funky, you know? They're so groovy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like who
wears costume. You might see some delightful costume jewellery at a
souvenir store and you go, oh,
crazy aunt Kim would love that.
It's got a matching droop earring.
Oh, look, it's a daffodil
but it's in the form of a necklace.
Oh, and there's a sunflower one. Kim would love that.
She would. She'd love it. Crazy Kim.

No, I didn't have a fall.
She fell over because she's 23.

Okay, different story.
I nearly fell off a roof though.
Jesus.
Probably, yeah, it doesn't matter.
We're just on my friends.
Like safe roof.
It's like a safe roof.
When is there ever a safe roof?
Like it's not that much of a slot.
Oh, okay.

A live unboxing?
Of the prize
Is this your prize that you won?
Your prize
I won
We hired a casino
We had a blackjack and roulette table.
It's all fake money and stuff.
You just play for the fun of it.
Do you get people that run the tables?
Yeah.
Two people come and run it.
Were they wearing waistcoats?
Yes.
Anyway, we did a top six.
I was the only girl left.
For the ladies.
Wahinez.
If you're listening, mum, be proud of me.
I know how to gamble.
Yeah, and with my money too, I gifted some of my chips
because I wasn't very good.
We had to pool ours together to make it through.
But that's okay.
That's all right.
That's fine.
Three game of speech.
And then I lost.
I came sixth out of six.
So anyway.
This is the third.
Some wakachangi.
I think there was equal thirds.
Oh, what's the flavor of chips?
Barbecue and grandma's Crispy Roast Chicken.
Delish.
Great.
Oh, probably my favourite thing.
Bottle of Rosé.
I like that you've chosen an aesthetic bottle.
I always buy one with the pretty bottle.
You've got to buy French and you've got to buy the lighter ones.
That's a pen.
A pen with a diamond on top?
What the hell?
Some Dose & Co dairy-free collagen creme. I have no idea what that is.
It's good.
Collagen, good for you.
Your vegan day of the week.
Is it?
Is it?
Or maybe not.
A trophy.
An actual trophy.
This is my favourite thing.
I drink stuff out of here.
Oh.
So you'd already been awarded.
This isn't the first time you've had this.
No.
But then I left it there because I couldn't take it to the stadium.
Yeah, you can't be why, Rosé.
A cute little Kiwi car ring.
God, there's so many things in there.
Oh my goodness, that's so cool.
Oh my God, there's Scratchies in here.
Well, scratch it.
Live Scratchies.
Really?
There's two there.
Should I use the key ring?
Yeah, go on.
Oh, some Jaffas. Yum. You can open them. But you There's two there. Should I use the key ring? Yeah, go on. Oh, some Jaffas.
Yum.
You can open them.
But you don't have to.
Bunch of Jaffas in this room.
Am I right?
Damn it.
That joke didn't work.
And probably my favourite thing other than the rosé.
And the trophy.
And the trophy.
A small sewing kit.
I'm so excited about this.
Oh, that's handy.
Like, such a good gift. See, so excited about these. Such a good gift.
See, here's the thing. You guys
gave me a lot of ish
today on the show about my role
in my family. I'm in charge of gifts and
events.
And do I not always come with
food when I come here? You do.
You provide the vibes. You say it's a
dismissed role, yet it brings a lot of joy.
I didn't say it was dismissed. Wouldn't hurt if
you washed your clothes. I'd be happy to do it. it brings a lot of joy. I didn't say it was dismissed. Wouldn't hurt if you washed your clothes.
I'd be happy to do it. It brings a great joy.
Everyone, first game.
Did I win or not?
Judging by that face, no.
Negative.
You want to have a go at number two?
Might have better luck.
The tomato kiwi treasures one?
If I had a dollar for every time
I'd won on one of these scratchies,
I'd have no money.
Have you won anything before?
I'd have no dollars because I'd never won.
Oh, I thought you meant you'd never had a scratchy.
My friend won $200,000 on one of these scratchies.
No!
Not this particular scratchy, but a scratchy.
That's impressive.
So cool.
I went to school with her and I saw her in the paper.
I was like, what's she doing in the paper?
She's rich. She's rich. She's she doing in the paper? She's rich.
She's rich.
She's my friend again.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Should have kept talking to her.
Let's just see what she's up to.
Yeah.
Babes.
Oh, nothing, guys.
Do the thing.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
I thought I'd won a free ticket.
Shit all.
Nothing.
So gambling
That was fun
Yeah that was fun
That was fun
It was a bit of hope
Sometimes that's all you need is a slice of hope
Yeah
A bit of fun
And a flawed game
That's the main thing
House always wins
That is true
Cute guys
Well should we get out of here
Yeah
Thanks for coming in Kim
Yeah thanks for coming in
Do you want to get dinner or drink
Because you've all got things to do, don't you?
Yeah. I'll go do it myself with
my mum. Is your mum buying?
No, she can't. She's got your washing to do
tonight. And the goo to
get out of my hair.
What a fun night ahead for your mum.
She'll love it.
Your mum's so sweet. Such a sweet woman.
If you ever have extension goo in your hair, she'd
be the first to line up.
Why did you have extensions in?
When did you have those in?
In the weekend.
In the weekend.
For filming.
Oh, right.
Gotcha.
Yeah.
Have you ever had a merkin?
I haven't.
What's a merkin?
It's a wig for your...
For your bits.
Really?
Have you ever heard of that?
A merkin?
Like if you're filming like a period piece or something, not that period, like a time period
Piece or something and you know
Old school days and they had full bush
So it'd be like a
You know those stick on moustaches
It'd just be like a big patch
But it looks like realistic to that area
It's a merkin
Take that laser
I'm pretty sure it came from
Didn't like Eskimo
people have them
to stay warm or something
don't quote me on that
couldn't have they just kept them natural
well I mean what if
you like you know hypothetically
what if you get laser hair removal
because that's the in thing at the time
and then you know turns out you're like
oh I want to go live
in the, you know, turns out you're like, oh, I want to go live in the snow.
Yes.
You know?
In the snow.
Yeah, that sounds tricky.
So let's do the podcast.

Happy Monday.
Look, something a bit different
about today.
Clint is not going to be with us
because he had his first fall
on the weekend.
He had a fall
after the rugby game.
Nothing to do with any drinks or anything. He was just, he had a fall after the rugby game. Nothing to do with any drinks or anything.
He was just, he had a fall. So Kimberley Crossman will be joining us for the whole show.
And I fall often, but because I'm so close to the ground, it doesn't affect me.
Well, I also saw, because I was with you on Saturday night at the rugby, same game. You
also had a fall, but you just bounce right back up.
I do. I do. I'm very, is it malleable?
Bounceable?
We don't use that bigger words on this show.
Okay, good.
We like to, you know.
I'm like that song, I get knocked down.
When I get up again, you're never going to keep me down.
Clint, not so much.
He stays down.
He's got longer to go.
Yeah, he does.
He's quite tall.
Yeah.
Quite tall.
Anyway, so super stoked that you'll be joining us for the entire show.
Free Ride is back, obviously, for Free Guy.

Kimberley Crossman?
I would love to.
So up first, he's from Palmy.
He's 30 years old.
We have Kieran.
G'day, Kieran.
How are you?
It says here that you're ambidextrous.
Yep, yep.
When did you learn?
What was the situation where you thought,
oh, I can, you know, I'm ambidextrous here?
Oh, I've just always just, I don't know, when I was little,
I used to just pick up things with both hands and write with both hands
and whatnot.
See, the writing.
I mean, I can pick up stuff with both hands, but the writing thing.
Yeah, probably the writing.
Impressive.
Very impressive.
Who have we got in the ladies' corner?
We've got Monique.
She's 33.
She's from Christchurch.
She's got her radio up too loud.
She sells billboards and ads for a living.
Hello, Monique.
Hi.
What about to you in a wind tunnel?
Yeah, no, it's really horrible down here, actually.
It's really raining and yucky.
Really bad weather, we've heard.
Yeah, it's horrible.
Well, we're hoping everyone in Christchurch is staying safe.
Let's see who can win $50.
Kieran, your buzzer is tradie.
Monique, your buzzer is lady.
Buzz in when you think you know the answer.
I'll hand it over to trivia quiz master, Kim Crosby.
All right, question number one.
These are multi-choice.
Question number one.
How many Star Wars movies are there not including spin-offs? All right. Question number one. These are multi-choice. Question number one.

Lady.
Yes, Monique.
Is it B?
No, it's not.
Kieran, do you want to have a guess?

No, neither are right, so it was C.
The answer was C, nine.
Nine movies.
All right, moving on to the next question.

Yes, Kieran.
Is it B? B, Pocahontas. or C, Cinderella? Tradee. Yes, Kieran?
B.
B, Pocahontas.
I thought it was Cinderella.
I thought she had a... Sneaking lower back?
Lower back tat.
But there you go.
Or the vine around her bicep.
That seems on brand.
I thought she had a full sleeve tattoo.
Kieran, one to the tradees.
Next question.
All right, another Disney princess.
Who was the first Disney princess to have a child?
Was it A, Ariel, B, Sleeping Beauty, or C, Snow White?

No, it's not B.

All thanks to KFC.
Wait.
Sweet.
No worries, Kieran.
Have a good one, mate.
Have a good Monday.
Thanks for playing.
Thank you.
Bree and Clint.
Clint away, but Kim Crossman filling in for the afternoon.
We appreciate you being here because there's a serious thing that's
happened at a gym overseas in South Korea where they've actually banned a particular
song from playing in the gym.
Okay.
Is there any song that...
From explicitness?
Any song that springs to mind that you think should be banned from your gym?
Oh, I've never set foot inside a gym.
And yet you look like that.
Thanks for making me feel bad.
Oh, no, no.
I try to do YouTube workout.
I just get self-conscious because I don't have good grip strength
and I can't lift anything.
How good's like Pilates workouts on YouTube?
I love it.
I do the little like HIIT ones, 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off
because it's good for my ADD and it's not too long.
Yeah, perfect.
You just YouTube it.
It can be from the 1980s.
You'll get a real thrill.
Good tie bow.
Well, you can pick your own music then because obviously you're working
out at home.
But there's a gym in South Korea who have said they are banning
this particular global hit because it makes people too sweaty.
Do you recall this track?
Gangnam Style.
You know what?
That was my first thought.
It makes people too sweaty.
Apparently, they are banning any songs with a tempo higher than 120 beats per minute
in a bid to prevent people from breathing too fast
and splashing sweat on other people.
Obviously because of COVID and stuff like that.
This song I feel like I'd get down to in the gym.
What does Crazy Frog, is that also in the same tempo?
I feel like there's quite a lot of songs
that are over above 120 beats per minute.
Producer Ben, you're like a producer, music guy thing.
Whoa.
That is not a qualification I have.
But you understand like beats per minute and that type of thing.
120 is I would almost say pretty medium.
So like a medium kind of tempo song.
Yeah, 100-ish would probably be pretty medium.
Okay.
Right.
So pretty much the only songs that are going to be playing are Celine Dion.
Even some of hers maybe.
Some of hers have been.
No, probably not.
I thought we could do something fun this afternoon where obviously,
you know, that's been banned,
which Gangnam Style is actually 132 beats per minute.
That's how fast that is.
The line is a dot.
The line is a dot to you.
I thought we could talk about what are our favourite gym workout songs,
the song that really just, you know, gets inside you
and does something to you where you just go that extra mile,
you pump that extra, you know, 10 kilos.
Yeah, right.
I don't know gym terms.
Do you want to go first with yours?
I'll go first.
Mine's embarrassing though.
That's fine.
Yeah, that's why we'll do yours last.
Look, when I'm at the gym,
I feel like I'm going to go against everything
that this gym is trying to achieve,
which is not making people sweat.
I love to put a bit of CC Music Factory on.
Yeah, it's pretty good.
It's got a good tempo for like, you know, doing reps.
And a running man too. Yeah, when was the last. It's got a good tempo for, like, you know, doing reps. And a running man, too.
Yeah, when was the last time we went to the gym, you and I?
About 1983, I think, you and I went to the gym.
Just a bit.
I'm interested to hear what you have on offer at the gym.
Yeah.
What are you thinking?
What gets you going?
Well, I haven't been to the gym in probably a long time.
But I did go for a run
for the first time ever
this morning.
And I ran to this song.
And I ran to this song.
So that's the only one
that was in my head.
This one?
No, no, no.
The one I'm about to play.
I'm just waiting for that to finish.
It was this one.
We had the same thing?
No, it was this one.
Good running song.
Yeah.
What would you say
this tempo is?
You know, 113, 115.
I'm going to check.
Wait, 92.
Okay, Ed Sheeran, Bad Habits, Tempo.
Yeah, I don't know.
Fast.
126 it says.
It's out, isn't it?
Yeah, it's out.
That's banned.
It's out.
It's gone.
Can't have that one.
Producer Anastasia, out there in the booth on your own,
I know you're probably the member of the team that works out the most.
Yeah.
Because you always wake me up when we go on team trips.
Yeah, that is true.
You're going on your run at 6.30 in the morning.
And she's a donut denier.
She loves my donuts.
She loves to, you know, bodies of temple.
Guys, you've caught me on a Monday, all right?
What would you say is the song that, you know, does it for you?
Mine has, I've just searched up, it's got a BPM of 125
and it's called Gecko Overdrive.
I feel like, you know, being on Love Island right now.
Yeah.
Pound the pavement, some would say.
No, that's good.
I like that bit of Becky Hill.
I feel like all of ours have been about, you know, 125-ish.
We're all getting banned at this point.
We're all banned.
I don't know if I'm banned.
So I picked a song that is from my favourite album of all time,
Ministry of Sound 2008.
I mean, who doesn't have that album as their favourite?
Who didn't?
I mean, it had such hits like the Salmon Dance,
which I was tempted to put, but it doesn't jazz me up.
It just gets me excited because it's got dance moves in the lyrics.
Yeah, right.
What jazzes you up for jazzicising?
Jazzing me up for jazz, it was Call On Me. My Eric.
I reckon this is banned for sure.
And just, you know, a question.
Did you wear the outfit that they wear in the film clip?
No, I tend to stay in my pyjamas when I work out.
You don't work out in your pyjamas.
There's no way that's true.
I just get out of bed.
It's my non-negotiable.
I have to do it as soon as I get out of bed. What do you wear to bed? You don't. A full flannel. I wear a full flannel pajamas. There's no way that's true. Are you wearing full flannel pajamas? I don't get out of bed. It's my non-negotiable. I have to do it as soon as I get out of bed.
What do you wear to bed?
You don't...
A full flannel.
I wear a full flannel pajamas.
I thought you were about to say my birthday suit.
And I was like, I feel like that's a hazard.
I'll send you a picture.
Full flannel.
We're a pajama family.
Well, that'll definitely make you sweat.
That's for sure, won't it?
I'm banned, man.
I feel like we should put it out to the people.
I want your guys' input on this topic.
What do you think is the song, the ultimate workout song,
that just really makes you work harder, makes you run faster,
makes you sweat more?
What is it?
0800-DIAL-ZM or you can text us on 9696.
What's your go-to workout song?
Brianne Clint.
We're talking best workout songs, which funnily enough,
that song by St John came up.
It was pretty good.
On the text machine.
So shout out to whoever texted that through.
There's a gym over in Korea who has said that they're banning all songs
which are above 120 beats per minute.
So what falls into that category is the iconic song from Psy
Gangnam Style.
I want to see you really working on this last one.
You down the back Gary, give it
to me now.
And three, and two, and one.
Yeah, sweat everywhere.
Yeah, you can picture it.
You know? No one's having a
bad time. Just at Les Mills, they'd sweat everywhere. Yeah, you can picture it. You know? No one's having a bad time.
Just at Les Mills, they'd absolutely roast this song in their gym.
They probably have like every CD ever made of it.
I feel like that's, if I could have fitness, great word,
that I'd make a great gym instructor at like 5am
because that's when I thrive and I'm the most annoying and energetic.
And instead of being the annoying person,
you turn into the person everyone wants to be around.
Exactly.
Which is great.
We're asking you, though,
what is the ultimate gym workout song
that really just gets your sweat on?
Let's ask Matt.
G'day, Matt.
Hello.
How are you today?
Good, thank you, Matt.
Look, what does it for you?
What really makes you get your sweat on at the gym?
Well, look, I'm a lot like Kim.
I hate going to the gym.
Oh, I've heard that.
I might love it.
I've met this guy at gym once, but I do hate going.
So it's quite an angry time for me.
So I have to have quite an angry one.
But the reason I have to go to the gym is because last time I was at the beach,
I could hear the whales singing, we are family.
So I have to go to the gym. But I usually go for something like M&M, like Superman.
Oh yeah, we've got it here.
It's like you're angry at someone, you picture the person you're angry at and it drives you
harder, stronger and faster. Yeah, good suggestion, Matt.
I like that one.
A lot coming through on the text machine.
Someone suggested some Missy Elliott for the gym.
Is it worth it?
Let me work it.
I put my thing down, flip it and reverse it.
It's your opinion if it's wet and yet it's your opinion if it's wet.
Not just good for the gym, Kim.
That song apparently.
Other areas. A bit of linguistic talent. Yes, yep, yep, yep, Kim. That song, apparently. Other areas.
A little linguistic talent.
Yes, yep, yep, yep, yep.
Reversing everything.
Someone said peanut butter jelly time.
Oh, yeah.
Banger.
Absolute tune.
I'd go to the gym for this.
Nah, I don't think it would get me to the gym.
I'd probably want a peanut butter jelly sandwich.
But great workout song.
What about you, Savannah?
What song does it for you at the gym?
Gets you all sweaty, makes you work harder?
My song would have to be Thunderstruck by ACDC.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, great song.
Really gets you pumping when you're lifting those weights, eh?
Absolute tune, Savannah.
And that's a long song, too.
Yeah, you just tune everything out.
You just focus on the song.
It's great.
I always listen to it when I go to the gym.
That'd be a solid set when you're doing it to this song.
Yeah.
Goes for at least five minutes.
I like that one.
I think my favourite one on the text machine
is definitely someone who's texted through their favourite workout song,
the song that pushes them the hardest.
It's the song from Hugh Jackman's Greatest Showman.
I'm around the books, it's my skin.
Well, fire away, don't stay
You know that song?
I mean, ish, not enough to belt it out, but I'm impressed you do.
And I can see how if you were, you know, the hero of your own movie at the gym,
how this would be the perfect soundtrack.
This is what it's about. Ready, listen to the part.
Okay.
That there's a place for us Only a glory of us out. Ready? Listen to this part. Okay.
Oh yeah, I'm benching at least 200 on that. You can bench me to this if you like.
Speaking of a lot of risk
and big reward, the
Olympics finished up yesterday.
Did you watch much of the Olympics?
We watched a lot of sailing as a family.
We watched, yeah, a lot of sailing.
Well, I was at your house on Saturday before the rugby and we were playing, you know, casino.
There was casino games.
There was blackjack happening.
There was roulette.
It was all happening.
And then everyone, it was like closed down because we had to watch
Lisa Carrington.
I was like, everyone stop what you're doing! And I was like,
but I'm winning.
And then you're like, do you want to see Lisa win? I was like, yeah,
fair enough.
So it was a big
time at your place over the
weekend. And I
thought to wrap up the Olympic Games
it was quite interesting to me because I read this article
about the different sports that have been added to the Olympics
that have just been, which is, of course, skateboarding,
which was so cool to see at the Olympics.
And do you think that skateboarding is coming back for the 2024 Games?
Oh, I hope so.
In Paris.
Is it? Skateboarding's coming back. Okay, good. Oh, I hope so. In Paris. Is it?
Skateboarding's coming back.
Okay, good.
Oh, I got nervous there for a second.
I thought as if I am the gatekeeper.
Kim Crossman says, yay.
Well, it's actually the IOC.
They can either put in or take out
depending on which country is hosting the Games.
They can kind of decide depending on where it's being held.
What about surfing?
Because that was another sport that got added.
I did watch a lot of that as well.
I'm going to say it should come back,
but I don't know if the French are into it.
So I'm going to go with no.
Confirmed.
Surfing will be back.
Great.
I'm horrible at this game.
This is a sport that has got a lot of attention over the last week or so
is the climbing, the speed climbing.
That's pretty impressive.
Did you guys watch that?
Yeah.
It's quite an interesting one to watch.
How would you do?
Would you do well?
Horribly.
Really?
Horribly.
Depending, I mean, if I'd had a few, you know,
Bundy rums and I was trying to get over a fence to get away from someone,
I'd do bloody well.
But, yeah, I mean, it's coming back.
Okay. They've said, yep,
big tick for Paris.
There is a few sports, and this is on the more
sadder side, that aren't coming back.
Now, before I tell you the ones
that aren't coming back, I want to
know from you, which ones
do you think shouldn't come back?
I have a question about that track
event where my dad was like,
and they run through water.
The steeplechase?
The small puddle, a hurdle and some wet ground.
Is that really a...
Oh, sorry.
Are we big on that?
I used to do the steeplechase.
Did you?
Hey, look, I'm all for it.
I love the concept.
I'm just kidding.
I did.
It feels like a bit of a stretch.
Like make it a river.
Make it a river crossing.
You want them to jump into like what, a 50-foot deep pool or something?
Well, that's how it was pitched to me.
So you can imagine my disappointment.
Gotcha.
I mean, they're running a long way.
Does that help?
Okay, the steeplechase is out.
Okay, that's it.
What else are you kicking out of the games?
What should I remove?
There's a few where you're like, can't say that.
That's what was going through my head.
Probably shouldn't say that.
And it's all because, yeah, no, I don't want to.
I'll make a lot of enemies.
Okay, fine.
Okay, one more, one more.
The steeplechase runners are very angry. I know, I'm going to get a lot.
Look, I admire their athleticism.
No, don't backtrack now.
Don't backtrack.
This kayak pull through the thing,
but only because I watched hours of it
and I didn't understand the rules.
The what?
So they're in a kayak with a skirt on
and they have to go really fast down these rapids
and they go through like a gate, but it
just looks like hanging tassels. A salem?
Our Aussie won gold in that sport. Here's the thing.
You told me not to do this. You want to
bloody take it out. The canoe slalom
or whatever it's called. Yeah, get rid of it.
You want to take that out and we won bloody gold in that.
Yeah, fair enough.
No, well, unfortunately
it's coming back. The only sports that won't be back for the Paris Games,
and this is controversial, karate being taken out.
They're appealing that, though.
They are appealing that.
I wouldn't want to get in a fight with them.
How does an appeal to karate go?
Yeah, I know, probably not a good idea.
And, of course, I already knew this one.
Baseball and softball won't be returning in the 2024 Games.
Really?
No.
Okay.
You want to talk to that?
I'm still, I mean, I used to be good at that.
I'm just hoping they add in hot dog eating because I will be there in Paris.
Okay.
Competing.
What could I be competing in?
Not the steeplechase.
It's good because we're about to kick off something new
and I'm calling this Justified Jury.
Oh, great music bit.
I mean, Law and Order, one of my favourite shows.
Dun-dun.
Dun-dun.
Got a special dance for the intro.
Look, this is how it's going Dun dun. Dun dun. Got a special dance for the intro. Look, this is how it's
going to work. Justified jury could be a situation that's happening in your life where maybe
you're having an argument with someone. They think they're right. You think you're right.
You can call us up. There's a jury of people in here this afternoon and we will vote on
what we think. Mildly qualified individuals. We're not qualified in the slightest,
but we're a group of people that have an opinion and we can tell you whether we're on your side
or someone else's side.
So to kick it off and to see how it works,
Kim Crossman has given up so selflessly
the opportunity to go first.
So I had a situation where we, as a family, were doing a wine tasting event.
I already feel you tiptoeing around the situation.
Good, good.
And we knew well in advance that this was happening.
Tickets were bought.
Very excited.
Group emails.
How much were the tickets?
Group text.
50 bucks.
So not cheap.
And everyone had invited, you know, someone.
And I had invited someone and they were really excited.
We spoke about it weeks in advance.
We spoke about it the day before.
Right.
So it's locked in.
I see where this is going.
It's happening.
And, you know, our family is a close group.
Everyone was excited about this person coming.
It was going to elevate the environment. This person messaged me 30 minutes prior
to said event to say that not only will they not make it,
but they're going to pick up something for someone else
down the line. No apology. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Can you say what they were picking up? Was it like a circumstance
where it had to be done on that day,
right there, right then?
It was picking up a motorbike for someone else.
Oh, so it wasn't even for them?
No.
But again, those skills may be pertaining to that person,
so I understand that.
And is motorbike a metaphor for something?
Oh, it may have been.
I didn't know.
I'm just checking.
I just want all of the facts.
Yeah. And I was, I felt really let down and hurt, but I want to put it to the group if I am
justified in being disappointed in that. Because it wasn't just my event. It was our family group.
Does that make sense? But then again, here's my ego trying to convince you one way or the other.
Yeah. The best way to move on from something that's hurt you and, you know, upset you is to talk about it on national radio.
So I feel like you've taken the first really good step.
Yeah, it's positive.
It's positive.
I feel like it's time to vote.
Okay.
Producer Ben, do you feel like you've got all the information?
Is there any questions?
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't think I have any other questions.
I know what I feel and I'm ready to voice it.
Okay.
That's what justified jury's all about.
Yeah, straight to the point.
Producer Anastasia, are you ready to cast your vote?
I believe I've received all the evidence for the story.
All right, so how this is going to work is Producer Ben, myself,
and Producer Anastasia, we're just going to say guilty or not guilty
in terms of your friend.
And a guilty verdict means that I have the right to be mad.
Exactly, and we will name and shame that person straight after the verdict is done. have the right to be mad. Exactly.
And we will name and shame that person straight after the verdict is done.
No, I'm just kidding.
Okay.
That'd be open to it.
That'd probably give another version of the story.
Actually, this is great.
Let's do that.
We need to let them, like, you know, voice their story.
Okay.
I'm going to say it.
I mean, it's a clear-cut case here.
It's guilty.
Yeah, it's definitely guilty.
Yep.
For sure guilty.
Oh!
It is a unanimous decision.
That was easy.
That was one of our easiest ones we've done.
From my pain, I now feel good.
I mean, it was the first one we've done.
Well, for me, it was the client.
That's a no apology.
Do you feel good about it?
Yeah.
It was definitely the no apology.
Yeah.
The no apology really.
There's a way to bail, eh?
Yes.
And the not apologising and owning it.
Being like, look, I've really stuffed up here.
I'm an idiot.
Got it.
Throw him in jail and throw away the key.
Who said it was a he?
Now you've released that information.
Oh, no.
This is meant to be all anonymous.
It's anonymous.
Kia ora, this is Toby Mann.

Bree and Clint.
This is a movie that has at least one of us super excited and that's producer Anastasia
because one of her favourite people in the whole world is Addison Rae, who's a big TikTok
star. Is that right, Stash?
Yeah, that'd be about right.
I think she's my favourite TikToker.
Not that I'm big on the top, but I mean,
that was really incriminating.
I was also excited about this because if you grew up in the 90s,
you will remember the teen flick, She's All That.
I watched it on Friday night.
Did you?
Yeah.
Well, just because the trailer came out, I was like, I've got to re-watch it. Probably watch it a couple of times a year. I watched it on Friday night. Did you? Yeah. Well, just because the trailer came out, I was like
I've got to re-watch it. Probably watch it a couple
times a year. I love it so much. I mean, if you
can't remember that film, do you remember it?
Freddie Prinze? Yes. Lots of paint
on her overalls. And then she took her glasses
off and she was hot. Essentially, the
premise of the movie was she was, you know,
the dorky girl, Laney, and she
gets completely transformed by
taking out her ponytail and removing her glasses.
It was astounding, but, you know, big-time 90s film,
and they're redoing it, but instead of calling it She's All That,
it's the movie He's All That.
So they've completely reversed it.
I think, did you grab a clip of the movie She's All That?
Yes, I have, yeah.
Okay, here we go.
Zack Seiler had it all.
How's it going, man?
And dating the most popular girl in school.
Until she went on spring break.
I'm back, I'm safe!
My condolences go out to Zack, who got dissed and dismissed.
In order to save his reputation, he's taken on an impossible bet.
I'll pick the girl.
And you got six weeks to turn her
into the prom queen yeah so essentially it's the complete opposite you're cringing aren't you
i was because it's i hold such a special place with these movies and like dude where's my car
and american pie and then it's like some of the premises of them just to not have it aged well
yeah so it's a little bit different, this version, or it's not.
It's pretty much the same.
So an influencer, which I'm assuming is Addison Rae from TikTok,
she's specialising, who specialises in makeovers,
bets that she can transform an unpopular classmate
into the prime king.
Producer Anastasia, still keen?
I've seen the trailer five times i'm ready and raring
to go really is it still an icky premise though yeah you're uncle you're not attractive which
means you're not a good person i'm gonna turn you into a good person so you can get voted most
popular this one literally like we said with the glasses, the girl getting her glasses taken off and her ponytail out,
this one he literally gets a haircut and they're like,
whoa, different guy.
You look totally insane.
I thought we could play a fun game because essentially all that is
is a remake.
That's what it is.
It's a remake of a 90s film.
We could play a bit of a game this afternoon.
Cue the game music.
Hey, you can have it.
Really simple game you guys can all play.
And it's a game, was that movie a remake or an original?
Okay, yeah, right.
All right, let's kick off the movies with the 1998 classic
from Lindsay Lohan, The Parent Trap.
That's a real movie.
Real movie.
Are we guessing if it's an original or remake?
I'm going remake.
Ooh.
You're going remake?
Really?
The Parent Trap with Lindsay Lohan?
I think that's the original.
Original.
They did remake it with someone else.
You see 98.
I think it's the original.
Is that the original made in 98 with Lindsay Lohan?
I think it is.
Where she finds her secret twin sister at a summer camp
and then they reunite their parents.
What's confusing is it's bringing back memories
of the Mary-Kate Ashley Olsen movie,
which is kind of very similar.
I know.
But I do think that I'm going to go Lindsay Lohan original.
I'm going to go remake.
I'm going to have to say Anastasia is correct.
Yes!
It is a remake, and get this,
from a film also called The Parent Trap from 1961.
Whoa.
Well, we went around then, so that's probably why. Yeah, that's unfair.
Next.
Next.
All right, next movie.
The classic from Leonardo DiCaprio, the 2010 film Inception.
Remake.
Is it a remake or is it an original?
I feel like I'd know if it was a remake because they're like,
whoa, you're remaking that crazy movie.
I think original.
Original.
I don't know if Leo would do a remake.
He's got classes.
He's like, I'm better than this.
He remade Romeo and Juliet.
She's got you there.
I'm saying original.
I'm sticking with my original.
There's going to be an original in this.
Original or remake?
I'm just saying.
OG, original.
Yeah, nice.
You're right.
It is the original.
Nice work with Leonardo DiCaprio.
What about the movie from Adam Sandler that came out in 2005,
The Longest Yard?
Great movie.
If you don't recall this movie,
it's where he was a professional NFL player
and then he kind of, you know, fell on hard times
and then went to jail
and then they had to play against the prison guards.
Great movie.
Conceptually, it feels like it could be a remake
because that's just described most sports movies,
but I'm going to go original.
I'm going to go original too.
Original or remake?
I feel like I'd know.
I feel like I'd know if it was a remake. I'm going to go original too. Original or remake? I feel like I'd know. I feel like I'd know if it was a remake.
I'm going to go original too.
Original or locking in original.
You're all wrong.
Really?
It's a remake from a 1974 film.
And here's a fun fact.
Burt Reynolds was the main actor in that original movie.
Also appeared in the remake from Adam Sandler.
Do you guys want to do one more?
I do.
You're sick of this game.
No, I'm into it.
Okay, the last one.
This obviously was the biggest film of 2018.
A Star is Born with Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper.
Remake.
I feel like I know it's a remake.
Barbra Streisand, right?
Yeah, hasn't it been done three times?
I just wanted to finish on one where you got it right
to give yourself some confidence.
You're right.
The original came out in 1937.
That was good.
It was a good game.
I was going to do some more,
but I didn't recognise any of the other movie titles.
Brie and Clint.
Bit of an awkward situation we need to deal with.
Something that only has come to, I guess, the top of the table, the head.
I don't know what I'm talking about because I'm nervous about this.
You and I hung out on the weekend, Kim.
Yes, Bree was invited to one of our family events.
Family is a very loose word that we use in our group.
Everyone was invited.
But we were talking about, you know, people that I met from your inner circles,
your family and friends.
The nucleus, yes.
Like I met your auntie, your auntie Sue.
I met your mum, your dad again.
There was everyone there.
At one point in the night, because we went to the All Blacks
v Wallabies game, we were sitting in the seats
and I sat next to a really lovely gentleman.
Him and I struck up a conversation.
We were talking about footy.
I was trying to tell him the rules of rugby league.
I was like, nah, mate, that's not the rule.
When I looked over, you guys were just at each other.
I don't know if you were fighting or if you were passionate.
There was a lot of banter.
He made fun of my Australian accent and I made fun of his South African accent
because that's what we were doing.
He was making fun of my accent.
I was making fun of him.
And I said to you, I was like, who is that guy,
the guy with the South African accent, lovely guy.
I talked to him for a fair while.
And you go, do you mean famous cricketer Grant Elliott?
And I said, pardon me?
I'm sorry, what?
I can't believe you don't.
He is like hall of fame worthy
He has his own seat at Eden Park
In a special colour
Because of how famous he is
So you're telling me
That this person
That obviously clearly I should know
I've lived here long enough
This guy was in the black caps
Producer Ben is wild at you right now
So he went to the World Cup
Yeah he not only went to the World Cup
I think he hit our winning six.
Right? Yeah. I'm embarrassed.
I'm embarrassed for me.
Do you know I was giving this guy
so much shit?
Just bandering.
Which is on brand for our family.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he was loving it.
We had a good old yarn. Now knowing
that he is Kiwi royalty,
I feel like... You've got some making up to do. he is Kiwi royalty, I feel like.
You've got some making up to do.
You need to apologise.
I actually feel like it would be appropriate to apologise.
Apologise to Grant Elliot.
What, and admit that I didn't know who he was?
Yeah.
For us.
For us, you have to.
For us, yeah.
Do you want to call him right now?
No, I don't want to.
Nice timing.
Okay, okay, okay.
Good luck.
I need it.
Am I here?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
You bring me on.
You talk to him.
I'll start.
Okay.
Hello.
Hello, Grant Elliott.
Kimberly Crossman here.
Hello, Kimberly Crossman.
What am I up for today?
I am ringing because I believe that Bree has an apology for you.
Oh, no. Yeah, I know. It's apology for you. Oh, no.
Yeah, I know.
It's not an apology.
Yeah, so.
Definitely not.
Hello, Grant Elliott, super famous cricketer, icon,
and all-round Kiwi, you know, legend of the sport, cricket.
Grant, let's just be honest with each other.
I feel like you and I had very honest conversations.
You're a good bloke.
I'm a good sheila.
I'm going to be honest, didn't know who you were.
Yeah, no, that's fine.
I didn't know who you were either.
No, but I'm not an uber famous cricketer that won the World Cup
for New Zealand slash is actually famous.
I just wanted to, you know, obviously extend my apology.
I should have known who you were.
But I feel like, because I didn't know who you were, made extend my apology. I should have known who you were, but I feel like,
because I didn't know who you were, made it a more fun night.
Better banter.
Yeah, I gave you a lot of Aussie banter.
I mean, I couldn't believe that I was sitting next to the only Australian
who was allowed into this country.
Like, why are they not deported?
How are you allowed to stay here?
Look, it's a matter of, I don't want to talk about the details of it,
but there has been deals
done between a few
big people high up, and obviously
now that I've got you on my side, Grant Elliot,
uber famous cricketer, I'm probably
going to be here for a while. That's because you're a radio
icon. They let you stay here.
See, why are you being so nice
to me? It makes me feel worse. Because he's part
of my inner circle. We're all kind and
lovely. Anyway, Grant Elliot, I really appreciate your time
and for being so gracious. Let's hang out again
and I'll definitely remember your name, maybe.
That's fine. Anything you have to apologise for is your rugby team.
Well done, sir.
Well done.
Oh, that hurt.
That one hurt.
But fair call.
All right.
Cheers.
Grant, what's your last name?
Elliot.
There you go.
See you later, mate.
Grant.
See you, Brie.
See you, mate.
Cheers.
Bye.
Appreciate what you've done for the country.
Thank you.
Bye.
Love you.
Bye.
Brie and Clint.
Clint away.
Kim Crossman filling in.
And we're just about to kick off a new game.
From their head to their toes, too high or too low, they're short and they're stout, they're up and they're down.
It's the fight of the heights.
That's right.
Fight of the heights.
Also short and stout.
Like a little teapot, isn't it? Like a little teapot, short and stout. Like a little teapot, isn't it?
Like a little teapot, short and stout.
Did anyone guess my height?
If you were playing along, listening before I said,
what height is Kimberly Crossman?
A lot of people, someone said 4'11".
Another one said 5'6".
Obviously, they've never met you.
And a few people said 5'2", which I believe you're 5'2".
Yes, that is correct.
There we go, 5'2", for Kim Crossman.
And that's how the game's played, or is it?
Producer Anastasia, can you explain the rules?
So basically I'm going to list off a bunch of celebrities
and you guys are going to have to guess what their heights are
and obviously whoever is the closest wins that round.
Okay, cool.
And we're playing for people at home.
I'm playing for Bradley, I believe.
Hi, Brad.
Hey.
All right, mate, I'll do my best.
If I win, you get the 50 KFC chicken dollars.
And who are you playing for, Kim?
I'm playing with Chelsea.
Hey, Kim, how's it going?
It's going good.
I'm looking forward to winning you some money.
Oh, confidence is key.
Oh, great.
All right, cool.
So we're playing for you guys.
Let's get started, stage.
This week's themes all are celebrities or actors and actresses
who are in movies and cinemas right now.
Okay.
So, yeah, they'll all be familiar ones you guys should have seen on the screen,
so you could probably judge.
Let's start off with celebrity number one, who is in Black Widow, Scarlett Johansson.
Ooh, Scarlett Johansson. Ooh, Scarlett
Johansson.
I'm going to say
a solid...
There we go. My answer
is in. Ooh, you've gone tall,
I think. Brie has put down 5'6".
Kim has put down 5'8".
Brie, congratulations.
She's 5'3".
Is she only... She's only
a little bit taller than you. We hear that all the
time, that people look so much bigger on TV
and the screen. I've never heard that. The camera adds
10 centimetres. I've never heard
you look tall on telly. Yeah, the camera
adds... Damn it. I felt like
that was a good joke. No one heard it.
We did. And then I went to say it again and I was like
don't be that person. Sorry Chelsea, I'll try again.
That's one point to Brie. I'll take that don't be that person. Sorry, Chelsea. I'll try again. That's one point to Bree.
No worries.
I'll take that point.
We're on the board, Brad.
Awesome.
Celebrity number two, star of Free Guy coming out soon, is Ryan Reynolds.
Ryan Reynolds.
He's tall, but he's not that tall.
Have you met him?
I haven't met him.
Didn't you kiss him one time?
No, that's a different person.
I went short because I overcompensated.
Kim has put down 5'10".
Brie has put down 6'1".
Brie, congratulations again.
He's 6'2".
What?
Again.
Chelsea, I'm so sorry.
It's just everyone who's taller than me feels like they're 9,000 feet tall.
I can't get the measurements.
Okay, do I need one more to win?
You just need one more to win.
Come on, Kim.
This is going to make it or break it for Chelsea.
All right, celebrity number three is star of Jungle Cruise,
The Rock, Dwayne The Rock Johnson.
He's a big man.
God.
Okay, I think I got this.
I don't know if this fight is possible.
What did you say? I said 6'4". You went 6'6". I think he got this. I don't know if this fight is possible. What did you say?
I said 6'4".
You went 6'6".
I think he's a big guy.
We're actually sitting at a tie.
He's 6'5".
So no one gets it.
No one gets it.
All right, we go on to next celebrity.
Celebrity number four, star of Suicide Squad 2, Margot Robbie.
I've met her in person a couple of times.
I'll brag.
No, I'll just hold on.
I'm just going to pick up the name I dropped.
Okay, I've got the name now.
I reckon she's...
Yeah.
What did you say?
5'7".
We've changed it.
I said 5'8".
Kim's put down 5'7".
Brie has put down 5'8".
She, Margot Robbie, is 5'6. That's a point to Cam.
Come on! Chelsea, we're on the board.
On the board.
I'm nervous, Brad. I bet my hands are sweaty.
Gross.
Alright, guys.
Let's go for celebrity number
five. LeBron James.
Oh, I should know this.
Do you know who that is? He's a basketball
player. Yes, I know who that is. I should know this. Do you know who that is? He's a basketball player. Yes, I know who that is.
I should know this.
I should know this.
I think it's that.
Bree's put down 6-7.
Kim has put down 6-7.
I'll change mine.
All right.
You're going to go higher and you're going to win it.
I'm going to go lower.
That's a point to Kimberly.
He's 6-9.
I could have won it. You could have won it.
Chelsea, we're coming back.
Brad, what am I doing?
Give me some advice.
You think I'd know LeBron James is high.
Come on.
All right.
This is it.
I just need to get a new celebrity.
We're too good at this game. Go Tiger. I just need to get a new celebrity.
We're too good at this game.
Go, Tyco.
Go, Tyco.
Wait.
Oh, that's not fair.
Haven't you worked with him a million times?
Yeah, I don't know his height.
It's not my first.
All right, everyone.
We've got a celebrity, John Cena from Suicide Squad 2. Okay, John Cena. John Cena.
Kimberly has put down 6'6". Nah, he ain't that tall.
Brie has put down 6'4".
Congrats, Brie.
You've won with his height is 6'1".
Brad, we just got it.
Well done.
Congrats, guys.
Well done.
Oh, Chelsea.
That's nice, Chelsea.
Brad, you've picked up the 50 KFC chicken dollars.
Thanks for calling in, guys.
Sweet.
Thanks, guys.
See you.
There it is, Fight of the Heights.
First game, I don't even know.
I should have lost that one.
But Kim Crossman nearly came back to take it.
We might play that again next week.
We might not.
We'll see.
Get some shorties.
Bree and Clint.
Now, I don't believe you've ever been here when we've done this before, Kim. Is that right? We might play that again next week. We might not. We'll see. Get some shorties. Brie and Clint.
Now, I don't believe you've ever been here when we've done this before, Kim.
Is that right?
Or you were here?
No, no, this is correct.
This is a new thing.
Sorry, to specify.
I've been here and had my mind blown,
but I haven't been here and had pertaining to this segment.
Okay, great.
Perfect.
Welcome.
It is a fun day on a Monday to get us through some of these stories.
And we want your guys' stories, obviously,
big stories of coincidence, stories that are going to blow our minds.
And you'll either hear this, which is we're all in agreeance,
big tick of approval, and you get the big tick, you've blown our minds.
But if your story isn't up to scratch,
if you didn't quite get there, then you'll hear this.
A fart.
You'll be farted out.
And I hope that you got that from the internet.
No, I made that sound effect. That is actually brave.
No lie.
Your commitment and dedication to this show is unparalleled.
I know.
Thank you so much.
But before we get into your guys' stories, we do a story first.
And Kim, you've put your hand up.
You said you found a story on the internet.
I did.
I did find a story from the internet a few years ago.
Here we go.
We're getting storyteller Kim.
Storyteller Kim.
No, sorry.
I'll just settle in for this.
Yes, yes.
I'll just tuck myself in.
Producer Ben, get the two buttons ready.
Tuck yourself in.
Here we go.
A few years ago, I got into a cab heading out for the evening in downtown Toronto.
Shortly after being dropped off, I realised I left my phone in the cab.
I tried calling it with no luck.
I called the cab company, but because I had flagged the cab. I tried calling it with no luck. I called the cab company,
but because I'd flagged the cab and I'd paid in cash, they had no real way of knowing which
cab I was in. I figured the phone was as good as gone. So I went about my night. Many hours later,
having moved around the city and quite a bit ready to call it a night, I flagged another cab.
Sitting in the backseat, I started to think, man, that driver looks so familiar.
And then I realized that I was in the same cab that I took
earlier. He said he hadn't found a
phone, but I wanted to start looking
and there it was, jammed in the
seat. Me and my flip phone
were finally reunited.
Only then for me to put it in a washing
machine two days later.
What do you reckon
producer Ben?
You've got to think of the times.
So out of every cab, where were they?
San Francisco.
Toronto.
Toronto.
A big place.
Huge place.
Huge place.
It's not like it's a small country town.
And of the time.
This isn't Uber, guys.
She's talking cabs, flip phones.
We're circa 2009 at least.
What are the odds that the same cab that dropped her off,
she was there for hours, had a big night.
We normally have the rules, same city or country.
It's sometimes a bit tricky.
But this, I just think there's a lot of cabs.
And I feel like.
It's a great story.
Producer Anastasia doesn't agree.
No, let's hear.
No.
Oh, do you think it's a no?
Do you think it's a big no?
Why?
I like the story.
But I think we should just remind ourselves
of the old same city rule.
Same city.
I know, but.
There's just so many cabs.
Wait, let me explain to producer Anastasia who was born in 97.
A cab was the thing before Ubers.
Yeah, I know what a cab is.
And you pay with cash.
Cash, yeah. Or cards. Familiar with the term? And they have a meter, I know what a cab is. And you pay with cash. Cash, yeah.
Or cards.
Familiar with the term.
And they have a meter, which a meter is a thing.
That's on a roll.
I agree with the same steady thing,
but I just think there's so many cabs and many hours.
Can you imagine how many cabs would have been in Toronto that night
and for her to get into the same cab?
Find her phone.
Yeah, incredible.
And that no one took the phone.
That's another part. That's true too. Another part of it. Yeah, incredible. And that no one took the phone. That's another part.
That's true too.
Another part of it.
Yeah, Motorola Razr probably fell straight down the back.
It would have been a Motorola Razr.
I reckon.
Great story.
Hello, Molto.
Yep.
I definitely think that's a win.
But we want your stories now this afternoon.
0800-DIALS-ZM.
Do you think you can top that story?
Can you blow our minds or will you be farted out this afternoon?
Give us a call right now or you can text us on 9696.
We'd love to hear your stories this afternoon.
Kim Crossman filling in for today and we're doing Mind Blown Monday.
This is where we ask you guys to share a story with us
that's going to blow our mind.
It's so crazy, so coincidental that we can't help but give you this sound.
But the thing is, Kim, and you're new here
and you haven't heard someone be farted out yet.
It's harsh, but it's like a family.
It's where you're honest with people and it's all a bit of fun
and don't take it to heart if you hear a fart noise.
The sound.
Call the love.
Let's kick it off.
Kerry has called through.
Hello, Kerry.
Hi, how are you?
Good, thank you, Kerry.
You think you've got a story that's going to blow our minds?
I gave us goosebumps. So in
2019, we were in
Portugal pet sitting
and we met the lady and she was
English, but she said she'd lived in Hong Kong
for many years. And we said, oh, we know
one person who lived in Hong Kong
for lots of years. Now there's 8 million
people in Hong Kong and it turned
out he was her neighbour.
What?
I know, it just gave us goosebumps, it was amazing.
What do we think?
Thumbs up?
I think it's a thumbs up from me.
What are the odds, it's like when you know
Kerry people joke when they hear you're from New Zealand
or whatever and they go, oh do you know my mate? First name only. Yeah, whatever, and then you're know, Kerry, people joke when they hear you're from New Zealand or whatever and they go, oh, do you know my mate?
First name only.
Yeah, whatever.
And then you're like, no, I don't know every person in New Zealand.
Turns out in this case, you did.
Yeah.
Because I just sort of said his name really under my breath.
I said, oh, we know someone who used to live there
and then just kind of just muttered his name and she spun around and said, what?
And we just all got goosebumps and it was just really, really bizarre.
That is wild. All right, we've kicked it off well. Thanks, Kerry. Appreciate you calling
through. Amanda's done the same. G'day, Amanda.
Hey, guys. How are you?
Good, thanks. You think you got the story to go all the way?
Yeah, well, it's pretty crazy. So, like, I'm 22 now, but when I was seven, we were camping
like way up north. I was swimming in the ocean, like, you know, being a kid,
and I found an engagement ring.
We reported to police.
No one kind of, like, came forward.
So, like, time went on, and I met my best friend in Auckland,
went to school, like, 1,200 girls, met her on the bus,
and I was telling her the story, and she was like,
wait, my auntie's told me the same story,
and it was her auntie's engagement ring.
Ooh.
Ooh.
Okay.
Was it?
Was it confirmed, Amanda?
Did she get the ring back and then it was confirmed and they found it?
Well, she got the ring back and there was a photo of her wearing it,
so we were able to, like, see the exact same ring.
Okay.
Okay.
Wait, so where did you guys used to go camping?
So we kind of, like like camped different every year,
but this particular time it was way, way up north.
Right.
But we lived in Auckland,
so I didn't even know my best friend at this point.
Oh, you didn't even know her?
No, not at all.
I met her when I was like five years later in high school in Auckland.
Okay, we're going to do a vote in here, Amanda,
because I feel like we need to do a vote. Everyone in the studio, thumbs up or thumbs
down on the count of three. One, two, three.
You got it, Amanda!
Nice work! Very good. What are the odds of Amanda
finding that and then telling the story, her friend hearing it and then
it being her auntie and then her friend knowing that it was her,
I mean, it's all connected.
Yeah, it was honestly nuts.
That is pretty good.
Did she let you keep it?
Yeah, I'm absolutely not.
Oh, come on.
Geez.
No, it felt pretty good to find the owner.
Like, it's a pretty sentimental thing, so.
Yeah.
No, very good, Amanda.
Thanks for calling through.
Can we go three from three this afternoon?
I feel like we might be in with a chance.
Phil, you're the man to do it.
Hey, how you doing?
Good, thanks.
Phil, tell us your story that you think is going to blow our minds.
Well, I hope I can get it three from three.
Come on, Phil.
We believe in you.
This is a bit close to heart.
An old man passed away about 20, 22, 23 years ago. He was a painter
and decorator and part of what they did back in the day, and I think they still do it
today, they scribed their names into the walls before, where they
were doing the jobs before they papered the rooms.
My brother, who's older than me, he
did an apprenticeship with my old man back in the day.
And I was born in 81.
My brother was born five years, about 76, I think.
And then he now runs Painting Outfit down in Ashburton.
And then, so he doesn't really do jobs or quotes these days,
but he took this one particular job just the other day, actually, just last week,
and out at Hines due to a flood damage house.
The insurers on site met them.
The one room he went into, the place they pulled back the wallpaper
to check the severity of the damage to the house,
there's my old man's name, papered by X name, and 10th to 10th, 67.
And he was just blown away that he saw that scribed in the wall.
And then the irony between 10th to 10th, 67,
was that's actually my old man's birthday, 10th to 10th.
And 67 would have been his 21st year.
So he would have done that job on his 21st birthday back in the day.
And my brother happened to come across that just the other day.
Phil, I feel like every single person in this studio,
slash I'm sure listening,
I've got goosebumps everywhere.
It's a big thumbs up, Phil.
Probably one of my favourite mind-blowing stories we've ever had on the show.
What an amazing story, Phil.
This happened last week.
Yeah, just last week.
And do you know what? I listen to you guys every Monday drive. I always think, how's in the segment?
And then when my brother texted me that photo the other day,
I just took my phone from the wiki and I said,
this is a mind-blowing Monday story.
Phil, it's a big thumbs up for me.
I appreciate you sharing such a close story to your heart.
That's an amazing story.
And yeah, as I said, my favourite story we've ever had on the show.
Incredible.
Awesome. And the fact that I got through to my favourite story we've ever had on the show. Incredible. Awesome.
And the fact that I got through to you guys today to tell this story is awesome.
We'll give you another one.
It's three in a row, Phil.
You bloody legend.
I appreciate you calling through.
What an awesome story.
You have a good afternoon, hey?
Thanks, Sam.
Bree and Clint.
Hey.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's birthday banger. Right. Right, if you haven't heard this before, we do it at the same time every day, 5.30,
and we take your guys' birthdays and we figure out what was the number one song on your 16th
and we'll play our favourite one in full.
Who do we want to start with, Kim?
We'll go to Nikki, I reckon.
G'day, Nikki.
Hi, guys.
How's your weekend?
Oh, pretty good, mate, pretty good. Oh, that's good, guys. How's your weekend? Oh, pretty good, mate.
Pretty good.
Oh, that's good to hear.
This is the baby shower this weekend.
Oh, yeah?
Your baby shower?
No, my sister.
Oh, nice.
First one?
Yeah.
Yeah, her first bath.
Oh, cute.
That's exciting.
Congrats.
Let's do your birthday banger.
Nikki, what's your birthday?
2nd of December, 85.
All right.
You were 16 in 2001.
On the 2nd of December, 85. All right, you were 16 in 2001 on the 2nd of December.
And in 2001, this was top on the charts. I gotta get through this.
I gotta get through this.
I gotta make, gotta make, gotta make it through.
Bit of Daniel Bedingfield.
What a gem.
Absolutely love.
Brother to Natasha Bedingfield.
Both Kiwis.
Do you like that one, Nikki? Yeah, it's a pretty good show. Both Kiwis. Do you like that one, Nikki?
Yeah, it's a pretty good show.
Both Kiwis.
It's got to give it a win.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, they've done very well.
I think that's a banger to start off with.
But we'll see what else we get.
Let's go to Amy.
G'day, Amy.
Hi, how are you going?
Good.
How was your weekend?
Good, thanks.
How was yours?
Oh, you know, it could have been better, Amy, if I'm honest.
No, I'm just kidding.
I hung out with Kim and it's awkward because she's here.
I actually will go on record saying I don't think it could have been better.
I don't think you could have had a better time.
It was a solid 10 out of 10, Amy.
I'm not going to lie.
It was very good.
I love it.
Let's do your birthday banger, Amy. I'm not going to lie. It was very good. Let's do your birthday banger,
Amy. What's your birthday? 15th of March, 81. All right, Amy, you were 16 in 1997 on the 15th of March. And in 97 on your birthday, this was number one.
Spice Girls.
Who do you think you are?
Do you remember that one, Amy?
I do, I do.
I am a Spice Girls fan, but that's not my favourite one.
But it'll do.
That's still pretty good.
But I feel like you got overplayed, which is good. Yes.
Yeah, that's it. Oh, good one, Amy,
from you. Let's go, last
one, Lorene.
Is it Lorene? Hello.
Yes, hi, how are you doing?
G'day, mate, how are you? I'm very well,
thanks. Good to hear, Lorene. What's your
birthday? 4th of January,
1974.
Oh, you're a Capricorn, Lorene, like me.
I am. I am. Are you a workaholic,
Lorene? Absolutely.
We all bloody are, Lorene.
I know. You were 16
in 1990
on the 4th of January.
And, Lorene, here's
your birthday banger.
One thing about this song,
it's also in the credits of the Flintstones movie
of the time.
Correct.
Very cool.
I actually won
a karaoke competition
singing that exact song.
Lorraine, give us a bit.
Oh, no.
No, I don't think so. Whip it out, Lorraine. Let's hear it. Oh, no. No, I don't think so.
Whip it out, Lorraine. Let's hear it.
No, no, no, no, no.
B52's Love Shack. It's a very
good one for you, too. Love it.
Love it. We've got to vote now.
It's going to be hard.
I don't know what I'm going to do here. I like
them all.
Should I say why I'm
tipping one? Yeah, you can say who.
I reckon I'm going to go with Spice Girls,
only because I feel like the Who Do You Think You Are... Don't give me that look.
I could have got Evil Eye.
From producer Ben.
But Mel C does a great overlay,
and I feel like we could really bring it home
with a performance of this song, Brett.
You know, I am a diehard Spice Girls fan.
But?
But nothing.
I'm voting the Spice Girls.
Yes!
Absolute banger.
Amy, even if it might not be your favourite,
you've won this afternoon.
Yay!
Thursday banger.
But Amy, the Spice Girls, come on.
You remember this one.
I'm going to dance the hotline.
If you know it, the Spice Girls, your birthday banger for this afternoon on ZM.
Oh, yeah.
How's it going, Spice Girls?
Who do you think you are for the birthday banger for your Monday on Bree and Clint?
What are you playing now, Producer Ben?
A bit of Spice Up Your Life?
Are you doing a back-to-back?
Come on.
Is it a back-to-back?
Is it a back-to-back birthday bag of Ben?
No, this is just background music while you two chat.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
When you played Spice Girls, assuming you did, who were you?
I was a bit of everyone.
Okay.
Probably sporty.
Okay. Or scary. I think I'm a mix of those two Okay. Probably, probably sporty. Okay.
Or scary.
I think I'm a mix of those two.
You're definitely baby spies.
I know, but I love Geri Hallowell so...
You can be Geri.
That's the beauty of the spy skills.
You can be any of them that you want.
On her solo career, Bag It Up is still and stands by as one of my favourite songs of all time.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Okay, never mind.
Come on!
Ha! Ha! a long time. I have no idea what you're talking about. Okay, never mind. Come on! Shout out to
everyone who texted through asking for
a double play. The mustache
that is... Oh, no can do, guys.
Said no can do. Come on, but we love it.
But they said we appreciate you playing at least
one song everywhere.
Birthday banger, there it is.
We do it every afternoon at 5.30 and we'll be back again tomorrow, hopefully.
Maybe we'll play some Whitney Houston, some Backstreet Boys.
You never know.
Brie and Clint.
Little shout out.
Just got a really sweet message in our inbox.
I don't know if they're still in the car from Nikki,
but she got through on Birthday Banger for tonight.
She's got a nine-year-old daughter who absolutely loves the show.
Her name's Luca.
So big shout-out to Luca.
Yeah, shout-out.
Very sweet.
Hopefully you've gotten home safe this afternoon.
Thanks for listening.
But something else that happened in the break just now,
which is very shocking.
I don't know, Producer Ben, if you were as shocked as what I was.
This is about Kim.
She said a lot of shocking things today.
So this could be any one of multiple realisations.
I'm thinking of a few scenarios that she's mentioned.
The one where you just said that you only wear your pyjamas once
and then you wash them.
You don't wear them more than once.
You wear them one time and that's it.
Correct.
How many pairs do you have?
On about three or four on rotate, I reckon.
So you do washing at least what, every day?
Well, I.
Say it.
So this is.
Say it.
Say.
So you do your washing every day?
All right.
My mother does my washing.
Your mum?
But let me justify.
Your poor mum who's raised you for how long?
She loves it too.
I'm back living at home.
Does she?
Does she love it?
I don't know anyone that loves washing.
I've returned to the nest because I was in America.
And the deal was that your mum did your washing.
I said,
under these conditions.
We have an interesting
family dynamic.
We all have different roles.
What's yours?
What do you do?
Entertainer
in a group of vets.
Oh my goodness.
I do.
And note writing.
That's a big thing on me.
Wait a minute.
Note writing?
Yes.
Like what was discussed
over dinner?
Note writing.
No, I just,
I will like do everyone's daily notes.
She's not a secretary.
Yeah, well, that's what I thought.
And what's it called?
Who's the transcriber?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She's not a transcriber.
No, I, you know, I just organise the activities.
This is going to make it or break it for me.
I don't know about you, Ben, but here's the question.
Okay.
Do you or don't you wash and change your own sheets?
She does that too.
But, okay.
Do you clean your own toilet?
Yes.
Well, here's the thing.
Do you?
I do when I'm not, I'm staying at home.
When I live in my apartment, I do all these things.
I'm qualified-ish, actually.
That's not true.
Yes, I do do it.
Just at the moment in my current living situation,
my mum is doing it.
And tell producer Ben about the last thing your mum does.
Tell him.
The last thing she does.
Yeah, you know what we talked about.
What is it?
She wipes Kim's bum.
Oh, you have such a lot.
