Starting point is 00:00:00 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?
Starting point is 00:00:14 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
Starting point is 00:00:25 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
Starting point is 00:00:32 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.
Starting point is 00:00:45 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.
Starting point is 00:01:05 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?
Starting point is 00:01:20 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.
Starting point is 00:01:33 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.
Starting point is 00:01:52 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.
Starting point is 00:02:03 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.
Starting point is 00:02:19 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.
Starting point is 00:02:34 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.
Starting point is 00:03:09 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
Starting point is 00:03:53 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.
Starting point is 00:04:14 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.
Starting point is 00:04:33 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.
Starting point is 00:04:53 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
Starting point is 00:05:12 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.
Starting point is 00:05:27 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?
Starting point is 00:05:42 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
Starting point is 00:06:00 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.
Starting point is 00:06:17 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.
Starting point is 00:06:42 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
Starting point is 00:06:59 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
Starting point is 00:07:13 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.
Starting point is 00:07:30 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.
Starting point is 00:07:43 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
Starting point is 00:07:53 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?
Starting point is 00:08:11 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?
Starting point is 00:08:28 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
Starting point is 00:08:49 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.
Starting point is 00:09:05 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?
Starting point is 00:09:23 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.
Starting point is 00:09:39 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
Starting point is 00:09:56 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.
Starting point is 00:10:11 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.
Starting point is 00:10:34 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.
Starting point is 00:10:56 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.
Starting point is 00:11:10 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.
Starting point is 00:11:22 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?
Starting point is 00:11:34 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.
Starting point is 00:11:49 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
Starting point is 00:12:19 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.
Starting point is 00:12:45 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.
Starting point is 00:13:00 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,
Starting point is 00:13:33 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,
Starting point is 00:13:46 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
Starting point is 00:14:04 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.
Starting point is 00:14:30 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

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?
Starting point is 00:18:21 I've just looked at her Instagram. She's happy. She's happy. Was she an American Idol contestant? She was I think I think so She's just celebrated her first wedding anniversary Oh okay

Starting point is 00:18:40 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.
Starting point is 00:18:57 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
Starting point is 00:19:12 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.
Starting point is 00:19:32 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.
Starting point is 00:19:48 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.
Starting point is 00:20:01 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.
Starting point is 00:20:26 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.
Starting point is 00:20:53 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.
Starting point is 00:21:17 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.
Starting point is 00:21:34 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?
Starting point is 00:21:50 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.
Starting point is 00:22:06 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?
Starting point is 00:22:38 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.
Starting point is 00:22:55 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.
Starting point is 00:23:15 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.
Starting point is 00:23:27 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.
Starting point is 00:23:41 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.
Starting point is 00:23:58 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?
Starting point is 00:24:18 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.
Starting point is 00:24:33 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.
Starting point is 00:24:59 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.
Starting point is 00:25:31 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.
Starting point is 00:25:54 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.
Starting point is 00:26:26 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.
Starting point is 00:26:42 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.
Starting point is 00:26:59 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?
Starting point is 00:27:13 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.
Starting point is 00:27:27 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
Starting point is 00:27:44 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.
Starting point is 00:27:59 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
Starting point is 00:28:17 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
Starting point is 00:28:35 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
Starting point is 00:28:48 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
Starting point is 00:29:04 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.
Starting point is 00:29:19 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.
Starting point is 00:29:39 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?
Starting point is 00:30:09 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.
Starting point is 00:30:25 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.
Starting point is 00:30:46 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.
Starting point is 00:31:03 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.
Starting point is 00:31:18 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
Starting point is 00:31:36 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.
Starting point is 00:31:53 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.
Starting point is 00:32:13 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?
Starting point is 00:32:30 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.
Starting point is 00:32:40 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.
Starting point is 00:32:51 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.
Starting point is 00:33:08 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,
Starting point is 00:33:24 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.
Starting point is 00:33:37 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,
Starting point is 00:33:54 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.
Starting point is 00:34:11 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.
Starting point is 00:34:26 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.
Starting point is 00:34:43 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.
Starting point is 00:34:51 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.
Starting point is 00:35:04 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.
Starting point is 00:35:17 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.
Starting point is 00:35:32 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?
Starting point is 00:35:44 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.
Starting point is 00:35:51 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.
Starting point is 00:36:01 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.
Starting point is 00:36:08 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.
Starting point is 00:36:22 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?
Starting point is 00:36:31 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?
Starting point is 00:36:38 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,
Starting point is 00:36:52 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.
Starting point is 00:37:04 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.
Starting point is 00:37:11 Yeah, not for me. Okay, one point each. Alright. Okay, one a piece. Next one. Matt LeBlanc. Matt LeBlanc. Matt LeBlanc.
Starting point is 00:37:20 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.
Starting point is 00:37:33 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?
Starting point is 00:37:45 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.
Starting point is 00:37:57 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.
Starting point is 00:38:14 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.
Starting point is 00:38:25 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.
Starting point is 00:38:34 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.
Starting point is 00:38:53 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.
Starting point is 00:39:15 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?
Starting point is 00:39:24 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.
Starting point is 00:39:47 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!
Starting point is 00:40:12 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.
Starting point is 00:40:27 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,
Starting point is 00:40:45 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.
Starting point is 00:41:02 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.
Starting point is 00:41:17 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?
Starting point is 00:41:33 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
Starting point is 00:41:47 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.
Starting point is 00:42:08 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.
Starting point is 00:42:26 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.
Starting point is 00:42:39 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.
Starting point is 00:42:48 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.
Starting point is 00:43:08 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?
Starting point is 00:43:26 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.
Starting point is 00:43:41 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.
Starting point is 00:43:59 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
Starting point is 00:44:29 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.
Starting point is 00:44:45 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.
Starting point is 00:44:59 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.
Starting point is 00:45:14 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.
Starting point is 00:45:23 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.
Starting point is 00:45:36 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.
Starting point is 00:45:48 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.
Starting point is 00:45:58 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.
Starting point is 00:46:16 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.
Starting point is 00:46:29 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.
Starting point is 00:46:45 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.
Starting point is 00:46:58 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!
Starting point is 00:47:12 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
Starting point is 00:47:25 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
Starting point is 00:47:35 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.
Starting point is 00:47:47 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?
Starting point is 00:48:12 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
Starting point is 00:48:30 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
Starting point is 00:48:45 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
Starting point is 00:49:02 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.
