Welcome to the podcast. What's this? I've been looking at this all day. What is this?
Oh, that's a lip gloss slash lipstick. I think it's Megan's from Flauton.
Oh, is it not yours? No.
I'm not going to use it, but I thought it was yours.
It's a nice colour though.
I thought it was yours. I wouldn't understand what this was for.
You wouldn't know what that's for?
I would have said this was an eye thing.
Yeah, it's weird how lipsticks have gone from...
It's on a stick, everybody.
Instead of...
What does it smell like?
It's a lip gloss.
Like a lipstick.
It's now like a lip gloss, but they're lipsticks.
It smells like...
Remember that plasticine stuff you used to make little models out of as a kid?
Play-Doh.
Yeah, kind of Play-Doh.
Who used to eat the Play-Doh? who used to eat the play-doh i
used to eat the play-doh you were only the real munted kids would eat the play-doh you'd be like
uh-oh gavin's eating the play-doh again were you a play-doh muncher you would not a lot like i
wouldn't be like oh i'm gonna chow down on heaps of play-doh but i definitely used to be like oh
are you just saying that because I shamed you?
No, I'd own it,
but I did eat it on multiple occasions.
What was your favorite color?
I think they all tasted the same,
to be honest.
No, they did taste the same,
but surely you were like.
It's real salty.
See, you do know what it tastes like.
No, I don't know what it tastes like.
You've never tasted Play-Doh.
Not to my memory.
How good was,
and I don't know if your parents did this,
and I don't know if your guys' parents did this,
homemade Play-Doh? Did your parents make homemade Play- don't know if your guys parents did this Homemade playdough
Did your parents make homemade playdough
Yeah we made homemade playdough
How good was playing with playdough
Fresh out of the oven
When it was still warm
That was good
Oh that was luxurious
Did you guys ever made that
That goopy stuff with cornstarch
Nah
You never made that
Oh is that the stuff that you slap your hand at
Yeah you like slap it
And it does it
It'll like
Is that slime Is that what slime is Nah it's Yeah, you like slap it and it does it. Is that slime?
Is that what slime is?
No, it's not slime.
No, it's like the particles and the corn flour.
It's like soft to touch.
And then when you slap it, it's hard.
It's like a science experiment.
Yeah, it's real weird.
Kinky.
It's really cool.
No, it's not kinky.
Slap it.
No, it's not kinky.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle.
Spank it.
What other stuff would you make at home?
Slime?
We never made slime, but that's a big thing with kids these days.
Now it is.
Yeah, people love slime.
We weren't allowed that sort of stuff at home because my dad,
now my dad's got a sauce phobia.
What?
You weren't allowed Play-Doh?
No, we were allowed Play-Doh.
That's about as gooey as it got.
Anything more gooey than that and my dad would have conniptions.
I'm so sorry.
If you're late to the, you know, like I was a couple years late to the show.
Yeah.
What's your dad's sauce phobia?
Oh, it is what it sounds like.
Does he not like slimy stuff?
He has a phobia of all sauces.
He doesn't have any condiments.
Thick liquids.
Thick liquids, yeah.
But then he'll eat pasta, won't he?
He'll eat macaroni cheese.
That's sauce?
And he loves, I know, mate, I know.
What about bolognese? He'll eat pizza because the sauce is under the cheese. That's sauce? I know, mate. I know. What about bolognese?
He'll eat pizza because the sauce is under the cheese.
That doesn't make any sense.
It doesn't make any sense.
But if you go to a pub with him.
You can talk.
You're afraid of old fruit.
No, that's better than original.
Just as weird.
Mine, that's a decaying phobia.
His is a condiment phobia.
We'll go to a bar.
So wait, so Yours is a decay
And his is a condiment
Yeah real mature mate
Why don't you go
And eat some more Play-Doh
I will
Has anyone got some
You can get some for tomorrow
Yeah that'll be good
Not the glitter one
No you'll get what you're given
You'll get what you're given
Can you get the spicy one
For her please
Spicy Play-Doh
I ate cat food too
Mexican
Like dry cat food,
dry dog food.
I tasted that.
Oh, yeah.
As a kid.
Yeah, I tasted it
to see what it was like.
What else?
Oh, sand.
Were you on all fours?
No.
No, I tasted sand.
What else?
Oh, this is part of
growing and learning,
for sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Definitely not last year.
I ate cat food last year
or a year before.
Yeah, you did, too. It was not good. Clint, Mr. Cat Food. I didn't eat I ate cat food last year Or a year before Yeah you did too
It was not good
Clint Mr Cat Food
I didn't eat the wet cat food
I wouldn't be that weird
It was very wet the one I got too
I've always wondered after eating that
Would it have been better warm?
Does it just taste like tuna?
I don't know
Because it's such a psychological block
You know when your mind is like
Don't eat this
Don't eat this
Don't eat this
But then you're a brave tough man And you overpower your own psyche i'm gonna eat it then your body's like
no you're not brave what amount of money would it take for you guys to eat like you know the small
the tin tuna ones the the pet food one that clint would have had like a cat food mine wasn't tuna
mine was um salmon pate okay if yours was if i gave you a salmon pate no If I gave you a salmon pate The one that he had
And you had to eat it
Even licking it clean
How much money would it take?
How much money would you do it for?
Ten grand
Less
Five
Two
Really?
A whole tined pretty gross
two shit yeah i'd do it for two because you oh don't lie anastasia you know i just that is
genuinely like the grossest like would you not i was thinking about it before and i was like if it
was like a single we're talking about a single serve can of cat food right ross was going to be
an automatic
no because I
already hate like
seafood and tin
tuna in the first
place
okay you can have
jelly meat
so it's like
10 times worse
you can have
jelly meat
oh is that like
meat
oh jelly meat
no
it's the seafood
bit that gets her
oh no I'd rather
the seafood I think
I reckon Ben's
number's lower
first of all I think
Anastasia's number
is 50 bucks
but Ben
yes it is.
After five tins of pals, I reckon it's $50.
Ben, what's your number?
I'd probably do it for a grand.
Yeah, I thought so.
And I think that's fair.
I'd definitely rather that than like a dog biscuit or something.
I'm not doing it for less than a grand.
A dog biscuit?
I'm just saying.
I'd eat a dog biscuit.
Would you?
Nothing wrong with a dog biscuit.
Oh mate, I'd do a dog biscuit for a hundy.
Me too.
I'd do that for a hundred bucks.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They smell funny.
Yeah, they smell funny, but at least they're dry.
Yeah, it's dry.
I think they'll be worse.
You can get that down.
Really?
Yeah, I know, yeah.
With some milk.
Really?
You think a dog biscuit?
No.
Actually, because it's dry, you could taste it, like, flavour it up.
No, no, no, no.
We're not, no, we're not, we're no, no, no. We're not modifying them.
As is, we're not putting like...
If we're modifying them, I'm going to bake my cat food tuna into a pasta.
That's not a bad idea.
A tuna pasta bake.
Yeah.
Yeah, delish.
Pasta bake.
Tuna pasta bake.
Yeah, right.
Well, good. Now we know everyone's prices. Yeah, thatish. Pasta bake. Tuna pasta bake. Yeah, right. Well, good.
Now we know everyone's prices.
Yeah, that's really good.
When the cat food company comes to us for a promo on ZM,
you've got this piece of audio.
You've got the budget.
I'd pay $1,000 to watch one of the producers eat a can of cat food.
Well, it's Ben.
Ben's the $1,000 man.
$1,000 man.
All right.
But only you get to watch it because you're paying So if we want to pay we've got to buy in
It's like a peep show
Anastasia you want in on this?
Nah I'm okay
I think I'd be sick if I watched that
Yeah but it'd be the kind of sick
I feel sick now
Do you reckon there's like an OnlyFans market for that?
There's a bit to be.
I'm going to make a grand each time.
Yeah, it's called Mumma.
Nah, I couldn't do it for a grand each time. Have you guys seen those people?
Called Yuck Mukbangs.
What is it?
A Yuck Bang.
A Yuck Bang.
Have you seen that stuff?
Is that where they eat gross shit?
No, a Mukbang's where they just eat.
It's like these tiny women and then they eat these giant, like, what's the name, crabs.
Snow crabs.
What are they called?
Sea crabs.
They're huge crabs.
Tiny woman huge crabs sounds like a different website to me.
Eats huge crab.
Turn your cookies off.
Go incognito, mate.
I don't think it's snow crab.
King crab. Oh, okay, all right. King't think it's snow crab King crab
I like snow crab
What's that called a yuck bang
No it's called a muck bang
No a muck bang is when you eat normal food
Are you talking about eating a giant disgusting crab
No that's what it is
Muck bang here we go
I'm pretty sure a yuck bang is something else Clint
Fuck that's a big crab.
Look at it!
That's trick photography.
That's disgusting.
Show me the crab.
Hold it up.
Giant crab or tiny woman?
It's ten pounds.
Oh, yeah, I'd die so quick.
It's a five kilo crab.
Are we talking about that Nila Zissa chick?
It's massive.
She's eating Mr. Crab from SpongeBob.
It's that big.
Is that his name, Mr. Krabs?
Yeah, I think so.
From the patty place.
The patty place?
Krabby Patty.
Krabby Patty.
The Krabby Patty.
Was Spongebob and Patrick boyfriends?
That's the theory.
Were they boyfriends?
I think so.
I think Spongebob's a gay icon.
He definitely is a gay icon.
I don't know if Patrick was gay, though.
Does Patrick know?
Oh, yeah.
Does Patrick know what?
Whether he's gay or not.
I don't know.
Patrick's been quite a brilliance most of the time.
We're wrapping this up, by the way.
I was just trying to find the SpongeBob theme to take us home.
Do you need me to sound effects this up

Treat every day like it's your last.
Well, actually, speaking of, it is a massive day for the nurses of this country

As we speak.
Yeah, and yeah, so long time coming.
They are on strike at the moment.
We will talk about that more in the show later.
We're going to try and talk to some nurses on the show this afternoon.
We want to talk to some of the nurses that listen to our show
and get their take on it, how they're feeling.
We're going to get Jacinda on and try and broker a deal.
Imagine if that happens.
Nurses, give us your most convincing person to call the show
and we'll get Jacinda and we'll try and break her a deal
We'll nut this thing out, get it sorted on here this afternoon
But yeah, I'm thinking of you guys
All the nurses that are striking at the moment
Because it's not easy
And yeah, it's pretty full on for those guys at the moment
Totally, tough job as well

our lady tradie today, who's calling in from the mouth.
That's right, grey mouth, and she loves baking.
Welcome to the show, Ashley.
Lovely, Ashley.
What's your best baked dish?
Anything, really.

Thanks to KFC.
Good luck.
Here we go.
Question number one.
A single car park in Hong Kong has just sold for $1.8 million.
That's enough to buy a one-bedroom apartment on the outskirts of Auckland.
Is the current median house price in New Zealand's biggest city $1 million,, $1.1 million or $3.1 million?
Trade Lady.
Yes, Ashley, you're in first.
$1.1 million.
That is correct.
And devastating.
Insane.

Question number three.

It would be the New South Wales and Queensland.
Yeah, you're giving us both.

but we'll take it, Ash.

Congratulations.
You're the winner of Tradiverse Lady.
Nice work.
There's nothing I love more than putting on a good film
and watching, settling in for the night.
I've watched so many movies.
Everyone always rolls their eyes and sighs
when they have to pick a movie that I haven't seen.
Yeah, you would be the worst person to watch a movie with
unless you're okay with repeat watching.
I'm okay with repeat watching.
Oh, that's okay then.
Not every film, but some.
It's hard as someone who's seen no movies
sitting down with my wife in particular
who's seen a lot of movies
and everything I'm keen to watch,
she goes, seen it.
That's me.
Yeah, I'm that person.
Yeah, you're that person. Yeah, well, you know, get on our level. I'm trying to watch, she goes, seen it. That's me. Yeah. I'm that person. Yeah, you're that person.
Yeah, well, you know, get on our level.
I'm trying to.
Watch a few more movies.
I'm trying to, but you guys won't let me watch anything.
Well, you know, you've got to make time at some point.
You've obviously slacked off in your life.
I need to do some solo watching.
You've really slacked off.
I need to go on some flights.
That's the problem.
Yeah, that is the, yeah, you can go on some flights.
That's where you've got, the only place you've got left to watch them.
It is rare for me, though,
to put on a film and
not sit through the whole thing, even
if I'm like, this is not the
best. Really? You'll suffer through a crap movie
even if you think it's crap? Yeah, because I want to watch it. I give everything
a chance and I feel like watching
the whole thing is a good chance. There's a difference
between giving it a chance and finishing
it, though. See, this is why you've seen no films.
I feel like you know if a movie's any good
within the first half hour.
Yeah, probably.
But last night...
Not all movies deserve your attention.
Yeah.
You know?
Last night I had a moment, pretty rare for me,
where I could not sit through this film.
I put it on.
I thought, you know what?
Despite the reviews,
despite the stuff people have written about this
movie, I'm going to give it a chance. And I wish I didn't.
The movie that I turned off, I reckon it was 20 minutes in,
was Cats.
The Andrew Lloyd Webber, Taylor Swift, James Corden, Jason Derulo cats.
I haven't seen it, but I've heard nothing but bad things.
What is it about it that is so bad about cats?
You know, I was already asking for trouble
because I'm not the biggest fan of musical movies.
Oh, yeah.
I don't like musical movies.
I like going to a musical, a stage show,
but I'm not the biggest fan of a musical movie.
Didn't love Mamma Mia?
Nah.
Nah.
I mean, Mary Poppins, keen.
What about Moulin Rouge?
Nah.
Nah.
Nah. Nah. Nah.
Right.
But I think it was just the pure, like, it just had no storyline.
You didn't know what was happening.
It was like whoever made the movie, took a bunch of acid,
and then wrote this movie and goes, that's really good.
I'm going to make that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm going to make that film.
It's rated a dismal
wait, I took down the ratings
on Rotten Tomatoes, it rated
a dismal 19%.
19%? 28% of
Google users said they liked the movie
and here's a few reviews
online. I cannot with this movie.
I hated it so much that I
cried at the end and I'm not joking.
I seriously did.
I would have thought that diehard Taylor Swift fans would be enough
to at least get it up to a 40% rating.
You know, I thought they'd go in and bomb the rating.
And all the cats watching, going to the movies.
And all the cats.
You know, that's a big market.
On their meow pad, giving it a rating, yeah.
Nah, couldn't do it.
Right.
Well, good on you.
I'm glad you're finally taking a stand and walking out of movies.
It's liberating.
It's invigorating
I remember the time
That I walked straight out
Of Adam Sandler's film
Don't mess with the Zohan
Go back to your
God damn pretzel stand
We got it
Look what I've got
Please
It's right here
I've got it
Please let me go
Never work a pretzel stand
You like to insult me
I don't understand it
I don't know why he made it
I just I just
I just like
There's no need
There's no need for this film
It's not his best
But I
You watched all
Don't mess with the Zohan
I sat through it
Yeah
I did
I didn't
You know
I wasn't proud of myself for it
I wanted to ask people
This afternoon
On 0800 dial ZM
What's the movie
You had to turn off
Yeah
You couldn't sit through
The whole thing
What was it
for you what movie you said nah I'm not wasting another minute of my life on this when did you
vote with your feet or your remote and just bail out oh 800 dials at m or you can text us on 9696
what's the movie you couldn't sit through till the end talking Talking about movies that you couldn't sit through,
you couldn't get to the end of it, you had to turn it off
because for me it rarely happens.
I always give the movie the benefit of the doubt.
I'm more likely to stay to the end if I've paid for the tickets.
Absolutely.
If you paid to go to the cinema, you're like, well, I'm here now.
I don't think I've ever walked out of a cinema.
No.
It has to be pretty bad.
But you can turn it off if it's on Netflix or Neon or something, right?
It's pretty easy.
And you're like, come on, man.
Yeah.
This costs me nothing except time.
I might as well get out while I can.
Unless you've rented it, then I usually sit through and bear it.
Rented it?
Oh, like, oh, right.
Yeah, like on some of the services.
I was like, what's your local video store?
Not from the store.
We're asking you.
Are you getting the video easy movie guarantee?
Get it first time or get it free?
Why was it every time you went to the video store
You always really had to pee all of a sudden?
I don't know
Every time I went
I automatically needed to go to the toilet
Yeah
I don't know
But movie video store popcorn
Tastes better than supermarket popcorn
I don't know why
But the popcorn for some reason tastes better
Interesting
Psychological thing.
What's the movies
you guys couldn't sit through?
Gemma's caught up.
Kia ora, Gemma.
Hi, Gem.
Hi.
What was it, Gem?
I can't stand gravity.
Oh.
Oh, she doesn't spin around
for two hours.
She's in a space.
Hang on, hang on.
We've got a bit of gravity
here for you.
Astronaut is off structure.
What do I do?
Astronaut is off structure.
What do I do? Don't is off structure What do I do?
Astronaut is intact
Yeah, I can hear it there
That signature Sandra Bullock spinning around
Yeah, that's fair enough
I think
Listen to Gemma
I was actually at the movies
And hubby wouldn't leave
He loved it
So I just rolled over and had a wee nap
Fair enough
Sandra Bullock and George Clooney
Weren't enough to keep you interested
No No, she just rolled around and round and round Alright Fair enough. Sandra Bullock and George Clooney weren't enough to keep you interested.
No.
No, she just rolled around and round and round.
All right.
I kind of have to agree with you, Jim.
Let's talk to Grace.
Hi, Grace.
Hi, Grace.
Hi.
What was the movie, Grace?
You couldn't sit through it.
It was Sweeney Todd.
The whole concept of killing people and putting them in supplies and then making it a musical about it.
Oh, don't give the whole plot line away, Grace.
Now I'm not going to go watch it, Grace.
Here's a little bit of Sweeney Todd for you to reminisce.
15 years dreaming.
Benjamin Parker.
No Parker.
Yeah, the creepy combination.
We're going to cut people up and we're going to put them in a pie.
Put them in a pie. Put them in a pie.
Put them in a pie.
Yeah, not really a musical theme, isn't it?
So you don't know how Sweeney Todd finished, Grace?
Well, yeah, see, I watched it.
Because, I mean, when you're committed to watching something that walks,
I guess you kind of got to see it out to the end.
Wait, you did finish it.
Yeah, but it was...
It was a punish.
Begrudgingly.
If you had a chance to do your time over, you wouldn't, is what she's saying.
Yeah, fair enough.
Joel's here.
Hey, Joel.
Hi, Joel.
Hey, how are you guys?
Good, thanks.
What's the movie you couldn't sit through, Joel?
Benjamin Button was most boring turd with red hair on it.
Are you talking to us on a can, on a piece of string?
You sound like you're on another planet.
Where are you, Joel?
You're on hands-free, hang on.
Take us off.
Is that better?
Like, Joel, like 45 times better.
Joel, did you make the hands-free yourself?
Hey, you know, when you're in, you know, money's hard to come by.
Fair enough, Joel.
Fair enough, fair enough.
We didn't hear you clearly.
What's the movie you couldn't sit through?
Benjamin Button was the most boring, turd, covered in burnt hair that I've ever had to see.
Joel!
My name is Benjamin Button, and I was born under unusual circumstances.
Benjamin Button was a great movie.
I quite liked Benjamin Button.
No.
He was born as an old man and he
died as a baby. I will agree with you, Joel.
It did go for a long time.
And, well, we don't know how long it
went because me and my mate, so
his sister recommended it to us
so we went to the movies and we actually just
looked at each other like halfway through and we're like
leaving? Yep. It was a
short movie for Joel because he only stayed for 15
minutes. Not very long.
You know, when I went to see that film,
I strategically booked myself gold class because, I mean... Because you knew it was long?
Because I knew it was long so I could recline back.
Get your money's worth.
There's a life hack for you.
Kayla, take us home.
What's the movie you couldn't sit through?
I don't know if I should say
because I know we're supposed to be real proud because we're Kiwis,
but I can't stand Lord of the Rings.
What?
I just don't get it.
Kayla, we have an entire economy built on that film.
The only thing that is going to bring us back from the brink of COVID destruction is Lord of the Rings tourism, Kayla.
She's not saying that she doesn't, you know,
love everything that's come with it,
but she doesn't get the whole hype around the film.
What's not to like about four three-and-a-half-hour movies
about a small man walking to a mountain?
Well, a couple of things.
Like, by the time you watch the whole movie,
you pay quadruple prices for snacks.
It's true.
Because you've had to wait that long.
And I just don't get, like, the little
Dobby or whatever his name is.
Like, what is he? Frodo! His name's
Frodo. No. Well, Frodo.
Oh, is Dobby in Harry Potter? Dobby's
Harry Potter. I mean, see, I don't even know.
You're talking about
the guy that's like, my precious.
No, that's Smeagol. Oh. That's
Gollum. That's in Lord of the Rings. Yeah, that's Smeagol. That's Gollum.
That's in Lord of the Rings.
Yeah, that is.
Not Dobby.
Dobby and Smeagol look the same.
Yeah, I'll give you that.
Kayla, all right.
Kayla, savage.
I love it.
You know what I hate?
One of the most iconic things about this country.
Don't get me started on Flight of the Conchords. I mean, they're very long movies, though, aren't they? Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio.
This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Dean, there's been a petition that started about something
that fans of The Lord of the Rings don't want to be in the new TV show.
Right, so we're very excited.
There is a new series coming to Amazon Prime, of course.
Very, very cool. The petition says this. coming to Amazon, a prime, of course. Very, very cool.
The petition says this.
They do not want any...
I love that.
They do not want any nudity in the Amazon series.
And this is the reason why,
on the grounds that it goes against Tolkien's Catholic belief.
Now, if you are a fan of the movies,
you may agree with this,
but whatever it is,
they do not want any nudity in the Amazon
actual series. Weird protest to have.
Isn't it? Like... Well, how much
nudity was in the movies?
None. Right, so why
would they even... Well, because they spiced it up.
That's what these series do,
you know? Gotta keep it sexy. Didn't they? They had a few
boobies in Game of Thrones to
keep you interested, you know?
A little bit of sight. Don't pretend like you
watch any other parts
of Game of Thrones
I'm sure we've got
a little bit of
Jon Snow's side D going on.
Yeah, I'd love to see
what Frodo looks like
under the...
Well, that's the thing.
If there is nudity,
what Lord of the Rings
characters do we want
to see in the buff?
Smeagol.
You want to see Smeagol's bits?
He's basically naked anyway.
He's just wearing a loincloth.
I reckon he'd look like
Mr Burns in the nude.
Do you want to see what Gandalf's
packing?
I get confused between Harry Potter and
Lord of the Rings. He's the Lord of the Rings
version of... What about Hermione?
Hermione's... Is she in Lord of the Rings?
No, that's Harry Potter.
And no nude
Hermione either. No.
What's...
Dean, who do you want to see naked in Lord of the Rings?
Who's a bit of you?
You'd be a legalist, man, wouldn't you?
All of them.
All of them.
All of them.
Dean, did you ever...
That would get the rating.
Did you ever think about auditioning for Lord of the Rings?
I think I got offered a role in Lord of the Rings.
It was a different kind of film.
I can't remember how that played out.
You'd be the buff elf.
Dean went,
you can absolutely pass.
He is on Dean.
He's a buff looking elf to me.
That's the latest
about Lord of the Rings fans
not wanting nudity
in their Amazon series.
Will they get their way?
Time will tell.
That's the latest
thanks to Disney's Cruella.
It's in cinemas now.
It's on Disney Plus as well
with Premier Access.
Conditions apply.
Bree and Clint.
Exciting news for Australia.
Beer's gone down, has it?
The what's gone down?
The price of beer.
The price of beer.
No, isn't it?
It was already basically free over there, isn't it?
No.
Paleontologists have uncovered the largest dinosaur ever found in Australia.
It's in Australian record.
It's a long-necked dinosaur, you know, like the...
Oh, my God, please tell me it's a giant kangaroo.
No, it's not a giant kangaroo.
It's like, you know, the brontosaurus or the brachiosaurus
or the apatosaurus or the diplodocus.
A long-necked dinosaur.
A long-necked one.
It's a long-necked one.
This dinosaur grew up to 30 metres long
and six metres high at the hip,
making it as long as a basketball court
and two storeys high.
Yeah, big dinosaur.
That's a big dinosaur.
And what?
They've only just found it.
Yeah, they just dug it up.
Where?
They're still discovering new dinosaurs.
Where'd they dig it up?
In the ground.
No, but where in Australia?
Oh, I don't know.
The name of the dinosaur?
It's called the Australotian Cooperensis.
Why can't they just give dinosaurs real simple names?
Why do they give them dumb, unmemorable names?
Like in the movie The Land Before Time, which is about dinosaurs.
Yes.
Pretty basic dinosaur names in that movie.
Like?
Littlefoot.
Good.
Bigfoot.
Yeah.
Call this one Longneck.
Yeah.
You know?
I thought seeing as it's an Australian dinosaur by birth,
it identifies as Australian.
It's got an Australian passport.
It needs an Australian name name so I've got some
Australian name ideas to throw
at you Brie. What have you got?
What if we call it, crikey what a
bigginosaurus
Doesn't flow
No, okay, workshopping these
What about Struth, he's huge
asaurus
Yeah, not bad. That's not bad
What if we name it after some iconic Australians, you know,
like a tribute.
You could call it the Veronicasaurus.
Yeah.
Veronicasaurus.
The Veronicasaurus.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's good.
Guy Sebasticus.
Yeah, that's good, eh?
I think I'll pass on that one.
Kylie Minogapod.
Minogapod?
Yeah, Kylie Minogapod.
Minogasaur.
She was on Neighbours.
Yeah, I know who Kylie Minogue is.
And then she did some songs.
Timo Maticus.
Hey, it works.
Justice Crew Rex.
What about Steve Irwin?
Surely he gets a mention.
Oh, that would make sense, eh?
No, I didn't put Steve Irwin down.
The last one I had was Alstuoraptor.
Yeah, that's good.
That's good, eh?
But it's not a raptor, though.
Nah.
That's all right.
Back to the drawing board.
We can workshop that.
Yeah, Kylie Minoga pod it is.
Kylie Minoga Pod.
That's the latest on Australian dinosaurs.
Bree and Clint.
It's becoming increasingly tense here in the studio
as the two biggest Lord fans in our team
begin a war amongst themselves
as to who is the bigger Lord fan.
Well, I call myself a Lord fan.
Producer Anastasia calls herself a peer to Lord.
No, I don't.
A contemporary.
Don't say that.
I do not.
You always use her first and last name
when you're referencing her.
On the brink of brand new Lord music,
the first Lord music since 2017,
I thought it's time to settle this once and for all.
Who is the show's biggest Lorde fan?
We may have oversold myself here.
Well, we invited New Zealand to be a part of this contest.
I think you two are so intimidating that no one wanted to go up against you guys.
So if one of you wins, you get it.
You get the title of New Zealand's greatest Lorde fan.
What I have is a list of Lord questions,
and you will get your own questions, okay?
There's no buzzing in over each other.
Okay.
Five questions each, and at the end of this,
Five questions each?
we'll know who New Zealand's Greatest Lord Fan is.
Gee, this is serious.
Feel free to play along and text us your score.
Let's begin with Brie.
Oh, no.
Brie.
Yes.
What is Lord's full real name? Let's begin with Brie. Oh, no. Brie. Yes.

I can... I'm going to give Brie that.
What?
Let me live that fantasy.
What about middle names?
Why would that not be it?
What do you mean middle names?
Oh, sorry.
A real fan would know middle names. Go on, drop your middle names on Why would that not be it? What do you mean middle names? Oh, sorry. A real fan would know middle names.
Go on, drop your middle names on us.
Maria Lani?
Okay, I didn't need those for the questions.
The point goes to Bree.
Well done, Bree.
Thank you.
Good job.
Anastasia, your first question.
What was the name of Lorde's debut EP?
The Love Club EP.
Let me live that fantasy.
Easy.
Easy.
She got an easy one.
Did she?
That's a pretty easy question.
Do you want the artist?
No, sorry.
I'm kidding.
You show off.
Brie.
Yes.
What was the name of Lorde's second album?
Pure Heroine.
Can I?
No. She's such a damn liar. Pure heroin Can I? No
She's such a damn liar
Lorde's second album was called Melodrama
Oh, of course
Okay, Anastasia, you can take the lead with a correct answer here
Anastasia, who did Lorde partner with to create the song Magnets?
Disclosure.
You sure?
Yes, I'm sure.
Disclosure was correct.
Let me live that fantasy.
She's taking the lead on you here, Bree.
I know.
I told you.
I told you, man.
Okay, Bree, how many Grammy Awards has Lorde won?
Oh.
This question is multi-choice.
Is it three, five or seven?
She's great.
Let's go seven.
Lorde's won five Grammys.
I was going to go five.
Seven.
Who do you think she is?
Well, Adele's won seven.
She's only got two albums.
Anastasia to take quite a commanding lead in this competition now.
What Auckland suburb did Lorde live in when she wrote the lyrics,
I'm not proud of my address?
Devonport.
Damn, she's good.
Let me live that fantasy.
Sorry, I went to school together.
How am I meant to compete with this?
You know how everyone would...
Brie, name this Lord song.
But it's just the supercar device.
Supercar.
Supercar.
This.
Let me live that fantasy.
Thank God I got that one.
Anastasia,
name this Lorde song.
I'm sitting in hell with you
but we're the greatest.
The loof.
Let me live that fantasy.
I think she's unbeatable.
Yeah.
What can I do here?
Let's go one question,
winner takes all.
One question,
Are we buzzing in?
Bree, name the Lord song that Lord announced yesterday. Sun... Sun...
Solar...
Solar...
Solar Power.
Let me live that fantasy.
I was about to call the game off.
Because you kept calling it Sunstroke,
and I was like, that's a terrible name for a song.
You actually can't come back from this,
but just for fun to see if she's getting five from five.
Anastasia.
Joel Little worked with Lorde
to produce the song Royals.
Name one other famous artist Joel Little has worked with.
Ellie Goulding.
Let me live that fantasy.
Well, what?
I don't know, mate.
It's not technically a Lorde question.
It's technically not a Lorde question.
It is a Joel Little question.
Even I can answer that one.
Well, you lost, okay?
You lost quite badly.
Anastasia with 100% record.
Congratulations.
You are New Zealand's biggest Lord fan.
Victory speech.
Dear Ella.
Oh, no.
Lord.
I love you.
Thank you for all the great music over the years.
You need to be humble.
Yeah, I know.
I'm not going to be humble.
Like Lord.
Lord's humble.
She would be humble.
Brie really should have won.
Yeah, that's much better. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Br be humble. Like Lorde. Lorde's humble. She would be humble. Brie really should have won. Yeah, that's much better.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Brie and Clint.
Picture this.
You meet your perfect partner.
You're equal.
You decide to get married.
You have this amazing day.
Everything goes off without a hitch.
All your friends and family are there.
And then you wake up the next day and someone messages you and says,
your husband has been messaging me inappropriately.
Oh, buzzkill.
The day after your wedding.
The day after.
Yeah.
That's exactly what happened to this woman.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
She found out that the messaging had been happening the day after?
Yes.
Or he was messaging someone the day after?
Oh, yuck.
Both happened.
Oh.
Yes.
A woman by the name of Christiane found out, yeah,
her new husband had been messaging a random woman over Facebook.
Anyway, the woman that he'd been messaging contacted her and said,
hey, you don't know me.
I don't know you.
I'm pretty sure your husband has been messaging me.
Here's the screenshots of it.
He has you in his profile picture, a picture of your wedding.
Wow.
You'd hope that even if you had inadvertently married a cheater,
that the afterglow of the whole wedding thing would be enough to make them go,
you know what, no cheating for me.
For a while.
For a little bit.
No.
Day after.
You'd think if they were going through,
even if they were a cheater and they're going through with the wedding,
they'd go, no, it's time to change my ways.
I'm married now.
I need to pull my socks up here.
Yeah.
And get off Tinder.
Why are you getting married?
It's this thing we always talk about with cheaters.
It's like do all the messaging you want.
Just don't be in a relationship.
Because they still believe in themselves.
What do they believe?
That they won't cheat again.
Oh.
Or they don't think it's a big deal.
Oh.
Maybe.
Right.
Well, that's wrong.
Yeah.
Look.
Bad time to find out that someone's cheating.
You've just married them.
And then what does that mean?
You can...
In some countries you can get an annulment.
Annulment.
But I don't think that's the case in New Zealand.
You can do that in America.
I don't think we have annulment laws.
I think you do.
Do we?
I think so.
Is it like a 30-day try before you buy type thing?
Cooling off period, yeah.
Is there?
Maybe.
I'm pretty sure.
Jeez.
Wow.
Okay, well, that's handy.
Wasn't it the first season of Married at First Sight New Zealand
they actually got married?
Yeah.
I wonder if any of them got annulled.
Terrible idea.
Yeah, bad idea.
Terrible idea.
Terrible idea when you are the producers of that show
and you know you're not setting up real marriages.
How evil when you're going,
this is so crack up.
They're going to hate each other
and we're going to legally fuse them to each other.
It's going to take two years for them to get a divorce.
This is so crack up.
All men are so crack up.
Not ideal.
Is that the worst time to find out
someone's been cheating on you?
Nah.
The day after the wedding?
You've just found out you're pregnant.
Isn't great.
Oh, yeah.
That's not good.
Yeah.
What about Khloe Kardashian?
She found out like a week before she was meant to give birth.
That's right.
Yeah.
Just before.
Not a good time.
Yeah.
Finding out in the delivery suite.
Funeral.
At a funeral.
Yeah.
Yeah.
About to be two funerals.
Oh, your birthday would suck.
Valentine's Day.
New Year's.
I mean, I could go on and on.
Christmas.
I don't think Christmas is worse than the day after your wedding.
Like, it's a bad Christmas.
But at least next Christmas will be better.
Day after your wedding trumps Christmas. But
finding out on Christmas is pretty bad.
Yeah. Surprise.
I know it's not what you asked for, but
I bet you're surprised. You know why it's
so bad? Because then...
Because that's Jesus' birthday. Instead
of Christmas being, you know, this amazing fun day that you get to spend with loved ones and family, you'll always remember that's Jesus' birthday. Instead of Christmas being this amazing fun
day that you get to spend with loved ones and family
you'll always remember that's the day
that such and such cheated on you.
Yeah, stink buzz.
Let's take some calls on it. Let's find out the
worst time you found out you
had been cheated on.
What was the worst time
you found out that someone was
cheating on you? Maybe it was supposed to be a happy time and you got the stink news.
Or maybe you were already really sad and you're like,
oh, thanks, man, this is icing on my total shit cake.
At the engagement party, you found them in the toilets with someone else.
Bad time.
You can text us on 9696 or give us a call 0800 DIAL ZM.
What was the worst time you found out they were cheating?
Bree and Clint.
Did you find out at the worst possible time that they were cheating on you?
A woman has spoken out about how she found out that her husband
had been messaging other women the day after their wedding.
Yeah, that sucks.
Day too late.
There's no good time to find out someone's cheating on you, right?
No, there's not. But there's definitely worse times. Absolutely. There's no good time To find out someone's Cheating on you right No there's not
But there's definitely
Worse times
Absolutely
There's way worse times
Than others
Like you just
You'd wish you found out
The morning of the wedding
No
Yes
That's just as bad
No
Because then you wouldn't
Have to go through
With the wedding
No but everyone's
Already coming
I know
But you've found out
The day after
The day before
Yeah
Oh I'd still rather
Find out the morning of Than the day after, I reckon.
Just to give you some time.
Yeah, but then you have to go through all of the embarrassment.
Yeah, well, you're going to have to go through it anyway.
So unless you keep it a secret and decide to work on it,
which is never a good idea.
We're asking you this afternoon on 0800DIALZM,
did you find out they were cheating at the worst possible time?
Dominique has caught up. Kia ora Dominique.
Hi Dom. Hi you guys.
How are you? Good thanks mate. What happened?
Tell us. Yeah
so me and the hubby hadn't
been getting along for a little while and
yeah on the morning of
my 39th birthday he decided
to ask me for a divorce.
On your birthday? That's a dog move. On my birthday mate. Did he decided to ask me for a divorce. Oh, on your birthday?
That's a dog move.
On the birthday, mate.
Did you have a birthday party organised?
Well, no, we'd actually just got back from France, so no.
So that was, you know, even more fun.
Because it could almost be a good thing if you had people coming around, right?
Because then you could have like a commiseration party and like burn his clothes
and, you know, have like a sacrificial ceremony where you
get rid of him and get real drunk.
Yeah, I probably should have thought of that at the time, but I definitely got real drunk.
Dom, did you say to him when he broke up with you on your birthday, were you like,
it's my bloody birthday.
You could have waited a day.
Well, I've got to say, I did call him an insensitive.
See you next Tuesday.
See you next Tuesday.
Love it, Dominique.
That's good.
This person wants to remain anonymous.
Hello, anonymous.
Hi, anonymous.
Hello.
What was the worst possible timing you found out they were cheating?
The day after we signed the mortgage together.
Oh, that's horrible timing.
How did you find out?
Side piece messaged me actually a couple of months later and told me.
And did the sidepiece do it in a way where they were like,
I didn't know about you, I'm just letting you know?
Or was it like...
Yeah, no, they didn't know about me.
So apparently the ex said that his wedding ring was nothing
and it was just a ring.
And then she found out about me.
What a horrible lie.
He kept his ring on while he was cheating on you.
Wow, that takes some stuff.
That is lazy.
And you know what I love?
I love this community thing that's happening
where the people who obviously the other woman
or the other person end up finding out
and then they message the person?
Yeah.
I like that.
Who got to keep the house anonymous?
Well, I actually owned the house before we met,
so he actually signed on to my mortgage.
Ah.
That's even worse anonymous.
I actually kept it.
Yeah, you kept it.
And you can take money from him in the meantime,
and you can say, but you're not sleeping here.
Could have worked out okay.
Thanks, Anonymous.
James is here.
Hi, James.
Hi, James.
Hi, how are we doing?
Good, thanks.
When did you find out they were cheating?
It was a really bad time.
Well, they weren't me.
It was one of my mates, one of my mates' wedding,
and his best man slept with the wife on the wedding day.
On the wedding day?
On the wedding day.
On the wedding day night, yeah.
After that night, so after they had gone through and got married and everything?
No, no, the same day.
The same day they got married.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That same day, yeah.
How did they have the time?
A wedding day is pretty packed, normally.
You're telling me. You're pretty packed. Yonkley.
You're telling me.
You're telling me.
It was very sneaky.
Did they do it in between photos and speeches?
That's, you know, when they disappear for a bit.
Wow.
What a dog move.
Your best mate and your wife.
Wow.
When did it all come out?
When did everybody find out?
Well, the mother-in-law went to find, you know,
the bride and walked into the room and
barely were on the bed
to find their uncle's office.
That sounds like a movie or a TV show.
Busted by the mother-in-law.
That's unreal. Yeah, it doesn't get any more awkward than that,
does it? Yeah. Wow.
We all got told to leave the night due
and go. Yeah. It was going to kick off. Well, it did kick off? Yeah. Wow. We all got told to leave the night due and go.
Yeah.
Well, it was going to kick off.
Well, it did kick off.
Yeah.
Everybody got their phones out and filmed it.
Yeah, everybody got their phones out.
Everyone hit the bar quickly, stocked up and got on the buses. We're gathered here today to talk about why you slept with my wife.
Bree and Clint.
All right, crew, it's time for Google Down.
Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down?
What the hell?
I think Google's actually...
We've had it for a long time, but are you the quickest?
Google Down, who is the quickest Googler?
This is where we endeavour to find out.
You take on the three people here in
our team, Clint, producer Anastasia and producer Ben. And Nicole, that will be you this afternoon.
Hello, mate.
Hey, how are you?
Good, thanks. How are you on the Google?
I'm not too bad.
Oh, you're going to need more confidence than that to take down Anastasia. She's a real
punisher when it comes to Google down, honestly.
She said to me on the phone before,
she said, every time I've played, I've never beaten you.
But I told her to have some...
She needs confidence.
She needs a shot of confidence.
You sound like you're going to be good, Nicole.
What are you Googling on, Nicole?
A phone or a laptop?
A phone.
All right, a phone.
That means everyone in here will be Googling on a phone as well.
Have you got any 5G access, Nicole?
Have you got a competitive advantage over there?
No, just the 4G around here.
We're about to see you, Nicole.
It sounds like you've passed 4G.
We're about to see you.
I crashed it.
Oh, lovely.
Okay.
All right, guys, here's the rules.
I'm going to read out a question I want you to Google.
The first person to yell out the most common answer that comes up on Google
will get a point. If you
yell out the wrong answer, you are out of
that question. You need to wait till the next round.
First person to get three points
wins the game. Are we ready?
Ready. Alright, question number one.
What state was
Taylor Swift born in? Texas.
Good guess, Ben, but he's out.
That's not correct. California.
Good guess, but you're also out.
That is correct.
It is Pennsylvania.
I was too far behind the eight ball.
I had to have a guess.
Same.
I mean, it's worth having a guess.
Yeah.
In that, you know.
All I could think the whole time was Christmas tree, Christmas tree, Christmas tree.
It's one out of 52.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You got a one in 52 chance.
Nicole, are you still there?
Yeah, I'm here.
Good, good, good, good, good.
You got this one.
Come on, Nicole.
Here we go.
Question number two.
How tall is the tallest building in the world?
How tall?
Oh, yeah, that'd be really tall.
Is the tall...
2,717 feet or 828 metres.
That is correct, Ben.
Nice work.
I don't even know how to...
Is it the Burj Khalifa?
Is it the Burj Khalifa in Dubai?
It's the building that Ronda Rousey jumped a car out of
on Fast and the Furious 7.
That is one.
It's 160 stories high.
One to producer Anastasia, one to producer Ben.
Here comes question number three.
How old is Gigi Hadid?
26.
That is correct.
Damn it.
Clint is on the board.
Did you Google it or just know that?
I Googled it.
It came up really fast for some reason.
Nice work.
Nicole, you need to get one here, okay?
Okay.
Question number four.
In kilometres, how far away is Mars from Earth?
In kilometres.
400 million kilometres.
346 million kilometres.
346 million kilometres.
Producer Anastasia got it.
346 million kilometres away.
Producer Anastasia is two on the board.
Clint one.
Producer Ben one.
Come on, Nicole.
Come on, Nicole. You got this.
You're still in it, Nicole.
Ben, do you want to pull our points
and give them both to Nicole
so that she's on two and going up against Anastasia?
So Ben and I forfeit our points to Nicole.
Nicole, you get this, you win.
Okay, Nicole.
We're going to work together to take down Anastasia.
You guys need to Google as well because if you get it right before it,
produce Anastasia.
Oh, it's a triple prong attack.
Three against one.
Okay, Nicole.
Okay, here we go.
How embarrassing if you all lose. Okay, here we go. How embarrassing
if you all lose.
We need to win now.
Question number five.
How many kangaroos
are there in Australia?
10,000.
50 million.
Produce Anastasia's
got it.
Damn.
10,000, Ben.
10,000?
10,000. I would like,000? 10,000.
I would like to give.
I would love to.
You can't give the title.
You can only give the chicken.
Nicole.
It's been an absolute pleasure.
You didn't do much, but you've been a delight, Nicole.
And for that, you get the 50 KFC chicken dollars.
Nice work.
Thank you very much.
Nicole, I think you're the quietest contestant we've ever had, Nicole.
No, but my nine-year-old's sitting next to me.
You're going to lose, Mum.
My favourite thing was just hearing your little laugh in the background.
You'd be like, I was nowhere near that one.
I saw a TikTok the other day, and it was about a girl who lives in New Zealand and she was talking about this opportunity she took
where she lent or gave, rather, a friend of hers money to invest.
Oh, yeah.
Or use as a loan.
Right.
I can't really explain it that great.
I've got the audio of her talking about how much money she lent this person
and how now she can't find him i invested
thirteen thousand dollars into a really good friend of mine um we have an agreement and everything
like that long story short we had a chat about investing and decided that i needed to invest my
money in something because i just had all this money sitting there so rich said look how about
you invest in me and i will use that money to buy something.
So instead of me having to get a loan, I'll use that money.
And instead of the bank getting the interest, you get the interest.
But at the time, being so close to them and never thinking that they'd ever do anything to hurt me, I went along with it.
And he's gone missing.
He literally has gone MIA.
Dropped off the face of the earth.
Gone.
So now my only option is to hire a private investigator and I will find him.
Oh, plot twist. I've got a private investigator. Yeah, she's hired a private investigator because
she's got a legal contract. So it's all written up in the legal contract. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But to sue someone or to send them a notice or whatever-
You have to find them.
You have to have an address to send it to.
The first red flag was when the person said,
why don't you invest?
You've heard of the stock market.
You've heard of Bitcoin.
Why not invest in me?
The meat market.
The me market.
I get it.
I get it.
The person was going to use it as a loan.
I get it.
It's a loan and then he pays her.
Yeah, it makes sense.
But yeah, messy.
It was all written into the contract.
Yeah, right.
And the weirdest part.
They got scammed.
They got fully scammed.
The weirdest part is that I watched a few other TikToks that she's made
and she worked with him and his wife.
Yeah.
So they all worked at the same workplace
and I think they all worked together for like a long time.
Who disappears off the face of the earth for $12,000?
Yeah, I'm going on the run.
For the rest of my life.
I've stolen $12,000.
For the price of an upmarket Mazda Demio, you know?
Like where is he?
Is it worth it?
Yeah, change your name, wear a fake mustache for the rest of your life.
Like that'll cost you $12,000 to do all that stuff anyway.
$12,000 to be a headache.
Yeah.
Yeah, look, and this is the issue with lending money.
It gets really personal when
you lend money to friends and family sometimes because there's all these- It's not a good idea.
Yeah. If they're having a bad week and they can't pay their loan back and you're like,
mate, I gave you my money. You're now brought into their drama and there's nothing you can do about
it. It's just not a good recipe. I want to ask people because I think there'll be quite a lot
of these stories about times that people lent money to someone
and it went bad.
Yep, yep, yep.
Family members, friends.
Partners.
Yeah, oh, partners.
Because it gets messy when you're not married.
When there's a relationship involved.
And say you're new dating and someone asks to borrow money.
Don't be asking your new...
Babe, babe, I really want to take you on a date.
Can I borrow $250?
No.
Not a good idea.
0800 dial ZM.
Did you lend someone money and did it all go bad?
You can also text us on 9696.
Bree and Clint.
You loan some money to someone
and it all turned bad.
Yeah.
It's not usually a good idea.
Well, no, no.
And I have always been told
you shouldn't give what you can't afford
to not get back as well.
That's a good way of thinking about it.
You know?
You should just realise
that at any time or any moment
someone could screw you over.
Your brother's like, yeah, bro.
He's winking.
He's like, yeah, bro, it's a loan.
Thanks for the wink, wink, wink, loan.
We've asked you this afternoon on 0800DIALS.M,
did you lend someone some money and it went bad?
Yeah, phone lines are still open if you want to jump on this one as well.
On 0800DIALS.M, Sarah's called through. Hi, Sarah. Yeah, phone lines are still open if you want to jump on this one as well on 0800 dials at M.
Sarah's called through. Hi, Sarah.
Hi, Sarah. Hi.
What happened, Sarah? Who did you
lend money to?
I gave my now
ex-partner $20,000
so he could follow his dream
of becoming a DJ
in Hamilton.
Sarah.
Wait, what year was this? Because this sounds a DJ in Hamilton. Sarah. Sarah.
Wait, what year was this?
Because this sounds a lot like Clint.
No, it was five years ago now.
Oh, my God, it could be you.
Sarah, as a guy who was DJing five years ago
and a semi-retired DJ myself, don't trust DJs.
Like, this is the least...
No, he wasn't.
He was a wannabe DJ.
I know.
Anyone who has aspirations of becoming a DJ,
it's one of the least trustworthy professions
in the country, I think.
And I say that...
I think I learned that the hard way.
I say that as a former DJ, you know.
What did he want to spend the 20 grand on?
Because as a former DJ,
I know all you need is like a $150 set of Dexoff Trade Me
and a laptop.
What did he want 20 grand for?
He wanted to get some flash Dex speakers, laptop.
I don't know.
I honestly don't know.
But yeah, he disappeared after that.
What was it like dating one of the boys from Saatchi?
At least they got somewhere.
At least they got somewhere.
I was going to say, he's killing it now.
I love Sarah that his aspirations
and what he wanted to achieve with your $20,000
reached as far as Hamilton.
That was his idea of success.
No disrespect to Hamilton,
but see, you started something in Las Vegas, you know?
And he's still trying to be a DJ in Hamilton.
And look at you, Sarah.
You're living your life large now.
You're moving on to bigger and better things.
Did you ever regret it?
Were you ever like, what was I doing?
Oh, 100%.
But hey, you live and you learn.
You live and you learn.
Exactly.
Have you written that 20 grand off
or do you think you'll get it back one day?
I will definitely not get it back.
I think, you know... The guy gets paid in bar tabs.
You're not getting your money back.
Yeah.
You'll get some sweet bar tabs, though.
But if you want a request, if you want a request in Hamilton,
you'll be at the front of the queue.
You'll be in.
Jax is here.
Hi, Jax.
Hi, Jax.
Hi.
Hi, how are you?
Good, thank you.
Jax, who did you lend money to and it went bad?
My ex-brother-in-law.
Very bad.
Yeah.
Oh, what happened?
Well, I gave him 40 grand to invest in his business
and he wouldn't give it back after my sister and him broke up.
So, yeah.
Crazy.
40 grand?
40 grand.
To what?
Sterling.
40,000 sterling.
14,000 sterling.
That is a redonkulous investment. I think it's something like $80,000. Oh,,000 sterling That is a Ridonculous investment
Yeah
I think it's something like
80
80,000 dollars
Oh my god Jax
Yeah
And what
What was his excuse
To not give it back to you
Um
Uh
I don't want to say in the radio
But I
Found him cheating
And I told my sister
Oh so you
That's an excuse
So you
He was in the wrong
He was in the wrong
But you're the bad guy
Yeah cause I was the one That told her Yeah right Oh what a Oh, so you're... That's an excuse. So he was in the wrong, but you're the bad guy.
Yeah, because I was the one that told her.
Yeah, right.
Oh, what a piece of work, Jax. I know, I know.
But I got it back.
I took him to court and got it back.
Oh, good for you.
The only way this could be better,
the business that you invested in,
it wasn't a DJ business, was it?
No, it was not in Hamilton.
It was not in Hamilton either.
Thanks, Jax. Thanks for calling Jax
But you know
Got it back
Got all the money back

Oh, no, Mila doesn't want to talk to us.
Mila's like, oh, my God, the car's talking to me.
This is weird.
Shay, what's your birthday?
15th of January, 1992.
Right, you were 16 in 2008 on the 15th of January.
And in 2008, it brought us this number one hit.
Now you're gone.
I realise my love for you was strong. It's got bass. And in 2008, it brought us this number one hit.
It's got bass.
It's a hunter.
It's Bass Hunter.
Bass Hunter fan, Shay?
Yeah, that's a good one.
That brings back good memories.
Yeah. Bass Hunter.
He's such a weird dude.
Yeah, yeah.
I reckon Mila can get into this one. That's a good one for you guys. Okay, wait there. Let's go to James. Hi, James. Yeah, yeah. I reckon Mila can get into this one.

Any adorable children in the car with you this afternoon, James?
Nah, no children in my car.
Sum up your day in one word, James.
What was that, sorry?
Sum up your day in one word for me.
Long. Long.
Long, okay.
Fair enough.
Say less, James.
It's all good, man.
What's your birthday, James?
22nd of June, 1990.
You were 16 in 2006 on the 22nd of June.
And in 2006, this reached the top of the chart. I went partially deaf after going to a Niles Barkley concert.
One of the loudest shows I've ever been to.
Yeah, you don't strike me as an up-the-front-of-the-mosh pit type of guy.
I was.
I was right next to the speaker.
No, but that's what I mean.
Yeah.
You're the type of person who'll go deaf.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Not experienced enough.
James, do you like Niles Barkley crazy as your birthday banger?
Oh, wish it could have been something better, but all right, I guess.
Do you like Bass Hunter?
Is Bass Hunter a bit better for you?
Yeah, probably a bit better for me, yeah.
I feel like Bass Hunter suits James to a T.
We'll put you down for Bass Hunter.
Let's go to Jamie.
Hey, Jamie.
G'day, Jamie.
Hi, how are you?
Last but not least, sum up your day in one Hey, Jamie. G'day, Jamie. Hi, how are you? Last but not least, sum up your

Yeah.
I loved all the songs from this album.
It was a good album, right?
Very good.
Do you like it, Jamie?
I got stitched up, but that's all right.
A bit stitched up.
Oh, not for the second time today.
What would you pick, Jamie?
Bass Hunter.
Bass Hunter.
Yeah, me too.
I think it's Bass Hunter.
It's Bass Hunter.
100%.
Okay, wait there, Jamie.
That means Shay and Mila, you guys have just won birthday banger.
Congratulations.
Awesome.
Get Mila some of those weird sunglasses and some glow sticks
and get ready because she's about to have her first rave, Shay.
Cool.
Too much sugar.
Thank you.
Here we go, brilliant club birthday banger on ZM.
ZM, Brian and Clint, that's Bass Hunter and Now You're Gone.
People on the text machine are going nuts.
We're a bit of Bass Hunter.
Bass Hunter goes hard, eh?
Bass Hunter.
Let's do it.
I've met him.
Spend a bit of time with Bass Hunter.
He's a unique individual, put it that way.
I bet. Where's he from?
Like, um... Czech Republic or something?
Belgium or...
Somewhere like that.
Ben, can you Google where is Bass Hunter from?
I wonder if he's named after anything.
Sweden, he's Swedish.
Yeah.
Do you reckon his parents named him after someone?
Or do you think his parents named him Bass Hunter?
Yeah.
I don't know if they did.
Maybe his dad was a fisherman.
His first name could be Bass.
Yeah, maybe his dad was a bass fisherman.
He's like, my dad will be known as Bass Hunter.
Bass Hunter.
And then he found DJing
And the dad was like
No
DJing
Found him
That's how it usually works
We don't usually talk about
You know
Serious topics
Or the
You know
We like to keep it light
And fun on the show
Yeah
But sometimes
I feel like we need to use
Our platform To talk about stuff That's going on And that's important Well there's a lot of people We like to keep it light and fun on the show. Yeah. But sometimes I feel like we need to use our platform
to talk about stuff that's going on and that's important.
Well, there's a lot of people who would listen to this show
who today have been out striking, right?
Yeah, exactly.
One of those people is my partner included.
And in our household, this has been going on
and we obviously talk about this quite a lot.
So I'm quite across what's happening in the world,
in the nursing world here in New Zealand.
Yeah.
And this has been coming for a long time.
It's really dire at the moment for these nurses.
Like it's crazy.
I was talking to my partner this morning and it was crazy
because she said to me, you know, this is how bad it is.
For today, when we're all on strike,
so there was all these nurses that went on strike today.
30,000 nurses.
Yeah, and obviously, you know, there's nurses that need to be at work,
you know, to do, like to keep people alive.
You've got a duty of care, yeah.
A duty of care.
So she said there's more people, more nurses rostered on for the strike day.
There's 18 in her unit rostered on.
Normally we have 14 because we're so understaffed.
Right, okay.
But for the strike, because it was the strike,
they organised more people to work during the strike,
which is just weird to me.
Anyway, I was talking to her about it and she said,
you know, there's this really well-written post from
a New Zealand nurse that I feel like you should read out that sums it up, what's going on.
Sure.
And kind of brings you across everything. So this is what this nurse has written.
Every day I'm watching my colleagues and myself burn out under the pressure and stress of the
workloads that are ever increasing with higher number of patients needing our service, patients requiring a higher amount of care and generally more complex
admissions. Last pay negotiations, New Zealand nurses accepted a small increase, smaller than
inflation with the assurance of safe workloads. This week, I haven't had a meal break. I have left late. I have cried walking home.
I have not completed basic tasks for my patients. I've watched multiple patients deteriorate
while we try and keep up with the workload. Every day this week, this has happened.
The more of my colleagues that burn out, the less staff we have on the floor and the issues
continue to circulate tenfold.
I choose to care for people and help people. I choose to use education and science to make
clinical decisions regarding people's lives. I choose a career that is supposed to be fulfilling.
We're a caring, compassionate, female-dominated workforce. That is why we continue to be walked
over. Because we don't speak up, we can't say no every day we're
accepting unsafe staffing because we have no choice if we don't care for the extra patient
that is suddenly put in bed we don't have the resource for move to the lounge or put in the
treatment room who will look after these people they're still someone's family member who require
care and need to be in hospital it's not as as simple as walking away and saying, no, I'm asking, I'm asking those who know me, who knows a nurse to stand up and back us.
Yeah. Wow. And I see my partner, I've seen my partner go through this ever since COVID started.
They've been constantly understaffed, overworked, and you know what's happening. Now nurses,
they, they can't do it anymore. They're leaving their professions.
They're going to Australia because they get paid better.
There's better conditions and there's enough people
so you're not so, so under the pump.
Like it's a mentally challenging job.
It's physically challenging.
It's emotionally taxing.
Why aren't we supporting these people?
And you're not going to attract new people to the profession,
like a new generation of nurses.
And we won't have enough.
If they look at it and they go, well, I could be a nurse
and follow my calling, but I'll never be able to afford a house.
Yeah.
You know?
Enough is enough.
We need to, you know, look after these people.
Yeah.
Like they're so important.
And if the last 18 months and COVID hasn't taught us anything,
it's that these are the people that are at the forefront.
These are the ones we were relying on.
We were like, we're going to war against this virus.
You guys are the front line.
They've looked after us.
Yeah.
So we need to look after them.
Yeah, well put.
If that was you today, kia kaha.
And we support you.
We support you.
Yeah, we stand with you.
And hopefully you get a result out of this.
Absolutely.
Pretty impressive strike.
It'd be interesting.
It'd be weird if something didn't come of this.
Yeah, I hope it does.
Surely.
Bree and Clint.
We are New Zealand's leading show for maritime and aviation news.
No one does more maritime or aviation news than this show.
And to prove it, here's some aviation news.
Okay?
Not maritime, though.
Don't you do that much maritime.
We've done a bit of maritime.
Not as much as aviation, though.
Our eyes are firmly fixed on the skies.
There was that, well, not recently, there was that massive story about the evergreen
this year.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Took up much of the maritime news of the year.
And we were one of the only radio stations that was covering that cargo ship in the Suez
Canal, weren't we?
Look, this is an aviation prank, and I know you're worried.
You think that those two things don't mix.
Don't mix.
I think this one is good.
I think this is a good victimless aviation prank.
Okay, what is it?
Someone who owns a fairly large building,
like a warehouse,
right beside Sydney Airport,
has pulled off,
I'm going to say it again,
the perfect aviation prank.
No one got hurt.
It's not illegal.
And this prank just keeps giving.
Every time a plane takes off or lands, this prank keeps giving.
So they've gone up on the roof of their warehouse
and they've painted in very large letters the words,
Welcome to Perth.
Right next to the Sydney airport.
Yeah, nice.
See?
See, it is a good prank.
But I mean, is it worth it?
Well, they think so.
Like, how long would that have taken them?
Ages?
The man who did it said he's wanted to do it for the longest time,
and he's finally found the chance with the downturn in COVID.
They had time to get up there and paint the roof.
And victimless crime, right?
Apart from snooty Sydney people who are flying in and they're like,
Ew, I hate Perth.
And for a moment there, they think they're in Perth.
You could call them victims.
I mean, you could have done something funny.
Like?
You know, welcome to Perth.
Good.
But you could have taken the opportunity to seize the moment.
Like what?
You know?
Like, I don't know.
Like paint a big penis or something.
A penis or a swear word.
Welcome to penisville. Yeah.
Or maybe, you know, draw a picture of a
hand flipping them the bird.
There's plenty of roof space. These are all
options. You could head out to Mangere and do
that. Draw a big wanger on the roof of
Turner's Car Auctions out
there. Yeah, been there, done that, mate.
Big wanger on a roof. It's got Brie Riddell over it. I don't want to talk about the time I had, you know, big of Turner's Car Auctions out there. Yeah, being there done that, mate. Yeah, right.
Big wanger on a roof.
It's got Brie Riddle over it.
I don't want to talk about the time I had, you know,
big wanger on a roof.
Thank you.
It's your aviation news.
