I'm just your co-host Yeah right My sister told me about the pregnancy And when she gave birth And I was like, dear Jesus. Yeah, yeah. But it's beautiful. We're jealous. We don't get to experience that. Oh, piss off with that shit.

What was your bad news? Oh yeah, back to me. Oh yeah, sorry. So bad stuff does happen to men as well. Oh, you poor thing. Here we go. What's it going to be? He hasn't been able to get a haircut for ten weeks or something. No, it's more serious than that. I have lost my most favourite thing. Your Blu- or something. No, it's more serious than that. I have lost my most favourite thing. Your Blu-ray player.

No. I threw that in the skip. That was a PlayStation 3. You could have sold that on Trade Me. No, it was a PlayStation 3. You definitely could have sold that. You could have sold that. I wouldn't boot it.

I didn't know how to work it. You could have traded it in to EB Games and get a Nintendo Switch. I bought a PS3 when it was cool to buy a PS3. Yeah. And it came with Red Dead Redemption. Great game. It's the only game I ever played on PlayStation.

It's the only game I ever played. So it was worth it. Worth the money. I bought it as a Blu-ray player. Okay? I hate those people. They're like, oh, no, I bought it just so I can use it. I can game and then I can also watch movies in high def.

Yeah, well, joke's on them and me because no one's Blu-raying anymore. So there's no point. Blu-rays was never a good idea. Can I tell you? Yeah, I want to hear your thing. Can I tell you my bad news? Yeah, what is it? I broke my Dyson.

Oh, no. That is bad news, yeah. But is it really bad news? Because you got it for free. Yeah, but he doesn't have a spare one sitting around. How's he going to vacuum? Like, you probably could get another one. So I bought the first one.

Yeah, nice. And then we got a free upgrade. So which one broke? The upgrade. Oh, no. That is a little bit devastating, but it does suck. If the old one broke, then who gives a shit because you got the new one? It doesn't suck.

Exactly, Elliot. It doesn't suck exactly Elliot. No the problem is it does suck I snapped part of it and so now it's in two pieces. What are you doing? Oh I know what he was doing. You know what a lot of men do with the vacuum. They clean the house. We clean the house. That thing is so powerful you suck it right off.

And they're always like oh I wonder what this would feel anyway I snapped it and the handle how did you do that the bin the bit that kicks the dust I snapped it right off

anyway I've sent the photos away easy to do mate yeah I've sent that off to Dyson and I've said look it's broken is this the gold one

or the purple one purple one so the newest one is the gold one yeah I've got the one down from the gold one or the purple one? Purple one. So the newest one is the gold one? Yeah. I've got the one down from the newest one. The one just, right, right, right. Anyway, I sent them the email with my pictures. Oh, no.

Oh, have they given you another one, have they? No, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, they've given him another free one. No, no, no, no, no, no. Here we go. Why did you send them? Why did you send the pictures? Just to get their advice on what you should do?

No. Or were you looking for a new idea? I'm claiming under the two-year warranty, okay? You got it for free! It still has a warranty. I love it. Anyway, the best bit of the email is, they've been really good,

and they're booking a courier to pick it up. But then the email concludes with, we look forward to promptly resolving your query. Kia kaha. Stay strong. Stay strong. The Dyson company is telling me in an email, and it's a wonderful sentiment, but they're telling me to stay strong through all

of this. That's lovely. And I don't know if they're telling me to stay strong through the COVID-19 pandemic or to stay strong through the period in which I'm not going to have my Dyson vacuum cleaner. I think it might be the global pandemic. I don't know. They are both quite devastating. Yeah, I know.

And you know what? And which one's more pertinent and relevant to me and Julie, my Dyson customer care consultant? You know what? I'll apologize to you. When we started this chat and I had a go at you and I thought it was going to be something third world problem. Yeah. Now you really showed me that your free $800 vacuum cleaner has broken.

What's a third world problem? Do you mean like malaria? First world problem. Damn it! Here's the podcast, everybody. Mars has a problem. Mars is not the third world either. Yeah, but it's another planet.

Far out. Is that not right? No. What about like what's the lost world then in Jurassic Park? Not there either. Right. I need to go home. Here's the podcast, everybody.

Hey, Google, what's the time? It's 3 p.m. Give or take a minute. Alexa, play ZM on iHeartRadio. Playing ZM on iHeartRadio Playing ZM on iHeart Radio. Hey, Siri, when are Brie and Clint on? Brie and Clint are on air in five, four, three, two, one. Afternoon, everybody.

Brie and Clint, good to be here. Hi, Brie. Hello, mate. Well done, everybody, on largely getting through the first day of Level 3. Yes, some of you messed up very badly, but let's not dwell on the negatives. Let's not talk about those people. No, let's dwell on it a little bit. Yeah, what are you messed up very badly, but let's not dwell on the negatives. Let's not talk about those people. Nah, let's dwell on it a little bit. Yeah, what are you up to?

Yeah, what are you doing? What are you up to? I know Burger Fuel is very good, but is it that good? Is it worth... You know the ramifications, okay? You know what it can do. So I hope it was the best C&Cheese

you've ever had in your goddamn life. And can we make it clear, I don't think we're angry at Burgerfield for this because they would have just been swamped by people. They had to open. They've got to pay their bills as well. But you bloody idiots, sit in your car. Yeah, wait outside.

Sit in your car. You know what's a great bubble? Your car. It's a great bubble. You can put the windows up. No one can get in your bubble when you're in your car. It's got air conditioning. It's got heating.

I can't help but feel a little bit guilty. Like yesterday at this time we were doing our big KFC run and maybe we got people a little bit too hungry. But we followed all the social distancing we needed to do. You know, we were trying to set a good example. No one got out of the car. No. You can go through the drive-thru.

Not at Burger Fuel. I get that as well. I know. I know. Anyway, let's not judge anyone too much. We're on to a new day. I also hope that people have got a lot of their takeaway cravings out of their system. Like yesterday was always going to be intense.

It was a big day yesterday. Today you've probably got a little bit of McRegret, you know? Like give yourself at least another 24 hours. You know when you drink too much and you go, I am never drinking again. Yeah. And yeah, you're drinking again next weekend. Fast food hangover. Yeah, maybe we've got a five-day window here

where I can just cool off and take stock a little bit. I don't know. Today on the show, lots of fun stuff coming up. We're going to talk to Nat from Nat's What I Reckon. Yeah, so if you've seen his viral videos, they've been blowing up the internet. He does these cooking demonstrations where he pretty much says,

if you eat sauce out of a jar, you're a bloody idiot. Yeah, he's got knit tattoos and long hair. He does not look like your normal celebrity chef, but he's very, very good. He's so good. And he's going to join us on the show before 5 o'clock. But next, advice from a professional hairdresser on how you can cut your own hair at home.

I don't know how this is going to go. But where people are getting desperate, so we've recruited one. She knows what she's doing. She used to cut Bree's hair And we'll talk to her on the show next Bree and Clint, get in Bree and Clint We're getting to the stage of lockdown Where it's time for a haircut for a lot of us

I've been I think I've been six weeks without a haircut now Oh good for you mate Yeah I'm starting to feel it though It's definitely in hat territory. You know, I wouldn't feel, I mean, I don't have anywhere to go, but if there was a fancy occasion,

I know I wouldn't show up. I want to see. I want to judge. It's not even bad. I quite like it with a bit of extra length. It's just, you know, I just would prefer a little bit, I'd prefer to be a little bit

First world problems at this stage. A little bit cleaner and tidier. So I thought this afternoon we should speak to a hairdresser to get some advice for people who are looking to go DIY. That's good because I've seen some disasters. Yeah. So if we can give some advice from an actual hairdresser, that'd be good.

And it turns out we know an actual hairdresser. Please welcome to the show Mama Di. No, Nanny Di. Nanny Di. How are you going, guys? Yeah, good. We're going well. Now, Mum, can you confirm you are indeed a qualified hairdresser?

Oh, yes, indeed I am. That sounded hesitant. Why are you so dubious on your own qualifications? Well, I've had a very, very good track record up until about a week ago. Well, she did my sister's hair and it was a disaster. You did Amber's hair before the birth. That's important too.

She wants that nice first baby photo. Oh, no. Did you do a fringe that was too short or something like that? No, I thought I'd blonder up a little bit, but it went orange. She did the roots. Turned out Ed Sheeran.

I was absolutely devastated. We need to move past that because it's not a good endorsement for the advice you're about to give. We want, I want you to move past that. Everybody makes mistakes, okay? Alright? Even Jonah Lombu dropped the ball sometimes. We need to know

some advice for people who are looking to go DIY on themselves or their partners. What is the most important advice that you, as a qualified hairdresser, can give somebody for cutting hair for the first time? All I can say is make sure you've got extra length that it can get fixed up if need be.

What, to cover up your mistakes? Yes. It doesn't help at all. Of course, I would be thinking that everyone would be using sharp scissors, but they probably aren't. No, they'll be using whatever's in the drawer. What about a knife? Yeah.

Oh, Brianna. I've seen something we'll do with a lighter as well. Yeah, what about a lighter? Yeah, yeah. And a sword, a samurai sword. Okay, let's stick to something seen something we'll do with a lighter as well. Yeah, what about a lighter? Yeah, yeah. And a sword, a samurai sword. Okay, let's stick to something simple, okay? What about a fringe? There'll be girls out there who need a change

and what's more drastic than giving yourself a fringe? What is the most important thing to know about cutting in a fringe? The most important part about cutting a fringe is if it's wet, you always make it come down to at least a couple of inches below the eyebrows. A couple of inches below the eyebrows? That's the nose. At least an inch.

At least an inch. Okay. Yeah, because it shrinks up when it dries. It can be really, really bad news. That's actually good advice. That is good advice. Your hair is longer when it's wet, correct? Yes. Yes. Okay. And that's good advice. That is good advice. You hear it's longer when it's wet, correct? Yes.

Yes. Okay. And that's the same. It'll shrink up. Yes, exactly. Yeah. And the other thing is you're better off

to have a bit of a jagged fringe because then you don't have to worry about it being so straight. Okay. All right. That sounds right to you. I've got one last question

and this is more of a hygiene one for the fellas who are looking to just maybe run the clippers over because you can't really mess that up, right? That sounds right too. I've got one last question, and this is more of a hygiene one. For the fellas who are looking to just maybe run the clippers over, because you can't really mess that up, right? You can't muck up just number one all over, right? No, you can't really. Is it hygienic to use the same clippers on your head that you use on your downstairs?

Oh! No, no. But if you had to? Definitely not. No, no. What if you had to. Definitely not. No. But if you didn't have it. No. What if you already have? What would be your hypothetical advice for someone that's already done that?

Gee, I don't know. You'd have to go and get some medication, I think. Cream for the crabs, Mum. Well, it mightn't be nips that you're dealing with. Yeah, maybe not hairspray. Maybe use fly spray. Okay, well, that's professional hairdressing advice from our resident hairdresser. Hairdryer?

She's a professional hairdryer, everyone. She's full of hot air. Dyson, are you listening, Dyson? Sign her up. I would be complex. I was reading some stuff online and there's a story that was talking about Tom Cruise back in his early days of acting. Oh, yes.

Where he apparently blew up because he was on set at one of the movies and he found out that he had to share a room with one of the other actors. Right. So essentially Rob Lowe, everyone knows Rob Lowe, very attractive older man. He's the face of some meal replacement shakes at the moment. Is he? Have you seen that TV ad? No.

I can't remember what it is, but Rob Lowe's talking about some, yeah, it's weird. He's quite famous. He's quite famous, but then he's doing these meal replacement shakes. Yeah. So anyway, yeah, Rob Lowe, we all know Rob Lowe. Good looking dude. Anyway, him and- That's a good looking room.

Very good looking room. In the 1980s, can I say? Super good looking room. And they were both in, obviously, the cast of the movie The Outsiders. Anyway, so apparently they all flew to New York and there was a big cast. I actually looked up who was in the cast of this movie and it consisted of Matt Dillon, Patrick Swayze, Emilio Estevez, which is Charlie Sheen's brother.

Yes. Yep. And Rob Lowe and Tom Cruise. So big cast. And it's 1983. 1983, yeah. So these guys are all like coming up, right? Yeah, so they're kind of all on the rise

and the movie The Outsiders ended up being one of the biggest films of the year. It was very successful. Anyway, so Rob Lowe was talking on Dax Shepard's podcast and he said that Tom Cruise walked into this hotel room and Rob Lowe's sitting in the hotel room and he goes, what are you doing in here? And he was like, oh, I think we're sharing a room. And apparently Tom Cruise just lost it.

Really? Just absolutely lost it and was like, I'm not sharing a room. Why? Because he was like, I'm a big star and I refuse to share a room and all this kind of stuff. Because some people can't share a room because of their personal habits. Oh. You know?

Yeah, I kind of get that. Like you and Ellie. Like there's a real issue. You and Ellie couldn't share because we go on tour a bit. You and Ellie couldn't share rooms with anybody except each other. I was going to say there's no problem with Ellie and I. We share really well. No, you're perfectly compatible.

But from a flat chillers point of view. We won't talk about what goes on. It could be, it's not even a gender thing. Ben or I couldn't share a room with either of you guys. Stay in our room. No, I would definitely not want to. We've got strict policies about our room sharing. We do, yeah.

Yeah, we don't talk about it. Yeah, keep the window open. Anyway, so apparently it was like at a really nice hotel and Tom Cruise refused to room with Rob Lowe, but I don't know exactly what happened in the end, but it got me thinking about whenever you've had to share a room with someone, like Ellie and I have roomed heaps, Like Ellie and I have roomed heaps. You and producer Ben have roomed heaps.

Yeah. But I don't think I've shared a room with anyone until this job since I was like probably I reckon eight or nine. Have you? Only through work. Only when I've needed to for that sort of thing. Yeah. I was very lucky in my house growing up because there's three boys.

Yes. And so generally there's going to be, because we didn't live in a mansion. Yeah, because boys will have to live with boys. Yeah, boys and boys. Well, just because of the age splits. But because I was the oldest, when the sleep out became available, I just moved out to the sleep out and it was mine. Oh, you're the oldest kid that got everything.

First. I got everything first. Okay. It went through everybody. Everybody ended up're the oldest kid that got everything first. I got everything first. It went through everybody. Everybody ended up with it but I got it first. Yeah, so you got it for the longest. But I could share. If I needed to share, I could share. And did you? No. Of course you did. No, I had my own space. I put in a couch and a fridge. I had

a great room out there. Yeah, I'm jealous. My brothers were in the house in single waterbeds side by side and I'm out there in the sleep out with a queen size waterbed all to myself. Can I just say, very strange that you all had waterbeds. We were a waterbed family, okay? That is so random. Mum and dad also had a waterbed.

Oh, nah. What was going on in your household, eh? That is such a random, weird fact about you. Which, we've talked about this. It's like when you're a kid, you don't know that you're poor. We didn't know that we were a weird waterbeard family. Yeah. Because that's just who we were. But that's like me when I was a kid. I didn't know we were poor.

And then as I grew up I was like, oh. You don't know. So people don't share a room with their sister for that long. How long did you share a room for? Well, to be honest we didn't even have our own room. We actually, the lounge room they turned into a bedroom and me and my sister shared that room.

Oh, yeah? Yeah. But not for too long. Some people, you know, share for a lot longer. There will be siblings listening to this show who were stacked four high. Yeah, and I want to talk to those people. Yeah. Like, who are the ultimate extreme sharers?

How long did you have to share with the sibling for? How many? And I think that's it. Call now, 0800 DIAL ZM, or you can text us on 9696. How long did you share for? Story out today about Tom Cruise not being impressed when he was on the set of the movie The Outsiders that he had to share a room at the plaza with Rob Lowe.

Rob Lowe, ambassador for the Atkins diet. We figured it out. It wasn't meal replacement shakes. It's that weird diet where you just eat bacon. Yeah, the Atkins diet is a horrible one. No, it's not. In theory, it looks quite good because you eat bacon and eggs and that sort of thing, which, I mean,

too much of a good thing is not a good thing. But, yeah, it, just a very retro diet and I guarantee you Rob Lowe's not doing the Atkins diet. No. I guarantee you he's not. Probably not. Anyway, apparently Tom Cruise not impressed about sharing a room and we're asking you this afternoon on 0800DIALSATM

how long have you had to share a room with someone for? Char's here. Hey, Char. Hi, Char. Hi, how are you? Good, how are you? I'm doing good. Oh, here. Hey, Char. Hi, Char. Hi, how are you? Good, how are you? I'm doing good. Oh, that's good, Char.

Is this something you did back in the day or are you sharing your room now with someone? No, something back in the day. How long? I was born with a twin sister as well and I shared my room from when I was born right up until I was 15 years old. Yeah, that makes sense for twins.

Did you like it or did you hate it? No, I didn't. I love to have my own space. Yeah, but you're twins. You have to do everything together. Yeah, but she had a bladder habit as well at night time that she couldn't control, and I had to live with that as well. A bladder habit?

I've never heard it referred to as a bladder habit. She's trying to be nice. Yeah, but you're a twin. You're the same. You would have had the bladder habit as well. I didn't do that. Oh, my God. you're a twin. You're the same. You would have had the bladder habit as well. Oh, I didn't do that. Oh, my God. No, you would.

You're the same. Same person. Same clothes. Same haircut. We're fraternal. I have my own sack. Okay, sure. Thank you.

She's funny. Rachel's here too. Hey, Rach. Hi, Rach. Hi, how are you? Good. Is it you that shared a room with someone? No, it was my husband.

He's one of 12. Whoa. There were six girls and six boys. The six boys in one room and the six girls in another. You're kidding me. 12 kids in a three-bedroom house. That's right. And there was not six beds in one room.

I was just about to say. They literally shared top and tail. And sometimes they slept on the floor. It just depends on who went to bed first. You can't. I'm imagining it was a normal-sized three-bedroom house. You can't get more than one double bed into those rooms. No, you can't.

And they literally did that their whole childhood until they all left home. How many beds? Oh, my God. There was just like a couple in each room. So wait, the people who went to bed early got the bed. Got the bed. Yeah, but you would top and tail and that's, you know, and there was a speaker in my husband's one

where he would just sort of lean up against that. They just, like, it would be. That's insane, Rachel. My grandmother told us stories like this. Yeah. But if she was still alive, she'd be 84. It's a different time. How old's your husband?

What generation does he come from? He's 58. And he was one of the younger kids. Right. So he would have had it the toughest being one of the younger kids too. Last question for you, Rachel. When did he escape from Glory Vale? Pretty much.

I mean, he was about 16 or 17. They lived that house. That was their homestead. They lived their whole lives, you know, 16, 17. And the funny thing is, the father would go in and count that there were six girls in there every night. He didn't bother counting

the boys. Yeah, fair enough. Thanks for sharing, Rachel. So interesting. Thanks. This is exciting news for Shorty Street fans, Clint. The production company has confirmed that the beloved serial drama

will resume filming in episodes this week. So they're going to get back on set, start filming those, you know, episodes we all know and love. That's good because it's about time for that hospital to explode again. Yeah, I know. It has been a while, yeah. Well, what's the strangler doing at the moment?

He's probably out of work as well. That volcano that's underneath the hospital is well due to blow. It's been ready to erupt for years now. They have to, like everybody else though, follow social distancing policies. Yeah. Like just because they're actors and just because it's a fictional hospital

doesn't mean that they aren't immune to the things that everybody else is experiencing at the moment. Well, that's the thing. And of course, you know, every episode of Shortland Street involves, you know, characters getting into bed with each other

or people having affairs. So how are people going to have affairs if they can't touch each other? That's the main question that we need to answer. You're right. And we've got someone who we can ask, a beloved actress from Shortland Street who plays Nicole Caruso Miller. It's Sally Martin. Hello. Hey, Sally. Hello. How are you guys? You're the perfect person to ask these questions.

Yeah. Well, yes. Yeah, I kind of am. So have you guys started filming Shorty again yet? We start filming tomorrow morning, but we've had two days of social distanced hairdressing to prep us all. Wait.

What do you mean by that? I know, right? Like, that's what we wondered. But we're all in full PPE gear and the hairdresser is just behind you. So, and you're wearing masks and things. There's no talking. No talking? I know, right?

With the hairdresser? I know. And especially if you're a chick because you're in there for usually hours. That's like your counselling session, Sally. What are you writing? You've just given me a really good idea, and you could actually float this to the producers. You talk about PPE, and the show is filmed in a hospital.

What if the next month, two months of storylines was just all set in the ER and you guys were just fully, like like triaged up and you've got head to toe PPE on and there are no scenes, there's no cafe, there's no cafeteria no one's going out to the park. If you are going out to the park, you're going in full PPE like could we take Shortland Street forward that way? Well

it would give me like an hour more in the morning to sleep in because you just have to like roll into your face mask and your gown like you can get fat as you want, tan as you want. Yeah. Speaking of which. Yeah. Thank you, Clint. Good idea, right? Yeah. Speaking of which. Amazing idea. Ben Barrington goes to my gym. Well, he did. Oh, name drop. He goes to the same Les Mills as me. And I see him in there because he's the hunk of, he's the hunk of food. He is, he's as good as he ever, yeah.

He's doing the bicep curls, and he's doing the slow pulls down. More than me. Is there provisions for that in the new Shortland Street set-up? Like, have they set up a gym for the likes of Ben Barrington to get the pump on that he needs before he walks

onto set? I mean, he can't take on that poonami not pumped up. No, he can't. He can't. And you know what though? He's going to have to continue keeping the same sleek, svelte physique that he always has. He can't get too buff. That's Ben's

problem. He really struggles to not get too buff. Oh, me too. Yeah, I thought you might be that kind of guy as well. I feel so bad for him. He'll be saving time. The time that you're wasting, he'll be saving that in the hairdresser's chair. So true to all you guys. Absolutely.

Sally, I do need to ask because I did mention, I mean, a lot of the storylines on Shortland Street are, you know, affairs and people hooking up and getting into bed with each other. What's going to happen with those scenes? Like are they going to be filmed or are the storylines just going to be really kind of cookie cutter now? Well, it's tricky because we thought about this too. As much as a lot of it's about relationships

and sexual relationships or affairs and stuff, there is so little kissing or intimacy that actually happens on screen. But there still is, you know, you have to have a peck every now and then or a pash or a pash like dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun. But I think yeah, obviously that's not happening and we're going to

have to use our eyes, you know, we're going to have to use our emotions and yeah, I know, it's going to be a real trick for many of us. You've got to have coronavirus in Ferndale, I think. That's the only way to get around the storyline of why you're awkwardly two metres apart. Yeah.

The interior scenes inside each of your homes, the fact that you're now sitting on lounges in different parts of the house, there's got to be some kind of explanation for it. Again, I heard Ben do an interview this morning where he said they'll be able to sort it with editing and you won't be able to tell. And I just call BS. I don't. I don't. Yeah, I felt the same. And really, like you guys, I think, well, most people don't. There's many tricks to the camera and there's many ways that

you can kind of falsify intimacy or intimacy or closeness, but I'm going to find it personally hard to not, to be that far away from someone, even just in a conversational sense, you know, if you're in your, like my apartment set and you're having a normal conversation with my mum, Leanne, or something, it's quite, you know, if you're two metres or one metre away, it's quite unnatural. The camera can check it, but it's going to... And that's where you're going to have to call on every single part of your acting now,

all the skills that you acquired on the set of Power Rangers. That's right, everything I've learned, absolutely, and from Ben Barrington on Chorlton Street. You've got this. This is the role you were born to play. You've got this, Sally. Sally, let me leave you with this. I know there's obviously storylines that you won't be able to do and you have to kind of work around it.

There's one storyline that has been prominent on the show that won't be affected by coronavirus, and that is the DP storyline. I feel like you should bring it back. Is that your penis? I feel like it's time to shine. It's much safer to show someone your penis via a text. Who would be showing the penis? Like, what are we?

You choose. You choose. Oh, me? No. Oh, okay. Actually, I'll have a think. You can have your choice of penises. That's what it's come to.

Oh, my God. That's Sally Martin. Shortland Street resumes filming this week. Sorry, Sal. I love it. Great. Oh, my God. Bless you.

Back in a moment. Oh, you guys are so much fun. See you, Sally. Bree and Clint. They are predicting online shopping is about to blow up at level three because there's more stuff you can get now. So people are going to return. A lot of people have got items that have been in their cart

for a long time that they're looking to redeem. Oh, yeah, of course, because I tried to buy something last week, couldn't get it. No. Yeah, they said no. Right, so this week I can. I don't know. Don't tell me because you know I have that addiction.

I don't know. Well, maybe for you, no, you can't. No. Okay. No, the Iconic is still closed for you. Damn. Also, you need to shop local, man. So this story is particularly relevant.

I'm just going to read you the headline. Hot dog. Four-year-old attempts to buy 990 sausages online. Oh, been there. There's a kid in the UK who's got onto his parents' iPad and placed a shopping bill which totaled $925 New Zealand dollars. I'm not even mad. I'm impressed.

You should be impressed. What did he buy? Well, let me take you through his shopping list. Okay, these are the items. Okay, what does a four-year-old want to buy online if he had free reign? Here it is. First of all, 990 mini peperamis. What a legend.

I mean, who doesn't want that? They just sound good. Yeah. And 990 is aamis. What a legend. I mean, who doesn't want that? They just sound good. Yeah. And 990 is a nice round number. 120 Viennese whirls. What's that? I don't know. I imagine they're a biscuit.

I think they're some sort of cakey treat. 594 bakewells. What's that? I don't know. Food. It's food. Food, yeah. 590...

Okay, these are all from the baked section. 594 fabs. We know what this kid's been to. 184 oranges. So he's getting his vitamin C. Oh, so he's getting healthy. That's good. How many oranges?

184. Don't know if you need that many. No, they go off. Oh, this is where the majority of the bill will come from. He ordered 11 packets of pine nuts. God, this guy is a baller. Yeah, right? Who orders any pine nuts?

How did this come in at only $900? This is not $900. Yeah, this is not $900. This is more. 24 rashes of bacon. Oh, see, I like this kid. 24 Cumberland sausages. He loves his sausages, doesn't he?

He's already got 990 pepperamis. Yeah. Oh, he's just chucked 24 Cumberlands on top, so he's got over 1,000. You need the Cumberlands. So I think if you have 1,000, I think if you order 1,000 sausages, you get 10 free. Oh, well, that's why he was doing it.

That's obviously his logic. Two cans of deodorant. Oh, he'll be sweaty after. He'll have the meat sweats, so that makes sense. Two packets of Froobs. Whatever that is. I think they're Fruit Jubes. I was going to say, I hope they're indigestion tablets.

36 packets of mini cheddars. Oh, yeah, delish. Eight fish cakes. See, he's getting variety now. It's good. A packet of strawberries. Just one. And one bunch of bananas.

See, I feel like he's done well. He's got a lot of his food groups in there. I mean, some of his majorities are out. Quantities, I mean. The sale went through and the supermarket... It did? Yeah, and the supermarket accepted it. I know we're dealing with robots here, but there should be

AI in place that goes, no one needs 990 pepperamis. Yeah, you're not me. But the dad intercepted the bill before the order arrived at the house so no food has gone to waste. Can you imagine the kid? He would have been waiting. He's like, where are those damn sausages? If I asked you,

who is the hottest Australian celebrity In your opinion Julia Gillard Got a thing for redheads No Sorry I didn't know there was a right answer She's a politician I don't think she's even a politician

Okay let me go back to the drawing board No you don't get to answer anymore It's Chris Hemsworth It's one of the Hemsworth brothers. Everyone knows that. It's not one of the Hemsworth brothers. Any of them. No, it's Chris. Or Liam.

It's Chris. Or Liam. Nah, it's Chris. Let's be honest, if you're ranking them, it's Chris. In terms of my mum's opinion, she thinks it's Liam. Really? Yeah. I think they're a bit of something for everyone. Yeah, look, you wouldn't kick either of them out of bed if they farted.

Put it that way. Definitely not. Clearly your type is Chris Hemsworth, though, which is who we're talking about this afternoon. He's revealed that there's a complicated reason why his wife of 10 years, actress Elsa Paddocky, hasn't changed her surname. She's not a Hemsworth?

No, she's not a Hemsworth. Okay, what's the complicated reason? So this is really grey area to me and it sounds like... She's hedging her bits? All BS. Oh, okay. So apparently, yeah, Hemsworth said that she was keen to adopt his last name, but there was passport issues that kept her from changing her maiden name.

What passport issues? Well, he said that he reckons she actually wanted to do it and then they were travelling back to America from Europe and it was a complication of passports and so on. That's what he said. Right, okay. Don't you reckon maybe when they first got married she was like, let me see how this pans out.

You know what Hollywood's like? She's like, yep, Summer Bay, fantastic. I mean, I'm hoping for more. So let's just put a tick in the Hemsworth maybe column. Well, would he already have been famous 10 years ago? Yeah Yeah, he would have been, hey? Yeah

Yeah, I think he would have already done a Thor movie No No? No, I don't think he was Hollywood famous He was only Aussie famous Are you sure? I don't know My Hemsworth timeline is not fantastic

But I understand it And also I understand the trend away from taking each other's names these days. I've always been a big advocate for this. For not? Yeah, for not taking the person's name. I mean, I'm not, nothing against people who do want to do that. But I just think it's a bit old fashioned.

My wife didn't take my last name. And what's the reason? Was it passport issues? Yeah, it was we were going through customs and she goes, I don't want to. No, she said it in a very very logical way. Yeah. She goes, I am

Lucy Slight. That is my name. That's my name. That's who I am. It's my identity. That's who I've been my whole life. Yeah. And she said I would feel strange to just instantly become another person because I signed a piece of paper. It is a big part of you. Well, I feel

like it is. And saying that, some people get great pride and joy from taking another person's name when they get married, which is absolutely fine as well. Yeah, so it's up to who you are and what you think. Yeah, but I get it. Yeah, I totally get that too. And that's where men in 2020 can't be butthurt

if their wife doesn't want to take your name. How about you take her name? Yeah, right? You can do that. Yeah, of course you can. Yeah, you can do that. Because I, to be honest, I would never expect someone to take my last name.

No. Like I'd feel like bad if they didn't want to. I'd be like, oh, you don't have to. It's also how it sounds. Like you've got to say the name out loud a whole lot. And the one that you're used to, the current one, probably flows really well, whereas the other one might sound a bit jarring. And if they really don't go well together, don't do it.

Well, what if they have a really bad last name? Yeah. And they might not have a bad last name on its own. You know, like Buttcrack or something. Yeah, it might not be bad on its own, but when they put it with your name, it might be, yeah. What if you marry Damien Buck Crack? I don't want to take the last name Buck Crack.

And your first name's Smelma. Yeah. You don't want to Smelma Buck Crack? You don't want to be Smelma Buck Crack. That's terrible. It doesn't work. You keep your last name. Do you think in those circumstances if the guy does have a last name,

like Buck Crack, or you know a name that's not great. And it's a great test of him as a man as to whether he ever expects you to take it. Well, it's an opportunity for him to get rid of it. Yeah. That's the way I see it. If he doesn't like it, then boom, you've got a fresh last name waiting for you. You can put a full stop on the butt crack era of your life. You know, and move on.

Yeah, why not? Wonderful. We want to ask you guys listening, 0800DIALZM, or you can text us on 9696. Did you not take your wife or your husband's last name? Yeah, and why? What was the reason? Passport issues? Or there could be a completely different one.

You can text or call right now. Bree and Clint. Chris Hemsworth has spoken out about why his wife of 10 years hasn't taken his last name of Hemsworth. She's kept her own maiden name and apparently it's due to passport complications. It's not. She just wanted her own name.

Yeah. There's nothing wrong with it. Like has Thor's feelings been hurt? Maybe a little bit. And so he's like, it was part of a sport problem. And also, you know what? She would get asked everywhere she went if her last name was Hemsworth.

Everywhere she went it would be... Do you know the Hemsworths? Are you one of them? You know what I mean? It would be so annoying. Are you married to one of the... Who? Which one? Chris? Or Liam? Or one? Chris or Liam? Oh, my God. Or the other one.

So we started talking about, you know, in this day and age, have you not taken your partner's last name when you got married? And what's the reason why? Robert's here. Hi, Robert. Hi, Rob. Robert. Hey, man.

How are you? Good. What's the deal with you, bro? Years ago, I got married back in probably 2008, and I asked her if she wanted to take the last name, and she said no, no, because I'm the only one in the family. Okay. And then I found out after that she cheated on me,

so I was lucky that she didn't take my last name, eh? Oh, Robert, this is not the stories we were hoping for. You should know me by now. You should know me by now. I'm Chocolate Man. Chocolate Man. You always keep it real with us. So your story is going to scare guys whose wife is saying

they don't want their last name. They're now going to go, oh, my God, is she cheating on me? What's the reason? Maybe she doesn't love me. Maybe she doesn't want to be with me forever. Yeah, right. Just make sure that when you do it, make sure you do it right for the right reasons, not for the wrong reasons.

Because that's what I found out that I thought I was getting into something great. Yeah. And then it turned out it was. Yeah. Sorry to hear that happen to you. It's not nice. Sorry, Rob. Can we ask what your last name is?

Pace. Oh, yeah. That's a perfectly good last name. There's not many of us around. No. Okay. Yeah. There's a lot of texts coming through on this.

Some really interesting ones too. Someone texts through and they said, I took my husband's last name and I've always regretted it. So now 17 years later, I'm changing it back. We are still happily married. Buzzy. Well, it didn't say happily. I added that in, but I'm assuming.

They're still married. They're still married. So they're still together. 17 years. I mean, good for you if it's weighing heavily on you. I think that's awesome and obviously, hopefully your partner is supportive

and they get it and they're like, yeah, that's fine. After 17 years, you don't need your partner's support. Yeah, to be honest, You just do whatever you want and if you tell them

over dinner one time, then that's a happy accident, I think. I think that's how marriage works. They probably would never find out. No. No, what are they going to do? Check your documentation at the border?

Catherine's here. Hi, Catherine. Hi, Catherine. Hi, how's it going? Good, thanks. Is it you that didn't change your last name? No, I did change my last name because my brother is also with a Catherine

and then they got married. So we had to change our name so there wasn't a double up. So you quite literally had the same name as your sister-in-law. Exactly the same name. Well, we both got engaged about the same time and then she set her wedding date because she's very organised. And then we had to jump in before them and get married first so that I could change my name so that I could then gift it over to her.

Wow. Because she wanted it. She had to come to... So, like, he had to go to her dad and ask for her hand in marriage. She had to come to you and ask for your last name in marriage. Yeah, there were a few jokes about it for sure. Did you want to give up your last name, Catherine? Yeah, I was

always going to anyway. It just, yeah. Why? Definitely. Well, it's really important to my partner. So, yeah. And like you said, with the whole name sounding thing, it totally sounded fine. Did you get a good one?

Yeah, we changed it to Stedman. Do you think you upgraded, Catherine? What was your own last name and what's your new last name? Yeah, tell us because we've got fresh ears. We'll hear them for the first time. My old name was Catherine Goodrick and my new name is Catherine Steadman Yeah, very good Oh, it's got some flow, doesn't it?

And Catherine Steadman, it almost sounds quite stately Like it sounds like you own land You're one of the Steadmans Or you started the hat company, Stetson Yeah, yeah, no, that's Stetson She's Steadman I mean, it's close enough Yeah, actually close enough

I'll own it. Yeah, totally. Good for you, Catherine. And when you get married for the second time, will you take their name? Yeah, well, I mean, there's a few to go. You can upgrade again, Catherine. You can upgrade again. With name and husband. You could marry Mr. Heigl. You never know. Well, yeah, you could just Facebook

stalk people to find their name. Yeah, go name shopping. And that's how you should always pick a partner, Catherine. Bree and Clint. Hey. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger.

That's Madonna coaching Britney Spears through a song like an absolute pro. It's called Express Yourself and it's the winner of Birthday Banger today. No, it's not called Express Yourself. No. It's called Express Yourself, and it's the winner of Birthday Banger today. No, it's not called Express Yourself. No. It's called Me Against the Music.

Me Against the Music. I reckon that song's a banger. This is Express Yourself. Yeah. This is just madge. Yeah. Britney's not on this one. Britney hadn't been born when this one came out.

You know what I hate? You know when Britney Spears and Madonna hooked up? Yeah. Yeah, on stage. I know what you're going to say. I hate this too. Everyone always forgets that she also hooked up with Christina Aguilera. Yeah.

She never gets a look in. I know. No, she never comes up in that conversation. In fact, most of the memes I've seen about it, Christina's been cropped out. She's chopped out. Yeah. Why?

I don't understand. Okay, here's a question for you. Britney was the biggest star. At the time, yeah, yeah, yeah. But my question is. Who would I choose? No. I've got to stop pre-ending

this, it's going to get me in trouble. Who had the better kiss with Madonna on the night? Who was best on ground? Ooh. See, I'm sure we watch it again and then decide. I need to re-watch it, yeah.

Because I only remember the Britney one. That's the only one that's sad in my mind. Oh, I remember both. Because that's the one that gets seen. It was an awakening. That's when you realise that you too are into older women.

Nickname origins. Where'd you get your bloody nickname? If you've got the best origin story, you're going to win free mobile fuel this afternoon. Pretty simple. Give us your nickname and we'll try and figure it out. Henry. Hello, Henry.

Hi, Henry. I mean, Henry's not an unusual name. I was going to call him Harry. Maybe I don't need glasses. Henry, what's your nickname? It's Teacup. Teacup. Oh, no.

My brain instantly goes to... Teabag. Oh, no. My brain instantly goes to... Is it teabag? Oh, no, but same area. I went urine related for some reason. I don't know why. Teacup. Teacup. Maybe he can't hold his liquor.

Yeah, teatime. That's why they call him teacup. Teacup, buttercup. Or he smashed one of his nan's really important teacups. Niche, but could be it. Do we go with that? Yeah, let's go with that. Teacup.

Do they call you Teacup because you smashed Nan's teacup? Nah, not at all. Oh. Oh. What are the odds? Why do they call you Teacup? Because I vomited all over the teacup rides at Dreamworld and the Gold Coast. Yeah, that's even better.

Wait, and how long have you had that nickname for? Oh, it's been at least five years now. Never go to Disneyland, okay? It's not made for you. Victoria's here. Hey, Vic. Hi. Hey.

What's your nickname? Tootsie. Tootsie? Tootsie. Tootsie. Tootsie. Doesn't help. Tootsie. Smell it. No,ie. Toopsie. Doesn't help. Toopsie.

Spell it. P-O-O-P-S-Y. No, no, wait, wait. P for Peter or T for Terry? Poopsie? T for Peter, double O, P for Peter, S-Y. Poopsie. Okay.

Floopsie. That's the confusion. The F was silent. You pooped yourself on the pirate ship at Rainbow's End. That's it. Do you reckon that's it? Poopsy? No, but it has to be

something to do with... It's definitely something about her pooing herself. It has to be fecally related. Yeah, surely. Victoria Poopsy. She's got mild IBS. Some came out.

Some came out. I think that's what it is. Some came out. Turtle poke. Poopsy, do they call you Poopsy because some came out? Kind of. Okay.

Tell us the story. I was utterly gazeboed one New Year's. Pardon? Absolutely gazeboed New Year's Eve a couple of years back. Yeah, that's a term apparently. I love that. I've never heard that before, but I'm on board, Poopsie. And I pooped myself, rolled around in it, in the middle of nowhere,

so the fire brigade got called out to hose me off. Okay. So you said kind of. We were spot on. We said some poop came out, and you said kind of. Yeah. And actually that was the whole thing. Poopsie, have you thought about changing your nickname?

Oh, I didn't give it to myself, did I? That's a very good point. Yeah, but you did poo yourself. Okay, wait there, Poopsie. It's a great story, but I'm not sure if we can reward that kind of behaviour. And Louise is here. Hi, Louise. Hi.

Hi. What's your nickname, Louise? Bikini. Bikini, okay. Bikini? So we've had vomit and poo in the nicknames already. Right, bikini. Can we go... Bikini. Bikini, okay. Bikini? So we've had Vomit and Poe in the nicknames already. Right, bikini. Can we go...

Bikini. She lost her bikini at the beach. Absolutely happens to all of us ladies. Her girls came out and she had to cover them with seaweed or something. And in the water she wanted to stay. Is that how you got it, Louise? Is that how you got your nickname? No.

Were we close? Quite the opposite. Why do they call you Bikini? So I used to play rugby at university and everyone would have a naked shower afterwards. But I was like, no way. So I was Bikini. I used to be the one wearing the bikini in the naked shower. Really? 20 years later, I play roller derby, and now it's turned into bikini brawler to make me tough. And do you shower naked now, bikini? Oh, well, now I'm the only one that is naked. It's full circle.

They call you bikini because it's ironic. We've got three really good nickname origins. I know. This is probably the best game we've ever had. Victoria, do you understand that it's not a good look for us to reward your gazeboed behaviour? Oh, I don't know. It wasn't intentional, you see, my behaviour.

Oh, she's pulling on my heartstrings. She pooed herself. She pooed. Yeah, but Henry threw up and Louise had some nudity. I like all of them. I like all of them too. They're all so good. I really like Louise's because it's kind of like a good story.

Louise, you win Nickname Origins. It's been really tough this week, but you win. Congratulations. Hooray. Now hit the showers, girl. Bree and Clint. Pretty excited about this next guest, Clint. I'd call him probably the most viral star during lockdown so far.

Okay. And you might have seen his videos online. They're absolutely going nuts. Some of the videos include End of Days Bolognese, The Sin Bin Soup, or The Crowd Goes Mild Curry. It's comedian Nat. Hello, mate. How you going?

How you going? How you going? I appreciate the applause You are You're welcome You mate are The world's most unlikely Celebrity chef And we're honoured to have you on our show

So thanks for coming on No worries Thanks for having me For those of you who aren't familiar With Nat's work You obviously haven't opened Your Facebook app In the last seven days

Here's a little bit Of what you can expect From his cooking shows What's going on champions? Guess what We Facebook app in the last seven days. Here's a little bit of what you can expect from his cooking shows. What's going on, champions? Guess what? We're back in the same place you were last time. Your f***ing house. Today we're cooking a dish that people f*** up all the time. The problem with bolognese is people put heaps of stupid shit in it.

Loads of shit isn't in bolognese. No zucchini, no eggplant, no hair. Your car isn't in it. I'm not in it. So let me just show you what's in bolognese. I love it, mate. I love that they're swearing because you keep it real. And I love that you can actually bloody cook too.

Yeah. Thanks. Yeah. I like to swear and cook at the same time. Who taught you how to cook? Where does your culinary skill set come from? A bit of everywhere. A bit of trial by fire.

A bit of my old man. My dad's a cook. So I've borrowed a few things from him. I've just dedicated like 35 kilos of weight to cooking, and I managed to put all that on, working out all these dishes pretty much, and away it's gone. The enemy of Nets, what I reckon, from what I can gather, and I've done a deep dive on your recipes, is jar sauce.

Jar sauce is enemy number one. Why do you hate, we're talking like the pasta sauce in a jar, the creamy stuff, the red stuff, whatever it is. That comes in a packet or a jar can f*** off, is that right, Nat? Yeah, it's pretty disgusting, yeah. Why? Where did your deep-seated hatred of the Dolmio grin come from? I don't know.

I suppose it's just settling for garbage that I don't really like. There's no reason why you can't cook yourself something unreal. You're just tipping this gluggy jar full of glue-looking trash into your food. It's like, why do that when you can, I don't know, it takes you 10 minutes to do it otherwise. I'd love to get some stats, mate. Have you really followed how much you've actually gone viral

and blown up over the last, like, month or so? What are some of the stats? How many followers have you gained? What are the views that you're getting? Oh, far out. Fair few. I think we've got, like, a lot of the videos are getting, they're in the millions.

I think one of them's hit, like, six and a half million. Far out. I think they're getting at least three or four million views each of the videos, and the followers are going bloody nuts. I think we're doing close to 750,000 more followers, about 80,000 on YouTube. Are you happy to be known as a food influencer? Oh, yes and no.

It comes with certain connotations, doesn't it? Food influencers are pretty great. Yeah, but you are. You are effectively influencing the way that people eat. It comes with certain connotations, doesn't it? The word influencer is pretty gross. Yeah, but you are. You are effectively influencing the way that people eat. So can you accept that you are a food influencer? It's hard to swallow, but I'll take it for now. Okay, good.

I think in a good way, though. I think in a good way, too. You're making people cook healthy food, so it's good. But as an influencer, it's important to maintain integrity. So I want to test your integrity right now with just a quick roll-away, if that's okay. Okay. So you're going to hear your phone ring and I just need you to pick it up, okay? And then we'll just take it. You'll be you in this role play as well. That's important to know. Okay, I'm good at that. Yeah.

Here we go. Bep, how you going? Hello, is that Nat from Nat's What I Reckon viral cooking show? Yeah, quite possibly. Hi, it's Jeremy Dolmio here from the Dolmio Foods Company. How are you? How are you, mate? Yeah, good. Yeah, I'm all right.

We love your stuff. We haven't watched any of it, but we've heard that it's very good and we think that you're the spokesperson we need. We're prepared to offer you $150,000 Australian dollars to be the spokesperson for our pasta sauce. No, no, thank you.

He's passed! He's bloody passed! I'll tell you what. $150,000? You wouldn't take it? Nah, nah. You can't be that person that says no. No, you can't. Not a chance, no. You can't be that person that says how much you hate it

and then turn around and endorse it, can you, Nat? No, I don't think so. I think sometimes, you know, in some respects, selling out is waking up, but not in this instance, I don't think. All right, well, make sure you keep doing what you're doing because you're providing a lot of enjoyment and education for people in lockdown. We bloody love it, mate. Thank you for talking to us.

Brie and Clint. Look, you've done very well New Zealand. We're very proud of you. Brie and Clint. Look, you've done very well, New Zealand. We're very proud of you. Brie, myself, Jacinda, your mother, your father. We're proud. Mr. Bloomfield, we're all very proud of you. Daddy Thick Snack. No, he's not Daddy Thick Snack.

Yeah, but he's the new Daddy Thick Snack. No, Daddy Thick Snack's Andrew Little. That doesn't change. Daddy Bloomfield is a different daddy. So what would you call him then? Daddy Thin Snack. No, Daddy Thick Snack's Andrew Little. That doesn't change. Daddy Bloomfield is a different daddy, okay? So what would you call him then? Daddy Thin Snack. He's not thick. Yeah, he'd be Daddy Thin Snack.

Daddy Thin Snack. Yeah, Daddy Light and Tasty. Daddy Light and Tasty, definitely. Look, we're all proud of you for what you've done so far. But yesterday there were a few slip-ups. And I feel as a family we need to come together and just have a bit of a korero, a bit of a heart-to-heart and just go,

what are you thinking? What are you thinking? Gee, we've done so well and you're going to throw it all down the bloody toilet over some goddamn takeaways? As my dad would say, you're a bloody idiot.

Pull your head in, New Zealand. There are pictures going viral of people congregating outside a certain vehicle-themed burger restaurant, which we don't blame the restaurant, so it's important to think about that too. They were overwhelmed. But I don't think it's fair to dwell on burger fuel specifically

because I've now seen pictures of people doing it outside. Oh, it's everywhere. Everywhere. There's a bunch of things happening. Yeah. People just standing in large groups waiting for their takeaways. And we get it.

I know you're hungry. Okay, I know you're hungry. I know you're sick of your partner's cooking. Not me, I'm very happy. But you, I know you're sick of your partner's cooking. It's not what you said. I'll fair. No, I'm...

You said that KFC was delicious yesterday. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I get it, OK? The time is now, but you've got to do better than that. This is Jacinda speaking at the one o'clock... Sorry, we're not on first-name basis. This is the Prime Minister speaking at the 1pm briefing today. I asked a couple of questions this morning,

particularly of some of the images I've seen of areas, and there were a couple of persistent photos that lingered around from some places in particular. And I've been told that MB and Health have actively reached out to some of those businesses to make sure that they are working with them on the ground to improve their practices to stop congregation at their place of business. Get to the point. Say what you mean. I'm really disappointed. That's all you need to say.

All parents know the line. You just need to look down the camera and go, I'm really disappointed. I've just had the best idea. You know what will stop this? Might take up a bit of time, but I feel like she's up for the challenge. I think if Jacinda Ardern

personally Facebook inboxed every person that did something bad being like you're grounded. And she grounded, she actually grounded people. Because she can. Because she can. I feel like

that could work. Your ankle bracelet's in the mail. It would be the only time ever where the Prime Minister was grounding people, like her kids technically, to stay home. Yeah, that could work. The thing is, she grounded us for four weeks. That's what we did.

And then the day she lets us out of our room, we go and do that. We all go have a ciggy down at the park. I know, and I get it. The temptation is strong. I know. That nicotine. I know, right?

I was tempted just to stand outside my local pub, my favourite bar, and just BYO. Have a drink. You know, just to feel some semblance of normality, but we're not there yet. So pull your head in, New Zealand. That's the message. Pull your bloody head in, okay?

Because if you don't, Jacinda's going to show up to your house. Smack your bottom. She's going to give you a smack bottom. And Daddy Thinsnack will not stop her. He'll watch. And he won't smack you, and that might be even worse. Dr. Daddy Thinsnack. Yes, please.

It's time for a round of That Don't Impress Me Much. Okay. So you're Brad Pitt. She wasn't impressed by Brad Pitt. Back in the day. Back in the day. She is now. So what doesn't impress you?

We'll do a quick round the room and get it off our chest. Who would like to kick us off this afternoon? Ben. Who would like to? You'd like Ben to go first? Producer Ben, I think. You're volunteering Ben? Yeah, I am.

Ben, are you ready? Yeah. You ready to tell us what don't impress you? Yeah, okay, mate. Go on. Okay, cool. How will you think you're special?

How will you think you're something else? Okay. I shaved all my hair and now I get cold. Is that true? Yeah. It is true. We're going into winter.

I know, it's a bad idea. Don't do it if you're thinking of it. I shaved my nose hairs yesterday and I feel like the air is colder up there. It probably is. It feels like there's more getting in there. Yeah. Okay, I want to have got this. Okay, your turn.

Okay. So you give me a discount code after I've checked out? That don't cost me much. That sucks. It sucks. I bought Ben's birthday present, belated birthday present the other day, and after I'd purchased it,

they offered me a 20% discount. It hurts, doesn't it? I could have pocketed that money because we all went in three ways on it. I could have kept that money for myself and not told you guys. Obviously, yeah, well... I could have saved,

I could have saved like 50 bucks. Now we know the real Clintus Roberts. Everyone's face is dropped. They're like, whoa. It wouldn't have changed for you. You wouldn't have known about it. Nothing would have changed for you. Wait, you'd the real Clinton Roberts. Everyone's face is dropped. They're like, whoa. It wouldn't have changed for you. You wouldn't have known about it. Nothing would have changed for you. Wait, you'd do that?

One of us would have got rich. Our friendship would have changed. Your jealousy is really showing through at the moment. What, are you stealing money? Okay, Ellie's up. Here she comes. All right. Okay, so the driver's dropping another food delivery along the way and now my chips are we cold?

You're on a bike? You're on a bike? I'm like, where is this other delivery? Who are they to you? Why are they so special? Yeah, why do they get to go first? Amen. Okay, finally for that don't impress on me much, here comes Brie.

How well you think you're special. How well you think you're something else. I always do that. Well done. That don't impress me much. You know the worst thing? Mine wasn't very good anyway, to be honest. It was pretty average.

I do that every damn time. We're very shortly going to roll into our morale boosting request today. Love song dedications to Dr. Andrew Bloomfield. Or as we're calling him, Dr. Thinsnack. Dr. Daddy Thinsnack, yeah. There's some weird ones that I'd like to replace. Like some people suggesting 303, don't trust a ho. Probably not. I mean, good advice in people suggesting 303, don't trust a ho. Probably not. I mean, good advice in the current climate.

You can't trust anybody. We need to act like we all have COVID. But I need some more suggestions to 9696. Text them in. Songs that we could play as our morale boosting request. But before that, you were rudely cut off before during that don't impress a man match. Oh no, now I'm even more nervous that I'm going to do it again.

And I know you're upset, so we're going to do a special version just for you. What's the special version? No, just one where it's only you who does it. Just me? I get another chance? Yeah, we all did ours and you get a turn. Oh, no.

But I must warn you that you only get one chance to get it right, okay? Okay. You had plenty of time to practice. You invented the segment. Yeah, well, that's why I'm so disappointed in myself. For those who haven't heard it, basically, Shania comes on and she leaves room for us to say what don't impress us much. Brig messed it up quite badly before.

I do every week. This is a shot at redemption, okay? This is like Dan Carter at the 2015 World Cup. It's your last shot, So she goes, okay? So? Don't overthink it. Is that the last thing she says? Don't overthink it, okay?

Here we go. What does she say? What does she say? I'm chucking you in. I'm chucking you in. Okay. So you took a picture of your first coffee takeaway after five weeks. Well done, mate.

Well done. Thank you, guys. Yeah, it was close. That long. Delayed. And also wasn't really that good. Wasn't worth it, was it? She's not wrong.

What's the song we're playing For the morale Motion request God damn it What happened to you Brie and Clint Everybody needs to relax Okay Everyone makes mistakes

Like how Brie Messed up the That don't impress me much I did mess it up Everybody makes mistakes And can I say That everybody on this team Is equally as guilty

Like the time you called Why Why are you putting us in it Because I've spent the last 15 minutes referring to one of the most important people in the country by the wrong name and none of you have picked up on it.

Well, I was calling him Dr. Daddy Thinsnack. So you were calling him Andrew Bloomfield. So I was concentrating on the name that I was calling him. Don't laugh. You didn't pick up on it either. I didn't, no. I didn't. Ashley Bloomfield. Let's be real. I was calling him. Don't laugh. You didn't pick up on it either. I didn't, no. I didn't.

Ashley Bloomfield. Let's be real. They weren't listening. That's true. Ashley Bloomfield. Ashley Bloomfield. Someone texted us and said, hey, Clifford and Bianca. It's Dr. Ashley Bloomfield, not Andrew.

I got him confused with Andrew Little. No, good joke from them. Whoever texts that through, I'll pay that joke. Anyway, we're looking for a request befitting a man of his stature. A love song dedication. Yes. Bree said she found out what his actual favourite love song is. Oh, yeah.

Have you still not looked it up? We suck. Oh, God. As a team, we suck. Okay, we suck. Anyway, I've got plenty of options, so I don't even need it. Okay. Which of these, as suggested by you, is the correct morale-boosting love song for Andrew...

Oh, damn it. Ashley... Just call him Daddy Thinsnack. For Daddy Thinsnack. Yeah, see, and you don't get it wrong. Is it George Michael? And Careless Whisper. Is this the song that we play to dedicate to him

and to boost the mood of the nation? It is very sensual, isn't it? Very sensual. Suits him. Or is it Celine Dion? I mean, it's very heteronormative. And you are my man I mean, it's very heteronormative. You could be a man singing to Dr. Ashley Bloomfield.

Yeah. In which case, you'd need to be, Because I'm your man And you are my man But let's not get bogged down in details. No, no, no. It still works. Maybe that's a good option.

Is it this song? Because the rain's down in Africa No, no, no. It still works. Maybe that's a good option. Is it this song? I don't know why, but I think it is. It does sound like him. It does, eh? If I know Dr. Daddy Thinsnack. Yeah. And then two outside chances. Is it Khalees?

Oh, it's not. Is it Khalees? It's not. Is it Bloomfield? Doesn't make sense. Why not? So your milkshake. Whose milkshake is it? His milkshake.

Why is he giving out milkshakes? Because he's a lovely guy. Okay. Maybe it's that. Or is it this song here? What is this? This was the winner of American Idol, Fantasia. Yeah, no, it's this. Slow up, listen.

I found out what his favourite love song is. What is it? So he said that a particular Eric Clapton song called Wonderful Tonight. Oh, yeah, that's a beautiful song. It means a lot to him when he started dating his wife. I said, darling, you look wonderful. I just read that. I mean, I assumed, but.

Is it Toto? Is it Africa? I feel like. I think it's Africa. I think read that. I mean, I assumed, but. Is it Toto? Is it Africa? I feel like. I think it's Africa. I think that's more than appropriate, right? It's just a great song. It is a great song. So Doctor, let's just call him Doctor.

Doctor, you're doing a great job. No, let's call him Daddy Doctor. Daddy Doctor. Yeah, that's good. Daddy Doctor, Andrew Ashley Bloomfield Thinsnack. Keep up the good work. The whole country is proud of you. And this is your special song.

Brian Clint, hit him. I hear the drums echoing tonight. And she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation. Thank you. I stopped to know that along the way Hoping to find some old forgotten words Or ancient melodies He turned to me as if to say Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you Gotta take the life to take me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I've left the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never did We'll be right back. They grow restless longing for some solitary company I know that I must do what's right Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the seven gate I seek to cure what's deep inside Frightened of this thing that I've become. Gonna take a lot to take me away from you. There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do.

I guess the rain's down in Africa. Gonna take some time to do the things we never did. Great voice is waiting after you Gonna take the life to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa I bless the rains down in Africa. I bless the rains down in Africa. I bless the rains down in Africa.

I bless the rains down in Africa. Gonna take some time to do the things you never did. ZM Bree and Clint Bingo That's Toto in Africa with a special dedication to our favourite Director of Health Dr Ashley Bloomfield.

There you go. Cometh the man, cometh the hour. Oh, don't say that. You know what I'm saying? No, don't. We really appreciate you and everything that you're doing. We do appreciate it. There's an NFL draftee by the name of Justin Rojwasa.

I mean, you know him. He's my favourite guy in the NFL Yeah He plays for the Hawks No, well, he's in the draft Oh, I like the draft Anyway, he's copped a lot of backlash lately For a controversial arm tattoo on his forearm Right

Cock and balls? No, not the cock and balls But, I i mean good option for your first tattoo if you want controversial yeah there's not much more controversial than visible cock and balls yeah no when he was 18 so he's 23 now but when he was 18 he got a tattoo um done on his forearm and uh people are now calling him certain things because of the meaning behind this particular tattoo. Okay, talk me through the tattoo. So essentially it's like a circle and it's on his forearm.

It's got a few, I think it's got some stars in it. But anyway, essentially this particular tattoo that he's got is associated with a right-wing militia group called the Three Percenters. Oh, Jesus. So essentially a white supremacists yeah which he is not okay so he has um since come out and said that he didn't know that uh when he got the tattoo when he was 18 yeah so whip it off no harm no foul right yeah right so at first he said he was going to cover the tattoo and then now he Yeah, right. So at first he said he was going to cover the tattoo,

and then now he's copped backlash for that, and now he said he's going to go through the gruelling 12, 13, 14 sessions to get it removed. If that's what it means, then you have to, right? Yeah. Of course. Of course. You need to go through the pain of getting it removed. This is the issue with young people in the late 90s and 2000s, before our generation,

who were all getting Asian calligraphy, Chinese symbols and stuff. You didn't know what it meant. You know a lot of the time. You just thought it looked cool. Apparently, for a laugh, some of the tattooists just put chicken soup, like the symbols that mean chicken soup. Yeah, and you know what? If you're not smart enough to know the like the symbols that mean chicken soup. Yeah. And you know what? If you're not smart enough to know the difference.

How are you going to know? That's your problem. Yeah. You know? Well, how would you know? How would? Well, these days when you get a friend, Chinese friend. Well, true.

They probably tell you what it means. But then it's very personal. Your Chinese friend might just look at it and go, well, it's far from me to judge. Then they clearly just love chicken soup. You know? Well, maybe that's what they think. Me, especially to you, I won't criticize it. Yeah, pretty much.

But anyway, a good reminder, always know exactly what you're getting tattooed. Yeah. Upload it to Google or something and I don't know. Just do your checks, whatever you have to do. Yeah, put it on Facebook and go, is this racist? I'm about to get it tattooed on my body. And don't do it after you get it tattooed. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio.

This is The Latest. Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Big news, another one of the One Direction boys is set to have a baby. And to tell us more about that, Dean McCarthy live from California. Hi, Dean. Hello, Dean. Hi, guys. I bring you some exciting baby news tonight.

Zayn Malik, the hot one from One Direction, and Gigi Hadid, the hot one from God, from heaven. The two of them, the on and off again couple, are finally having a baby. But I'm just going to say it. Now, you know, I'm just going to say what everyone's wondering and fearing. We're all scared. You know sometimes how two hot people don't actually have hot kids?

Oh, my God. That's terrible. That's not what we're scared about. Wow. You were worried. You were. I know what you're saying. Is it the right mix of hotness?

You know? It might be too much. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Or it could be too much. Yeah, too much. Yeah. Hotness overload. know? Might be too much. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Or you could be too much. Yeah, too much. Hotness overload. The expectations

could be too high. Like she's basically going to have the baby on the Victoria's Secret runway. Pretty much. Because it's going to be born into either a boy band, girl band

or a modelling career. Dean, what I'm really thinking is was this baby conceived in lockdown? It must have been because, well, she's 20. Oh, no. No. Just outside.

I've just done the research on the ages. Not that it matters. I mean, you can have a kid whenever you like. Yeah, how old is Gigi? Gigi is 25 years old. Okay. And Zane's 27 years old. Right.

So they're young parents. They're quite young. Especially by celebrity standards. But, yeah, there isn't much else to do at the moment, so you might as well. Just get into it. We did workshop some lockdown baby names for people. They can take some of them. Pandemica

was a very popular one on our show. And also Germ Mimer was popular. So if you see them, just throw those names out there. Drop them in, see how they go. Yeah. How many One Direction boys have got kids now? Jermimer Hadid.

Jermimer Hadid. It's got a ring to it. So there's Zayn now who's having a baby. Yeah, a few of them. Liam. Liam's got a baby, yeah. Harry doesn't. Harry doesn't have a baby.
