Starting point is 00:00:00 Hi everybody, welcome to the Brie and Clint podcast. Today on the podcast I thought I'd bring, you know, I'd like to bring stuff that I know will pique Brie's interests and I know that she's a keen female beatboxer. So what I have here is the female beatboxing world champion. Would you like to hear that, Brie? Dope. Okay, cool. Bring her up. Now everything you're about to hear has been created by this woman's mouth.
Starting point is 00:00:23 Not Brie. No, not Brie, no. Pardon you. There's a crowd here who have come to this, like a gig. Yeah, it's awesome. Wait, when does she get into it? She's doing it right now.
Starting point is 00:00:46 That's her. No, she's going to drop the beat in a minute. There it is. Did it. Whoa. This is incredible She's slapping her throat while she's doing it Oh It's amazing. Now, listening to that,
Starting point is 00:01:38 if you'd gone out and spent a whole lot of money on a drum kit, I bet you'd feel pretty silly right about now. Yeah. Right? You had it all there. You had everything you needed all along. Did you guys ever get Joel Turner here in New Zealand? No.
Starting point is 00:01:53 For our Aussie listeners, they'll know exactly who I'm talking about. Joel Turner was on, I'm pretty sure, the first season of Australian Idol, and he was a beatboxer. Was he on Idol as a beatboxer? So he went to the auditions, and he beatboxed, and they were like, we don't know what to do with this guy. Like, he was incredible but they were like,
Starting point is 00:02:07 what the hell do we do with him? Anyway, he then turned up and he beatboxed at the finale. Oh, they brought him on as like a special guest. Yes. And then he released a song
Starting point is 00:02:18 that did really well in Australia. Right. Hmm. I can't, what was it called? I can't remember what the song was called.
Starting point is 00:02:25 These Kids. You didn't have that song here? These Kids, nah. I've been a-struggling knowing I had none. And he sang and beatboxed on it. It was amazing.
Starting point is 00:02:34 That's cool. You'd have to BYO microphone to a beatbox competition, wouldn't you? Yeah. No one would, especially at the moment. That's true.
Starting point is 00:02:43 You know the couple of times that I've done stand up comedy Every time I walk out there I'm like There's just food And all kinds of shit In the mic Well the mics
Starting point is 00:02:52 That we use here at work I share one with Fletch You share one with Megan And I feel like I'm very close to Fletch Because of that I've never actually Hooked up with Fletch
Starting point is 00:03:04 But I may as well have. Pretty much have. Our mouths are next to each other every day. All right. Since this is a beatboxing, who's going to have a go? I thought you were doing it. No.
Starting point is 00:03:14 I thought that was you, Freeman. Producer Ben, I want to see what you've got. No, I'm not going to. No, we're going to go around the room. I want to see what Ben's got too. Just a short one. Around the room. I don't want to do that.
Starting point is 00:03:23 Why not? It's not my thing. You can have some time to warm up. Anastasia, the pride of Christchurch. Around the room. I don't want to do that. Why not? It's not my thing. You can have some time to warm up. Anastasia, the pride of Christchurch. Can I just say what he said and get out of it? No. You're new. This doesn't work this way.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Okay, all right. Well, I guess it's over to me. I don't feel like doing it either. Bree, I guess you're up. There you go, Bree. No way. That was boring. That could have been a bit of fun where everyone could have been involved. Yeah, Bree. No way. That was boring. That could have been a bit of fun where everyone could have been involved.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Yeah, Ben. Yeah, that's my fault. I'm sorry, guys. Why are you being such a party pooper? I just don't feel like beatboxing. You know what could happen? You could make up for it by beatboxing right now. Yeah, three, two, one, go.
Starting point is 00:04:01 Drop a beat, Ben. Damn it, I was trying to play that other one off YouTube at the same time. I got Joel Turner ready for you But it doesn't matter It's too late now Oh no go on Play some of that then Oh you wanted me to Is this these kids

Starting point is 00:05:46 Yes. I'm thinking, what if you and I go on the search for New Zealand's best dad bod? Best dad bod? Yep. Okay. And then we reward them with a keg. I like that. I think that's a good prize.
Starting point is 00:06:01 That's a really good idea. I thought you were going to say find New Zealand's hottest dad, but you've gone the other way. Best dad bod. Best dad bod. Okay. All right. How do we make it happen?
Starting point is 00:06:10 We just throw it up on the Instagram, start taking submissions. We'll just check with head of Instagram, producer Anastasia. Can we chuck it up on the Instagrams, producer Anastasia? Yeah. Where's the kid going to come from though?

Starting point is 00:06:34 No dad bits. It has to be waist up. Dad bods. Waist up. No, we'll take the waist down. It can be full body, but you have to have your dad undies on. Bungie smugglers are going to do it for me. Can we actually do that this week?
Starting point is 00:06:44 I love bungie smugglers. I think that's a bit of fun. Give us some time to get it organised. Don't bombard head of Instagram producer Anastasia with your dad bods right now. Just wait. Just wait. There will be a place.
Starting point is 00:06:56 It's going to be a keg. How would we ship a keg somewhere? You just order it from a local brewery. Smart. Yeah, we'll do that. Or if it's one of those tiny little Heineken kegs, just put it in the courier. We'll drone it out.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Today on the show, the 50K Fact of the Day is back. We're going to put out a question for it just before 4 o'clock. Who doesn't need 500 bucks at the moment? I think everyone would like 500 bucks. Yeah, it's part of our $50,000 giveaway. Thanks for saving my bacon. So listen out. Five to four, you'll hear today's part of our $50,000 giveaway. Thanks for saving my bacon. So listen now, five to four, you'll hear today's Fact of the Day question.
Starting point is 00:07:28 Up next though, I want to talk to people who have lived in both town or country town and city. Right. Have you done both? Because there's new stats coming out that says a lot of Kiwis are moving back to the country. It's my dream, get back to the country. Lifestyle block.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Well, I've never lived in the country before, but I feel like it's the vibe for me. We'll talk about it after Justin Bieber and Ari's at M. I'm no one to stick around. Brie and Clint. You're going to pack it all up and just move on out to the country. Hopefully. I just have to convince my wife that that's what we want to do.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Would your wife ever want to? Hell no. Oh, she doesn't like country life? She's a city girl. Yeah, well, she's always been a city girl, hasn't she? Yeah, she's always been a city girl. And I mean, I've always been a city boy, but I can feel that in my bones. I've got a pair of gumboots.
Starting point is 00:08:16 I've got some animals. They need to roam free. That's pretty much all it takes. They need to get out there. It's time. It's time that I felt the mud in between my toes. You really are a city boy. I've done both.
Starting point is 00:08:28 I want to plant some avocado trees. God, I hate people like you. I want to do what Vaughan did and get a couple of designer cattle. Then I just become salt of the earth. See, I've been a real country kid. I've been a real country person. My dad is an apple orchardist. Grew up on the land for 17 years.
Starting point is 00:08:48 I'm not growing apples. Why not? No money in there. Avocados, baby. I'll be farming two things, avocados and zucchinis. Well, that's good because a number of Kiwis are actually moving to enjoy a lifestyle block out in the country in the wake of COVID-19. And apparently it's up by 42.9%. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Meaning, so in July of this year, 849 lifestyle properties were sold compared to last year in July, 594 or so. Yeah, right. That's how popular it is. People want the simple life. They want to live off the land. My co-host of Celebrity Treasure Island, Matt Chisholm, did that. Yep.
Starting point is 00:09:29 When was it? Started this year. He packed up his whole life, his whole family from Auckland and moved out into the country. To a lifestyle block. Yeah. Yeah, right. What's he running? On his lifestyle block, what's he running?
Starting point is 00:09:40 I think he's got sheep. Oh, yeah? How many? I want to say. Yeah. I think he's got a couple of heads. Oh, a couple of heads of sheep? Yeah, good. Oh, sheep. Oh, yeah. How many? I want to say. Yeah. I think he's got a couple of heads. Oh, a couple of heads of sheep. Yeah, good.
Starting point is 00:09:47 Oh, good. Yeah, good. I think he was dipping them the other day, actually. Oh, you've got to dip them. Yeah, why? Because if you don't dip them, they don't develop a natural, healthy fear of water. And then in summer, they'll run into the waterways, and that's how most sheep drown. So dip your sheep, ladies and gentlemen, so they know the water is no-no.
Starting point is 00:10:07 That is so far off. Am I in the ballpark? No. Right. Well, I like I said, I don't have my lifestyle blocks yet. Yeah, you'll learn. I've only lived in the city. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:10:18 What was the question? What should we ask people? You want to talk to people who have lived in the town and in the country. Yeah. City people who have lived in the country and to people who have lived in the town and in the country. City people who have lived in the country and country people who have lived in the city because we want to put them head to head and find out what's better. And the only people who will truly know
Starting point is 00:10:33 are people who have done both. I'll give my opinion on this too next if you're worried. Because I've done both. Yeah, what do you like better and why? What's the reason? I've seen your car. You what do you like better and why? What's the reason? I've seen your car.
Starting point is 00:10:48 You're not going back to the country. Shut up. I can buy a ute. You didn't, though. I could. 0800 dial ZM. Have you lived in the country in the city? What's your favourite?
Starting point is 00:11:00 Or you can text us on 9696. This is new 660. In the meantime, this is raining. Bree and Clint, ZM. Bree and Clint. And come south of the border. That's what us city people, no country, what us country folks say. Speaking of going south of the border. Yeah, yeah. When you move
Starting point is 00:11:16 out to rural lifestyle. The number of Kiwis moving to lifestyle blocks in the wake of COVID-19 is on the rise in the month of July of this year. 42.9% on the rise, to be exact. Gotta say, I don't blame... Don't pretend like you're country.
Starting point is 00:11:34 I can be. I can be. I can be. Can you change a spark plug on a motorbike? Yep. There's no way you can. Yep. Don't you get free servicing with your brand new Audi?
Starting point is 00:11:47 Excuse me? You're definitely not country. You own an Audi station wagon. It's a Ute. It's an Audi Ute. Anyway. The U stands for Ute. We're asking people, have you lived in the city and have you lived in the country?
Starting point is 00:12:00 Have you done both? And which do you prefer? Paul, you're both. You lived in both. G'day, Paul. Afternoon. Afternoon. What are you liking more, Paul? The country or the city? Oh, the country. Can't beat it. Where do you live currently? Perongia. Perongia. What do you do out there, Paul? Well, I'm a stay-at-home dad, so I stay at home with my three girls.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Nice. You're running a kid ranch. Yeah, yeah. And so when you're at school, I look after the acreage that we've got. It's quite small. How many acres do you got? We've got three and a half. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:42 We've got a couple of beasties. Yeah, nice. And grow fruit. There you got a couple of beasties. Yeah, nice. And grapefruit. There you go. All right. Hey, Paul, lovely. I can talk to Paul for a lot longer. We're going to have to motor through this poll if we're going to get through it.
Starting point is 00:12:51 That's one vote for the country. G'day, Chloe. Chloe, hi. Hi. We're definitely for the country. We've done the Gold Coast thing, the 25-acre thing, the 60-acre thing, and now we've got the best of both worlds. We live 10 minutes away in a little suburbia
Starting point is 00:13:05 town from our 500 acres that we have access to. 500 acres! That's not a lifestyle block, Chloe. That is a very decent farm. I think we were talking to Shania Twain just then. Jenny, hi. Hi. Country or city, Jen?
Starting point is 00:13:22 Country. I'm a city girl and I married a farmer. We're living right on the edge of northern Auckland at the moment on 550 hectares. Whoa. What type of farming does your hubby do? He does sheep and beef. Oh, nice. He'd be a busy man. Or as we say, kettle.
Starting point is 00:13:40 He's extremely busy. Busy, busy man. Lamb. All right. Three votes for the country. Michelle, city or country? Country. Most from Auckland to Taranaki.
Starting point is 00:13:50 Oh, I love the Naki. Yeah, right. The Naki's my top. Cuny, Cuny Pigs. Yes. Ben and Shirley. Shout out to everyone in the Naki, by the way. Love those people down there.
Starting point is 00:13:59 And Courtney, town or country? I'm a town. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Courtney, if you're going to start that word, you have to finish it, okay? Courtney. I'm a town. Why did you call yourself that? That's so harsh.
Starting point is 00:14:15 If you start the word country, you have to follow through. And that's why, Courtney. I grew up in the country, and then I met my partner, and then I lived with his family in the town. Yeah. And it was just so convenient and it was just so easy to go to work. It was like a two minute drive down the road and it made things easier. But I will, when I grow older, I will become a country again.
Starting point is 00:14:39 Become a country. Okay. Let's see how nervous she got because she was talking so fast after that. We can tell why she's a city girl. We're all moving. She doesn't slip up like that. Yeah, we're all moving to the country. The country.
Starting point is 00:14:54 Country. The country. Country. Yeah, true boy, mate. Fair dinkum. Truth, Courtney. Truth. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio.
Starting point is 00:15:04 This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean, the first MTV VMAs of the COVID age are going down right now. How are they even happening? What's the deal? Oh, my goodness. You know what? I was really nervous about this. I thought this was going to be a train wreck,
Starting point is 00:15:19 one of those, like, awkward Zoom meetings, you know, where everyone, like, it's super uncomfortable and they're all at home in the kitchen. This was so well done. MTV VMAs, you know, this is the big award show where we acknowledge all of the artists and their videos of the year. Here's what they did. They did it in New York City.
Starting point is 00:15:36 They had no crowd. There was no stand except for one of the stages. So they had a stage right downtown Manhattan. There was a stage on the roof of a building on the top of Hudson River, a thousand feet up as The Weeknd performed. So they had all these stages around the city. And then one of the stages had cars. They had fans had driven up in cars like a drive-in movie.
Starting point is 00:15:58 It was so well thought out. The show opens with The Weeknd on the top of the building, a thousand feet up, a helicopter filming his performance. And at the end of his performance, as he sings Blinding Lights, huge five barges of fireworks go off on the Hudson River. That kicks off the show. It was so fabulous. Lady Gaga performed.
Starting point is 00:16:17 BTS performed their new song, which is in English. They're the Korean pop stars. Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande, of course. What was cool, all of the dancers had masks on. Black Eyed Peas performed. It was just really, really, really cool. So big winners of the night. Video of the year went to The Weeknd for Blinding Lights.
Starting point is 00:16:36 Artist of the year was Lady Gaga. I second that one. Song of the year was Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande's Rain on Me. And the last time it rained in LA, I literally recreated that in my convertible. I promise you, it was just as cool and sexy as their music video. Not surprised that they won. I could have won it myself.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Dean, this is obviously the one. Lady Gaga wore that famous meat dress back in the day. I heard she went as a bottle of hand sanitizer this time. She went all out this time. She actually came in in like a glass round bubble, kind of like you see in the movies. So it wasn't that far off then. She did.
Starting point is 00:17:13 I thought she'd already done that, the egg thing. Remember she did the egg? Oh, that was cool. She came in an egg. She was social distancing before it was a thing. She so switched on. And then she wore that red costume with the full mask face. Yeah, she was doing it way before.
Starting point is 00:17:25 The egg, let me tell you a little secret. Here's the gossip. She wasn't in it. She wasn't? It wasn't her. She actually wasn't in it. So it was someone else in the egg as all the dancers carried her through. And then when the egg got in, she, like, revealed herself.
Starting point is 00:17:40 But it was actually not her in the egg. So the age old question, what came first, Gaga or the egg? We can't even answer it. We can't, though. That's a scoop from our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy, on the MTV VMAs. Thanks to Old El Paso, you can launch into mess-free Mexican with their new tortilla pockets now.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Free in Clint. Do you have any royal music? Oh, I think I do. Sorry, I didn't warn you. How's this? It's very good. I'm always ready. I feel like I do a really good impression of what the Queen would sound like.
Starting point is 00:18:14 Too enthusiastic. She's old and jaded. Very true. Would you talk more like this? Philip flipped a Range Rover. This stupid prick. He hadn't been drinking, but he had a lot of cough syrup. I heard he had about four Xannies.
Starting point is 00:18:36 Anyway, we're very old. He knows how to party, Philip. Anyway, an article about the Queen has come out about what her pretty much day looks like in food. I've heard she's a creature of habit and that she largely, apart from dinner, has the same thing every day. Apparently so. There's a few traditions that she actually has. Breakfast, she usually kicks it off with a very British thing, tea and biscuits.
Starting point is 00:19:07 For breakfast? What a baller. Biscuits for breakfast. Well, she is the queen. Who's going to tell her no? Yeah, right. Okay, cool, yeah. And I mean, when you're her age, just do what you want.
Starting point is 00:19:16 Yeah, that's breakfast done. Followed by a bowl of cereal. Apparently, she does six Weet-Bix. She does not. She's a special K-girl. Says here Fruit Loops or Corn Flakes. She's training for a half Ironman, so she has
Starting point is 00:19:36 Nutri-Grain. She loves a bit of Nutri-Grain and I agree, I love Nutri-Grain. She then moves on to lunch and she thought she likes to go a bit healthier for lunch, it says. So she said she normally has a grilled piece of fish with spinach or courgettes. Very paleo. Or chicken salad.
Starting point is 00:19:59 Or if she's feeling a bit extreme, she likes to go a beef double-double. Yeah, right. That makes sense too. Large combo. Two or three-piece quarter pack. She likes a two-piece feed. Yeah, right. The Queen, if I know Lizzie, two-piece feed coleslaw.
Starting point is 00:20:17 Yeah. Yeah, loves the coleslaw. Small popcorn chicken. Yeah, small popcorn chicken. Afternoon tea. And this is something she does every afternoon without fail. It's ritual. She always has scones with jam and cream.
Starting point is 00:20:33 And a bong. Yes. She loves. Every afternoon without fail. She loves to just rip one of those. Apparently she puts the jam on first. And then she has a quick vape afterwards.
Starting point is 00:20:51 Anyway, it goes on to talk about what she has for dinner, but it doesn't really say, because she doesn't like to talk about dinner too much, apparently, I don't know why, but this is 100% dead set true. It says one of her favourite things, sometimes she'll have it for dinner,
Starting point is 00:21:07 sometimes she snacks, is a toasty cheese and ham sandwich. Delightful. Yeah. What a life, eh? What a life. I wonder if she cooks it in like a Jaffa maker. She's got a real dirty sunbeam just on the counter in Windsor Castle. And all the cheese runs over the edge and she never cleans it.
Starting point is 00:21:25 She hasn't gone around to cleaning it. She will clean it. It looks nice when she's got it clean, but I mean, she uses it so often. Have you been to my house? That's what mine looks like. What if the cat dragon or the dog or whatever kind of animal you have had an incident in our house last night in the middle of the night, two o'clock in the morning.
Starting point is 00:21:44 We've got two cats and they're indoor cats. And well, they're not indoor cats, but they sleep inside at night. They're not usually roaming. Anyway, two o'clock in the morning,
Starting point is 00:21:55 I hear a flap, flap, flap, flap, flap, flap, flap, flap,
Starting point is 00:21:58 cat door. Cat door. Yeah. And I was like, God, it's either a cat coming in or going out. I hope it's coming in.
Starting point is 00:22:06 Anyway, I didn't think much of it. You're like, where have you been? It's two in the morning. I was worried sick. She comes in, she's got smudged lipstick. One of her kitten heels is broken. Are you, have you been drinking? Have you?
Starting point is 00:22:22 Anyway, the cat was coming in and jumps up on the bed. Again, I don't think much of it. I'm like, oh, well. Pretty normal. It's here now. Pretty normal. We're all good.
Starting point is 00:22:30 And then my wife Lucy goes, Clint, wake up, wake up, wake up. There's something in the bed. And I went, oh, do I have to? Well, that's worrying. Yeah. And I was like, okay, all right. She seemed quite distressed. And so I woke up and she said, I swear to God,
Starting point is 00:22:43 there's something in the bed. And I was like, it's probably just the cat. Like you probably got a fright and you didn't hear the cat door and you're probably just worried about the cat. And she goes, oh, okay. All right, sweet. All right, cool. So we lie back down and I turn the light off
Starting point is 00:22:57 and then I feel in between my toes, something going, crawling between the space, between my big toe and the rest of the toes and I freak. And I throw the duvet off and I go, there's something in the bed! And I grab my phone and I look down
Starting point is 00:23:13 and the cat has brought a cockroach inside and there's a giant cockroach running around inside the bed running through my toes. At which point I slam the phone because this one I'm like, all right, Clint, hide your fear. It's time to step up as the man in the house and do your job. And I slam my phone down on the cockroach.
Starting point is 00:23:35 You put your phone on the cockroach? It's all I had. I didn't want it to escape. You had a shoe. I didn't have a shoe in reach. I just put the phone on top of it to keep the cockroach in place. Oh, we all know cockroaches will get away. Well, I managed to hold on to it.
Starting point is 00:23:50 And I said to my wife, go and get a cup. And she knew the drill. She came back with a cup and a card to slide underneath the thing. Because I don't want to squash a cockroach into the sheets, you know? No. And they say you shouldn't squash a cockroach because then all the babies come out, all the eggs come out its butt. And that's the last thing. They're so hard to't squash a cockroach because then all the babies come out, all the eggs come out its butt. And that's the last thing.
Starting point is 00:24:07 They're so hard to kill, a cockroach. Anyway, long story short, I caught the cockroach. I removed the cockroach. The cat was incredibly pissed off that the cockroach was gone and we went back to sleep and we survived. How did it get underneath the covers? Because the cat popped it. She hops up on the bed near where the pillows are.
Starting point is 00:24:26 And I think she wanted to show us the cockroach. Anyway, she's put it down and the cockroach has immediately run underneath the duvet and is running around inside the bed. So, yeah. That's so off. Did you wash the sheets? No, I went back to sleep immediately. No, no, I mean the next day.
Starting point is 00:24:43 Oh, that's actually a really good idea. Yeah. I'm sure Lucy will be washing the sheets as we speak. I'm sure to sleep immediately. No, no, I mean the next day. Oh, that's actually a really good idea. Yeah. I'm sure Lucy will be washing the sheets as we speak. I'm sure she would have. Did Lucy ever find out what she felt in the bed? Or was that a different type of animal? She's like, we've got some kind of tiny snake. There's a real tiny, I think it's a baby snake.
Starting point is 00:25:02 I want to ask you this afternoon, what did the cat or the dog drag in? What did your animal bring home? And they're often proud. They're like, oh, look what I got you. Oh, they're so proud of themselves. They're so proud of themselves. They love it. Maybe they bought it home and dropped it in your bed.
Starting point is 00:25:15 Maybe you've got one of those pervert cats who goes and steals other people's undies from their washing line. Dogs love that. They love a crutch of a pair of underwear, don't they? Or a stinky shoe. They love it. 0800 dial ZM of a pair of underwear, don't they? Or a stinky shoe. They love it. 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. What are the cat or the dog dragon?
Starting point is 00:25:32 Brianne Clint. We're asking you this afternoon, what are the cat dragon or the dog or whatever other animal you've got? But it would have to be an animal that roams, you know, for it to go and get something for you. Yeah, it has to be outside roaming about. You know, I had a friend who she had the weirdest dog. It was this golden retriever, beautiful dog, but it would do the weirdest thing.
Starting point is 00:25:53 I've never seen a dog do this before, where it would not bring any dead animals back. Yeah. It would bring poos. Oh, yuck. It would pick poos up in its mouth. Other dogs poos? Well, I don't know if it was other dogs. Just other poos? Just poos. Oh, yuck. It would pick poos up in its mouth. Other dogs poos? Well, I don't know if it was other dogs. Just other poos?
Starting point is 00:26:08 Just poos. Like sometimes they'd be white poos sometimes. And it would bring it up onto the balcony and leave it on the front mat. Oh, and think it had done something nice. It was the weirdest thing. Last night my cat brought in a cockroach and put it in the bed and I found it underneath the duvet at like 2 o'clock in the morning. So we're asking you, what did you get given?
Starting point is 00:26:29 What was the gift your wonderful animal gave you, Carl? Hi. Hi, how's it going, guys? Good, thanks, Carl. What did you get? So similar story to Clint. Back in my uni days, I lived in Hamilton at a dodgy flat and I had a pet cat and woke up one night to a cold nose on my back
Starting point is 00:26:47 and thought it was the cat. And then realised that the cat had actually brought in a massive rat and dropped it on my bed. And we're talking, do you think a pet rat, double that size and that's the thing that's sitting in my bed at 3 o'clock in the morning. Alive or dead? Alive. Alive.
Starting point is 00:27:09 Alive cat rat. I don't know which is worse. It's as big as a cat. Yeah, right. I've got to be honest with you, Carl. When you said this happened in Hamilton and you found something mysterious in your bed, I was like, this story's going to go one of two ways.
Starting point is 00:27:22 So I'm quite grateful that you went down the rat. Mysterious girl. Come and get close to go one of two ways. So I'm quite grateful that you went down the rat. Mysterious girl. Come get close to me. Hey, Beth. Hi, Beth. Hi. What sort of animal are we talking about here?
Starting point is 00:27:35 A possum. A possum. And what did your possum drag in? Oh, no, no, no. You ever pet possum? That's dope. No, the possum's what got dragged in. Oh, okay. I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:27:44 Okay. I was going to be like, how did you hand train a possum? No, no, three dogs and a cat. Three dogs and a cat, yeah. What, teamwork? Yeah, teamwork. Teamwork. Okay, and was the possum alive or dead?
Starting point is 00:27:56 Because those things are vicious. They'll rip your arm off. No, possum was dead. Yeah. And I woke up to the sound of all of my animals having a chow down. And a dead possum tail in my bed. Right. Well, at least it shows that they were working together as a team
Starting point is 00:28:15 and they could show good unity, you know? Yeah, you've raised a well-aligned family. Yeah, isn't that lovely? Cats and dogs working together. Yeah, they just have a horrific, murderous streak. So there's something to contend with. I need to read out this one from the text machine. Someone said,
Starting point is 00:28:30 our cat brought in a lamb roast that the neighbour had put on the kitchen table to defrost. Alex, hi. G'day, how are ya? G'day, Alex. What sort of animal have you got first? It was a cat.
Starting point is 00:28:44 A cat? Yeah, and what did the cat drag in? A couple of years back, my sister was home alone How are you? Good. What sort of animal have you got first? It was a cat. A cat? Yeah. And what did the cat drag in? A couple of years back, my sister was home alone. She would have been about 16 at the time. And she could hear, like, creepy voices in the house at night time. Just absolutely panicking and called up mum, like, there's an intruder in the house.
Starting point is 00:28:58 What do I do? But it turns out the cat had stolen a Furby from someone and dragged it in through the cat door. Oh, my God. If you didn't know that... The Furby's just in the hallway chirping away. I love you. If you didn't know that you had a Furby in the house,
Starting point is 00:29:13 you would crap your dacks. Yeah. Wow. And people would think you were crazy too because you'd be like, my house is possessed. You're like, I swear there was someone speaking to me. And finally, Rachel, what did the cat drag in? G'day, Rach. Hey, guys,
Starting point is 00:29:28 my cat brought a roast meal home, like a fully cooked roast beef. Right. Where from, Rach? Sorry? Where from? I don't know. I'm just imagining someone, you know, mum or wife cooked a beautiful roast beef,
Starting point is 00:29:44 turned around and thought, I'll just leave that cool. And then, oh, it's gone. What do you do in that situation? Obviously not fit for human consumption, but your cat is probably incredibly proud of itself. Do you carve it off a little bit of roast beef? Did the cat get to eat some? No.
Starting point is 00:29:57 No, we were pretty angry at it because someone lost their dinner. Yeah, but you could have had some dinner, Rachel. Well, yeah, I could have. The cat's in the corner licking its own butt going, ungrateful. What a good cat. I'd train it to keep doing it. I'd be like, alright, I want lamb for dinner tonight.
Starting point is 00:30:15 I want wicked wings. Yeah, wicked wings. Go! Bree and Clint. How good's The Chase? I love The Chase. Love The Chase. I'm going to go as far as say the best show on TV. I usually only get like one or two questions, but I still get the rush of when I get those two questions right.
Starting point is 00:30:36 And then you see how many they get and you're like, oh, we're going to need some pushbacks. I always say that. I'm like, oh, they're not going to be able to do it without pushbacks. News out today about the Beast. One of the chasers, the Beast, from the chase. Him and his cousin are getting a divorce. Oh.
Starting point is 00:30:51 Well, second cousin. And to be fair to him, they didn't know they were second cousins until after they were married. Oh, right. But you've got your cousins and then you've got your first cousins and then you've got your second cousins, right? You've got to marry someone. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:03 Anyway, he's 54. She's 26. She cheated on to marry someone. Yeah. Anyway, he's 54, she's 26. She cheated on him. Wait, how old? He's 54 and she's 26. Whoa, that's a fairly big age gap too. Yeah, she cheated on him. They tried an open relationship to mend the bridge.
Starting point is 00:31:19 She was like, oh, I don't want you to leave. And she's decided, no, I am leaving. And she's going to live with the guy that she cheated with. So poor Beastie. Aw. Poor Beastie. That's a bit sad for him. I can't believe he's 54.
Starting point is 00:31:33 He looks bloody good. He's good for 54, right? I thought that gives us the perfect opportunity to have our own game of The Chase Celebrity Breakups Edition. I love when they do this topic on The Chase. How this round of The Chase will work is you, Brie Thomasel, will be taking on Becky. Hi, guys.
Starting point is 00:31:54 How are you? Hi, Becky. How good's The Chase? Yeah, I'm good. How are you guys? Good, good, good, good, good. Okay, what I have are questions about celebrity breakups. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:04 I've had to kind of make up my own version because neither of you are really the chaser. I thought you were going to say I had to make up questions because I couldn't find any. No, questions are well researched. Okay, good. Okay, you'll go one for one. All right.
Starting point is 00:32:15 And then if we need to, we'll go to a time. I like one for one because then, you know, it's not too hectic. Okay, first question, we'll start with Becky. Okay. Becky, who did Brad Pitt break up with in 1997? Was it A, Gwyneth Paltrow? Was it B, Christina Applegate? Or was it C, Jennifer Aniston?
Starting point is 00:32:37 Jennifer Aniston, C. I'm sorry, that's incorrect. Oh. No, that would have been later. It was Gwyneth Paltrow. Oh, yeah. Okay, no point to you so far. First question for Brie.
Starting point is 00:32:49 Brie, in our Celebrity Breakups edition of The Chase, what year did the double denim power couple, Justin and Brittany, get together? Ooh. Was it A, 1998, B, 1999, or C, the year 2000? Oh, my God, that's so hard. When did Baby One More Time come out? Because it was after that.
Starting point is 00:33:18 It was after Bye Bye Boy. Sorry, you don't get this long on the chase to answer your questions. I'm going to say 2000. 2000. I'm sorry, that's incorrect. The correct answer was 1999. Oh, so far off. Well, there were only three options,

Starting point is 00:35:58 For you, the chase is over and you've won the chase. How's he do it on TV? It always seems so much more dramatic.

Something I've been loving for a long time is any home renovation. Yeah, you know why?
Starting point is 00:36:50 All the shows. You know why? Why? Because you're 30. You know, I've liked it since... I know. For a while. I know, but something gets you.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Yeah. Something gets you. As soon as you hit that, it ticks over. It's like trips to Bunnings. They become something else. Yeah, there's one particular show called Stay Here. It's like trips to Bunnings. They become something else. Yeah, there's one particular show called Stay Here. It's on Netflix. And it's where they essentially do
Starting point is 00:37:09 up places that are short-term rentals and it shows you how you can make really good money. Love it. That's right in my wheelhouse. I'm so into this show. Anyway, I came across this clip that's doing the round. It's from a few years ago but it is from a home renovation show. It's from a show that's doing the round. It's from a few years ago, but it is from a home
Starting point is 00:37:25 renovation show. It's from a show that's on the BBC called Your Home in Their Hands. And essentially it's where I think, you know, you give up your house and these designers come in and renovate the whole thing. Look, there's a reason why this clip is doing the rounds, but I thought for context, let's hear a bit of what a normal usually reaction on a home renovation show is to when people see their home for the first time. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:37:57 I feel like I'm walking into a real home. You are. I love that. This is now clean. It's not a mudroom. No. It's an actual foyer. It's a foyer. I'm speechless. I just don't even It's not a mudroom. No. It's an actual foyer. It's a foyer.
Starting point is 00:38:05 I'm speechless. I just don't even know. Yep, that's house rules. That's extreme home makeover. That's everything. That's, yeah, pretty. I love it all listed. I love that show.
Starting point is 00:38:15 You know, that's what usually the reaction is. I'm obsessed. Love it. Great job. Thank you so much. On the BBC's Your Home In Their Hands, this guy wasn't so excited. What do you think, Rachel?
Starting point is 00:38:31 I like the wardrobes and... No, it's too much. I wouldn't have done anything like it and I don't like it. I think it looks horrendous. It doesn't look anything like your bedroom. Sorry, but it's big thumbs down from me. It's hideous. I think it's even too much for Rachel if she was to tell the truth.
Starting point is 00:38:45 Is it, Rachel? I do like the bed and the wardrobes. In fairness to the guy, it was horrific. Yeah, right, he's just being honest. Yeah, it was terrible. Bree and Clint. Oh, my God. What? No way.
Starting point is 00:39:02 I can't believe that happened. Oh, my God, no. Are you f***ing kidding me? Bree and Clint. Oh, my God. What? No way. I can't believe that happened. Oh, my God, no. Are you f***ing kidding me? Brie and Clint's Cliffhanger. You know the deal in New Zealand. You call up and tell us three quarters of a really good story, and then you stop. And then what everyone else hears is three endings,
Starting point is 00:39:18 two written by Brie and myself, and then the real ending mixed in there for fun. I'm only one happy. Only one happy. Which is appropriate for today's story. Let's go back to Loretta and recap her cliffhanger one more time. Loretta, take us through everything but the ending. Okay, so I was out for an engagement party and we decided to go to an adult nightclub.
Starting point is 00:39:40 I wanted to sit down, so I pulled out a chair. And then... Ending number one. And then while I was pulling out the chair to lift it, I saw the seat was broken. I ripped my whole finger off. Ending number two. There was a huge pile of cash on the seat.
Starting point is 00:39:59 I was tempted to take it home and keep it, but instead I made it rain on a girl named Diamond. Ending number three. I pulled out the chair and there it was, $600 on the chair. It was my shout for the dances and the drinks for the rest of the night. Corbyn, it's got to be one of those. A, B, C, 1, 2, 3.
Starting point is 00:40:18 What is the correct ending to Loretta's cliffhanger? Hi, I'm thinking it's C. C, which was? And shouting drinks and dances and stuff. Yeah, that'll do. Loretta, what is the correct ending? A. A?
Starting point is 00:40:37 You ripped your finger off. Loretta, what do you mean when you say you ripped your entire finger off? So one variation, it wasn't the entire finger, but it was, so I partially amputated my finger. Oh! Did they put it on ice? They tried, but unfortunately they put it in ice instead of on ice. So they couldn't...
Starting point is 00:41:04 And it died. And it died of surgery. So you've got no finger. I've got a finger, but I've lost the end of it. Which one? The inside of it. Which finger? My middle finger.
Starting point is 00:41:14 Your middle finger. No. No. What are you doing? Traffic. It looks pretty funny. She's like, that lady's not that angry. She's only giving me half a finger.
Starting point is 00:41:26 About time that finger did something for you and you've picked up that fuel from mobile. Thank you, guys. Sorry, bad luck, Corbyn. Congratulations, Loretta. Back up to the news. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:41:38 Exciting news for megastar Brad Pitt. Obviously, he's been in the news quite a lot lately because him and Angelina Jolie are going through their really rough divorce battle. They're trying to. She's delaying it. Yeah, well, I thought that they were already divorced. Yeah. But obviously when you've got that much, you know, stuff, it's complicated.
Starting point is 00:41:59 And pre-COVID we're like, he's definitely going to get back with Jen. Oh, my God, he's definitely going to get back with Jen. Yeah, people did think that. He is in a new relationship. It's not Jennifer Aniston. It's with himself. No. He's on a journey of self-discovery. No. He realised he is the most attractive person
Starting point is 00:42:16 in the world. Well, I would agree with that. He is very good looking, but he's actually rumoured to be dating German model Nicole, forgive me for this, Potorowski. Right. She's 27. I knew it.
Starting point is 00:42:31 And she is an absolute babe. How old is he? He's 50, I want to say 53. Yeah, right. 56. He's 56. She's 27. Which, I mean, good for him.
Starting point is 00:42:43 If he's happy, great. Go, Brad. The interesting part about the story that people are talking about is she's actually married to a 68-year-old guy by the name of, where is his name? Roland Mary, who is a German restaurateur. So he's a millionaire. And they've been married for about eight years and they've got a seven-year-old son together.
Starting point is 00:43:07 And he's sharing his girlfriend or his wife with Brad Pitt. So apparently this guy, Roland Mary, made a comment and said, you know, this is his fourth marriage, he's 68, and he doesn't mind his much younger wife dating other people. Yeah, there's a big difference between your much younger wife dating other people and your much younger wife dating Brad Pitt, People magazine's hottest man of all fricking time. Yeah, look, if she's going to pick,
Starting point is 00:43:36 I wouldn't ask her to pick between you and Brad Pitt. I don't think of myself as an insecure man, but if I was in an open relationship and Brad Pitt was the other guy. He would be off limits. Yeah, that'd be the deal. No Brad Pitt. I'd be like, you can have Leo.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Seriously, if those are the options. God, you're pretty sure of yourself. Well, Leo, Brad Pitt. They're both pretty good if you ask me. Yeah. Leo's got heaps of charisma. So does Brad Pitt. Leo goes in waves though. Leo's a bitaps of charisma. So does Brad Pitt. Leo goes in waves, though.
Starting point is 00:44:05 Leo's a bit younger. Brad Pitt's probably in better shape. Oh, there's just, I mean, you know. Yeah, right. Let's hope this conundrum never comes up. I will stick to my monogamous relationship. Thank you very much. But it is a very interesting conversation to talk about, you know,
Starting point is 00:44:21 open relationships, open marriages, which is obviously another step because it's something that's becoming more and more common, I think, in society. Well, you say that, but I am yet to meet someone in an open relationship. Like I'm yet to have someone in my friend circle going, yeah, we're open. Well, no offence, but you're 33, you've been married for a while, you've got a kid.
Starting point is 00:44:43 I don't know if you're running in the super young, trendy. Excuse me. Excuse me. You're a dad now. That's all I'm saying. You're saying that open marriages are for young people. Old millionaire Mc60pants over there is running an open marriage. Well, I mean, but she's 27.
Starting point is 00:45:00 Yeah. And I'm sure it was probably her idea. Right. Maybe. Well, it would have been her idea when Brad Pitt showed up. Yeah, probably. She's like, I've probably her idea. Right. Maybe. Well, it would have been her idea when Brad Pitt showed up. Yeah, probably. She's like, I've got an idea. Hear me out.
Starting point is 00:45:10 I get to sleep with Brad Pitt. 68-year-old guy goes, who is it? And she goes, Brad Pitt. And he goes, fair enough. And he goes, never heard of him. Yeah. I'm too old. You think it's not very common.
Starting point is 00:45:21 People keep saying it's becoming more common. Like I said, I'm yet to meet anybody in an open relationship. Yeah, but just because you haven't met someone doesn't mean it doesn't exist. That's all I have to go by, okay? I know, but doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Well, prove it then. Open the phone lines and let's see if we can get some calls this afternoon from some people in an open relationship.
Starting point is 00:45:39 Okay. You don't have to be married. You just have to be in a relationship that's open. That can be, and to be honest, an open relationship can be a lot of things. You make the rules. Yeah. That's the good part about it. 0800-DIAL-ZM or you can text us on 9696.
Starting point is 00:45:54 Bree and Clint. Open relationships. That's what we're talking about this afternoon. Brad Pitt's rumoured girlfriend, German model Nicole Poterowski, is actually married to a 68-year-old man named Roland Mary, but apparently they have got an open marriage. So they're, you know, doing whatever they like. They've decided to invite Brad in.
Starting point is 00:46:19 Yeah, why not? If you're going to have an open relationship, go to the top of the tree. Technically they haven't because they're not a thruple. She is just dating Brad. Right. Yeah. But they'd have dinners together, wouldn't they? Probably not, no.
Starting point is 00:46:31 Christmas? No. Birthdays? No. Her birthday. You're saying you don't think anyone in New Zealand is doing this. No, I said I don't believe that it's as popular as some people would have you believe. Because they're like 2020, year of the open relationship.
Starting point is 00:46:44 I'm like, mm-mm. Who's're like, 2020, year of the open relationship. I'm like, mm-mm. Who's saying that? 2020, year of the social distancing, year of get as many people away from me as possible. There couldn't be a worse time to be in an open relationship, really. Yeah, well, I mean, you still have your partner, and then, you know, once this all dies down, you can go back with the open relationship again.
Starting point is 00:47:02 Some people have called, though, and they all want to remain anonymous. First anonymous guest, welcome to the show. Hi, anonymous. Hi. How are you? I'm good. How are you? Good, thank you.
Starting point is 00:47:14 Is this something that you're – are you currently in an open relationship? Oh, no, she put us on hold. Hang on, see how she comes off. She's going to talk to them. She's in an open relationship with us. She's busy. Oh, no. Oh, no, she's gone.
Starting point is 00:47:31 Okay, we'll see if we can get her back. This person also wants to remain anonymous. Hello. Hi. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. Are you in an open relationship, anonymous? Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:47:41 What's the dynamic? What's the situation? How does it work? So we obviously, within the first couple of years of our relationship, thought, oh, this could be weird or interesting. So me and my partner, we both came up with a set of ground rules, what needs to be done, what sort of communication we'd expect around it.
Starting point is 00:48:06 But it was really a mutual decision to open the relationship up. What are the ground rules? People always say you've got to have ground rules, got to have good communication. What are the ground rules? So some of the ground rules we do have are just your stock standard, things like no overnight stays unless previously discussed. If you're going out at night, where are you going?
Starting point is 00:48:22 Who are you seeing? When do I expect you home? Do I need to come up with a panic word in case you need me to give you a call or something like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anonymous, can I ask, is this something like, obviously, you know, this is your relationship, is it something you tell people, like friends and family, or is it something you keep quite private? I'm not open about the fact, but we do have
Starting point is 00:48:45 a small social circle who know that we do have an arrangement where we can stray if the need arises. So they probably need to know, right? So they don't get worried if they see you in town with someone else. No, absolutely not. I mean, I'm introverted to the point of awkwardness, so no
Starting point is 00:49:01 chance of that happening to me in town, but I know they're right. Do you think it's something you keep on the down low with a lot of people because you get quite judged for it? There definitely is that inclination. I mean, I will freely admit I live in a rather conservative part of the country, so it's not really something you really want to publicly broadcast. Because people automatically, because it's not the social norm, they go, what?
Starting point is 00:49:27 That's weird. Not for me. What's going on? Yeah, exactly. Or that, you know, you get the old thing, oh, you're not satisfied with your partner and oh, why do you still need to go and do that? It's like window shopping and trying something on. You don't need to buy the product, but you can sample it.
Starting point is 00:49:41 You just take it for a test drive. Yeah, absolutely. Get some mileage on there. Just finally, because it doesn't, I'm not judging, it just doesn't compute with my brain. It's not the sort of lifestyle that I could do. Don't you get jealous? Like, don't you go, like, isn't there a bit of, like,
Starting point is 00:49:56 I don't know, a bit of jealousy that creeps in? Oh, there definitely can be, and we have got, it's almost like a weak clause in the contract, so to speak, that if there's too much jealousy or feelings start to get involved, either the arrangement stops or we take a step back to re-evaluate. Can you veto a partner? Can you go and deny that person for you? No, sorry, you're not seeing them.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Yep, absolutely. We've done that to each other a few times, going, oh, are you really sure? Are you really sure? Would you veto Brad Pitt? Oh, I mean, there would be the celebrity status about it, but I do have an age criteria. Right.

Starting point is 00:58:19 Banger. For Amy, who was born in the USA. Is that a coincidence or what? Yeah, I think so. She's from Boston. Brie and Clint. Brie and Clint's Lunch With Mama Di. Oh, and Brie too, of course.
Starting point is 00:58:37 If you haven't heard about this, well, then you can't have been on Trade Me in the last three days because it's our latest charity venture, Brie. That's right. You've become mine and my mother it's our latest charity venture, Bree. That's right. You've become mine and my mother's pimp. Somewhat, yep. For a great cause. For a good cause, yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:52 For the Cancer Society, I decided if lunch with Dr. Ashley Bloomfield can sell for something crazy like almost $20,000, how much could our lunch with Mama Di sell for? And she very graciously accepted to be there via Zoom, and she joins us via the phone now. Hi, Mama Di. Hi, Mum.
Starting point is 00:59:13 Hi, guys. How are you going? We're good. Look, I hope you don't mind me riding the coattails of your fame for this. I mean, it's all for a great cause, so. Very much so, but I think it'll be very short-lived, Clint, so you better enjoy it while you can. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:59:29 And I've bolted Brie on there as well. Of course, multiple celebrity appearances, Celebrity Treasure Island, Celebrity I Can Bake That. What else did you do? I did my own show. Have you been paying attention? She also won a talent contest
Starting point is 00:59:46 for singing Achy Breaky Heart. Did she? Oh, the value's just gone up. So what we're auctioning here is the chance to have lunch with you, Mama Di, and our celebrity chef, Brie Thomas-El,
Starting point is 00:59:57 will be making her signature chicken parmigiana, which if you're curious as to know what the recipe would look like, there's actually a video of it on Brie's Instagram account. Lots of slapping of meat
Starting point is 01:00:07 in that video. I love the slapping of meat. So she'll be the chef and you'll be the hostess with the mostest mum and dad. I wanted to ask so we can entice some more bidders
Starting point is 01:00:17 have you thought about how you're going to keep people entertained at the big lunch? I reckon we do quizzes. Oh yeah. Oh yeah, quizzes. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, quizzes. Yeah, we say kind of ones that, you know, they have to come up with some kind of clever or funny answer.
Starting point is 01:00:32 I think it'd go down really well. And I think a music tribute would be great. Yeah. Of some kind of description. Music tribute, yeah, that'd be good. About bingo night, Mum. About bingo. Oh, achy breaky heart.
Starting point is 01:00:45 Are you suggesting that Bree, once she's cooked the main and the dessert, could come out and perform achy breaky heart for our guests? Absolutely. It's a great option. Are you doing anything on this lunch? I've told you, Mum and I can't be here because of COVID, so I'll be holding the stick which has the iPad on it, which she is appearing on.
Starting point is 01:01:04 Well, we're going to be, did you hear mum? Clinton has very graciously to make it seem more realistic, we're going to duct tape the iPad to his face. Which is really nice of him. Oh, I've never looked so good. Yeah, so you're going to have... No,
Starting point is 01:01:20 he's never looked so good. I'm going to duct tape you just above my mouth so that I can have a chicken parmigiana too and it will look like you're eating the chicken parmigiana at the table. It'll be like a 3D experience. I just wanted to ask, before we reveal to you where the bids are at for this, is there anything you would like to add to the menu? Bree's in the kitchen for the afternoon.
Starting point is 01:01:41 Is there anything special you would like Bree to whip up? Absolutely. She does the best tiramisu you'll ever eat. Okay. Okay, could we get a... She does it every Christmas time. Yeah. She does a fantastic job,
Starting point is 01:01:55 and even her father has said that it's better than his mother's, and that's huge. That is huge. Okay, so... The tiramisu takes hours. So if we did a chicken parmigiana, a tiramisu, and that cake that you cooked on New Zealand's hottest home baker, I reckon that's a pretty full menu.
Starting point is 01:02:15 Why would you have two desserts? Because it's for charity. No, that doesn't make sense. You need an entree, a main, and a dessert. Okay, do the tiramisu as an entree. Anti-pasta for entree, a main and a dessert. Okay, do the tiramisu as an entree. Anti-pasta for entree then. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anti-pasto platter, please.
Starting point is 01:02:30 Oh my God, I'm tired thinking about this. Mum and I, currently the leading bid to have lunch with you to raise money for the Cancer Society, get this, $5,050. Oh my goodness me, I had no idea that it would go anywhere much over $100. Neither did we. Yeah, no, we didn't think so. We've had to seriously upgrade the venue. We have promised a bit of a pash with you, though.
Starting point is 01:02:57 Oh, Brianna. Through the iPad. Through the iPad. It's all above board. If you are in the... Mum, oh, okay. Oh, that's right then. Okay. If you are in the... Mum, oh, okay. Oh, that's all right then. If you are the sort of person who has the finances to make this happen,
Starting point is 01:03:09 we really think that this goes corporate now, that you need to push this up the chain to your boss and go, look, we need some staff morale boosting, plus the company needs to do something good for the Cancer Society, go and bid on this auction because it's open until Friday. Current leading bid, $5,050. It's lunch for you and three friends here in Auckland with Mama Di and Bree, the celebrity chef.
Starting point is 01:03:30 So get amongst. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. FN Legends. This is so good. Thanks to our mates at FN Vodka, which is FN Refreshing. It's about E-F-F-E-N.
Starting point is 01:03:44 We want to say cheers to someone for being an effin' legend. That's right. Pretty simple. All you have to do is give us a call and give a shout-out to someone who you think is an effin' legend. What have they done for you? Why do they deserve some cash? Why do you want to celebrate that person?
Starting point is 01:03:59 We'll start with Carl. Hi, Carl. Hi, Carl. Hi. G'day, guys. This is Competitor. You'll go against two others. So, please, in. Hi, Carl. Hi, g'day, guys. This is Competitor. You'll go against two others. So please, in a nutshell,
Starting point is 01:04:06 who are you nominating to be today's FN Legion for $250? Oh, yeah, it's my mate Joe. He's a boulder plumber and electrician. Whoa! And we've just bought a house. Yeah. In Langholm. And he's just been doing work for us for eight months
Starting point is 01:04:20 for absolutely pro bono. The guy's hiding away from his phone. He doesn't want to answer anymore. So I thought if I do this, at least I'll get something for the work he's done. Okay, that is a great place to start. He sounds like a top-notch bloke. Sam, compete with that.
Starting point is 01:04:34 Tell us who's an effing legend. My older brother I'd like to nominate. Why's that, Sam? He's paid for my car twice. It's broken down because I had no job, and it's cost him about $1,100. Oh, that's so nice. Big brother? Yeah, older brother, two years older. Okay, beautiful. Love that too. Let's go to Catherine. Hi, Catherine. Hi, Catherine. Hi. Who's an effing legend? My husband. He is amazing. What's he done? I've had the worst morning sickness the last three weeks,
Starting point is 01:05:08 and he's been working from home during COVID. And he's been getting up every morning, making breakfast in bed, looking after the kids. He's doing the dishes. He's even been getting up and putting our little pig apron on and hanging out the washing. Oh, my. Every day.
Starting point is 01:05:24 He's wearing the pig apron. Okay. The pig apron. And it out the washing. Oh my. Every day. He's wearing the pig apron. Okay. The pig apron. And it's Father's Day this weekend. Okay, that's three really good contenders. We're going to have to throw it over to Bree to decide. Me? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:34 Why am I deciding? You can decide today. I'll decide tomorrow. Oh, they all seem like deserving people. Carl, whose mate is renovating his whole house for him, pro bono. Sam, her brother. I think Sam's hit me in a soft spot because I feel like I've got that relationship with my brother.
Starting point is 01:05:54 Right. And Catherine, whose partner's doing everything. So you want to go with Sam? Yeah. I'm going to go with Sam, whose big brother has paid for her car so she can get around. It's really hard to decide, right? It's really hard to decide. They? It's really hard to decide. They're all really deserving.
Starting point is 01:06:06 But you've done it, so let's go with Sam. Congratulations, Sam. Thanks to FN Vodka, we've got $250 cash for you to give your brother. Oh, thank you so much. He's going to love it. He sounds like he deserves it. And he's a father too. Well, happy Father's Day to your brother then.
Starting point is 01:06:22 Thank you. There you go. We're going to do this every day, so keep thinking of your F in Legends. It's thanks to F in Vodka. Premium vodka, sparkling water, and a hint of natural fruit flavour. It's perfectly balanced. Delish. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 01:06:36 This is a bit of a warning community service announcement to a lot of people, actually. Oh, yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because there was a 26-year-old old guy and he was caught doing 81 kilometers an hour in a 70 zone um which i mean you know not the best but it's not a super massive find that we're not here to encourage it but who hasn't but like let's be real you know uh in the place where i think it was in bavaria. Oh, okay. I thought you meant he was in like Henderson or something. No, he was in a place in Bavaria.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Anyway, the normal punishment for a fine like that is about 32 bucks. Okay. So not super expensive. However, it was a decision he made that actually turned that $32 fine into a $2,627 fine. Oh, no. What was it? So that's pretty much 75 times the normal rate. He challenged the cop to a drag race.
Starting point is 01:07:38 That'd be pretty good. He's like, 75 times or nothing. I win. You pay my fine. Let's do this thing. No, it was actually his decision to give the speed camera that actually caught him. The fingers? Yeah, right.
Starting point is 01:07:56 Okay. He gave the finger to the speed camera and the cops decided to make an example of him and make his fine 75 times. See, that's not right. That's not right. Because, like I said, we're not here to endorse speeding. But if you're willing to take the fine, you should be allowed to do whatever you want.
Starting point is 01:08:14 So long as you still have a hand on the steering wheel. I think. You reckon? I think, yeah. You reckon? I'd draw the line if you were driving and mooning the speed camera at the same time. You know this actually happened to me one time? Of course it did.
Starting point is 01:08:26 Well, not this. I've never given the finger to a speed camera because I'm not a badass. Did you flash your butt at a police officer? No! One time. So in Australia, they've got the speed cameras that, which I'm pretty sure they have here. They'll take a picture.
Starting point is 01:08:40 A photo at the start and a photo at the end? Yes. Yeah. So they've got those speed cameras so that they can prove it. They average out your speed. They've got them in the tunnels in Auckland. Yes. So they're very hard to get away from.
Starting point is 01:08:50 Anyway, back in the day, I was quite young. I remember where I was going. I was on my way to Toowoomba to play some early morning Saturday sport. I was running late. I got done for speeding. I got this picture of me, no bullshit, scoffing an egg and bacon McMuffin in my speeding fine photo. With one arm in your sports bra.
Starting point is 01:09:16 It was ridiculous. I was like, you can even make out the little M's on the McMuffin. Yeah, how much was the fine? It was like $200 and something. That's right. Frame that picture. That's good stuff. I did love, yeah.
