ZM! Let's go, go, go! Now let me see you dance! ZM's Brie and Clint!
Good afternoon everybody! Brie and Clint, let's do that song we practised before.
Okay, alright, ready?
It's our second to last show of the year
And we're so happy and excited that it's, yeah.
It was so good.
It was better than rehearsal.
It was way better than rehearsal.
I knew the pressure of the live stage.
One more time.
From the top.
It's our second last show of the year.
And we're so excited
yeah
we didn't even do verse 2
that's the weird thing
we'll do verse 2 tomorrow
I think that's
I think yeah
I think it's enough for now
and this is what I learned
from all the greats
leave them wanting more
that's it
you never give them so much
that they go
oh I've had enough of that always leave them wanting more. That's it. You never give them so much that they go,
oh, I've had enough of that.
Always leave them wanting more.
It's great.
Speaking of tomorrow,
we'll be tattooing grandparents and grandchildren.
We've got exciting news about exactly who we've chosen.
If you've missed it,
Ariana Grande and her grandma got a tattoo together. So we thought, hey,
do you want to get a tattoo with your grandparent for Christmas?
Let's make memories together.
We can make that happen.
We can mark your bodies for eternity.
It'll be great.
Heaps of people were keen for it.
We were shocked.
I mean, the country's going to be shocked.
It's going to be really fun.
We've got a top three of very deserving grandchildren
with super cute grandparents.
And at 4.30, we're going to let them know exactly how it is
that it's going to be getting that tattoo in the ZDM studio tomorrow.
Up next, I need to tell you about something that someone I've met is doing at a hotel room.
It's very weird.
I don't think many people are doing it.
Is it like a...
It's okay.
It's all right for radio.
Oh, okay, cool.
We'll dance around it.
Cool.
No, it's fine.
It's actually, it's not bad.
Perfect.
Okay, perfect.
But it's strange. Bree and actually, it's not bad. Perfect. Okay, perfect. But it's strange.
Brie and Clint, take us out, guys.
It's the favourite.
Oh, I went into verse two.
Oh.
See, that's what the confusion.
That was the, yeah.
Earlier today, I went to restock my makeup.
So I went down to the makeup shop.
What makeup shop do you go to?
Mac.
Oh, Rich.
Oh, Rich.
I thought you only get Mac if you go to the airport
and you can get it duty free.
Mate, I buy makeup once every seven and a half years.
Oh, okay, cool.
So, you know, it works out.
I'm just giving you shit.
It works out.
Is Mac still the richest one?
What's richer, Mac or Mecca?
Oh, I don't know.
Probably about the same.
Yeah.
I walk in there and a lovely girl behind the counter
recognised me and goes,
I listen to you guys all the time.
That's nice.
Last time you got recognised
was when you were getting a Brazilian.
Yeah, so this was a lot more comfortable.
Her name was Yen. And we had a really big conversation.
We just started talking about Christmas and what you're doing, what's happening. And I
don't know how it came up, but Yen started talking about her mum and what her mum does
at hotel rooms. Wow, you deviated a long way from makeup. Yeah, we had good chats and it
was very strange. and I don't think
I've ever heard of this before
but Yen started off,
she told me,
she goes,
when I go to a hotel room,
I take my own towels.
I don't,
but I can understand
why you might.
But I get that, right?
Someone else has rubbed that
on their bits
and then you're going to rub it
on your face.
Yeah, and I was like,
you can see where you're coming from.
I try not to think about that
because as a germaphobe anyway,
if I start to think too deeply about anything, I'll stop doing it.
Right.
Like I wouldn't drive a rental car.
She then went on to say that, she goes, my mum is next level.
I'm not even bad.
Her mum takes, when she goes to a hotel room,
she takes her own towels, her own pillowcases,
her own sheets and her own doona cover
there's so much work
you're meant to go to a hotel to relax
also if you get the right hotel
the sheets are the best bit
like they're so crispy
I don't know how they wash them or what they do to them
do you ever think though
don't say it because I love going to hotels
how often
are they changing them?
Well, no.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
No, they're changing it between people.
They're definitely changing it between people.
What if someone stays for one night?
No, because when you get in there, they're all crispy and clean.
What about the duvet cover?
Well, it depends on the...
Oh, yuck.
I mean, it's not good...
Your body's touching the doona cover, isn't it?
It's not good for the environment to wash a duvet cover
every time someone stays in that room.
But at the same time, I like to think that it's clean.
Haven't you seen those videos on YouTube
where they'll book themselves into a hotel room
and then they'll spray something that you can see with a blue light
on the duvet cover.
And then they'll wait a day or a couple of
days and then they book themselves back in.
Blue light over the duvet cover, still there.
I'm sure not all hotels.
No, I'm not saying all hotels, but...
You just don't know.
You're right.
And you don't...
I always think...
The problem is you don't know.
You don't know because it's all down to the person
who's cleaning your room.
You don't know if they're having an off day.
Like they might not just be asked.
Maybe they just couldn't be bothered.
We all cut corners.
You're lying if you don't say you don't cut corners
on your job sometimes.
And sometimes maybe you're right.
Maybe you don't feel like...
Maybe someone slept on top of the bed and you're like,
well, I'm not changing those.
The duvet cover, I'd be like, you know, I'd let that slide.
If you're not changing towels though.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Oh, what about the little soaps?
They could just wrap those things back up.
Well, to be honest, I'd hope they would.
Soap?
Pardon me?
What?
What?
What, you're going to throw away a whole bar of soap
after it's been used by one person?
Producer Ellie, producers, is anyone listening to this?
Anyone?
Yeah, that's...
I don't want to use a bar
that someone else has used.
I don't want to use a bar
that you've wiped
in your pits.
That's off, mate.
Oh, dear.
He's still like everything.
No, you're right.
No, you changed my mind.
You changed my mind.
What do you mean
I changed your mind?
Well, this is the way
I look at it.
I don't know how soap
can be dirty because soap is inherently clean.
What's cleaner than soap?
You use soap to clean things, so what could be cleaner than soap?
Yeah, you use soap to clean things.
Where do you think the soap goes?
Back in the soap holder.
I'm never coming to your house ever.
Actually, you're never taking a shower in my shower ever.
Can I just say?
No, no, you've changed your mind on the soap thing.
I'm cool too now.
I think you're just saying that because you're on the radio.
I think you are, mate.
No, damn the environment.
I'll use it once and I'll throw it in the bin.
You're off.
That's it.
In fact, get me body wash and then throw the whole bottle in the bin after.
Chuck it at a sea turtle.
Does that make me, is that better?
I don't know what to say anymore.
This is awkward. Ask what you want to talk about hotels. I don't know what to say anymore. This is awkward.
Ask what you want to talk about hotels.
I want to know from the people.
0800 dial ZM.
What don't you trust at a hotel?
Apparently Clint trusts everything.
No, that's not true.
Including the soap with hair on it.
I know a really interesting...
0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
What don't you trust at a hotel room?
Yeah.
Recently met a girl, lovely,
said her mum doesn't trust a thing at the hotel room,
takes her own duvet, pillowcases, sheets.
She should ask for a discount.
Ask for an unmade room with just the beer beer.
She goes, I'll make it up myself. I'll bring the rest. I just need somewhere to park myself for a discount. Ask for an unmade room with just the beer beer. She goes, I'll make it up myself.
I'll bring the rest.
I just need somewhere to park myself for the evening.
We found out that Clinton Roberts says that he's okay to share soap
with complete strangers.
No, it's not like that.
I just –
What is it?
I wish there was a way that they –
Then you could go back in time and take back what you said.
Sure, yeah, that's what I wish.
So we want to know, what don't you trust in a hotel room?
There's someone on the text machine that said,
I stayed at a motel, I took my own pillowcase,
and then I accidentally left it behind.
Thankfully, I hadn't left town.
I went back to get it.
The rooms had been cleaned, but my pillow was still on the bed.
Oh, you've caught them out there.
You've really caught them in a...
Not good.
How did they not recognise the rogue pillowcase?
What kind of shoddy two-bit motel were you staying at?
I don't know.
Hi, Jared.
Welcome to the show.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas to you guys.
How you doing?
Very well, Jared.
What don't you trust at the hotel?
Now, probably one of the most dodgy things you get at a hotel,
the decorative pillows on the beds.
Like, honestly, when would those get cleaned?
Like, in the scheme of things.
Like, Jared, are you talking about the actual pillow,
not the pillowcase?
No, he's talking about the cushions, I think.
Yeah, the cushions that get, like, sort of chucked on there
to make it look real nice and flashy.
You've got a great point, because they don't have a case on them,
do they?
No, and while, you know, because they're pretty much
just like a one-use sort of thing like that.
When I'm in a hotel too, I spend a lot of time naked because I'm like,
oh, this is –
It's good.
Yeah, I'm in my own little private cell.
And what if someone's come out of the shower full nude
and then they've walked over to the bed and they've parked their bare bottom
on top of one of those cushions?
Absolutely.
Oh, that's such a good point, Jared.
Yuck, you've ruined a whole lot of people's Christmas holidays there, Jared.
Well done.
Hi, Bailey.
Hi, Bailey.
Welcome to the show.
Hi, guys.
How's it going?
Good, thank you.
Don't you trust a hotel room?
Okay, so I don't trust the cutlery and crockery.
Me too.
Did you hear, Bailey, that those cups, you know how they always have a glass in the bathroom?
Yeah.
Apparently, they literally just give them a rinse out in the sink in the bathroom.
They actually don't go back down to the kitchen.
That's what I heard.
Yeah, and this is my point as well.
So I'll use the cutlery and the crockery,
and then I'll just give it a quick rinse under the sink
and then pop it on the sink and leave it there.
And it occurred to me, when the cleaners come in,
do they just go, oh, thanks, he washed it,
and pop it back in the drawer?
Oh, that's so true.
Although, let me again play environmental advocate here.
You can just rinse the cup before you use it.
If that's the thing you're paranoid about,
just give a little rinse before you use it.
You'll be okay.
It's better than using a plastic cup.
Yeah, that's a fair cup. Yeah, that's...
Bailey, what's your opinion on sharing soap?
Ooh.
No, actually, you know what?
I don't mind it.
Bailey.
Yeah!
Bailey.
No, you don't try and convince him.
He's on Team Clint.
We've got one.
No one's on your team for that, mate.
Hi, Dean.
Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas to you guys.
Hello, Dean.
What don't you trust at the hotel room?
The kettle. Well, I call them kettles because I'm from England, but you call them jugs. The jug. Yes, Dean. What don't you trust at the hotel room? The kettle.
Well, I call them kettles because I'm from England,
but you call them jugs.
The jug, yeah.
The jug, and why not?
Well, I know this for a fact that quite a lot of my friends
do quite a lot of travelling,
and sometimes they'll be going from motel to motel or hotel
and they won't have enough underwear,
so they'll boil the kettle
and they will wash their underwear and socks in
the boiling water in the kettle.
More than that, you just pop your undies in the kettle and then you boil it.
That's what I mean.
Yeah.
And it sterilises your undies, gives you perfectly clean undies.
This is the horrific thing about that one, Dean.
I learnt that one this year.
Before then, my favourite thing to do was to treat myself to a cup of tea at the hotel because they
have such a beautiful selection of tea. They've always
got that little Dilmar box with a little
cookie in it too. So you pop
the jug on and you have a cup of tea. And now I
find out that I've been drinking people's dirty ball
water. Yeah, I've lost so many pairs of underwear
just for getting them in the kettle.
Imagine that. You pour your cup of
tea and then you go to fill it back up and you
realise it's been straining through Bree's knickers.
That tea's extra dark.
Bree and Clint on Zit-In.
You know, I had my doubts that there was a heaven,
but I've finally come to terms with that it exists.
And it's a place on earth.
And it's a place right here on earth.
Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth?
Ooh, heaven is a place.
Who was more off key there, you or me?
It was me.
I wasn't perfect.
I'm never on key.
The combo of us two really tanked that song.
Even when it happened, it hurt my ears.
Is producer Ellie listening?
Is producer Ellie listening at the moment?
No, she's on the phone.
Okay, no, don't worry.
She's a beautiful singer.
I was going to see if she could resurrect it for us.
I think there's no resurrecting it.
Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth?
No.
Oh, she's still not listening.
Okay.
You want to keep going or?
Yeah, you tell me what you've found.
I have found a place that exists in Korea.
And I'm pretty much, we're taking the show to Korea next year.
Yeah.
Well, North or South?
Well, which one's the North?
South.
South's good.
We're going to South.
Yeah, cool.
We're going to South Korea.
And can I say on behalf of me and my family, phew.
We're taking the show to Korea and the reason for it is that in Korea exists a 32-acre cheese-themed amusement park.
A cheese-themed amusement park?
Yep.
It's dedicated.
Oh, what?
Don't be bringing that attitude.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
And I hope this doesn't come across racially charged.
But what do the Koreans know about cheese?
Well.
When you say cheese, I think the Italians.
It's true.
The French.
It's true.
You know.
And they only got cheese in Korea back in the 60s.
What do you mean they only got cheese in the 60s?
That's when they only got it.
Really?
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, this backs up my point.
Apparently.
But the theme park was opened in 2004 as a place for visitors to learn about cheese.
You can eat it.
You can make it.
You can go on rides.
All the buildings are shaped like cheeses.
That is honestly heaven on earth to me.
Sorry.
We need to go to that place in Korea.
You're not excited?
I just don't know if it's good.
What do you mean?
Who's to say that the cheese is any good?
This is the main bit, mate.
What, so you're worried?
No, no, no.
What do you love about cheese?
Do you love looking at buildings that are shaped like it
or do you like eating it?
I just like everything about it.
You're like, okay, well, then you should definitely go.
I want to go to somewhere that's dedicated to cheese
and this place has everything, mate.
Mate, you're not getting on board
no it sounds do you just not like cheese as much as i do yeah i do no you don't i do it's not a
cheese what's your favorite gouda no um yeah gouda gouda how many cheeses can you name gouda brie Blue, Swiss, Halloumi, Colby, Tasty, Edam, Grated, Sliced.
Now this is going to make or break our friendship.
What is your favourite cheese?
If you had to pick one cheese to eat, only one,
and you could only have one out of all the delicious cheeses
that are on offer, what cheese?
It would be a blue.
It would be a blue cheese.
You're going to go that drastic?
Yeah, because the taste...
Blue is bloody good.
Yeah.
It is good.
So this is what I'm saying.
At Korean Cheese World,
do we know what it's called?
Do we know what the place is called?
Yeah, it's called...
What's it called?
It's called Imsil Cheese Theme Park.
Do they do a blue?
Do they do a good blue?
They do them all.
Yeah, okay, cool. I think. Tell me again about
Cheese World and I'll sound excited for you. Go on.
Tell me there's a Cheese World in Korea. So, mate, there's a
cheese-themed
amusement park in Korea.
Jesus Christ, that sounds great.
I always say what I'm
feeling. I can't bring you
these amazing finds anymore.
Bree and Clint on ZM. There is a fence of what you've just said to me. I can't bring you these amazing finds anymore.
There is a fence of what you've just said to me.
No, I'm offended.
No, I'm offended.
No, I'm offended.
I am offended because you're calling me a liar.
You said a couple of weeks ago, you said, Hey, guys, I've made up this joke.
It's original Clinton Roberts.
Do you guys want to hear it?
Yes.
Yes.
And the joke was?
And when I said that to you, you've changed the context.
I said, guys, do you want to hear a joke that I invented?
Yeah.
I didn't invent it on the spot.
I invented it a long time ago.
And since then, it has been rock solid material for me.
I've just come across-
But whenever I tell it, I claim it because I made it.
So you tell the joke now
Okay
So
What did the cheese say
When he looked in the mirror
What
Halloumi
I've just come across
That exact same joke
Halloumi
Halloumi
Cheese
On Buzzfeed
Yeah
From 2015
That doesn't mean
That I didn't invent it
That just means
That the joke
No no
That just means
That the joke
That I did invent is
so good
that it made it onto BuzzFeed.
If anything, you should be proud
to know me, to share a radio
show with me. If you can prove it
that you created that joke. How am I meant to prove it?
How am I meant to prove it?
Go and talk to... I'll find the first person
I told it to and ask what the date was.
I made this really good joke, actually.
Why the chicken crossed the road?
No, it's dumb.
Dumb, not funny.
Because you're just taking the piss out of the fact that I did invent a joke and you can't handle it.
Well, I meant to talk to Michelle here about getting a tattoo with her grandma and now we've been railroaded.
No, we can still talk to Michelle.
2015 isn't even that long ago, mate.
It's not even that long ago.
If you said it was a BuzzFeed article from 1902, then I would have gone, oh, you got me.
Someone who invented the joke probably wouldn't get so worked up
about defending that they invented the joke.
Mate, second last show of the year.
Second last show of the year.
Let's talk to Michelle.
It's about Michelle.
No, we're going to come back.
Oh, you need to calm down.
Michelle, can you hold on for a second?
Yeah.
Sorry, Michelle.
Hey, wait.
Michelle, do you think he invented the joke?
Oh, God. No, personally, Michelle. Hey, wait. Michelle, do you think he invented the joke? Oh, God.
No, personally, no.
What do you base that on?
I don't know.
Just because it's not.
Because it's so good.
No, I don't know.
Because it's such a good joke.
There's no way not to.
Because Michelle actually lives in the real world.
We'll be back in a second to tell Michelle she's not getting a free tattoo.
No, she is.
We're doing something cool tomorrow.
Because Ariana Grande has gone and got a tattoo with her grandma.
Yes.
To celebrate her becoming Billboard Magazine's Woman of the Year.
They got a tribute to her.
Late.
Nono.
Yes.
It's still weird to hear you say that in New Zealand.
It means bum in Maori, right?
It means grandfather in Italian, right? It means grandfather in Italian, right?
It does.
So we thought, do you want to do that?
It's a cool idea to be able to share that sort of thing with a grandparent.
Neither Bree nor I can do it because we don't have any grandparents still with us.
I would have loved to have done that.
Can I say, I would have absolutely killed to do it.
Would have been great.
I don't even want a tattoo, but I would like to share that experience with one of my grandparents.
What a nice memory to have.
You, maybe you can, and maybe you want to.
We put the call out.
We said, who wants to do it?
We've got a fairly good list.
We have lost a few people from our list for different reasons.
We've narrowed it down.
Some people's grandparents couldn't do it.
Some people have work commitments and stuff now.
We are now down to a couple of people.
One of them's name is Alicia Alicia and the other one is Michelle.
Hi, Michelle.
Hi, Michelle.
Hi.
Now remind us again, who were you getting the tattoo with and what of?
I'm getting it with my Alma and me just getting Opa written.
Yeah, beautiful.
A tribute to your, yeah, your granddad, right?
Yeah.
Have you thought about the body part in which the tattoo will go?
Well, I want to get it on my arm, but my oma wants it on her back.
Tramp stamp.
Yeah.
Right.
How inappropriate would a tramp stamp of your opa's name be?
She should.
That would be such a gag.
What about butt cheek?
Would she be up for it?
No, no.
I have a friend actually.
I have a friend who has her,
I think she has her grandma's name tattooed
just above her private parts.
Sorry, sorry.
This is taking away from a beautiful thing
that you're doing tomorrow, Michelle.
Now, are you 100% certain that you can one,
get grandma to do it?
Or Ma, rather?
She's keen?
Yep, she's definitely keen.
Yep.
But what's the hesitation, Michelle?
The only thing she was hesitating is she actually had a shift at the op shop tomorrow,
so she had to get that covered.
Stop.
I'm going to cry tomorrow.
I'm not going to be able to handle it.
Where's her op shop?
I think it's in Matamata.
She volunteers.
Wait, is Nana going to drive all the way from Matamata up to Auckland for the tattoo?
She's going to drive to Hamilton.
Yeah.
And then I'm going to drive us up to Auckland.
Okay.
Like, if whatever we have to do, if we have to call the op shop and get her shift covered,
we will.
We'll send producer Ben down there.
He can go and work in the op shop. He can go
take the shift. It'll be bad for business, but
at least we'll get grandma in here. She probably will get
fired for sending him there. Sorry, I keep calling her grandma.
Omar. Okay. Omar.
Let's go on the hope that you guys
can both make it, okay? And we want to say
we would love to shout you and her a
tattoo here at the ZM Studios tomorrow.
Yeah, that sounds amazing.
I'm so excited for you, Michelle.
It's going to be fun.
Did we just get Alicia too or are we trying to get hold of her at the moment?
I think producer Ellie's just got a hold of her.
Okay, cool.
Alicia was going to get the tattoo with her granddad.
Yes, I think that is it.
Alicia, are you there?
I'm here.
We've got great news.
You and granddad are in.
Oh, my God. I'm so excited. It's amazing. news. You and Grandad are in. Oh, my God.
I'm so excited.
It's amazing.
It's going to be so much fun.
You guys are getting the cats, right?
I think so, yeah.
I'm definitely getting the cat, but I'm like, oh, it's a bit hard because he's an old man
and I'm a young woman.
Do you know what I mean?
So we've got to get something that's good for both of us.
Did you hear the suggestion that came through on the text machine yesterday, Alicia?
Yeah.
Someone was saying that you guys should get two cats like sitting next to each other
and then their tails kind of intertwined.
It was cute.
Yeah, I've seen one like that actually.
Yeah, they're really cute.
Like a little heart maybe.
I don't know.
Hopefully he'll be into it.
He seems pretty easygoing.
Kind of represents both of you, you know.
Or if Grandad was up
for the tramp stamp idea,
we could do a dolphin
jumping over a rainbow.
Oh my God, yes.
That's so early 2000s.
I love it.
Yeah, with some like
Chinese lettering
that says peace and love.
You've got 24 hours
to think on it
because we're going to
have you guys here
in the studio tomorrow,
okay Alicia?
Awesome.
Sounds good.
I can't wait.
Neither can we.
This is going to be
so much fun.
Can't wait to meet everyone.
Yeah. Sounds good. I can't wait. Neither can we. This is going to be so much fun. Can't wait to meet everyone.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
Hey.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's birthday banger.
Second last birthday banger of the year.
It needs to go off with the bang.
It really does.
Let's go to Paula.
Cue to Paula.
Hello, Paula.
Hi, guys.
Come on, Paula.
What's your birthday? Can you feel the pressure, Paula?
Can you feel the pressure to have
a good birthday that gives us a good birthday
banger? I hope so.
It is the 11th of May
1982.
Okay, Paula. You were 16
in 1998 on the 11th of
May, and on that day
this was number one.
Shania Twain.
Oh, that really is a Shania Twain.
Yeah, Shania Twain, you're still the one.
Yeah.
Do you love a bit of Shania?
Oh, I loved Shania when I was growing up.
And she's coming to New Zealand like next week.
She is coming like next week.
Next Wednesday.
Brie is an absolute Shania fangirl.
I love her.
I think you've got a strong chance of taking this out.
Let's find out what other birthday bangers we've got.
Hi, Scott.
Hello, Scott.
G'day, how are you?
Good, thanks.
What's your birthday?
14th of June, 79.
Okay, Scotty, you were 16 in 1995 on the 14th of June.
And back in the 90s, this was top of the charts.
This is a song called Mouth.
Meryl Bainbridge.
By Meryl Bainbridge.
I don't like this song.
Scott, Scott,
how disappointed are you in your birthday banger?
I'm very disappointed.
I'm so sorry, Scott.
Do you like Shania Twain, Scott?
I'm thinking that's going to definitely be the winner so far.
Okay, all right, let's find out what our last birthday banger is.
Hi, Renee.
Hi, Renee.
Hi, guys.
What's your birthday, Renee?
29th of January, 1982.
Okay, Renee, you were 16 in 1998 on the 29th of January,
and this is your birthday banger.
You've got the other Aqua song, Dr. Jones.
How do you feel about Aqua?
Yeah, yeah.
Renee, Renee, in your opinion, I mean, it's neck and neck.
Dr. Jones or you're still the one Shania. What would you go with?
Oh, 100% Aqua.
Oh, okay.
Oh, okay.
She's fine for a birthday banger.
I didn't see that coming.
We're going to have to deliberate.
Okay, we'll have to put you there.
I really like both.
You really like both?
Mm.
If it was Shania Twain.
That don't impress me much.
Or Let's Go Girls.
Man, I Feel Like a Woman.
Yeah.
Do you want to cop out and give it to the producers?
Yeah No we can do this
We can do this
You and I need to do this
I can't not picture
I know you love both
Aqua, Dr Jones
It's a very good Aqua song
It's the second best Aqua song
It's the only
It's one of my top three Equus songs.
Any help on the text machine?
Let me give you a little bit.
Let me give you a little bit to get you across the line.
This is how Dr. Jones starts, okay?
This is what you're in for.
Don't worry about that bit.
This bit.
Or we do Shania.
It's this, eh?
Oh, it's this.
Oh, look at Ross Moss.
He's feeling it.
Paula.
Yes.
Can you give us a big fat get it in ya.
Woo-hoo-hoo.
She can't, but we can still play her song.
The tech machine is overwhelmingly Shania Twain.
Yes!
I love Shania.
It's Shania.
Happy birthday, Banga Paula.
It's Shania.
Happy birthday, Banga Paula.
Thanks, guys.
Yes!
We've come up, baby.
We might have took the long way.
Look how far we've come, my baby.
Zinium, Bree and Clint, you happy?
You happy?
Made the right decision?
I've never been so happy.
That's birthday banger.
Let's go, girls.
How gutted are you that you're missing this concert?
Bree's not going to be in the country for the Shania gig.
I can't talk about it.
Don't stop, that's so mean.
She also got offered a free ticket. No!
Honestly?
Yeah.
It's honestly one of the most devastating moments.
You know, there comes a time in life where you have to make the hard decisions.
Your family or Shania Twain?
How many hit singles does your family have?
Should have picked Shania.
Yeah. How many hit singles does your family have? Should have picked Shania.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
Bree and Clint, Santa's little helpers.
Thanks to Jobless, the place for Kiwis to get stuff done.
Maybe you need some help before Christmas.
Maybe you need some people to come around and, I don't know,
do whatever you need them to do.
Jobless is a place where you can put those jobs up and then people will come and do them for you. You just say, I've got
this job and I've got this much money for it
and someone will go, I know how to do that. I'll do that for you.
I'll come over and do it. So we're
going to do that live on the radio. You tell us
what the job is you need done before Christmas
specifically and we'll get that done
for you and give you a $300 Prezi card
if yours is our favourite one. Hey Matt.
Hi Matt. Hey, how's it going? Good thanks.
What do you need done? Oh man, I need my lawn done. Hey, Matt. Hi, Matt. Hey, how's it going? Good, thanks. What do you need done?
Oh, man, I need my lawns done.
Oh, your lawns. We had a lawn yesterday.
Yesterday we had a lady who had an acre.
Oh, no, I don't have an acre.
And no lawnmower.
Are yours nice and small?
It's pretty small.
I mean, I put a washing line up in it the other day
and I looked at the lawns and I'm like,
no, I haven't got time for that.
I don't have time for that.
Hang on, Matt.
Hang on, Matt.
You've got a lawnmower, do you?
No, I've got a weed whacker.
Okay.
Just can't be bothered.
We don't call it a weed whacker.
We call it a whippersnipper.
No, you don't.
We do.
A whippersnipper.
Because in my brain, I was like, what's a weed whacker?
And I was like, oh, it must be a whippersnipper.
Well, that sounds very weird to us,
but then I guess weed whacker sounds quite weird to you.
Yeah, I was thinking you were talking about something else.
Matt.
Nope.
Whipper snipper.
Okay, Matt, you're in the running, mate. Let's see what other jobs we've got
lined up. Hi, Tyler. Merry Christmas.
Hello, Tyler. Merry Christmas, guys. How are you?
Good. How are you, mate? Very good, thank you.
What do you need done?
Just need a bit of interior cleaning done before our
Christmas party on Christmas Eve. A bit of interior cleaning. before our Christmas party on Christmas Eve.
A bit of interior cleaning.
Are we talking about the work office space or?
Home.
Home.
Okay.
How dirty are we talking?
Are we talking old food on plates?
Are we talking stains on carpet?
Nah, not quite that bad.
Not a general tidy.
Just a general tidy up.
This is good.
See, at the moment, these are very doable jobs.
It's also just two dudes who just can't be bothered doing the things themselves.
I love it.
Work's busy.
Oh, work's busy, mate.
It's a busy time of the year.
Nah, I love it.
Get those things done.
It was not a criticism.
Please don't take it that way.
One more on job list.
Let's go to Erin.
Hi, Erin.
Hi, Erin.
Hello, guys.
How are you?
Oh, good.
That's good.
What do you need done, Erin?
I accidentally defrosted my stand-up freezer and everything defrosted.
No. So? So what? You need someone to mop it up? I accidentally defrosted my stand-up freezer And everything defrosted No
So
So what?
You need someone to mop it up?
You need someone to throw out your rotten food?
What do you need?
I throw away the food
But I'm too queasy to clean it
You've got a rotten smelling fridge?
Oh, that costs a fortune, Erin
All the meat for Christmas is gone
All the meat for Christmas is gone
See, I like those two other guys,
but we can solve two problems for you at once.
We can get someone to clean the freezer,
and then with the $300,
you can go and get everything you need for Christmas again, right?
Get a couple of hams, Erin.
Oh, sweet.
Thanks, guys.
Well, she's made the decision for us.
Fantastic.
Lock it in.
Erin, Merry Christmas.
Thanks to joblist.co.nz.
We're going to get that done for you,
and we're going to get you that Prezi card as well.
That is wonderful.
Thank you so much.
No worries.
No problems.
You have a great Christmas.
Joblist is the place for Kiwis to get stuff done.
You can head to joblist.co.nz today.
If it was you, what would you get done?
What do you need done at your house?
I would really want someone to do my whites
because I'm not good at washing whites, you know?
They've got stains, mate.
Cool, man.
We just gave away a Christmas present thanks to Joblist.
We gave away a Prezi card, which is essentially a voucher, right?
It's essentially a gift card.
No.
It's a card loaded with cash that we give as a gift.
It's not a gift card.
It is a gift card.
No, it's not. It's a card that we give as a gift. It's not a gift card. It is a gift card. No, it's not.
It's a card that you give as a gift.
You can use it anywhere.
The reason I say that is because it's a contentious issue on this show,
and I know with a lot of people it is too.
Gift cards not being appreciated as Christmas gifts.
A gift card is a crappy present.
A gift card is a great present.
We've had this discussion.
Now, Brie is an anti-gift carder
and I've seen inside her wallet
you've got redundant, like
there's a prezi card in there that you didn't even know how much money
was on it. No, because I don't know how to use it.
I forget it's in there. That's your
problem. You don't get around to using
them. You know what I hate the most? What?
Is when you use it, you then don't
know how much is on it so you end up leaving
a little bit on it every now and then.
Yeah, but you didn't pay for it in the first place,
so don't worry about it.
If it's a gift.
It wasn't a gift.
I worked for that.
Oh, that's different.
Yeah.
I'm not talking about you getting underhanded payments
that you don't have to pay tax on.
If the tax person's listening, it was a gift.
I'm not talking about you doing dodgy deals.
It was a gift.
From my long-lost cousin.
Brie gets paid in iTunes vouchers.
If anyone's listening.
She's like a Mexican drug cartel.
I'm open to that.
I know you today tried to deal with one of your old gift cards.
This is an actual gift card.
It's a flight centre one.
And it had how much on it?
It had 300 bucks on it.
Yeah.
That one was a gift?
It was a gift and it was a leaving present from my last job this time last year. Oh, it was
an Australian one? Yes. But it works here in New Zealand at Flight Centre?
Well, I don't know. You today took it to a Flight Centre
to use it. Is that right? No. It expires. It says
on the card that it expires tomorrow. Yeah. I called Flight
Centre here in New Zealand and I said,
what do I do with this card?
I don't want to use it.
I don't have anything to use it for right now,
but obviously I don't want to lose $300.
What can I do?
They said, you can go to your nearest Flight Centre store
and you can pay $25 and it will renew for another year.
Oh, that's an interesting catch.
Wait, so, okay.
Because my idea was get the $300 gift card,
go to Flight Centre and buy a $300 gift card.
And that way you'd have another year to go.
I wonder if you could do that.
Surely you can spend gift cards on gift cards.
Well, when I went in there, they said to me,
oh, those gift cards we actually aren't using anymore.
We're using a different system now.
Yeah.
They still have to honour it though.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They still have to deal with it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They did say that.
Yeah.
But then, mate.
So you paid your $325.
Yeah.
Sorry, you paid your $25 to renew it.
Yeah, so now I don't.
Do you now have $325 on that voucher?
I don't.
Do you just have to top it up?
I don't know.
I didn't ask.
I probably should have asked.
This is the problem though, because a $300 flight,
there's people who buy gift cards all the time.
It's such a great default present,
but you have taken flights this year and you didn't use your voucher.
You don't hate gift cards.
You hate remembering to use a gift card.
Guess what?
Because then I said, I was like, what's stopping me from using this gift card?
I remember now because I've tried to use that gift card this year.
Yeah.
You have to physically go into a flight centre to use that gift card.
You can't use it on the internet.
You also have to book a flight that's on Flight Centre.
That's their business, though.
They're travel agents.
You do realise that...
No, I get the business.
Flight Centre exists despite the internet.
No, I get it.
It doesn't exist on the internet.
They want you to go there so they can tell you where to go.
I'm not booking a trip over to Vanuatu.
I'm booking a trip back to Aussie.
I don't need a flight person.
What are they called?
I don't need someone to help me.
Okay.
All right.
But you've still got the voucher.
It's good for another year?
No, apparently I've only got a couple.
Oh, it's not a year.
Apparently it's less than that.
Right.
Okay.
Six months?
Yeah, I think so.
Okay.
Talk to you in June.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
Time for the final What's the Plot of the Year.
I don't trust you.
What's going on?
It's our movie guessing game.
You have a disgustingly large lead in this game.
It is a fait accompli, the result for the year,
but that doesn't mean we can't have a good last round, right?
I can tell by your face that you've planned something.
Producer Ben can't keep a straight face.
This from the person who cheated for the last month and a half
in our other game that we played.
And got away with it.
Yeah, well, let's play.
After 23 weeks
of playing What's the Plot,
Brie Thomasel
has only ever lost
four times.
God damn it!
Now,
we change the game.
Today is the last ever What's the Plot of 2018.
So, today only, every caller that beats Brie will win a double pass to any Drax Project show in New Zealand.
This is Brie and Clint's final What's The Plot?
For the year.
It is.
When did you organise that?
Don't worry about it.
It's organised.
Now, you've got to accept just because we've highly incentivised people to play well,
that does not constitute cheating, right?
No, I want them to win.
No, you want to win.
I do want to win, but then I also, I don't really don't.
Incentivising people to play well is not cheating, correct?
Yes.
Cool.
Now, everybody who gets a point can go to any Drax Project show on their summer tour.
That's fine.
Okay.
Chantal, welcome to What's the Plot?
You can confirm there is no underhanded business here, right?
There's no, we haven't organised you,
we haven't given you the answers in advance, right?
No, we haven't.
Fantastic.
I actually want them to win.
I don't want to take tickets off them.
Let's go.
But I also, yeah, can't lose.
Sorry, Chantal.
Very first movie, when you know what it is,
yell out your name as your buzzer, Chantal,
and then you get to guess.
Movie number one.
A man known by his nickname, Jake the Muss, loves eggs.
Chantal.
Chantal.
Once Were Warriors.
Once Were Warriors is absolutely correct.
I see what you've done.
You're off to Drax Project, Chantal.
Well done.
Don't act like you're letting them win, by the way.
They're all New Zealand movies.
We've only done one movie.
I already know you too well.
We've only done one movie.
We've only done one movie.
I've never heard of that movie.
Ben, welcome to the show.
Hey, mate.
You know the rules. No cheating whatsoever. Hey, mate. You know the rules.
No cheating whatsoever.
This is BS. You get this correct,
you're off to Drax Project, okay?
Alright, let's do it. You yell out
Ben as soon as you know what the movie is.
Alright. Movie number two.
A young boy named Boy
who... Ben.
Oh, mate, that's Boy. Boy!
The people are on fire today! The people are on fire today!
The people are on fire!
Ben, you're going to Drax Project, mate.
Congratulations.
Thank you so much.
You know what?
We wouldn't normally do this, but we're going for all three this week.
Stacey, welcome to the show.
Hi.
It's all on the line, baby.
It's all on the line, okay?
She reckons she's so good at this, but so far she hasn't got off the mark.
Let me guess. That was a New Zealand indie film got off the mark. Let me guess, that was a
New Zealand indie film. Let me check.
Boy, no, that was a full-scale production. That was
in cinemas everywhere. And where was that?
All around New Zealand, Australia. All around
New Zealand. Yeah, it got shown in Australia.
My cousin's got a DVD of it over there.
Movie number three.
Your buzzer is your name, Stacey. I'm not
even going to... Turn my mic off.
No, no, no. Excuse me. Excuse me. Don't insult the game. Don't insult Stacey. Stacey. I'm not even going to turn my mic off. No, no, no, no. Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Don't insult the game.
Don't insult Stacey.
Stacey, I want you to go to Drax Project.
I'm going to let you win.
I would love to.
Movie number three.
Pykia loves whales so much so that she's been...
Bree.
Stacey?
Bree.
Whale Rider?
Oh, Stacey!
I got it!
No, give her the ticket.
No, she can't have the tickets now.
No, she can have the tickets.
No, because of what you did, she can't have the tickets.
I just wanted to win.
That game technically didn't count, so Stacey gets the tickets.
Stacey, we're sending you to Drex Project as well.
Oh, that's awesome.
Thank you.
No problems.
I won!
I deserve that. How do you know. No problems. I deserve that.
How do you know Whale Rider? I love that film.
Last night, after
you went home,
what did you have for dinner?
420 Blazers.
I was going to say.
And I don't want you to get in trouble here.
I don't want to encourage illegal behaviour, but
did you partake in the devil's lettuce at all?
Completely sober.
Did not have any alcohol, no drugs.
I'm not about that life.
Had nothing.
Because I heard you spark up a conversation
that you tried to bring to the radio the other day
and you're lying on your bed
and I'd like to do an interpretation of the first line.
Do you guys ever wonder what's our version of honey?
You know how bees make honey?
What's our honey?
What?
Why did you make me sound like spiritual or something?
I didn't mean to.
I just, I just, I watched the first two bats and I was like,
oh no, I feel stupid just watching this.
Well, do you know?
No, I don't.
Did you know before I put it on my Instagram story
and I figured it out using Google, did you know?
What?
What human beings' version of honey is?
Yeah.
Well, I assume milk.
That's what you assumed, right?
Yeah.
Or nothing.
What do you mean or nothing?
Maybe we don't make it.
Maybe we don't produce anything.
Well, I wasn't going to let that stop me.
Yeah.
And people listening right now probably know what it is,
but there'd be people listening that don't know what that is.
Well, I'm keeping an eye on the text machine as you drag out this epic saga.
I'd love for people, there's so many suggestions of people
when they were watching the Instagram story.
A lot of people said milk.
A lot of people said, how would you?
Oh, man milk?
Yeah.
Oh, yuck.
Yeah, that?
No.
By the way, I have thought that honey might be BJ's.
Yeah, I kind of thought that that's what it was.
And then there were some other real weird ones.
I can't remember, but a lot of people said a lot of different stuff.
Turns out our version of honey is vomit.
What?
Well, not really.
Not really. But technically, honey is is vomit. What? Well, not really. Not really.
But technically honey is bee vomit.
Why is it bee vomit?
So they go around to the flower and they pull out the pollen
from the flower and then it goes in.
The phones are open to any scientists listening, by the way,
who are going, this is bullshit.
Oh, $800.
Carry on.
It then goes into their stomach and they do something in there.
I don't know what they do with it.
And then they regurgitate it back out.
Right.
So technically, vomit.
Bee excretion.
How cool are bees that they can do that with their vomit?
Our vomit just has chunks in it.
Do you know that honey's not vegan?
Yeah, I know.
Because it's an animal product.
Yeah.
It's an insect product.
So the bees make it for their...
And I'm not trying to talk shit about vegans,
but what do bees do with the honey?
Like if we didn't take it...
They give it to their young.
Oh.
I think...
Are we robbing...
I got way deep in bee Google last night.
Like real deep.
Do you think anybody listening at the moment just learned anything?
Can you please, if you just were today years old,
when you learned what honey actually is and where it comes from,
like obviously it comes from bee, but how bees do it, can you text us?
Yeah.
And if you were making breakfast for your loved one tomorrow,
can you please say, hey, honey, do you want some bee vomit on toast?
Bree and Clint on ZM. Hey, how about this story about this guy in Australia Can you please say, hey, honey, do you want some bee vomit on toast?
Hey, how about this story about this guy in Australia who had the magical ATM card?
Have you read this?
I saw the headline.
His name is Dan Saunders and he's from Wangaratta in rural Victoria.
Oh, I love Wangaratta.
Is that how you would say it?
Wangaratta?
Probably, yeah.
Wangaratta.
In New Zealand, you'd say Wangaratta.
Yeah. Yeah, we say Wang. Wang. He's from the Wang.ata? Probably, yeah, Wangarata. In New Zealand, you'd say Wangarata. Yeah. But, um...
Yeah, we say Wang.
Wang.
He's from the Wang.
He's from deep in the Wang.
And he went to the ATM
and he punched in $200.
He wanted $200 cash out,
put his bank card in,
and then it said
transaction cancelled,
kicked his card back out,
and it gave him the money.
No!
He checked his bank account.
This is in 2011. He checked his bank account. This is in 2011.
He checked his bank account.
The $200 hadn't been taken out of his account.
Oh my God.
So he went back and he tried it with $500.
Same thing.
Transaction cancelled.
Gives him his card back.
The money came out.
Was it just the ATM?
From what I can read, I think it was that specific ATM and his card.
Right.
I'm not sure if it worked everywhere.
So he's onto this thing. This is something
this is a plot to a movie, right?
He's onto this thing. He's
constantly looking over his shoulder to see if he's being
like pranked or stalked or
like if it's a trap or something like that.
Doesn't stop. He took out
$20,000 in three weeks.
Blew it. Spent it.
He spent $1.6 million in four months.
Oh, my God.
He just kept going to the same ATM, taking out the money, checking his account.
The money never came out of his account.
Can you imagine?
What would you do if that happened?
What is the first thing you'd do?
I'd probably call my bank.
No, get stuffed, you would.
No, listen to me, listen to me.
You're never going to get away with it.
It's always going to catch up to you.
Well, listen to this, okay?
So he goes mental, okay?
He goes buying designer clothes.
He's like, I've never been rich.
I'm going to go get all the things that I want.
And he just goes crazy.
He spent $90,000 on a private jet to take him and some of his mates to Asia for the weekend.
How was he explaining this to people he knew?
No, well, this is the bit, you know.
Like, because obviously people are going to say, where did you get that Maserati?
You know what I mean?
He works in a pub too.
So, like, well, he did work in a pub.
So he can't really play it off that he got a pay rise.
You could see the big tip. Big tip. Yeah, how big? Big tip in the pub too. So, well he did work in a pub. So he can't really play it off that he got a pay rise. You could see the big tip.
Big tip.
Yeah, how big?
Big tip in the wang.
It's a big tip in the wang.
So anyway,
he spent all that money.
He had an attack of conscience.
What,
after he spent 1.6?
Yes,
after he spent 1.6.
Apparently he goes,
what am I going to do?
Am I going to just keep doing this
for the rest of my life?
Yes,
Dan Saunders, you are.
He decided no.
He's like, no, that's not the life for me.
Oh, well, he's stupid then.
The only reason he got caught, he told his bank.
Oh.
They didn't have any idea.
They didn't even know what was going on.
He went to them and he goes, hey, this has been happening
and this is what I've done.
Why?
They looked into it, figured it out, sent him to prison. He went to prison and he goes, hey, this has been happening and this is what I've done. Why? Figured it out.
Send him to prison.
He went to prison for a year.
He got charged with obtaining money by deception
and sentenced to a whole year behind bars in 2015.
They would have eventually got him.
Maybe.
This is the thing, though.
They gave him a year for 1.6.
Yeah.
He probably would have got a year for 2.6. Yeah. Yeah. He probably would have got a year for 2.6.
Yeah, probably. He should have lived it up
longer. And
did they go easy on him because he dobbed himself in?
It doesn't sound like it. Because if they did, they would
have gone, okay, don't do it again. Yeah, he dobbed
himself in after he spent 1.6
million dollars. I just think he should have
pushed it a bit further. Yeah, well, to be
honest, I would have said, you know, I would have told my bank
but if you were already there, if you'd already bit further. Yeah, well, to be honest, I would have said, you know, I would have told my bank, but if you were already there,
if you'd already spent 1.6,
you may as well go nuts. Can you not just play
dumb, Toe? Can you not just go,
oh, I don't check my bank statement.
I just assumed, the money kept coming out,
so I just assumed it was, if anything, this is your fault.
Bank, if anything,
you've got me accustomed to a new lifestyle
that I wasn't at before, and now
I've got an addiction to cocaine as well
that's your fault
I'm taking you to court for that
I don't know if you can play it off
turn it back on him
I should be a lawyer
I don't know if you can play it off
when you had 600 bucks in your account
to start off with
good point

I thought it was mine
if anybody has one of those cards right now
and you're listening

and oh what am I allowed to encourage not that okay no I cancelled what I was going to say If anybody has one of those cards right now and you're listening, just know.
And what am I allowed to encourage?
Not that?
Okay, no, I cancelled what I was going to say.
No, no, I want to hear what you were going to say. Go to the police and do the right thing.
Why are you winking?
Brie and Clint, ZM.
I've got another list for you.
And Netflix has released some stats about the last year
and what people were watching in New Zealand,
what was their most popular shows, movies.
And it's interesting.
Sorry, did you mean Netflix?
Yeah.
You know what I don't like about this list?
I'm just going to openly say it.
I don't like how they haven't included non-Netflix stuff.
Because I want to know what people, you know.
How do they know?
What do you mean?
How do the people at Netflix mean to know what you were watching
that wasn't on Netflix?
No, as in they've only included stuff on Netflix that Netflix have made.
Oh.
Yeah.
Oh, so Friends isn't on there.
No.
Oh.
Which is kind of annoying because I'm like.
Most of the good stuff on Netflix wasn't made by Netflix.
Like Luther. Yeah, the only good stuff made by Netflix was like Orange is the of annoying. Because most of the good stuff on Netflix wasn't made by Netflix. Like Luther.
Yeah, the only good stuff made by Netflix was like Orange is the New Black.
House of Cards was good.
House of Cards was good.
Stranger Things was good.
That was good.
Ozark's pretty good.
There's a few good ones.
Okay, right.
Anyway, in terms of movies, not so much.
Okay, cool.
The top two most watched movies that Netflix made on Netflix this year
is To All the Boys I've Loved Before.
I like that movie.
I haven't seen it.
Cheesy, cheesy teen high school romance movie where the ugly duckling gets the boy.
Right.
Yeah.
Cool.
I haven't seen that one, but I have seen this one, The Kissing Booth.
Haven't seen that one.
You haven't seen it?
No.
I didn't mind it.
So they were the two most re-watched Netflix films. Who's in The Kissing Booth. Haven't seen that one. You haven't seen it? No. I didn't mind it. So they were the two most
re-watched Netflix films. Who's in The Kissing Booth?
No one famous.
No one super famous. But I
have noticed a few of those people have gotten more
roles now in other stuff.
But the list of the TV
shows, these are based
on the highest average watch time
per viewing session. On what
platform? On Netflix.
Right, so this is when people binge watch stuff.
Coming in at number five, Orange is the New Black, season six.
Was the top.
Was that the final season?
That was the final season.
Yeah.
Yep.
Four, Insatiable.
Did you see that?
No.
It was about a girl who was quite large and then she lost all this weight.
I heard that was massively controversial
Yeah
Because she lost weight
And then her life got better
No and then she turned into a real cow
Oh
Yeah
So that's number four
Number three was
The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina
Which was real recent
Yeah I don't watch it
You don't watch it?
I watched the first episode
And it was so drastically different
From the original
That's the problem
I think if you don't know
Original Sabrina
You could probably get into it This this one was real dark just going
where's melissa joan hart in the cat yeah there's people getting stabbed and stuff in this one oh
yeah i know on the melissa joan hart one they just rode around on vacuum cleaners and had some
classic auntie chat and they jumped into the uh the towel closet and went to the other realm yeah
that was a good show that was a great show show. What was the love interest name? Harvey.
Harvey. Harvey Wine? No.
No.
No!
Harvey Finkel. Okay.
Doesn't matter what you say after that. Moving on.
Number two was Bodyguard.
Most streams. Oh, Bodyguard is so good!
Yeah, which you love. If you haven't watched Bodyguard
yet, Brie watched the first episode, right?
Yes. And you couldn't get it off the first episode. I? Yes. And you couldn't get it off the first episode.
I don't understand how you didn't make it past the first episode.
I got halfway through the first episode.
It is so dramatic, and according to my wife and me as well, the guy in it is so hot.
Like, what's not to love?
I don't know.
Maybe I should give it another go.
Definitely give it another go.
It's not The Bodyguard either.
That's the movie with Whitney Houston in it.
Yeah, don't get mixed up.
You need Bodyguard.
You'll be watching it and you're like, this isn't
what I thought it was going to be. The number
one most binge watched
show on Netflix this year
for Kiwis was
On My Block. What?
Have you ever heard of that?
Never heard of it. I've never heard of that
show. What is it?
Apparently it is based
on a, wait, no, it's a coming of age series.
Are you sure you're not talking about The Block?
No.
With racist Mark Richardson?
No.
Oh, yeah.
No?
Hell no.
That was way down the list.
Because Kiwis love The Block.
No, it's On My Block.
Apparently, the most binge-watched show.
That was a bit disappointing, wasn't it?
Yeah.
It's one for luck.
Two days until I
take on the big
race.
I'm doing the
half Ironman in
Rotorua this
Saturday.
You thought that
you'd been swimming
1.2 Ks in
practice this week.
Turns out you're
terrible at math and
you'd been swimming
600 metres.
It hasn't gone,
the training has not
been perfect. There is no training. It hasn't gone. The training has not been perfect.
There is no training.
Stop calling it training.
I have trained every second day since Monday.
I'll have you know.
Thank you very much.
So that means you've swum twice.
You've literally swum twice.
The key ingredient has just arrived.
The key ingredient to make this swim happen and make it a success has just arrived.
And I just want to show you just quickly.
I'm assuming it's a wetsuit.
It's a wetsuit. It's a wetsuit.
Where did you get that from?
I borrowed it off a friend.
Now you might have seen
on my Instagram this morning
I was wearing a wetsuit.
And it was a woman
that you tagged.
Yeah.
So I'm not wearing that one
because it wasn't a woman's wetsuit
it was her brother's wetsuit.
Don't worry about that.
But it was the wrong one.
That was a surfing wetsuit.
Okay.
This is a swimming wetsuit.
What's the difference?
Floatier?
You don't know. I don't know. But I know this is the thing uh uh uh floatier you don't know i don't know but i know this is the thing don't pretend like you know i know that this is the thing that is going to get
me across the finish line in one piece this weekend the only thing is i haven't tried this
on how are you gonna get into that i haven't tried this on yet that is. But it's meant to be tight. I don't know if I can get into it by myself.
So are you
willing to help me try and
get into this wet suit? Mate.
Oh, that is going to be... Okay, yes.
I'm willing to help you. I can do the bottom. I think I can
do the bottom by myself. Thank God.
I'm going to leave my modesty
t-shirt on for a second. Oh, Jesus. Alright.
Oh, there's your undies that you got that you didn't want.
My colourful undies.
So I'll just... Hold on, I'll take a second. Oh, Jesus, alright. Oh, there's your undies that you got that you didn't want. My colourful undies, yeah.
Hold on, I'll take these off.
Alright, so wiggle your way down.
Okay, he's
got, no, one leg and now
he's working at the foot.
Mate, that's going to take an hour
to get into that. I don't even think I can get
my foot into it. No, you can.
So grab from there, yeah, and pull it up over your heel.
There you go.
And now pull.
Yes.
No, you're good.
You're good.
Are you meant to, and if you listen to this, if you do triathlons and stuff,
are you meant to like lube yourself up or anything first?
Maybe.
You meant to vest your body before you.
I think you're meant to actually wet yourself to put yourself in the wetsuit.
No, that would make it harder
I feel like I'm preparing well for Christmas
Because this is going to be like getting the ham
Inside the
It's like getting a chicken in an oven bag
You know
Alright pull that over your heel like you did
Oh god
Remember this is a borrowed wetsuit too So we can't rip it
Well I wasn't intending to rip it
Okay you're over
You've got your legs
You've got the shin part on
Okay now if you could just help me to
Okay I'm going to pull this over your buttocks
Okay three two one
There we go.
Is that on?
I think so.
Okay.
Oh, you look like a seal.
Okay, here we go.
Here we go.
Okay, hold on.
Wait, I'll pull from this end.
We're at the shoulders.
This must look so weird.
Okay, this side's coming over.
Are you weird?
Okay.
I think so.
I don't think it does that.
From here.
Yeah.
Oh, that's going to be a...
You look like you're in the Matrix.
What do we think?
Are we ready to race?
You know what you look like?
It looks like when Ace when um ace ventura came
out that rhino rhino's butthole looks like you're coming out the butthole i might wear the surfing
one yeah oh mate you're all about a friend's reunion right? Yeah You think they should do it
I'm still on the fence as to whether it would be any good
Or if it would just ruin it, you know?
Do you reckon that Joey would dye his hair for it?
Because he's so grey
Because he's so salt and pepper
Yeah, I think Matt LeBlanc is your bigger issue than Joey's hair
Jennifer Aniston has revealed
Do you mean, wait, did you mean Matthew Perry?
Yeah, what did I say?
You said Matt LeBlanc.
Oh, the other same guy.
Yeah.
Oh, classic Joey moment.
Classic.
Jennifer Aniston, who if I'm not mistaken plays Rachel,
has revealed why the reunion hasn't happened.
Yeah, why?
This might actually surprise you.
Have a listen to this.
This was on James Corden's show last night.
You said that you were quite open to the this was on um james corden's show last night you said
that you were quite open to the notion of getting the band back together the girls always say we
would love to do it again and the boys are a little less excited about it for some reason
we've decided that we'll just do like a remake of the golden girls in like 40 years so she's saying
that the only reason it's not happening because of of the boys. I know the reason. Why?
Because all the girls on that show have aged quite well.
And the guys.
Well, no, Joey's fine.
And Ross looks great.
David Schwimmer looks good.
Exactly.
Maybe it's just Matthew Perry.
So.
He's had a tough run. It hasn't been his day, his week, his month, or even his year.
We've all seen the meme.
What about if it meant we get a friend's reunion,
could we kill off Chandler?
No.
Well, if he's not willing to take part.
No, you need all of them.
Could he have, maybe he cheated on Monica and he's in exile.
He's in Monaco.
He's always some other country.
Maybe he got done for heaps of cocaine.
Oh, no, that's too close to the truth.
Well, he could act quite well.
Yeah, it would be method acting.
Method acting.
Do you think he's the one?
Do you think that's the one reason she just didn't want to lump him?
Well, if you look at all of them, he's probably aged the worst, unfortunately, for him.
But he's had a tough life, that guy.
Not in terms of, I mean, he's had a tough life in terms of with addiction.
Gotcha.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Has anything else happened to him?
Like, is there any sort of, like, is he, I don't know.
I haven't really followed much of his life.
Has he been married or anything?
Are you into the idea of the Golden Girls, though, where it's just Phoebe,
because that's what she's proposing
a version of the Golden Girls
in like 20 or 30 years
when they're in their 60s
and it's Phoebe,
Monica and Rachel
just sit around
doing old girl stuff.
As long as Betty White's in it
I mean she'll still be around.
Yeah.
What do you mean?
Well yeah.
Yeah no she will.
She'll be like 143.
She will live forever.
She will. Yeah absolutely. It'll be fine 143. She will live forever. She will.
Yeah, absolutely.
It'll be fine.
Either that or hologram technology will be so good
that you won't be able to tell the difference.
Perfect.
Or they could put Joey in a wig.
