ZM!
Let's go, go, go!
Now let me see you dance!
ZM's Brie and Clint.
Yahoo!
Kia ora, New Zealand.
Starting the show with a cha-ho.
You've been perfecting that, haven't you?
I've been working on it.
Do you want to give it one more go?
Just come back from the mic a little bit, but not too far.
Go on, yeah.
Yahoo!
Getting there.
Getting there.
Needs a little bit more work.
She's been a very food-orientated afternoon for the two of us.
Bree, in an unprecedented move.
I don't know that anyone's ever done this in a workplace before.
Disappears 15 minutes.
Comes back.
She's cooked three garlic breads.
I'm just trying to bring a bit of Christmas cheer to the office.
It's a boss move.
And how much is a loaf of garlic bread? Like $5? $5 for two or something? And then I gave Christmas cheer to the office. It's a boss move. And how much is a loaf of garlic bread?
Like $5?
Yeah.
Five bucks for two or something?
And then I gave that out around the office
and then I cooked three more garlic breads.
Also, I've just ordered some Uber Eats
just to keep us going this afternoon.
Honestly, we're shredding for summer like...
ASAP.
Yeah, soon.
In a couple of weeks or something.
I just ordered this Uber Eats.
The guy pulls up outside.
I go out to get it and he goes,
Oi, are you that guy off The Edge?
And I said to him, nah, I was, but I'm at ZM.
Like, you've literally just pulled up outside ZM.
And he goes, oh, true.
Did you give out the new frequency for him?
Yeah, yeah, he's all set.
I jumped in the car, retuned it for him.
So shout out to my Uber driver.
Thank you for the chaps.
Next, if you haven't...
My Uber driver's just always like,
are you that girl that ordered yesterday?
Hey, pasta girl.
Hey, I come here at least three times a week.
Are you ever going to invite me in for a cup of tea?
Next on the show, if you haven't heard the news
about how disgustingly dirty your phone is, get ready.
And you might want to avoid this, but don't.
I reckon you need to know.
It's a good wake-up call, I think.
Oh, it really is.
And maybe it'll change some of your habits as well.
We'll bring you the stats, the latest stats on how dirty the phone, probably in your hand, is.
Right now.
Right now.
After this.
Bree and Clint, ZM.
Another one. Bree and Clint, ZM. Another one.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
News out today about just how dirty your smartphone is.
And I don't think anyone's kidding themselves that they think it's the most sterile place in the world, right?
I know that it's a filth trap.
You just try not to think about it.
That is a cesspool of my life just living on the face of that phone.
It's everything you touch, isn't it?
Because straight away, basically...
Mate, I touch a lot of things.
Exactly.
These are the actual stats.
The average phone...
Was that meant to be a rude joke?
No.
Because if you want to start, you can tell us what you're touching.
It was a good Saturday night.
Okay, cool.
I'm just joking.
I'm not joking. You're doing this to yourself a good Saturday night. Okay, cool. I'm joking. I'm joking.
You're doing this to yourself, by the way.
The average smartphone is seven times dirtier than a toilet seat.
Seven times.
But people's bums sit on a toilet seat.
Exactly.
They've swabbed a whole bunch of phones and they've come out with some averages.
They put them under this light. And if a bright spot shows up, that shows living microbes on it.
Yuck.
The average toilet seat shows 220 living microbes.
That's not that much.
What do you know about microbes?
I don't know.
The average phone shows up 1,479 living microbes.
Oh, my God.
They say it's because your phone does everything with you.
So if you pick up dog poo, I mean, hopefully you use a bag or something.
I was going to say, who is picking up dog poo with their hands?
Maybe you flick it into the bag with your phone.
What are you doing on the weekends, mate?
No, but okay, people who take their phone to the bag with your phone. What are you doing on the weekends, mate? No, but okay.
People who take their phone to the toilet with them.
You're doing your business and you're scrolling.
That's the thing.
I mean, probably don't check your notifications between wipes.
But either way, it's in there.
Either way, it's in the room with you.
You know what's gross is that when you think about it, you wash your hands after you go to the toilet
or hopefully you wash your hands.
Yes.
But your phone doesn't get washed.
Do you ever wash your phone?
No.
No, me either.
No, don't worry.
I don't either.
The stat gets worse for people who have a leather case on their phone.
Oh, this is not me.
No.
And I always think this when I see someone with a leather case.
It's always the fanciest people with leather cases too.
And it's the flip leather case. Oh, the wallet oneciest people with leather cases too. And the flip leather case.
Oh, the wallet one?
Oh, you know they're cool when they've got that.
The worst reading they got was off a smartphone
that was in a leather case that had the wallet bit in it
so you could slot your cards into it.
That one had 17 times the amount of bacteria
as the average toilet seat.
And what was the other one?
Seven.
Oh my god.
I've got
an idea and you're not
going to like it. Just because this is what
we do. This is what we do with
radio and stuff. What are you doing? We read
out a stat and then we have to put it into real life
practice. No.
You're not touching my phone.
One of us
licks the other person's phone.
Just for like...
I'm nearly sick thinking about it.
For the video.
Because like it'll be...
People will tag people in and they'll go,
oh my God, I can't believe they did this.
Disgusting.
I don't know who's going to do it,
but I'll flip this coin.
Why?
Because that's what we do.
That's how this thing works. I'll just flip it. I've got anxiety. And you can call it, but I'll flip this coin. Why? Because that's what we do. That's how this thing works.
I'll just flip it. I've got anxiety.
And you can call it, okay? You can call it.
Okay. Heads or tails?
Tails. Tails?
Tails. Okay.
Oh, it's heads. It's heads.
It's tails. Yes, it is!
Here's my
phone. Oh, why did
I come up with this idea? Here's my phone. Why did I come up with this idea?
Here's my phone.
Why did I come up with this idea?
Definitely hasn't been washed since the weekend.
And you know where we were on the weekend, Cliff.
Won't talk about it, but you know where we were.
I'm about to lick it.
You've got a notification from your mum.
Can you cut me down?
Okay.
Oh, no.
No, let's do it.
This is such a dumb idea. I thought there's no way I'm going to lose this.
This is a great idea.
Let's have a drum roll.
Okay.
Drum roll, please.
Clinton Roberts licking the front of my iPhone.
Go.
I threw it at you.
I'm really sorry.
What does it taste like?
Actually, it doesn't really taste like anything,
but it was quite grippy on my tongue,
so it does make me worry about it a little bit.
Okay.
Do you want to ask our question?
Do we still want to do that or just...
I can't believe you just did that.
Ew.
Now my phone's probably like 28 times dirtier
than the normal toilet seat.
Hey, my tongue is not dirtier than a toilet seat, okay?
Can you take your phone to the toilet?
0800 dial ZM.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
The average phone has seven times
the amount of bacteria living
microbes than a toilet seat does.
Not surprising. That's new data
that's just come out.
I love this on the text machine.
Someone's texted in, currently
listening to you guys in the toilet on the app.
Not sure about germs, but it certainly smells bad in here.
So that's what they reckon the problem is,
that it goes everywhere, including the toilet.
So we're just conducting a quick snap poll,
and this requires honesty on 0800DALZM.
Which I think it's going to be 100%.
Do you take your phone to the toilet?
It's boring in there without a phone.
I'll come out and say it.
It goes in with me.
I love to sit on the can and just have a scroll.
Vaughn told me once that he takes his laptop to the toilet.
Oh.
How long are you in there for?
He's putting together a PowerPoint presentation or something.
He knows that the phone does the same thing as a laptop, right?
This might have been pre-smartphones.
He's like, I like to really take my time,
watch the Lord of the Rings.
So I've admitted to it.
Lord of the Rings.
It's because he was sitting...
Yeah, yeah.
Eye of Mordor.
Do you take your phone to the toilet?
Of course.
Let's go to the phones.
Ronan, welcome to the show.
Hey, I take mine to the toilet, but the thing is,
I wash mine every week with, like, diddler wipes
because I've heard this before.
But do you think that's enough, Ronan?
I kind of want to do it every day.
Yeah.
No, it doesn't make you want to do it every day, right?
Every hour.
Okay.
Cool.
Well, you're doing something, I guess.
Adam, do you take your
phone to the toilet with you?
Yeah, I take my phone to the toilet with me
so I can keep an eye on my brothers and
sisters.
I like to always know
that they're safe. What do you mean?
Why does taking your phone to the toilet
let you do that?
Because I can even message
them while I'm sitting on the toilet. Right.
What about if it's a number one for you, Adam? Do you wee with one hand? Yeah, and do a slam
dunk with the other. All right, Adam. Good to talk to you, man. Aidan, how are you? Good,
thanks, man. You don't take your phone to the toilet, right?
No, I don't
What's your alternative?
Mate, a magazine
You're taking a magazine
Okay, I know what type of magazine
No, no, no, I don't think you do
You've written here books or magazines, right?
Yeah, books or magazines
I reckon if they did a test on those things
Yeah, Playboy comes in hardback.
These are all dudes as well
by the way. Producer Ellie
from a girl's perspective, do you take
it in with you?
Every time. I look forward to it every morning when I get up.
It's great. Time for a poo and time for a scroll.
And you know what's good about being
a girl and taking your phone?
It's 100% of the time you're sitting
you're relaxing and you're on your phone. Exactly. Whereas you guys, I's 100% of the time you're sitting, you're relaxing and
you're on your phone.
Exactly.
Whereas you guys, I mean, here's a question for you, Clint.
Yeah.
Do you sometimes choose to sit while doing number ones so you're going to have the scroll?
Don't lie.
Producer Ben's shaking his head.
Not for you, Producer Ben.
No, me neither then.
No.
No.
Bree and Clint on Zit Im. Let's try out a new game. Bree and Clint's Slingshot Summer Shout. Producer Ben? No, me neither then. No. No.
Let's try out a new game.
This Friday, we will be down in Auckland's Victoria Park shooting a giant slingshot at prizes.
And when we say that, we're not joking.
It's like a six-foot slingshot
where we're going to be firing it at prizes.
It's like real-life Angry Birds. Legit. You'll be on the slingshot where we're going to be firing it at prizes. It's like real life Angry Birds.
Legit.
You'll be on the slingshot.
I'll be in the field directing your aim towards the prizes.
Don't hit me.
Okay.
But we'll definitely do one where you have to try and catch it.
It's all with the slingshot summer shout.
You can win prizes through them and with us,
with this competition.
How this is going to work is you need to do a bit of a tongue twister
with someone you've never met before. A complete stranger and you have to work together to get the phrase out,
to get a spot this Friday. If you get it out, you have a spot. We will be firing for you and you are
guaranteed a prize. We're going to do a quick demo for you, okay? You and I, Bree. So the phrase is
slingshot summer shout. You go word for word, You say one word each and you have five seconds to do it.
So it should sound something like this.
Sling.
Shot.
Summer.
Shout.
There you go.
That's it.
Out within five seconds.
It sounds easy.
If you both say sling, you're out.
If neither of you say anything within five seconds, you're out.
Okay.
Do you understand how the game works? Hannah? Yeah.
Hi. Hi Hannah, come on.
You're going to be partnering up with Shanice.
Hi Shanice. Hi.
I'm going to start the timer for you guys.
We can't discuss who's going to go first.
You can't talk to each other first.
So someone is going to have to take the leap
and you're going to have to hope the other person
doesn't.
Best of luck.
Here we go.
Fling.
Shot.
Shout.
Oh!
We're going to need to go back to the... This is such a weird game.
It is.
Yeah, it's a bit of a weird game, isn't it?
I don't know.
Judges?
We need to go to the referee. It's no good. Sorry, guys. Yeah, that's a bit of a weird game, isn't it? I don't know. Judges?
We need to go to the referee.
It's no good.
Sorry, guys.
We're going to have to go on to somebody else.
Welcome to the show, Hayden.
G'day.
You've had an example of how it doesn't work.
We're pairing you up with Ronan, okay?
Do you guys think you're going to have better luck?
Yeah, I think we'll do all right.
All right, guys.
It needs to be clear and it needs to be word for word.
Sling.
Shot.
Summer.
Shout. Here we go. Good luck. Sling. Shot. Summer. Shout.
Here we go.
Good luck.
Sling.
Shot.
Summer.
Shout.
That's it.
Shout, shout, shout.
Guys, this Friday,
Bree will be shooting a giant slingshot for you. We're aiming for Weber Barbecues for Fitbit
for 12 months of unlimited slingshot broadband.
Okay, well done.
Cheers, guys.
That was exciting.
It's tough, right?
We got through the first one.
It's going to become clearer, but still,
you're still waiting on that other person to make it work.
It's all thanks to Slingshot.
You can join Slingshot broadband on selected plans
and choose a summer gift of your choice.
If you bundle up with power, then it gets even better.
To be honest, I just signed up for this because of the giant slingshot.
Oh, yeah.
It's going to be epic.
It's going to be great.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
Don't know if you know this, Clint, but last night made my New Zealand television debut.
Well done.
Congratulations.
It was a big moment.
Mm-hmm.
Quite a big show, too.
A massive show.
It was Police 10-7, and you were being arrested for trying to break into a sales pizza.
That wouldn't surprise me.
But no, it wasn't that.
I was on the TV show MKR.
My Ketchum Rules. Pretty
exciting. The semi-final, can I say,
the second semi-final episode.
I'm pretty sure the finale's this week.
It's on TVNZ2.
Made my appearance last night as one of
the guests at the table. It was a very interesting experience, can I say
It was filmed a while ago
And Manu's so attractive in real life
Oh, you rate Manu?
Yep
I think I rate his personality
What about Paleo Pete?
Do you like a bit of Paleo Pete?
Eh, he's alright
Okay
But Manu's got the bants
Is it the accent with Manu?
He's got the banter.
Yeah, okay.
And I do love a bit of banter.
I had literally for the whole episode, I think it went for an hour,
I made literally probably a 10-second appearance.
We've got a bit of you here.
It's a 24-second clip.
Okay.
And you're not until the end of it.
Right.
This is the only bit of me that made the cut last night on MKR.
Jackie nailed the duck breast.
It was beautiful. They didn't have the crispy
skin so maybe that's what they're going to
try and work on. It could go one or two ways.
My dad actually turned me off
duck when I was younger with a saying that
he used to say a lot which was I could eat the
crutch out of a low flying duck and that always turned me off. I don't know why.
I really love this table, by the way.
That's what you got in there. Some duck crutch nibbling chat.
I think I was a little bit steamed.
The behind-the-scenes stuff that you didn't see, though.
Yeah, I'm sure you see more and it just got edited out, right?
Mate, there was some stuff that couldn't be put on television.
Sure.
But there was some stuff that was off-camera
that was really awkward that day for me.
So I didn't really know anyone except for Georgia
who was there with me from the Snapchat.
Yeah.
And then there was a lot of other radio people there.
The guys from Booja were there. And then also
the breakfast show from Coast
was there. Oh,
Jason Reeves and Bernadine
Oliver Kirby. Yeah, so they
were sitting across the table from us. You might
know Bernadine from this. Good morning,
I'm Bernadine Oliver-Kirby.
It's six o'clock.
Yeah.
As well as a Breakfast Radio host,
also one of the country's most famous newsreaders.
Yeah, super famous, so attractive.
Okay.
Really good looking in real life, can I say?
Yeah, I feel like you're over complimenting her
because you're building up to something bad that you've done.
Maybe a little bit.
There was one point where we were taking a break from filming
and Georgia from Snapchat and Bernadine were having this chat
where they were talking about how much they love desserts
and they were obsessed with desserts and then Bernadine made a comment
and she was like, oh, if I was on a date, I would just eat dessert.
And then Georgia from Snapchat was like, me too. That's all I would
eat. I wouldn't eat anything else. Just bring on the desserts. And I don't know why, but this is
the first time that I'd met Bernadine. And I pipe in with a comment. Oh, you guys should kiss. What? What?
I've never been shot a bigger death stare from across a table.
Why should they kiss?
Because they both like dessert.
No, because they were going on about how good, like they could go on a date. Yeah, and then you're making these, also now you're making these weird compliments about how attractive she is.
What is wrong with you?
Mate, it's, I don't know.
I panicked.
There was lots of cameras around.
Is that why Bernadine wouldn't talk to us at the Christmas party?
She won't come near me now.
She thinks I'm like a predator.
I don't know.
I think she hates me.
Cool.
Well, I'm looking forward to not being invited back for season two
of My Kitchen Rules.
You can actually see in one part of the episode how the energy has changed. Yeah. Cool. Well, I'm looking forward to not being invited back for season two of My Kitchen Rules.
You can actually see in one part of the episode how the energy has changed.
Yeah. Was that before or after your duck crutch nibbling?
I think it was after.
Hey, well done, mate. Good exposure for the show. Congratulations.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
Let's do a birthday banger.
It's my birthday. It's my birthday.
Brie and Clint's birthday banger. Right, this is where we figure out what song was actually number one on your 16th birthdays.
First person up is Julie.
Hi, Julie.
Hello.
Hey, Jules.
What's your birthday? Hi.
I'm 12th of October, 1971.
Right.
No, we don't have that one.
Hang on. Hang on. Hang on, Julie. Hang on, Julie.'t have that one.
Hang on. Hang on, Julie.
Come on, guys.
That's all right.
We're going to pop you on hold.
We're going to come back.
Hold on, Julie.
Hold on there.
Okay.
Wait there.
Were we meant to go to Julie?
No.
Did I make a mistake there?
Well, let's go back to Julie real quick.
Hey, Julie.
Yes?
We're going to have to talk to you tomorrow.
Why?
Because we're not...
I pushed the wrong one, Julie. Can we get your number and we'll call you back for birthday banger tomorrow. Why? Because we're not, I pushed the wrong one, Julie.
Can we get your number
and we'll call you back
for birthday banger tomorrow, okay?
I'm too old, aren't I?
No, no, no.
No, you're not.
I promise.
Mum's on call.
Someone in the background,
my mum's old.
That's no dinner for you, boy.
Julie.
You be nice to your mum.
Julie, you'll be back
for birthday banger tomorrow, okay?
That's a brilliant promise.
Alrighty. This is my fault. That's a brilliant promise. All righty.
This is my fault.
That promise to you, Jules.
All right.
Let's go to...
Ange.
Ange.
Okay, hi, Ange.
Hi, Ange.
Hi, how are you going?
Good.
What's your birthday, Ange?
10th of April, 1973.
Okay, Ange, you were 16 in 1989 on the 10th of April.
And on that day back in the 80s, this was number one.
And you get the fine young cannibals, She Drives Me Crazy.
Yay.
Yay?
I like it.
Yeah, cool.
Okay, sweet.
Wait there.
Let's go to another one.
Hi, Renita.
Hello.
Hello.
Renita, what's your birthday?
14th of March, 1992. Okay, Renita, you were your birthday? 14th of March, 1992.
Okay, Renita, you were 16 in 2008 on the 14th of March,
and on that day, this was number one.
Flo Rida.
Low.
How do you feel about that?
Amazing.
Amazing, right?
I put my back out to that song.
The good thing about this is it'll still come on at the clubs too,
and you can turn to everyone and go,
this is my birthday banger.
Boys.
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
For the rest of your life.
Did you really put your back out to that song?
That's no joke.
I always would lean down and go, boots with the fur,
and then one time I didn't come back up.
Too low.
And now we've lost our last person.
That's okay.
I've got her details.
It was Danielle, and her birthday was on the 11th of December, so coming up
in 1989. So she was 16
in 2005 on the 11th
of December and this is her birthday
back.
Do you know who this is? The Pussycat
Dolls. Yeah, Pussycat Dolls. It's called Stick
With You.
What was your favourite Pussycat Dolls song? The oneussycat Dolls. It's called Stick With You. What was your favourite Pussycat Dolls song?
The one with Busta Rhymes on the...
Because she's in your inner.
Yeah, the one with Busta Rhymes.
Beep.
No, that was Snoop Dogg, wasn't it?
Oh, that was Snoop Dogg.
I don't know.
There were so many bangers.
What are we going to play for birthday banger today?
The song you put your back out to?
It's got to be low.
It's got to be low, right?
Yeah.
Okay, that means, Renita, we're playing your birthday banger. Excellent. low. It's got to be low, right? Yeah. Okay, that means Renita,
we're playing your birthday banger.
Excellent.
Take care when bending down
to this song, Renita, okay?
I will.
It gets harder and harder
to drop it to
as you get older.
Yeah, it gets higher and higher,
not lower and lower
as you get older.
Bree and Clint,
ZM.
ZM, Bree and Clint, It's Flo Rida and Low
This is the best Pussycat Dolls song by the way
That was their first one
This is their first one yeah
No way
Beep was better than this
Beep's better than this
Beep was better than this
Beep's not better than this
Yeah it was like
Stop
That song was weird.
Stop looking at my beep.
Yeah.
And then you put in there whatever you want to.
True.
I dislocated my thumb to that song too, actually.
No, you did not.
No, I did.
On a garden chair.
That's a legit story.
I put my hand...
You know those green plastic chairs or white plastic chairs?
And I put my thumb through like one of the holes
and I went to throw the chair out
like Nicole Scherzinger does in the film clip
and my thumb just got stuck.
Went with the chair.
I'm being serious.
I'm just giving you time to think about what you're saying.
Seriously.
Brie.
I've come a long way since then.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
The most wonderful time of the year
It's Christmas party season
How fun are Christmas parties?
How fun is Christmas in general?
And yes, how much fun is it
Partying with your workmates?
That group of people who
A lot of the time
You probably wouldn't normally go out with
You let your hair down
And you say things you probably shouldn't
To Gary from sales Here at ZM We are all friends And we would normally go out with. You let your hair down and you say things you probably shouldn't to Gary from sales.
Here at ZM, we are all friends
and we would normally go out together.
So that's what makes this story that
much more awkward. On the
weekend, we had our ZM Christmas party
and we went to a mini golf place.
It's called Holy Moly.
It's a bar
cum mini golf place, right? It's awesome.
At the beginning of this session,
Ross Boss says to us,
all right, guys, Merry Christmas.
This is the party.
We're playing for two days of annual leave.
The winner of mini golf,
everybody keep your scores,
and at the end of this,
the winner is going to win for themselves
two days of annual leave.
My eyes lit up.
Now, this is...
Because for me, Clinton,
I'm a competitor.
That's it.
It's not that you need the annual leave.
It's just that anytime anything becomes competitive, this wash comes over you.
It's like this red mist just comes over you. You know a bull when they hold a red cape in front of it?
I'm the bull.
The team playing mini golf directly ahead of you uh comprised of two
other zm employees employees carwin and clara who are with us in the studio now hi guys
lovely girls yeah we're all good mates here at zm i talked to clara and carwin on the reg
i'm always like morning can you can you guys tell us what your experience with Bree
at the mini golf course was like?
What happened to you?
You know, just hitting a few golf balls
and we always hear, cheetah, cheetah.
Yeah, actually, yeah, that's a great impression.
Right in my ear, actually,
I took the full brunt of the yelling.
Aggressive.
Just about like a personal attack.
You had Bree screaming at you, accusing you of being a cheater.
She then, from what I know, went to the boss, reported you,
and said, just so you know when their scorecards come in.
I didn't do that.
You did.
I didn't know Trin, who was also on the team,
she went and outed herself.
Well, only because you made her feel so bad about it.
I had to take you aside and have a word to you and say,
look, mate, it's just a Christmas party.
Everybody here is trying to have a bit of fun
and you're turning it into somewhat of a bloodbath.
What do you have to say for yourself?
I was just standing up for
justice. We weren't
cheating. No. Oh!
Wait a minute.
See, I love
how one is on one
side of the fence. No, we weren't cheating.
Come on. Regardless of whether
they were cheating or not, do you think
it's okay to go and shout at people
at the Christmas party?
No.
And did I apologise very soon after?
Yes.
We did get the first apology from Clint, I must say.
But how many times did I apologise?
Throughout the entire night?
Oh, you did?
Because I was going to see now,
because I haven't heard you apologise,
I was going to ask,
do you want to offer these guys some words
of condolence for the whole country to hear?
I am very sorry to you, Carwen, and you, Clara,
for raising my voice after you cheated at the Christmas party.
See, you still can't let it go, can you?
I'm just saying I...
You can't let it go.
I'm just saying, yes, I was in the wrong.
Shouldn't have yelled.
No one deserved that.
Did you cheat?
Yes, you did.
We were playing.
It was a competition.
I'm not going to get angry.
You still...
It just feels like somewhat of a half-hearted...
Can we just say what they were doing?
Yeah, go on.
Just so people know the whole story.
Yeah.
So at the mini golf, they would put the ball and they would start their shot.
And if they shot it and it bounced back and off of the whole course,
they would then put it back on and they wouldn't count that as one shot.
Yeah, but who cares?
Seriously, it's the Christmas party.
Who cares?
I was playing for days off, mate.
I can't.
And guess what? I came second, which means I get
a day off. And do you feel good about it?
No, I don't feel good about yelling at them, but
I feel, well, it's ruined it now, hasn't it?
I just want to ask this afternoon
on 0800DALZM. Oh, great.
Does it matter? Like, if someone
in that situation at the Christmas
party, and it's mini golf. Would you care? Would you care? Like if someone is, if someone in that situation at the Christmas party and it's mini golf.
Would you care?
Would you care?
Like whose side would you be on?
Me?
I was like, just let it go.
Who really, what does it really matter?
Don't worry about it.
Just enjoy yourself.
The results don't matter.
You on the other hand,
you could not let it go.
That's not true.
That is not true.
Because I let it go pretty soon after I apologized to them.
Really?
How many times was I sincereised to them. Really? How many times?
Was I sincere, girls?
Yeah.
Okay.
Let's just get a bit of perspective this afternoon, okay?
0800 dial ZM.
Does it matter?
Would you have done this?
Would you have yelled at people in the middle of a Christmas party?
I yelled a little bit.
Over a game of mini golf.
Maybe I'm wrong, okay?
Maybe it's me who's in the wrong.
Let's just see what we get.
Mate, I know I'm a dick.
I already know that I am.
We'll test it.
This is Halsey.
Cheating is cheating, though.
It is.
I'm sorry, I can't.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
Brie yelled at people at the Christmas party
because she believed they were cheating at mini golf.
Is that a fair summation?
Yes, but there was a prize on the line.
It was annual leave, days off.
So there was big stakes.
Yeah.
Shouldn't have yelled.
Shouldn't have yelled.
And you're aware of that now.
And I regret it a lot.
And I apologise to Carwin and Clara a lot.
And I took them lots of drinks.
I was like their personal servant.
I felt so bad.
But I also would do it again.
This is the point that we're getting to.
So this afternoon on $800 Eating, we've asked the question,
if you perceive someone to be cheating, which you did,
and there's actually grey area around whether the girls were cheating or not.
So should we mention what that was?
Yeah, all right.
So they would start their hole in mini golf,
and then if it bounced off a thing and went off the track, they would put it back on
and then start from zero again,
which I believe that is one shot.
I allowed my teammates to discount those shots.
Yeah, well, you're a cheater too.
So now we're asking people, just to give you a little bit of
perspective on 0800 dials idiom,
does it matter? Okay? Lisa,
does it matter?
Oh, sorry, Lisa, are you there?
Surprise on the end of it. Sorry, Lisa, one more time. Does it matter? Oh, sorry, Lisa, are you there? There was a prize on the end of it.
Sorry, Lisa, one more time.
Does it matter?
100% matters.
Yes, Lisa.
I'm going to say put a prize on the end.
There was a prize to be won.
It matters.
But don't you think that it's a Christmas party
and everyone's just there to have fun?
Yeah, but there's one prize to rule all.
Okay, all right.
Lisa, we can't play putt-putt together,
you and I, I don't think. You and Bree should hang out.
Hey, Raewyn. Hi, how are you?
Good. Raewyn, does it matter? In the spirit
of Christmas, does it matter?
You're not going to like me, Clint. Free, I agree
with you totally. Yes, Raewyn!
I had a mini golf thing
for work and people were cheating and I called them
out as well. Raewyn, what...
They weren't being malicious though.
And you've got to understand that these girls, it wasn't like they were blazing ahead in
the competition.
They weren't playing for first and second place.
They were just middling along, trying to get a score that wasn't too embarrassing.
They could have been on top, Raven.
They have won and you don't want them to win if they're cheating.
Matt, from a man's perspective, does it matter?
Of course it does.
Not only do they deserve an earful, they deserve to be disqualified.
Well, you know what, Matt?
Sometimes I was lenient on the day and I thought a good serve,
that's all they needed.
Let me give it to them.
No, all right, Matt.
Matt, it's Christmas, all right?
Where's your Christmas spirit? Amber, in the spirit, I feel like I'm on give it to them. No, all right, Matt. Matt, it's Christmas, all right? Where's your Christmas spirit?
Amber, in the spirit...
I really feel like I'm on a hiding to nothing here.
Amber, in the spirit of Christmas,
people who were just playing mini golf
and you've got to remember, no one's paid it either.
No one paid any money for this.
That's true.
Does it matter?
Oh, it totally does.
Would you have done the same thing, Amber?
I have done the same thing.
Not over a Christmas thing, but earlier in the year we had our own work competition
and one of my teammates helped another team win.
And if he didn't do that, we would have won and I lost my nut at him.
Not cool.
Competition is all on.
Next time, call me up up I'll be straight down there
I think we're finding
That it's not alcohol
That ruins Christmas parties
It might be competition
Another Lisa
Welcome to the show
Does it matter
In your opinion
If someone maybe
Is fudging the rules
Of something as simple
As mini golf
No I agree with Bree
Sorry can't
I love our listeners
Can I say
I love you
It's you know
It's all well and good Saying say it's a Christmas party,
but they cheated.
This is the thing, though, Lisa.
Can I say, the phone lines are going off.
They didn't change their score.
Just if the ball went off the course on the first shot.
Technically, that's changing their score.
That's still the game of golf.
Mini golf or any golf.
Doesn't work like that, Clint.
I love it.
They cheated.
Maybe, maybe.
Should I yell at them again now?
No, probably not.
I think maybe they've learnt their lesson.
They did.
They did.
And I will say, I feel like they didn't cheat on purpose.
It was an accident.
See, every time you say something like that,
it's loaded with something else.
It's like there's a but in the middle of it.
There's a texter on the text machine saying,
the question really is, Clint,
in the spirit of Christmas, why cheat?
Well, there you go.
Oh, hang on.
No.
Right.
We lost girls, Clara and Carwen.
I still do stand by my apology.
No, no.
Would you like to take your apology back?
Huh? Would you want to take your apology back now that you've been... No, I do stand by my apology. No, no, would you like to take your apology back? Huh?
Would you want to take your apology back now that you've been...
No, I do still agree with you.
I shouldn't have yelled,
but I would call you out again for cheating.
Brie and Clint on Zit Im.
You know, there's two different types of people around Christmas time.
There's the people who are super organised
and they've got their presents all done and dusted,
wrapped weeks in advance, and then you've got people presents all done and dusted, wrapped, weeks in advance
and then you've got people
that do it the day before.
Me?
Me.
Yeah, good.
That's why you and I are friends.
Exactly.
Are the shops open till midnight?
Yeah, they are here.
The day before?
Yeah.
Yeah, it's so good.
Fun Christmas story.
I went to do my midnight shopping
on Christmas Eve one year
and my car got stolen.
No way. Merry Christmas. Yeah, yeah my car got stolen. No way.
Merry Christmas.
Yeah, yeah.
Late night shopping.
That's actually probably pretty common because they like target it
because they know, yeah.
That's a horrible thing to target, eh,
because you know it's got gifts inside it.
That's horrible.
That's terrible.
Mine didn't.
It just had a wallet full of burnt CDs inside it.
Oh, that's even more devastating.
It was even more devastating because I had to download
all those, I mean, legally
download all those albums.
Buy them off iTunes. Using
dial-up internet.
Livewire. I mean, what?
Anyway, I've got
a list here which I think
might help some people out. If you're looking for
presents for people, this is the
top list of tech products
that are on the market this year for Christmas.
I'm so into this.
So these are the technology things
that people are buying this year.
Are they all really expensive though?
Because I went and looked at what the new iPhones cost at the moment.
You're talking like two grand for an iPhone.
Not everything's that much.
But let's just say this is probably going to be for the closer people in your life.
Sure.
Okay.
So something that's super popular at the moment, and you can relate to this, you've just installed
one, an electric lock and key.
Oh, can I just say life changing.
Very cool.
Yeah.
I just put one in at my house.
So it's like a keypad that you install on your door and then you can control that from your iPhone.
Yes.
Brilliant.
And it's so good.
Because, like how we went out for our Christmas party,
didn't have to take any keys to town.
Great gift.
And then people say, what if you lose your phone?
Well, you've then got a code that you can get into the house with.
I can personally say, great gift idea.
It's great.
Have you heard of Nanoleafs?
No.
So Nanoleafs are these light pads where you can stick on walls,
you can put on a table, you can do anything with them,
and they light up.
Right.
So anywhere you need a bit of extra light,
so maybe it's in the garage, maybe it's somewhere else,
they're super popular.
Are they battery powered?
They come with both, I think.
Yeah, but they're super expensive.
So a light.
So essentially it's a light that you can stick anywhere.
Now I'll take or leave that one.
Not too into that?
No.
Making a massive resurgence is the Fitbit, but the new Fitbit.
Yeah.
You've seen Dani here at work.
Yeah.
She's, I was about to say vajazzled,
that's not the word.
Bidazzled.
She could be.
I always get vajazzled
and bidazzled confused,
which I shouldn't
because they're
very different things.
She's bidazzled
her Fitbit.
Right.
She's got like a gold case for it.
It looks cool.
Does it?
Yeah.
So this is the new one
that they reckon
is the most popular
is the Fitbit
Alter Fitness Tracker.
Do you think a Fitbit would make you fitter?
No.
I think it would probably just make me feel bad.
It would make you feel more guilty about how much you sit down.
Yeah.
What about the Echo of the Future?
So this is the new Echo Show, second generation.
So it's like Alexa, which is the home automated system.
Yeah.
But this one has a screen.
Oh.
So it shows you things on the screen.
Yeah.
As you ask it stuff.
So that's a super popular.
Alexa and I had a rocky relationship.
Yeah.
I was excited to get her and then she didn't understand a lot of the things I was saying
and so I grew to hate her and I shut her in a cupboard.
We're back together.
You're back together.
Yeah.
You worked it out.
I'm quite fond of her now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So there you go.
Yeah.
Cool.
So that's the screened version of Alexa.
This one is probably my favourite and the cheapest one on the list, can I say?
Yeah.
Super cool.
I should have been asking you how much these things cost along the way, but yeah.
This one's awesome.
Yeah.
The leather tassel lightning charging cable.
So let me explain to you what it is.
Essentially, have you seen the key rings that look like a little leather tassel?
Yeah.
So it's one of those, but inside of it, in amongst all of that,
so it looks like a normal key ring, but it's
actually got a charging cord in it.
Oh. So anywhere,
anytime, if you've got your keys,
you've also got a charging cable.
Hidden inside it. Brilliant. Does it have
battery power as well? Like, does it
charge itself? I don't think so. Okay. But, I mean, battery power as well? Like, does it charge itself?
I don't think so.
Okay.
But, I mean, if you've got a laptop, you've got a charger.
Do you think I can pull off a leather tassel?
Do you think I could just clip it onto my bag? Maybe not the pink one.
Or onto my belt?
Yeah, maybe think that through.
The last one that I've got for you, good tech products for Christmas presents,
is the Furbo Wi-Fi dog cam.
Is that a camera?
So essentially it's like a little robot where you can actually talk to your pet from work
and the pet can talk to you.
Oh, you can actually talk to each other on it?
Yes, so it's got a two-way mic and also you can load it up with treats
and give a treat out to the pet.
No way.
Yeah.
Isn't that cool?
Yeah, that is good.
I'd like that for the cats.
Except every time I check in, I'd be like, oh, they're asleep.
Oh, I wonder what the cats are up to.
I wonder if they're playing with each other.
Oh, they're asleep.
No.
And every time you call the cat over, it just does it.
Just ignores me.
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
Thanks.
There you go.
Merry Christmas, everybody.
Which one of those are you going to get me? The tassel. Yeah. Okay, cool. Thanks. There you go. Merry Christmas, everybody. Which one of those are you going to get me?
The tassel. Yeah.
Or a vape, because you asked me
for a vape. No, I never... Can you drop the
vape thing?
Bree and Clint on ZM.
Bree's mum, I don't like you, and she likes everyone.
Pretty simple game.
We take my mum, one of the nicest people
on the planet, and we put her in a situation
where she has to tell someone she's never met
she doesn't like him.
You looking forward to this week's game, Mumma Di?
Oh, well, Clint, you know what I'm like.
I mean, jeez, come on.
It's getting close to Christmas.
I reckon ZM have to come good with the party.
Give everyone a present.
Oh, oh, I see what you're saying.
Well, that may happen next week, but this week, as per usual,
there is only one mobile fuel voucher available and two people, Mama Di.
Okay.
Whereabouts are you, Mum?
I'm out Christmas shopping.
I'm actually driving.
Where?
Can you pull over?
Because it's real hard to hear you.
Yeah, I'm trying to, Rana.
I'm just here.
Wait a minute.
I'm going up this side street.
I'm just near where you used to live in Brisbane.
I wish you were here.
Yeah, good old Brisbane.
What's the weather like there, Mum?
Let's bring on this week's contestants, shall we?
Hi, Scott.
Hello.
Hello, Scotty. Have you heard this game before, Scott? Hi, Scott. Hello. Hello, Scotty.
Have you heard this game before, Scott?
No, I haven't.
Oh, no.
Look out.
Mumadai's going to ask you one question to determine whether she likes you or not.
Are you ready, Mumadai?
No, I'm not single.
Yeah, I'm ready.
Hi, Scotty.
Hello.
Mum.
I hope you're ready, mate.
I'm always ready. Here we go, Mum. Ask him the question. Oh. Mum. I hope you're ready, mate. I'm always ready.
Here we go, Mum.
Ask him the question.
What's the best Christmas song?
Ooh.
I don't know many, to be honest.
I'll just have to go with the classic Mariah Carey.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, that's an awesome song.
I had it raging at my place the other day.
If you know Mama Di and you know this show,
she does like that song,
but there's one Christmas album for her.
It'd be unfair to give it away to Willie.
Yes.
Hi, Willie.
G'day, how you going?
You're on with Mama Di. Is it the same question for Willie, Mama Di? away to Willie. Yes. Hi, Willie. G'day, how you going? You're on with Mumma Di.
Is it the same question
for Willie, Mumma Di?
Yes.
Willie,
what's your best Christmas song?
My best Christmas song?
Anything from Michael Bublé
or Snoopy's Christmas.
Ooh.
Oh.
Now, neither of those boys
got a smack bang on the head,
did they, Mumma Di?
Oh, I tell you what,
that Michael Bublé is a stud muffin from way back.
Yeah, you're absolutely right.
We need to give you,
and like we said,
we've been given strict time restraints on this.
We're about to give you 15 seconds to decide
which of those boys you don't like.
So Scotty said Mariah Carey.
Willie said Bublé.
Do I really have to?
These two guys sound like lovely guys.
Come on.
No mucking around this week, Mum.
You need to say, Willie, I don't like you.
Or Scott, I don't like you.
Scotty, I have to say I don't like you, but I actually do. Oh, she doesn't like you. Scotty, I have to say, I don't like you, but I actually do.
Oh, she doesn't like you.
I thought we had a connection.
I'm so sorry.
I'll have to go and buy myself something now.
You don't have to buy Scott anything because we're sending him some mobile fuel, all right?
Well done, Scott.
Merry Christmas, mate.
Thank you.
All right.
Brie and Clint.
He was hoping for a date.
Zit-in.
Brie and Clint on Zit-in.
Tis the season.
And did you hear Fletch Vaughan and Megan having this conversation this morning about Advent calendars?
Oh, which direction you eat them in.
It was really kind of 50-50.
Do you eat it 1 to 25 or do you eat it backwards 25 to 1?
It's not 50-50 to me.
When you start eating it, you start eating on the 1st of December.
It's the 1st.
And you eat number 1.
And you eat all the way to 25, which is Christmas Day.
Because usually in an advent calendar, isn't 25 like a bigger...
It's Christmas Day.
It's like a bigger prize?
In the more expensive ones it is, yeah.
And the rest of them is just that weird chocolate that's a little bit white
because it's not actually been like, it's not airtight in there.
Last year I bought my first advent calendar ever.
Oh yeah.
From Kmart.
Never gotten one before.
And I became addicted to the chocolate.
Oh really?
I ended up eating the whole thing in one day
and then I went back and bought three more. I've never had good advent calendar chocolate. That's the thing I ended up eating the whole thing in one day and then I went back and bought
three more. I've never had good advent calendar chocolate. That's the thing. It was so good.
That kind of weird, cheap tasting chocolate. Ones from Kmart are good. Okay. That's good to know.
And I guess, you know, like chocolate is the classic advent calendar delicacy. But what about
some other things? And I feel like some other advent calendars are becoming
more prominent now. Sure, yeah. Like other people
are getting more crafty. I saw one
from the Body Shop.
Yes. And it had a different
like Body Shop product in it each day. Brilliant.
Yeah, brilliant. So good.
Not cheap though, but brilliant. How much
was it? I don't remember, but it's got 25
Body Shop products in there.
Like assuming... Who doesn't love a body shop?
Assuming everything in there is worth a minimum $5,
you're looking at $125.
I don't know how much they cost.
I just remember it was quite a cool idea.
I'm going to throw you a few ideas, and some of these probably exist.
I'm thinking they would exist because, I mean, companies are smart enough.
But you tell me which one you would like to buy the most.
Sure.
What about mini bottles of alcohol?
Inside an advent calendar?
Yeah.
Yes, I would do that.
So one day you've got a vodka.
Next day you've got a gin.
It sounds like a very merry Christmas.
Oh, you're having a good month anyway.
So it's going to be a good time.
And then on the sixth day it goes, have a rest.
And you go, don't you tell me what to do, Advent Calendar
I'm skipping a day
And on the sixth day
Some rum
Lots of rum
And some more rum
Yeah, get one for the kids, sounds good
Yeah, that's one Advent Calendar you shouldn't be
You know, jumping forward You know, other Advent Calendars doesn't matter But not that one for the kids. Sounds good. Yeah, that's one Advent calendar you shouldn't be jumping for it.
Other Advent calendars doesn't matter, but not that one.
What about different craft beers
each day? Producer Ben
loves that one. Producer Ben's into that, yep.
Producer Ben's girlfriend,
Steph's listening. She works for a beer company.
She does. She's a craft beer queen.
She's like the beacon of all
girlfriends, can I say. That is one.
She is. She works for a beer company.
He's got a girlfriend who works for a beer company.
You could make that.
You could make that our advent calendar.
You could.
It'd be brilliant.
Go and get 25 different craft beers.
Be a great idea.
Do they all have to be craft beers?
Some craft beers are horrible.
Yeah, you can make it with normal beers.
Sometimes, sometimes, and this might be controversial,
sometimes you just feel like a regular old Heineken or a Lion Red
or, God shoot me, a Double Brown.
You know, not every beer has to be infused with pear and pine needles.
I mean, not the best name for a beer.
Double Brown.
Makes some people double brown.
Half the price twice as nice.
Is that what they say?
What about the classic cheese advent calendar?
Oh.
Do these exist?
I'm pretty sure they do.
Because you can't hang them up on the wall.
No.
You'd have to keep it inside your fridge.
Yeah, which is all right.
I'm cool with that.
Yeah, okay.
You'd have your blue and your camembert, all different ones.
Imagine if behind each door, too, it was like a little bit of cheese
and it also had just a couple of crackers.
Yeah, now we're talking. That's a good time.
Yeah.
Garlic bread advent calendar.
Yeah.
Do you have to cock each piece of garlic bread each time?
Oh, yeah.
See, you have to workshop that one.
Yeah.
This is probably my favourite one.
Yeah.
And I don't know if this exists.
Yeah.
But if it doesn't, someone should create it.
Yes.
What about a pork crackling advent calendar?
Just a bit of pork
crackling behind everyone.
Who doesn't want that?
Well, vegetarians.
I was going to say, it's not for everybody.
You don't like
that one. I just said it's not for everybody.
Okay. Okay.
It's for me though. Ho, ho, ho.
You're going to enjoy
this next bit, Brieie because it has an edible
component to it. What are you saying?
That I like food or something?
That we both do.
No I'm saying that's correct. Not everything is
loaded okay? No I'm saying that was correct
if that's what you're saying. Okay good.
Jeez. Don't be so defensive.
Well come on alright.
I've ordered some
hot chips or fries whatever you want to refer to them as,
because a Harvard nutrition professor has determined the safe number of fries to have in any one sitting.
Right.
I want you to take some.
I love these fries.
You can just start nibbling away when you feel like it, okay?
So this is a stat that shows physically, from a health perspective, what is a safe number to have in any one meal.
I don't mean in any one mouthful.
I mean in any one meal.
Right.
So in one sitting.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, I've already had about eight.
Cool.
The safe number of fries to have is six.
Great.
Eric Rim
Is the guy's name
If you want to send him hate mail
He says that fries are starch bombs
No crap they're also carb bombs
Made worse by removing their nutrient filled skin
And frying them in oil
What's his name?
Eric Rim
Oh shut up Eric
What does Eric know?
Eric Rim
The reason they're dangerous is also the reason they're delicious.
So,
here's the thing.
They've released the reason
why it's so dangerous for you is that
but they've also
done studies on what happens to
people who don't eat chips at all.
Oh no. So,
and this pertains to New Zealanders.
You notice how it hasn't deterred me? Yeah, you're still eating. And I like that all. Oh, no. So, and this pertains to New Zealanders.
You notice how it hasn't deterred me?
Yeah, you're still eating.
And I like that about you.
Keep going, mate.
It's your life.
I like to live on the edge.
Yeah.
A recent study has found that New Zealanders who don't eat fries at all live, on average,
six months longer than those who do.
Oh, big deal.
Six months. But that means if I live six months less, I can eat chips my whole life?
That's exactly what it means.
Oh, well, I'll take my chance.
This next story, I read the title and I thought, you know what?
No, I'm going to be accepting.
I love that people in the world are different these days.
And some of us, you know, just live our own lives and go about our day.
Oh, I feel the opportunity to be Judgey McJudgepants right now.
All right.
Well, I'm going to see how Judgey McJudgepants you'll get
when I talk about Amanda Liberty.
She lives over in England and she's recently got engaged.
Oh, congratulations, Amanda Liberty.
Which is amazing. It's congratulations, Amanda Liberty. Which is
amazing. It's just, it's not to a person. I'll let, I'll let Amanda explain. I'm Amanda Liberty.
I'm 33 years old and I'm in an open relationship with a lot of my beautiful chandeliers.
What? What? There's more. I just wanted to check that I heard that correctly. Chandeliers. What? What?
There's more.
I just wanted to check that I heard that correctly.
Chandeliers.
She's in a relationship with multiple chandeliers,
but she's now engaged to one.
Have a listen.
There's such a thing as love at first sight. For me, that works with chandeliers.
And I wear the ring on my finger from Lumiere
because she was actually the second chandelier that I got.
I just fell in love with her on eBay, basically.
And I managed to get her sent over here.
So she's engaged to a chandelier.
A female chandelier.
A female chandelier named Lumiere.
Of course it's called Lumiere.
The century-old chandelier. So she it's called Lumineer. The century old chandelier.
So she's also dating an older woman.
And this chandelier gave her a ring, she said.
Yes. This ring is from Lumineer.
Yeah, so Lumineer the chandelier
wears a ring. And
Amanda Liberty also wears
a ring. Yes.
She recently got
a tattoo to
commemorate the engagement. You hear about this, eh? She recently got a tattoo to... Commemorate.
Commemorate the engagement.
You hear about this, eh?
Yeah. You hear about...
I've heard of guys who are in love with their cars.
Yeah, I remember that guy.
He went around Facebook.
So essentially Amanda identifies as an objectum sexual.
Okay.
So that's what it's actually called,
where she feels attraction to objects and not people.
After first falling in love, her first love was a drum kit when she was 14.
People say I love the drums.
I'm not in love.
I'm going to be very careful what I say.
I'm actually removing my Judgey McJudge pants.
Yeah.
Because I don't want this to be played back in 10 years when we're all dating couches and fridges and stuff and I'll just sound like a horrible person.
Mate, if I could date a fridge,
I would have dated it a long time ago.

I want to talk about that fight that was on on the weekend,
the Tyson Fury-Deontay Wilder fight,
which you probably didn't catch.
It's a heavyweight boxing fight.
I didn't see it,
but it got a lot of television coverage, but for a different reason?
Yeah, these are the guys who fight in the same weight grade as Joseph Parker.
Right.
So Tyson Fury used to be heavyweight world champion.
Deontay Wilder holds one of the belts at the moment.
Don't let me lose you on boring sports chat, because the result of it is quite interesting.
It was a draw. interesting it was a draw
the fight was a draw can that happen yeah yeah so there's three judges and if one judge scores it
one way and the other judge scores it the other way it's called a split decision but the third
judge has to pick someone the third judge in the middle called it a draw so it was a draw it's a
draw yeah so anyway it goes to a draw Tyson Fury Tyson Fury hasn't fought for two and a half years.
And in that time, he put on 65 kilos.
Oh my God.
He battled mental health issues in a major way.
He tried to commit suicide.
He said on Joe Rogan's podcast that he was driving,
he bought himself a brand new Ferrari,
took it out on the highway, was going 190 miles an hour,
and pointed the car at a bridge and just thought,
I've had enough.
You know that's like 400, nearly?
Yeah.
400, well, not quite.
Not quite, but it's over 300 k's an hour,
and he pulled out at the last minute.
From that, he's turned his life around
and got back into the ring to have this fight.
He has said this about the result of that fight and everything that went down in the lead up to it.
Have a listen to this.
Two and a half year out the ring, 10 stone ballooned, mental health problems.
I just showed the world tonight, everyone's suffering with mental health, that you can come back and it can be done.
Everybody out there who has the same problems I've been suffering with, I did that for you guys.
You know the truth.
Everybody knows I won that fight.
And if I can come back from where I come from,
then you can do it too.
So get up, get over it, and let's do it.
Seek help, and let's do it together as a team.
I did it for you guys.
Pretty incredible, right?
That is, yeah, amazing.
News out today that the $8 million purse that he got for that fight,
he made $8 million from it.
Whoa.
He's donating the whole thing to mental health and homeless charities in the UK.
Wow.
Crazy, eh?
Isn't that incredible?
And I'd love to look into his story a bit more as to who were the people there for him,
who pulled him out of it, when was the moment where he kind of like,
you know, got his life back on track.
Yeah, it is fascinating.
And they reckon that, well, everything going to plan,
him and Joseph Parker will fight each other soon.
Again?
Yeah, well, no, they haven't fought each other yet.
Oh, they haven't fought each other yet.
No.
Crazy, eh?
Yeah, that's insane.
