New Zealand is launching a women's super rugby competition next year. If a rugby player is wearing number 11, what position are they playing? Tradie.

Yes. Base? Wing. They are on the wing. They are playing on the wing. Question number two. Which singer's real name is Stephanie Joanne Angelina Germanotta? Give you a clue.

Oh, yep, bass. Angelina Jane. That's a good guess. That means Anna. Do you want to have a crack at it? Oh, I'm not sure on that one. Give you a clue. It's a lady.

all thanks to KFC. Nice work, mate. Well done, bro. Thank you. Thank you. Drop the bass. Bree and Clint said it. Drop the bass. There's an article out today talking about how dog-somnia is a thing.

Apparently, most dog owners, a big percentage, have their friendly furry friend in the bed with them. They sleep in the beds and they keep a lot of people up apparently. If I had a dog, I would invite it into the bed. I reckon that'd be the coolest part about having a dog. Yeah, the thing you don't get is that when you've got a dog and then if you've got a partner as well,

you need a big bed. Yeah, right. Well, I've got a big bed. How big? King? Yeah, depending. If you had a big dog... right Well I've got a big bed How big? King? Yeah Depending If you had a big dog

Yeah yeah yeah Well this is the thing If I had a dog I'd have the appropriate bed I just like the I mean I know they're a dog And I know they've got fleas and stuff But

No dogs don't have fleas Don't they? If you flee them Oh right They shouldn't have fleas Does your dog sleep in the bed? Yeah she She's

Probably half and half Like I think when she When it's super hot She gets too hot in the bed? Yeah, she's probably half and half. Like I think when it's super hot, she gets too hot in the room. Yeah. So she sleeps in her crate because she's got like a cooling pad and stuff. Do you kick her out for, you know? Nah, she stays in for that. Yeah, right. Yeah.

It's easier. I'm kidding, producer Anastasia. Oh, okay. I'm kidding. Oh, most people probably wouldn't bother. They'd be like, oh, it's nothing they haven't Well, most people probably wouldn't bother. They'd be like, oh, it's nothing they haven't seen before.

Nah, that's weird. They go, watch, we named this one after you. I don't know about that. I don't know about that. Anyway, there's a study that's been done saying that, yeah,

dogs can be causing dog somnia where you don't get enough good dog sleep. Dog somnia is not a thing. That's not a real thing. Because some dogs... Dog somnia. Some dogs will, like, there's a story where they'll wake you up

in the middle of the night, depending, and they need to go to the bathroom and then some people can't get back to sleep. And then my dog, on the other hand, once she lays, she does not move, including if she's laying in your spot slash right near your face, she will not move. That's good. You've got a good one. And then if you try and your face, she will not move. That's good. You've got a good one. And then if you try and move her, she is so angry at you,

she will be like, don't touch me. I get it now. I get it. And I actually have cat somnia. I have a cat that wakes us up every morning at 4 o'clock. Meowing. Yeah, scratching the walls, asking for some water out of the tap or some water in the bath.

God, you really do have fancy cats. Don't they have a keto diet? No, they were paleo for a bit, but they've decided they don't like their fountain anymore, so now they have to drink out of the tap. Where did you get these fancy cats? Trade me. The fanciest cats ever.

At the time, I was like, why is this girl giving up these really cool cats? And now I know. Because they're quite high maintenance, these cats. They're like, I want you to feed me Evian from the bottle, please. The good thing about cats in the bed is you're right, they don't take up a lot of room. We have two. The most we'll ever have in the bed is two, and there's still room if there's two cats in the bed.

If there were two dogs in the bed, then it'd be... I mean, depending on what type of dog. You know, if you've got a German Shepherd, it would be not much room. No one has a German Shepherd in the bed. Old people would. Surely. 100%. Really?

Why not? Well, too big. Well, I mean, if you've got two people in the bed, you're going to need a big bed. But if you're one person... I feel like the bed, after a while, wouldn't cope with all the weight. German Shepherds are like 60 kgs, aren't they?

Isn't that how much we weigh? Yeah, but... That's a good point. But my point is, how many of us could go in the bed? Yeah, right. Sustainably. I mean, what about throuples? Bed companies think about these things these days.

Do they, though? Yeah, they are like, right, so if a throuple was in the bed... I reckon that's an upsell. I reckon if you go into beds are us... You've got extra support in the middle for a thruple mattress. They're like, you need a support brace. You need an extra strut put in this bed. Yeah.

I feel like it's super common, dogs in the bed. But I wonder how many. Do we have someone listening that has a whole stack of dogs in the bed? Yeah. Or just more than one big dog. Like if you've got two germies in the bed or even two labradors in the bed. Yeah, it's a lot. And two people.

I know for a fact, us dog people, once you've got the dogs in the bed, the dog is the king of the bed, king or queen of the bed, and you literally sleep on the tiniest part of the bed you can and the dog takes up as much room in the bed as it wants. Yeah, and they run in their sleep as well. Oh, that's the cutest thing ever. Let's get some people on. We want to know, do you have dog somnia?

Because you've got multiple dogs sleeping in your bed every night. How many dogs are in the bed? 0800-DIAL-ZM or you can text us on 9696. We're talking dog somnia because a study out today said people are losing sleep because they have the dogs in the bed with them. Not the case for me. My dog does not move a muscle, but she takes up most of the bed,

so maybe for that reason. But we're asking you this afternoon, do you have heaps of dogs in the bed? Min has called up. G'day, Min. Hi, Min. Hi. Tell us, what's the bed situation? How many people in the bed?

Well, there was only one, just me. And I have two Rottweilers. They're about 60 kilos each. Not small dogs, Rottweilers. No, they're not small dogs. And about a month ago, I got myself a boyfriend for the first time in a long time. And thank goodness he's bigger than both dogs put together. Go men. And so what now? It's you, him and the two Rottweilers? No, the

dogs have been banished to the floor and the couch. Oh, men. Oh, men. Big move. Which was a big move. You must love him. Well, he's still in training. Yeah. How do the dogs feel about this? Because, I mean, I know they need to know who's in charge, but that's probably quite a good way to get offside with the dogs quickly

if you take their place in the bed. Yeah, well, he's learnt that he can't take over the couch too, so. Oh, so it's bed or couch. Yes. Right. Oh, Min, I'm so stoked for you. That's bigger than marriage to me, like choosing your boyfriend to sleep in the bed over the dogs.

That, to me, bigger than marriage, bigger commitment. Wow, that's what I thought too, and the dogs are sort of that good with him, but they will put him in his place if I'm home. Just one more thing, Min. Were you getting a better night's sleep with the dogs are sort of that good with him, but they will put him in his place if I'm home. Just one more thing, Min. Were you getting a better night's sleep with the dogs in the bed or the new man in the bed? I was getting more sleep with the dogs in the bed,

but I actually don't mind that. Oh. Weekly week. Whose farts are worse, the dogs or his? I'd rather sleep with the boyfriend. Yeah. Got it. Got it.'d rather sleep with the boyfriend. Yeah. Got it. Got it.

Hey, good work with this. Yeah, nice. Good stuff. Stoked for you. Meg's here. G'day, Meg. Hi, Meg. Hi, guys.

What's your dogs in the bed situation, Meg? Two golden retrievers, a six-foot-two husband, sometimes me and one of three kids. And I usually wake up and one of the kids be like, I don't know how I got there. Wow. How big is the bed in your main bedroom? King. Oh, I was going to say, it'd have to be.

That's a lot. I like how you're a maybe for the bed. The husband, the two dogs, the kids, they're in there. You, maybe the couch looks better tonight. I know my place. Oh, that sounds like heaven to me. I know my place. Yeah. That sounds like heaven to me. I'd love to sleep in the bed with two golden retrievers.

And the man. And the man. And the kids. And yeah, what a good time. That would be testing the support struts of the bed. It would be. Karen, say hi, Kaz. Hi, Karen. Hi, how you going? Good, mate. How are you? Yeah, not bad. Oh, we can hear the dog in the background.

Oh, okay. Was that barking of a dog? I heard the dog too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What sort of dog are we talking about? It might have been the neighbours. Oh, okay. We have five Labradors and a Collie Kelpie Croft.

Oh, my God. You're not telling me they all are in the bed, Karen? Well, we normally have probably two at least in our bed. We have upgraded to a super king because they're not small dogs. No. And my husband and I aren't small people either. So it's really packed. Six dogs.

Six dogs and two people. Yeah. Yeah, well, yeah, we've got kids, so I've got a dog each. And, yeah, there seems to be the boyfriends bring their dogs around and they stay. Wow. It's like one big happy family. Karen, a part of me is like, is it the boyfriends who are saying

we should get these big dogs and we should make them sleep in the bed because then that way they've gotten out if they drop a big, you know, fluff fart. You never know who's done it. Yeah, Brie, because it's men that have the farting problem. I know, I know. It's quite funny, though, because my husband goes to bed before I do, and so the dogs will follow him off to bed.

By the time I go to bed, I can't get in because there's – our dog is lying on my side on my pillow, looks at me and like, I'm not moving, Mum. That's it. One last question for you, Karen. Are you the big spoon or the little spoon? I'm a bit of both, to be fair. She's got him on one side and the dog on the other side.

She's a utility player. I love it, Karen. Nice work. Love that. There you go. Dogs all over the place. Okay, everybody, please welcome to the show Black Fern, two-time Rugby World Cup winner and all-round GB.

It's Kendra Cox-Edge. Hi, Kendra. Hi, Dean. How's it going? Kendra, it's been a while. It has been a while. So good to have you back on the show. And, I mean, it's been a while since you guys have been able to play some rugby as well. You're here to talk to us today because, finally,

New Zealand has a women's super rugby competition. Yeah, we're excited about obviously having a super rugby O-Picky which kicks off in March. And the cool thing about it too is we've got Two Degrees who have come on board and sponsored the four super rugby O-Picky teams. Does that mean you get a free phone? Well, yeah, hopefully.

Oh, how good. Well, at least your data paid for it. You want to get that free Two Degrees data going hopefully. Oh, how good. Well, at least your data paid for, eh? You want to get that free two degrees data going on. Scroll through social media, eh? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then you really want to take full advantage and fly overseas and use that global roaming pack. Yeah.

So Super Rugby Opeke launches. There's four teams so far, right? Which province has got a women's team for this season? We've got the Blues, the Chiefs, the Hurricanes, and then we've got Matatu down south here which is the whole South Island, which is awesome because it's a whole new identity and new brand. Was that just a way of not giving the

Crusaders another winning team? Just put it all together, you know, and stop the Crusaders from dominating everything again? Maybe. No, I think it's just around the player depth at the moment down here. The cool thing about it is it's the best playing the best so it'll be some really good rugby played. I just think it's so exciting, Kendra.

I mean, it's about bloody time, you know. I feel like this has been a long time coming. I just wanted to ask you, do you think finally, because, I mean, this has been a long time coming, when are we going to be able to buy some women's rugby kit? Yeah, you're going to be able to buy the gear. That's going to happen. There'll be, especially around the Black Fern stuff coming into World Cup next year, there's going to be some merch you're going to be able to buy.

It's exciting. We'll get in there. It's going to be awesome. I'm keen as. Here's a provincial test for her, Kendra, because we need to know where her allegiances lie, because she's not from New Zealand but you live here. Are you on a Hurricanes gear? Hurricanes! I've always been Hurricanes. Have you? it. Oh, you want a Hurricanes gear? Hurricanes. Really? Hurricanes. Hurricanes. I've always been Hurricanes. Have you? Yeah. Why? Oh, because it's got that fancy tune.

Hurricanes. Hurricanes. I feel like, Kendra, you don't want to go for the best team because they've already got enough supporters. You need to beef up the others. Underdog story. Right, right, right. I love an underdog story.

But I don't want to go too far. I don't want to go for the Blues. But just the Hurricanes, right, right. I love an underdog story. But I don't want to go too far. I don't want to go for the blues. But just the Hurricanes, I think, is a good match. Nice. I'm a NACI girl. So originally, obviously, the Hurricanes is part of, you know, the NACI is part of the Hurricanes franchise. So I have a little bit of yellow and black at heart, too.

Okay. And obviously, that's very important. The Super Rugby competition is very important. But more impressingly, where are you going to be for New Year's? Well, at the start, I'm just making some plans. But I'll be up home, obviously, in the NACI with my family and then just make some plans from there. But, yeah, good times, I guess.

Rhythm and NACI. Yeah, Rhythm and NACI. Kendra, do things get loose at your family Christmas? Like, what's the deal on Christmas Day? Probably a bit more different now. But in the past, it's, you know, when all the families used to get together and there used to be heaps of us. Of course, of course.

Yeah, I mean, have a few drinks and enjoy it, but, yeah, looking forward to connecting with the family. Is there always a fight over who gets you on the backyard rugby game? Yeah, I've always got that in the backyard, especially the young kids. You're the one initiating it, eh? You're like, should we play? I bought a ball.

Should we play? Should we play? Not touch, not touch. Let's play contact, full contact. I've got my mouth guard. Got my boots, got my mouth guard. I just happened to have them. Well, there you go.

She's all set to go for Super Rugby O'Picky. That's Kendra Coxedge, everybody. Thanks for talking to us. See you, Kendra. No problem. See you later, guys. Bree and Clint. Time for the latest.

From iHeart Radio, this is the latest. Live iHeartRadio, this is The Latest. Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean's here. Jennifer Lawrence has come out and said filming with Leonardo DiCaprio was hell. Tell us about that, Dean. Yeah, so the movie, of course, is called, is it Up? Don't Look Up.

Sorry, the new Netflix film, which has so many big stars, Jennifer Lawrence, Meryl Streep, Leonardo DiCaprio, Timothee Chalamet. And she's actually opened up about the day when she had to do a scene with Leonardo DiCaprio and Timothee Chalamet in a car. And they were in a car, like, for a whole day. Like, they were very excited.

Obviously, they were very excited to be out of, as she said, the pandemic lockdown. It was, like, their first scene they'd done together. But they spent the entire day in a car going around and just redoing the scene a million times. And she's like, you know what? It was absolute bloody hell. But he was pretty tight in cheek. And from all the reports that I've read and heard, this cast, even though we're talking big stars, got along really well.

Really well. So I can't wait to see this film. It's going to be great. Being stuck in a car with Leonardo DiCaprio for a whole day sounds like a lot of people's dream. You'd be into that, wouldn't you, Bree? Yeah. That's a bit of me, but obviously, you know, being stuck in a car with any person, there is consequences. And, you know, just because they're movie stars doesn't mean they're not human. Are you saying maybe they didn't have the chance to roll the window down? I mean, maybe

in films you can't crack a window. I'm just saying, if you're stuck anywhere inside pretty much a container, then not ideal. Dean, you'd sacrifice a day. You'd hold it in for Leonardo DiCaprio. Yep. Yep, there we go. That's the latest Live Out of LA with Pepsi Max.

It's feeling the latest. Max Taste, No Sugars Given with our Hollywood. It's feeling the latest. Max Taste, no sugars given. With our Hollywood correspondent and man in the know, Dean McCarthy. Bree and Clint. ZM Share or Steal with Z Energy. All right, we're back on, everybody. We have 200 litres of ShareTank fuel, thanks to Z to give away. You can find the lowest fuel price and choose when you want to use it with Sheertank.

And today, you need to decide how much fuel you want to take away. That's right. This is how it works. Two people. One will go into the cone of silence. The other person will tell us, do you want to share it? Do you want to steal it? And then we'll ask the other person.

We'll see what happens. Let's meet our people. Abby's here. Hi, Abby. Hi, Abby. Hello. Hi. Have you got a strategy for this? Don't reveal what

it is, but you know your strategy? Yep. Yep. Alright, perfect. Sam, what about you? You know what you're going to do? Yeah, I know what I'm going to do. Okay, perfect. Sam, you're going to go into the cone of silence first, so you're going to disappear and not be able to hear what Abby has to say. We'll say goodbye to you now.

We'll be back in just a second, which means... Abby, it's just us. So let's give us the goss. What are you thinking? Yeah, I'm going to steal it. You want all 200 litres for yourself? Yeah, all 200.

So you're going to risk it because, I mean, if we talk to Sam and then she says steal as well, neither of you get anything. Yeah. All right. She wants to risk it. I mean if we talk to Sam and then she says steal as well neither of you get anything yeah all right she wants to risk it I'm risking it you're risking it will you feel bad if Sam goes home with nothing a little bit hey you gotta do what you gotta do it's the name of the game share or steal okay you can stay with us uh and keep listening Abby you just need to be quiet Sam's here hi Sam, Sam. Hi, Sam. Hi. Hey, guys.

We've got Abby's answer of what she wants to do. We just need your answer. Do you want to share the 200 litres of fuel or do you want to steal the whole lot? I'm not going to be mean. I want to share. Oh, okay. Oh, that's nice. Interesting. So you're happy with 100 litres of fuel? Yeah. That is a lot of fuel're happy with 100 litres of fuel? Yeah. That is a lot of fuel.

It's a tonne of fuel. What if Abby has said steal, though? That means you'd get nothing. That's all good. That's all good? She wants to stick with share. Yeah. Well, we can confirm Abby wants all 200 litres.

She's stolen it. It is ruthless up in here. Sam, first of all, how are you feeling? All good. All good? Yeah, all good. All good. Oh, Sam, I'm teffo for you.

But hey, you can walk away knowing that you stuck to your guns, your moral compass, and you wanted to share it. But that's all we've got for you, I'm afraid. And, Abby, we've got 200 litres of Zed Energy share tank fuel for you. Yeah, now I feel like I'm being a dung beetle. I knew you'd feel a little bit bad. I was going to say, do you feel bad now? I don't.

I'm so sorry. Do you want to change your mind? That's not how the game works. But if you had the option, would you change your mind? If I had the option, it's not how the game works. Ah, you had the option, would you change your mind? If I had the option, it's not how the game works. Ah, don't hide behind the rules. There you go. That's Share or Steal.

We're playing a game tomorrow. It's thanks to ShareTank. It's said you can lock in Zed's lowest fuel price in a 30km radius. Or you can save it for later or you can share it right now. If your family are coming for a visit this summer, you can shout their fuel as well with ShareTank. So far in this game, the percentage is swaying in the Steelers' side. Three Steels, one Share. We'll play again tomorrow.

Gone by lunchtime. Grab one now wherever you get your podcasts. I saw this article and found it quite funny because Rebel Wilson, very famous actress, obviously from Australia, and I think a lot of the time people think that that is a stage name,

Rebel Wilson, but it's not. It's her real name. That's the name her parents gave her. She's got a really large full name. I think it's like five different names. Well, in the middle. Yeah. I think she's got quite a lot of names,

but her first name is Rebel and her last name is Wilson. Yeah, right. It's a great, you know how people have a name that sounds like you should be famous? Yeah, sounds like a famous name. Like Dane Rumble. Yeah. You're born to be a star.

She has quite a few siblings. Did you know that? No. I think she's got three siblings. None of them are in the acting business. But there's an article and there's tweets doing the rounds at the moment where people are somehow shocked that her brothers

and sisters have quite unusual names. Well, if her name's Rebel, like we're used to Rebel because she's a household name, Rebel Wilson. But on its own, Rebel is quite an unusual name. It is an unusual name. Rebel. Yeah. I said to you earlier, Rebel, because I always look at these names and I picture them on a baby because at some stage it had to be given to a baby, unusual name. Rebel. Yeah. I said to you earlier, rebel, because I always look at these names

and I picture them on a baby because at some stage it had to be given to a baby, this name. I quite like it. And I picture this baby in a leather jacket with some sunglasses on, pulling the fingers, you know. He's got a little baby tattoo on his arm that says, I love milk. That's my idea of a rebel baby. Yeah.

She, I'll give you the other siblings' names and you decide if she's got the most unusual but um so two years after rebel um she had a they had another girl and her name's liberty which is probably the most normal name out of the whole lot and then after that there was a brother. His name is Riot. R-Y-O-T. Right. Riot. No, not Riot. Riot. That was a bad joke from my story.

How did you spell it? R-Y-O-T. Oh, the finister. Yeah. Yeah. They put their own spin on it. What's the next one called? Revolt?

Protest? The youngest sibling who is another girl, her name is spelled A-N-N-A-C-H-I. Anarchy. Yeah, right. Which apparently reports is that her real name is Annalise but her nickname is Anarchy and she only likes to be called Anarchy. Right, okay. They're all protest type names. They're all like their parents all protest type names they're all like like their

parents are oh there's a theme anti-establishment there's definitely a thing yeah yeah yeah um there's a theme throughout the letter that's for sure um but i feel like there'd be a lot that is a that's quite a funny name to give a kid they must have loved that tv show you can't be upset though if your kid turns out to be an anarchist. Like if he's just or she is just wild and you called them anarchy or rebel, you know, well, you name them. Yeah. I'm going to name my kid Alchemist and then just hope.

What does Alchemist do? Don't they make potions and stuff? Oh, yeah. Like make, like medicines? Are you going to hope that your kid makes potions? Yeah. Right, okay. You know, mix up a few. Oh, you want them to be successful.

Just name your kid pharmacist. Oh, cool. Yeah. Farmy for short. Just name your kid structural engineer. Yeah. Good idea. I thought we could ask people because, I mean, that family.

This is my son, Chief Justice. That family right there has a group of siblings that all have quite unusual names and I feel like... They have a theme. They have a theme. I want to talk to families that have a similar kind of, you know, similar kind of thing in their family. A creative theme.

Where all the siblings got an unusual name. Doesn't necessarily have to be in a theme, but you know for a fact that all of you got quite a unique name. Yeah. Are you three brothers and you got each of the Jonas Brothers names? You got Nick, Joe, and who's the other one? Kevin. It's Kevin.

He's my favourite one too. Poor Kevin. Poor guy. 0800 DIAL ZM. Do you and your siblings have unusual or unique names? You can also text us on 9696. I can't wait to talk to a pharmacist. Yeah, pharmy.

Yeah, pharmy. Yeah, yeah. Bree and Clint. Turns out people are freaking out because they found out what Rebel Wilson's siblings' names are and they're shocked that they're unusual. Her name's Rebel. Yeah. So, I mean, you could have guessed.

They all have a little bit – there's a theme. They're punky. Yeah, there's a theme across the whole family. She's got another sister named Liberty, a brother named Riot, and the youngest sibling named Anarchy. So we're asking you this afternoon on 0800 Dial ZM, do you and your siblings all have quite unusual names? Ashley's called up.

It's your sons that have the unusual names. Yes, they do. Oh, I'm interested, Ashley. Tell us what you named them. So the eldest is called Sagan, which means king slash president of hell. Okay. Zagan, was it?

Zagan, yeah. And the youngest is called Lekos, which is wolf in Greek. So say the last one again. Lekos. Right. Why did you name, beautiful names, why did you name your son after the president of hell? Well, so my partner's into that sort of stuff, so he got to name him.

Yeah, right. Right. And did you get to name the second son? Yes, I did. Yeah, you're like, we're going to give her a nice wolf for this one. Do you guys, I mean, I don't know if you're planning on having any more. Did you have an idea of what you'd name a girl if you had one? No clue. No clue.

No clue. You'll get to that if it happens. Say Tanya. Maybe? No, just an idea. There's a thought starter. Do with that what you want. Joel's here. Hi, Joel. G'day, Joel. Hey, how's it going? Good, thanks. My kids' names are Maz after Maz Quinn, the surfer.

Yeah. And Ocean, Reef, River, and Taj after Taj Bro, the surfer. Yeah. And Ocean, Reef, River, and Taj after Taj Bro, the surfer. Jeez, how many bloody kids have you got, Joel? Well, five. The children flow like water in your family, don't they? You've got a whole squad. Yeah, yeah. Were you tempted to go with Wave or... Kelly.

Oh, Kelly? Well, I got told Sandy, which is quite boring, but... Oh, yeah. Sandy wouldn't be bad. Crab. Shell. Shell, if you have another one. Great White.

Marco. No, I like that. Marco. Marco's cool. What a cool little brood of kids. I love it, Joel. Do they all surf? Are they old enough?

Yeah, I try to get them to, but they just like playing on the sand and stuff. Yeah, right. You'd be gutted if they weren't into surfing, eh? You would be. You'd be so gutted. You're like, I gave you the name Reef for a reason. Now, you're not even bloody surfing.

There's so many on the text machine. I just need to read a few of these out. Someone said, I knew sisters and their names were Holly Rose and Yellow Rose. Oh, yeah. I mean, that's a theme, isn't it? There's someone else who said, we named our kids after three major empires, Arthur, August and Magnus. Right, okay.

Which, interesting. Someone else said, I've got, my kids' names are Ania, Olive and Wolf. They're quite cool. Yep. Quite hippie, those names, eh? Yeah. Yeah, but I quite like them. Someone else said, my brother's name is Tarkin and my mum's name is Sunshine.

Oh, yeah. So I know a couple of sunshines. Every person I know called Sunshine fits the name so much. Yeah, they really do, don't they? They're such a sunshine. Someone else said, I used to babysit a brother and sister called Rainbow name so much. Yeah, they really do, don't they? They're such a sunshine. Someone else said, I used to babysit a brother and sister called Rainbow and Greenpeace. Oh, yeah, like the Rainbow Warrior.

There's a theme obviously going through that. And just there's so many good texts on this, so many people who have met siblings who all have unusual names. But what about you, Coco? Yeah, my name's Coco and my sister is Meadow. Oh yeah, cool. I see, I see. Yeah, and I have cousins as well and their names are Saoirse, Aoife, Luna, Rio, Avarangi and Tiare. Wow, okay. Are they all from the same family or they're all just your cousins or they're from the same family? So my dad has three brothers and they're all his kids.

Okay, what are your dad and his brother's names? Because you guys have all got creative, ethereal kind of names. Are your dad and his brother's names like John? My dad and his brothers, they have super basic names. But my grandma actually named them after her boyfriend that she had. She named her sons after her boyfriends? Yeah. But not their dads?

No. No, no, no. They all had the same dad, but all her past boyfriends. Wait, so wait, so wait. Coco, let me get my head around this. That's amazing. Your grandma got married to a guy and then she had three kids, but she named all the three kids after her ex-boyfriends.

Yeah, so she had four kids. So she had Timothy, who's my dad, and then Jeremy, Christopher, and Andrew, and they're all names of her past boyfriends. What would she have done if she had a girl? I think. Well, you don't know what grandma got up to. Yeah, I know. I'm just thinking. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, who knows her grandma? Saucy. Yeah.

Did your papa know? Did he know that that's why they were getting those names? I don't know. Maybe. Wow. I think so. What a great story. That's such a good story. Your family sounds wild and I'd love to be there at Christmas time, Coco. Yeah. Thanks, Coco. Merry Christmas.

Thank you. See you, mate. Bye. Got a situation I want to put to you guys and the people. And it's a woman who has taken to Reddit to ask if her husband is being a bit of an a-hole. Oh, yeah. She said, my husband is turning 30 next month. It's a big deal for him, clearly.

And he wanted to be pampered and feel special on this occasion. She said he came up with a list of birthday month expectations. Oh, people who do birthday month are the worst. Not birthday week, not birthday fortnight, birthday month. Birthday month. There is no such thing as a birthday month. So this is what he expected throughout the entire month of his 30th birthday. He said he doesn't want to be asked to do any chores.

He gets to play Xbox whenever he wants, and he doesn't have to pay his share of the rent. What? No, wait, there's more. He can go out with his friends whenever he wants. He gets to skip work and sleep in without being bothered to wake up to drive their son to school or do any emergency fixes. So she said, in my opinion, in other words, he's saying he wants a month-long vacation

and time off from his responsibilities as a partner and as a father. What you have here is a man who is turning 30, but in reality is regressing back into being a child. That's what he wants. I feel like that's a lot to ask. I mean, if it was for a week, I would probably, like being her, I'd probably be like, okay, I love this man. He's my husband, father of my child.

He wants to do this for a week. It would get old after two days, honestly. It would, but I would probably come to the table for a week, a month. No thanks. I can see all of those demands being met possibly for the birthday, for one day, for that one day. You're only giving him one day. Well, that's the only day you get.

That's your birthday. That's why it's called a birthday, not a birth week. I know, but it's his 30th and he wants to have a blowout, you know? Come on. One day. That's a pretty epic one day for your birthday. No chores Video games No work

That sounds fun But a week You'd only give him one day If that I wouldn't even give him all the things on there I wouldn't I'd like What if your wife

Let's put you in the situation What if your wife came to you and said This is what I want For my birthday How long are you going What if your wife came to you and said, this is what I want for my birthday. How long are you going to give your wife? One day? Be careful. Feels like a loaded question.

But I didn't marry someone who would do this. No, no, no. I didn't marry a child. This is hypothetical. This is how hypothetical world works. Yeah. So she comes to me and she says, it's my 30th birthday.

I want all of this. Nice of her to turn 30 again. I want to do it for a month. But you come to the table. It's a bargaining, you know, it's a bargaining type of thing. And how long do you say that she can do that for? So I get no help with the kids for this period of time. She just gets to do whatever she wants.

Right. If we're negotiating. Yes. And she's come in with a month. She said a month. Yeah. So I'll go hard one day. I'll say, no, you get a day.

But because that's how you negotiate them down. If I say a week straight away, we're going to meet in the middle at two weeks. So I'll go a day and she'll go, I want a fortnight. And I'll go, you're dreaming, two days. And then we might. God, you're ruthless at this negotiating. I think it's way too much.

So you would say two days max. Yeah, two days max. Yeah, that's fair, I think. I'd like to hear people's opinion on 9696. Text them through. I sound like a Grinch. Read out the list of demands again that this guy wants. So he said he wants, he doesn't want to do any chores.

He wants to play Xbox whenever he wants. He doesn't want to have to pay his share of the rent. Yeah. He wants to skip work and sleep in. He gets to hang out with his friends whenever he wants. He doesn't want to be bothered to wake up to drive their son to work. Yeah. He doesn't want to do any fixing around the house.

I think that's it. Yeah, right. Yeah. Maybe I was being a bit extreme. Maybe that's not that bad. Maybe three days. Maybe three days if she's lucky. Three days, but that's pushing it.

Lucky the 30th has passed. We don't have to face this one. Hey, there's always 40. Nah, 40's just I want to get drunk. Surely that's what 40 is. She can do that. And I'm like, I want to get drunk with you. For a month.

It's not my situation. It's a guy that's taken to Reddit to ask who's in the wrong. Is he the a-hole or is his brother and his sister-in-law the a-holes? Double a-holes. Double a-holes. One in, one out. Two of them. He said, I'm not really one to care about dogs' names, but I'd planned to get my absolute all-time favourite dream dog. So he'd planned a long time for this dog. It was a Clumber Spaniel and there was a long wait list.

So for about a year he was on the wait list with this breeder and finally he said he got the word that the dog had had the puppies and in 10 weeks he was going to receive one. I just gurgled clumber spaniel. Cute dog. Oh, my God, very cute. Yeah, looks a bit dopey. Yeah, a little bit dopey, very cute dog.

Yeah. Anyway, he was very excited when he found out that he was finally getting this dog, which he'd picked out the name for it over the past year. Right. So he picked out a name and he was hanging out with his entire family and he broke the news to them and said, oh, I'm getting this dog, this dream dog of mine in 10 weeks. I'm with dog. I'm expecting it's a dog. I'm expecting. Anyway, he said to them,

I've already picked the name. I really want to name the dog Maybelline. Okay. So that was the name he picked out. And he said, everyone really loved the name. Unusual name for a dog. I mean, I've heard weirder. Yeah, that's true too.

But maybe he picked it because he hasn't heard someone else call a dog that. Mabel, Maybelline, yeah. Maybe May for short, which would be cute. Anyway, he said especially his brother and his sister-in-law loved the name. He said then fast forward a month or so and my sister-in-law announces that she's pregnant and they've already found out that it's a girl. They were all super excited and they were like, you know,

what are you going to name it? What are you going to name it? Do you have any names in mind? And they said, yes, we've already picked out the name. Oh, they did not. We're keen on naming it Maybelline. Nah. Anyway, he said he sat there and he was like, don't make a comment,

don't make a comment, when eventually he did make a comment and he said, that's what I'm going to call my puppy. And they were like, no, that's what we're going to call our first daughter. Anyway, apparently the sister-in-law took him to the side and said, are you willing to change the name of your dog considering we're going to name our daughter Maybelline? Anyway, this guy said, look, I'll think about it. change the name of your dog considering we're going to name our daughter Maybelline. Yeah. Anyway, this guy said, look, I'll think about it.

Anyway, he thought about it and then still named the dog Maybelline, which obviously he got before they had the baby. Yeah, yeah. So he named the dog Maybelline. Anyway, apparently the whole family found out that he's called this dog Maybelline. Yeah. And they were super upset with him. Yeah, he looks like the bad guy because it's a dog.

And they were like, not cool, man. Like, that's so disrespectful to your brother and your sister-in-law and your unborn niece. Anyway, so he has now asked, is he in the wrong or are they in the wrong? Right. What a nightmare. Can I ask, is there possibly mitigating circumstances? Like, is Maybelline, do we know if Maybelline is a family name? Like, was that grandma's name or something?

Yeah, I think she was born with it. But, you know, like, is it a name that they wanted to carry on? It doesn't say. It doesn't say, right. But from how I read the story. Did Grandma Maybelline want her name passed down to a child or a dog? But how I read the story is that he's like, I decided on the name Maybelline. There's no reference to it.

I don't think so. It's weird, eh, because you absolutely have to keep your kids' names a secret, not just for people stealing them, because you don't want people's opinions on it. But you never think about having to keep a dog's name a secret, not just for people stealing them, because you don't want people's opinions on it. But you never think about having to keep a dog's name a secret. I know. Who would have thought? Who would have thought?

But a good name is a good name. You know, people will take inspiration anywhere. Is it a good name? I think it's a strange name for a dog. But good name for the girl. Well, Mabel. I think they can go by Mabel. Yeah, but then just call her Mabel.

True. Well, call the kid Mabel then and call the dog Maybelline. Everyone wins. Or call them both Maybelline. I reckon they'll be best friends. Yeah, they'd be pretty cute. You know? I want to know from people because, yeah, I mean, it's a tough situation.

0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. Whose side are you on? The guy who picked out the name Maybelline for his dog, his dream dog, told everyone, and then a month later, his sister-in-law and the brother said, we're pregnant and we're naming our daughter Maybelline. Yeah, whose side are you on, the humans or the dogs? Yes.

I feel like this will be a bit one-sided, but we'll see what we get. We'll see what we get. Well, the family was on the brothers' and the sister-in-law's side. Yeah, the family are smoking crack. We're deep in this name controversy where a guy has said he was getting his dream dog and he shared with his family what he was going to call the dog because he had the name picked out for a long time. He said, I'm going to call the dog Maybelline.

Everyone loved the name. And then a month later, the sister-in-law and the brother said, we're pregnant, it's a girl, and we're to call the dog Maybelline. Everyone loved the name. And then a month later, the sister-in-law and the brother said, we're pregnant, it's a girl, and we're going to name it Maybelline. Anyway, he was like, screw them. I'm still going to call my dog Maybelline, which he did. And the family are now angry at him. Yeah, him. Saying it's disrespectful.

How dare you. To your unborn niece. What about the baby? What about the baby? What about the baby? Anyway, we're asking you on 0800 Dials at M, who's in the wrong? Corey's here. G'day, Corey. G'day, Corey.

Hey, guys. How you doing? Good, thanks. Who's in the wrong, Corey? Oh, the family, for sure. I'm totally on the guy's side. I just think, you know, some people can't have children, so a dog is the equivalent of someone's child.

I totally agree with you. Even if you don't go that far, it's just cooked. Yeah, well, exactly. I mean, it shouldn't be first and first serve, but there's nothing wrong with having, like you said,

Clint, the name the same. The kid will love it. But to him, who knows what his situation is, but he obviously cares so much for this dog and it's his dream dog. It is like his kid

and he's picked out this name. Yeah. Oh, totally. But it's sociopathic of the sister like his kid and he's picked out this name. Yeah. Oh, totally. But it's sociopathic of the sister-in-law to hear that name and then turn around and go, we're going to take that name. Exactly. And not acknowledge it. You know, because that's what it sounds like.

Like she's pretending they came up with it. Okay, Corey, good. Or at least have the conversation with him first and say, hey, are you okay? We really love this name. What can we give you in exchange for the name? Yeah. Yeah.

Totally. The way they went about it, not good. Gaz is here. G'day, Karen. Hi, Karen. Hi. How are you going? Good, thanks.

What do you think, Karen? Who's in the wrong? Definitely the dog's side. You're telling me that he had a meeting with them a month beforehand with all the family, and he says, I'm going to call this dog Maybelline. And the brother and the sister-in-law were there at that meeting. And then you start telling me a month later, they say

we're going to have a baby and we're going to call it Maybelline. And the whole family kick up a fuss because at him, who was in the right in the first place, who had chosen the name in the first place. So, yeah. I'm definitely on his side. Karen, has this happened to you before?

No You just sound very passionate about it And I love the passion This is why you don't mess with a Karen No I love that passion Karen You guys come in with hate Hey but I have to say But I have to say

I think it was Bree who said Mabel is a nice name. And I could imagine his dog being called Mabel or even the child, but Mabel is such a nice name. Yeah, it's much better than Maybelline in my opinion. Yeah, it is. It actually is. When I heard you say Mabel, I thought.

Cute name, Mabel, actually. Man, it's beautiful. So, yeah, but definitely, definitely, he's on the right. He is definitely on the right. So, Karen, we'll put you down. You're on the family side. I was a bit unsure of which side you were on, Karen, but I think you're on the dog's owner's side.

I'm on the dog's side. Someone on the text machine, this is quite interesting, they said, when I was growing up, my childhood dog's name was Luca and when my third child was born, I decided to name him Luca after my childhood dog. My family were horrified that I named him the same name as my childhood dog but my argument was is that my dog was my absolute best friend and I loved that dog more than anything.

So the name had good connotations to it. Yeah, that's good. That's so cute. I love that. Bo's here. G'day, Bo. G'day, Bo. Hi. You have a similar experience in your life, is that right? Yeah, yeah. You know, I think they should both just totally go for it and call their dog and their baby Maybelle. Go for it, hey. Why not? Pretty cute, eh? Yeah. It's a really cool name and if they both love it, then they both should just go for it, hey. Why not? Pretty cute, eh? Yeah, it's a really cool name.

And if they both love it, then they both should just go for it. You know, when we were pregnant last time, my wife and I, and we were, because you have to come up with boys' names and girls' names. Fido?

No, not Fido. Was that an option? No, but we named our cats Ziggy and Bowie. And thinking of boys' names, I was like, why do we waste the good names on the cats? And I was thinking, could we double name?

Could we name the baby the same name as one of the cats? Or could we change the cat's name? But Ziggy and Bowie would be cute for a girl too. Yeah, well, true actually. Would have been quite cute as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just double up. Just reuse it.

The animal's not going to frigging know. Reuse it over. Yeah, but I think it's what people think where they're like, did you name your animals and your kids the same name? Yeah, screw you. They're my animals and my kids. Someone on the text machine said, this happened to me, but in reverse. My workmate did it on purpose.

They named their dog after my unborn son's name. See, again, that is sociopathic. That's ruthless and not on. Jess, finally, whose side are you on? The dogs or the families? The dogs. Just because I've been in the same position as this guy has, but I had my dog first and named him Bo, and then my brother

and sister-in-law came to me and said, can you change your dog's name because we want to name our son Bowden and name him Bo for short. And I'd had my dog for like six years and they wanted me to change my dog's name. And I was like, what? Jess, are you kidding me? That makes me so angry. Were they angry when you wouldn't change the dog's name? Oh, yeah.

They didn't turn up for Christmas one year because I wouldn't change my dog's name. That's intense. Are they aware of how long dogs live for? Like they could just like, not to be grim, but they could just go with it and it will resolve itself eventually. That is... Oh, exactly. Like I said,

well, you can still name yourself Bowden or Bow, but I was like, I might change my dog's name. Sorry, I just realised my solution was... That was so grim. My solution was

the dog will be dead soon. Real grim for you, Clint. Sorry, sorry, Jess. Jess. That's all right. Is Bow listening? Hope not. Well, he's in the back of the car. Sorry, sorry, Jess. Sorry. Is Bo listening? Hope not. No, he's in the back of the car.

Oh, now look what you've done, Clint. Poor Bo. That's better than what I thought you'd done. He's looking a bit sad now. Sorry, Bo. I thought you were about to go, no, actually, Bo. No, don't worry. No, no, no.

You can hang out with his cousin, Bo, and they'll be fine. Yeah, yeah. Sorry, Jess. We're going to do birthday magnets. Yeah, yeah. Oh, Brie and Clint. Sorry, Jess. We're going to do birthday bang next. Hey, Jess, don't worry. Your dog will be dead soon and then you can hang out with your brother and your sister. They'll be all good. Pet your nephew.

I mean, on the bright side, glass are full. Dogs die early. Birthday. I got it, okay. Brie and Clint. Hey, it's my birthday. It's my birthday. Brie and Clint's birthday banger.

This is the segment where we take your birthplace and we figure out what was the song that was actually number one when you turned 16. We'll start with Hannah. Afternoon, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. Hi, guys. How's your day been?

Good, good. Busy. Busy? What do you do with yourself? I work in a vet clinic, so flat out. Oh, my God. My dog went to the vets today. Really?

Yeah, she had like... I hope it wasn't nothing too bad. Yeah, she had all the vaccinations and she was a bit annoyed because she's an anti-vaxxer. No, no. No, no, she was fine. She was barking, my buddy, my choice. You guys are awesome. But yes, there were so many people there.

Did you, I always wonder, this is where my mind goes with vets, Hannah, and I'm sorry, it's a bit immature. How many rectal thermometers did you have to put in today? I didn't do any because I'm on the front desk, thank goodness. Is it a good day? Is it a good day when you don't have to do any rectal thermometers? Yeah, yeah, just the best. Yeah, good, okay.

She's on the front desk. She's like, well, you know, unless I'm doing it for fun. Unless I'm sticking it in myself. Yeah, yeah. Quick, Anna, let's do your birthday. Baga, what's your birthday? 7th of the 1st, 1997. All right, you were 16 in 2013.

And on the 7th of January, on your 16th birthday, this was number one. I'm going to pop some Jags. Only got $20 in my pocket. Banger. Ooh. Macklemore's first hit. Yeah. Do you like it, Anna?

I mean, yeah, it could be better, but I'll take it. Oh, okay. All right. Could be worse, though. Could be worse. Could be a lot worse. Yeah, yeah, it could be better, but I'll take it. Okay, all right. Could be worse, though. Could be worse. Could be a lot worse. Yeah, yeah. My partner still thinks to this day that it's Macklemore.

Yeah. Do you correct her? Sometimes. Right, you're that guy. But, you know, I mean, you know, it's been eight years. Let it go. How often does Macklemore come up? Yeah, right.

Okay, wait there, Hannah. We've got to talk to Niamh. Kia ora, Niamh. Hi, Niamh. Hi. How's things at Parliament? come up? Yeah, right. Okay, wait there, Hannah. We've got to talk to Niamh. Kia ora, Niamh. Hi, Niamh. Hi. How's things at Parliament? Do it. Say the joke.

Say the joke. Say the joke. I was going to say, how's your mum? How's Jacinda? I wouldn't know. Sorry, Niamh. You had the name first, which means we make jokes about her and not you. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay. Where are you? What's your birthday, Niamh? Or is this the actual Prime Minister's daughter? No, but I am a preschool teacher, so I could teach her. Oh, yeah. Wow, interesting. Yeah, true, yeah.

Niamh, the baby can't play birthday bagger. We can't tell what's going to be number one or 16th. That's like 13 years away. I mean, she's very advanced. Exactly. Yeah, right. Niamh, let's do your birthday banger. It's about you.

What's your birthday? 16th of February, 1999. All right. You were 16 in 2015. And on the 16th of February, on your birthday, this was number one. I'm tough, I'm gonna give it to you. Cause I'm tough, I'm gonna give it to you. Saturday night and we in the spot. Yeah. Don't believe me, just watch. On your birthday, this was number one. Yeah.

That's a good birthday bang, Aniv. Do you like it? Yeah, it is good. It's really good. Yeah. Very upbeat. Good energy. Definitely the biggest song of 2015.

Huge. It was massive. Yeah, yeah. We should do a topic on what baby stole your name, Thunder. Yeah, what famous baby stole your name. Yeah, what famous baby ripped your name off. We have all the apples call up. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like that bloody Gwyneth Paltrow's baby.

I'm not sure there were any apples before that baby. You sure? Yeah. There could have been. Sarah's here. Let's do Sarah. Hi, Sarah. Hi, Sarah.

Hey, guys. How are you? Good, thank you. That's good, Sarah. Hi, Sarah. Hi, Sarah. Hi, guys. How are you? Good, thank you. That's good, Sarah. What's your birthday? 10th of December, 1981. Oh, wait, that's tomorrow. It is. Oh, happy birthday for tomorrow. Thank you. Do you get joint presents, Sarah? No, thankfully, I'm far enough away from Christmas. You're lucky. You're one of the lucky ones. Well, I'm happy for you. I reckon anything with a two in front of it, it's a joint prison. You reckon?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Is that the rules? Well, it's what my gut feel is. Okay. Your birthday's two, college, I'll just get you double prisoned. But my birthday's got a three. Oh, you're on the other side. Yes.

Yeah. So how far past the other side is a joint prison? When we go back to work. That's ages. Okay, sorry, Sarah. You were 16 in 1997, and on the 10th of December in 97, this had a number one hit. Yes, Sarah.

That's a great birthday banger. Chumbawamba. Yes. That's one of my all-time favourite pump-up songs. One of the worst band names ever. So bad. And one of the worst song names too. Tub-thumping.

Doesn't make any sense. Maybe we don't know the language. But, Sarah, I love it and I'm going to vote for you to win birthday banger today. I'm going with you, Sarah. You've won today. Happy birthday for tomorrow, okay? Have a good birthday. And enjoy those non-joint presents. Brandon Clint, here's birthday bangers. Hit him. today. Happy birthday for tomorrow, okay? Have a good birthday and enjoy

those non-joint presents. Brian Clint, his birthday bangers, isn't him? Brian Clint. Old bloody Elon Musk, old bloody

Tesla guy, old bloody used to bloody go out with bloody Grimes guy, old, you know, musky, old bloody PayPal guy. Yeah, I know who

Elon is. Old South African billionaire guy. His company Neuralink, that's the company which creates brain chips. We talked about them earlier this year, as in microchips that get implanted inside your skull, inside your brain. He hopes to plant the first chips

into human beings' brains next year. Yeah, this could be very revolutionary for people who suffer from certain diseases, who have had accidents. Yes. It could be a massive game changer for so many people. Totally. That's where it starts, and that's where they're going to start as well.

He said the first to get the device will be those who have had severe spinal cord injuries like quadriplegics. Obviously, pending approval, he said. But this is where it gets really interesting. He said, I think we have a chance, and he stressed it, a chance with Neuralink of being able to restore full body functionality to someone who's had a spinal cord injury. I mean, he aims big. He always shoots for the moon. Literally, he built a space company.

I hope it's true. I hope he's right. Do I think it'll be next year? No. I think there's a long way to go until they perfect this. And it's safe for your brain. But that's just the beginning. Helping people with injuries is the beginning. After that, it's all on. It's up to you.

If you want to change the TV channel with your brain, just do it. Just blink and change the TV channel. Oh, I don't know about that. If you want to, if you've got a date over and you want to like light the gas fire and have a romantic playlist come on all at the same time and the lights just dim, just like do it with your brain and it should be like, oh my God, wow. I feel like I'd be creeped out.

Yeah, you would be at first. But where it gets really interesting is you'll be able to send an email with your brain just by thinking about it. But what happens when you're drunk? Is this what he said or is this what you're saying? No, this is where it will go because it's – No, but has he said this is what we'll be able to do? Are you creating these things?

No, no, no, no. He's put it in monkeys already and monkeys have been able to control – Have they sent emails? No, they haven no, no. He's put it in monkeys already and monkeys have been able to control. Have they sent emails? No, they haven't sent emails. But they've been able to control video games telepathically. So that's where it's going. You just control your devices through your brain. But imagine if you get drunk.

Imagine the drunk texts that your brain would be able to send if you had the chip already in your head. Yeah, see, this is why I don't think it's a good idea. Also, there's the issue of we're going to have to create different kinds of superheroes now because, I mean, Loki, not relevant anymore. No. Superman's, oh, no, you don't get x-ray vision.

What's the guy out of X-Men that uses the brain? Dr. Magneto. Magneto, not relevant. Or is he metal? Who's the guy? No, Xavier. Xavier. Yeah, when you get this chip in your brain,

you'll be able to shoot webs out of your hand. Spider-Man. Hey, well, I mean, you know, you laugh at that, but if they're doing these things where they're putting chips in your brain and you can send an email, who knows what the future holds. What a superpower, eh? Yeah. If you don't step back, I will email your manager

I'm doing it as we speak Stop, Thanos Or I'll text your mum with my brain Don't move, I'll send it I'll bloody send it Listen up, 430 You can tell I'll do it, eh? How many brownies have you had?

None, that's the problem Listen up, 420 enthusiasts. Because a US cannabis company is celebrating National Brownie Day by baking what it believes is the world's biggest weed brownie ever. How big are we talking? So the brownie itself, being made by Marimed Inc., is 90 centimetres long, 90 centimetres deep and 38 centimetres high. Yeah, that's a big brownie.

So it's big. It's almost a metre squared. Yeah. And then... How much weed was in it, does it say? So it does, and those who know will know, but I don't really know. It contains 20,000 milligrams of THC. No idea what that means. Yeah, no idea what that means.

How much is usually in a weed? No idea. In a joint, whoops. In a weed? How much is usually in a weed? How much weed? 20,000 milligrams of THC in it. Is that the one?

Because what are the different TH things? Yeah, so THC is the psychoactive one that gets you high. Makes you feel high. And CBD is the one that makes you feel stoned. Like relaxed. Yeah. That kind of stoned. What, relaxed?

Relaxed. Yeah, relaxed. Gotcha. Well, relaxed, yeah. That's why they put CBD in beauty products and stuff like that. I'm keen to have a CBD brownie. I'm keen to like relax. A CBD brownie.

Yeah, yeah. I'm sure they make those. They definitely do. I'm sure they do. I know what you're wondering. What happens to this brownie after they've made it? People eat it, obviously. They've got a three, by the way, it's 358 kilos, this brownie.

That's crazy. No, people don't eat it. Well, someone does. It's being sent to their dispensary, and this 358-kilo brownie will be sold to one medical marijuana patient. One person. One? One.

Where are they going to put that? Can you imagine cutting that thing up to put it in your freezer? Getting all your Tupperware containers out? You'd need to buy a whole freezer just for that brownie. My question, though, is how do they know that it is the world's biggest brownie? You know? Because someone listening right now may have baked a 400-kilo brownie, but you're not exactly going to post about it, are you?

No. You're not going to talk about it in New Zealand because it's not legal. No, someone could have done it here in New Zealand. I mean. Someone in Gizzy listening right now go, 350 kilos, you should see what I'm baking for Christmas. A friend of mine told me the funniest story about a marijuana brownie the other day where apparently. Wait, where did Bob Marley go? Quick, get Bob Marley back for this story.

There he is, yeah. So, look, it was over the holiday period, apparently. This is all alleged. I got for this story. There is, yeah. So, look, it was over the holiday period, apparently. This is all alleged. I got told this story. And one of the siblings had had some weed brownies at the house. Yeah. And they'd, you know, had a good time. And there was a few left over.

And they'd put those in the fridge. They were in the fridge for a couple of days. And their mum was away at the time but came back from holidays and they'd forgot that these weed brownies were in a container at the back of the fridge. Turns out the mum, quite peckish for a brownie, ate one at the time of her life. I was going to say, she would have loved it. Well, she freaked out at first because you would because you'd be like,

what the hell's going on with me? And then once the sibling had realised what was going on, they told her and then she had fun. See, my friends had the exact same thing happen with their mother, but she was drinking at the same time. Oh, no good. And they were all eating the brownies and they knew what they were eating, but they hadn't told mum. And then mum ate one. And then she goes, oh, these gins are pretty strong. And they go, yeah, pretty strong gin mum.

Yep, that's what it is. Maybe you don't have any more gin. I hope she didn't get sick. What do they say? Beers before grass and you're on your ass. Grass before beers. You're in the clears. I don't know if that's true by the way. I don't know but that's the saying apparently.

Yeah, there you go. Giant brownie. Do with that what you want. Don't do drugs, kids. That's the message from the Brian Clint Show. Play ZM's Brian Clint. On Insta, Facebook, TikTok, and live weekdays from 3 on ZM. Feed by KFC. Get the full menu delivered to your door with the KFC app.
