ZM!
Let's go!
Now let me see you dance!
ZM's Brie and Clint.
Woo!
Kia ora, New Zealand.
Kei te pihi a koe.
That means, how are you?
Nga mahi.
No, that's not the right response, but I like that you're giving it a go.
I'm giving it a go. I'm taking lessons.
I'm really interested.
Are you taking Māori lessons?
Yes.
Are you?
I am. You should start practising it on the show. I've only had two, but I'm looking to Are you taking Māori lessons? Yes Are you? I am
You should start practising
I've only had two
Alright
But I'm looking to have more
Fantastic
And then I will practise it here
On national radio
There you go
We are in the middle of a glass studio
At the moment
Where a gang of
What looks like 14 year old boys
Have been hanging off the building
Via ropes
Scrubbing our windows all day
It's the most extreme job I've ever seen.
Yeah, and they all look like they've taken a day off school to do it.
They look like they're part of an adventure group
and they literally scale the building cleaning windows.
The budget for Outward Bound has been cut
and now if you sign up to it,
they just send you around to office buildings to do window cleaning.
Can you imagine telling someone that's what you do for a job?
Oh, you'd have to get danger money. Do you get danger money for that? If do for a job? Oh, you'd have to get danger money.
Do you get danger money for that?
If you do a job like that, can you text us and tell us,
do you get a bonus because you might die?
I reckon you probably would.
Some jobs you do.
You 100% do.
What about those guys that climb up that tiny little ladder
to the crane cab?
Oh, the crane tower operators?
And those swing around in the wind too.
That's dangerous, that job.
I'll stay here in the safe
confines of the radio studio. Thank you very
much. And at five o'clock, you could
win yourself some cash, which will mean you can
probably take the rest of the year off work.
50 grand up for grabs with Secret Sound.
Sound Keeper Annabelle will be on, and if you know
what it is, you can have a guess at five o'clock.
There's two days to go for that. Up next,
I want to talk about a lady over in the UK
who's gotten out of a parking fine
and I know we've heard every excuse under the sun.
She didn't use an excuse.
She used...
She used her boobies?
No.
Oh.
She used the wonderful world...
Yeah, hurry up, I'm getting a phone call.
Okay, we better go then so you can take that call.
Anyway, I'll tell you about it next.
Bree and Clint.
It's rudimental.
Hello?
This is Clint's phone.
This is Bree and Clint.
Look, if you've recently got a parking fine, this is going to help you out
because you can give this a go because it's gotten a woman over in England
out of a parking fine in the last week.
Can you get a man out of a parking fine?
Probably.
You don't need to be a man or a woman.
You can be either or.
Okay, then I'm listening.
So her name was Jane and she recently got slapped with a big parking fine
because she was parked on yellow lines and it was out the front of her home.
Yeah.
So apparently the 53-year-old said that she'd been loading her car with cakes
and stuff for a fundraiser and unfortunately she was hit with an upset stomach and she needed to park really quickly and run inside
and deal with that situation.
Anyway, how she got out of the parking fine is pure brilliance.
She decided that she would put a bit of creativity into her excuse
and she would own it and write into the council with a poem.
Do you want to hear it?
Yeah.
This is what she wrote into the council.
Dear sir or to whom it may concern, a parking fine I did earn.
I was parked outside my house on yellow lines
intending to move and dodge your fines.
But on Sunday I was loading my car with food and cakes for a horse show not far. Can you imagine the person at the council reading this?
It goes on. lease my poos. I couldn't move until all was done.
But when I returned, the fine was done.
I thought it'd be better was to discreet and leave the car parked
in the street.
Next time I'll move and not be a pain.
But if I get short, I'll shit in the drain.
And that worked.
They wrote back also in a poem.
Did they?
Yes.
Oh, no, this is quality public service.
This is what you want out of your council workers.
These are the people we need at Auckland City Council
or councils around New Zealand.
Give us a reply.
So they replied with,
in considering people's circumstances,
the council is often led song and dances.
It's difficult to know the truth and quite often we ask for proof.
But the photographs the officer has taken shows that indeed
you had been bacon.
These cakes had been loaded in your Land Rover on the double yellow lines
it was parked over.
So on this occasion, we are pleased to say the council accept your appeal
and you do not have to pay.
That is so good.
And better than the response they could have sent.
Sorry your situation sounds a bit shit, but here's a form for a direct debit.
That's good.
That's good value.
Because I think if you put a bit of flair into your excuse,
you don't have to go the whole hog and write a poem
But if you're willing to put in the effort
I would love to hear from someone after hearing this
If you get a parking fine
You should write into your local council with a pole
And see if you get off
Yeah
It's brilliant
It's worked for this lady
And I mean kind of awkward
Because you don't really want to talk to your local council member
about that situation.
No.
Also, you don't want photographic evidence of that too
because quite often they ask for pictures.
You're like, here's the picture.
I've got him.
It was a real situation.
What do you want to take calls on this afternoon?
Do you want to take calls on?
I mean, I don't want to take the generic calls on, oh, how'd you get out
of a parking fine? But
I want to hear from people
about how much
they've actually got in
parking fines. Oh, real disaster
cases. Yeah, the real disasters
where you've like banked up a bunch
of them and you haven't paid. You know those people
who get them and then they just chuck them in the glove
box? Those people give me anxiety.
Because you have 28 days to pay it or something like that.
And then it starts compounding.
It starts getting bigger.
And you get in their car and you open that centre console bit.
And because they're curly, the parking fines too, they like spring out at you.
They go, surprise, there's 50 of us.
I've got one in my car right now.
How long has it been there?
Since I went to F45 last, so that was a fair while ago.
You're okay. I think you've got about a week. I think I've got another week left.
Okay. 0800 dial ZM. How much do you have in parking fines right now?
Yeah. And we'll take the really big parking fines. I want to hear from people who've got
absolutely huge ones. I want to hear from someone who has to guess.
ZM's brilliant client. There's a brilliant story that's going viral at the moment
And if you've recently got a parking fine
You might want to try this
Because a lady over in England
Recently copped a fine for parking on yellow lines
And she wrote a poem into the council
Yeah
And it was brilliant
A poem about her
Having an upset stomach
Yeah, that's a nice way to put it
That's not what I was going to say. It was brilliant. Anyway,
the council ended up
writing back to her in poem form
and she got off the fine.
Did it work for parking fines? Do you think it
would work for speeding fines?
I mean, there was that story I
told where I was undoing my
pants. No, you weren't speeding though, you were
swerving. I was swerving. Do you know someone wrote
to me and said that they tried it
and they got off their ticket?
I'm just spreading the good word.
Yeah, good.
Well, good, good.
So long as everyone's safe and happy.
Yeah, it's good.
Go for it.
We're asking this afternoon on 0800DIALZM,
how much have you accumulated in parking fines?
Char.
Hi, Char.
Hi, Char.
Hi, how are you? Good, how are you? I'm great, thanks. Have you got a few parking fines. Char. Hi, Char. Hi, Char. Hi, how are you?
Good, how are you?
I'm great, thanks.
Have you got a few parking fines, have you?
Oh, my goodness, not myself,
but happened to have a relative
who was living in Central Wellington
and everyone knows there's no parking in Central Wellington
and she started getting quite a few fines
and then realised, well, once you've got a few,
let's just keep going,
and they amounted to $20,000.
Stop it.
Are you serious?
Absolutely.
Those people who just give up and they go,
oh, it's too big now, I'm just going to forget about it.
That is the dumbest logic because it's going to catch up with you eventually
unless you go to Mexico and grow a moustache
and pretend to be a different person for the rest of your life,
and then you never get to see your family again.
But you know what the best part of it is?
So eventually, obviously, my relative had to go to court.
And they got wiped.
And she got a couple of hundred hours community service working at a Salvation Army office.
Oh, you're good to go then, Char.
That's awesome.
So for a young lady who likes to go shopping, she
got her $20,000 fine
wiped because she got to go shopping
every Sunday. Plus, working in a Salvation Army,
you're in there to find the hottest Wellington
fashion there is. You know that people in
Wellington only shop at op shops.
And this is the other reason why people in Wellington
ride fixie bicycles, because there's
no parking and they can just chain it up
to a lamppost.
It's so true.
She was winning, Sha.
She was, what a winner.
It was a really insightful call.
Thank you, Sha.
$20,000.
Sarah, the bar's pretty high.
How much parking fines have you got?
Okay, so it wasn't $20,000 worth, but $240 worth of parking fines in two weeks.
Oh, girl.
That sucks.
What were you doing?
Oh, so we had a parking lot by my work,
and I kind of just kept on forgetting because I worked so late,
I just forgot to put in my parking.
And so then I kept on getting tickets.
And then once I got up to $240,
I was like, crap, I probably should do something.
So does this poem thing appeal to you?
Well, I actually ended up being awesome. How?
I said, because we had this
thing where you could text a park, you could pay on
your phone bill, and I was like, hey,
I text a park, every single
one of them, why are you charging me?
And they were like, oh, I'm so sorry about
that, we'll just wipe them, and I was like,
yo. Genius. That's amazing.
I love it when someone gets away with a bold-faced lie like that.
Absolute lie.
All they had to do was ask for the screen caps of the text messages
and the jig would be up, but they didn't bother.
I love that the person on the other end was like,
oh, she's probably telling the truth.
I can't be bothered.
Geordie, how many parking fines?
I have about $250 worth of parking fines, all for different things.
Have you got them right now?
Well, I paid one today that was $51 from February,
but I've also got a $65 one for parking in a Wilson's car park over the time.
And then all the other ones are roughly like $12 to $15, $21 ones
for parking over the time on the outside of the place that I work at.
Now, Geordie, there is part of me that says live for today
and just wind down your window and grab those parking fines
and just chuck them out into the air.
I was going to say just get your parking fine
and put it on someone else's car.
And hopefully they just pay it.
I've thought about it.
Oh, that's a lie.
Not your problem anymore.
Zedian's brain clip.
I asked before whether you would pay $90 for a cuddle
and without hesitation you said yes. Well. I thought you would pay $90 for a cuddle and without hesitation you said yes.
Well.
I thought you would maybe think about it a bit.
Technically when you date someone you kind of pay for it.
What do you mean?
Like if you have to buy them dinner or.
If you have to buy them dinner.
That is such a romantic.
No wonder your relationship didn't work out.
Okay.
There is a lady.
Whoa.
There is a lady in the Gold Coast Called Jessica O'Neill
Who is making $90,000 a year
Selling cuddles
Just cuddles
Is that it?
That's it
What type?
Fully clothed
Are we talking like spooning?
Lie down cuddles
Are we talking lie down?
I think you can choose actually
Different types
Well there are actually three different tiers of cuddle available.
I've heard about this being a profession in the last couple of years.
Yeah, and the idea is that it's therapy.
So she is a former massage therapist and counsellor
and she's now offering therapy via cuddle.
They say it provides like that human connection that you need.
Yeah, and there's some science behind it that
there's a huge dopamine release and there's something in your brain that fires off when
you have a cuddle. No really but she's monetized it. So there are three levels. This is the entry
level cuddle which will cost you $90 and this is her talking about it. What do I get? The first session that you can do
is a one hour long session and we call it Straight Up Hugs.
This is for people who would just like to try the therapy.
Maybe they're interested in what the benefits may be or maybe you just want to be helped.
$90, one-hour long cuddle.
That's an expensive hour.
Yeah, but...
Oh, what, you think it's worth it?
There's another tier.
I've seen a picture of this woman.
She's attractive.
So this is where it gets interesting.
She's like a good-looking woman.
She's hot is the word you're looking for.
Real hot.
35-year-old mother of three, married, so unavailable, but she's hot.
But you can get a cuddle off this woman.
For just $90.
Or for $120, you can get a cuddle and counseling this is the 120 package
the next level of cuddle therapy that i offer is cuddles and counseling and this is where people
want to work on a particular subject so we have a little bit of a chat and then we cuddle and
while we're cuddling we work through more of the topic
that the client wants to work through.
Which is weird.
So for the $90 hour-long one that doesn't include any counselling,
do you have to stay quiet?
I don't know.
Like do you have to be silent for the hour?
You're having a cuddle and you're like, I've had a real bad day at work.
She goes, I'll stop you there.
If you want to talk about that, it's an extra $30.
It costs more.
And like do you get to watch Netflix when you're cuddling,
like a normal relationship?
Or do you get to pick what you're doing?
The creme de la creme package is the $165 one.
The VIP gold package.
This is the VIP gold package.
What do you get?
I also provide cuddles and coffee.
And this is more of a friendship-based session
where I don't counsel you through anything.
It's more of a sounding board for you.
I don't try to fix anything.
We just chat as friends.
And then I hold you and cuddle you through all of the things
that you're going through in just a friendship kind of way.
How much is the Netflix and chill package?
That's what everyone is thinking right now.
90 grand a year she's making out of this.
She is raking it in.
A big part of it will be because she's super hot too.
Can I just ask you, like listening to that,
like let's just be real, real chat right now.
I would be so uncomfortable yeah like if i
don't know someone i don't want you to touch me yeah in that way yeah like i know it's only a
cuddle but not for me uh the majority of her customers are men over the age of 35 oh that's
shocking zedine's brie and clint it's my birthday it's my birthday brie and clint's birthday banger Alright, here's a chance to play some different music on ZM.

And he cheated on her.
Yeah, and then she had a breakdown over that. She stayed with him after he broke his neck
and she nursed him back to health
and then he cheated on her, which is nice.
Where is she now?

Or if the baby is a DJ
Either way
I think it's probably it's name
Yeah
So good work Jordan Sparks
Zee's Brain's Bree and Clint.
Yesterday on the show, we made a very, very sexy discovery.
Rockstar.
We found out, as a whanau, that Bree has been hiding
a very attractive member of her family from us.
I haven't been hiding him.
I've actually been trying to pimp him out my whole life.
Why haven't you been putting him on your Instagram then?
You know what would blow up your Instagram?
More pictures of your brother.
You know why?
Because the girls here at ZM have
been so thirsty every time I put him
on. I can't do it anymore.
Not just ZM now. The whole country.
Yesterday, Brie's hot
brother Aiden was put on our Instagram
page. He's still there if you want to see it too.
Brie and Clint. And he has gone
viral.
People are calling him the New Zealand thirst trap.
We're about to get him on.
You're about to hear from him for the very first time.
But if you're one of these ladies who has seen the picture
and was as enthused as even my wife was after seeing this man.
Yeah, she needs to cool her jet.
She's married.
She is married to me.
0800 dial ZM.
We can connect you with Aidan this afternoon.
You get one question, okay?
0800 dial ZM.
All right.
Let's bring him on though.
Hello, is that the man, the myth, the legend, Aidan Thomasel?
Hello, brother.
Hey, guys.
Hey, guys.
What's the last 24 hours been like for you, Aidan?
To be honest, every single person in the office has been non-stop ripping off me.
You live in Brisbane.
Has it gone all the way over there into your work?
Oh, well, you see, I made the mistake of commenting on the photo
and then that instantly just released it to everybody I know,
which is a huge mistake.
My boss, my big boss literally sits right across from me in his office and I see his
head pop up and then he just starts laughing at me and just sits down again. And that's
kind of how it's been going.
You are a single man though, right? We're not treading on anyone's toes here.
Yeah, no, absolutely.
So Aidan, there's no such thing as bad publicity, mate.
You have a whole country of women vying for your attention now.
I just want to say there's a heavy filter on that Instagram photo.
Like, heavy filter.
It can't be.
I mean, you know, it's Valencia, I think, was the filter.
How are you feeling this afternoon about meeting some of the Kiwi women
who have taken such a shining to you?
I didn't realise that was happening, to be honest.
Well, they've started calling through now,
and you can continue to call on 0800-DALZIT-M.
We just want to make a connection and see if there's any sparks there,
you know, see if there's anything going on.
They can find out a little bit more about you, Aidan.
They get one question.
Let's go to Tony first.
Hello, Tony.
Hello, how's it going?
Very well.
Tony, you're on with Hot Aidan.
Hey, Hot Aidan.
Hey, Tony.
Oh, my God.
What's your question for my brother?
I don't need to have a question for you.
I just want to say that you're blimmin' gorgeous.
And why are you single?
Why are you single, Aidan?
I don't know.
Too many computer games.
I've just been for a while now.
I'm a really bad good woman, to be honest.
Lifting too much tin.
He's so shy.
Usually you're not this shy, Aidan.
We'll put Tony on hold. Thank you, Tony.
And we won't subject you to any more of that
because I can tell you're really out of your element here, aren't you, Aidan?
Yeah, no, I'm struggling hard right now.
If the women of New Zealand are listening right now, Aidan,
what are the main things you look for in a woman?
Just someone I can be comfortable with, to be honest. I think it's probably a big one.
Who's your celebrity crush?
I've got a thing for the Doctor Who girl.
The one from Broadchurch?
Yeah, no, she is.
What's the cook that you have a thing for?
Is it Nigella Lawson?
Yeah.
Oh, me too.
No, no, no.
All right.
And Beyonce, he's told me before.
We'll leave it there.
Last thing we need to ask, any chance of you turning your Instagram public?
There's nothing to say on there anyway.
Maybe you should start posting
because the people,
give the people what they want.
Okay.
All right, thanks.
Look, if you would like to see our reluctant bachelor,
you can go and check him out
on the Bree and Clint Instagram right now.
Maybe we should do a prize,
win a date with my brother.
He's your brother.
If you want to put him up for a prize, then absolutely.
I just want him to find a good wife and have kids
so my dad gets off my back about me having babies.
Zee names Bree and Clint.
Something about me, Clint, I used to live in America for a couple of years
back when I was in my early 20s.
In Florida, right?
In Florida.
Go Gators!
Go Gators.
And I was talking to one of my mates who I lived on college with
and we were just having a chat, catching up,
and she mentioned something to me that blows my mind.
Absolutely blows my mind.
It's futuristic and I can't get my head around it.
Sure.
She is in the process of cloning her pet.
What?
Her dog recently passed away.
She's cloning her dead pet?
And she's cloning her dead dog.
Oh, I don't know how I feel about this.
So I was literally straight away.
I was like, they can do that?
Like what?
What's happening?
Like since when?
Yeah.
So I've done my research and I said, you know, what company is it?
Like how much does it cost?
Anyway, she said to do the research and look into it,
but it is mind blowing.
Yeah.
So there's this company in the States that they've only been cloning pets,
dogs and cats since 2016.
Right.
That's when the first dog was cloned in America,
but in South Korea, they've done it
since 2015, I believe. This is so weird. I've grabbed some audio from the website. It's called
ViaGen, and it pretty much explains what they do there. Today, the Andersons decided to clone Buddy.
We'll take one of Buddy's cells and replace the nucleus of a female dog's egg. The egg and cell join together and the embryo starts to grow.
Soon the embryo is transferred to a surrogate mother
who, after a typical gestation, will give birth to Buddy 2, Buddy's clone.
None of Buddy's genes were changed,
so Buddy 2 is really like Buddy's identical twin brother,
just born at a later time.
My mind is... I can't.
I get it because the pain of losing an animal is so severe.
For a lot of people, it's like they'd never get over it.
And the idea that you could have them back, sure, I get that.
But it's not really the pet.
No.
Like the pet is half its genes and then half its experiences.
Like its personality is made up by the way that it was brought up.
And the thing you have to remember, because I've done the research on it,
is that the dog or the cat will look exactly the same.
They'll look like twins.
But they'll be different animals.
But they don't have the same personality as the pet you would have lost.
So apparently often it includes like
you know it'll have the same kind of intelligence and temperament but it doesn't mean it's the same
dog it doesn't have the same personality so i've i went onto the website and i thought i'd look into
some of the questions that people might want to know yeah so how much does it cost is probably
the biggest thing that people would want to know.
I'm sure it's pretty expensive.
So to get your pet genetically preserved,
which is where they take the cells and they put them on ice.
Before it dies.
Before it dies or you can do it after it dies as well.
So this is something you can do, yeah, before or after.
Yeah.
So to have that.
Chop a leg off and chuck it in the freezer.
Pretty much.
No, they say to not put it in the freezer, put it in the fridge.
Oh, okay.
The cells are better kept.
Anyway, so to just have that done,
even if you don't go through with the cloning process,
but you have it there in case, it costs $2,400.
To have a pet cloned, I've looked into how much it costs for a dog
and how much it costs for a cat.
Yeah.
For a cat, it costs $37,000.
Holy shit!
For one cat?
For one cat.
For one cat?
Yes.
You can get a stray for free?
That's an expensive cat.
Wait.
Hold on to your undies here because a dog costs $75,000.
God.
To have
a clone made of your pet.
This stuff will get cheaper. It always gets cheaper
as time goes on. I've only been
doing it since 2016. You said it's going to get
cheaper. I don't know.
I don't know how to feel because I feel like a
part of life is losing something
or someone or a pet that
you love and the grieving process
and then... Yeah, it changes the whole scenario because then you go,
oh, when it dies, I'll just get them reborn.
Exactly right.
Like it's Fortnite or something.
Yeah, like it's not something, you know,
it's a part of the family that you can't just bring back
and it's going to be the same.
Yeah.
But I wanted to know from our listeners this afternoon,
on 0800DIALZ ZM would you do it?
Yeah. And I'm sure there might be
someone listening right now that has done it.
I'd love to hear from those people. Do you want to take money out of the equation?
So say you can afford it.
Say it's not expensive. Exactly right.
Would you? Just on a moralistic
plane. Is there a pet in your
life that you've had? Would you get it cloned?
Would you get it cloned? If the pet passed
away is this something that's an option for you?
Really interested to hear from people who would do it.
Really interested to hear from people who are really against it as well.
Yeah, same.
Because it's one of those real moral things where it's like, wait a minute, it's kind
of messing with the circle of life.
Yeah.
Go on then, 0800DARLZM.
You can text us on 9696 as well.
ZDM's brilliant club.
We're just talking about this friend of mine who lives in America.
She's an American and
she dropped into this conversation the
other night that I was having with her that she's getting
her dog cloned. How did you
guys go to the same university? She's
cloning animals and you're just doing radio.
I mean, you know.
She's making good money because
it costs a ton of money
and it was something, to be honest, I
didn't even know was a thing.
I didn't realize it.
I knew it was coming.
I didn't know they could do it now.
And you were telling me about how Barbra Streisand has had a dog.
Yeah, so Barbra Streisand has had one of her dogs cloned,
and we've grabbed a clip about someone talking about it.
Barbra Streisand had her dog Samantha cloned.
She revealed she had mouth and stomach cells from Samantha
preserved after she passed away in 2017.
Streisand brought two dogs to life with Samantha's cells,
Miss Violet and Miss Scarlet.
Even though they are identical,
Streisand told Variety that they have different personalities.
So she got two dogs out of the old one.
Yeah.
So essentially, it's crazy,
and that's something you need to remember
is that it's not going to be the same dog or cat no it's going to have a different personality it's going to look genetically
and physically the same there are so many issues it costs a lot of money so we're just talking
about how much it costs it's 75 000 for a dog and 37 000 for a cat go you'll be gutted if it
got hurt by a car it's just yeah i don't know how to feel about it, to be honest. One down payment and then, uh-oh.
We want to know how you feel about it.
Would you do it?
Tennessee, hi.
Hi.
Oh, hi, guys.
I would think that, like, you know,
death is a natural part of life, like you said, Brie.
But also, like, there's so many other, like,
animals out there that need homes.
I totally agree.
Why would you want it when you're just like,
and like you said, Clint, you can get a strife for free.
This is exactly what I was thinking.
I'm glad someone else has said it.
You're reducing the amount of animals you will care for in your lifetime
down to one and then just replicating it.
When once your animal passes away,
you're in a great position to go and offer a home to another one.
I'm such a big advocate, Tennessee, for people adopting animals
and there's so many that need homes and it's kind of like
if you're paying all of this money, you could give another animal
that really needs a home.
At the same time though, if you found the perfect dog
the first time around, why risk it, right?
Holly.
That's not the attitude.
Hey, Holly.
Hi, Holly. Hey.
What do you think? Would you get a pet cloned?
No, I'm fully with Clint.
I've rescued four animals
and I'd feel so guilty if I spent
my life just keeping the same one over and over
again and not helping the others.
You really do. Like, I
have two cats and the idea that
something would happen to them is
like real scary.
But this is a horrible thing to say too. You do get over
it and also
you do get another pet and you will
love that pet the same way
that you did the first time. Or in a different way.
But it's a different experience, right?
Yeah, and you feel good as well because you've
helped the animal and changed its life.
My family, we have always adopted animals,
and that's something that my parents have passed down to us,
that it's super important that you give an animal a home
that doesn't have one.
And I think about my dog, this dog that we had,
and when she passed away, if we would have had her cloned.
And I just don't think you could do it.
Does anyone want to do it?
Julie, would you clone your pets?
Absolutely not.
Why not?
Well, I've got pigs, goats, chickens, ponies, dogs, cats.
I rescue all of them.
And I love them for their personality.
So as much as I'd love to bring them back,
why bring them back if they're not going to have that personality?
That's totally true.
There's Noah's Ark at your house, isn't it, Julie?
It's a farmyard, yeah.
How much are you spending on pet food?
I don't want to go, do you?
Julie, your place sounds like a dream to me.
Can I come over?
Absolutely.
I'd love to come over.
All right.
Thank you, Julie.
One more.
Another Holly.
Hey, Holly.
Hi, Holly.
Hey, how's it going?
Good.
What do you think?
I'm a bit of a black sheep and I would totally do it.
Okay, bear with me.
No, give it to us.
Yep.
So I wouldn't clone it for my dog after death.
I would want both of them alive at the same time.
Oh, and make them fight.
Not like that, just like compete.
No.
My reason is because I have shared custody of my dog with my ex.
So I have him for one week and my ex has him for another week.
And then we could just have one each.
Oh, wow.
And then you don't have to see your ex anymore.
That'd be great, wouldn't it?
You've brought a whole other area into play with this one.
I know, right?
At the same time, though, why can't you just get,
oh, no, because then you'll miss that one. Yeah, I know what you're saying. No, because I love him and he loves with this one. I know, right? At the same time, though, why can't you just get on?
Because then you'll miss that one.
Yeah, I know what you're saying.
No, because I love him and he loves him as well.
So we both want him, so we share him.
Or.
No, I'm not going to say that. No, go on.
You've started now.
You started.
Come on, I said some dumb shit before.
No, I was just going to say,
or you could just tell your ex, unfortunately, he passed away.
Oh, see.
I couldn't do that.
They just never put the dog on Instagram ever again,
and then the two of you, whenever he comes around,
you go and hide in the lawn, you're like, shh.
He's not coming around their exes for a reason.
He might come around for the dog's fake funeral.
You don't know.
Holly, if you want me to make the call, just let me know.
No, it's okay.
Honestly, he's going to catch me out for life.
He's probably listening right now.
Hello to Holly's ex.
ZDM's Bree and Clint.
Oh, my God.
I heard she bought all her followers.
She would.
She's such a bitch.
It's time for Bree and Clint's Insta-fame game.
Great game, this.
It's where we try and guess the following of very popular celebrities.
Ali gives it to us.
We can't check Instagram.
We have to go to the top of our heads and we have 10 seconds to guess.
Yeah, I love this game.
Well, you don't love it because you're not very good at it.
No, it's my favourite.
We've been playing for eight weeks.
No, let's not go over the score.
It doesn't matter. Well, no, no, because you're on the comeback. You're on No, let's not go over the score. It doesn't matter.
Well, no, no, because you're on the comeback.
You're on the comeback.
I'm not on the comeback.
I'm on two.
Six games to two.
Today's the day, bro.
You're going to get it back.
If I win today, it's a comeback.
Yeah, it is.
Comeback's got to start somewhere, right?
Don't call it a comeback because I never started.
Ellie gives it to us.
You can play along in the car too.
See if you can figure out.
Closest to the amount takes the point.
First to three.
Ellie, when you're ready, give us our first celebrity.
All right, first celebrity for the Instafame game today,
Chappelle Corby.
Ooh, ultra relevant.
Ultra relevant.
The next bachelorette.
The next bachelorette.
She came out with a hiss and a roar at the start
when she first got out of prison.
And I feel like maybe it's died off a bit.
Yeah.
All right.
So, Clint, for Chappelle Corby.
Nah, she was on that much when she got out.
Brie.
All right.
Chappelle Corby.
Clint, you've said $230,000?
Yeah.
Brie has said $140,000.
Chappelle Corby has $182,000.
So, who gets the point?
So, that is Brie.
That's me.
Are we sure?
I'll do some maths.
Hang on.
I'm really good at maths.
183.
Hang on.
I've just got my calculator.
183.
So you're 43 away from it.
And I'm only...
Oh, no.
Yeah, you're way far.
Yeah, I thought so.
Yeah, nice.
All right, point to Brie.
You knew the whole time.
I knew the whole time.
It was suspense.
Testing you two.
Yeah, it was absolutely fine. One for me. Okay, next nice. All right, point to Brie. You knew the whole time. I knew the whole time. It was suspense. Testing you two. Yeah, it was absolutely fine.
One for me.
Okay, next celebrity.
All right, next celebrity.
Sophie Turner.
Game of Thrones.
Oh, I don't even know who that is.
Do you?
I don't watch Game of Thrones.
Neither do I, actually, but I know who she is because she dates Joe Jonas.
Ellie, if you don't know who it is, don't put it in there.
Everyone knows people from Game of Thrones.
You don't. Well, yeah, but I people from Game of Thrones. You don't.
Well, yeah, but I know what she looks like.
I don't.
Brie doesn't.
I'll just go off the fact that she's on Game of Thrones.
Yeah, good call.
And she's dating who?
Joe Jonas.
Joe Jonas.
Yeah.
All right.
So for Sophie Turner-Clint.
Oh, I've gone way too low.
Way too low.
You've put $2 million?
Yeah.
Brie, you've put $84,000.
Sophie Turner has $7.8 million.
She is a Game of Thrones cast member.
To be honest, I've never been on board that Game of Thrones.
Do you know why?
Why?
The first time I ever watched it, my parents go,
oh, come on, come and watch this Game of Thrones.
It's amazing.
It's me, my mum, my dad and my brother.
We sat down.
The first scene was this incest scene.
The brother and sister one.
That's all I've seen.
Me too.
And I was like, I looked Me too! And I was like,
I looked at my mum
and I was like,
what kind of weird
crap are you guys into?
You know,
it made me feel weird actually.
I haven't watched it since.
Yeah, not for me.
Okay, one point each.
Alright.
Okay, one a piece.
Next one.
Matt LeBlanc.
Matt LeBlanc.
Matt LeBlanc.
Oh, Joey.
Joey Tribbiani.
Joey Tribbiani.
Tough.
He's on the new Top Gear.
Oh, he was anyway.
Is he still on it?
I don't know.
I don't know, actually.
All right, Clint.
It's not Joe Jonas.
For Joey slash Matt LeBlanc, you've put $1.1 million.
$1.1 million.
Brie, you've put $2 million.
Can you keep the answers hidden, please?
I can't see it. You've put $2 million. 1.1 million. Brie, you've put 2 million. Can you keep the answers hidden, please?
You've put 2 million?
Yep.
Matt LeBlanc has 1.1 million, Clint.
You got it bang on.
He saw it.
I didn't see it.
Cheater.
I didn't.
It was 2-1, so just chill out.
Cool, I can win the game here.
Ellie, when you're ready, give us our possibly final celebrity.
Can you please keep the answers hidden? You can't see them, Brie. I can't the game here. Ellie, when you're ready, give us our possibly final celebrity. Can you please keep the answers hidden?
You can't see them, Bree.
I can't see anything, mate.
Shut up, you just suck.
Fair call.
You just suck.
That's fair.
All right.
Next celebrity.
I'll tell you the real truth.
We're going to go with just a big one here.
Beyonce.
Just give us a guess.
Beyonce who?
Beyonce Knowles.
Who are the, what are the Beyonce?
I just wanted to check, just in case it was a trick question.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
No, the big Beyonce.
The Beyonce.
The big B.
The big B.
The big B.
And she's known to her friends.
All right.
For Beyonce, Clint, you put $87 million.
Brie, you put $54 million.
Yeah.
Beyonce has $117 million.
Clint takes the point and the game.
This is just getting predictable.
I'd like to thank my family, my data provider,
the Apple phone company of California.
Everybody who's contributed to this phenomenal run
where I have now stretched out to a seven game to two lead.
I feel like the Wallabies in the Bledisloe.
You are like the Wallabies.
Hey, mate.
There's a comeback coming.
When?
How many years?
I don't know.
ZM's Bree and Clint.
ZM, Bree and Clint.
How good's that song?
It's Broods and Peach.
That's where it goes.
And it feels like home.
You sound exactly like Georgia.
Thank you.
That's an insult to Georgia.
I told you before, there is a space warning that the Earth could be about to end.
There's an asteroid.
It was on a path close to Earth.
Is Bruce Willis coming?
No, he's not needed.
Is Ben Affleck coming?
NASA have released a statement to say that the meteor, sorry, not asteroid, that was
coming close to Earth will bypass Earth at a speed of 32,400 kilometres an hour.
Yeah, that's pretty quick.
Hoo-wee!
Imagine that crashing into their backyard.
So wait, they thought it was going to hit Earth.
Yeah, it's in our general vicinity.
Our orbit.
Yeah.
Well, no, it's actually quite a long way out of our orbit.
So are we going to be able to see it?
Unsure, actually.
It's going to pass by Earth on Wednesday.
Are you one of those people, you know,
when they say there's a lunar eclipse or there's a red moon
or all that other weird stuff that people get up and have a look at?
Are you one of those people that does that?
Only if I'm going to be up anyway.
Yeah, see, I'm not that person.
They're like,
this won't be visible again for another 110
years. And you go, I'll catch the next
one. Get it on the next round.
This meteor was
the size of the Great Pyramid
in Egypt. 150
metres across. Right. Big old
asteroid meteor thing.
We're okay though.
So that movie Armageddon is something that can actually happen.
No.
What do you mean no?
Where they land on it and blow it up with a nuke.
Yeah.
No.
And Bruce Willis gives up his life.
No, that's not possible.
No.
But it is possible that one could hit the earth.
This is what I've wondered.
If there was one that was on track to hit us,
do you think NASA would actually tell us?
Because if it was coming and there was nothing we could do about it,
wouldn't you just keep quiet about it?
I'd rather be oblivious.
Right.
I mean, what's the point in worrying everyone?
If there's nothing you can do about it.
You know?
You just go, oh.
And then everyone just panics for the next however many days.
Well, they'll either panic or they will do the thing
that they've always wanted to do.
Can you imagine if they told the earth that this was going to happen
and they're like, oh, in two days this is going to happen.
The world goes to shit because everyone goes crazy, right?
Yeah.
And then they make a mistake and it doesn't happen.
Oh, no.
And in the meantime, you've gone and done it with your neighbour's wife.
Exactly.
And done a poo on your boss's desk.
And then they go, oh, no, we got it wrong.
Our bad.
Back to normal.
Our bad.
What would you do?
I really grapple with this one because I don't think I want to do anything particularly evil.
Like, I think I would just do everything naked.
Yeah.
Like, I would go everywhere naked.
I'd be running down Queen Street naked.
I'd be coming in here doing the radio show naked.
And people would just go, is that Clint?
Is he completely naked?
Because it wouldn't matter.
Really?
That's what you would do?
Yeah, well, what would you do?
Get your wang out.
Yeah.
That's the one big plan. Well, well, what would you do? Get your wang out. Yeah. That's the one big plan.
Well, it's the start, okay?
You have.
Anything else I would do, that would be part of it.
Is to show people your wang up.
Yeah.
Well, I'm not showing you unless the world's ending.
What would you do?
Probably eat a bag of cheese and find someone to have sex with.
You do that anyway.
Yeah, good point.
Sometimes I don't find anyone though.
And then the next day it feels like the world's ending.
I'll wait $100 at M this afternoon.
If you had the chance, if the world was ending
and you knew it was ending
and you knew it was going to be done in 24, 48 hours.
What does it look like?
What's your big plan?
Yeah, what's your activity that you've been waiting to do?
What's your exit strategy?
I've always wanted to have a jelly wrestle with someone.
And eat a bag of cheese.
And eat a bag of cheese.
0800 dial ZM or 9696.
Let's see who's got the best one.
Let's see who's thought about this.
And then we can take their ideas because our ideas suck.
We can take them. because our ideas suck.
Interesting how both of ours included nudity though. Zeddy is brilliant.
What's that movie where the world's
ending? With Tom Cruise?
There's so many that they've made
about the world ending. War of the Worlds.
I don't want it to be like that.
We talked about this asteroid before that's coming.
What was the other one? 2012?
2012 was one yeah yeah
yeah that was one Armageddon Independence Day oh there's so many Independence Day too
independent yeah yeah yeah well it's not happening the asteroid is going to miss earth so we're safe
for now but if you got that message if you got a news update say you turn it on and Mike McRoberts is there and he's looking
ripped and hot and he goes
we've got 48 hours left to live
what are you going to do? Can I change
my answer? Yeah, you're welcome to.
I'd eat a bag of cheese and then I'd try and
find Jeremy Wells.
He literally works
across the hall from us. So it's an easy find
then. You could do that tomorrow.
I mean he's got a partner and everything.
Yeah, but if the world was ending,
it wouldn't matter.
Yeah, yeah.
Frank, say there's no consequences,
there is no tomorrow,
what are you going to do?
I would go rob a bank to get rich
and then enjoy the rich life for 48 hours.
Yeah, but Frank, Frank,
you could get shot while you were doing that.
Also, you could just go and break into someone's house
and live in their house.
Don't rain on Frank's parade.
True, mine was just get naked and run around, so fair enough.
Frank, I like your idea.
Go with it.
Thank you, Frank.
Kermit, hi.
Hi, Kermit.
Kermit.
No?
Let's put it on hold.
What's going on?
The producers are saying do not talk to Kermit.
Producers are saying no,
but we're technically saying it's the end of the world,
so I think we should go to Kermit.
No, they're positive we shouldn't talk to him.
That's okay.
What would you guys do, producers?
Say this is it.
There's no tomorrow.
What's your plan?
I don't know.
I kind of want to steal something.
I've never stolen anything.
You've never stolen anything? Why? Why would you want to steal something, producer Ben? Just for the rush of it. A bit never stolen anything. You've never stolen anything.
Why?
Why would you want to steal something, producer Ben?
Just for the rush of it.
A bit of a thrill.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Grab and run.
Because they're not going to miss it.
Like, they're not going to miss it.
I've stolen a couch before.
Where from?
This side of the road.
But it was on a trailer.
Wait, this is something we need to address.
Hang on, what?
You've stolen a couch.
We put it back 48 hours later.
We thought it was curbside pickup.
We might have been intoxicated.
We carried it for three kilometres.
Finally.
Who are you?
Who are you?
Great point.
I just realised as I was talking in my brain,
my brain's going, shut the hell up.
Shut up.
You need to get a little bit of a filter in there.
Matt, you got the last one.
World's ending, what are you doing?
Honestly, that woman is such a concern, by the way.
That's what my brain says sometimes.
What did she want us to say?
She goes, I'll stall the couch one time.
Sorry, guys.
No, me neither.
You're in a safe place, don't worry.
You're among friends.
Well, she's not in a safe place.
She's live on the radio.
I'm sure the legal team will chat to me after this.
Yeah, just a usual afternoon chat.
You've got 48 hours, Matt.
World's over after that.
What are you doing?
So there's a couple of things.
One, I've really always wanted to drive a Lamborghini,
so somehow I'd get my hands on a Lamborghini.
And two, there's been a couple of things I've been asking for on the bedroom
that my wife specifically said when hell freezes over,
so I'm assuming those are on the cards.
Yes, man!
Lock it in!
Zee, he's brilliant, Clint.
I'd say our show, Clinton,
is one of the leading shows for breaking McDonald's news.
We've had a bit.
Yeah, we've done a bit.
What have we covered off?
There was the all day menu
Yes
That we got an official statement from McDonald's
All day all day
Not just breakfast
Yeah so Big Macs at breakfast time
Yeah
They said not at the moment
Sweet potato chips
Yes
Kumara fries at McDonald's
Which would be amazing
They said we used to do them
Because they're available in the Netherlands at the moment
McDonald's New Zealand said we used to do sweet potato wedges.
We did them first.
Yeah, I remember them.
They can't have been popular if they took them off the menu.
Otherwise, they'd keep doing them.
This, I think, is my favourite one
and the one that I've been most excited about.
Currently, there is a McDonald's in the world
that is serving a 48-piece nugget bucket box.
Oh, my God.
Like, how good are nuggets?
Now, I think the idea of this is much like,
the idea is not that you go home and smash 48 nuggets.
It's if you want to use nuggets for catering.
Is it?
Well, yeah, yeah.
If you're having a party, you could put out nuggets. You could put out buckets
of them. Right, but I don't want to feel bad if I
just want to buy the bucket of nuggets. Oh, you're welcome
to eat 48, but I don't think you could.
I don't think... I'd give it a good
crack. Yeah, you'd give it a good nudge.
I'd give it a good nug.
Well done.
Where is this available
currently? So apparently they're available
in Japan at the moment
I mean Japan, they do all the cool stuff
They do do all the cool stuff
We always like to know if we are going to get it here in New Zealand
So I have my McDonald's connection
Yeah, her name's Patty
Her name is Patty and we've made multiple jokes about the fact that
My McDonald's insider's name is Patty
And we won't make any today
I really want to know though if we are going to get the 48-piece nugget box.
So this is the official word from McDonald's New Zealand.
McNuggets are super popular in New Zealand.
Hell yeah, they are.
Kiwis are big fans.
We're aware of the McNugget buckets,
and we have noted your enthusiasm.
Dot, dot, dot.
That sounds like to me.
That sounds like to me
that we may have coroned on to something
that is coming soon
and they're not ready to announce it yet.
Are we breaking nugget news here?
I think possibly we have a scoop.
But I don't know.
