Hi everybody and welcome to the Brie and Clint podcast.
Hello guys.
Oh look who decided to show up.
Sorry.
Good to be here though.
Good to be here.
What are you eating?
Gum.
Oh.
I chew a lot of gum.
Yeah, I thought you meant to offer, isn't that good?
Do you want some gum?
No, not now.
Oh.
Can I tell the Alan story in the podcast intro about the sheets?
Yeah.
Is that for public consumption?
Yeah, you can tell the story.
Tell everybody the nice thing that your flatmate Alan did for you
because you've been away for like five days.
Big gay gorgeous Al.
The producers didn't hear this story either, I don't think.
I got home last night from being away for five days down the South Island
and Alan picked me up from the airport and then we get home
and just before I walked into my room, why, what's happened?
What happened?
Why is producer Ben looking weird?
Anyway, just before I walked into my room, Alan goes, oh, I washed all your sheets and
changed them for you and I washed your towels as well, the dirty ones.
He is such a good friend to you.
What a lovely, considerate human being.
Unless he's had sex in my bed.
There we go.
There we go. There we go. So that's what I was going to ask you guys
does that sound like the actions of a lovely flatmate or a guilty man
either way
but I know Ellen and I know Brie
and I know how much Ellen loves Brie
and I know how good your relationship is so I think he did it genuinely
I also know Ellen
and I know
he's a randy
seadog and then I thought nah but. He loves the sex. I know he's a randy, randy sea dog.
He loves the sex.
And then I thought, nah, but if that was the case,
he wouldn't have washed my towels.
But then I was like, has he just washed my towels
so he's made it look less like it was just the sex?
Or was the wild session so involved that it needed a towel as well?
Yeah.
Are you opposed to me coming around with one of those special lights
and looking at the
surfaces of the walls?
We should.
See if there's
any spatter.
Actually,
I was going to say
let's not do that.
Let it.
Not to do that.
Especially not in the shower.
I'll get in there
with a DNA kit
and I'll be swabbing
the walls like
wait,
this is pasta sauce.
Definitely my room.
Yep.
Definitely my room. Here, definitely my room.
Here's the podcast, everybody.
Enjoy.
Enjoy it.
ZM.
Let's go.
Now let me see you dance.
ZM's Brie and Clint.
Bam.
Brie is joining us today live from Kadrona Ski Field.
We're very lucky.
What's up, guys?
Good to be here.
Just getting the shred on.
Just hitting those sweet runs.
Some good pow.
Cowabunga.
Some good pow-pow up on Kadrona today.
Mate, could you just stop your run for just a second?
Just so we can...
Thank you.
It was just really interfering with the radio show.
Is that better?
Yeah, that's much better.
Okay, cool.
Very good.
Cool.
You know what it's like.
Oh, look, an undercover police officer.
Ooh.
What's he doing here?
He's got a thing on that says police.
Yeah, but he's also, he's wearing a suit uniform and then he's got the police
So you mean a half-uniform. He's half
undercover. He's not
undercover. That is the complete opposite.
I'll give him a tip if he's got
ZM on the car. He's just getting in the car.
Put the stab-proof vest
underneath your business shirt if you want to be
undercover. If you put it over the
shirt, it's very obvious that you're a police officer.
You're smart. Also, the handcuffs hanging off
your belt are a dead giveaway.
Oh, he could just be kinky. And the taser.
And the pepper spray. Yep, that
all could be... I'm starting to think he's not that
undercover, actually. He's into interesting
things. Yeah, he's into kinky stuff, plus
he likes putting some pepper on his salad.
Okay, we're going to start the show with a really great prize.
We've got a $500 New World voucher to give away.
If you can seduce us and pick us up with your go-to meal.
Yeah, this is awesome.
You can call now 0800DIALZM
and you have to describe your go-to meal
that you would cook for us to pick us up.
Easy as that. Pretty simple. Make it romantic.
Make it delicious. And I'm going to
say make it hearty today. That's what I'm in the mood
for. I love a sauce. You like
something saucy? I love a saucy meal.
There's the key to our hearts, okay? Because
we're picking the winner out of this. The best meal is going
to take that $500 New World voucher.
Saucy and hearty
is the type of meal
you want to go for.
And we'll find a winner next.
Bree and Clint, ZM.
I don't feel so...
Bree and Clint,
the podcast.
ZM.
Bree and Clint's
go-to
with New World.
This is cool.
Every week,
we're giving you the chance
to pick us up
with your go-to meal
because New World
has a range of go-to recipes
in-store and online that you can pick up.
There's a really good one on their website that I saw on their ad for a noodle.
The fish curry?
No, the noodle soup.
Oh, you like that one?
I'm going to actually do these because with Lucy being,
having just had, we've got our baby and stuff,
I'm in charge of cooking now and we are rapidly running out of frozen meals
that I managed to store up that she cooked from before the baby was born. So I'm looking for easy solutions,
all right? Desperately. And maybe some inspiration here as well. We've got three people.
Best idea today is going to win a $500 New World voucher and everybody who takes part will also
score a $20 New World voucher just for playing. Everyone's a winner.
Hi, Jenna. Hi, Jenna.
Hey, how you going? Good, thank you. What's your go-to
meal that you would cook up for Clint
and I to impress us?
Sure. So funnily enough, we're having this for dinner
tonight. It is southern fried
chicken burgers. So what you do
is you marinate the chicken
in buttermilk and that makes it tender
and that. But then you coat it in flour
and egg and then crushed
cornflakes and that crisps up amazing. And quite often, you can do it in wraps and that. But then you coat it in flour and egg and then crushed cornflakes and it crisps up
amazing. And quite often, you can do it
in wraps and that, but then we always,
it's our family favourite
and it won the heart of my
husband. But then we do like caramelised
saucy onions and we
do like a homemade hickory sauce.
And you said you're having this tonight?
Yeah, we're having it for tonight. So where do you live?
Are you saying this is the meal that convinced your husband to marry you?
That's a big deal.
Yeah, pretty much.
Yeah.
And it's a good summer thing or winter.
That's going to be hard to go past for sure.
Let's see what else we've got.
Corin, hi.
Hi.
I'm sitting here with my daughter.
We're so excited.
We love Bruin Clint. So I'll just say that first. What's your daughter's name with my daughter. We're so excited. We love Bruin Clints.
I'll just say that first.
What's your daughter's name?
We'll give her a shout out.
Her name's Mercy.
Mercy.
Shout out to Mercy.
Shout out, Mercy.
Okay, Corinne, let's win you a New World voucher.
What are you going to cook for us?
What's your go-to?
Okay, so we're Samoans.
So I've adapted kind of Samoan old-style cooking,
and I make a seafood coconut cream curry.
Oh.
And I serve it with garlic bread, and I know you love garlic bread.
Oh, Red, stop it.
A traditional Samoan garlic bread.
Yes.
No, no.
Cooked in an umu.
Oh, imagine.
Yeah, cooked in an umu.
Imagine scooping up the soup with the garlic bread, the curry and the sauce.
Yeah.
I know, it's so good.
And it's kind of a sweet curry, so I just put mussels, prawns, anything that I have,
I put it in with garlic and a bit of brown sugar and coconut cream.
Okay, all right.
And cook it.
All right, Corinne.
One more person gets to go.
Hi, Annabelle.
Hi, Annabelle.
Hi. The bar's really high this week, but what are you going to pick to go. Hi, Annabelle. Hi, Annabelle. Hi.
The bar's really high this week, but what are you going to pick us up with?
Real good this week.
What's your go-to?
Okay, so I actually picked up my partner with this meal.
It was the first meal I ever cooked when I first met him.
It is a peppered, seared lamb rack with garlic green Green Beans and Seasonal Roasted Veg.
God damn it, what?
All of them so good.
You wonderful woman.
I know, right?
Oh my God.
I'd marry you as well.
Me too.
Oh, okay.
Okay, wait there.
We've got a hard decision.
We've got Southern Fried Chicken Burgers,
Salmon Seafood Curry and Garlic Bread
or Pippered Seared Lamb Rack. Only one of these people is the go-to for today and burgers, salmon, seafood, curry, and garlic bread, or peppered seared lamb rack.
Only one of these people is the go-to for today,
and only one of them can have the $500 New World voucher.
What is your stomach telling you?
Not your heart, not your head, but your stomach.
Oh, damn.
I know.
You know me.
I'm so excited.
Because I think we're on the same page.
I think we are because my stomach did that butterfly thing
when Corinne told me about that seafood curry and the garlic bread.
Oh, no, she's exploded.
Corinne, you've got the $500 New World voucher.
Oh, my God.
I don't want to hear this thing.
Oh, you won this.
Shout out to you and Mercy.
Thank you for your idea.
We've got a $500 New World voucher for you guys.
We love you guys.
Oh my God.
Thank you so much.
Stick around, Jenna and Annabelle as well.
We've got a New World voucher for you guys as well.
Everyone's a winner.
Every Wednesday we do this.
It's with New World's Go-To Range.
You can pick up everything you need tonight from New World
and you can get the freshest ingredients online as well.
When you were a kid, did you ever dream about being a paleontologist
or like digging up a dinosaur fossil?
Was that ever something you wanted to do?
No.
Was that a boy thing?
No, I don't think it's a boy thing.
It's just not your thing?
It's just not my thing.
We used to dig around in the backyard
and we always had dreams that we'd find a triceratops.
We never did and we ruined part of that we'd find a triceratops. We never did.
And we ruined part of our driveway.
But that's okay.
Because other people are living our dream at the moment.
Remember last week in New Zealand they discovered the mega parrot?
Yeah, what'd they call it?
Was it Zeus?
I don't know.
Oh, yeah, I think they named him.
Yeah.
I've just been calling him mega parrot.
Yeah, mega parrot. We've got another bird this week. It've just been calling him Mega Parrot. Yeah, Mega Parrot.
We've got another bird this week.
He's like big as a human, right?
Yeah, half his size.
Which is big for a parrot.
That's huge.
This week, another big bird.
Congratulations, New Zealand, by the way.
Oh, yes.
You're doing very, very well.
This week, we have for ourselves a giant penguin that's been discovered in North Canterbury.
Wait, so there was...
Is there penguins in New Zealand?
Yeah.
Yeah, there's penguins in Wellington. I guess it's cold enough.
There's penguins.
Yeah, there's heaps of penguins around.
Little blue penguins, they're super cute.
There's a case of little blue penguins on the Wellington waterfront the other week
that were crossing the main road to go to the St. Pierre's Sushi.
They do love their sushi if I know penguins.
That's a real story.
They wanted the salmon,
apparently.
Really?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And they had to get
these penguins and take them
because they're going to
get run over by cars.
Anyway, we're getting
distracted from this new
gigantic, forget little
blue penguins,
we have a giant penguin.
So they found, obviously,
bones.
Oh yeah, it's dead, yeah.
Yeah.
It existed in New Zealand
between 66 and 56 million
years ago.
Oh, so I thought you were going to say, like, not that long ago.
56 years ago?
Yeah.
Well, that doesn't make sense now, does it?
No.
Yeah, that's a long time ago.
Yeah, it's prehistoric.
But this penguin, which was found in Waipara in North Canterbury,
stood at 1.6 metres tall.
That's big penguin. Wow.
Or, if you operate in feet, like I do
because I don't know how tall people are. Same.
5 foot 2.
So, tall penguin,
relatively average
short human. Yeah.
But, considering it's 56
million years old. But, if that penguin
were to dress up as a human
He could get away with it
If any penguin was ever going to fool you into thinking it was a person
They'd go tuxedo, wouldn't they?
You'd go tuxedo, top hat, monocle
I'd fall for that
Penguin suit, you'd go for a penguin suit, wouldn't you?
It's this penguin, this is the one
Where did you get that suit? I love it
Got it from Barker's actually
Really? How much was it? Penguin, this is the one. Where did you get that suit? I love it. Got it from Barker's, actually.
Really?
How much was it?
Okay, this conversation's over.
You need to brush your teeth.
It smells like fish.
Let's get the latest with Dean McCarthy.
I've got to speak quietly because he's backstage at America's Got Talent at the moment.
Dean, are you there?
Hey, guys.
Yeah, I'm here.
I'm backstage at America's Got Talent.
So we're kind of whispering.
It's all going down here at the Dolby Theatre,
which is the same place that they have the actual Oscars.
So it's very exciting.
Is it the host of America's Got Talent at the moment,
that guy that sings the Vanessa Carlton song in White Chicks.
Terry Crews.
Terry Crews.
Terry Crews.
What's he like?
He's such a nice guy.
He's huge.
He's like a big tree.
He's enormous.
He used to be
an professional football player,
right?
Did he?
Yeah.
Yeah, hilarious.
And he's in Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
Yep.
Everyone remembers him
for something different.
You remember him
for the White Girls song.
Tell us, Dean,
what's going on with Katy Perry? This story is blowing up at the song. Tell us, Dean, what's going on
with Katy Perry?
This story is blowing up
at the moment.
Tell us what she's been
accused of, first of all,
and where the story's at.
Yeah, here's what's
happened overnight.
So, Katy Perry,
obviously one of her
biggest smash hits
was the song
Teenage Dream
and you may remember
the music video.
No, I'm one of the press
and I'm on an interview.
Yeah.
Guys, I'm so sorry.
One second,
I'm just getting hassled.
That's alright. Oh my God. Is just getting hassled. That's all right.
Oh, my God.
Is he getting taken out by security?
Is he getting taken out by Terry Crews?
Terry Crews comes over.
He's like, come on, mate.
Terry Crews is the host and he is security for the show.
That's how you cut costs in 2019.
Yeah, smart.
Are you in a safe place now, Dean?
Can you talk?
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
So back to Katy Perry, Teenage Dream music video.
Teenage Dream music video, we've all seen it.
It's probably been viewed like 300 million times online
or something like that.
The guy in the music video, you might remember him.
They were cruising along in a convertible,
living their best life, all romantic.
He has now accused Katy Perry, right,
of actually assaulting him at a party by exposing him.
I'll leave it at that if you want to kind of go there.
By exposing him, literally like pulling his pants open in front of a whole group of people.
And he's accusing her of literally belittling him, as he said on his social media post.
And also that he only got paid $650 for the actual music video shoot.
So not a lot of money for something that was obviously an international hit
and, of course, has been viewed hundreds of millions of times.
Right, so I thought it was something that happened on the shoot of the music video.
So it was at a party afterwards, he's alleging.
It's weird that it's him because I didn't know who it was until now.
For some reason, that guy has burned into my memory.
I know exactly who you're talking about.
Good-looking rooster.
Really good looking guy.
He's in there,
he's just wearing jeans,
no shirt,
got all the abs going on.
They get in the swimming pool.
Remember that all
in the swimming pool
together at the end?
And now he's coming out
and saying that Katy Perry,
wow,
it's really interesting
because I don't think
we've seen many cases
go the other way
where a male has accused
a female of something like this
and I guess it's part of
the movement at the moment
of everybody being held accountable.
But Katie might be one of the first ones
from the female camp going that way, right?
Yeah.
And let's not forget, of course,
I'm backstage at America's Got Talent.
Terry Crews, the host of America's Got Talent,
obviously accused a man of assaulting him
at a Hollywood party a few years ago as well.
Yeah.
An executive, some big film executive,
grabbed him. That's right. And that was considered really brave when he did ago as well. Yeah. An executive, some big film executive grabbed him.
That's right.
And that was considered
really brave
when he did that as well
because he's a straight guy
and he was assaulted
by a man
and he had to come out
and say,
and it was the first time
someone revealed
some of that.
God,
interesting times
that we're living in,
isn't it?
Yeah.
Like it,
people say,
oh,
it's risky,
you can't do anything.
But if you're not doing
anything bad,
then you're still
going to be sweet as. That's the thing I think you've got to remember at the end of the day. You just can't be an absolute, you can't do anything. But if you're not doing anything bad, then you're still going to be sweet as.
That's the thing I think you've got to remember at the end of the day.
You just can't be an absolute piece of work.
If you're worried, I've got some rock solid advice for you.
Don't sexually assault anyone.
Harry Weinstein.
Right on.
I'm talking to you.
That is Dean McCarthy.
We'll let you get back to America's Got Talent.
Thank you for taking our call and possibly losing your job on America's Got Talent.
Thanks, Dean.
Bye, guys.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast. Do you hate your job on America's Got Talent. Thanks, Dean. Bye, guys. ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
Do you hate your job?
Like, are you sitting there right now going,
God, I hate this job?
Are you?
Oh.
You don't even turn my mic on.
I don't even turn you on.
No wonder you hate your job.
I'm just sitting here trying to drown you out.
I was drowned out by you.
Well, you haven't been here for two days.
I haven't even had to turn that microphone on.
What, so you forget about me in two days?
God, I feel sorry for your wife, Lucy.
Saving power on your microphone, not even running it.
That's all it takes, two days.
I've got a new job opportunity that if you're that grumpy, you can take.
And this will appeal to you.
It's one of those ones that they do and there's only one job
and they're going to get applications from all over the world.
And yes, arguably, it's more of a PR stunt than a job.
And yes, you're highly likely to ever get the job.
But does that mean I'm not going to talk about it?
No, it doesn't because I'm going to tell you about it right now.
You fell for it.
Okay.
It's a bacon internship.
There is a company in the United States who goes by the name of Farmer Boys.
They're a West Coast US burger franchise.
Right.
And they specialize in bacon.
And they want to pay someone $1,000 to go and work for them for a week
and sample all of their bacon.
You need to test the different types of bacon that they have.
You need to test the different items on the menu that have bacon in it.
And you have to rate the bacon on things like thickness, crispiness,
and taste. Well, that's the main one, wouldn't it be? Yeah, tasteiness, and taste.
Well, that's the main one, wouldn't it be?
Yeah, taste is one of them.
Do you think bacon in America,
because I lived in America for a couple of years,
bacon is so different.
Yeah.
I feel like they don't do floppy bacon.
What do you mean?
You know how you get bacon here in New Zealand and it's cooked,
but it's still like, well, it's floppy.
I feel like all bacon in America is crispy.
Yeah, that's because I think it's a certain cut.
Like in Australia, the only type of bacon is the one with the big piece
on the end and then the strip that's attached to it.
I think that's shoulder bacon.
In Australia, that's just bacon.
That's bacon.
Okay.
And then what we call it, I think,
and then you can just get the bacon of just that middle section if you want to be healthy. That's middle bacon. That's bacon. Okay. And then what we call it, I think, and then you can just get the bacon of just that middle section
if you want to be healthy.
That's middle bacon.
Yeah.
They call it middle bacon.
Right.
But here in New Zealand, you guys have both.
All different kinds of bacon.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You guys have the American style, which is just the strips.
Yeah.
I think it's hard to find quite a crispy bacon in New Zealand though.
No.
Ask for it extra crispy at a cafe and it will come out extra crispy.
Which I assume means they cook the absolute
bejesus out of it, right? Is that how they get
it crispy? Right? It's just finding that
line between being burnt and
being, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, crispy
bacon. Can I give you my bacon tip?
Do you want my bacon cooking tip? Yeah.
Put the bacon in the pan
before the pan is hot.
So let the pan warm up with the bacon in there.
Yeah, because what it does is it lets the fat inside the bacon melt
as the pan gets warmer,
and then it cooks the liquidized fat with your bacon.
Whereas if you put bacon into a hot pan straight away,
it's going to sear it.
It's going to keep everything inside there,
and it's not going to give.
So I think you'll get crispier bacon if you put it in when the pan is cold
and let the pan warm up.
That might be the most useful thing
I've ever offered on the radio that day.
I've never been so attracted to you before.
Yeah.
If you want the...
That's nice of you.
You talking about bacon.
Yeah, I'll take it with some dead pig.
If you want to apply,
you need to post a fun and engaging photo
or video of you to Instagram
explaining why you would be the perfect bacon intern.
Oh, now it sounds like too much work.
Way too much.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
What is the happiest country in the world?
We'll tell you very shortly.
But more importantly, are we happier than Australia?
Are we happier than them?
I know we're jealous of them a lot of the time, but are we happier than them?
Surely.
Surely?
Surely.
I'm talking too much.
It makes me sound insecure.
Take a breath.
I love it how when I go like that,
you just stop talking and make it worse.
You could have helped.
I feel like you're talking at me and not to me,
so I don't know what to say.
Okay.
Well, what do you think, first of all,
as an Australian living in New Zealand, who's a
happier country, New Zealand or Australia?
God, that's tough.
I feel like it's pretty similar.
But you guys do
have the All Blacks.
We have Miranda Kerr.
I mean,
there's good things about both.
We've got Jacinda. You guys have Jacinda.
See, that's a big one.
Oh, but you guys have got Pauline Hanson.
Can we not bring her up?
Okay, sure.
I do have the results.
Where are we on the list?
This is the United Nations ranked countries on happiness.
Okay?
And before I give it to you,
happiness is made up by a range of things,
including like security,
like how safe do you feel in a country?
GDP, which is an acronym for gross domestic product.
How much money does your country make?
Okay.
And how corrupt is your country as well?
Do you believe in your system?
That sort of thing.
New Zealand versus Australia, the happier country is...
Us. Suck on that, Australia. Suck it. the happier country is us.
Suck on that, Australia.
Suck it.
Suck it, Australia, you stupid country.
They also did a thing on who's the most modest and we came out on top actually.
You are not.
You're a country of people who are comfortable wearing Speedos to the beach.
There is nothing modest about Australia.
Hey, don't put us all in that category.
The results put New Zealand at the eighth happiest country in the world.
That's pretty high up.
Which is pretty good.
We lost to Finland in number one.
Denmark.
I don't know the difference in those countries.
Norway.
Again.
I thought they were all.
Iceland and the Netherlands.
I don't know where any of those countries are.
I thought they were the same kind of country.
Hence why they're
all in the top. Switzerland and Sweden
as well. Same thing, right? All those
countries. That's one through seven
and then it goes New Zealand.
Then nine was Canada,
ten was Austria
and eleven was Australia.
Okay.
So, pretty good.
Pretty good.
I mean, room for improvement for you guys.
Yeah, pretty good.
A bit of work could be done.
Yeah, a little bit of work.
Pick up the slack, Australia.
Stupid country.
Stop being so damn sad.
You suck so much.
We rule.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
If you've ever thought one of your children or maybe you yourself was a spoiled brat,
see if this guy can give you a run for your money.
Okay, cool.
So it's over in India and a video has been taken of a driver who allegedly pushed his
brand new BMW that his parents gifted to him for his birthday
into a river because he wanted a Jaguar.
Wow.
That's a whole other level of entitlement, eh?
Is that not insane?
Was it?
Okay, hang on though.
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
Was it like, what sort of BMW was it?
Well, it says in the story that he got upset because it was too small
and that's why he wanted the Jaguar.
But the car looks like a four-door BMW, like a mid-sized BMW.
I was only half joking.
Like, it doesn't really matter.
Don't push it in the river.
True, yeah, true.
The thing about this is, was he claiming the insurance money or something?
He had so many other options.
No.
Sell it.
No.
No, he just threw a tantrum and pushed his car into a river.
Had a tantrum, spoiled brat.
He was actually in the car.
So he drove it into a river.
I'm pretty sure he drove it into the river
and then it says in this story that he hopped out
just before it started to sink.
Yeah, what a shame.
I've looked at the cost.
Yeah.
Over in India, India BMW, cars cost around, this particular car would have cost around
3.5 million rupees.
Okay.
Which is about over $70,000.
Okay, so they're about the same price as they are in New Zealand then for a BMW.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's all relative.
And a Jaguar costs over $100,000.
Right.
See, this is why sometimes I'm glad that I wasn't rich growing up as a child, right?
Because I just kind of feel like you wouldn't appreciate anything.
I was about to share a story and then I thought probably shouldn't do that.
Why not?
There was, oh no, there was a family member, not in my direct family, but in.
Extended.
Extended.
Who they're wealthy, very wealthy.
And when they were younger, he had two kids and he bought them both two BMWs.
Yeah.
Actually.
Yeah.
As chance has it.
They didn't like them.
So after a couple of months he bought them two more cars.
Just replacement cars?
Got them new cars?
Just new cars.
So then they had two.
Oh, not replacement cars.
He got them an extra car each.
What was the second car?
The second car I think was, it was like an SUV of some sort.
Right. Yeah. Okay.
Yeah, like I said before, that sounds awful.
Not for me, thanks.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM. Have I told you that I've started
investing in shares?
Have I told you about my new Get Rich Quick scheme?
You literally are the worst person
for these Get Rich Quick things. I'm surprised
you didn't buy Bitcoin
Or did you buy Bitcoin?
I tried to, it was too expensive by the time I got involved
And lucky I didn't buy it
Because it ended up being worth next to nothing
Although I hear Bitcoin's on the up again
So maybe it's time to look back into it
Anyway, I'm now a stock investor
I've got some shares
You've lost money, that's all you've done
Yeah Bree, it's a long game though
I'm in it for the long haul
What did you buy shares in
and I was like, I wouldn't have bought shares in that.
Milk. I bought shares
in Fonterra and then the day after
that I bought
them, they reported a $600
million loss for the year.
You should stop while you're ahead, mate.
Can I say, by the way though, I'm buying
$20 of shares, okay?
I don't know what I'm doing, so don't worry.
I'm not risking my fortune.
Your wife, Lucy, isn't listening.
Tell us the truth.
No, no, seriously, I don't have any more money than that to invest.
I'm just giving it a go.
I'm just trying to figure it out.
And I'll tell you why.
This story will tell you why.
There is a person who has just, a very famous Australian person,
who has just been revealed how much money he made from his investment.
So before I tell you who it is, I'll tell you what the investment is because you'll
know the product.
Have you seen those mattresses that they advertise on Instagram that come in a box?
Koala mattresses.
I sure have.
All the influencers under the sun have promoted them.
Isn't it amazing that you can make a mattress trendy?
I know.
And I think it's just because they take nice photos of them or it's the box bit too.
You can order it on the internet.
It's that.
It comes in a box.
And it comes in a box.
And then you undo it and then it rolls out.
It's the gimmick.
Yeah.
For me, that doesn't mean it's a good mattress.
For me, it makes me not want to buy it.
No, I know.
But they must be okay because the company's been doing very well.
So a very well-known Australian in 2015 when Koala Mattress Company was new
invested $100,000 in the company.
That's a fair chunk of cash.
It's a fair chunk, but for that, he got 10% of the company
because it was new.
So they go, okay, we think the company's worth $1 million.
For $100,000, you can have a 10% share.
And also, you can be the spokesperson.
You can be our brand ambassador.
So this person then did posts for them,
because you would, because the more the company ends up being worth
The more money you get
Yeah of course
He's a sports person
And so he put a logo for the koala mattresses
On his particular piece of sporting equipment
And it's just been revealed
That since 2015
Is it?
He has made
I ruined it
$12 million from koala mattresses
Jesus
That's a good investment So well done right You didn't ruin it The person who it is $12 million from koala mattresses. Jesus.
That's a good investment.
So well done, right?
You didn't ruin it.
The person who it is. Not shame worn.
Not shame worn.
Okay.
Well, that would be a good investment because he uses mattresses a lot.
Yeah, that would be.
Here you go.
I love.
Liz Hurley loves this mattress.
I love mattresses and phones and pies and ciggies.
No.
Oh.
Can I say who the person was?
Yeah.
So you've got the sport right.
It's cricket.
Okay.
It's dirty, cheating, former captain of the Australian cricket team, Steve Smith.
Oh, come on.
Give him a break.
Give him a break for what? He cheated in cricket and now he got $12 million.
Where's the justice? Where's the justice?
Where's the justice?
There is no justice.
Maybe I should start cheating.
No, you've got to invest first.
I'll do the investment part as well.
I'll do that as well.
Then do some cheating.
And then $12 million. That's the recipe.
This story is pretty exciting if you ask me.
Okay.
But they believe, scientists believe,
they may have discovered the world's oldest living vertebrae.
Okay.
It's a shark.
Okay.
And, yeah, cue music.
The massive Greenland shark was found in the North Atlantic Ocean
by scientists who estimated the shark.
So just remember it's living.
It's up to 512 years old.
Whoa.
That is an old shark.
That's older than Shakespeare.
Yeah. To put older than Shakespeare. Yeah.
To put it into perspective.
The scientists used the shark's size to determine how old or when it may have been born.
Oh, that's good.
I was worried they cut it in half and counted the rings.
No.
So Greenland sharks, they only grow one centimetre a year. So judging from that, they reckon this shark could have been birthed as early as 1505.
That means this shark's over five metres long as well.
Yes, it's a huge shark.
Right.
Massive.
That is quite incredible when you think about it like that.
But there'll be factors involved, like it's at the top of the food chain.
So it has no natural predators, right?
I guess except for other sharks.
The story talks about how they don't know
how or why these such animals can live that long.
They actually don't understand it.
But they're doing studies and stuff
to try and figure it out.
But what I did, I've grabbed a list of some of the world's oldest living things.
Okay.
And I'll see if you can guess some of them.
So they found a giant tortoise somewhere in the world.
I don't know where it was.
Is it a Galapagos turtle?
No, it's an Aldebra. Okay. Giant tortoise.
Yeah. How old
do you think? The world's oldest turtle?
Yeah. I know they live for
ages, but I'm going to say 140
years old. 255
years old. Whoa.
Yeah. They also found
this is not an animal, but it's
living. The Great Basin
Bristol Cone Pine.
It's a tree.
A tree?
A tree is alive.
We've gone from turtle to tree.
Okay, yeah, sure, yeah.
How old do you think is one of the oldest trees in North America?
5,000 years old.
5,067 years old, they reckon.
Whoa.
Also, I got it.
Congratulations.
Nice work.
Old tree.
And then there's other microscopic organisms, which are boring.
But I also did my research onto the oldest living domestic cat.
Oh, yeah.
His name's Cream Puff.
I bet it doesn't look like a Cream Puff anymore.
The cat actually passed away.
Okay. So how old is the world's oldest dead cat?
How old do you think cream puff lived till?
Well I'm not going to be surprised if it's early 20s Because I've heard of cats
I've actually met a 21 year old cat before
You met one?
It had a glass eye
Did it?
Yeah
No it did not
Yes it did
I don't know why it was glass
They didn't just sew it up
But it did have a glass eye
So when did you become friends with Dr. Evil?
In cat form.
This is my cat.
I will be impressed if the world's oldest cat is 35.
Okay.
Creampuff, the oldest known domestic cat who died in Austin, Texas in 2005.
At the age of 38 and three days.
I'm officially impressed.
I'm so impressed at that.
That is an old puss.
Yeah, that's what the owner said.
Isn't it?
By that age, too, the cats start to smell quite bad,
and your guests come over and they go,
what's that smell on you?
Sorry, it's some old puss.
When the cat eats, it goes.
Brie and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
It's Brie and Clint.
True.

A pop diva. A pop diva. Yanina. A pop diva. Sorry, I've got to clap it.
A wonderful intro for a wonderful segment.
What a show.
That's Brie singing that, by the way, on that intro there.
I wish.
That auto-tuned her a bit.
This is the outtake.
They took the Aussie out of my voice.
Yeah, yeah.
There's a twang filter and we turned the twang filter down.
Turned it way down.
Basically, there's this chick called Yanina,
who I saw for the first time yesterday, by the way.
She's babe.
She looks exactly what I thought someone called Yanina would look like.
You reckon?
A bit Russian.
Yeah.
And she does YouTube covers and she does very good impersonations of pop divas.
Exactly right. That's what she makes a living out of. She's on YouTube, millions of views,
and we've turned it into a game. Janina or Pop Diva will play you either a clip of Janina or a
clip of the real Pop Diva she's impersonating. You just got to tell us which one it is.
Playing today is Lauren and Emma. Hi, guys. Hi. Whoever gets the most correct is taking home some mobile fuel.

Okay, that's hard.

Has that popped either?
Is it Ariana Grande?
Well done.
Oh, no.
Sorry, no, wrong.

Lauren, you win the game in the mobile fuel.
Yay, thank you so much.
Lauren, she's too good.
She's too good.
Okay, that's Yanina or Pop Diva.
We'll play again next week.
Clint even got confused on one.
I got confused because it was a cover.
That's the thing.
It was a cover of a cover and then it's like Tropic Thunder.
Do you hear that, guys?
You know?
Hear that?
Oh, excuses.
That's what it was, yeah.
Okay.
ZM, Spree and Clint.
The podcast.
Spree's back.
She's gone on an extended skiing holiday and she's decided Wednesday is an appropriate day to come back to work.
Sorry, guys.
Nice of you to show up.
I actually was spending a little bit of time with my brother down in Wanaka because I'm not going to get to see him for quite a long time.
Yeah, we would have liked to have spent time with your brother as well, okay?
I think, well, you know, a lot of people would.
Way to keep him to yourself. Anyway, it was really good to see him and we got to go skiing
for the few days that we had together.
This is live audio of Bree skiing recorded on the mountain.
That's me shredding.
Or as they say, carving up the pow-pow.
I was carving up the powder and, you know, just really just hanging ten,
hanging low.
Shaka bra.
Yeah, shaka bra on those lines.
Cowabunga.
Had real good lines down a few certain runs.
Yeah, and had the skiing go.
The skiing was also good.
Love it.
There was snow in both.
But my brother's all-time favourite thing to do is ski.
He loves it.
Absolutely loves it.
I thought your brother's all-time favourite thing to do is ski. He loves it. Absolutely loves it. I thought your brother's all-time favourite thing to do was CrossFit.
Well, that and skiing.
I thought your brother's all-time favourite thing to do was to look off into the distance,
like pondering his existence with that blue in his eyes that looks like the deepest ocean.
You know what I don't understand is when I put on ski gear, I look like a nafty.
And when he puts it on, he just looks cool and like you know what i mean i saw on
your instagram um he was wearing those no i like how producer ellie was nodding her head then yeah
thanks mate yeah no i'm agreeing with her too i saw on your instagram he was wearing those numpty
overalls that you wear but he made him look cool he made him look hot yeah he really you need to
just settle down i'm just living i'm just enjoying what i see all right there's no there's no law
against it anyway there was me,
my brother, who's a really good skier, and then
a couple of mates who were also,
they're probably all at the same level, and then there
was me. Right. And
I had this constant battle
over the couple of days that we went
skiing where I didn't want to
ski by myself. So I had
to push myself and go on
the harder runs. Because if you haven't been skiing
before you've got the green runs which are the easiest yep then blue then black then double black
and then diamond and then sapphire i don't know i haven't been up that high i haven't been up that
high on the mountain anyway so i was pushing myself i think there's red in in there somewhere
yeah and right at the end of the day we're on the last chairlift and we're going up.
And I was like, what level is this run?
Like, what level?
Is it a blue one?
Because I don't want to do higher than a blue.
He goes, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's blue.
Halfway through, I see this big sign.
It's not a blue.
It's a red, isn't it?
Yeah.
And soon as I knew in my mind that it was a harder run, I panicked.
Yeah, yeah.
I panicked.
You thought yourself out of it.
Yeah.
So straight away I panicked.
Last run of the day, I'm heading down the mountain.
Literally I can see the end of the run.
Like it's in sight.
I've hit this tiny lip of snow and I've kind of scorpioned myself.
What do you mean?
Oh, like your feet have gone over your head from behind.
Yeah.
The reverse back bend.
Yeah, yeah.
And I landed all of my weight on my left shoulder.
Okay.
Could have been worse.
You could have skidded on your boobies, but yeah, yeah.
No, that would have been better.
At least there's some batting there.
Oh, true.
I don't know how boobies work.
At least there's some batting.
Yeah. Anyway, so I can't use some batting there. Oh, true. I don't know how boobies work. At least there's some batting. Yeah.
Anyway, so I can't use my left arm anymore.
Oh, right.
Okay.
Well, good news is you're a radio DJ.
And there's very little heavy lifting involved.
And the other good news is Ross isn't giving you any days off
for like the next four months.
God.
So by the time you get a holiday again.
I know.
I think I need a sick day.
There'll be no snow.
My shoulder's real sore.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM. Yesterday on the show we brought
you a bit of bonus aviation
news actually. Oh, you missed aviation news yesterday
Bree. Oh, I'm so sad.
It was that Dunedin Airport
will be the first airport in New Zealand to bring in
the full body scanners for domestic flights.
Which you might think is mundane, but I think it's a bit sad.
As a country who is traditionally accustomed to just, you know,
opening the airport door and walking out onto the runway and just picking a plane.
No, it's not sad.
When I first got here and I went on a domestic flight with you
and we walked straight to the runway, I was like, I whispered to you and I was like,
where's the security?
No, it's nice.
And you were like, oh, no, there's no security for domestic flights.
And I was like, what?
Yeah, it's small town charm.
Well, not anymore.
Not anymore.
You have to go through a full body scanner in Dunedin
and they're rolling them out everywhere.
They've just decided to start with Dunedin.
I'm fine with that.
It'll be the most action I've had in weeks.
Right?
And maybe they could print one out for you.
It could be like your new set of nudes.
It'd be great.
Well, originally I was sad about that and the loss of that no security charm.
Today, having read an article
from Aviation Security Services
Group Manager of Operations,
Karen Irwin at Dunedin Airport.
What is her name?
Karen.
Karen, yeah.
She has changed my mind
and I am now convinced that we need full body scanners.
Okay.
She's released a list of the weirdest things found on people trying to board flights out of Dunedin.
Oh, I love this stuff.
What have people tried to get onto a flight?
So some very standard stuff, some run-of-the-mill balls and chain.
Oh, yep.
The odd ball and chain, which I can get.
Stag do's, right?
Probably a stag do. Oh, I thought you were talking about they tried to bring their wife on the plane. No, no, no. A physical ball and chain Which I can get Stag do's Right Probably a stag do
Oh I thought you were talking about
They tried to bring their wife on the plane
No no no
A physical ball and chain
Oh right
They've stopped people
Fairly regularly
In Dunedin airport
Boarding with full boxes
Of fireworks
Which I also get
Like if it's not
Wherever you go
They might not have fireworks
For sale
Imagine if that went off
In the aircraft
Imagine if the flight went down And you had to signal for help.
What are you going to use?
Oh, don't worry, guys.
I've got some fireworks.
Then we get into some of the weirder stuff.
There is someone found at Dunedin Airport
who was carrying $2 million cash.
Why?
Because they won it at Sky City.
So they were flying back to Dunedin.
No way. And they won it at Sky City Casino, were flying back to Dunedin. No way.
And they won it at Sky City Casino
and they took the whole lot in cash.
Oh my God.
Airports get so suspect when you've got cash on you.
Don't they?
I know it generally means that you're a drug dealer.
That's what you think, right?
But what if you just don't trust the bank?
What if cash is your thing?
What if it's an easier way to budget?
I'd also love to see the person whose wallet,
how fat their wallet was with $2 million in it.
But this last thing is my favourite thing.
Found on somebody trying to board a plane at Dunedin Airport.
They went through security with a two litre can of petrol to get on the plane.
Why would they be carrying that?
She said, one man decided he would decant the leftover petrol from his rental car
because he didn't want the rental car company to have the fuel that he had paid for.
God, you know you're cheap.
So he sucked it out of the car, put it in a can and took it on the airplane.
What an absolute idiot, can I say?
And cheap.
And cheap.
How cheap is that guy?
I told you that story about what we did to, and I don't condone this behavior, but what we did to one of my friends one time when we were traveling.
No.
We had a soccer team and we're all traveling together as a team.
And we had this one girl on the team who loved to pull pranks on everyone.
Yeah. came up with this plan where they decided they would buy a big, giant rubber device for ladies.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
You know what I'm talking about?
Yeah.
Not illegal on a flight, but yeah.
Not illegal, and you can take that on your carry-on.
Yeah.
Not when it's strapped to a pair of scissors.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

That is the winner of Birthday Banger today from Jennifer Lopez.
No regrets.
Do you remember that movie called Love Don't Cost a Thing?
No.
You don't remember that movie with Nick Cannon?
No.
Was Jennifer Lopez in it?
No, she wasn't in it, but I think that song was like the theme song of the whole thing.
Right, put Jennifer Lopez in it.
I know.
Right?
She's done some good movies.
Oh, she's also done some bad ones.
Remember that movie Gigli?
Remember when she was married to Ben Affleck
and they did that movie Gigli?
Don't remember the film, but I remember when she was married to him.
Yeah, it was part of it.
I think it was part of the reason they broke up. What was your favourite
J-Lo film?
Made in Manhattan is pretty good.
Haven't seen it.
Why am I asking? You haven't seen
any. You haven't seen any film.
Brie and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
Bree's back.
Yesterday we were talking about LinkedIn.
Do you know you've got a LinkedIn page?
Yeah, I do recall I've got a LinkedIn page.
I forgot about mine too.
Hadn't logged on since 2012.
Jumped in, checked it and found out that I'm the current assistant program director of network radio station The Edge.
Oh, our direct competition.
Well, which we all say congrats.
That's a good job.
Yep, yep.
That's a good job.
Good from you.
Yeah, good from me.
Yeah, nice, nice.
I'm in the process of updating mine.
I'm going to actually put down all my other skill sets.
I thought today, if we're going to do that to me, it'd only be right to look at your LinkedIn profile.
Mine's updated.
No, it's not.
I've been on your LinkedIn profile.
No, it's not. And it's not your LinkedIn profile. No, it's not.
And it's not up to date.
To find it, I just banged your name into Google.
Okay.
Have you ever Googled yourself?
No.
Do you know what comes up?
Never.
The first thing that comes up if you Google search Brie Thomasel.
Nudes.
No, close.
A video titled, I explained to my mum the term MILF.
That is the first search result.
Do you know what picture comes up for you if you go to image search?
Is it one where I've got heaps of things in my mouth?
No, it's not one of those ones.
I make skittles or grapes.
How do we change the algorithm to prioritise that one though?
Can we not?
It's a good question.
I'll look into it.
That one of her eating the giant long donut.
That looks like a penis.
Not that one.
No, your first picture looks like it's from Instagram.
Your second picture
is Celebrity Treasure Island
and the third photo
that comes up for you
when you Google you
I can see it from here.
is your
Woman's Day photo shoot.
God damn it!
Where you're wearing
the turtleneck
and the white
That photo will haunt me
for the rest of my life.
What is that pose?
Again, I know
we've talked about it before.
They told me to lay like that.
Do you sound a favour?
Do you sound a favour?
Google Bree Thomas L.
Don't.
And go to image.
It's the third photo that comes up.
Don't.
It's like you're relaxing on your first day of retirement.
It literally looks like I'm an old woman stuck inside a younger woman's body.
Yeah.
Anyway, anyway, anyway, anyway.
It looks like I'm Betty White back in the 60s.
Back to your LinkedIn.
Looks like I've got false teeth.
Back to your LinkedIn profile.
Looks like I'm dried up.
You're a breakfast radio announcer in Australia.
Okay.
Not too long ago.

Thank you.
Thanks, guys.
Appreciate that. But it's not up to date. know. And again, good job. Thank you. Thanks, guys. Appreciate that.

A lot of vape.
But if there are any vape companies out there
looking for an ambassador.
I've been away in Wanaka for the last weekend and couple of days.
And beautiful place.
The Wanaka tree.
That was a good time.
What's the Wanaka tree?
You don't know the Wanaka tree?
No, sorry.
Not all of us are going to Wanaka for our holidays.
Hey, you knock it, but it's awesome.
I know it is.
It's very exclusive though. Is it? Oh, is it fancy? It's fancy, yeah. This is the thing about Wanaka for our holidays. Hey, you knock it, but it's awesome. I know it is. It's very exclusive, though.
Is it?
Oh, is it fancy?
It's fancy, yeah.
This is the thing about Wanaka, too.
I got my accommodation for free because I bummed off my brother.
That's good.
That's a good move.
People in Wanaka don't want you to say how good Wanaka is, I think,
because they're getting overrun.
Like, it used to be the quiet Queenstown.
Definitely the case.
And now everyone's like, man, screw Queenstown.
We're going to Wanaka.
I definitely got that vibe, but it is beautiful.
Anyway, the Wanaka tree is on the Wanaka Lake, but it's out in the water.
Yeah.
So it's not on a piece of land.
It's literally a tree that's coming out of the water.
Yeah.
And it's alive.
Right, okay.
And people love it and take photos with it.
Anyway, they're obsessed.
Something cool about being down in Wanaka is a lady who lives in Wanaka got in touch with me.
And she's like, oh, I see you're in Wanaka.
I've just started this business with my mum.
I'd love to give you some lollipops because it's a lollipop business.
Right, candy from a stranger.
And I love taking candy from a stranger.
Don't do it, kids.
But if you're an adult, it's a good time.
It's a great way to get your candy.
It is. Anyway
she dropped over a bunch of these lollipops
but the cool thing and the reason
why I think I was so interested
in these lollipops is that
they're alcohol
based. Right now you've got my attention.
Well not all of them but she does
certain flavours that aren't and then
certain flavours that are. Right.
So I mean you've got your
really awesome flavours like creme brulee
and carrot cake and Anzac biscuit and all these really cool different ones.
Get to the alcohol.
But the alcohol ones, which she uses real alcohol in them.
Okay.
Is that legal?
That's what I said.
Yeah.
But it must be.
You can make whatever you want.
Yeah.
But surely you'd have to have a license to sell alcoholic lollipops.
Well, I think at this stage, because I asked her, I was like,
obviously you use real alcohol.
And she's like, yeah, it's all real alcohol.
So she makes flavors like gin and tonic.
Yum.
Margarita.
Yum.
Pina Colada.
Yum.
Espresso martini.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And she's like, yeah, all real alcohol used in them.
But she's like, a lot of the alcohol burns off when you cook it. Right.
Like when you see your mum tipping half a bottle of red wine into a pasta sauce.
Exactly.
And you're like, yo, mum, dinner's going to be lit.
I'm going to go drool.
And then she's like, shut up, dumbass.
It burns off when you cook it.
I'm going to get my bolognese on.
Shut up, mum.
Let's get lit.
Anyway, but she said, because obviously it's not an original idea,
but it's over in America that they've been making these kind of lollipops.
Yeah.
And they're looking into ways of where a lot of the alcohol doesn't burn off when you make them.
Yeah.
Imagine getting yourself a six pack of lollipops to go to a party.
That's a good time.
Yeah.
It's also a fun way to get kids into drinking.
Jesus.
I think sometimes in the media it's important to state your politics, right? to get kids into drinking. Jesus. ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
I think sometimes
in the media
it's important to state
your politics, right?
And just so people know
where you're coming from.
And I think it's fair to say
you and I are
Jacinda Ardern fans, right?
Yeah, I like Jacinda.
Like, it doesn't mean
you're going to vote for her
or you actually can't
but as a Prime Minister
I think she's a good...
I got asked to register
to vote the other day.
Can you?
Yeah.
Can you?
And then I thought, do they know?
That you're Australian?
That I'm an Australian?
You should.
Yeah.
No, I definitely think it's important.
Yeah.
Oh, wait.
Who would you vote for?
Jacinda.
Oh, okay.
Oh, you're not meant to say that out loud, are you?
No, you're not meant to say.
No.
No.
Unless you're in the media, in which case sometimes you have to.
Although you're meant to be impartial.
I don't know.
Who are you going to vote for?
Legalised cannabis.
Hell yeah.
420, blaze it.
No, no, no, not them.
But we were talking about off-air,
the fight that has raged between Jacinda Ardern
and ex-cricketer turned old angry white guy,
Mark Richardson.
Mark Richardson, yeah.
That's what it says on his business card.
It does.
Old angry white guy on his business card.
Put it this way.
If that is his job, he's very good at it.
Oh, he's great at it.
Loves to stir the pot.
Whether you like him and his opinions or not,
he's there to be that and he's good at it.
He is the whitestest angriest guy yeah
he's the whitest angriest real like old school male guy on tv at the moment and it's quite a
skill it's quite a skill because you would piss people off to piss people off yeah um but also
you gotta you gotta take it like he'll go to the pub and people will be like oh they he would cop
it yeah both barrels but at the same he'd also get the other side.
He'd get the other side going,
mate, I'm glad you finally told that stupid Prime Minister woman what to do.
And wear a sticker.
Let's reminisce on something that happened in 2017.
Well, yeah, sure.
You want to do that one first or you want to do the new...
Let's do this one first.
Okay, cool.
So this is where it all started.
You weren't living here then.
No.
And Jacinda wasn't Prime Minister.
But she'd just become the leader of the Labour Party.
And Mark Richardson said that he should have the right to ask her
or any woman going for a job whether she intended to have children or not.
You.
For other women, it is totally unacceptable in 2017
to say that women should have to answer that question in the workplace. But this is my point. That is unacceptable. No, I'm going to count that. No, it is totally unacceptable in 2017 to say that women should have to answer that question
in the workplace.
But this is my point.
No, I'm going to count that.
No, it is unacceptable in 2017.
It is a woman's decision about
when they choose to have children.
It should not predetermine
whether or not they are given a job
or have job opportunities.
We cut Mark off there too
because he had not much good stuff to say.
She cut him off too.
She was pointing at him.
She's pointing at him.
It was like a little boy being told off.
She does do it well.
She does.
But she didn't, you know, he raised her voice in that conversation.
He raised his voice, sorry.
You know you've won an argument when the other person starts shouting.
And she just didn't, you know, didn't really affect her.
She was just kind of like, okay, I've said my piece.
Anyway, the latest thing that's happened in the Mark Richardson
v Jacinda Ardern saga is that she was on the AM show.
Was it yesterday morning?
Yeah.
And she was talking about the gun laws.
Okay.
And some other stuff, quite a lot of stuff.
Anyway, there's a screenshot of one of the TV cameras
that gets Jacinda Ardern, so it's at the back of her head,
but you can see all three people on the panel for the AM show.
And in this one screenshot, Mark Richardson,
and obviously she's speaking at the time, he's on his phone,
and she took a screenshot of it and posted it to her Instagram story
and said, can't even hold the attention of Mark Richardson for five minutes
or something.
I don't know what, yeah, something like that.
And just called him out on social media.
Yeah.
You've got to understand when you're winning the fight,
I think sometimes.
Like if I was Mark Richardson, I'd be scared too.
And I probably would go on my fight.
Yeah, because she's the Prime Minister.
I'd just stay out of it for five minutes.
But yeah, it's all good.
She's not getting invited on the block, so.
Not anytime soon.
