ZM, Brie and Clint.
With guest host, Maddie McLean.
Oh, g'day guys.
Hi.
Hello, Maddie.
How are ya?
I'm good, mate. How are you going over there?
I'm so good. The sun's shining.
God, how nice is a bit of sunshine?
It's amazing.
I just feel like getting outside, maybe getting some sun on my perennium, you know.
They say it's good for you.
It's so good.
You've just got to be careful how long you do it for.
Yeah.
You don't want to burn down there.
Do you put sunscreen down there?
I think you've got to be sun smart, Bree.
I'm just getting some sunburn on my perennium.
Love that song.
Absolute banger.
Banger.
Absolute banger.
Hey, we've got a $250 supermarket voucher up for grabs before 4 o'clock
with Hack the Lag, thanks to Barocca.
So listen out for that.
We're going to do that just before 4 o'clock.
Also, we have some tickets that we're going to give away
to the new Hunger Games movie, which is exciting.
We'll do that and more, plus $50 cash up for grabs right now, Matty.
Yeah, we're going to play tradie versus lady.
If you are a tradie or a lady, give us a call, 0800-DIAL-ZM,
and we'll put you to the test with our quiz.
The ladies are ahead, but the tradies can claw their way back.
Good win from the tradies yesterday.
Great win.
They came from behind.
The way I like it.
Can they do it again today?
Bree and Clint.
It's time to play
Tradie versus Lady.
It's Tradie
versus Lady.
Three, two, one, let's go.
Come on, here we go.
The Tradies versus the Ladies.
We've been playing all year.
We've been keeping score.
Where are we at, Maddie McLean?
We are 101 points to the Ladies,
94 to the tradies.
Let's meet our tradie first.
He's from South Auckland.
He's 52 and he works for the Warriors.
G'day, Lincoln.
G'day, how are you?
Up the waz, Lincoln.
Up the waz.
Warriors Community Foundation.
Sorry, I should have said Warriors Community Foundation,
which is the charitable arm of the Warriors.
Nice.
Mate, all I heard, Lincoln, was up the wars.
Up the bloody wars.
That's all I've heard all year.
That's all I've heard all year.
I bet.
I bet.
Welcome to the show.
Good to have you here.
You'll be taking on our lady this afternoon.
She's from Christchurch.
She's 50 and she's going to the races on Saturday.
Welcome to the show, Andrea.
Hi, Andrea.
So weak here in Christchurch.
Got your fascinator ready to go?
Oh, no, I haven't got one.
I'm just going to pop a flower in.
Nice.
Nice.
I agree, Andrea.
I agree.
Get rid of the fascinator.
Too much stuff can get caught if it comes flying out, you know?
Yeah, it's a hazard.
It is a hazard. Very flammable, yeah.
I feel like you're speaking from experience.
Okay guys, here's the rules. Andrea, your buzzer is lady. Lincoln, your
buzzer is tradie. Buzz in when you think you know the answer. First to get three correct
answers wins the $50 cash thanks to KFC.
Question number one. Comedian Jerry Seinfeld
is heading down under for a comedy tour
next year. Name the 90s
sitcom he starred in.
Lady. Yes, Andrea.
Wasn't it just called Seinfeld?
It was. It was just
called Seinfeld. Back yourself
Andrea. One to the ladies.
Yay. Question number two.
Kiwi athlete Ryan Fox has
had to play wearing a spring box
jersey after he lost a bet.
What sport does Ryan Fox play?
Yes, Lincoln. Golf.
It is golf.
Nice work. We are one apiece.
Question number three. Another day,
another orca attacking a boat off the
coast of Spain. God, they're going crazy for them,
eh? They are.
What is the other term we use for orcas?
Lady.
Yes, Andrea.
I don't know.
Killer whale.
That's it, baby. It is a killer whale, Andrea.
An orca.
We got a rock whale on the beach here recently.
Did you?
Yeah.
Well, there you go.
Must have been an omen.
Two to the ladies, one to the tradies.
You need this one, Lincoln, to stay in it.
Question number four.
Good news for Taylor Swift fans.
There's another chance to nab tickets to her Aussie show
with a fresh ticket release.
Name this Taylor Swift song.
Our song is a slamming screen door
Sneaking out and tapping on your window When we're on the phone and you talk real slow Taylor Swift song.
Yes, Lincoln.
Your Mama Don't Know.
It was worth a guess, wasn't it, Lincoln?
Andrea, I'll give you a guess.
Oh, that was my guess too.
It's one of her original hits.
It's called Our Song, You Two.
So no points to either of you.
We'll keep playing.
Don't worry about that one.
It was quite a hard one, guys.
Question number five.
Question number five. Which painter famously cut off one of his ears?
Brady.
Yes, Lincoln.
Van Gogh.
That is.
That is.
Nice work.
We are all tied up to a piece here.
Question number six.
What type of animal can detach their tails when they're in danger and then regrow it?
Andrea for the win.
Is it a chameleon?
No, not a chameleon? No, not a chameleon. Lincoln?
I'll go for, I don't know, I'm guessing, really bad guess, a parrot.
No.
It's a lizard.
We're looking for a lizard.
Yes, okay, no points there.
We're still two apiece.
Let's go again with question number seven.
What is James Bond's
preferred drink of choice?
Trady. Lincoln, just in there.
Is it
a
martini on the rocks?
He's got it.
Nice.
Oh,
what a close game, guys.
Very close. You both
played super well, but Lincoln triumphs.
You got the $50 cash thanks to KFC.
Thank you so much.
Up the waz.
Up the waz, Lincoln.
Up the waz.
Up the waz.
Thanks for playing, mate.
Bree and Clint.
I saw this online today, Matty, where Khloe Kardashian,
they love to share their lives, mainly to monetise it and make money.
So be watching the new season of The Kardashians.
There you go.
You've just helped them get a few more thousand dollars.
On Disney+.
But Khloe Kardashian, her daughter, True, is at that age where she's losing her first teeth.
Yeah, right.
Because that's something us as humans do.
We have two sets of teeth. Yeah, more if you play hockey, ice hockey.
Some people have more, you know some people have more than two sets. Really? Yeah.
A friend of mine from back home had
four sets of teeth and then at one point in his life
they all started coming down and they kind of looked like shark's teeth because you know sharks
have multiple layers and he had of looked like shark's teeth because you know, sharks have multiple layers.
And he had to get like something ridiculous, like 40 teeth pulled out or something.
No.
Yeah.
It was crazy.
And then like all these other teeth got messed up because of all these other ones coming
through.
We just did a story on breakfast.
Sorry to sidetrack here.
We just did a story on breakfast about they excavated this old site.
They knocked down an old building in Invercargill.
Yeah.
And it was where a former dentist was.
They found like 300 teeth.
No.
Underneath where the building had been
because the dentists had just chucked the teeth out the back door.
Creepy.
I know.
Oh, my God.
Are the teeth still there?
Teeth are still there.
We should go swipe them.
We'd make a fortune with the tooth fairy.
Yes.
God, we'd cash in.
And that's why I wanted to talk about Chloe posting about her daughter,
True, losing her first tooth.
There's a bit of audio here of True talking about it.
So I was biting chicken.
I bit my tooth.
It was on my tongue.
Oh, your tooth was on your tongue because your tooth fell out when you bit chicken.
Yeah.
So I thought it was chicken.
I said, is that chicken?
And my tooth came out.
My tooth came out.
Now, that's your fairy.
Look, she's not the best storyteller
But essentially what happened
You're like, wrap it up, True
Look, I mean, her storytelling needs work
But she bit on some chicken
Her first tooth came out
And then Chloe's talked about how much
True has got from the tooth fairy
I heard that that was one of her first thoughts
Was tooth fairy, she's coming Yeah, well tooth fairy, how much am I getting? True has got from the Tooth Fairy. I heard that that was one of her first thoughts was Tooth Fairy.
Yeah.
She's coming.
Well, Tooth Fairy, how much am I getting?
So it turns out she actually lost three teeth,
which I didn't know the Tooth Fairy waits to collect multiple teeth these days.
Well, I mean, depends how busy she is.
Absolutely.
But apparently for three teeth, True received quite a decent
amount, $23.
For three teeth? So I've done the math.
It's about $7.66
per tooth.
That was more than I was getting from
the Tooth Fairy. I reckon I was $50.
A dollar? Maybe a dollar? Dollar, $2?
Yeah. Inflation though. Yeah, that's true.
Tooth Fairy does take
that into account. Think about what we pay for $2 mix, $1
50 cent mixtures these days.
Yeah, well it used to be a 50 cent mix, didn't it?
And now it's a, you know,
$25 mix.
What's in it? Hope there's alcohol
for a $25 mix.
I thought we could put it out
to the kids listening right now
and have you lost a tooth recently?
And have you been visited by the Tooth Fairy recently?
Because I'd love to know what the going rate of teeth are.
Yeah, what do you get these days from the Tooth Fairy?
What is the Tooth Fairy giving you for a tooth or maybe multiple teeth?
I don't mind.
We'd love to hear from you.
0800 DIAL ZM if you've lost a tooth recently, kids,
and you've received money from the Tooth Fairy.
We'll talk to you next.
0800 DIAL ZM.
We're talking about Khloe Kardashian because her daughter, True,
has just lost her first tooth or multiple teeth,
and she's been visited by the Tooth Fairy, and she's received,
what did i say
23 for three teeth so it's just over seven dollars per tooth yeah i mean it's it's it's
more than i got it's on the on the higher side but also for the kardashians yeah it's actually
probably pretty low yeah but i mean i have thought about pulling out some teeth recently. Just to get an extra bark?
Yeah, just to see what the tooth fairy's going to be dishing out
with cost of living, you know?
Well, you don't need to do that because we can just ask the kids
what you get these days, right?
True. We can ask the kids, and we're going to do that this afternoon
on 0800DIALZM.
Let's go to Riker first.
G'day, Riker.
Oh, hello.
How old are you, Riker?
Thirteen. Thirteen.
Thirteen.
Have you lost a tooth recently?
Yeah, I lost my tooth about like a month or two ago.
Oh, yeah?
My last one.
Nice.
What's the tooth fairy hooking you up with these days, Riker?
Usually she gives me around $2.
$2, that's fair.
Okay, $2.
Do you think it should be higher or lower?
I reckon $2 is fair enough.
Oh, you're a good kid, Riker.
Nice work, mate.
Well, let's hope the next one's maybe $2.50.
You know, you can always hope.
Let's talk to Adriana.
Hello.
Hi.
How are you?
I'm good, thank you.
How old are you, Adriana?
I'm 10.
10, awesome. And when old are you, Adriana? I'm 10. 10, awesome.
And when did you last lose a tooth?
I lost a tooth three days ago.
Three days?
Three days.
Oh, so you're a freshie.
Yeah, real fresh.
Which tooth was it?
Just next to my two front teeth.
Did it fall out or did you have to yank it?
I pulled it out.
Oh, did you get too impatient, Adriana?
You can't wait.
Needed a few extra dollars.
You can't wait.
What's the Tooth Fairy given you, Adriana, for the tooth?
The Tooth Fairy gave me $3.
$3?
$3.
Okay, so a little bit more.
But fear?
Yeah, that's pretty fair.
That's pretty good, right?
Yeah.
Is that the most you've got?
I think my first tooth was $5.
You've got to get a little bit more for your first.
I think that's, yeah.
And do you save it up or do you spend it all at once?
I save it up.
Yeah, good girl.
Or you could spend it on lollies and lose a few more teeth.
And then, you know, it's a good cycle.
Not good advice. Okay. Thanks, know, it's a good cycle. Not good advice.
Okay.
Thanks, Adriana.
Have a good day.
I love this text that's come through on the text machine.
Someone said, I get $2 per tooth,
even though I wrote a note to the Tooth Fairy asking for more,
but whatever.
I mean, you can always ask.
There's no harm in asking.
Who should we talk to next?
Let's go to Ava Rose.

How much did the tooth fairy give you?
Five dollars.
Five bucks!
Was it a big tooth or something?
Yeah.
I got it out from licking my ice cream.
Did you?
What was it about the ice cream that made it come out, do you reckon?
Usually I thought it would have been like a heart effect.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know.
Maybe it was goody-goody gumdrops.
You know, those hard lollies.
The jubes.
Okay, let's talk to Isla.

Two front teeth, carry the word.
$25 for one, two.
God, were you stoked with that, Sarai?
$25?
Yes.
I bet you were.
What did you spend it on?
I saved some of it and spent the rest on toys.
Oh, good on you, Sarai.

Thanks for calling.
Thank you so much.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
Bye, Sarai.
See you later.
Oh, my God.
So cute.
So bloody clucky.
Me too.
It's time to head to Hollywood for the latest.
From iHeartRadio, this is The Latest.
It's all Met Gala today, Maddie McLean,
because they have released the theme for next year's Met Gala.
And the theme is everything.
Yeah, so it says here that the theme is sleeping beauty's reawakening fashion.
Right.
Yeah, so it'll be presented at the Costume Institute in New York
from May 10 through to September the 2nd.
And they're pulling rare master works from the Institute's archives
for museum goers.
Is this right?
Yeah, this is right.
Buzzy.
So you said to me that it's kind of like shading Kim Kardashian a little bit.
A little bit because you might remember that last year at the Met Gala
she wore one of the original pieces that Marilyn Monroe wore.
Yeah, wasn't it the dress that she wore when she sang
Happy Birthday? I think it could have been that dress. I think it was that dress.
But anyway, Kim got a little bit of flack for it because some of the sequins
popped off and it wasn't in the necessarily
best shape when she returned it
It didn't fit her. No and people
went this is a
you know quite an old piece of clothing
maybe you don't need to wear it
maybe we can just admire it from afar
and so this year's theme is
all about clothing that
is too precious to put on
the body. But then people are too precious to put on the body.
But then people are going to put it on the body.
I mean, the Met Gala is just so OTT, isn't it?
Yeah, it's amazing.
This year's thing was Karl Lagerfeld, hey?
Yeah, correct.
And I saw on an episode of the Kardashians,
Kim was going to go with Karl Lagerfeld's cat.
Oh, my God.
But the cat hated her and she had to pivot and do something else the cat was like not having it uh anyway have
you listened to this clip of what tiktok explaining this year's theme and why it might shade kim a
little bit structured around 50 historically significant pieces unlike kim squeezing into
marilyn's dress these pieces are going to be brought to life using
light, sound, AI and CGI.
They're going to combine that with contemporary pieces
that have an emphasis on sustainability
and the name of the exhibition is
Sleeping Beauty's Reawakening
Fashion. God, they're really
just, I mean, I didn't understand
a word of that.
Let's be real, it's a fashion event,
just put on a frock.
Go have an average meal.
But you know the art world.
They will turn something so basic and make it sound incredibly fancy.
What about when A$AP Rocky wore that over the top?
It looked like Grandma's quilt.
Do you remember this, Producer Claude?
Yes.
And, yeah, so Riri and A$AP Rocky went and he wore this thing and
then someone goes, oh my god,
that's my grandma's
old quilt that I sold online.
Was it actually?
It was actually the quilt that she had handmade
and they'd bought it and he'd
wore it to the Met Gala. Oh my god. Well, I can't
wait to see what people do next year with this thing.
It's going to be great.
Lose Control, Teddy Runs on next year with this theme. It's going to be great. Bree and Clint. Lose control.
Teddy runs on ZM with Bree and Clint.
Maddie McLean filling in.
Makes my nipples go hard.
What?
What does he?
It's so long.
It really gets me.
Bit of Teddy swims for you Thursday.
Sorry, that's too much.
It's going to cut glass over here.
What are you buying on the interwebs, Maddie?
What are you hoping to buy?
You must get these ads from time to time.
And often they are absolute trash and you go, there's no way.
I don't need it.
Doesn't interest me.
Don't want it.
Get off my timeline.
Maddie, as an ADHD person over here, I fall victim to these many times
and I will make purchases off a whim.
Like what?
Oh, mate, the stuff that I've bought.
I've bought practice nunchucks before.
I've bought, you know that thing where you put it over your shoulders
and it like pulls your shoulders back?
I've bought, I mean, there's a million things,
like just gimmicky stuff that comes up in my feed.
Oh, you know what I bought recently?
Yeah.
It's a slushy machine for my house.
You did not.
Yeah, it kept coming up on my TikTok,
and I thought, I'm wasting money if I don't buy that.
Think of the margaritas, the frozen margaritas in summer.
You girl-maffed it.
Yeah, and no regrets.
Have you used it?
Not once.
But it's not summer yet.
Well, I'm a more conservative shopper actually.
It takes a while for me to actually
get sucked into buying things. I'm definitely
someone that'll think
really hard on
purchases before I actually spend the money.
That's a good way to be.
It's called being an adult.
It's maybe the only thing I'm an adult at,
but there is this one thing that I keep seeing on Instagram
that I keep going, I think I want it.
I'm trying to think of what it is
because these things come up all the time.
What has been coming up in your feed? It is paying someone to create a new
signature for you. This is so weird.
I literally on the show a couple of weeks ago talked about how I want
to change my signature and I want to like grow up because my
signature's poo-poos. Mine is trash. Is it? Mine's so bad
too. Trash. Yeah, it looks Is it? Mine's so bad too.
Yeah, it looks like a little kid's scribble.
Well, did you not?
Has this ad ever come up for you?
No, but I'm super interested.
Tell me more.
You can pay someone, like a calligrapher,
to design you a new signature.
And then they can steal your identity because they created the signature.
So they're going to do it perfect. Forge documents for you. the thing i worry about though which i mean cool like i'm very interested but the thing i worry about is that
my penmanship is not great no and i think about a professional you know great they do this amazing
signature and then they kind of they show me how to do it they're like you know the swirls and the twirls here and then i'm not going to be able to do it so what they do is you're
not only paying for the design but they also give you um you know almost like baking uh like baking
paper yes that's how you trace yeah so you can trace so they um give you like a tutorial so that
you can practice you trace it onto the like a tutorial so that you can practice.
You trace it onto the baking paper.
God, they are just creating scam artists, aren't they?
They create a little video so that you can watch and follow along.
Oh, you're already hooked.
How much?
I'm so hooked.
How much?
Well, it depends, Bree.
On what package you would like.
Yes.
Do you want the signature and the initials?
Do you want the signature initial combo?
Not only that, but who do you want to design it?
Do you want a lackey?
Do you want a mid-level calligrapher?
Or do you want the head calligrapher?
This is like when you go to the hairdressers and they say,
do you want the trainee?
Do you want the first-year apprentice, the second-year, third-year? You can go the fourth-year apprentice. You can they say, do you want the trainee? Do you want the first year apprentice, the second year, third year?
You can go the fourth year apprentice.
You can go, and then what's the top one?
It's like hair surgeon.
And I mean, you had to give over one of your legs if you want the hair surgeon.
So I have been thinking about this for a very long time.
I haven't pushed go on at you, but I literally caught up with a friend of mine last week
who recently got married.
And so she's taken her husband's last name.
So she's changing her signature.
I need to change my signature to match my new name.
And she said, perfect.
This is the perfect opportunity for someone else
to create my signature for me.
And she's done it.
She's done it.
She's just got the results through and they
look really good. I'll be the
judge of that. They look really good.
Go on, show me this signature.
Oh, it's a lot better than mine.
It's nice. It's nice.
So they've given three options.
Can I have a look?
They've given three
options for her to choose from. Okay.
They actually did like a consultation.
They said, what do you want?
You know, what kind of,
what do you want to invoke from your signature?
Where are these people in the world?
I don't know where they come from, but.
I mean, quite a good service.
They give you like a, you know, a meeting being like,
what do you want it to feel?
And then they give you the options.
You can go back and suggest edits or changes.
You can actually just say, I don't like any of them and they can start again.
I like number three. Number three was my
favourite as well. Yeah, interesting.
I'll let her know.
So are you going to do it? I think I'm going
to do it. And how much? What's the ballpark?
It's actually not that expensive.
Oh, here we go.
As a man with no children,
a disposable income,
how much for someone to create a new signature for you? I think for mid-level calligrapher, which is what I'd go for.
I don't need the head.
I don't need the boss.
You don't need the big dog.
How much?
$85.
$85?
That's not bad, right?
For something that could last a lifetime.
Exactly, Ray.
We're convincing ourselves. I think do it thank you as someone who has a really crappy signature do it so i thought what we could do
is maybe to make me feel better about wanting to make this purchase i thought we could ask people
today what was the thing you got sucked in by on social
media? Yes. What was the thing that kept coming up in your feed and you're like, oh, I guess I need
that? And you purchased it. Maybe the slap chop. I mean, no regrets on the slap chop. What is your
slushy machine? Yes. I mean, no regrets on that either. 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696.
What purchase did you get sucked in?
Bree and Clint.
I've also had a couple of people already message in to say
I would love the details of the signature people.
Yeah, see, now it's spreading.
You're influencing.
You're influencing.
So I keep getting this Instagram ad that is suggesting a company
that will basically create and design a new signature for you.
You pay them, you tell them the kind of vibe you're going for
and they will completely redesign your signature.
And they promise not to steal all your money.
You get a cute signature out of this.
I mean, you do.
What's a couple of thousand dollars?
Because that's the thing.
Usually, like I remember when I first designed my signature,
I would have been 12 or 13.
It would have been when I got my first CF postcard.
We lose designed very loosely, don't we?
Yeah, exactly.
Because my signature sucks.
It's terrible.
Mine is ass.
$85 is what they're charging. I think it's about that, yeah. Yeah, about that. It's terrible. Mine is an S. $85 is what they're charging.
I think it's about that, yeah.
Yeah, about that.
Give or take.
So we're asking you, what was the purchase that you got sucked in by?
Let's talk to Taryn.
G'day, mate.
Hi.
Taryn, what was the thing that sucked you in?
Well, Bree, I'm just like you.
I'm diagnosed ADHD, so I tend to hyper-obsess over things.
It's not our fault, Taryn.
We can't help it.
I know, but it's stuck to the money out of me.
So print-on-demand, digital downloads, all that stuff off social media, I've done.
I've spent so much money on Etsy websites, buying templates, Canva, subscriptions.
Have you been on to DHGate yet?
Is that the template one where you buy the templates pre-made?
Oh, no, but I mean, it's just another thing to add to your list, Taryn, really.
Don't do it.
She doesn't need the encouragement.
And then after a week, I couldn't care less about it.
I give up.
You're over it, eh? You're so hyper fixated on it. And then once you have it I couldn't care less about it. I give up. You're over it, eh?
You're so hyper fixated on it.
And then once you have it, you're like bored.
Oh, and it's been hours, like into the night doing this.
And then I'm like, nah, don't care anymore.
Okay, I've got two questions for you, Taryn.
One, what's the purchase that you've made where you've gone,
that was such good value for money?
Like I still use it all the time.
I'm so glad I bought it.
From social media or just in general? From social media.
The thing that you got hooked in by? Probably, well
technically the Alexa because I saw the Alexa and how you
can use it to help your life as an ADHDer on TikTok. Boom!
And I went out and bought it and it's great. Nice. Me and my kids, we love it.
And then what's the thing that you bought that you've never used again?
Everything else.
Like $180 canvas.
Oh, damn.
That I used for like two nights.
Oh, damn.
Like three t-shirts.
It's all right, Taryn.
I spent like $120 on those paint-by-numbers,
and I literally sat down and painted for like three days
and then got bored.
Oh, yeah.
I can relate to that.
Thanks, Taryn.
Thanks, Taryn.
No worries.
See ya.
Let's talk to Ella.
G'day, mate.
Hey.
Ella, what were you hooked in by?
So you know those Eco Bamboo Toothbrushes?
Yes, I've seen those They kept popping up on my Instagram
Over and over and it was like
Cheaper than the supermarket
So I went on to check it out
Thinking I'll get a couple
But then if you bought the 28 pack
It ended up being a lot cheaper than the supermarket
28
I bought the 28
And I gave one to all my friends
because I didn't know what to do with them
and I don't think I'm ever going to have to buy a toothbrush again.
Are they good toothbrushes at least?
Yeah, they're good.
And they came in all colours, so it was all right.
I think I paid about $2 a toothbrush
and in the supermarket they're about $3.
That's not bad. I know. You're saving the planet, in the supermarket, they're about $3. That's not bad.
And Ella, you're saving the planet, mate.
Yeah.
You're doing your bit.
Yeah.
I'm fine.
Yeah, you're like a planeteer.
Nice work, Ella.
28.
She's like, well, if I buy 12, they're $2.30, but if I buy 28, they're $2.
Let's go one more.
Let's talk to Georgia.
G'day, Georgia.
Hi, Georgia.
All right, what was it that hooked you in?
I saw a Peter Alexander ad, and it was like dog pyjamas for your actual dog.
Yeah, I bought like four pairs.
Four pairs!
Did you buy all four pairs at once?
No, it was two and then another two.
Georgia, is your dog bald?
Why does it need pyjamas?
That many pairs?
No, he's actually pretty light.
He looks pretty cool.
But I just thought, what if he gets a bit chilly?
What if he sees another dog and gets jealous of their jacket?
Oh, my God. I mean, I laugh at you, Georgia,
but each of my dogs both have a Christmas set of Peter Alexander pyjamas
and an Easter set.
You guys are outrageous.
I got to.
You're a marketer's dream, Georgia.
People from Peter Alexander are just like like we got another one guys we got him we got him time title based on just the plotline, that she can do.
Bree and Clint's What's The Plot?
It's our movie guessing game where I go head to head with a punter to see who is the best at guessing plotlines.
And I was going to say, you're very good at this game, but you just told me that you lost last week.
Yeah, I haven't had the best year.
It hasn't been my best year, but, you know,
we get back on the horse and we try again.
We do, we do.
Yes.
And let's meet who I'll be taking on this afternoon.
It's Curtis.
G'day, Curtis.
How's it going?
Good, mate.
How are you?
Oh, pretty good.
Have you played this game before in the car, Curtis?
No.
I've listened to you play it and you're pretty good,
so I'm not lacking my chances.
I like it.
Be humble, Curtis.
Be humble.
False senses of security.
I can't tell if Curtis is bluffing or, yeah.
No, it's a good way to play it.
He doesn't bluff.
There you go.
Okay, Matty, what are the rules?
Okay, I am going to read out the plot of a movie
You buzz in with your name if you think you know what the movie is
Is it first to two?
First to two
And don't wait for Matty to finish the plot, Curtis
Buzz in whenever you think you know it, okay?
Great
Alright, good luck
There is a theme to this week's What's the Plot as well
You've got your big comedy show on tonight.
Oh, God.
Yes, I'm very nervous, yeah.
And so we're taking it back to basics.
These movies are all comedies.
Great.
Love a comedy.
What about you, Curtis?
Comedy fan?
Yeah, a bit of everything.
But yeah, comedy's good.
All right.
We're ready to roll.
Okay, movie number one.
Everyone in the family worries about our hero.
She's still unmarried at 30 years old and working at the restaurant owned by her parents.
After taking a job at her aunt's travel agency.
My big fat Greek wedding.
She's done it.
Great film.
Well done.
Fantastic film. You were almost there, Curtis. I could hear it on Great film. Well done. Fantastic film.
You were almost there, Curtis.
I could hear it on the tip of your tongue.
One of my favourites.

It's a classic movie.
It's a classic.
Classic.
All right, you need this one here, Curtis, to stay in it.

He gets a free guess and then you keep going.

What if it's him talking about an FBI agent?
Yeah.
Yes, an FBI agent.
Throw a guess out there.
It's The Heat.
He got it.

You're not really sorry, eh?
Curtis, you were right there, my friend.
Well done.
Mate, you were right there.
Call back and play any time.
We're going to hook you up with a consolation prize,
50 KFC chicken dollars.
Nice work.
Thanks for playing, Curtis.
That was a good game this week.
That was a great game.
I'm back on the horse.
She's back, baby.
And she's bloody riding it all the way to the end.
So it rolls over to next week.
It does.
$100 we will play for in What's the Plot next week.
Now, there's a new trend happening where people are putting toilet paper in the fridge. Oh, God.
This isn't like when Gen Z started eating Tide Pods, was it?
Yes.
That was a bad time for humanity, wasn't it?
So bad.
No, it's not.
There's a reason for it.
They're not just doing it for fun.
And I thought we could play a bit of a game in the studio here
where each of you are going to get a guess.
Why are people putting toilet paper in the fridge?
I've got a thought.
Okay.
Is it, I wondered whether it's because it cools the toilet paper down so that when you're
wiping, it's like a nice cold relief.
Good for sting ring.
Sting ring.
Yeah.
Especially if you've been out for a curry the night before.
I mean, that's it.
I mean, it's not a bad idea.
Not a bad idea.
What about you, Producer Claude?
Any ideas?
I'm thinking maybe you're in like a flatting situation and you don't want to like share
your amenities. Just somewhere you can
hide it. In the fridge with your name on it.
Next to your milk that has your name on it
with Vivit. Claudians toilet paper.
Do not touch. How weird
if your flatmate opened the fridge
and they're like, oh, Claudians lost it.
She's at it again. Putting toilet paper in the fridge and they're like, oh, Claudia's lost it. She's at it again. Putting toilet
paper in the fridge. What about you,
Ella? What do you think? Why are people putting toilet
paper in the fridge? For your eyes when they're
hot and needing a break. You put them on your eyes.
Like a cold tissue. Yeah, cold
cucumber. Yeah, like cucumber, yeah. But weirdly
toilet paper. I like
that one.
Unfortunately, all great guesses
but none of you are right.
Apparently, the trend is happening.
People are putting toilet paper in the fridge because it soaks up all the odours plaguing your fridge.
So hear me out.
So social media users are saying that toilet paper absorbs the moisture in the air that can contribute to mould, mildew and bad scents in your fridge.
Wow.
Yeah, if your food went out of date or there's a massive moisture build-up,
there's a good chance your fridge is a bit smelly.
And they reckon if you put toilet paper in there,
it'll soak up all that smell.
But they say there's a few key things.
They're like you need to get a fresh toilet roll
straight from the packet.
Like don't get one that you've half used from the dunny.
So it has to be fresh out of the packet.
And they also say that you shouldn't use the toilet paper
once it's gone in the fridge.
But that's just a waste of toilet paper.
I know.
They say it needs to be replaced every three weeks.
Wow.
Yeah.
Can you imagine if we were saying this back in 2020
when there was a toilet paper shortage?
People would be like, you're crazy.
Crazy.
Those things are worth thousands of dollars.
Do you guys have a Pongy fridge?
I don't think I do. I don't think so. Isn't it the Do you guys have a Pongy fridge? I don't think I do.
I don't think so.
Isn't it the worst when you have a Pong?
Like a few months ago, my partner and I, for about I reckon three weeks, I was like, there is something in this kitchen.
I don't know what it is, but it stinks.
And we looked, we cleaned out all the fridge, wasn't the fridge.
Then we started on the pantry
like shelf by shelf and this went on for like weeks and weeks and eventually we figured out
it was this old rotting courgette that would just slip to the back of the yeah the veggie drawer
slip between the cracks and it was you know it was, you know when it's so
old that it's literally turned
to liquid? And it's black.
Like it's disgusting.
Tip in that thing. You see this is why you
needed your toilet paper. I was, yeah
I know. I was gutted once we found out
where the odour was coming from though.
Because I couldn't have anything to blame my
farts on then.
It's the fridge! It's the fridge.
It's the fridge.
Free and Clint.
Let's do a birthday banger.
Free and Clint.
All I want for my birthday is a birthday banger.
That's right.
Some birthday bangers to get you home.
You call us up.
You tell us your birthday.
We figure out what was the number one song when you turned 16.
Then we'll play our favourite one out in full.
Simple.
We say simple, but sometimes it gets quite heated when
we're trying to figure out which song to play. Yeah, I mean, sometimes we don't always agree.
We don't always agree. And that's okay. And that's okay. We're still a family.
A dysfunctional family. Alright, who are we going to talk to first?
Let's go to Destiny. Hi, Destiny. Hi, Destiny.
Hello. You're going to do your mum's birthday banger.
Yes, my mum's always wanted to do it,
but she's at work listening to the radio.
Oh, you sweet girl, Destiny.
Very cute.
Okay, what's your mum's birthday?
The 5th of the 8th, 1969.
Nice, Destiny.
She was 16 in 1985.
And on your mum's 16th birthday,
this was number one.
Madonna
was the queen
in the 80s, 90s.
Still is.
Into the groove, Madonna. Is your mum
a fan of Madonna, Destiny?
My mum's a fan of a little bit of everything,
so I'm pretty sure she'll enjoy it.
I don't know your mum,
but I can just picture her dancing at her 16th,
in like a garage party.
I can picture Destiny's mum now doing the toe tap to that.
I call it the mum toe tap.
Destiny knows what I'm talking about.
I know what you're talking about.
Cool, Destiny.
Well, shout out.
What was your mum's name, Destiny?
Tanya.
Tanya.
Shout out to Tanya.
Hello, Tanya.
Hopefully you get to go home soon.
It is 12 past five.
But that's your birthday, Banger.
Let's move on to Megan.
G'day, Megan.
Hello. How are you? We. Hello, how are you?
We're good.
How are you?
I'm great, thank you.
Great.
That's good to hear, Megan.
Well, tell us your birthday and we'll figure out your birthday, Banger.
16th of June, 88.
All right, Megan, that means you were 16 in 2004.
And back on your 16th, this had a number one hit.
Can't see it didn't happen.
Can't see it isn't true.
Because I'm the one who's going through it.
Right in front of you.
Ben Lummis, They Can't Take That Away.
Are you loving that, Megan?
I mean, it could have been a little bit more upbeat.
Yeah, it is quite a slow banger, isn't it?
Yeah.
Were you, like, watching back in the day New Zealand Idol?
Were you going for Ben Lummis?
Yeah, no.
Oh.
I wasn't here.
He was robbed.
He was bloody robbed.
All right, Megan, hang there for a sec.
We'll do one more for Paul.
Hello, Paul.
How's it going?
Good, mate.
How's your day been?
Oh, busy enough, it seems.
Well, you're on your way home now?
Yeah, no, I just got back to town.
Oh, good to hear, Paul.
Well, tell us your birthday and we'll figure this out.
The 16th of December, 1991.
All right, Paul, sit tight.
You were 16 in 2007, but back on your 16th birthday, this was number one.
No one, no one, no one.
Let's go.
Let's go, Alicia Keys.
This is a song my sister used to sing, actually.
Is it?
Was she any good?
She had good taste.
I'm a twin, mate.
Well, there you go.
Your sister's going to love this.
It's her birthday banger, too.
Let's go.
That's mean.
Thank you.
I think it's a great one from Alicia Keys.
I'm going to go with Paul.
I'm voting Alicia Keys, no one.
That's my vote.
Yeah, mate. I'm with you.
It's a banger.
Hard out.
I'm voting Paul as well.
Matty's on board, Paul.
Let's go, Matty.
Cheers, mate.
You've won birthday banger.
We're going to get that on the air for you, mate.
Nice work.
I'm going to crank it up.
Mate, scream it.
Just belt it.
Thank you, guys.
You're welcome.
First time caller too.
Oh, lovely to have you here.
I've been to ZM for about 20 years.
And this is the first time you've called?
Yeah, it's hard to get through, you know.
Well, we appreciate you, Paul.
Have a good afternoon, mate.
Guys, cheers from Overcargill.
See you, mate.
Birthday banger, Alicia Keys, no one.
And it will only get better.
Bree and Clint
There's your birthday beggar for this afternoon.
No one on ZM from Alicia Keys.
That's for Paul.
Someone on the text machine said
we needed to ring the first time caller bell for Paul.
The song had already started.
We were in a fluster.
But you know what? Yes, justice for Paul. The song had already started. We were in a fluster. But you know what? Yes, justice for Paul.
Been a listener for 20 years of ZM. First time
caller today, Maddie McLean. And we love it.
Thank you for calling Paul from Invercargill. We appreciate you. Call back. Don't wait
another 20 years. No. Maybe callcargill. We appreciate you. Call back. Don't wait another 20 years.
No.
Maybe call back in 10.
Call any time.
Any time.
Five, 10 years.
Don't wait as long.
But we appreciate you, Paul.
Hey, I had some exciting news this week from a friend.
This is my best friend.
A thruple offer.
Yeah.
No way.
Yeah.
Really? God, that's a compliment, getting offered to be. A thruple offer. Yeah. No way. Yeah. Really?
God, that's a compliment getting offered to be in a thruple.
So we did it.
No, my best friend of 13 years.
No, no, my best friend since we were 13.
So that's-
Longer.
A lot longer than 13 years.
Has asked me to be in her bridal party for her wedding.
Oh, my God.
Are you going to be a groomsmaid or a?
Bridesman.
Bridesman.
Yeah.
Oh, cute.
I know.
Do you know what?
It's my first bridal party.
I've never been in a bridal party before.
Haven't you?
No.
What are you going to wear?
She told you.
No, I don't know.
Oh, my God.
I'm so excited.
I'm so excited.
But then, of course, I thought, well, first of all,
I'm really excited to be part of the wedding.
Yeah.
But the next thing is I'm really pumped to organise the hen stew.
So she's like, you're one of the organisers.
Yeah.
That's exciting because, I mean, it's exciting,
but it's also a bit of a punish, if I'm honest.
Is it?
Have you had to organise one?
Yeah.
I had to be involved
in organising my sister's hens
too. And for most of it,
it was fine, it was all good, but
it's quite a bit of pressure.
And I would imagine that
actually coming up with the ideas and stuff,
fun, but the admin?
Not fun.
I hate admin and there's so
much admin.
It's like bloody herding cats. Just a reminder, can you just put $150 into my account?
And then you end up footing the bill because some people just forget to pay.
What are the games that you're thinking that you might throw in?
You should do Adult Pass the Parcel.
I love that.
Yeah.
It was a great time with my sister's hens. And the end prize was a rather large adult toy,
which my auntie Sheryl Sheryl won.
And then she carried it around and used it as a microphone
for the rest of the night.
It was a good time.
And then what did she do with it?
And then it ended up at my sister's wedding.
And then it ended up in the paddock, which my two-year-old nephew found.
True story.
What an amazing journey that went on.
It saw some things.
Well, this is a friend who I assumed would have jumped
at the thought of a stripper at the hen's.
Because that is kind of you need to have that conversation, I think,
whether it be a hen's or a buck's, where you're like,
are we going down that route or are we not doing that?
Is it a yes or is it a no?
Have you asked your friend?
Yeah, and she said, I don't know how I feel about it.
I'm not sure that I want one.
What about like...
But is it up to her anyway?
It's not her call, really, is it?
It's our call.
We're the organisers.
If she's really like, I really don't want it.
Yeah, I wouldn't do that to her.
But if she's kind of like, oh, I don't know.
I know, but I think she genuinely is on the fence about it.
So what do I do?
I think, I mean, because you've got options.
You could go topless waiters.
That's classy. It's nice. Yes, it's nice. You know, it you've got options. You could go topless waiters. That's classy.
It's nice.
It's nice.
You know, it's different.
Yeah.
Or then you can just go the full.
Whole hog.
The whole hog, nighttime, Channing Tatum, Magic Mike, XXL.
You know what?
This is my tip, right?
Because the most recent hen's do that I went to, which was so fun, it was like a brunch, so it started quite early.
Yep.
And then everyone actually came back to our house for like a party, you know, but by the time we got back to our house, it was still like early afternoon and they had booked for the stripper to come at a certain time, but no one had
looked at what time the sun went down.
So, we were all sitting in the front yard, because it was in summer.
So, we're all sitting there.
We've all had a few drinks.
We're having a good time.
And then next minute, the stripper turns up, and it's like bright daylight, and it just
hits different in the daylight.
Yeah, the neighbours are walking past, walking their dog.
They're like, what is going on?
They're like peering through the bloody bushes.
They're like, what's happening in there?
So that's my tip.
Make sure you book it late enough that the sun has gone down.
Okay, perfect.
Yeah.
But I wondered if we could maybe solicit some calls today
to find out whether it worked or it didn't work.
Okay, good stories, bad stories.
You want success or failure with having a stripper at the Henzo Stag.
What happened when you invited a stripper in?
My God, the worst part is, because I mean we are in New Zealand,
you don't want to book someone and they turn up and someone knows them.
That's it, right?
Because it's awkward for all parties involved.
Six degrees of separation.
Everyone knows everyone in this country.
Yeah, exactly.
0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696.
A stripper at the hen's or stag do?
What's the go?
Bree and Clint.
I've been asked to be in my best friend's bridal party
and she's on the fence about whether or not she wants
to have a stripper at the hen's den. Okay, we're looking for stories
good or bad to get a gauge. I love this
text that's come through Maddie. We got our friend a stripper for his
21st birthday, although it was right after R&V so my mate
wasn't drinking so was not really into it to start with. Also
the stripper's speaker was broken,
so we had to play music via the Xbox and TV,
which was far too quiet.
Just super awkward.
Plus, she ruined his jeans with hot candle wax.
Not a vibe.
Not a vibe.
Not a vibe.
Let's hear from Natasha.
Hi, Natasha.
Hi, Natasha.
We'll come back to Natasha.
Let's try Tanya instead.
Hi, Tanya.
G'day, mate.
Kia ora.
How are you going, guys?
We're good.
What are your thoughts, mate?
Experience with strippers at hens or stag do's?
Well, my mate was having her hens do, right?
And I didn't help organise it at all.
Anyway, so we're in the lounge and, you know, we're a bit lit.
And I'm like, yeah, let's do this.
And then the stripper comes in.
And, like, he was trying to be all mysterious and, like, a hood on, like, a little thing going on.
And I was just like, hey, hold on.
Hold on.
Then I was like, cuz.
And then he was like, no.
And then he ran away.
And I was like, cousin, what are you doing? And then I was like, and then he ran away. And I was like, cousin, what are you doing?
And then I was like, well, my bros, I'm going to leave you to it.
And then I'm like, and I'm going to be in the car having a hui with his mum,
his life choices, because we thought he was in the mines in Australia.
And he said, he's one of my best friends.
Well, I was going through an existential crisis.
So I was like, all right,'ll let you tell you that, eh?
So just on that, no, you know what it is, New Zealand?
Two degrees, one degree of separation.
Oh, mate, you never know.
Did you say to your cousin that could be like a good show
at the next family reunion?
He could come out and...
What I said was, nah, mate, I want my $25 back
because we all put money in. That's just wrong.
You're like, I don't want it.
You owe me more than that.
And I'm emotionally scarred.
I'm ripped off and emotionally scarred.
Yeah, you're like, we're a tight family.
We're not that bloody tight.
You're like, cousin, put it away.
God's sake.
What are you doing?
Are you all right?
Oh, my God.
That's so good.
Is he still doing it or has he gone back to the mines?
Well, I don't know.
Because on his Facebook profile, it still says he works in the mines.
I'm not mining.
What, my cousin?
What are you digging around for?
What kind of business are you digging in there, cousin?
Oh, Tanya, this would be fantastic.
What a great call.
So just be aware.
You know, that's the thing.
That is New Zealand.
Danger.
Yeah, thank you.
You can muck around and you end up having your math teacher in there.
You don't want to see Mr McGonagall come in and do a bit of a dance to, you know, Pony.
That's not a good time.
Hey, thanks, Tanya.
Thanks for the PSA, Tanya.
Oh, jeez, that was so funny.
Someone text through speaking of one degree of separation.
They said that I attended a bachelorette where I just fired the stripper.
He used to work for me a year ago.
Safe to say nothing has been more awkward.
Someone else said that the stripper came in and it was actually someone that they used to work with and had a crush on.
And he spotted her straight away.
Oh, no.
Someone said, we got my best friend a stripper off a website, saw his photos and he was a bit of all right.
Turned out looking like we ordered him from Wish.
Oh, bless.
Oh, no.
Oh, Natasha's back.
Let's talk to Natasha.
G'day, mate.
Hello.
Sorry, I'm not sure what happened before.
That's okay.
No, you're all good.
What happened, though?
Did you get a stripper or was this organised for a friend?
Oh, it wasn't me.
It was a family member.
And it goes to show how small New Zealand is because I used to sleep with him and he
ended really badly.
No, Natasha!
He walked in and I was like, oh no, can't be. And then I heard his voice
because he had an accent and I was like, get me out of here.
Better to be you in the situation though because he's going to
have to get naked and he's going to be very vulnerable in that situation.
You're just going to be like, this is awkward.
Yeah, I've seen that before. I don't want to go back.
Natasha's like, I already paid enough to see this show.
Get me out of here.
She's like, I saw that for free.
I don't need to pay for it.
He should be paying me money to stand here and watch.
Oh, bless your heart.
Thanks for calling through, Natasha.
So it can be a good time.
You've just got to be careful about who you order.
You don't want to get your cousins or your math teachers or your exes.
Okay, Maddie?
You've just got to do background checks.
Yeah.
All right?
Thank you.
Weddings are fraught with rules these days, eh?
God, there's so many bloody rules, regulations.
So many.
Like you can't wear white if you're a guest to a
wedding. The other one I always say, because I'm a marriage
celebrant and I always say, don't post photos of the bridal party
before they've had a chance to post them themselves. Let them do it.
They want to have first go at it. The groom can't see the
bride beforehand.
All of these rules, right?
Don't hook up with the mother-in-law.
That's what I live by anyway.
Yeah, I mean, well, there was one time it went awry.
It's boring.
So.
What if she's really hot?
They always are.
Is that why you and my mum went off to the bathrooms together at my wedding?
I want to talk about what your mum and I did at your wedding, all right?
Well, this one woman in America is furious at a family member of hers
who she says broke a cardinal rule.
It's got to be a cousin.
It's always the cousin, surely.
Wasn't a cousin.
Wasn't a cousin.
Got to be maybe a sibling. Not a sibling. Not a cousin. It's always the cousin, surely. Wasn't a cousin. Wasn't a cousin. Got to be maybe a sibling.
Not a sibling.
Not a sibling.
Who could she be furious at?
Gran.
Grandma?
Gran.
What has grandma done?
Has she taken her bra off at the reception again?
That's what my grandma did.
Did she really?
She was so over it.
I distinctly remember.
Get this bloody thing off me.
Yeah, she's like, I'm sick of wearing this over the boulder,
shoulder, whatever it's called.
No, this grandma actually broke a rule before the wedding even took place.
Okay, what did she do?
She went shopping with her granddaughter to help her pick the perfect wedding dress.
Right.
That's lovely.
Lovely.
Went to a bunch of shops
and then finally they landed on the dress.
The bride said,
this is the one.
This is the one.
This is what I'm going to get married in.
Fit yes to the dress.
She said yes.
And the grandma was there when she said yes.
And the grandma,
as you know,
you can imagine it, right?
The grandma's sitting there. She goes, oh, you look beautiful.
I need to take a photo.
I need to take a few photos of you, doll.
Oh, no.
You look handsome and gorgeous.
The bride has woken up the next morning to find that the grandma
has somehow accidentally uploaded the photo of her in her wedding dress
as her profile picture.
No, Gran!
Oh, no.
Honestly, I think we need to start giving out licenses
for social media.
We really do.
You know, we need to start doing regular checks.
It's quite cute.
It's quite sweet, actually,
because she'd uploaded the profile picture
and there was a caption that went along
with the profile picture that said... What caption that went along with the profile picture
that said, what was it, gay rights?
She said
the message said, I can get a variety
of crowns if you want me to show
you. So what I think must have
happened was she was trying to send
a message but
accidentally uploaded it.
An innocent mistake, right?
And look, it's not ideal because as a bride,
you of course want to keep your outfit a bit of a secret for the big day.
But all in all, a bit of a harmless accident from Nan.
You can't be mad at Nan.
She's fuming at Nan.
Oh, she's obviously bridezilla because you can't be mad at Nan for that.
Nan's trying.
She's there.
She's involved.
She's trying to be a part of it.
It's not her fault that she's technology illiterate.
The bride has shared a series of text messages between her and Nan as kind of a can you believe what's happened to me.
Right.
I bet everyone's on Nan's side.
Everyone's on Nan's side now.
Yeah.
Because initially I think people went, oh, that's gutting.
It sucks.
But it's a mistake.
But also, it's a complete mistake.
And the granddaughter is in her text messages said to her, dear poor Nan, this is an absolute
effing betrayal.
What?
Yeah.
I cannot believe it.
Get over it, mate.
This has hurt me deeply.
Oh, my God.
It's an accident.
Move on.
What, Nan?
Although I would be asking Nan to delete those nudes that I sent her.
Just in case she uploads them.
Nan, get rid of them.
Nan, get rid of those nudes.
Yesterday, Maddie, you were quite impressive
with the new game that we launched.
I thought you did very well.
Not as good as the Taylor Swift superfan.
No, she was unreal.
She was ridiculous.
But I got a couple right, didn't I?
I think you got quite a few.
And I thought we could give it another go.
Taylor versus Taylor's version.
Is it Taylor Swift?
Is it Taylor's version?
Here we go.
Round two.
Is it Taylor Swift, the original recording,
or is it Taylor Swift, Taylor's version?
And for today's game, Matty, I'm going to come into the game
because I wanted to give it a go.
It sounded fun.
And we're going to go up against our resident expert Swifty, Megan.
Okay, so I didn't hear you today,
so you're going to have to tell me how this works.
I can kind of guess, but is it a buzzin' situation?
It's pretty straightforward.
It's pretty straightforward.
So, Producer Claude runs the game.
Hello.
You're running the game now.
So, this is, what are we calling it? Taylor
or Taylor's version? Essentially I'm just
going to play a song and you guys need to pick if it's
original Taylor or Taylor's version. You
all get a guess for each song and then
whoever gets the most points at the end. Okay, so no time
crunch. No time crunch, no need to
buzz in. We'll do the rounds, we'll figure out
what you guys think. I'm nervous.
Remind me how big of a fan you are.
Oh, it's just pretty casual.
I've just seen her like 24 or five times.
You've seen her live 20 odd times.
When you were at Ovi Night of the Errors tour?
It's just a casual hobby, yeah.
Also just runs one of the biggest Taylor Swift fan accounts
in the world.
Don't say which one just in case I do really badly at this.
Okay, fair enough.
All right, Claude, when you're ready, give us the first song.
Here's your first one.
Because the players are going to play, play, play, play, play.
And the haters are going to hate me, hate me, hate me, baby.
I'm just going to shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
Shake it off, shake it off.
Oh, that's hard.
I know.
Okay.
Oh, you know.
I feel really confident about it.
Do you feel really confident? I don't. I mean, I'm screwing you know. I feel really confident about it. Do you feel really confident?
I don't.
Really confident.
I mean, I'm screwing myself now.
I'm definitely going to get it wrong.
The whole point of these re-records is for her to make them sound exactly the same, so
you want to stream the new one.
Yeah, right.
So she's actively trying to make them sound the same.
So we're not going to feel bad if we get it wrong.
Yeah, I'm trying to make you feel better, but also trying to cover my ass.
Make yourself feel better.
Okay, so we'll take it in turns to go first.
I'll just jump out on a limb and say I think it's Taylor's version.
I think it's re-recorded.
Me next?
Yeah, you go, Megan.
Okay.
Oh, no.
I think it's Taylor's version.
Oh.
You do?
Oh, yes.
Okay, I think it's original.
Okay, that's fine. And I'm going to start with my guns here. You're going don't, oh yes. Okay, I think it's original. Okay, that's fine.
And I'm going to start with my guns here.
You're going to say, so you've said.
I've said original.
It's original.
The Taylor Swift expert, Megan.
I was going to lock in original, but I actually haven't listened to the 1989.
We're now in fourth week.
What's wrong with you?
Okay, resident Swifty, Megan has said Taylor's version.
I've said Taylor's version.
So obviously someone's got it right because you've all said different things.
Yes.
So I can confirm that was original.
Sorry, Megan.
I led you down the garden path.
It's all right, though.
There's more to go.
Okay.
It's not a lot.
Maddie is ahead now.
We can come back.
With one point. But you guys ahead now. We can come back.
You can come back from this. Here's another one.
Don't even need to hear anymore.
I don't need to hear more either.
One of my all time favourite Swifty songs.
I'm locking in Taylor's version.
I'm locking in Taylor's version as well.
This one kind of upset me a little bit. I didn't sound as good as Taylor's.
Yeah, it's different.
You're all right.
You got it.
I knew straight away.
It's almost got like a different,
yeah, it's got like a different beat
or a different, there's something.
Can we hear it again?
I can't even hear it in this one, to be honest.
You got that dream, dream, dream, dream
Look in your eye and I got that red lip God, I love that lyric.
And I got that.
It's one of the best all-time pop lyrics, in my opinion, ever.
And I got that.
It's so good.
But, yeah, I could tell there was something about it.
Maddie is two points.
Swifty expert Megan is one, and I'm one.
What's next?
Here you go.
Okay.
I've been first a couple of times.
Do you want to go first? I'm happy to go first.
I think that's Taylor's version.
I'm locking in Taylor's version also.
My gut was Taylor's version. Okay. Well. Taylor's version also. My gut was Taylor's version.
Okay, well...
It's a heartbeat for me.
Oh, really?
The what?
The heartbeat.
Can you hear a heartbeat in the back of that?
Can we hear it one more time?
I mean, it is in the original too, but...
Right.
But it sounds different.
Yeah, it sounds a little different.
Apparently, this song is the original.
No!
Unless Ross has messed with it.
Here's your heartbeat.
Ooh, the heartbeat's cool.
Wow.
Okay, we're all wrong.
We're all so sure as well.
Yeah, no points there, right?
So Maddie's still on two.
Maddie's on two, Megan's on one, Brie is on one.
Oh, 1989?
Oh, yeah, it is so far.
Well, let's mix it up a bit.
I know.
Megan, you want to go first?
I'm not confident, but I'm going to lock in...
I'm going to lock in Taylor's version.
I was going to lock in Taylor's version as well.
Then I'm going to lock in original.
Okay, well, I can confirm.
Obviously, one of you has it right.
It's original.
Now I'm going to get Taylor's version.
I was like, what?
I was so sure.
Okay, is there any more?
Is that it?
We can do one more if you like.
Well, it just means that we're all on two points now.
True.
Okay, so this is for the win.
This is for the win.
Last one.
Here we go.
Here we go. What do we think?
Oh, I'm going to lock in Taylor's version.
I'm going original.
You're going original too.
Oh, okay.
So this means either Maddie and Megan, the expert Swifty,
take it out or I win.
Okay.
For the final time, I can confirm the winner is Brie Thomas.
Yes!
That was Taylor's version.
I'm getting a Taylor Swift tattoo, another one.
There it is.
Well done.
Versus Taylor's version.
So fun.
