You did. No. Maybe yesterday you said, I heard a rumour. I was not me. And we all said, Clint, don't do that. I dared to dream that maybe today

Jacinda was going to go, you know what? You've been such good boys and girls. It's over. You know what? Go out this weekend. Have fun. Don't let it ruin your Friday, I say.

It's still Friday, which means you can still create your own pub at home if you want. That's what we're doing at my flat tonight. We're all dressing up. Yeah, who's the bartender? We haven't, the cat. You've got to make someone the bartender. Everyone's a bartender at home.

No, you should take turns, I reckon. Okay. Do hour about. You should get a keg. Yeah. Oh, there. I don't know if you can get a keg. Yeah. Oh, there. I don't know if you can get a keg. You can't get a keg?

Well, I don't know if you can get one delivered in lockdown. The Bottle-O's not open. Do they sell kegs at the Bottle-O? Do they? I don't know. I've never bought a keg before. You know when you go to a party and someone got a keg? I'm just impressed that there's a keg there.

Exactly. I don't know where you get them from. I don't think I've ever bought... Remember those miniature kegs? Yeah, you can get the Heineken ones. Yeah, the miniature Heineken keg. Yeah, I think there's like a Asahi one as well. Yeah, maybe just a miniature keg.

Just get a little mini keg. Treat yourself. Good idea. Yeah, right. Responsibly. Treat yourself responsibly. Yeah, absolutely. We'll share it.

Whoever's the bartender, it's their job to kick whoever's too drunk out of the house and go, you've had enough. And they just have to go sit outside on the lawn. To make everyone feel good when I'm bartending, I'm going to ask everyone for ID, even though we're all old. Good. Then, you know, it'll be great.

Today on the show, Friday Oki Live, we were meant to be in Dunedin today. Oh, yeah. Today was going to be Friday Oki Dunedin, but bloody COVID. It's been postponed. We will eventually get to Dunedin. And we'll be back. And Friday Oki, the regular radio edition,

is here at 5 o'clock. We're doing Stacey's Mom. Not literally, we're singing Stacey's Mom, the song. Yeah. Better specify that these days, 2020. Plus the fact of the day, 50k fact of the day is here at 4 o'clock. Your question's coming up at like 5

to 4. Next up, this is going to be something that affected nearly everyone last night and I've turned it into a really jazzy radio game. Okay. It's going to get real jazzy in here. I'm about to get jazzy up in here. And I've written another jingle. This is a jazzy

fizzle. Brian Clint, ZM. Something pretty big went down in the internet world last night. In the internet world? Yeah. And I feel like it caused a disruption in a few people in his lives. You're talking about the Gmail issue? Well, it wasn't just Gmail. It was actually a bunch of different Google apps that went down.

Right. Yesterday, last night, a lot of people were saying that they were having problems with everything from Gmail to Google Drive to Google Voice. Oh, okay. You know, all different types of things. Google, you know, the Google Cloud. You know, I had both of those issues last night

and it's not until you've just said that. Yeah, because I was in the car and I tried to get my phone to send a text while I was driving. Wouldn't work. Yep. And I was just like, oh, I must be overloaded. And then I was using my Gmail and I tried to get my phone to send a text while I was driving. Wouldn't work. And I was just like, oh, it must be overloaded. And then I was using my Gmail and I was trying to write an email and it kept coming up with your message cannot be saved. Like every 15 seconds.

I'm like, oh, I'm lost with my computer. But it turns out it's not my fault. Because we never usually think that these things can happen. Yeah. Such big, massive companies and things that we use all the time, right? God, Google can't go down. It's literally running everything. And because Google did go down last night, I've come up with a new game.

I'm pretty excited about it. Here it is. Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down? What the hell? I think Google's actually... Google down.... Google Down. Down. Good.

You guys don't know this, but you're all participating in a game called Google Down that I've created. I've never been more ready for a game I know nothing about. Yeah. It's something we do every day, guys. We use Google. Producer Anastasia, Producer Ben, I know that you've used Google before. And we are going to play a game of who can Google the fastest. Oh, I'm ready.

Okay, cool. Okay. Right. It's going to be a series of questions. You just need to yell out the answer when you think you have it. Okay? Producers, are you ready? I'm ready.

All right. First question in Google Down. Who is the current oldest person in the world? Matthew. Dan's out. Clint, the oldest person. Oh, no, that's Eva. Anastasia.

Or Kan Tanaka. She's got it. No, she does not. His name's Kane. Well, I knew what she meant. K-A-N-E. Kane. No, I was.

Kan Tanaka. How do you pronounce it? I wasn't sure how. K-A-N-E. Kane. No, I was... I'm the boss. I wasn't sure how to pronounce it. You get the point. One to Anastasia. Thank you very much. You weren't sure how to pronounce Kane. All right, one point to Anastasia. Next up in Google Down, the question is,

how many minutes does it take to boil an egg? Go. 120. Clint. Anastasia. Yes. Two. No, Anastasia, you get a free guess.

Was this minutes or seconds? Minutes. Four minutes. She's got two. Damn, I tried to beat Google and just guess it. All right, don't yell out your name. Just yell out the answer, okay? All right.

Next question. It is currently two to Anastasia. Ben, I don't know what you're doing. I'm just going for it. It's between Clint and Anastasia. Ben, I don't know what you're doing. I'm just going for it. Pretty much between Clint and Anastasia right now. Who is the current leader of South Africa? Yell out the answer straight away when you've got it. Cyril Ramaphosa.

She's got it again. God damn it. Are you using Google Voice out there? Are you just plugging breeze? Possibly. No, I'm just a good touch typer. All right. Couple more.

Here we go. Who is the fastest Googler in Google Down? How many days till Christmas? Hey Google, how many days till Christmas? One hundred and three-six! Anastasia, win! The 25th of December 2020 is in one hundred and three-six days. Nice! Damn it. Google, you would have lost at your own game.

Shame, Google. There it is. Google Down at your own game. Shame, Google. There it is. Google down. Brand new game. Might be back next week. Might not be. I want it to come back. Yeah, of course. Ben's still waiting for the game to start.

Yesterday, at this exact time, I told you about a boom in sales for track pants. Remember? Yeah, about time the track pant came back. They're in. Lockdown has meant that people who make a fashion track pant can't make them fast enough at the moment. They're just flying off the shelves. Well, off the stock room.

Off the stock room shelves. Yeah, flying into courier vans to go to people's houses. There's another product today that is boom time and it's all because of lockdown as well. Anyone here sleep on an Ecosa mattress? I've seen those. They're on Instagram, eh? Ecosa, the mattress company, has said that

they are booming in sales here in New Zealand because of lockdown version 2. Really? And other bed companies have come out and said, yep, we're selling bulk beds at the moment. That's so weird. I literally had a conversation with my partner last night about getting a new mattress. There you go.

Because we'd spent so much time in bed that I feel like my mattress is sagging. So you're doing more at home time because you can't go out on a Friday and Saturday night. So you hop in bed and watch whatever you've got. You've got your laptop, you've got your TV in the room. I do everything in bed. You put the – yeah, it's your workbench. Yeah, literally for everything. You put your new TV in the room. I do everything in bed. You put the, yeah, it's your workbench. Yeah, literally for everything.

You put your new TV in the room? Yeah. The other side of it is they surveyed people who are buying the beds and one in four people are working from home from bed. Yeah. So they're not sitting up at the kitchen table like you think they might be. Bed's more comfy. All they're doing is getting up, making some breakfast,

making a cup of tea, and then back to bed. That sounds like heaven. And then, I mean, if you – because what would you need to do? To do your Zoom calls from bed, you just need to take your pyjama top off. Yeah. And make sure the pillow's not in shot. Don't get the pillow in shot. Yeah.

If you put like a wall planner up instead of your headboard, that'd be convincing. Like a calendar. Yeah. Yeah, and that's all you need. And then it's home office, all done from bed. And then you can have maybe a headphone in so it looks

like it's going to the laptop, but it can be maybe going to the TV so you can watch a TV show. Yeah, or the iPad. Yeah. Yeah, perfect, perfect, perfect. Also, if you're self-employed, or maybe even if you're not at the moment, I don't know how it's all working with tax and things like that, your bed would become tax deductible.

It can be your work desk. It's like a desk. It's the same as using a tax break to get yourself an office desk and chair. Just say your bed. This is real sad, but you know, when I was single for a long time, I spent so much time in bed. Bed is my happy place. I love bed. I spent so much time in bed that I would have to constantly flip my mattress.

Yeah. Rotate it. Rotate it. Yeah. And because it was just me sleeping in it, you can now see. The stains. No, no. What? The body stains. The body stains. It can now see. The stains. No, no. What?

The body stains. The body stains. It wasn't meant to be rude. I meant like the body print. You said stains. Yeah, stains. You know, like the brown human ring that develops. No?

What do you think I'm doing in there? Well, I washed my mattress protector the other day and there was definitely a... Here's T-Pain, Bree and Clint. Turn on the lights, all! Bree and Clint. Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio.

This is... The Latest. Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean, tell us that the Ellen saga is still continuing to roll on. She's now offered her employees what? More money, more paid holidays to come back now as you may remember three of her executive producers have all been fired from the show after an internal investigation found them to be well i guess not very nice people so here's the deal right so she decided to bribe all of the rest of her employees with more holidays.

So they're getting extra weeks of holidays if they come back to work on the show because it's a very talented cast, as you can imagine, the people behind the scenes. Twitch, remember Twitch, the DJ guy? Of course. He is now one of the executive producers. He got a promotion and a fat pay rise. So there's a really cool person in the leadership role. But there is one thing she did address in her address to all of the staff,

the whole don't look me in the eye thing. Now, apparently, okay, that was like a rumor that she didn't start or actually want. It was just something that was kind of like floated around that they just shouldn't look her in the eye. I don't know how I feel about this, but I will say this. A lot of big celebrities have that as a rule because they find it very distracting when the entire room is staring at them.

So it's pretty common, even though it sounds really shady, it's often because it's very distracting. Brie has that rule here at ZM. Stop looking at me. We're not allowed to look. Stop looking at me. It all started one day when she had a sty, and she was like, stop looking at me.

And then from then she got used to it. So now we can't look her in the eye. And also if she walks from carpet onto tiles, she needs human bodies to stand on. I mean, I think that's pretty standard. Across the tiles. She said the temperature change is too much for her feet to handle. They don't mind.

It's fine. It's all good. That's the latest live out of Los Angeles with our correspondent, Dean McCarthy. It's brought to you by Huawei's Y6P phone. Good. That's the latest live out of Los Angeles with our correspondent, Dean McCarthy. It's brought to you by Huawei's Y6P phone, charging on with the Huawei Y6P ultra-large battery. Brian Clint.

Okay, it's that time of the week where we reflect on the week. We look back at the moments that have gone through the eyes of producer Ben. Yes. It's interesting sometimes to see, you know, through the eyes of producer Ben. And sometimes I think, you know, has he had a drink? Well, not this week because he's on severe antibiotics. Oh, you're true. So we know you haven't. So welcome to the first ever sober Brian Clint's High Low.

Play Zed Emsbury. Hey, guys. Welcome to yet another week of Brian Clint's Highs and Lows. It's where I pick out all the high points of the week and the low points of the week. Now I don't normally include anything that happens or airs on a Friday, but last Friday we had none other than Jacinda Ardern on the show. And we may have got a bit of a scoop on what her favourite chocolate bar is. Prime Minister, good evening.

Hello. Good evening, how are you? We're great. I just wanted to ask how you are because I feel like, you know, people are always like pumping questions at you. But I just wanted to ask, you're obviously under a lot of pressure at the moment. There's so many things going on. I just wanted to ask, how are you?

Oh, thank you. It's really kind. You know, just like I think most people, I do the same thing. I take note every day as it comes, you know, one decision at a time. So I'm okay. Good to hear. It's good to hear. And plus, I just ate half a packet of Kit Kat.

That's good, too. Oh, damn. Have a break. Oh, you only took half a break? Take the whole break. No, I should be really honest. It was one of those block ones. Oh, you ate half a Kit Kat block.

No one blames you for that right now. Now, this week on the show, we did let through a bit of a swear word. But to be fair, it was off the back of a very sexy birthday banger. Get one on for Anna. Hey, Anna. Hi, Anna. Hello. How's it going?

Good. How are you, mate? Good. That's good. What's your birthday, Anna? 5th of August, 1975. All right. This is your birthday, mate.

I want to sex you up. Sex you up. My partner would like that. Yeah, right. Wait, is your partner there with you, Anna? Yeah, yeah. Do they like it? They're like, oh, he goes, oh, f***, oh, dear.

Oh, oh, oh, Anna, Anna, Anna, Anna, Anna, Anna. Oh, sorry. No, that's okay. It's okay. Oh, my God, I'm sorry. No, when the moment takes you, the moment takes you, okay? All I wanna do is... And finally this week, I thought I'd end on a high or a low for producer Anastasia.

We decided to prank her with a very convincing Miley Cyrus interview. Yes, thank you for having me. Oh my God. Hey Miley, congratulations on the new single Midnight Sky and the music video that you directed yourself. I like introducing my fans to music they don't know. That it's really special having a pansexual, bisexual anthem within the song and playing with the gender roles. It just felt honest and captured my soul. I am getting some seriously good vibes from you. And all my promises is probably going to kill me for this. I'm not going to say anything, but I'm literally on set finishing the reboot of Hannah Montana.

They're announcing it next week, so, like, I mean, Hannah's pulling on some hard times and stumbled into maybe being an exotic dancer. Oh my gosh. Are you being fully serious? Do you like Hannah Montana? I grew up, like, I'm

22 years of age. I grew up, I've followed the whole, everything from Hannah Wright to now, and that is bloody exciting news. I can tell you that. Miley, we heard a rumour that you might be moving to Australia. I mean, it's probably inappropriate to ask. Like, yeah, there's a lot happening. Yeah, no, no, that's completely understandable.

Well, thank you so much for your time. All we can say is that we're bloody excited for what else you're going to be releasing. I'm sure you are. Hey, Anastasia, say hello to my friend Talisha. Oh, you f***ing

Hi! Hi! Hi, Anastasia. Sorry, mate. That's this week's Highs and Lows. See you this time next week. Definite high for us, I think. Anastasia, welcome to the team.

Thanks, guys. It's a compliment, yeah. Next week, you're going to interview Cardi B. And Chris Hemsworth. It's crazy. Wow. We're lining them up. I'll get the exclusive B. And Chris Hemsworth. It's crazy. Wow. We're lining them up. I'll get the exclusive scoop.

Don't worry, guys. Good stuff. Here's a question. Did they get engaged straight after dating you? Yesterday, we talked to someone on the show who wanted to remain anonymous, and she told us about how she proposed to her boyfriend of eight years. Have a listen to this. Oh, hi.

My boyfriend at the time said no. And then his reason was we were too young at the time. Yeah. And a few months later, we broke up. Yeah. And a couple of months after that, he has a new girlfriend and proposes to her. Shut the front door. Oh, my God.

No. Eight years together. And after that eight years, he's too young to get married. He told her, I think we're too young. Oh, my God. No. Eight years together and after that eight years, he's too young to get married. He told her, I think we're too young. We're too young. But he wasn't too young for the next girl a couple of months later. Well, technically, in fairness to him, he was two months older.

In fairness, yep, yep, you got me there. You caught me on a technicality and that's what he said to her. This is to my wife, Lucy. I told her about that call and she goes it's incredibly common. What when people have really long relationships and then they end up dating the next person. And then they marry the next

person that they're with. She said that it happens to girls quite often. She's got a friend who I think went 12 years with someone and then straight after that they got married to somebody. Yeah, that's crazy. So it is a thing that happens. So we wanted to know this afternoon, has it happened to you? Did they get engaged straight after dating you?

Yeah, see, that's so hard to take, isn't it? If you had such a long relationship with someone. And it probably wasn't right. That's why it didn't work out. But still, you see them get engaged and getting married straight after they break up with you yeah and you go was I just on the shelf?

was I just filler? it would make you feel pretty stink yeah it would be horrible and did they invite you to the wedding? let's hope not well you were a big part of their life maybe you're still friends and then they got engaged straight after you is there anyone out there who can answer that let's hope not. Well, you were a big part of their life. Well, maybe you're still friends. I mean, that's nice, I guess.

And then they got engaged straight after you. Yeah. Is there anyone out there who can answer that question for us this afternoon? Do they get engaged straight after they finish dating you? 0800-DIAL-ZM or text us on 9696. Bree and Clint. Yesterday we talked to someone who, we were talking about proposals and when they said no.

She actually proposed to her boyfriend of eight years. On a leap year. They'd been together for eight years and then this happened. Oh, hi. My boyfriend at the time said no. And then his reasoning was we were too young at the time. Yeah. And a few months later we broke up.

Yeah. And a couple of months after that he has a new girlfriend and proposes to her. Shut the front door. Oh, my God. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say anyone who's been with someone for eight years is not too young to get married. Because... It's a long time.

What are you doing? Otherwise, what are you doing? Yeah. You might be young. You might have been together since you were 16 and now you're 24. But eight years. Like, what have you got left to learn about this person? You know?

Like, if marriage is something that you want, you should know after eight years, I'd say. And you should have had that conversation, probably. Anyway, it's got to be a bit of a kick in the gut. So we've asked you, did they get engaged straight after they finished dating you? Rachel's here. Hi, Rachel. Hi.

Rachel, tell us, did someone get engaged straight after you? Pretty much, yeah. And then married. What? And married. So how long were you together? Me and my ex were together for two years. We got engaged after two years of dating. And then we

broke up and his ex came back to New Zealand and they got engaged and then married at the court and then he sends me photos, marriage certificate, just to rub it in my face. What? He's moved on in everything and that he doesn't want nothing to do with me

and that he can throw two years of, two years that we had together, throw it away in the rubbish pretty much. That's how I felt anyway. What a nasty thing to do. You're better off, Rachel, by the sound of it. Like, it's bad getting engaged and married, but then sending photos to your ex and to your ex-boyfriend.

What the hell are you saying there? Yeah, as the philosopher Ariana Grande once said, thank you, next. I feel sorry for his new partner. Hi, Catherine. Hi, Catherine. Hi. How are you?

Does it happen to you? Yeah, so basically I was with my partner for 11 years. We were engaged to get married. We ended up having a child together and when my son was 10 months old, we separated. And then he, about a year later, moved on to

someone else and then they got married. And I didn't even know. My son told me. You didn't even know they got married? What? No. Catherine, 11 years. Yeah.'t even know they got married? What? Catherine. No. 11 years. Yeah. How did you feel when you found out? Ripped off. Mixed emotions, really.

Yeah. What the hell? Like, we have a child together. Like, common decency to let me know. Yeah. Anyway. If you've got a child together, you should probably, would you have wanted to be invited to the wedding?

No. Hell no. No, you wouldn't. Okay. Oh, I, would you have wanted to be invited to the wedding? No. Hell no. No, you wouldn't. Okay. Oh, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I love how different a man's perspective is from us ladies, Catherine.

We're like, hell no. Well, your kids are moving at the wedding. Yeah, they can go have a nanny. Well, you could go and be the babysitter. Hell no. Poor Catherine. She doesn't need to be doing that. Thank you, Catherine.

Hi, Andy. Hi, Andy. Hi, how are be doing that. Thank you, Catherine. Hi, Andy. Hi, Andy. Hey, how are you? Good. Has this happened to you, Andy? I'm married for 13 and a half years, and we split up. And six months later, while still married to me, she's become engaged to someone else. Whoa.

That is quick. Whoa. I'm sorry to hear that, by the way. Yeah, that's horrible, Andy. You all Whoa. I'm sorry to hear that, by the way. Yeah, that's horrible, Andy. You all right? I'm good. I asked to split up for a week, and it was longer than that in my mind, but didn't want to freak her out too much.

And, yeah, she took off with the kids, two kids, 13 years of marriage, and off she's gone. Wow. That's quick. It's for the best, guys. I'll tell you that. Yeah, well, everything does happen for a reason. These things are always for the best.

Yeah, you're right, Bray. Can I ask, Andy, because you were married for so long and it was so quick after, does a part of you think that, you know, something might have been going on beforehand or no? Not at all. I now know that there was something going on beforehand as well. Yeah, the same. Unfortunately, that's generally the way, right?

Right decision for everyone, including yourself. All right, well, good man. Move on. You've got the right attitude. And we'll go to Vicky, finally. Hi, guys. How are you? Hi, Vicky.

Turning into quite a grim topic. Yeah. Isn't it? Isn't it? It is, isn't it? Let's talk about people getting their hearts broken. Did someone get engaged straight after dating you? Yeah, so I was with my ex for 20 years,

and she'd been married before and said, no, don't want to do it again. It's just a piece of paper, blah, blah, blah. We separated in the November, and she was engaged by the July. Oh, my God. Did you say 20 years? 20 years, Vicky. So she didn't not want to get married.

She just didn't want to get married to you. Oh, thanks. You're a dullard. I was going to say, don't say it out loud. No, don't allow. Sorry. You know what, Vicky? She didn't deserve you.

I didn't. No. She did not deserve you. What a piece of work that you gave 20 years to each other, and she couldn't even bring herself. What a piece of work, Vicky. I'm getting worked up. Let me ask my son. And told me on the day our house fizzled. What? couldn't even bring herself what a piece of work, Vicky! I'm getting worked up!

And told me on the day our house settled. What? What, you bought a house together and that's when she left you? No, no, when we'd sold it after that. Oh, that's when she told you she'd be married, right. I'm going to ask my signature question. Did you get invited to the wedding? Well, yeah, because I brought up two daughters were there, so they all wanted me to go

over. And did you go? No. No. Oh, I hope she stubs her toe on the coffee table. That's what I hope for her, Vicky. That'll show her. Kia ora. I'm Simon Bound, and I host Business is Boring,

We're looking for a morale-boosting request,

something to snap New Zealand out of whatever kind of funk they may be in. I think we're pretty good, but you know... Just an all-round banger I want today because it's a Friday. I don't want to mess around. No. I need something upbeat. We're already playing bangers, too, for Friday Jams, so it's got to be good.'t want to mess around. No. I need something upbeat. We're already playing bangers too for Friday Jams, so it's got to be good.

We'll just be in the mix. We've got five, six actually, six songs suggested by ZDM listeners, and we're going to play one as a morale-bursting request. And Hayden, today you get the honour of being the impartial judge. Welcome to the show. G'day, Hayden. Hey-o.

Hey-o. Hey-o. Hey-o. Where are you calling from, Hayden? Rainy Christchurch. Rainy Christchurch. How good's Christchurch, though? Christchurch is the best. Hey, y'all. Hey, y'all. Hey, y'all. Where are you calling from, Hayds? Rainy Christchurch. Rainy Christchurch. How good's Christchurch, though? Christchurch is the best.

It's pretty good here. Pretty good. Okay. My favourite part is that it's flat. There's no hills. That's right. That sounds like my running dream. As far as the eye can see.

You don't have a running dream. Yeah, it is. Christchurch, flat. No, your running dream is downhill. No, my running dream. And at the bottom, there's an Italian restaurant. Yeah, that's pretty much it actually. Have you been in my brain?

Okay, Hayden, here we go. Six songs. What's it going to be? Obviously Kelly Rowland is in there. We already said that. Work is a great option. But is it better than Kelly Rowland, Commander? Oh, that is a banger.

I've played this bit twice now, and each time Brie does the bass face. What's the bass face? Where the corners of your mouth go down, you're like, oh, yeah, that's cool. It's like you smoked a big joint or something. You're in the mosh pit and the drop hits it. Oh, that's a good shit. Okay, cool. Kelly Long, Commander.

Bass, Hunter. And there's not many Christchurch men who can go past a bit of Bass Hunter, right, Hayden? Yeah, no, I'd agree with that. You'd have to agree with that. Usher's in the mix today. This is one of the top five, if not three, Usher songs of all time. In my opinion.

In my opinion. That's in the mix. For the second time, actually, Mackie G's made the list. George FM. Welcome back. We're going to be playing these bangers all the way into Friday night. You want bass face. Mackie G.

And I think we just got one left. Oh, yeah, Celine Dion. Celine Dion making the cut. So it's an eclectic mix of tunes. And Hayden, today you get the honour of voting first. Two Kelly Rollins, one Usher, a bass hunter and a Mackie G. And Celine. get the honour of voting first. Two Kelly Rollins, one Usher, a Bass Hunter and a Mackie G. I'm going first. I'm really torn here

because I've firmly backed that Mackie G one, but what is the likelihood of that actually getting played? Yeah, so you need to be strategic. Can I go for a Bass Hunter then?

Bass Hunter. Okay, sensible choice. I'm going to throw a spanner in the works and vote for Usher, Caught Up. I'm pretty sure that's already played today. Yeah, I was just about to say the same thing. Oh, okay.

All right. Gets played a lot. All right. On Friday Jams. Then I'm voting for... Oh, he's panicked. Oh, I was really sick on that one. I'm voting Kelly Rowland, Commander.

All right. Well, then I'm... Oh, then I get the split vote. I might as well vote for one of those two. Well, yeah, if you vote for one of those two, they get played. But – oh, what's he – oh, he's loading something up. Today – What are you planning?

The winner of our morale-boosting request – Where? That's my gag. That's got less of a chance than Mackie G on getting played. Full disclosure, I don't actually have the whole Mackie G song. Oh, we don't. We only got that little bit. We'll load it up for next week, guys.

Otherwise we might have played that. The DJ is my bodyguard. You see the way he keeps me safe With the treble and that bass I feel free enough to party hard This dress won't go to waste Feels like I own the place, yeah P.I.P. to beat a bomb

Kelly Rowland and David Guetta are your morale boosting requests this afternoon. She's underrated, Kelly Rowland. Underrated? Yeah, deserves more credit. Is she the second best child? I'm not rating my child. Underrated, Kelly Rowland. Underrated? Yeah, deserves more credit. Is she the second best child? I'm not rating my child.

Well, at least rate Michelle. Okay, well, Beyonce and Kelly at the time. What about the fourth Destiny's Child? Oh, yeah, there was four in the beginning. Imagine being that one. She'd be kicking herself now, wouldn't she? She definitely wasn't her choice to leave. Yeah, there was four in the beginning. Imagine being that one. She'd be kicking herself now, wouldn't she? She definitely wasn't her choice to leave. Yeah, true. There were days when the sun...

This was a contender, by the way, and I think it was tough to be left out. Shall we go for it? I just know if I'd voted for Celine Dion, we would have been at stalemate, and then the decision would have been in Producer Ben's hands, and I wasn't willing to take that risk today. Who were you going to vote for, Producer Ben? I probably would have gone Us Stalemate and then the decision would have been in Producer Ben's hands and I wasn't willing to take that risk today.

Who were you going to vote for, Producer Ben? I probably would have gone Usher or this. Really? Yeah. Two very separate songs. I would have been happy with this. Let's do the one second of a song. No hesitating. You only got one second. One second.

Me versus Bree for you to win free mobile fuel. We guess songs as quickly as we can, and if you pick the winner correctly, you'll win. Jamie got through first, so you get to choose your player. Hi, Jamie. G'day. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks.

Jamie, who have you got this afternoon? Go Bree. All right, let's do it. She's coming off a win, so not a bad choice. Amber, I'm going to play for you. Bleach. All right, good luck, everybody. I'm not going to take Amber's excitement as, you know,

I'm not going to let it get in my head. Don't let anything get in your head. All right? Don't let anything get in your head. Except for the music. Yeah, me too. Anastasia's in charge of the game. Anastasia, tell us what we need to know.

This week's theme is female empowerment bangers and anthems. Oh, what? No. That's not included. No. I don't feel empowered when I listen to that song. Don't you? No.

It's definitely not a female empowerment song. No. No empowering happening there. Okay, all right. Here's song number one. Clint. Ariana Grande, God is Woman. Correct. Good song.

I feel empowered by that. I love that song. As a feminist, I would like to say I'm glad I got out of the blocks early. Yes. Glad to be on the board. Yep. After your whap is a female empowerment comment. Let's just forget that and roll into song number two.

Break. Oh. Shania Twain, Man I Feel Like a Woman. Such a great song. Crazy Forget I'm a lady Men's shirt Short skirts Oh oh oh Feeling a while Such a great song I wish we could play the whole thing As a feminist

I'm proud of you For getting that one correct You made me sick When you win We all win Okay And with that We're going to song number three

Bray Oh Slyzzo Juice Oh Lizzo Juice She is the epitome Of female empowerment For me The world needs

More Lizzo Yeah Right now We need new Lizzo Yeah I reckon it'll be soon I'm sure it's in the works Yeah

I reckon she's delayed it Because of COVID Yeah probably I reckon As soon as this COVID thing's over, you're going to hear so much good music. It'll be... Because all these artists can't tour,

so they don't want to waste their good songs. Yeah, I agree. All right, 2-1. Oh, my back's really against the ropes here. I've got to do this for women. Here's song number four. Great. Clint.

Oh! Yep. I'm coming out. Bye. The Pointer Sisters? Oh, I'm sorry. Clint? We play this song every day.

And that is I'm Coming Out by Diana Ross. Correct. I wasn't confident. I wasn't confident. So now we're at a draw. It's two all. Let's play song number five. It doesn't matter. Doesn't matter.

It's Gaga. Yeah. I'm going to need a song title. It's Born This Way. Yes! You literally played Brie's theme song as the deciding song. Oh, God, Jamie, we did it! Yes!

Woo! Woo-hoo! God, that was one of the most empowering. Go Brie, for the girls. Yes, Jamie, for the girls. Well done. Brie and Clint. And now it's time for Brie and Clint's most popular segment,

Friday-okey! I love Friday Oki. It's the best. I listen every Friday. I never miss Friday Oki. Thanks, Bree and Clint. You've made my Friday again. All right. Here we go.

Okay. Every Friday we do it. We go head to head in a singing competition. Neither of us can sing, but that doesn't stop us. No. It's a metaphor for life, you know. Don't let things you're not good at stop you from doing things. You should do them more often.

Do them anyway. People enjoy it. Push ahead. We've both spent 15 minutes with a professional audio engineer taking on Stacey's mum. Quite the handful. Yeah, it's a complex song. Yeah.

More than you realise. So you're going to hear mine, then you're going to hear Bree's, and then you're going to pick a winner for Friday OK. That's right. I'll go first. Here we go. Good luck to myself. Bree, can I come over

Does it? That's from 2011. That makes me feel old. Oh, yeah, yeah, same. Almost 10 years ago. This year's a write off Honestly I reckon that we shouldn't Yeah let's have Christmas

No we shouldn't have to age up a year this year Yeah Because what have we done? We've just stayed home all year It's a free life It's a waste Yeah it's a free life like a video game Yeah

Oh this is a cherry Just a theory I don't know who's in charge of that stuff Probably Jacinda but We had Jacinda on the show last Friday Producer Ben Have we got Jacinda on the show this Friday? No sorry mate

Wait it's Friday now Crusher Collins Can we get Jacinda on the show this Friday? No, sorry mate. It's Friday now. Crusher Collins. Can we get Crusher on? If you want to, yeah. What's she doing? What's she up to? Crushing it. Nice! Nice! Got some hot stats

that are going to blow your mind. You ready? I'm ready. Gear up, because new research has found that finding something suitable to watch has been pretty much one of the biggest stresses during lockdown in a household. Oh, right. Finding something you and your partner both agree on. Yeah.

Yeah. And it says that, in fact, it's so bad that couples are likely to have multiple arguments during the week over this particular thing. Yeah. There's all these pressure points, which don't matter, that cause us friction. Food is another one.

Food becomes everything. I'm hungry. Well, what do you feel like? I don't know. Oh, you're annoying me. You decide. Okay, how about we have burgers? No, I don't feel like that.

No, I don't feel like burgers. Okay, well, how about we have Chinese? No, I had that last like that. Nah, I don't feel like burgers. Okay, well, how about we have Chinese? Nah, had that last night. Well, you decide. Nah, I'll have whatever you want. I'm so annoyed. This is the biggest stat that blew me away, though. Are you ready?

I'm ready. So apparently, turns out, we spend, the average person, 187 hours, that's eight days a year, looking for something to watch on a streaming service. What a ridiculous waste of time. 187 hours just looking through things. I've got an idea for a feature. What?

They should have a screen. Do you remember Picture in Picture? Yes. So you could be watching something and then there was a smaller one. That was such a weird feature. But it was a good feature. What? They should have a screen. Do you remember Pitcher and Pitcher? Yes. So you could be watching something and then there was a smaller one. Yeah, that was such a weird feature. But it was a good feature. I don't know why as TVs got better they got rid of Pitcher and Pitcher. Who was you? Okay, you explain to me a time

when you would use... Half time on the rugby. So I want to go and change channels at half time but I don't want to miss out on any of the rugby. So put the rugby down in the corner on Pitcher and Pitcher, and then you surf the other channels and watch what else is on there. So that's, what, 15 minutes during rugby season once a week?

I just think, well, TVs can do so much stuff now. You've got TVs with Alexa in them. Why can't we just have that as well? Anyway, that's my idea. You want it all. They call it PIP. Yeah, Pitcher and Pitcher. Well, just while you're going through your it all. What do they call it? Pip. Yeah, pitcher and pitcher. Well, just while you're going through your lightbox, oh, it's not lightbox anymore, neon,

or your Netflix, whatever. You can have something playing. And it can be random. Why don't you just give us a random thing there so we're having a little teaser while we're scrolling. Because Netflix have said that they're coming out with the shuffle button, which might make this less time that we spend

looking for something to watch. Shuffle will be good if it's smart shuffle. I don't want you just to pick anything off Netflix for me. It has to be shuffle based off my algorithm. Stuff you've watched. Because I mean, remember shuffle on the iPod or something? Yeah. It was never the best.

Shuffle on iTunes died when everyone started backing up their iphones to their itunes and it was syncing your voice memos on there as well so or when you two force their album upon us yeah that was a weird time as well shuffles to the u2 album and you're like what the hell is this hello hello hello. Hola! In a place called Furnick, I'll piss off you two. For God's sake. Cut my... It's time for some signature Bree and Clint aviation

news. That's right. You've come to the place that does more aviation news than any other radio show. And at the moment, we can't fly anywhere. We're not overseas anywhere. Anyway, so what I have for you in aviation news than any other radio show. And at the moment, we can't fly anywhere. We're not overseas anywhere. No. Anyway, so what I have for you in aviation news today is a solution to that problem.

And, of course, who's come up with the solution? The Japanese. They solve everything. They do. They're so creative. They're always thinking ahead. You know? A bit quirky, a bit kooky.

And at first, you're like, oh, what are you doing, you weird Japanese? And then before you know it. And everyone else is like, good idea. Yeah, before you know it, they're like, great idea. I'm going to get on board with this. So before the end of the year, I reckon you will have adopted the Japanese trend that is virtual travel. Virtual travel? There's an airline in Japan that is offering you the ability to fly from Tokyo to Rome for only $90.

That's cheap. $90. But you can't fly. First class as well. You get to fly from Tokyo to Rome for only $90. That's cheap. $90. But you can't fly. First class as well. You get to fly first class. Something sounds dodgy. So what you do is you show up to the plane and you hop on the plane.

Okay. And you sit in your first class seat. Yep. And they close the doors and they do the safety announcement and everything. Mm-hmm. And then the flight starts, but the plane doesn't take off.

What? The plane stays on the ground, stays exactly where it is. But you get the flight experience. You get to sit in the real seat. You get served by real air hosties. You get to eat real plane food. You get to watch real plane movies. And then after a set amount of time,

they go, bing bong, we've reached our destination and they open the doors and you hop off and you go into a room and they give you a VR headset and say you chose Rome and you'd flown to Rome you then get to walk around a virtual version of Rome in the headset and then

when you've been around Rome you hop back in the virtual plane and you virtually fly home but you get all the flight experience that sounds horrific but you get to do all the flight experience. That sounds horrific. But you get to do all the flying stuff. I mean, sure. Like, not to be a downer on this, but I hate being on a plane. It's like one of the worst things ever.

Whoa. You're the wrong person to be presenting aviation news. No, well. Have you ever thought about that? Anything about a career change? So, no, well. Have you ever thought about that? Anything about a career change? So, let me ask you, have you ever thought after a long haul flight, oh, god, that was fun. That's the best bit.

That was fun. No, but it's 2020 and I feel like you need to take what you can get. Oh, sorry, I forgot. I forgot you've got that membership and you fly, you actually fly business class. Says you. It's different. Says you. What is it like up in premium economy and business? Is it nice up there?

Well, you could find out with this virtual travel. That's what I'm telling you. Finally, you can afford it too. If you enjoyed this podcast, why not give ZM's Fletchbourne and Megan a listen too? Subscribe on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. ZM.
