Hello everybody and welcome to the Brie and Clint podcast.
Earlier in the day there was a roast session that was put on Ben and myself by Brie.
Not just me.
No, it was and I found it.
No, producer Anastasia and I were both on the same team.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Don't be a little bitch about it.
No, in all honesty I can't remember what we're talking about.
Brie attacked us, Ben and I.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was you and I, yeah.
She attacked us for top and tailing.
Oh, that bed thing.
I just think, you know.
Let me set the scene.
It's 2020.
Let me set the scene.
What are you doing?
It's the very beginning of the Bree and Clint relationship.
We've been sent to Napier
to spend the night in a haunted prison.
That was a bad time, eh?
We were meant to sleep in a cell.
Yeah.
And we lasted until about 2.30 in the morning
when Brie decided she couldn't take it anymore.
God, you are really throwing me under the bus.
You said to me right at the start, you go, right, this is the plan.
We'll wait till like 2, 2.30 and then we'll get the hell out of here.
I wanted to say that.
I wanted to do that.
Oh, piss off.
Anyway, I said to Bree, no, you know what?
I respect you and you're not comfortable, so let's go home.
That's good of you.
How scary was it?
Oh, shit scary.
I was petrified.
Did you guys hear stuff in the night?
It was an abandoned prison and we were in the gang wing
Like it was not nice
Multiple people
Had been murdered
Do you pay to stay there
Or did you actually
Just stay
You can't stay there
No people don't stay there
No
Okay that is scary
Well you can't stay
In the bit we were in
Actually there is a
There's a
There's a backpackers
On the other side
I think school kids
And stuff do trips there
Shut up Anyway we've Recroduced a bit At 2. I think the school kids and stuff do trips there. Shut up.
Anyway, we reproduced the bed at 2.30 in the morning.
Mate, come and get us.
Annoying because I was sleeping.
And he was sleeping.
So he drove up and got us.
Oh, you poor thing.
We were in a fucking prison.
They hadn't booked a room for Bree and I because our room was meant to be the prison.
But Ben had a room.
And in his room, he had a double bed and a single bed.
And I said to Bree, why don't you take the single bed?
Why don't you have a bed to yourself?
Of course I was going to have the single bed.
She was still scared and shaking at that point.
Ben and I will top and tail like gentlemen.
No.
And we give you your own bed.
Isn't that just a game?
And then today, two and a half years later, out of nowhere,
she decides to start attacking Ben and I for top and tailing,
saying we should have slept face to face.
I just think if I had a choice, why would I sleep next to someone's feet
and why wouldn't I just sleep next to their head?
What's the big deal?
Because I wanted to give him his personal space.
Nah.
What do you think, Anastasia?
He's getting no personal space when your feet are in his face.
You're still laying next to him and pretty much your dicks line up anyway, regardless.
Yeah.
No, it's true.
Well, I just think, yeah, you don't want someone's feet by your face.
Like, produce Anastasia.
If you and I, say we rocked out because you and I share, like, rooms usually,
and there was one bed, we would go, okay, we'll just sleep in the bed.
I'd say to Bree, which side do you want?
She would say.
The right side.
The right side.
And I'd say, cool, I'm on the left.
Pillow wall?
No.
Not a big deal.
I've given you my caveat, though.
Yeah.
I'm a very humpy sleeper.
And I say that openly because it's not intentional.
Like, I'll just latch on.
So you think you would hump Ben.
So that means it doesn't matter if you're top and tail
and you're going to be humping something.
It's less awkward.
And I mean this from a friendship point of view.
If you hump his knees.
No, I would be hugging his legs.
It's less awkward than hugging his torso.
And that means his penis would be around your stomach.
Yeah.
The bed was big enough.
There's lots of space in between.
I think we nailed it.
I think it was fine.
No one complained.
Yeah.
Except two and a half years later.
I just think, I just don't get it.
Yeah.
It doesn't make sense to me.
Do you want Ben and I to sleep together?
Is that what would make this better?
I think, yeah, to show me
that you guys aren't
Don't say it.
What's the word? You want to say homophobic.
Aren't homophobic.
You guys should sleep in a bed.
Produce Anastasia, can we get
a bed in the studio
and the boys have to sleep over in the double bed?
100% we'll live stream it.
We'll live stream it.
We're talking IG lives, we'll live stream it. On social media.
Yes.
We're talking IG lives. Yes.
We're talking Facebook lives.
We can put TV on here in the corner.
Is Twitter still a thing?
Twitter is a thing.
Yeah, Twitter is a thing.
You know what would really prove that I wasn't homophobic?
Kiss Ben on the lips.
From the middle of the live stream I just started humping him.
What about it?
Dry humping.
No, I'll be happy. Producer Ben,
you walk in here and you guys kiss on the lips.
No, we can't do that at the moment, mate.
We're in level three.
Come on, read the room.
As soon as we get to level one.
Next week, level two.
Now she'll never know that we're kissing afterwards.
Kiss!
Kiss!
Kiss!
No, we kiss. Remember when you and I kissed Tom Sainsbury that time? Oh yeah, that was good. Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss Kiss

He's a homophobic.
What a homophobic.
He tops and tails because he's a homophobic.
I just thought
I'll leave it at this
last thing I'll say
I just thought
as you got older
you grow out of the top and tailing.
If anything it was a real novelty
and I quite enjoyed it because I hadn't top and tailed with someone since, it was a real novelty and I quite enjoyed it
because I hadn't top and tailed with someone
since I was a kid.
And it was like camping.
It was almost like natural.
I was like, oh, okay, well, it was just top and tailing.
Were either of you wearing socks?
Great question.
Don't know.
I never sleep with socks on.
We know that Ben sleeps...
We might have done courtesy socks.
He wasn't naked when I was sleeping.
No, I wasn't naked.
In fact, we were gentlemen
and we both slept with t-shirts on because Bree was in the room. That's true. I didn't. I had my top off. No, you wasn't naked. In fact, we were gentlemen and we both slept with T-shirts on
because Bree was in the room.
That's true.
I didn't.
I had my top off.
No, you didn't.
Was it a baggy T-shirt?
You had a Nike on.
I was like, that's weird.
It's Peter Alexander.
She had pre-packed pyjamas.
Like she never planned to stay in the prison at all.
No, I didn't.
I did not.
Okay.
There's nowhere left to go, so let's go to the podcast.
Awkward again.

Just before 4, you're going to hear an activator.
It's got today's question in it.
And if you know the answer, $500 cash.
Thanks to our friends at Save My Bacon.
Pretty simple.
Up next, though, there's a list that's come out that says,
these are the things that boomers do that us millennials hate
oh yeah i don't know whether to believe it so you and i as we always do we're gonna put it to the
test yeah and actually see if boomers do these things oh boil their broccoli until all the color
comes out of it that is so specific why do boomers over boil their vegetables you know yeah well some of them i think you're generalized i don't want to name any boomers specificallyboil their vegetables? Do they? Yeah, well, yeah. Well, some of them.
I think you're generalizing.
I don't want to name any boomers specifically.
I think it's your mom and dad you'll name me.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Dad, only dad.
I apologize to you guys.
I don't agree with it.
We'll get a boomer on the show next.
Bree and Clint, ZM.
Obviously, yesterday we were talking about how us millennials don't like to use the full stop.
Yeah, we find it offensive.
We find it offensive.
It's confronting.
It's a bit confronting.
There's an article out today that talks about all the things that boomers do that us millennials really don't like.
Oh, right. Okay.
Yeah, so it's a bunch of things.
Like cause global warming.
No, that's not on the list.
It should be on the list. It's not. It's stuff like leaving vo. Like cause global warming. No, that's not on the list. It should be on the list.
It's not.
It's stuff like leaving voicemails is on there,
ringing doorbells, watching live television.
Oh, coming over unannounced.
Yeah, that.
Assuming everyone younger than them is a technology whiz
and also having their phone always on loud.
Yeah, right.
And big text. Yeah, big Yeah, right. And big text.
Yeah, big text.
They love some big text.
I thought, you know, well, this is a bit rough.
Do all boomers like to do this?
Yeah.
So I thought we would test our resident boomer on the show, my mum,
and just to see how many out of these she likes to do.
All right, let's get her on the phone.
She's a boomer, so we will be calling her landline.
Hello?
Hello, Mum, and welcome to Do You Like It?
Oh, Brianna.
Are you ready to play?
Oh, mate, I'll have to be, won't I?
Okay, let's go, go.
Go, go.
All right, Mum, pretty simple game this afternoon.
I'm going to ask you a few questions and you just need to tell me
whether or not this is something you do.
Oh, no.
All right.
Thing number one, Mumma Di,
do you like to leave voicemails on people's answering machines?
Of course I do.
Otherwise they never ring me and they
never answer my calls.
That's a tick. That's one point to mum and I.
I hate it when people leave voicemails. Me too.
Just text me, god damn it.
Number two.
Do you like to ring
doorbells when going over to people's places?
Of course I do.
That's the most, well, you have to do that.
Again.
You don't know what they're doing.
Send a text.
Yeah, I hate that.
I wish if you came in my house you just climbed through the window like a normal person.
All right, Mama Di, next up on the things that you actually do, do you like to watch
anything on live television?
I don't think anything's live, is it?
No, I'm talking about like on TV, not on a streaming service,
which you told me that you were watching that show the other night on TV.
Yeah, of course I do.
So far, a big three yeses for all three.
I don't even have an aerial on my house.
Can't even get live TV.
Here comes number four.
Mum, how many times have you asked me to help you with technology?
A thousand times.
That's a big tick for number four.
And the last one, to round it out.
When I just called you just then, was your phone on loud?
No, it wasn't.
Was it on vibrate?
Normally it is.
Was it on vibrate?
Normally it is.
Yeah.
There it is.
Five out of five in things that boomers do
that us millennials hate,
and you've gotten five out of five, Mum.
Nice work.
Everyone likes a bye break.
Oh, whoa.
And you know what? That'll do.
And that's where we end it.
That's the perfect end of the segment, actually.
Buzz you later, Mumadai.
Okay, boomer.
How's everybody feeling today?
How's our motivation levels?
I'm going to need some motivation
You need some motivation?
Okay cool I've got some for you
And for everybody listening actually
I encourage you to turn up your radio
For the next minute or so
Are you going to give one of those
You know inspirational talks
That they do in the movies?
I'm not
But a movie star is
One of the sexiest movie stars
In the world right now.
Okay.
Who also happens to be
an Australian as well.
Oh, Hemsworth.
His name is Chris Hemsworth.
Yes.
It's got to be the Hemsworths.
It's Thor.
And I'm going to play
this whole thing
because I think it's good
and I think you'll get
a lot out of this.
All right.
So, like I said,
turn your headphones up,
whatever you need to do.
Here is Chris Hemsworth
to put a pep in your step this Wednesday
Hey you
Yes, yes, yes you
Today is your day
You got this
You're absolutely crushing it at everything you do
From your job to maintaining a social life
To pursuing your passion project
You are killing it
Ignore anyone who tells you otherwise
Because you, you're amazing
The only thing more beautiful than your smile
Is your personality Yeah, I said it You're more than capable to take on the world, the
whole world by storm. Speaking of the world, did you know that it's a better place because
you're in it? I mean, your mum brags about you all the time. Dogs love you. You're strong,
you're confident, you're intelligent, you're charismatic, you're the total package. On
a scale from one to ten, you are an eleven. You make me want to be a better man.
You are, you're bloody brilliant.
You're f***ing brilliant.
Don't forget it, okay?
Do not forget it.
Take the day by storm and remember this.
I'm proud of you.
I'm so proud of you.
Well, thank you, Chris.
Thank you so much.
I'm not motivated, but I'm definitely feeling something else.
There's something about it.
Something about that speech. The reason that it resonates so well. And I've spent the day trying I'm definitely feeling something else. There's something about it, something about that speech,
the reason that it resonates so well,
and I've spent the day trying to figure out what it is.
Yeah, it's because he looks like that.
Partly.
It's also because of how he sounds.
And how does he sound?
He's Australian.
So, Bree, I thought,
why don't you attempt to do the same thing for us?
Why don't you use that beautiful Australian voice of yours
and offer us the same level of motivation?
We're all going to stay out of this because this is –
I hate when you do this.
This is nothing to do – we don't have the ability to do this, do we, Ben?
We can't do this.
We can't do this.
Yes, you can.
And Astasia's got a Christchurch accent.
You can't help, can you?
No, I'm sorry.
I find people from Christchurch very inspirational.
Sexy.
Yeah.
I'm really looking forward to this, by the way.
Yeah, we all are, and we need this.
Everybody needs it. I've had no warning to ride anything. I'm really looking forward to this, by the way. Yeah, we all are. And we need this. Everybody needs it.
I've had no warning to ride anything.
I'm actually going to turn you guys off.
I'm going to turn myself off.
And it's just going to be Bree with some motivation for New Zealand.
Do I get any music or anything?
No.
G'day, New Zealand.
This has been sprung upon me. A bit like the situation we're all currently in.
But you know what?
That doesn't mean we're not capable of doing it.
And that's what I've got to tell myself right now in this moment of live national radio,
that I can do it, believe in myself, push through it
and trust that somewhere deep down within, I'm made of it.
I believe in you, New Zealand.
You're hot, you're kind and most of all, you've got a sense of humour
that can get us through this tough time.
Kia kaha, New Zealand.
Cheers, mate.
You're well done.
I'm made of it.
I'm made of what?
It was a bit shaky at the start.
It started to become a lot about you and less about me,
the person wanting to be motivated, but you really pulled it back.
Yeah. I kind of blacked
out and I was just picturing
Chris Hemsworth.
Bree and Clint
from iHeartRadio.
This is the latest live from
LA with Dean McCarthy.
Dean, give us the update on the Britney
stuff and her trying to get out of the
conservatorship.
Here's the deal.
So basically it is on pause until February 2021.
The overview, Britney tried to get her father taken off the conservatorship.
That has not been approved.
It will remain as it is until February 2021.
Basically, Britney has to essentially bring together some more evidence as to why she doesn't want her father on the team.
But interestingly, there was a little bit of a win today for Britney Spears.
Her sister, Jamie Lynn, she has just been named the trustee of Britney Spears' will.
So this is the first time this has, you know, been enacted.
And what that means is that, you know, she's the one that, you know,
would be in charge of inheritance, her children, what they get
if something were to happen to Britney is the new revelation.
But the conservatorship is staying in place.
Just to refresh everyone's mind, Britney wants her dad off it.
She wants this other really cool person to run it,
but Britney's dad wants him back on the team
and some other lawyer that quit mysteriously in March 2019,
also back on the team.
Yeah, obviously there's a reason she doesn't want her dad on the team.
She's obviously a jerk about it.
Did I not call it yesterday or the day before that Jamie Lynn should be
stepping up?
I literally did.
I was like, where's her sister Jamie Lynn?
And then now she's like taking over all this trustee stuff.
Yeah, but we're bringing Jamie Lynn in to look after the will.
Why are we planning for Brittany's, you know, why are we?
Her dad needs to piss off.
Yeah, well.
Let's be real.
She needs someone looking out for her who has her best interests at heart,
for sure.
Speaking of, there's a documentary about Britney Spears' life.
I think it's on TVNZ On Demand.
Yeah.
And it's like one of those daytime movie type of things.
Oh, like a behind the music type thing.
Yeah.
Yeah, real dramatic.
Yeah.
All these accounts from people who definitely have never met Britney Spears.
Quite interesting.
Yeah, good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hopefully Britney gets to where she wants to go pretty soon, though.
That is the latest brought to you by the University of Auckland.

Big news yesterday out of the chicken
world, Brie. KFC,
because of COVID-19, are dropping their famous
slogan. It's no longer finger-lickin' goods.
Are they dropping it forever?
For the foreseeable future, as
far as I know. They've said it's not the
right thing to do at the moment. Please
don't lick your fingers. And it's ancient
too. That slogan goes all the way back.
Listen to this.
This is the first ad that featured it.
I like my chicken bigger, like it's good.
Feels like my tummy's just asking for some Kentucky Fried Chicken.
Good chicken, Colonel.
Thank you.
That's so old, it's hard to listen to.
You can tell by the quality, it's old.
So you can see here, right on the bucket, we've got some KFC chicken here.
It says right there, it's finger-lickin' good. No more. It's gone. So you can see here right on the bucket, and we've got some KFC chicken here. It says right there, it's finger licking good.
No more.
It's gone.
So are they taking that off all the branding and all of the packaging?
Yeah, they're going to have to for COVID.
Makes me kind of sad.
So today, I thought I'd spring a impromptu taste test on it.
If we can't lick our fingers,
then we can no longer eat KFC with our hands.
Oh.
So today, Brie, we are going to attempt to eat KFC with a knife and fork.
I love eating it with my fingers, though.
You can't.
You can't.
No more.
So I would like you to take yourself.
Oh, do I get first pick?
Yeah, take yourself a piece of chicken from the KFC bucket.
But take it with a fork, okay?
Got it.
Don't get this with your fingers anymore because COVID, okay?
Oh, what's that piece?
I'm going to take this piece.
There you go. Bree has a big, juicy breast.
Oh, yum! I do love the breast.
And for this segment, to keep it interesting,
I'll take a wing, okay? One of the
harder pieces to eat with a knife and fork. Yeah, that'll
be a lot harder. Producer Ben and
Producer Anastasia, what do you have?
I've got a breast as well. You've got a breast,
Anastasia? He's a breast man.
He is.
I don't know what it is.
It's a piece of chicken.
He's a breast man.
Now everybody,
please,
without using your fingers
to consume the chicken,
bon appetit
and tuck into this meal
using a knife
and fork.
I do love some KFC.
Don't you just?
Pinky up.
Okay. Okay. As I say, it's the first time I've ever eaten KFC. Don't you, Justin? Pinky up. Okay.
Okay.
As I say, it's the first time I've ever eaten KFC with a knife and fork.
And I've got to be honest with you guys.
Yeah.
Tastes exactly the same.
It's bang on.
It's bang on.
I knew it was going to taste just as good.
And the only reason I said yes to this segment was so we could get KFC.
Yeah, actually, this is the only reason I planned this segment,
was so we could get Ross Boss to pay for our KFC.
So I'm voting KFC without licking the fingers is still knife and fork looking good.
That's what I would say.
Just as good.
Just as good.
Ben, you want to weigh in on this?
Yeah, if not better.
Better, probably better.
Yep.
Anastasia?
Yeah, 10 out of 10 for that.
10 out of 10.
Okay.
Great.
Okay, well, this is absolutely...
Where's the potato and gravy?
It's in the bag.
It's in the bag.
Don't worry, we made sure we got everything.
We've also got some chippies too.
Do we have to eat the chippies with a knife and fork?
I guess we do.
It's everything, mate.
It's everything, yeah.
Everything, right?
All right.
This segment was brought to you by...
Ross Boss's credit card.
Ross Boss's credit card.
Bon appetit, everybody.
Stay safe out there.
God, I love this job.
The age-old relationship question of do opposites really attract?
What are your thoughts on that?
I think there has to be an element of something that you don't have
that attracts you to that other person.
But then there also has to be, for a relationship to work, there has to be an element of something that you don't have that attracts you to that other person. But then there also
has to be, for a relationship to work, there has to be some
common ground. I think opposites...
So you're sitting on the fence. No, no, no. I think opposites
attract initially and that's what
can draw you to someone
instantly. But to build a relationship, you've
got to have some foundations where you agree on things.
Some similarities. Like if every three years
you guys are yelling at each other about who you're going to vote
for in the election, I don't know if that's
sustainable for the rest of your life.
So you're saying you reckon if you have different
political beliefs, it
won't work?
No, it can work. I just think
that if your political views are important
to you, they probably inform
a lot of your decision making and a lot of your attitudes.
So if one of you
hates people on the dole
and the other one wants to donate to charity,
then it's probably going to cause a bit of friction in the relationship.
Yeah, probably.
It's quite interesting.
I think I looked up because I was like,
I really want to get to the bottom of what science has said
and if there's been studies done about it.
Apparently since the 1950s,
social scientists have conducted over 240 studies to determine
whether similarity in terms of attitudes, personality traits, outside interests, values
and other characteristics actually leads to attraction to someone.
Yeah.
So whether or not, you know, being the same actually connects you more.
Yeah, right.
Apparently they found something that they believe associates with being similar to someone,
you're actually more likely to be interested in them.
Yeah.
I think you hit the nail on the head in there.
As long as your values align, the other stuff doesn't matter.
I think if I like to go rock climbing And you don't
It doesn't really matter
It's not make or break
Unless you propose a rock climbing wedding
Yeah
Well
If your values are the same
It doesn't matter if you like different music
Your base
If your base is the same
If your core values are the same
If one of you likes spicy food
And the other doesn't
You can work around that stuff
It's not a deal breaker is it?
No
I want to know though from people because I believe opposites
really can attract as well.
I think it really can work.
Like you said, if you've got those same basic, you know,
undertones of the same core values, then yeah, it can definitely work.
But do you reckon there's people that are together
where they just know that they're really completely opposite?
It's like I said, I'll use my relationship as an example.
How opposite are you and Lucy?
With values and that, we're completely aligned
and that's why we have a strong relationship
but there is never more of a difference between the two of us
when it comes to partying, for example.
Yeah, you love to party.
She likes a quiet night in.
You know they're saying go hard or go
home? Yeah. I like to go hard.
She likes to go home. And Lucy likes to go home.
And that's fine. Yeah. It's fine.
We just have different. It's not a deal breaker. We go to the
party in the same Uber and we head home
in different Ubers. And then you sleep in the
spare bed. And I sleep in the spare bed. Because you smell like alcohol.
And then the next day she spends the whole
day going, how bad do you feel?
And I go, pretty bad. And she goes, I feel great. And then the next day she spends the whole day going, how bad do you feel? And I go, pretty bad.
And she goes, I feel great.
And on that day, on the day after, we have never been more opposite.
I bet.
Because I'm hungover and she's not.
I bet.
I want to know from people where it's even more drastic.
Like maybe, you know, you have completely different professions
and when people say, oh, like what do you do
and what does your partner do, they're kind of like a bit amazed.
Oh, I know what you mean.
Like is one of you a prison guard and the other one a prisoner?
Is that the sort of thing you're getting for?
Is one of you a defence attorney and the other one is a defendant?
Yeah, like kind of but not really at all.
Is one of you a service station attendant and the other one a car?
No, I don't.
No, no, you've taken it too far.
Do you have an example that you could offer?
So say one of you is a vet and the other person.
Is a butcher.
Yes.
There we go.
Exactly.
All right.
So completely opposite.
Got it.
0800 dial ZM.
Are you and your partner complete opposites?
Or you can text us on 9696.
I was on the right track with the car one.
It's just...
Were you?
Yeah, well, we'll see what we get.
Bree and Clint.
Do opposites really attract?
I mean, you always hear that saying, don't you?
Opposites do really attract.
A study has come out and said that they believe when you're more similar
that it seems to work out better.
I call BS.
I think both work.
I think both can work.
I think both can work for sure as long as you have, like we said,
the same core values.
You do see some couples where, you know,
they're just dating the female or male version of themselves though.
You know?
You go, I know why you guys picked each other.
Because you love yourself.
Because you are literally the same person.
Yeah, you love yourself.
And that's cool for you guys too.
That works for you guys.
Have you ever thought about that?
And they eventually start dressing the same.
And then they end up with a dog that somehow it's a dog
but it also resembles them as well.
Yeah, I know a few of those couples.
Yeah, anyway.
We want to know if you and your partner are polar opposites today, right?
Yeah, we want to know if it works, but you know you guys are opposites.
Is that the deal for you, Ashley?
Yes, completely.
Why do you think you and your partner are opposites?
So we've known each other for about 15 years now, but back in the day, he grew up with the wrong crowd of people
and, you know, doing all that stuff.
But I was a Jehovah's Witness.
Oh, whoa.
Completely different.
Yeah, complete opposite.
And even to this day,
he's like Bogan and I'm like fancy.
I love that.
Are you still a Jehovah's Witness?
No, I'm not.
Right, I was going to say,
because it kind of sounds like
you just recruited him to the church.
No, no.
You guys met somewhere in the middle.
Actually, I love that you're meshing your fanciness with his bogan-ness
and then together you come out somewhere in the middle,
like a medium amount.
Yeah, right?
Yeah, it's nice.
Yeah, daily life, I'd like, I want to go for a walk or something.
And he's like, I just want to work on my car.
He's like, I see your walk. Why don't we do and he's like, I just want to work on my car. That's good.
He's like, I see your walk.
Why don't we do it on a motorbike?
Hi, Logan.
Hi, Logan.
Oh, g'day.
How's it going?
Good, thanks.
Are you and your partner complete opposites?
Yeah, yeah.
No, she absolutely loves animals,
like to the point where she couldn't even be a vet
because she doesn't like seeing hurt animals.
Right.
And I'm a professional slaughterman.
Oh, my God.
Whoa.
How does she feel about that?
Oh, she didn't like it at first.
We've been together for over five years now, married for two.
And she still loves you.
You just don't bring your work home with you.
I mean, obviously you don't bring your work home with you,
but you just don't talk about your work.
Yeah, she used to tell me she didn't want me to do it
because she didn't want people to go,
oh, you know, what's your husband doing?
Oh, you know, he kills things for a living.
But she's getting used to it.
She's getting used to it.
That's so interesting that you guys still make it work.
Look forward to bringing your partner to work day.
There's a lot of interesting texts coming through on the text machine.
Someone texts through and they said,
my partner is a vegan and I am a butcher.
Oh, similar.
Very similar.
Someone else said, I'm a farmer and my partner is a tattooist.
Very different professions.
Ruth's here.
Hi, Ruth.
Yeah, hi, guys.
How are you?
Good, thanks, Ruth.
Is this the case with you and your partner?
Are you complete opposites?
We're complete opposites.
I'm an extrovert, he's an introvert.
We've been married for 37 years and it really works.
Really?
So when you guys got together,
is that what attracted you to him,
that he was like really different to you?
Yeah, he was just like so calm and chilled
and I'm just so like crazy and out there.
He was literally hiding in the corner
and Ruth was like,
hey, I'm Ruth.
What's going on?
Yeah, he's just like,
he's just an absolute balance for me.
I like extreme sports.
We've just come down Cardrona at the moment.
We've been snowboarding.
Yeah.
And he still snowboards for me.
I wakeboarding,
I drag and wakeboarding,
but he's always a calming influence.
So it's just amazing.
Levels you both out a bit.
Are you guys married?
Yeah.
We've been married for 37 years.
That's amazing, Ruth.
See, opposites really do attract.
They can.
Yeah.
You guys are my favourite, by the way.
Oh, thanks, Ruth.
Thank you, Ruth.
Say hello to your calm husband for us, all right?
Bree and Clint.
Welcome to the morale-boosting song section of the show.
Every day of lockdown, we have committed to playing a song that will boost the mood of the nation.
That's right.
You and I have picked from a range of songs that people have suggested,
and it's not just us picking.
We've always had someone on, you know, a moderator,
and I'm not doing anything else on this segment
until I have my best friend Tristan back on this segment.
Do we have to use this guy?
Tristan!
Brie, how are you?
Oh, yeah.
Welcome back.
How are you, darling?
Welcome back.
You know, every time you come on our show, it brightens my whole day.
It brightens my day.
So then I would just have to say, Clint, get out of the office.
Get out of the studio. It's the
Brie and Tristan show, not the
Brie and Clint. Why have you got an Australian
accent now?
I'm just so excited. I don't know why.
Where are you right
now, Tristan? I'm coming
at the supermarket, walking around
like a headless bloody
chook. Yeah, right.
Well, you are going to be the...
You're my favourite.
You're far from impartial
but somehow
you're the judge
for this segment again today.
I think he's on the fence,
Tristan.
Tristan, are you ready
to help us pick
a morale boosting song again?
Of course I am.
Of course I am.
Flint, as long as
you're not there.
Okay.
Here comes
the first song for today.
Is it the White Stripes' Seven Nation Army?
Okay.
That sounds all right.
That's all right.
Sounds not too bad to me too, Tristan.
Second option is Tina Turner's Simply the Best.
Simply the Best! Simply the Best.
This is everything.
Tina Turner, white and small.
Doesn't she, Tristan?
I mean, the legs on that woman.
Amazing.
Oh, yeah.
And for her age, she is a babe.
Such a babe.
Diva queen.
All right.
Remembering that Tristan is totally impartial.
The third choice today is one of Brie's favourite songs.
I hate this song.
DJ Otis.
Don't you hate it, Tristan?
I don't hate it at all.
I love that song.
It's bad.
Oh, my God.
You guys finally disagree on something.
I hate this song.
It's amazing.
Oh, okay. Oh, you don't disagree on something. I hate this song. It's amazing.
Oh, okay.
Oh, you don't like it?
He's changing his mind. You don't like it now that Brie doesn't like it.
Right, okay.
Exactly, exactly.
I'm going to follow on what Brie has to say.
You're such a sheep, Tristan.
Oh, my God.
Can Tristan be on every show?
He's the best.
Here's another suggestion.
Thanks, Brie.
You're welcome, babe.
Love you.
You're way better.
Love you, too. Love suggestion. Thanks, Bree. You're welcome, babe. Love you. You're way better. Love you too.
Love you too, darling. I love you more than the, what's his face
sitting next to you. Yeah, me. I know. I got it.
This is another suggestion from
Blue.
And All Rise.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Tristan. Oh, decisions, oh, oh. Tristan.
Oh, decisions, decisions, decisions.
He's gone Australian again.
That's it.
Those are your options for today.
White Stripes, Seven Nation Army, Tina Turner, DJ Ota's Hey Baby, and Blue All Rise.
Oh.
Okay, okay, okay.
Tristan. Talk to me on this one.
What are you thinking? What are you thinking?
What are you thinking?
What gave you the funny feelings?
You know how you and I have that thing where we get the gut feeling?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know?
Yeah, we do, we do.
I've got that gut feeling coming to me now.
I'm voting for DJ Otis, by the way.
I would have to go for the Queen again.
You'd have to go.
Tina Turner.
Tristan, that's who I was going to go for. Yeah, I would have to go for the Queen again. Tina Turner. Tristan, that's who I
was going to go for.
I'd have to go for Tina. Tina, I'm
sorry, New Zealand, if you don't like it,
it's tough. Get out.
This is Tina. We're about to turn all of you.
Yeah, this is
the brilliant Tristan show now.
Alright. Once again, thanks for your help,
Tristan. Good to talk, man.
And I'd love to come up to the studio and say hi to you guys.
He's backing out for the song and everything.
Yeah, all right.
This is Bree and Tristan.
This is Tina Turner on ZN.
Well, you come to me, come to me wild and wild.
Oh, and you come to me.
Give me everything I need
Give me a lifetime of promises
From a world of dreams
Speak the language of love
Like you know what it means
And it can't be wrong
Take my heart and make it stronger
You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
You're better than anyone
Well, anyone I've ever met
Ooh, I'm stuck on your heart, babe
I hang on every word you say
Ooh, tears of God Every word you say tears apart.
Oh, baby, I would rather be dead.
And your heart sings a song every night and every day.
When your eyes get lost, I get washed away
Just as long as I'm here in your arms
I could be in no better place
You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Yeah, anyone I've ever met
Ooh, and I'm stuck on your heart, baby
Well, I can't hold every word you say Oh, tear us apart
Cause baby, I would rather be dead
Each time you leave me, I start losing control
You're walking away with my heart and my soul
I can feel you even when I'm alone
Oh yeah baby, don't let go
Oh, hey Oh, oh
You're the best
That's a morale-boosting song.
It was meant to be for the whole country,
but I think it was for Brie and Tristan from Christchurch.
It was.
It was to cement our love for each other.
Currently walking the aisles of Countdown.
But we still had time to call in and help pick the song today.
What a legend.
Brian Clint.
Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick.
Nickname Origins.
Can I update that intro?
This is where we try and guess your nickname origin story.
Did you forget what it was?
No, a suspense of course.
You tell us your nickname, we try and guess
how you got it. Pretty simple, the best
nickname origin story
deemed by us will win the fuel.
Did you forget how to say origin? Yeah.

so she had to wear her brother's undies to school.
Oh, see, the deeper we go, the less likely we are to get it.
Just say she got caught in a pair of Tidy Whities.
Cassidy, did you get the nickname Tidy Whities
when you were caught in a pair of Tidy Whities?
No, I was
playing rugby and this boy
accidentally pulled my pants down instead of
tackling me and everyone saw my

Why do you randomly get goosebumps, Goose?

Explain, explain.
So I have a extra little bit of cartilage on one of my ears.
You did it, Bree.
Amazing.
You did it.
Well done.
I had no faith in you whatsoever.
That was so left field, but I felt like...
So we went two from three again.
Two from three.
Tidy Whiteys, Goose or Nemo, someone has to win the free mobile fuel.
I liked all of them today.
Can only be one.
I feel like Goose is quite interesting.
Goose, congratulations.
You've just won a free mobile fuel voucher.
Woo!
Did that give you goosebumps?
No.
Apparently sitting in a nice, warm car.
Sweet.
Bree and Clint. I'll tell you what, 2020 New Zealander of the Year
is shaping up to be one of the most interesting competitions of all time.
Yeah, it is really heating up.
Yeah, I don't think there's ever been this much interest
in who is New Zealander of the Year.
We covered it on the show just this week.
Obviously, Blooms is up there, Danny Bloomfield.
Yeah, Jacinda Ardern.
Jacinda Ardern, worthy candidate. Mitt there, Daddy Bloomfield. Yeah, Jacinda Ardern. Jacinda Ardern.
Time to start, of course.
Worthy candidate.
Mittens, the celebrity cat.
From Wellington.
From Wellington is in there.
Big shout out to Mittens.
We'd love to have you on the show.
We would love to secure an interview.
Actually, Ben, have you reached out to Mittens for an interview for this show yet?
Any word on that?
You're not allowed to.
They say no interviews.
No interviews.
No, she doesn't want it.
The cat nor the owner.
Okay. Oh. Mittens, the celebrity cat't want it. The cat and all the owner. Okay.
Mittens the Celebrity Cat from Wellington is nominated for New Zealander of the Year.
Take nothing away from the cat.
Just because they don't want to be interviewed by us.
That's no reason why Mittens the Cat shouldn't be New Zealander of the Year over the Prime Minister.
Done a lot for the nation.
A new nomination has surfaced today because nominations are still open and this one coming
right out of left field, none other
than Kiwi pop sensation
Dane Rumble.
Dane Rumble
has received multiple
nominations
to be 2020 New Zealander
of the Year. People love a bit of rumble
in the jungle, don't they? They do.
They love the rumble from down under, yeah.
Dane, who currently resides in Sydney and is not making music,
is actually making luxury watches at the moment.
He lives in Bondi, doesn't he?
I think he lives in Bondi.
Got a model wife?
Yeah, he's got a beautiful wife.
Yeah, beautiful children.
He's killing it.
He got out of the game at the right time.
And he goes, you know what?
I'm on the high.
Yeah, I'm on the high.
I've been nominated for music awards.
I'm going to get out now.
I'm off to Aussie to live the good life.
Yeah.
And now, in 2020, he's getting his rewards,
being nominated for New Zealander of the Year.
Dane himself issued a statement and he said,
this comes as a bit of a shock, to be fair.
Obviously, I'm very grateful for someone to submit me
for something like this,
but I'm sure there are plenty of other people
more worthy than myself.
And you know what?
That's why he's nominated.
He's underplaying it.
He's humble.
Yeah.
He's humble.
He's the people's champion.
He's humble.
It's rumble.
It's Dane Humble.
It's Dane Humble.
So watch this space.
Middens of the Kitten, watch your back because Dane Rumble. It's Dane Humble. It's Dane Humble. So watch this space. Mittens the kitten, watch your back because Dane Rumble,
he's on the way.
Not in the playlist, obviously.
He's on the way.
Stand up.
He's on the way to be New Zealand of the Year.
Dane Rumble.
Brian Clint.
God, we talk about this cat a lot at the moment.
Mittens, the celebrity cat from Wellington.
The cat that is nominated for New Zealander of the Year
and who was also awarded Wellington's Keys to the City by the mayor.
Very famous cat from Wellington.
The cat with 57,000 Facebook friends
has been banned from certain establishments in Wellington.
Is there anywhere this cat doesn't go?
Well, it no longer can make its way into COVID-managed isolation units.
They are worried that Mittens, the Turkish Angora,
will spread COVID-19 by getting in there and nuzzling up to all the people
who are in there in managed isolation, and then it'll head back out.
And, of course, everyone in Wellington picks up mittens and has a cuddle.
They're worried that there could be a mittens cluster.
So, no, sorry, no-go mittens.
You're now banned.
It's a bit of a floozy.
Yeah.
Also, shout out to everyone, all the dogs and the dog owners.
I mean, we're talking about a cat.
But it is International Dog Day today.
Yeah.
And big shout out to all the dogs.
Way to break this.
This is the cat's moment, right? Yeah, but we've talked
about mittens. Anyway,
mittens, stay out of the COVID
hotels, please. That's it. I just wanted to just get it
out there, okay? Just get it out there.
We want to ask you this afternoon, because people
in managed isolation no longer
have the chance to meet a celebrity cat.
And that would have really picked up their spirits.
You know, that would have got them through their 14-day stay.
But no more, they don't get that chance.
So we want to ask you this afternoon, have you met a famous animal?
I mean, define famous animal.
Well-known, sense of celebrity about it.
Will you tell me the animal you've met
And I'll tell you if I classify it as famous
I met the mascot
At Dreamworld one time
Oh no it was Movie World and it was Scooby Doo
No
It was a famous
And an animal technically
Give me a live animal that you've met
I was down in Queenstown
And I went dog sledding
and all the dogs that were pulling
my sled were all the dogs,
the husky dogs that were in the
Taylor Swift Out of the Woods video.
There you go.
They look
like wolves, but they're actually huskies.
Wait, can we rewind to the bit where you were
dog sledding? I know.
Who goes dog sledding?
So when I was on holiday there with my family,
everyone was like, I want to go bungee jumping.
And then everyone was like, I want to go jet boating.
And I was like, I want to do the dog sledding thing.
You can do that?
Yeah, you can in Queenstown.
It's like probably two hours outside of Queenstown.
It was one of the most amazing things I've ever done.
If you drive for two hours, you are definitely not in Queenstown.
Well, that's where we were staying at the time.
It's actually near Kadrona.
I'm jealous.
I'm jealous because I've never met a celebrity animal.
I've never met an animal that's been in a music video, a movie.
I've never even met an animal from an ad, you know.
Yeah.
I've always wanted to meet Gin the Otter who was the famous.
Gin the Otter.
Oh, she was a very famous New Zealand otter who kept escaping from
her enclosure, her otter enclosure.
Well, you've got a kid now, so you might
meet Dorothy. Dorothy? From the
Wiggles. No, again, not a real animal.
That's a person in a suit. That's horrible.
Any of our producers
met a celebrity animal before? Anyone out there?
I've met Shrek, not the
ogre, the sheep.
You met Shrek the sheep? Yeah, Shrek
the sheep. See, I've never heard of Shrek.
Did Shrek not cross the Tasman?
No, I don't think so. Right. It was a big
deal. Shrek was a sheep who went
missing in the New Zealand high country for something
like seven years. And man, he was
such a hairy sheep.
And anyway, we found him
and we got him. He went missing for seven years.
He should have cried wolf. He was on the news every night for like three weeks.
And then we ended up sharing Shrek the Sheep live on TV.
No wonder other countries make fun of us for sheep, eh?
This is front page news in this country.
No, I think that is front page news.
Where did you meet Shrek the Sheep producer Anastasia?
It was down in Christchurch and I was going from the library to school.
Prove it. How do you know it was Shrek? and I was going from the library to school. Prove it.
How do you know it was Shrek?
Because I was a massive Shrek fan, and they were like,
oh, come over here and meet Shrek.
And then I was like.
Freeze go great point.
I mean, all sheep look very similar.
How could you be sure that it was Shrek?
No, it was like in the middle of.
Because it's a great racket to be running.
You just get 15 sheep sent into different cities.
So it was in the middle of town.
The poor guy was in a wee pen and they were like,
come take a photo with Shrek.
Yeah, but he could have just literally written a sign,
this is Shrek the sheep, pay $2 and have a photo.
In Anastasia's defence, they could have just told you
those dogs were from the Taylor Swift video as well.
That's very true.
Thank you.
They did look like them though.
I mean, very similar.
Yeah, I'm sure Shrek looked like Shrek, too.
Oh, 800 dials at him this afternoon.
Have you met a celebrity animal?
Any.
Grumpy cat?
Great.
If we can get grumpy cat.
Gin the otter?
We'll take that.
If you call up and say you met Farlap, how are we going to prove you wrong?
Yeah, well, that's a great point, too.
You know?
Well, we'll censor that in your voice.
We'll take your word for it.
Yeah.
Brianne Clint.
Have you met a famous animal before?
Celebrity animals,
it's who we want to know
this afternoon.
New Zealand actually has
a rich history
of celebrity animals.
Was there any animals
on Lord of the Rings?
Oh, Narnia.
Yeah, Narnia.
That was filmed here.
I think they're all CGI,
those ones.
You reckon?
Real animals though.
These are some
Kiwi celebrity animals.
You might not know
all of these ones.
Happy Feet the penguin was a celebrity penguin
who showed up on the Kapiti Coast.
We nursed him back to health and then released him
into Antarctic waters where he should be,
and then he got eaten by a shark.
The Kaikoura earthquake cows.
Oh, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern's cat that had the thumbs
paddles the cat.
Spot the dog from the Telecom ads,
Cash and the Elephant from the Auckland Zoo,
Dexter from Tuck's Wonder Dogs,
obviously Shrek the sheep, Jyn the otter,
Opo the dolphin, and the elusive Canterbury Black Panther.
Oh, yeah, I've heard about the Black Panther.
Yeah, so if you've met any of those,
we'd love to hear from you this afternoon,
or any other celebrity animals you might want to tell us about.
Start with Xander. Hi, Xander. Hey, you might want to tell us about. Start with Xander.
Hi, Xander.
Hey, mate.
How are you?
Good, thanks, Xander.
Have you met a celebrity animal?
I haven't met a celebrity animal, but my uncle has.
Skippy the bush kangaroo.
Shut the front door.
Your uncle trained Skippy the bush kangaroo?
Yeah, for the entire three seasons it was on in the late 60s.
And I've met him a few times, so does that count?
That's amazing.
I can't believe your uncle trained – there wasn't just one kangaroo, right? I was going to say, yeah, show secret.
Yeah, was there more?
No, actually there was about six of them at 51 times.
So I just kept them in rotation in case they got tired.
What a genius show to centre the whole show around a hero kangaroo.
I mean, brilliant.
Because kangaroos aren't generally regarded
as heroes in Australia, are they?
I mean, you know, it depends.
They're more of a villain animal.
Nicole, aren't they?
No, why?
Didn't that guy have to beat that kangaroo up
because it was trying to attack his dog?
No, they're not villains.
Are they not?
No.
Right.
Not generally.
They're not super aggressive.
That one was.
Oh, okay.
Oh, geez.
Kangaroos have been cast in a bad light in this country, haven't they?
Nicole, hi.
Hey, guys.
How are you?
Good, thanks, Nicole.
What celebrity animal have you met?
Aslan Othmanio.
Oh, you...
Okay.
So you have.
Was that here in New Zealand?
Yeah, at Zona Wildlife Park.
Yeah.
So he was a real lion, not
a CGI lion. He was a lion. I think he had
another name, but I can't remember it.
They need to get, um, what was
the TV show that
Lion Park was about?
Oh, I can't remember.
It's Zion Wildlife Park, eh?
Yeah. Bree, there was
this show based around, it was kind of like New Zealand's
version of Tiger King.
Oh, my God, we've got to find that show.
That's a total throwback.
It'll come to me.
We'll find it.
Lily's here.
Hi, Lily.
Hi, Lily.
Hey.
What's the celebrity animal you've met?
Oh, Jin the otter.
You met Jin the otter?
Yeah, he came down my driveway.
Wait, is Jin the otter a male otter?
I think so. Right.
It might be female. How would you know?
How would you know?
Jin
came down your driveway?
Yeah, yeah. I was called
the otter spotter. The otter
spotter? Is that how they
reported you in the news? Lily the
otter spotter? That is such a great nickname, Lily.
That's awesome.
Love that.
Good, you're in the lead.
And Jane, celebrity animal, who did you meet?
Hello.
I met online.
I had a chat to Coco the Gorilla in the mid-90s.
Coco the Gorilla.
Who's Coco the Gorilla?
You'll have to refresh our memory.
Related to her run?
Coco was totally famous because she was taught how to do sign language.
So she was the first international gorilla and she had like a little kitten and everything
and she would like fully do sign language.
Amazing.
Okay.
Oh, yes.
I have seen Coco the gorilla.
Yes.
And you met Coco online.
What?
On like Chatroulette or something?
There was like this, it was on the news and there was kind of this global thing saying
if you can get in online, you can ask Coco some questions.
Right.
And so I just tried and I got on.
So I asked her some questions.
What was your question that you asked Coco the gorilla?
Your one shot, your big opportunity to interview the gorilla,
what did you ask?
I just asked her if she really loved her beautiful little kitten
and she came back and said, I adore my kitten.
So, yeah, that was it.
That was my one question.
I would have asked her if she knew any swear words.
Yeah.
She signs them back to you, and she's like, keep that to yourself.
Thanks, Jane.
Great story.
Thanks, Jane.
Bree and Clint.
It's my birthday. It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger.
All right, Birthday Banger.
We'll take three people's birthdays and we'll figure out what was number one on their 16th

Not for me.
No.
Okay,

It's a fun song though.
It's alright.
It is,

And we got to say Masty
a whole bunch of times.
Moana's here.
Hi, Moana.
Hi, Moana.

Oh, thank you.

16 in 2007 on the
9th of April. Moana,
this is your... 1991. What's my
birthday banger? This is yours.
She knows it.
Does Akon
suit you? Is that a good birthday banger for you?
It's a good one for me, mate.
I think that's a nice one.
I like it.
Love it.
Thank you.
We'll get one more for Carolyn.
Hi, Carolyn.
Hi, Carolyn.
Hi, how are you?
Good, mate.
How are you?
I'm good, thank you.
That's good.
What's your birthday, Carolyn?
It's the 25th of the 7th, 1976.
All right, you were 16 in 1992 on the 25th of July.
And on that day, this was number one.
Wow.
I like big butts and I cannot lie.
Other brothers can't deny.
Now when a girl walks in with an itty-bitty waist
and a round thing in your face, you get sprung.
Banger.
Baby Got Back, does that suit you, Carolyn?
Oh, it definitely does.
It's the one that makes you laugh, but it's good.
Such a banger.
I can't believe that was in 1992.
Brie has performed this at two out of the three Friday Oaky Lives that we've done.
Hopefully we can get to the South Island so that you can do another one.
I hope this COVID thing ends soon.
That's my vote, Carolyn.
I loved Moana's energy today.
Courtney was great too, but I'm voting for Carolyn's birthday banger.
Oh, yeah.
All the girls were
really lovely today,
but I've got to go with
the old faithful baby got back.
Oh, my God.
Becky.
Carolyn, you've won.
Congratulations.
Oh, thank you so much, guys.
Thank you.
You've just made my afternoon.
Oh, have a good afternoon, mate.
Thanks for calling.
Brie, this is birthday banger
on ZM.
They only talk to her
because she looks
like a total prostitute, okay?
I mean, her butt
is just so big.
I can't believe it's just so round.
It's like out there. I mean,
gross. Look.
She's just so
black. I like big butts and I cannot lie. You other brothers can't deny.
Now when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist and a round thing in your face, you get sprung.
Wanna pull up tough cause you notice that butt was stuffed.
Deep in the jeans she's wearing.
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring.
Oh baby, I wanna get witched up and take your picture.
My whole boys trying to warn me but that butt you got makes me so horny. Ooh, romper, smooth skin.
You say you want to get in my bins?
Well, use me, use me, because you ain't that average groupie.
I seen her dancing to hell with romancing.
She's sweat, wet, got it going like a turbo vet.
I'm tired of magazines saying flat butts are the thing.
Take the average black man and ask him that.
She got to pack much back.
So, fellas.
Yeah.
Fellas.

Hell yeah.

But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda.
My anaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hun.
You can do side bends or sit-ups, but please don't lose that butt.
Some brothers want to play that hard roll and tell you that the butt ain't gold.
So they toss it and leave it, And I pull up quick to retrieve it

Brian Clint.
It's 4 minutes 15 of Sir Mix-A-Lot.
Talking about how much he likes bum bums.
Pure gold. 2015 of Sir Mix-a-Lot. Talking about how much he likes bum-bums.
Pure gold.
It's a winner of Birthday Banger.
When did Nicki Minaj remix that into Anaconda?
Like 2015, I think. And then it was a hit again. And it was a hit again. And that song. Yeah. Remix that into Anaconda. Like 2015, I think.
And then it was a hit again.
And it was a hit again.
That song there is the great granddaddy to this song.
What is?
Wap.
That song, you know?
No way.
Is it not?
It's like the precursor to this. No, Kia, My Neck, My Back is the precursor to this.
Yeah, true.
It's the original.
They're all downstairs focused, that's for sure.
Here's a weird one for you.
What if you, say, were childhood friends with someone,
really good mates for a long time, but then, you know,
as life happens, you lose touch.
And these days, pretty easy to find someone if you go,
oh, I wonder how such and such is.
You go onto Facebook.
Type in their name. Instagram. Facebook. Type in their name.
Instagram.
Yeah.
Type in their name and boom.
You can reconnect with them.
Pretty easy.
Yeah.
Recently, I've had this thought where I wanted to get in touch
with a childhood friend of mine.
Yeah.
Her name's Sasha and we met when we were 12 years old
and we met playing softball and there was a group of like five of us who were all like good mates
but we were from all different parts of Australia.
Yeah.
And we would play in like different rep teams together and stuff.
But we were probably good friends until well like into high school
and just after high school.
But then afterwards we all kind of, you know,
went our separate ways and did our own thing.
I had this thought probably a couple of months ago where i was like i wonder what she's up to
because i have not seen her in 10 years and i came to the realization that i had not seen her
or seen anything about her because she's not on social media oh one of those people yeah yeah so
i googled everything went on facebook went, went on Instagram, went to all
of our old friends to see if she was like
under a different name. Has she ever
been on social media? Like do you ever remember being
Facebook friends with them? No. Because I've
had that before where I'm
like, oh, I was definitely friends with
such and such and you go to search them up and they're just
not there. They've either unfriended you and
then gone dark or they've just deleted
their Facebook altogether.
I can never remember her having a Facebook.
Right, okay.
Well, that makes it extra hard.
Yeah, so it makes it extra hard.
Like, where do you start?
How do you even connect with someone? You know what people used to do?
Yeah, what did they do?
The phone book.
And they would open the phone book in the city
that they thought the person lived in
and you could go to the library.
This is not what I would do, by the way.
This is what I've seen on movies.
And open the phone book and you'd look them up and then you'd try that number.
And there would only be a limited number of what's her last name?
Shannon.
So there'd only be so many S Shannons in the phone book.
Right.
So you'd try those.
But then what if she got married?
This is the issue.
Because she could have been married by now.
Take this sentence out of context.
This is the problem with women.
But it is. It is because
they can change their last name.
A lot of women change their last name when they get married
and then it's gone from your social
media. Some people keep it in there. So it's like
in brackets, the old last name.
On Facebook, yeah.
But anything could happen. Your friend could be in witness protection.
Well, yeah, we don't know.
I literally, it's a really
weird feeling because everyone else from my past is on social media.
There's another option that you haven't considered.
What's that?
They've blocked you.
What?
That there's something that happened and they don't want anything to do with you and so they've blocked you.
It's just, I don't know if it's a possibility.
You reckon?
No, I don't reckon.
No, I don't think so.
Just a possibility.
The last time I heard, I'm pretty sure she got married.
Right.
And I'm pretty sure she was studying law and became a lawyer.
So the only thing I've done is I've – this is so creepy.
Everyone listening is probably like, leave her alone.
Obviously she doesn't want to be found.
I've put her name –
I've put a poster up around town.
I've put a honing pigeon with the scent from.
I've had her picture placed on bottles of milk.
To try and track her down.
No, I Googled her name in lawyer firms in Brisbane
because that's where we used to live.
And a name came up on LinkedIn,
but then I can't get to her profile because it's like all private.
Oh, you've got to get LinkedIn Pro.
You've got to pay for LinkedIn.
Oh, LinkedIn Pro.
Yeah.
I don't think I'll ever pay for that.
Get in there.
I don't want to.
I hate LinkedIn for one reason specifically.
People can see if you've visited their profile.
Can they?
And I was stalking someone today.
Who?
No, I'm not going to say.
Tell us.
No.
Tell us.
No, I'll never say.
Tell us.
And then I accidentally clicked a link to their LinkedIn, and I was like, damn it, I'm not going to say. Tell us. No. Tell us. No, I'll never say. Tell us. And then I accidentally clicked a link to their LinkedIn and I was like,
damn it, now they're going to know.
This will help for you because you want Sasha to find you.
Yeah.
So this is the plan that I've come up with.
Yeah.
I think the first plan that I have is that I'm going to contact the other
girls that we were tight friends with.
Yes.
I'm going to see if they've got like, if they've been in contact with her.
Yeah.
Or if they're still friends with her.
Yeah.
And if they've got a phone number for her.
Good place to start.
I think that's the best place to start.
Go with that.
And they'll go, oh yeah, we've got a WhatsApp group.
We'll add you to it.
Yeah.
And then mystery solved.
Pretty simple.
It could be the end of the saga.
Or the other option, because I thought I had her old phone number in my phone.
And turns out it's just a contact with a name.
There's no number.
But I've got my old Australian phone back home in my flat.
I'm going to open that phone.
I'll bring it in tomorrow and I might have her old number.
We should just call her up.
Can we call it on there?
Yeah, we'll call her on there.
Don't pre-call it.
No, I'm not going to pre-call it.
Because we're invested now.
We're involved in this. Just see if we can track her down.. Don't pre-call it. No, I'm not going to pre-call it. Because we're invested now. We're involved in this.
Just see if we can track her down.
We're on the Sasha mission.
Yeah.
Okay, if you have any other stalking advice,
this is where pro stalkers come into their own.
If you are one of those people, tips9696.
A few people texting already.
Someone said, look at the electoral roll.
Jesus.
They'll have her details.
Wow.
Okay, watch this space.
Bree and Clint.
It's time for a round of...
That don't impress me much.
Been a while.
Got the looks, been a while.
But it's our segment where we get the chance to get stuff off our chests.
And Shania Twain backed us up.
It's perfect, really.
Really.
It is perfect.
She leads us in.
If you want to be a part of it, you can always call.
I know 800 Dials did him and join this segment. But I'm happy to get us started today. Yeah, you kick us off. If you want to be a part of it, you can always call on 0800-DIALS-DINHEM and join this segment.
But I'm happy to get us started today.
Yeah, you kick us off.
All right, here we go.
Okay.
So Dan Carter never played for the Blues at all.
He was just never going to play.
Do you know how many posts I did to play. Do you know how many
posts I did about this?
Do you know how excited
I was?
You're a Chiefs fan.
I'm a Dan Carter fan.
In fact,
stick him in the
North vs South game.
I thought they might have.
Yeah,
and because he signed
for the Blues.
And at least you can
go watch the game.
Screw you Anastasia.
Yeah,
speaking of that
don't impress me.
Make him play for the North Island
because he's signed with the Blues.
Cantabrium for life.
Okay, Cantabrium for life. You're up.
Okay, so you got the Facebook update
but you don't have a news feed anymore?
That don't interest me.
I just read.
It's just quotes.
I only get quotes.
Your Facebook's broken, dude.
Yeah, it's broken.
It's inspirational, but I don't see any baby photos or mom posts.
You've just got a quote from Helen Keller, and that's it.
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure.
The fearful are caught as often as the bold.
You're our social media manager and your Facebook doesn't work.
It's broken.
Does anyone else have this problem?
I want to fix it.
Oh, my God.
Okay, Ben's up.
How will you think you're special?
How will you think you're something else? Okay.
We're about to come out of lockdown, but I still can't drink.
He's on really strong antibiotics.
No drinking for you.
You can have those Heineken Zeros.
They are good.
Once you get gonorrhea too, you've got to really blast that thing.
You have to really go hard, go early, as Jacinda says.
Go hard, go early, yeah. the antibiotics. Go hard, go early.
You'll be stronger in the long run like Jacinda
says. And hopefully you don't
have a relapse.
Hopefully there's not a spike in.
Who's next?
Keita is next. Hi Keita.
Hi Keita.
Keita, are you there? There she is.
Okay, you're up
Good luck
Okay
When you're fined
For a fine you've already paid
That'll do it
That'll really tick you off.
What was the fine for, Keita?
It was for driving with a passenger.
Oh, you're restricted?
Oh, no.
Yeah.
By the sounds of it, you're about to get a fine for driving while on the phone, too.
That was another one.
All right, all right, all right.
Bree, take us home.
Okay.
So I'm going to the toilet and then I realise someone didn't change the empty toilet roll.
Hashtag, it's number two.
Hashtag, you use an en suite and it could only have been you or your partner.
Exactly. So I'm angry at myself Well maybe you need to upgrade
Now that you're having kids
Kids? Where'd the second kid come from?
Well there could be another kid soon
Do you know something I don't know?
Yeah, because once you warm the oven up
You never know, you get itchy feet
I don't believe my oven likes being referred to as an oven
Yeah, but in the oven That's how all of I don't believe my oven likes being referred to as an oven.
Yeah, but in the oven.
That's how all of us ladies like to refer to our uteruses.
There's a house that's coming. Wouldn't it be good if it was an oven and you could just turn it to fan bake
and it means that it all happens like a couple of months faster.
No, fan bake's not good.
It means you're windy.
If you are looking for a house, which I know that you are,
because, you know, more babies on the way,
this house I think is for you.
Right.
Because, you know, it's nice and big.
It's two bedroom, two bathroom.
That's smaller than the house I've got now.
But wait.
It's two bedroom, two bathroom upstairs.
Oh, okay.
Right.
I'm finished with the rest of the features.
That's an important detail.
If you're going into real estate, you need to be faster with the sentence.
Okay.
It's very luxurious.
It's a historic house.
Comes with, you know, a fully new renovated kitchen.
It also comes with a fully equipped prison.
Excuse me?
In the downstairs part of the house.
Complete with nine cells.
So technically.
Nine children.
Eleven bedrooms, which is good.
Steel bunk beds, half a bath.
The cell door locks by one button. Sorry, back to the half a bath, the cell door locks by one button.
Sorry, back to the half a bath bit.
Yeah, it just says half bath.
Sorry, how does half a bath work?
I don't know.
Because for it to be half a bath, you either cut it long ways,
which means all the water comes out of the bath,
or you cut it across and it's just a really shallow bath.
I think it's a shub.
You know where they turn a shower into a tub?
We'll say it's a shub then.
Anyway, I'm not the real estate agent.
You keep marketing your prison house.
So the site is actually 2,500 square feet.
And it used to be the Howard County Sheriff's House in jail.
Well, I picked up on that.
This is how they're
marketing it. It's extremely
unique. Extensive
renovation in 2005.
Captures modern high
end finishes with traditional
architecture and character. And the
best part, it's connected
to the home, is a legitimate
jail. I'm looking at it right now.
Downstairs is a disgusting jail. I'm looking at it right now. Downstairs is a disgusting jail.
And, I mean, I don't mean to sound ungrateful,
but I don't really care what upstairs looks like.
Look how beautiful it is.
Downstairs is literally a jail,
which means not only is it a jail, it's haunted as well.
That building is 100% haunted.
Yeah, you've got a point.
Hear me out.
I'll tell you the price and then you'll decide.
All right, yeah, yeah.
It ends, The article ends with
possibilities are amazing
with this property. Renovator's dream.
Renovator's dream and it could be all yours
for only
$350,000.
Actually, maybe I am interested.
