone. Well, the cricket's over. It does sound like a sport though. It sounds like a boxing match. True, yeah. Today we've got two chances for you to win ZM Secret Sound at four and five if you can get through but let's kick it off with Tradie vs Lady.

We're for International Women's Day and it's a women's only round of Tradie vs Lady. Maybe it's going to be Lady vs Lady. Maybe it's going to be Lady vs. Lady. Maybe it's going to be Lady Tradie vs. Lady. It doesn't matter. But if you want to play, 0800 dial ZM. There's 50 bucks cash up for grabs.

And we'll play after Justin Bieber enchants the rapper on ZM. I hear a lot about sadness. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. Tradies versus ladies. Welcome to Tradies versus Ladies, everybody, where a lady takes on a tradie, and today for International Women's Day,

all of the contestants are ladies. It's only right. Who usually wins out of the tradie versus the lady? You know, we started keeping a tally, and then we kind of forgot about it, so not 100% sure, to be honest, Maddie. Let's meet contestant number one. She's a lady, and she's also a truck driver.

Welcome to the show, Stacey. Hi, Stacey. Hi. What sort of truck do you drive? Oh, it's just like a little freight truck. Are you on the road at the moment? No. No, not at the moment.

Good. I was hoping you could toot the horn for us or something. Oh, it's not even impressive anyway. Okay. All right. Well, glad you're not in it then. Let's meet the tradie that you're taking on. She's 24 and she just got engaged.

Welcome our lady tradie, Jayden. Hi, Jayden. Hello. Hi. What sort of trade do you do? I'm actually an apprentice builder. Very cool. Okay, Maddie is the quiz master today. It's first to three correct answers.

Stacey, your buzzer is lady, and Jaden, your buzzer is tradie. Good luck, everybody. You ready? Yes, ready. Okay, here we go. First question. The Harry and Meghan Oprah interview is screening right now. I hear Meghan's about to bring down the monarchy.

What colour hair does Prince Harry have? Lady. Lady. Stacey? Ginger? Correct. One to the ladies. Question number two.

Provided we don't have another lockdown, the America's Cup will start this Wednesday. Who are we racing? Is it Team Gucci, Team Deadly Ponies or Team Prada? Jodie? Lovie? Jaden? Prada?

Correct. Team Deadly Ponies would be quite good too. I do like that. Just a bunch of drunk Auckland chicks out on a boat with big sunglasses. Just drinking at Prego all afternoon. Yeah, that'd be a great race. Okay, one all.

Good luck, guys. Okay, question number three. The cast of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under has been announced. True or false, there's a drag queen on the show called Briscoe. Lady? Lady. Stacey. True?

Incorrect. It was a good name, though. Briscoe would be a great drag name. I do like that name. But no, that's incorrect. So scores are still level. Okay, question number four. It's International Women's Day.

Who run the world? Trady. Jaden. Girls. Yeah. Nice. Okay. You may have seen me, Manny McLean, on TVNZ's Breakfast show before.

What channel is that show on? Lady. Stacey, to tie it up. TV1. Correct. Okay, we're at deadlock. Whoever gets this next question correct wins the game. Okay, in the last week, we have successfully survived a lockdown,

a tsunami, and a visit from the Australian cricket team. What a way to win summer. What season comes next? Lady. Stacey, for the win. Autumn. Autumn. She's a lady.

Oh, oh, oh, she's a lady. Well done, Stacey. We've got $50 cash for you. Thank you so much. Happy Women's Day. Who run the world? Stacey. Maddy, did you collect the...

Just to change topic completely, did you collect the smeg knives? See, I was a pack and save guy when I lived out west. Yes. So I've only recently moved into the city, so the New World thing is quite new to me. Right. So I was very late to the piece in collecting the stickers.

So I didn't get there fast enough. You didn't get any Smeg knives? I got none. Did you know that New World over summer gave out 1.2 million Smeg knives? And it still wasn't enough. Did you get them? Yeah, I got the whole set. The whole set?

Yeah, I got them all. I didn't get the knife block, but I actually didn't want the knife block. We've got a magnet. Anyway, it's not about me. It's not about me. Okay? It's about about me, okay? It's about smeg knives and how dangerous they are. Have you ever handled one?

No. Turns out that Kiwis, as much as we wanted these smeg knives, weren't quite ready for how good they actually were. Because I guess if you've just been using crusty warehouse knives your whole life. That's all you know. That's all you know. And then you unsheath a razor sharp butcher style knife. And all of a sudden it's like sword in the stone kind of.

Totally. So it's an interesting stat that says from, for the three months from November 2020, there have been 23 ACC claims for injuries with the word smeg and knife promotion included in the description box. Specifically from a smeg knife. Yeah, 23 specifically recorded smeg

knife injuries and I can attest to that we're a smeg knife family and my wife has cut quite deep into her finger with it because the knives are so good. My friend cut all the way through the tip of his fingernail with the smeg knife and had to go to A&E. And there's still, this is how obsessed we are with these bloody knives,

there's still news stories coming out with people going, watch out, even three months on, the smeg knives are still sharp enough to cut right through the tip of your finger. It's like those old infomercials that you'd see at two o'clock in the morning where they'd cut through cans. And they'd cut through a shoe? Yes. The one where they show, this knife is... And they'd cut through a shoe? Yes. The one where they show this knife is so good

you can cut through a leather boot. I mean, I don't want to try, but I'd say they are. Yeah. I mean, if I'd got a bonus knife, I would have sacrificed one to try and cut through a piece of wood or something. But I don't want to damage my good smig knife. No, no, no.

Especially if they're not in the block. They go for like $9,000 on Trade Me. Not actually, but you know. Far out. We want to know this afternoon on 0800Diles.com, have you smegged yourself? Have you had a smeg knife injury? That sounds disgusting.

True, actually. I'd forgot what the other meaning of that word is. We're sticking with it, okay? We've launched it. Have you smegged yourself? Have you smegged yourself? 0800Diles.com Or you can text us on 9696

with your smeg knife injuries and we'll get you on air next. Bree and Clint. This is how obsessed we are with the smeg knives. This is one of the leading stories on one of the main news sites in New Zealand today. Kiwi woman serves cautionary tale after slicing finger with popular smeg knife.

How many were sold? 1.2 million. 1.2 million of the sharpest knives you've ever seen in your goddamn life. Great knives. Like I said before, I've got the whole set. But with great knives comes great responsibility. Because you're coming off knives, I reckon, that have been in your flat for like the last five years

and you probably inherited them from your brother who moved out of his flat and said, do you want our old knives? And then you get these and like you said, they're sharp enough to cut through concrete. So we want to know this afternoon, have you ever smegged yourself?

A lot of people have. A lot of people have. And how did you treat it? And are you okay? And what are you dialing with if you don't have fingers anymore? Hi Nicole. Hello. Have you ever smegged yourself?

Yes, so this is really pathetic but I get acrylic nails and I just had them done and the same day I got my first smeg knife and I somehow managed to chop one of my acrylic nails off.

Whoa! Thank God it wasn't one of your real nails. I know. But that's a pain in the ass, right? Yeah, it was so, so gutted. How do acrylic nails work? Like, can you get that half cut one taken off and get a new one put on

or do you have to wait until it drops off? You've got half a nail until it just falls off by itself. Oh, no, they can like put an extension on it and like fix it for you. They've got half a nail until it just falls off by itself. Oh, no. They can, like, put an extension on it and, like, fix it for you. They put one on top of that one and then you've just got, like, a double stacker or something like that.

Oh, no, no, no. They, like, file it back and then just, like, recoat it. Yeah. It wasn't a Monica and Friends situation where you didn't realise until you started digging into the lasagna and found the nail, was it?

Yeah. Jessica, hi. Hi. Smeg knives. Have you smegged yourself? I smegged myself on Christmas Eve and spent half a Christmas day in A&E. You know what? I reckon there would have been so, because we were buying them at Christmas, eh, Jessica?

Yeah. We were buying all the groceries at New World, and so we're getting all the stickers, and then we're getting the knives ready for Christmas. I reckon Christmas Day would have been a major. Talk me through your injury and the recovery. What did it look like? It was to my ring finger and I

sliced pretty much my entire fingerprint off. You went over that bit. Did you go into A&E with it dangling off your finger? Well no, we wrapped it the night before thinking it would be fine and then the next day, the minute the nurse unwrapped it because we could see the red oozing through the bandage,

she said, you're lucky you don't need stitches but we're going to need that silver nitrate stuff to cauterise it. Oh, man. It pretty much was a flap. She said she couldn't take the flap off. It needed to just fall off on its own. How is it now? How is it now?

It's a totally new fingerprint now. Yeah, you can go and commit a crime now and they won't even know that it's you because you've got new fingerprints. Yeah, just that one finger. Epic smegging, Jessica. Thank you for sharing. Finally, anonymous.

This person wants to remain anonymous. Right. Welcome to the show. Have you smegged yourself? Yes, I have smegged myself, including our whole household of three adults. We've all managed to do it. A smeg fest. Yeah.

Right. What did you do, Anonymous? How'd you do it? So all three of us, similar injuries, just a finger cut. They weren't bad enough to need stitches, but it was kind of on the verge where you sort of think, maybe I should get that looked at. Yeah, right. Still worth it, though? Worth it to get the smeg knives? Questionable. I couldn't bath the kids for a few days. I had to get everyone else to kind of

come help me because I couldn't put my hand in them. You couldn't bath your own children? Hey, they're good knives, though, aren't they? Bloody good knives. Alright, Nona Mish, thank you, and sympathies on your entire family-wide smegging. What a disaster. Bree and Clint. Time for the latest.

From iHeartRadio. This is the latest. Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Forget the pandemic. Forget the tsunami. Forget whatever other news you thought was important. There's only one thing taking over the news today, and it's Meghan and Harry's Oprah interview.

And to tell us the latest on that, Dean McCarthy, good afternoon. Oh, good afternoon, guys. This is the interview we've been waiting for. The most talked about interview of the year. Would you believe CBS actually paid Oprah's production company $9 million to be the network to

air this? Okay, here are the highlights. Everyone's been talking about this. Everyone's been anticipating this. Here are the key takeaways that blew my mind. First of all, we found out from Megan's mouth, this is literally out of her mouth, she said that her and Kate Middleton were actually super cool, super good. And this big divide that we read about in the Sun and the Daily Telegraph, all that was completely made up and fabricated. And in fact, she's actually quite close to Kate. She also opened up one part, which we were expecting to hear,

about how lonely she was and how difficult it was for her mentally. Have a listen to this. Here's Megan on Oprah's special. I continue to say to people, I know there's an obsession with how things look, but has anyone talked about how it feels? Because right now, I could not feel lonelier. You were feeling lonely even though you're Prince, you're in love, you're with him. I'm not lonely.

I wasn't lonely with him. Yeah. There are moments that he had to work or he had to go away. There's moments in the middle of the night. There was very little that I was allowed to do. And so, yeah, of course that breeds loneliness when you've come from such a full life or when you've come from freedom. I think the easiest way that now people can understand it is what we've all gone through in lockdown. The bit that is really spooky about that for me is how much she sounds like

Diana and what Diana was going through or said she was going through and what we've seen in The Crown and things like that about Diana, right? Absolutely. It has massive echoes to it. Yeah. The whole thing... I know, and that's the haunting part. Yeah. The whole thing is as scandalous as they said it was going to be, right, Dean? Like, it hasn't fallen short of that yet.

Yeah, you're right about that. Well, one thing that I was expecting, I was expecting her to throw a little bit more shade towards Queen Elizabeth, but we didn't get that. Nah. Nah, she's smart. The Queen was lovely to her. I don't know if I believe that. But another thing that kind of blew my mind as well, she talked about Archie and she said how Archie will never be a prince

and he'll actually never have any personal security, right? That's one of the biggest parts of being a royal and the most important part. Have a listen to this. Here's Meghan talking about baby Archie. What's happening behind closed doors was, you know, we knew I was pregnant. We now know it's Archie. And it was a boy. We didn't know any of that at the time. And that was when they were saying they didn't want him to be a prince or a princess, not knowing what the gender would be, which would be different from protocol. And that he wasn't going to receive security.

What? It was really hard. What do you mean? He wasn't going to receive security. What? It was really hard. What do you mean? He wasn't going to receive security. This went on for the last few months of our pregnancy. That your son and Harry, Prince Harry's son, was not going to

receive security? That's right. The whole thing is loaded and it's going to be airing tomorrow night on TV3 if you want to watch the whole thing go down. That's the latest out of Los Angeles with our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy. Brie and Clint. Hello, Brie is away for one more week filming her TV show,

and this week we're very lucky to have TVNZ's Maddie McLean helping us out on the show. It's so nice to be here. By occupation, you are a, is it fair to say you're a weatherman? Well, now I am. Yeah, currently. It's not the occupation I thought I would have. You just wait for the Jeremy Wells seat to become available

and then you're on to bigger and better things. Then I'm in. Yeah, absolutely. For now, he is the leading... Oh, no, because it's Dan Corbett. Yeah. I'm not even there. What am I?

He's the most attractive weatherman in the country. Thank you. So I thought today, let's put his skills to the test with a bit of a game. All you're going to do is call us and ask Matty what the weather is going to be for your town or city tomorrow. And if he gets it right, you're going to win some KFC chicken dollars this afternoon. Now, we've given you plenty of time to prep for this. I assume you've been studying the Met Service website from top to bottom.

I have, but what it requires is a really good memory, which I notoriously do not have. Right. No autocue here. No teleprompter.

No. So let's chuck you into it, shall we? Let's do it. If you get it wrong, the people win nothing. No pressure. The first person to play

is Jeremy. Hi, Jeremy. How are you going? Yeah, not too bad, self. Good. I'm going to hand you over to weatherman Matty McLean, and you can inquire about the weather in your town tomorrow. Good luck.

Oh, Jeremy, do you know what? I hate letting people down as well. Oh, well, try your best, mate. Okay, thank you. Jeremy, where do you live? I live in New Plymouth. New Plymouth, Taranaki. Matty, what is the weather in New Plymouth. New Plymouth, Taranaki. Matty, what is the weather in New Plymouth tomorrow?

Okay, I reckon New Plymouth, we're looking at a mostly fine day, maybe a little bit of cloud morning and night to book in the day, heading for a high of 21 degrees. Of course, to producer Ben, who has the answer. Ben? Morning cloud with fine in the afternoon, high of 20. Oh, that was pretty good. I'm going to give you that.

That was pretty good. I'm going to give you that. Jeremy, you've got some KFC chicken dollars. Congratulations. Oh, awesome. Hey, whatever you said, it would have been wrong because you're going to start them down like yo-yo. Yeah, I was going to say,

just say it'll be cloudy and you won't be able to see the mountain. Let's go to Nisha. Hi, Nisha. Hey. How are you going? I'm good, thanks. Okay, we want to get you some KFC. Tell Maddie where you live. Come on, Nisha. Hey. How are you going? I'm good, thanks. Okay, we want to get you some KFC.

Tell Maddie where you live. Come on, Nish. So I'm Morrinsville in the Waikato. Morrinsville, home of Jacinda Ardern, Vaughan Smith and the giant cow. Okay, Morrinsville. Maybe Mabel. I think it'll be a similar forecast to New Plymouth, to what we had with Jeremy.

So I'm thinking morning cloud, that'll clear away and it should be a mostly fine day. Heading for a high of 20. High of 20, mostly fine once the morning cloud burns off. Producer Ben, how's that? Tomorrow cloudy with some isolated morning showers. Then fine for the rest of the afternoon. High of 22.

I'm going to give you that. Thank you. I'm going to give you that. Nisha, congratulations. We've got some KFC chicken dollars for you. We just missed the showers, but it was clearing in the morning. Here's the thing about isolated showers, though, in the morning. I find that they're really hit and miss. So if I say isolated morning showers, don't expect the showers.

Oh, there's an inside tip. Yeah, right. Okay. I'm hedging my bets when I say isolated morning showers. Now, Debra's getting married tomorrow, so she really wants you to get the forecast correct. Isn't that right, Debra? Oh, yeah, yeah.

Okay, so is this where you live or this is where you're getting married? Or are they one and the same? I totally made it up, by the way. Oh. Who gets married on a Tuesday? People do. Debra, where do you live?

I'm in Whangarei. Whangarei. Beautiful Whangarei. What's the weather going to be like tomorrow, Maddy, off the top of your head? Okay, I'm thinking morning cloud as well. I'm sensing a pattern. That should clear away.

We should escape the isolated showers. Morning cloud clearing away. Fine afternoon. Heading for a high of 22. Okay, and we're showers. Morning cloud clearing away. Fine afternoon. Heading for a high of 22. Okay, and we're giving you a two degree range. No, 23. 23. We're going to give you a two degree range on that.

Morning cloud clearing high of 23. Is that what you're locking in? That's what I'm locking in. Producer Ben, what's the actual forecast? The actual forecast is morning cloud breaking with fine spells increasing the afternoon. A high of 23. Just kidding. Deborah, it's going to be a beautiful

afternoon for your wedding. Oh, yes. And you can cater the whole thing with KFC because you've got 50 KFC chicken dollars. Congratulations. Piss off, Dan Corbett. Love it. Hey, there you go. You are not only New Zealand's leading weatherman,

you're New Zealand's leading psychic weatherman. Thank you so much. How good. Maddie's here filling in for Bree this week as well. Bree's back on Monday. Have you noticed, Maddie, of course you've noticed, it's like the main thing at the moment, how like hyper-conscious as a people we've become

in the last 12 months about hygiene? Oh, yeah. Like it's no longer acceptable to be even mildly grubby because everyone's like, ugh, coronavirus. Well, did you see the kid that emailed, wrote a letter to Jacinda and called out her own dad for not washing his hands properly? Yeah, what a nah.

Yeah. What a nah. I know. But that's how seriously we take it. Yeah, he's dubbed his own dad into the Prime Minister. Even Caitlin, who was filling in last week, I was watching her and she was hand sanitising. Constantly?

Constantly. Like nearly once every 15 minutes. She had a little bottle that just sat beside her. I don't know if she found me dirty or what. Which is why this thing that happened to me today made me a little bit uneasy. What, hit a nerve? Yeah, hit a nerve.

I think it would, regardless of a global pandemic or not. But I was getting some food for lunch and bought my lunch today, as in I went and purchased some lunch. And I'm not going to say where it was, but the person who was preparing my lunch was wearing latex gloves, blue latex hospo gloves. I was like, good, nice practice, I like it. No masks.

I thought maybe in level two in Auckland you'd wear a mask, but no masks, but no biggie. It was one of those sneeze screen things. You'll let it slide. I like it. No masks. I thought maybe in level two in Auckland you'd wear a mask, but no masks, but no biggie. It was one of those sneeze screen things. You'll let it slide. I'll let it slide. And it wasn't until the food got to the end of the procession line where it was being put together that I noticed that the person who was constructing my meal was wearing like quite long acrylic nails,

like orange acrylic nails underneath their latex gloves and the acrylic nails had pierced through the end of the gloves and so both hands she had these blue gloves on with these orange nails sticking out the end of it and i can't tell if that was the gloves that had worn down over the lunchtime rush or if she'd gone, oh, life hack, I'll just pierce my acrylic nails through the latex gloves and keep working. But what do you do? Like if you work in hospital, what do you do? Can you get like little finger guards,

little finger extenders that you put on the end of them? The kinds of things that you used to get at primary school to hold your pencil properly? Yes, one of those things. Or like a thimble, those rubber thimbles that you're used for at primary school to hold your pencil properly? Yes, one of those things, or like a thimble, those rubber thimbles that you're used for sewing to put over the end. But equally, what do you do as the customer when you get to the end of the procession line and you realise that the person making your

whatever, which I won't say what it was. I think we can all know what it was. Oh, no, no, don't assume that. Okay, it's not necessarily that. Okay. Anyway, what do you do If you realise That the gloves They've been using

For hygiene Have been pierced Do you say something Or I didn't But as I left I was like I should have said something I could have got

A free burrito out of that I mean if that's what I was having for lunch If I was having a burrito Right Either way yuck Kia ora this is Toby Manhai I mean, if that's what I was having for lunch. If I was having a burrito. Right. Either way, yuck. Kia ora, this is Toby Manhai. I'm the host of Gone By Lunchtime,

a podcast for the spin-off podcast network all about politics and politicians, with me, Annabel Leigh-Mather, and Ben Thomas, careering wildly from the very serious to the very ridiculous. It's not for everyone. I don't think it would be Ellen's cup of tea, but you, I reckon, will love it. Gone By lunchtime. Grab one now wherever you get your podcasts. So I was meant to go to a wedding on the weekend. My partner Ryan and I were meant to go down

to Nelson, but of course we were in level three, so we couldn't go. Right. Which was... Did the wedding still go ahead? The wedding still went ahead. But here's the thing, because I think they had slightly more than 100 people. Oh. So I think they had to get quite... Oh, they had invited more than 100 people.

Yes. But they were in level one. No, they weren't. Oh, Saturday, level two. Level two. God, wouldn't you be like, oh, come on. So I think you've got to kind of cull a few people. Although there were a few of us, obviously, from Auckland

who couldn't make it so that drops the number down a bit. But then they put the Zoom up. Oh, that's a thing to do these days. Yeah, which was nice. So we were able to log on

and watch the Zoom wedding. Not quite the same. You know what the issue is with attending a Zoom wedding? No free alcohol. That's true. You know? But it gives you the freedom

to not have to wear a suit in kind of 28 degree weather. True, yeah, there's that side of it. You can wear shorts and a t-shirt. And when you've had enough, just close it. Exactly. And we just had a packet of chips

and we're just hoeing into them on the couch. Yeah, okay. So it was great. Nice. Would have been great, I should say, if it weren't for one quite major oversight in the Zoom conferencing of the wedding. Yeah.

Obviously bride and groom front and centre in the Zoom conferencing of the wedding. Yeah. Obviously bride and groom front and centre in the Zoom call until about maybe three minutes into the ceremony, the photographer stands right in front of the camera. No. And stayed there for the majority of the ceremony. No. Including the big moments. We didn't see the vows.

Did you see the kiss? Didn't see the kiss. That. Including the big moments. We didn't see the vows. Did you see the kiss? Didn't see the kiss. That's all you want. All we saw was the back of the wedding photographer's back. Right. Good back? She was wearing a very kind of see-through top.

You could see the showings of her bra. Yeah, you'd think that a photographer would be conscious of where cameras would position. You'd think so. But a lot of these Zoom weddings these days, because no one's a tech expert, and especially these guys, at the last minute,

we were thrust into lockdown. Exactly. They would have had to drum up a solution for their wedding pretty quickly. And I guess we're not necessarily used to the Zoom thing. So if you're a photographer, you're used to having the freedom of being able to roam wherever you want.

Go wherever you want. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And all of a sudden, the aisle is not just an aisle anymore. And you have to watch what you say in the seats too. Because your commentary could be audible on the Zoom call. Like if you were to go, oh my God, I can't believe she's wearing that dress. Yuck, yuck, yuck.

She looks like my big fat gypsy wedding. Or this wedding's never going to last. Yes. Or I heard something about her. You know, you could be sitting right next to the microphone. I didn't even think about that. Yeah, well, there's a thought to think about if you're considering Zooming your wedding.

Yeah. I've given three other pieces of advice. If you are planning a wedding that requires a Zoom conference. Oh, yeah, this is helpful. Yeah. So we had the photographer, but it could be anyone. So you've got to make sure Aunty Shirley is not standing up in the aisle in the middle of the ceremony with her iPhone

trying to take some crappy photos. Or her iPad. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, good. Okay, yeah, position the camera well. Make sure the camera is mainly focused on the bride and groom. No one wants to see the bored third bridesmaid who's wondering why she didn't make

maid of honour status. So what, you get the centre couple and then the lead, the best man and the bridesmaid and the maid of honour. Yeah, right, okay. Because they're into it. But if you're bridesmaid number three, maybe four, you're bored.

Okay, frame your shot. Frame your shot and sound. Because the whole point of being at a Zoom wedding is that you want to be able to hear the couple's vows. You don't want some kind of muffled sound coming from their romantic vows to each other that you can't even hear. And turn your notifications off.

Yeah, that's a good one. I don't want to be Zooming this wedding in here. Ding, ding, ding, coming through. And mute the microphone of everybody else who's Zooming. Oh, God, we could go on forever. We could. And my other big one, this isn't just for Zoom weddings, but for weddings in general,

please, please make sure that your phone is turned on to silent. I once was at a, because I'm a celebrant, and I was once officiating a wedding, and someone had the ringtone, whoop, there it is. It went off in the middle of the ceremony. Brian Clint. What's the in the middle of the ceremony. Bree and Clint. What's their name?

What's their name? His real name ain't some shady real or fake name, baby. What is their real name? This is the real or fake name game. That's not the name of the game. Right. But the name of the game is to decide whether the name is real or fake. I love the theme song.

It's good, eh? It's so good. So what's going to happen is we're going to get teammates and then together as teams we're going to try and figure out whether the celebrity that producer Anastasia has is using a stage name

or their real birth name. Right. Okay? Let's meet our first contestant. Darren, do you want to be on Team Clint or Team Maddie? I'll go with Team Clint today, I think. It's me and you, Dazza.

That means, Emma, you're on Team Maddie. Hi, Emma. Hi. We got this. Good luck, everybody Clint today, I think. It's me and you, Dazza. That means, Emma, you're on Team Maddie. Hi, Emma. Hi. We got this. Good luck, everybody. Yeah, we do. It's a best of five.

Could you say Anastasia when you're ready? All right, well, we'll start off with Maddie because this is his first day. Thank you. So your first celebrity is Matt Damon. Oh, Matt Damon. What do you think, Emma? Oh, I think that's real. Yeah, I was going to say it sounds real.

There's nothing flashy about it or interesting. It's just a name. Matt Damon. Yeah. Should we lock in real? Yeah, we could. Okay, let's do it. Anastasia.

You're correct. That's Matt Damon's real name. Well done. You're right. If you're going to get a stage name, you get something more exciting than Matt Damon. I thought that was quite a good name. It is a good name, but you know, if you're going to go to the trouble of getting a stage name,

you go for something with a little bit more flair. Johnny Fortune. Or something. Is that what you've thought about? Yeah, that'll be mine when I move to Vegas. Anyway, Dazza, we're up. Let's do this. All right.

The second celebrity is Nicole Kidman. Ooh. Do you know much about Nicole Kidman, Darren? Not a lot, apart from a you know, a few movies. I think that's probably her real name, actually. You think it's her real name? I'm looking at Matty for any tells. I've got a feeling he's a Nicole Kidman fan.

But you know how competitive I am. He's giving me nothing. Darren, I'm going to go with your inkling that it's her real name. You've got the vibe, so Anastasia, we want to lock in Nicole Kidman as her real name. That's correct. You guys are right. Did you know that, Maddie? I did know that.

Yeah, right. All right. Maddie and... Emma. Emma, your third celebrity is Nicki Minaj. Oh, that's got to be fake. Oh, yeah, definitely. That's not her real name, is it?

No, that's the weird last name. Yeah, there's no way. Minaj, no. You weird last name. Yeah, there's no way. Minaj, no. You guys are correct. Yeah! Her real name is Onika Tanya Mirage. There you go. And yeah, she just changed it when she became a... Mirage is a great last name.

Why wouldn't you keep Mirage? Yeah, I love that. So yeah, so Mirage, they, the, the, apparently, this is the quote, whoever ran the record label said, it had a nasty flow. I love Mirage. I don't know what that means, but yeah.

All right, Daz, we need this point to stay in the game, okay? I believe in us. Let's do it. Charlie Sheen. Darren, real name, because his dad is famous as well, Martin Sheen. Yeah, it has to be real. It has to be real, right? Oh, no, it's a mess.

Yeah, no, I would say real. Real? You don't hand down your stage name to your child, do you? But Lady Gaga's kid is not called, like, Jonathan Gaga in the future, is it? Yeah. We'd like to lock in real name for Charlie Sheen. Unfortunately, you are incorrect. His real name is Carlos Erwin Estevez,

and there's actually no reason. Is it? That's right. He's Emilio Estevez's brother. That is correct. From Mighty Ducks. He's not. He is.

Whoa. So people get really confused because they've both got different last names, but obviously Charlie changed his, but then he changed it back for one movie. It was really weird. Charlie Sheen's been through some shit. Yes, yeah, that's true. That means you and Emma win, Maddie.

Congratulations. Thank you so much. You've won your inaugural real or fake name name game. Emma, I'm so pleased for us. You've been too. Congratulations. Brie and Clint. Hey, we need to say a big congratulations to

Nicholas Cage from National Treasure. I'm trying to think of any other movie he's been in. Like a lot. A lot. I just don't come to mind at the moment. City of Angels. There you go.

Nicholas Cage. You. Nicolas Cage. You know Nicolas Cage. Oh, no, not the bees! Not the bees! Ah! I don't know my eyes! My eyes! Ah!

One of the greatest actors of our generation has just got married for the fifth time. Fifth? Yeah, fifth time. Nicolas Cage has married his partner Rico, right? Nicolas Cage is 56. Yeah, how old's Rico? Doesn't matter. I think that's the key, though.

Nah, doesn't matter. Why does it matter? Because I think the younger the person, the more likely they are to talk the older person into getting married for a fifth time. Rico is 26 years old. There you go. 30 years younger than Nicolas Cage.

There's nothing wrong with an age gap. I'm just thinking because the question is, why would you get married for a fifth time? Who do you think's done the arm twisting here? You think she's done the arm twisting. Because if you're a 26-year-old woman, Rico's probably on her first marriage. But who's more likely to get married again than a guy who's got married four times?

Clearly loves getting married. He's probably like, it's my favourite thing, babe, please, can we get married? No, I think Rico's talked him into it. My other four weddings were awesome. I've got it down pat. I know the best DJ. I know the best buffet. Here's the thing, though.

Weddings are expensive. I've got a loyalty card at the suit place. Yeah, there you go. And my fifth suit is half price. though, weddings are expensive. I've got a loyalty card at the suit place and my fifth suit is half price. Weddings are expensive but he's Nicolas Cage. Yeah, I guess that's true. Let's talk to some people this afternoon who are not Nicolas Cage, who have been

married a lot. Maybe it's you and maybe you're willing to talk about your own marriage track records and by heaps we're accepting three or more I think. I have a family member that's been married three times. Three times? And it's a bit, right?

Like, even they've got to admit, it's a fair few. Like, first time's a charm. Second time, I am. Oh, muck up the first one. Third one, you really have to love a wedding. You're a serial marrier.

You are. So maybe it's you, or maybe it's a family member of yours who's been married heaps before. Let's see the highest number that we can get on air this afternoon and celebrate it like we are doing with Nicholas Cage. Yeah right. Celebrate it. Doesn't matter about the age gap

doesn't matter about the cost. We just want to celebrate love this afternoon on the Brian Clint Show. Congratulations Cagey. Yeah. Give us a call or you can text us on 9696. We want to know how many times you've been married. Brie and Clint. ZM. Brie and Clint with Maddie filling in that 660 and all she wrote.

We are celebrating love this afternoon because Nicolas Cage has gone married for the fifth time. Five times. Five times. Five rings. Do you think he? Well, four ex-wives and one current wife. Okay, here's the thing. Do you rehash the vows?

Or do you have to rewrite new vows every time you get married? Yeah. Do you say forever or do you go for as long as I can? So we want to know this afternoon on 0800Diles.com how many times have you been married?

Or how many times has someone in your life been married? Jenna's here. Afternoon, Jenna. Hi. Is it you who's had a lot of marriages? No, definitely not me. I've learned from my parents' mistakes. Mum is on marriage number three with at least one broken engagement

before they got married. Whoa, yep. Dad is on divorce number three with at least two broken engagements before they got married. And I am proud to say I've been with my husband, father of my children, for 24 years.

I thought you were about to say Jenna, and I'm proud to say I'm never getting married. Which would be fair enough. I've married my one and I'm going to stick through it until we die. He's not allowed. You guys are not allowed to break up, eh? It's just not a thing. No, basically not.

It's just we part. So first one in, first one out. I love it, Jenna. That's bloody good. Thank you. Let's go to, oh, Anonymous. This person wants to be anonymous. Hello, Anonymous number one.

That's you. Are you there? Oh, is this me? Yeah, that's you. Sorry. We, anonymous number one. That's you. Are you there? Oh, is this me? Yeah, that's you. Sorry. We've got to start giving out fake names like Felicity. Do you like Felicity? Can we go with that?

Yeah, that's fine. Okay, Felicity. Have you had a lot of marriages? I haven't had a lot of marriages, no. But my father-in-law has been married five times and twice to the same woman. What? Okay, how does this work? So they got divorced.

Was there another marriage in between? Yes, so he... No, he wasn't actually. He got divorced and then remarried her and they got divorced again and he's just recently married someone else in January. In the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 order chain, was she 3 and 4? Yes, 3 and 4.

Did you attend their first and second weddings? I attended their second wedding. Yeah. And I attended the new wife's wedding in January. What is it? Does he just love getting married? I think he loves love, which is amazing. Yeah, that's good.

And he's so happy with the new wife now, so we are all very happy for him. Good. Can you imagine being the best man at the fourth wedding to the same wife? The kind of gear you could use in the speech? Like, not only is he marrying the same woman again, he's had two marriages before that.

Oh, yeah. And if you had a crystal ball, you said there's another marriage to come after this. No, you can't look at it like that. Finally, Karen. Hi, Karen. Fake name. Oh, yes, it's a great fake name too.

Yeah, great fake name. You want to speak to the manager or do you want to tell us about... So, yes, my mum, she has been married just three times but in addition to that, she's actually had four

long-term live-in relationships as well that have lasted between five and eleven years. Oh my god, how old is your mum? She's only 71 so she's done a good job. Yeah. Is she married currently?

No, but she's been with this man since 2012, so nine years. Is marriage on the cards? Probably not, no. Is your mum really eccentric? I'm imagining someone with a lot of pearls and fur coats and... No, no, probably just a little

bit of crazy in there. You know what I mean? Cool. It's been very interesting to have a childhood where you're... Have you got sisters, Karen? I've just got one. Right, well, there's at least one wedding ring there for you to inherit each, you know?

Oh, yeah, true, true. Yeah, perfect. Okay, hey, great call. Love it. Your mum sounds fantastic. Thanks for joining us. No worries., true. Yeah, perfect. Okay, hey, great call. Love it. Your mum sounds fantastic. Thanks for joining us. No worries. Thank you.

So good. Your first day on ZM and we get Cher for birthday banger. It was written in the stars. Hey, we've cracked the code before, our next issue. So, Too Close

is 100% by Next. However, Ali's birthday banger was Too Close by Blue. And you know Blue. Blue. The song Next, Too Close, is from 1997. In the year 2001, Blue, who were a, I think they were a manufactured boy band. Absolutely. There were four of them

from the UK. Were they on X-Fact or something like that? I think they just, there wasn't any of those shows back then. They just were. I think they ran out of songs

and they covered Next too close and it went to number one. So this is their version, the cover. It literally sounds exactly the same. Which literally sounds exactly the same. Which is literally exactly the same.

So that's where we were getting hung up. It's still good though. It's still good, yeah. Weird to cover a song that's only been out for three years. Yeah. I mean, times are tough. I saw this morning on TVNZ Breakfast, Maddy,

that you got to interview some of the cast of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under. It's insane. I mean, it's insane that a series is coming here. Yes. This is such a huge international franchise. Yeah. And so to get a Down Under season is amazing. So 10 drag queens have been cast in the series

and three of them are from New Zealand. Yeah. And can I just say, the contestants in the series and three of them are from New Zealand. Yeah. And can I just say, the contestants in the US and the UK franchises go on to have millions of Instagram followers. They travel the world when you can travel. Yeah. And they earn so much money.

So to become a contestant on RuPaul's Drag Race is huge. I'm looking at the queens that you had on the couch. World class, right? Absolutely. They've absolutely got a shot at winning this thing. We had, because Brie is the biggest RuPaul's Drag Race fan, so it has entered my sphere of influence only this year and I've started

watching it. Great show. And it's highly addictive. When you're in, you're in. And I was late to the party as well. This has only become in the last year since we went into lockdown That I started watching it Some people still have no idea what the TV show is No clue

So I thought you, RuPaul's Drag Race superfan I know I said 60, I want to chop you down to 30 I want to give you 30 seconds To tell me why This season of RuPaul's Drag Race The Down Under season Is the season to start watching. Okay.

Three, two, one, go for it. Life is hard, right? Life has gone to the dogs, so we need escapism. We need some fun. This is the campiest, sassiest, bitchiest escapism you can find. This season is so successful.

There's been 13 seasons in the US. Shows just don't last that long if they're not great, unless you're the Big Bang Theory. This is Next Top Model, Cross with the X Factor, Cross with Project Runway, Comedy Challenges, a challenge where they literally have to say

the bitchiest things they can think of to each other. And the way that contestants go home is... Can I do one more thing? Yeah, bonus fact. One of the contestants on this season is called Karen from Finance very good

is that not the best name for it frankly when does it come out do we know we don't know yet yeah later on this year on TVNZ on Demand

the fact that there's Kiwis in it huge huge get it on Spark Sport get Scotty J Stephenson commentating it get the TAB odds happening. Get some alternative commentary going on.

Yeah, get Jeremy Wells doing some. The best bit is the ACC wouldn't have to come up with fake names for them. Exactly. Comedy names, because they've already got comedy names. Karen from Finance. Like Karen from Finance. Brie and Clint. With Maddie filling in that Terry Styles.

If you judge by the comments in our social media, Brie Thomasel has either died, run away from the show, filling in there, Terry Styles. If you judge by the comments in our social media, Brie Thomasel has either died, run away from the show or left us for a better opportunity. Not 100% sure what the truth is, but she joins us on the show this afternoon. Hi, Brie. Hello. Where the bloody hell

are you? You've been gone for like three weeks. All of the above could be true. The jury's still out. Right. See, I'm imagining bandaged up face, some sort of plastic surgery, botched jaw. Whole new look.

Think of the weekend, you know, the work that he had and he went to present at the awards. That's similar to what I'm going through right now. Oh, nice. Well, I'm excited for you to get back now, actually. That's going to be something to look forward to. A whole new face. Hey, this week, your replacement is

celebrity marriage celebrant and TV weatherman, Maddie McLean. And I thought because you gave such good advice to Caitlin that got her through the three weeks that she did,

that it would be only right for you to give Maddie some advice. Are you up for that, Brie? No, I'd love to. I would absolutely love to. And I feel like it's integral for Maddie to do well this week.

Yes. I want to know a bit more about you, Clint. Oh, yeah. Okay, all right. Yeah, centre like it's integral for Maddie to do well this week. Yes. I want to know a bit more about you, Clint. Oh, yeah, okay, all right. Yeah, centre around me. How does Maddie survive a week working with me? All right, Maddie, I've got a few things for you. Number one, you need to laugh really hard at all of Clint's dad jokes,

even if they aren't funny. No, I've said this before. I don't do dad jokes. I'm a dad who does jokes, okay? They're different. It's very different. There's a great example right there. Just, no. When you laugh, Matt.

No, that wasn't a joke. That was a statement. No. No. No. No. Hilarious. No.

What else? Also, Matty, something that people don't know about Clint, and he'll try and tell you differently, but he loves it when you mess with his sound effects. He loves that. Okay, perfect. So I should go and talk to Ben and get some recorded in the studio?

Yep, just re-record anything that he's put into the system for today. He loves that stuff. Perfect. Re-record it over my daughter's first words, okay? Just so you're clear on the origins of that joke. That's the sort of stuff we're talking about. I quite like the sound of that.

See, Matty's keen. He's keen for that. Third one, Matty. Clint loves to talk about his unusually small nipples. Oh, right. Look, I'm not ashamed of the nipples, okay? I don't imagine they're going to come out this week. We've moved into autumn now, so I don't imagine the nipples are going to come out.

But Matty, you've seen my nipples, haven't you? I don't know that I've ever seen your nipples. Have you not? Show him. Can you show him? Have you not seen the nipples? I'll show you. We're friends. You can see my nipples, haven't you? I don't know that I've ever seen your nipples. Have you not? Show him. Can you show him? Have you not seen the nipples? I'll show you. We're friends.

You can see my nipples. Be honest, Matty. Oh, my God. They're tiny. Yeah. Yeah, but it's an evolutionary thing. We've talked about this. I'm part of the process of the phasing out of male nipples.

So you think we're eating up with male nipples at all? Yeah. Actually, that's all right. Bree, you've actually sparked a conversation there, so I'll give you that one. Yeah. No, I'm proud of that. Okay, cool.

Look, this has been great. Any other advice you need to impart before you go or are you pretty good now? No, one more thing. I've got one more thing. Maddie, if you can somehow work into the song log of the show, you need to play Move Like Jagger and anything Bon Jovi because he just thrives on it.

This is like a guide on how not to work with me, Brie. No, he says this. Great to talk to you. I'm taking every piece of advice to heart. That was former co-host of the Brie and Clint show, Brie Thomas. Thanks, Brie. Have a great whatever you're doing.

Love you guys. Bye. I want to talk about national anthems for a second. I will never perform a national anthemems for a second I will never Perform a national anthem One because I don't have the skill But two the pressure The huge pressure because you're usually doing it in front of a massive crowd

And people take it so personally They're like you ruined the anthem That's an assault on my country Yeah well we're all patriotic right Yeah true well some of us I want to play you an anthem And I want you to tell me whether this person has butchered the anthem

or whether they've reimagined it. Whether they've taken the anthem and reinvigorated it. Before we do it, I want to set the bar and show you what a bad anthem sounds like. This is a bad anthem. This is a lady called Crystal Collins performing the New Zealand National Anthem at a rugby league

game in Chicago about two years ago. And I guarantee you she had never heard our National Anthem before she stepped on stage to sing it. Have a listen. To her credit To her credit Pretty good pronunciation Of some of the te reo Maori words Yeah but

There was no rhythm No no tune She did not know Many of the English words So we agree That's a bad anthem Terrible Okay I'm about to play you A man called Benny Scholl Who over the weekend Performed the star No tune. She did not know many of the English words. So we agree that's a bad anthem. Terrible.

Okay, I'm about to play you a man called Benny Scholl, who over the weekend performed the Star Spangled Banner at a NASCAR event. To paint a picture of Benny for you, he has long hair. Part of it is dyed blonde. He's got tattoos. He kind of looks like he could front a pop punk band in the year 2010. Right. Is this a great anthem or a butchering of the national anthem? Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
