Starting point is 00:00:00 Kia ora everybody and welcome to the final Brian Clint podcast ever. From the road. Yeah. Oh no, that's not even true either. No, maybe that's right. It's just some of the road trip, yeah. Still two more weeks of this show to go. I saw some big shows are knocking off already.
Starting point is 00:00:13 Jason PJ have already knocked off. They're gone. Kyle and Jackie O, they're out. They're gone. Mike Hosking did his last show today. He's done. Yeah. Over.
Starting point is 00:00:22 Tell you what, if Jono and Ben are on holiday already. Are they on holiday? I don't know. Producers? No? Well, that's good because they're hard workers like us. They really are the hardest workers I've seen in radio for a long time. Behind us.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Behind us, of course. Got to put yourself at the top, okay? I mean, behind us. Don't care for what you say. Otherwise, I'll be like, shit, we should get those guys in here. Ross will be like, are they hard workers? Are they? Nah, nah, not really. Not from what I've seen. Yeah. Careful what you say, otherwise I'll be like, shit, we should get those guys in here. Ross will be like, are they hard workers? Nah, nah, not really. Not from what I've seen.
Starting point is 00:00:48 Yeah. Mostly the dogs. Yeah. The dogs do all the work. Yeah, yeah. It's our last day of our road trip. We're in Queenstown at the moment. Back in Queenstown.
Starting point is 00:00:57 This is where we started. Mm-hmm. And I feel wrecked. Me too. You'll hear that in the show. I think it sounds in times very relaxed. It doesn't sound as much like a Friday show is probably what you use. No beers on this Friday show?
Starting point is 00:01:12 No, no beers. We had a shot of tequila. Thanks a lot, producers. Earlier, we had a shot of tequila before we did our bungee jump. Oh, yeah, that's right. We did a bungee jump. Tequila wasn't my idea, and I'd actually just had half a coffee and then when the tequila mixed in with the milk
Starting point is 00:01:28 it didn't go well. Well that and then jumping off a bridge. Yeah, it's like a cocksucking cowboy shot. Ew, what the frick is a cocksucking... Oh, do you guys not have those? Bree's got the weirdest drinks. When she got here she's like, you guys gotta go and get a pussy licker. No, it's not that. We were at that bar in Wellington
Starting point is 00:01:44 and she went up to this chick and you're like, can I get a pussy lick? The shot, it's not that. We were at that bar in Wellington and she went up to this chick and you're like, can I get a pussy lick? The shot is called a wet pussy. Ah, way better. So to be honest, I created it before Cardi B. A whap.
Starting point is 00:01:55 Yeah, a whap. A wet pussy shot. Anyway, there's some drinks. No, no, you guys turn your nose up. Every Aussie listening right now goes, yeah, that's normal. But read the room, mate. We didn't know what it was when you came in with that.
Starting point is 00:02:06 But I didn't know that. I know that. I knew it after I said it. I'm telling you now, you walk into a bar and you go, can I get a cocksucking cowboy? A cocksucking cowboy is like Kahlua and something else mixed together. Depending what bar you're in in New Zealand. Cowboys here in Queenstown would probably know what it is.
Starting point is 00:02:24 Well, we've got Gareth, but you've got to ask for consent. It's really up to him. What do you guys order here? A slippery nipple? What do you order here? You can get a six on the beach. I don't know what that is. Oh, boring. You can get a quick fuck. Yeah, that's pretty standard.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Wet pussy shots are the best shots out because you can actually do it. I don't doubt it. You can actually do it without going like this. Better than a dry one. Yeah. You know? Anastasia's turning her nose up. Anastasia, do you want to do a wet pussy shot tonight?
Starting point is 00:02:56 Oh, yeah, go on. They're delicious. Ben, you want to cock like a cowboy? Hey, Joel and Anita are on board. They're on board for the wet pussies. Or I'm buying everyone a wet pussy tonight, including Joel. Joel, you've had a wet pussy? Nah, never, never.
Starting point is 00:03:09 Yeah, well, we'll go. I can't ask Anita that question. It's not appropriate. Anita, you going good? Anita, you going good? Yeah, I'm good. Let's go to the club across the road and get some. Okay, that's not appropriate.
Starting point is 00:03:17 It's not appropriate to ask Anita. I'm not allowed to go up to Anita and say, have you ever had a. Hey, Clint, I'm going to buy. You can ask Regis or Anastasia. No, I said, do you want one? Clint, we're going to go to the club across the road and I'm going to buy everyone a wet pussy. Oh, wait, yeah, wait.
Starting point is 00:03:32 This is the club. Oh, yeah, it's a strip club. See, that's where you can't ask for a wet pussy shot. I'm getting on a plane and going home. It means something different. If we're getting our pussies wet, we need to hurry up. I've got 20 minutes. Oh, let's go find one.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Hey, Ben, you're going to have to put a warning on the front of this, and you can't, can you? Oh, shit. Gobble me, swallow me. Drip down the side of me. Wet ass pussy shot. We should just stop. I want to go to, I want to wrap this trip up, right?
Starting point is 00:04:09 Yes. And I want some words of inspiration from Joel. Okay, Joel, our Black Thunder driver. Just something to round out the trip. Something sentimental. The pressure. And philosophical. Something from you.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Actually, no pressure Whatever you want This will be the last thing That's said from the tour So are you ready Brie? Yeah I'm ready Okay Joel Take it away

But, yeah. I love that the lecturer's advice wasn't don't drink at the work party. It was just don't be the most drunk. Just don't be the most drunk.

Starting point is 00:05:43 four, three, two, two. What a way to start the weekend. One, two, three. G'day, everybody. Brie and Clint, we're live from Queenstown on the last day of our ultimate summer roadie. Oh, yeah. What a week it has been.
Starting point is 00:06:01 Right? Hectic. Crazy, awesome, fun mayhem this week, isn't it? It's been all of the above, yes. Yeah. Are you tired? I'm tired. I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:06:10 I'm a little bit tired. No one wants to hear that you're tired, though, when all we've been Instagramming is hot pools and salmon fishing. Such a hot. So many people have been messaging me on Instagram. They're like, you really do have a bloody good job. And we do. And we have a bloody good country too.
Starting point is 00:06:26 We've seen some amazing sights this week in our juicy camper vans. I've never been to that part of the South Island before. I've done Queenstown and I've visited Wanaka, but never out to Tekapore. Never drove over Linda's Pass. Never been through, where did we go through? Cromwell and all that today? Yes, yep. I love
Starting point is 00:06:41 Cromwell. Amazing. What's your favourite thing about Cromwell? I love that it's a fruit growing area. Yes. Because it reminds me of home. I like the big... And I like the go-kart in the speedway track. Oh, yeah. I like the naughty looking giant peach.
Starting point is 00:06:56 Yeah, the peach is good, isn't it? Come at that at the right angle and... Oh, baby. Look out. I think it would taste very good. They just need to start growing some eggplants down there. Wrong climate, I think. Whack up a giant eggplant.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Wrong climate. I think they come out shrunk. Oh, right. Because it's cold. Yeah, right, right. Yeah, eggplants shrink in the cold. No one wants a shriveled aubergine. No, it makes me want to get out and see more of New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Eggplants? No, not... Oh, this trip. Oh, yeah, right. I've seen enough New Zealand eggplants, to be honest. Brinkley's eggplant tour is next year. Yeah, that's a whole different tour. Today on the show, we've got a $250...
Starting point is 00:07:33 It's cash, actually. We've got $250 cash to give away thanks to FN Vodka. If you want to say cheers to the FN weekend after birthday banger. How good. That is a good way to kick off your weekend. We're also going to give away another $500 Nando's voucher just after 4 o'clock this afternoon. Did you see?
Starting point is 00:07:50 I read today that Prince William has talked about how much he loves Nando's. Does he? Yeah. Big Nando's fan. Isn't that interesting, eh? He has royal chefs and royal butlers. Can't beat.
Starting point is 00:08:02 He loves getting on the Nando's. Can't beat some peri-peri chicken, a half chicken and chips from Nando's. He'd have a guy I'd go and get it for him too. He'd have a Nando's guy. Do you reckon he'd have one of those infamous black cards? Oh. The Nando's black cards?
Starting point is 00:08:16 Well, this $500 card is basically a black card. Pretty much that, yeah. If you want to win it, ten past four, we're going to give that away this afternoon. But next, we want to talk excess baggage nightmares. That's right. There's an airline, of course, not Air New Zealand,
Starting point is 00:08:29 because they're the best, but there's an airline overseas that have talked about bringing in a new baggage rule. Yeah. And it's going to blow your mind. Right. It's not going to make you happy. Right.
Starting point is 00:08:41 I don't know if anyone was planning on flying with this airline, because it is overseas, but hey, let's talk about it. Who knows? Vaccine's coming soon. You never know. We'll talk about it after Drake. This is Hotline Bling. Friday Jams. Bree and Clint. We're live from Queenstown this afternoon. Zidim. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:08:58 We're live from Queenstown, everybody. We're on Zidim's ultimate summer roadie. I wanted to talk about this new charge that this airline is bringing in. Don't worry, it's not here because, you know, we've got great airlines here. But it's an airline by the name of EasyJet. Heard of EasyJet. Very, very big airline in the UK.
Starting point is 00:09:22 They're a, what's a nice word? Budget airline. Cheap and cheerful. Yeah, they call themselves a budget airline. They're one of the most profitable airlines in the world as well. Are they? They are. I've never enjoyed the idea of cheaping out on flights.
Starting point is 00:09:37 Yeah, I've always thought about this where I'm like, what's the one thing you should not skip on? It's probably when you're up in the air at 40,000 feet. Yeah, and I know people are on a budget and money is tight, obviously. But when you look at it, you go, where are they saving the costs? I'd like to, well, I'm about to tell you. Is it brake pads? I'm about to tell you.
Starting point is 00:09:57 Is it discount engine fuel? Let's hope not. But EasyJet are set to roll out a new charge in 2021. Okay. So in February, EasyJet will start charging all customers a fee to use the overhead luggage compartments on all of its flights. Bull crap, they will. No bull crap.
Starting point is 00:10:20 A fee to use the... So, get this, all passengers will be allowed to bring one free bag on board. Yeah. But if it can't fit under the seat in front of you... Yeah. ...and you need to put it in the overhead, then you pay. People are just going to start kicking their luggage as hard as they can underneath the seat. I know.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Stuffing it in. How much do you think? Oh. Because I've got the price here. It's going to be something stupid like $30, isn't it? They will be charging $47 to use the overhead compartment. I know things are tight. I know it's tough out there post-COVID.
Starting point is 00:10:56 But that's ridiculous. Like, that's what budget airlines do. You don't check a bag in. You just do a carry-on and you put it in the thing over top. Because you're trying to save money. Is that what it is? People are starting to take the piss with the bags that they take on there. Because I've seen some carry-ons being rolled on.
Starting point is 00:11:12 That's just crazy. That's not carry-on. That's not carry-on. Yeah, that's not carry-on. How are you going to get that into the overhead bin? Also, I've always found it interesting that ladies can have quite a large handbag and that's not considered... Oh, don't mess with that. No, no, I'm's not considered... Oh, don't mess with that.
Starting point is 00:11:25 No, no, I'm not. No, no, I'm not. No, no, I'm not messing with that. Where do we... We can have somewhere without tampons. I know, I know, but some... And then the conversation's over. Some handbags are carry-on size, you know?
Starting point is 00:11:36 Some handbags are massive. Yeah, and then there's a carry-on bag as well. That is our right as a female. No, it is, yeah. And you know what? You benefit too because if you've got a female partner, you can put stuff in there.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Forget that. I'm going full Harry Styles. I'm getting myself a large woman's handbag. Yeah, get a man bag. Why not? I love a man bag. We want to know,
Starting point is 00:11:54 0800 DIAL ZM, what was your excess baggage charge? How much did you get charged? Yeah. Like, was it outrageous? Yeah. You can call us now.
Starting point is 00:12:05 0800 dial ZM or text us on 9696. It's the dreaded moment when you're standing at the airport and they say to you, you're over your baggage weight. And you're like, oh no. By how much? Because there's no way to know
Starting point is 00:12:21 until you get to the airport too. No one's got bag scales. You know what? Have you ever seen that thing where you, my brother's got one because he skis a lot and stuff. You hook it onto your bag and then you pull the bag up with the. Oh my God, your brother's got baggage scales. Well, yeah, I guess it's there. That's what it is.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Have I ever told you that that's my superpower? That you can guess? Yeah. Oh, really? I can weigh people's bags. We should put that to the test then. Yeah, we should. I'm scarily accurate. Okay. Yeah. Well, you've I can weigh people's bags. We should put that to the test then. Yeah, we should. I'm scarily accurate. Okay.
Starting point is 00:12:47 Well, you've said it now. We'll see. We'll see how good you are. There's an airline over in the UK by the name of EasyJet. They're a budget airline. They're rolling out a new charge next year, which will make customers pay a fee if they want to use the overhead luggage
Starting point is 00:13:04 compartments. Yeah, this is next level. $47 if you want to take an overhead bag. Because where do they stop? You used to get on a plane and you got everything. You got dinner. You got unlimited drinks. They bring you some ciggies. They didn't have movies.
Starting point is 00:13:18 Show. You got a show. Yeah, there's a show. They're always. They'd go in the aisles. They'd do a little cabaret thing. Yep. And now you have to pay to use the over-heat luggage compartment.
Starting point is 00:13:27 What next, pay for the seatbelts? Maybe. Pay for the seat? You have to put a dollar coin in to get the seatbelt working. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we've asked you guys this afternoon on 0800DIALZM, how much did you pay in excess baggage fees? Hi, Antonia.
Starting point is 00:13:41 Hello. Hi. Tell us what happened, Antonia. So we were on our way home from Hawaii Hi, Antonia. Hello. Hi. Tell us what happened, Antonia. So we were on our way home from Hawaii, and we got to the airport to put our bags on the scale. Two of our party was overweight. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:13:59 The fee was going to be $300 US. Whoa. So $600 around about. Yeah. It was only like a kilo or something. So one of them just paid it and the other one opened up their bags and wore all of the clothes and made people
Starting point is 00:14:13 wear their clothes so they didn't want to pay. Yes. Oh no, Antonia. I rate that. I enjoy seeing people do it. But that's an uncomfortable flight back from Hawaii. But it's a peaceful protest. Yeah. It's like, well, if you're going to make me pay that much, it's ridiculous. I'm going to be ridiculous and put on everything I own.
Starting point is 00:14:29 You're welcome to, Sarah. Go for it. Sarah's called up. Hi, Sarah. G'day, Sarah. Hi. What happened, Sarah? How much did you pay in excess baggage fee?
Starting point is 00:14:40 500 euro coming back from Germany. How much? 500 euros. 500 Euros. So is that what, roughly about... Is that $1,500? Yeah, but she only charged me half price in ink, like my face died. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:14:59 It's only 860 New Zealand dollars. But it was originally 500. And how much were you over, Sarah? About 10 kg. Okay. See, this is the price of a whole other seat, though. And it always blows my mind because the person sitting beside you might be 10 kgs heavier.
Starting point is 00:15:16 And they didn't pay extra for it. Oh, don't start this argument. No, no, no, no. I'm not suggesting we pay by weight. I'm just saying we need to be a bit more lenient. And maybe the really skinny passengers I guess their clothes don't weigh as much.
Starting point is 00:15:30 I'm backing out of the second. I was going to say, run, Clint, run. There's a few good texts coming through. Someone said that they paid $160 for an extra three kilos of weight on their flight. Yeah, that's crazy.
Starting point is 00:15:45 It was almost more than the flight, they said. Someone said my overweight baggage fee was just shy of $800. It was cheaper for me to move home from Australia and bring 100 kilos of luggage than take it with me. It gets to a point where you have to start wondering if the stuff you're flying home is worth the price of the baggage. Because if it's $800, look at what's in the suitcase and maybe go, well, I'll just get new stuff at home. Well, yeah, maybe you could get all new stuff.
Starting point is 00:16:14 If you don't have nice stuff, why would you pay that much to get it home? That's a great idea. One last text. Someone said they paid $1,800 Australian dollars. Honestly, how much is the stuff worth in the bag? Yeah. Just ditch it. said they paid 1800 Australian dollars. Honestly. How much is the stuff worth in the bag? Yeah. Just ditch it. And how much do you need it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:32 It's all your kids stuff. Just ditch one of their bags. They're not going to know. They need a pair of jingles. They'll be sweet. Yeah, they'll be good to go. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio. This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean's with us.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Harry Styles has hit back at some of the haters about manly men. Dean's here. Hi, Dean. G'day, Dean. Hi, guys. Look, it was a breathtaking cover of Vogue where Harry Styles wore, yeah, how would you describe it? If you haven't seen it, he's wearing a dress
Starting point is 00:17:09 in some of the photos, a skirt in some of the photos. It's very modern. It's very cool. And he has been, he's kind of had like, you know, a bit of backlash about it. Most of us love it. And most of us are like, this is so cool. And he looks so fantastic.
Starting point is 00:17:24 And he's clapped back at anyone that wasn't into it. But you know what? He's Harry Styles and it's 2020 and you can wear whatever you want. And when you're given the cover of Vogue, can I just say, you can wear and get away with anything. I love it. Yeah, it got quite heated because quite a high profile person did a post saying that we need to bring back manly men and that society will not survive without manly men targeting Harry in the
Starting point is 00:17:49 dress. What makes Harry not a manly man? That's what I want to know. Exactly right. We've got to get rid of this BS. God, come on. Well, today Harry Styles has posted on his Instagram a picture of him in another dress this time eating a banana very seductively,
Starting point is 00:18:05 and he's just added the caption, bring back manly men, which is very good. I love Harry Styles. And Dean, as one of the most manly men I know, what's your message? Should we, you know, just live all free, live fast, die young? Do what you want.
Starting point is 00:18:22 Do what you want. You live once. Seriously, this is not the dress rehearsal. This is the main event. So I think you can wear whatever you want Do what you want You live once Seriously This is not the dress rehearsal This is the main event So I think you can wear Whatever you want Especially now And just express yourself
Starting point is 00:18:31 However you want And I think it's fantastic And I love that Harry Styles Did this Love Harry It's just been A really cool message A lot of people
Starting point is 00:18:39 Girls can wear shorts Men can wear skirts Let's all just make it But I can't wear dungarees But that's more of a fashion thing. That's more of a, yeah, your body type. That's the latest. Thanks to Cookie Time celebrating 35 years of Christmas cookies.
Starting point is 00:18:52 Book a seller now at christmascookies.co.nz. Bree and Clint. Shout out to anyone in Queenstown tonight. There'll be some of us out in the town. We are broadcasting from an office across the road from... What's it called? What's that nightclub called? It's called...
Starting point is 00:19:08 Establishment. The club. The club. And if you know, you know. Yeah, if you know, you know. May visit there tonight because I don't know. Yeah, no, actually plead ignorance. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:19:21 Yeah, okay. I'll come in for a look too. Look, just a wee peek. Shouldn't have said peek. I wanted to talk about, because we talked about yesterday, along with every other person in the world nearly who were posting their top stream songs on Spotify. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:36 We can stop that now, eh? Yeah, we can stop that now. We've all seen them. But we did cover off what were the top songs globally that topped the top streams on Spotify. Of course, The Weeknd's Blinding Lights was number one. Most streams for 2020 on Spotify globally. And he still can't get nominated for a Grammy.
Starting point is 00:20:00 Crazy, isn't it? Yeah, doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make any sense. But we did talk about the Aussie Sheila, who was living out of her van about 18 months ago, who received the second most streams globally in the world for 2020. It was Tones and I. Dance monkey. What a massive breakout hit for her.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Yeah. Huge, massive. I was looking online today because I was like, I wonder because we spoke about she bought that amazing house in Melbourne this year. She bought a house for her mum. And you said, I wonder how much money she made from that song. Because I know notoriously Spotify doesn't pay a lot.
Starting point is 00:20:43 Yeah. But if you're the second most streamed song of the year globally, surely it pays a bit. I've found out. Oh, yeah, I'm so keen for this. I know how much she's made. So let's just say that Dance Monkey song, the amount of times it's been streamed on Spotify
Starting point is 00:20:59 equals about 13,000 years of people listening. Of non-stop tones and eye. Of people listening to that song. Oh, wow. I mean, if you're not sick of it already. Yeah, right. It is an earworm. She also holds the title for the most streamed female artist on the platform.
Starting point is 00:21:18 Yes. And it's estimated that the song was streamed about 2 billion times this year. Really? Which earned her a whopping $12 million in royalties. $12 million. $12 million. You know, we released a song on Spotify. Don't talk about it.
Starting point is 00:21:42 We did. And you don't know. You don't know what's going to happen. You don't. We could have went massive. We could have went massive. Tone Denied didn't know that that song was going to do that.
Starting point is 00:21:50 No. Imagine. We earned. Imagine we released the viral hit of 2021. We didn't. Ours earned $32. Yeah, Ben keeps all the money. Yeah, he hasn't even given us our share.
Starting point is 00:22:03 Ben, where's our money? Damn it, Ben. Brie and Clint. I want to talk about people who are a real chip off the old block, you know? The apple didn't fall far from the tree in these families, you know? What other saying can you get in there? Like father like son, you know? Like mother like daughter.
Starting point is 00:22:19 Like mother like daughter. Like grandfather. Like great-grandniece. I don't know. This is a story about Formula One legend Michael Schumacher, seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, the greatest, well, what? No, sorry, excuse me.
Starting point is 00:22:39 I don't know enough about the sport. One of the greatest Formula One drivers of all time. His son, Mick Schumacher, has just made the Formula One, the hardest racing job to get in the entire world. And you've got to say, yeah, he got a little bit of natural talent from his dad, but that only goes so far. He's going to be in the Formula One next year.
Starting point is 00:22:58 That's crazy. I don't know if Michael Schumacher is like, because he has been out of the public eye since his accident in 2013. He was in a coma for a long, long time. I really hope that he's in a position where he knows what his son, what's going on. But nobody knows. Nobody knows what his health condition is like.
Starting point is 00:23:15 It was a freak skiing accident, wasn't it? Yeah, it was. Yeah. Either way, Mick will start driving in Formula One next year. He's 21. That's insane, isn't it? 21. But they start, I know for a fact that these families,
Starting point is 00:23:29 like he would have been driving go-karts and all that since he was. They have to. Could be able to drive. Because they have to get there. And the drivers these days have to be young because they have to have the cognitive function. Super fit. Really fast reactions.
Starting point is 00:23:42 It's like gaming. It's like those pro gamers. Obviously a little bit different. Driving a Formula One car, you have heard exactly like gaming. It's like those pro gamers. Obviously a little bit different. Driving a Formula One car, you've heard exactly like gaming, Clem. He's not going to drive a Ferrari yet. He's not? No, but he could. He's been in the Ferrari development
Starting point is 00:23:55 team. He's going to drive for excuse me if I don't get the pronunciation right, Haas. Haas. H-A-A-S. Haas. Well, you'd hope that eventually he would follow in his dad's footsteps and drive for Ferrari. Yeah, right? Yeah. His dad also drove for Mercedes though. Yeah, that's true. Yeah. That is a total case of chip off the old block. Yeah, absolutely. Like Caleb Clark. All black. His dad was an all black. It's amazing to me. And you can't deny that that is partly genetics.
Starting point is 00:24:29 Yeah. And you can't deny that it's partly the parent imprinting their wants onto the child. Yeah. Living out their dream for a bit longer. Totally. Totally. Because what's better than being an all black? Creating an all black.
Starting point is 00:24:43 Totally. I did it. It's like I did it twice. Can you imagine the Barrett family? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I mean, you know, their dad didn't play for the All Blacks. No, but he played for Taranaki.
Starting point is 00:24:55 But, yeah, so he played, you know, quite a high level. But they produced three All Blacks. Yeah. Crazy. You've got to think odds-wise there's some more All Blacks coming. Yeah. From those guys. Surely. No pressure, Barrett children. Yeah. Crazy. You've got to think odds-wise there's some more all blacks coming. Yeah. From those guys. Surely.
Starting point is 00:25:06 No pressure, Barrett children. Yeah. But, yeah, we want more all blacks. Bowdoin Barrett's new daughter. Yeah. Look out. She could be a black fern. She could be.
Starting point is 00:25:16 Or an all black, judging from their genetics. Well, true, actually. The sky's the limit. Me, not a chip off the old block. My dad is a very capable um or like um uh car guy what's the word um you know does things with the cars you really aren't are you he he built cars he fixes cars mechanic he's not a mechanic though he just he's very good with cars yeah me not so much rather pay for a service you know We're very different like that. Dad?
Starting point is 00:25:47 Never taken a car for a service in his life because he'd rather do it himself. Oil change? I can do that my bloody self. Me? Oh, can I get a courtesy car, please? You know? I don't know how to get home. And maybe a cup of tea in the waiting room. Don't ask me to change a tyre.
Starting point is 00:25:57 I mean, I'm being you. I can change it. Excuse me. Oh, I don't. Don't say things. I can change a tyre. You know don't say things on the radio. I can beat you in a tyre changing challenge. Oh. I can do that bit. You know don't say things on the radio. I can beat you in a tyre changing challenge.
Starting point is 00:26:06 I can do that bit. All right. You, did the apple fall very far from the tree? Your mum is a hairdresser. I cut my own hair. You cut my hair. I cut your hair. It was good for a week until I could get back into a real hair salon.
Starting point is 00:26:19 Yeah, I'm not the best at that. And I also am not an apple farmer. No, your dad's an apple orchardist. You don't have particularly green fingers. No. No? Not that great with plants. No.
Starting point is 00:26:29 My dad's very good. What's wrong with us? How come we didn't make our parents proud and take up the family business, you know? My mum's a teacher. Yeah. A radio dude. Do you teach anything? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:40 My mum's a horrific singer, and so am I. Right. Okay. Oh, there you go. You tripped off the old block in that sense. There's something. Yeah. Oh, my dad suffers from gout.
Starting point is 00:26:49 And you do. And I got gout. There you go. I'm a chip off the old block. My dad, great moustache. Me. Great moustache. Pretty good moustache as well.
Starting point is 00:26:58 So there you go. We want to know on our Andrew Dahl's ZM this afternoon, are you a chip off the old block? And maybe it's for something successful or maybe it's for something you wish you weren't a chip off the old block? And maybe it's for something successful, or maybe it's for something you wish you weren't a chip off the old block for. But you followed in your parents' footsteps. Yeah, what is it about you that makes you go,
Starting point is 00:27:12 damn, I really am their son or daughter. Maybe your third generation or fourth generation of something. Yes. That could be, you know, running through the family veins. Totally, yeah. I'd like to hear about that. Maybe mum was a black fern, you were a black fern. Oh, that's cool. I don't know if they had black ferns for grandmas, but if they. I'd like to hear about that. Maybe mum was a black fern, you were a black fern. Oh, that's cool. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:26 I don't know if they had black ferns for grandmas, but if they did, we want to hear about it. Absolutely. 0800-DIAL-ZM. Are you a chip off the old block? Bree and Clint. We are live from Queenstown at the moment, and we want to know, are you a chip off the old block?
Starting point is 00:27:40 Michael Schumacher's son, Mick Schumacher. Is it Mick? Mick, yeah. Very close to Michael. It'll be short for Michael. Michael Jr.acher's son Mick Schumacher. Is it Mick? Mick, yeah. Very close to Michael. It'll be short for Michael. Michael Jr. Yeah. Yeah, right. He's going to drive in Formula 1. Incredible achievement. That's amazing. Yeah. And we want to know,
Starting point is 00:27:55 are you a chip off the old block? A great text that's come in about this so far. Someone said I'm a chip off the old block. My dad's bald and I'm balding. Nice. I like that. Nothing wrong with that. My dad's bald and I'm balding. Nice. I like that. Nothing wrong with that. Sana's called up. Hi, Sana.
Starting point is 00:28:09 Hi. Hi, how's it going? Good. Are you a chip off the old block, Sana, following in your relative's footsteps? Yeah, I am. So my grandmother plays the harp and I've been into it since I was about four.
Starting point is 00:28:23 And I still play. We do weddings together and we, yeah. What? That's awesome. A harp is such a beautiful instrument. So that makes her a harpist? You're a harpist? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:35 She's always harping on. Yeah, harping on about it. She's always harping on about something. Sana, that's so cool. Do people, like, if you tell them that you play the harp, are they like, so what? Yeah, everybody. And because I'm so young, they're all like, if you tell them that you play the harp, are they like, so what? Yeah, everybody. And because I'm so young, they're all like, what the heck?
Starting point is 00:28:49 Yeah. You'd need a grandma who played the harp to get into the harp. Because if my daughter came home and said to me, Dad, I want to play the harp, obviously I would move heaven and earth to get her a harp. But I don't think you can go down to the harp shop and grab a harp. Yeah, they're not just, you know, everywhere.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Harps are us. Yeah. Sana, how much did your harp cost? Just under eight and a half grand. Whoa! My kid can play the recorder. I was going to say, if my daughter's listening. How's the ukulele sound?
Starting point is 00:29:16 I'll buy a recorder. Thanks, Sana. There's a few great texts coming through on this. Someone said, my dad is a pilot and three of my brothers are pilots. Ah, three chips off the old block. What do you do, though? You've conveniently left out what you do. Yeah, I wonder what they do.
Starting point is 00:29:31 Oh, I know what they do. They take free flights. Oh, see, that's good. Even better. Yeah. If you've got four pilots in the family, you'd better be getting free flights. Let's go to George. George, are you a chip off the old block?
Starting point is 00:29:43 Good afternoon, I am. Okay. why? What is it? Unfortunately, from both parents, parents, should I say, my mother's terrible sense of direction I've inherited. Yeah. And I've inherited my father's handwriting. Oh, nice. Perfect.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Yeah, the perfect combination. George, are you like me? Do you know left and right? I know my left and right. I started in east and west, so go away. Oh, right. Yeah, I perfect combination. George, are you like me? Do you know left and right? I know my left and right. So you start in east and west, so go away. Oh, right. Yeah, I don't know left and right. I've got my mum's sense of direction. My dad will describe things with road names and maybe with landmarks,
Starting point is 00:30:17 and I just Google Maps. No idea. Google Maps, yeah. I think that's our generation, maybe. Thank you, George. That's very good. We appreciate that. Carl's here. G'day, Carl. Hi, Carl. Hi. that's our generation, maybe. Thank you, George. That's very good. We appreciate that. Carl's here.
Starting point is 00:30:25 G'day, Carl. Hi, Carl. Hi. You chip off the old block? Yeah. Why? I'm a third-generation musician. Oh, nice.
Starting point is 00:30:35 That's cool. Tell us about the other generations and then yourself. So my dad started when he was seven playing the guitar, and my grandfather was the same. He started about the same age. Wait, and so what do you do? I'm a drummer. Have you ever thought about starting a band?
Starting point is 00:30:57 I've been in bands since I was seven playing. No, with them. Yeah, you can call it three jam. I started in their band. Oh, you started in their band. Oh, there we go. Oh, nice. No, no. No, with them. Yeah, call it, you can call it 3G. I started in their band. Oh, you started in their band. Oh, there we go. Oh, nice. Cool. Perfect, cool.
Starting point is 00:31:09 What's your band name? So it was an old time dance band. So it was a Chapman old time dance band. Yeah, do you guys have a name? That was what it was called. Oh, the Chapman old time dance band.
Starting point is 00:31:21 God, you didn't get that? No, sorry. You haven't heard of them? Yeah, not yet, not yet. I haven't come up with my Spotify discoverer. That's very cool, Carl. Thanks, Carl. We Old Time Dance Band. God, you didn't get that? No, sorry. You haven't heard of them? Not yet. Not yet. That's very cool, Carl. Thanks, Carl. We appreciate it, man.
Starting point is 00:31:29 That's cool. All right. All the chips off the old blocks out there. I wish our parents had a bit of talent to pass down. Bree and Clint. The road trip has been fantastic. We've done some great things. We've done hot pools.
Starting point is 00:31:40 We've done salmon fishing. We've done jet boating. And it's all been building to today's activity, which was meant to be a bungee jump. I mean, the bungee jump is quintessentially Kiwi. It was invented here. The great
Starting point is 00:31:55 AJ Hackett. There was the first bungee here in Queenstown. Absolutely. I hate bungee jumps. I've been feigning some BDE this whole week going, I'm going to jump, I'm going to jump, I'm going to jump. Piece of cake. You, you've been more realistic going,
Starting point is 00:32:11 I'll decide on the day, I'll decide on the day, I'll decide on the day. I've employed some emotional blackmail to get you to jump in the form of all black Captain Richie McCaw on the phone saying, oh, why don't you just bloody do it? I still can't believe you got Richie McCaw on the phone. I thought if we're going to do this, we've got to go big. You know, we've got to go to the top.
Starting point is 00:32:30 It was him or Jacinda. They're the only ones who... Yeah, true. And Jacinda was actually on track to land one of the Air Force Iroquois on the Kawaro Bridge to give you a rub on the back. Was she? Yeah, but then she got busy. She got busy.
Starting point is 00:32:43 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Today was the day we arrived at AJ Hackett Kawaro Bridge. The original. To the original bungee jump. OG. Just outside of Queenstown to do our bungee jump. How did it go?
Starting point is 00:32:58 Well, have a listen to this. Okay, we're at the edge. Genuinely, how are you feeling? Yeah, I can't even talk. And that's really unusual for me. We're not at the edge. Genuinely, how are you feeling? Yeah, I can't even talk. And that's really unusual for me. We're not at the edge, we're sort of sitting on the step up. Can you just promise not to go too early? Like, wait for me.
Starting point is 00:33:14 I'll be going on one, is that okay? No, you have to wait. Trust me, it's worse if we don't go the first time. Hold on to each other. Yeah, stand up on here. No, slide on forward so you can stand up next to me. You've got to run. You've got to breath. You've got to go.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Don't let go, give her a chance! So, keep your toes right up over the edge. I'm going to hold you still. We're going to do this again. We're going to do this. Okay? Yeah. And you're going to flip around yourself.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Toes over the edge guys. Breathe, breathe, breathe. Here we go. Five, four, three, two, one. Bungie. Can you hear me? You did it. We did it as a tandem.
Starting point is 00:33:57 We went together and Bree screamed the whole way down. I don't even remember. I would have screamed, but nothing came out. I tried to scream, but it was like that. It was like. Yeah. So you did it. Your first ever bungee jump.
Starting point is 00:34:12 What did you think? It was really emotional for me. Yeah. Like standing up there. I feel like 2020 has been such a crappy year for so many people. Yeah. And I felt like standing up there. I was like, you know what? Sometimes you just got to go off head first.
Starting point is 00:34:29 And I honestly couldn't have done it without you standing there next to me. And I feel like it was a real, like, I don't know, moment to sum up 2020 for me. Yeah, yeah. And I'm so glad I've had such an amazing group of people around me, such great mates like you and, like, the whole team that we've been on the road trip this week. It's been really nice. Don't use it as a literal metaphor, though.
Starting point is 00:34:50 If you've had a shit 2020, don't throw yourself in the fridge. No, don't do that. Unless it's at an AJ Hackett bungee near you. What an ad. In which case, what a great way to turn your year around. There's a video coming of it. And I'll just say now, neither of us look good. The water on Bree's face,
Starting point is 00:35:05 it's rain, okay? It's rain. 100% rain. Not tears. Not tears. And also, the rude thing about a bungee jump, we love you AJ Hackett,
Starting point is 00:35:12 we love everything you do. They write your weight on the back of your hand in the biggest, reddest letters you've ever seen. To be honest, I don't know what I was more scared at,
Starting point is 00:35:20 jumping off the bridge or having my weight written on my hand. Put it this way. Honestly. We've both enjoyed the buffet on this road trip. Four kilos worth of it. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:35:31 We're live from Queenstown on Zilliam's Ultimate Summer Roadie, which explains why there's no Friday Oki. Yes. Don't worry. Don't worry. It's not cancelled. It might be, depending on if everyone's like, oh, thank God, on the text machine, on 9696.
Starting point is 00:35:46 Look, we don't often on this show talk about the real housewives of Orange County. No, because we largely don't care. No, we don't. And the show, from what I gather, is filled with drama and some fake storylines. But, I mean, some people like it. I mean, I'm being quite judgmental because i love myself some selling sunset i do love reality tv i'm not gonna lie but something about real house lives i'm like i don't want to watch them yeah um but there's a story out today which i think is uh
Starting point is 00:36:15 quite an important one to talk about it's about one of the housewives her name's bromwyn Windham-Burke. She's a star of the Orange County chain of the show. And this week, at 43 years old, she has come out as gay. Wow. She's been married for 20 years. She has seven kids. And in a very emotional interview, here's what she said. It's been something that I think everyone's kind of known has been coming, but I'm finally comfortable enough to say, I
Starting point is 00:36:47 like women. I'm gay. I'm a member of the LGBTQIA plus community. I'm a lesbian. Huge step to take at that stage of life. It is. I mean, can you imagine, like she said there, she's known forever.
Starting point is 00:37:03 But obviously there's been certain factors where she has felt like she hasn't been able to live her true self. But I mean, good for her that she has been able to do that. Do you know if she separated from her partner before she announced it? So, I don't know all the details. Her husband's
Starting point is 00:37:19 name is Sean. She does talk about him in the interview and says that she loves him dearly. He's still her person. They're still very good friends. Apparently he has been amazing about the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:37:36 And they're still making it work at home. What do you mean? They're still together as a family and they've got the kids. But they're not still in a relationship. No, I don't think so. I was going to say, well, they really are going the extra mile. I believe she's got a girlfriend, but they're still making it work at home as a family.
Starting point is 00:37:54 Right. She can't be a real housewife anymore. Yeah, well, yes, she can. Well, she has to get married first. I just do... It's 2020. You can't... Do you even have to be a housewife anymore?
Starting point is 00:38:06 It's part of the contract You have to have a house And be a wife That's on the billboard Yeah yeah Good on her Pretty amazing step to take You know
Starting point is 00:38:16 Yeah In your 40s Look you would know better than I do But do you think that deep down Obviously she's known for a long time but hasn't been comfortable to talk about it. Do you think her husband would have known? I think, you know, when you've been
Starting point is 00:38:31 married to someone for 20 years you have conversations. And maybe not in every relationship, but I believe he would have known for a fair while and they would have done what they had to do for their relationship. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:46 But I doubt he found out this week. It's really hard because I have friends who have been in relationships with people, heterosexual relationships with people, who turn this housewife's bed off. Yeah. Sounds weird talking about something like this. I've had friends who are in heterosexual relationships and a member of that relationship has come out as gay.
Starting point is 00:39:07 And it's really upsetting to the person who is not the one coming out because when they didn't see it coming, you know. But at the same time, you can be angry at the person because they're just coming to terms with who they are as a person. I think in society it is very difficult if you don't know exactly what that feels like as a person? I think in society it is very difficult. If you don't know exactly what that feels like to where you feel like you can't be your true self, and I'm telling you now, there's so many people out there who would have felt like that
Starting point is 00:39:34 at some point in their life for whatever reason that is, but especially people in the LGBTQI plus community. But it's hard, I agree, for both people in a situation like that. There would be a bit of anger and resentment coming from the other side if you think that they knew earlier and you're like, well, you went so far down the track with me in this relationship
Starting point is 00:39:55 and if you knew, then why didn't you tell me, you know? Yeah, but I think maybe, yeah, they hadn't come to terms with it. Yeah, right. So it's so hard to be angry at someone. Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. And I think in a situation like that, you can either choose to forgive and love someone
Starting point is 00:40:12 and realise the struggle that they've been through. Or just be an angry person. Or just be angry. But I think hard for both people, definitely. Yeah, right. Okay, well, who do you want to talk to this afternoon? I want to talk to people who have had a similar experience or know people who have been through a similar experience
Starting point is 00:40:29 who have come out later in life. And I want to talk to those people this afternoon. Sure, yeah. 0800 DIALZM, or you can text us on 9696. Is it you or is it someone you know that's come out like a fair bit later in life? Bree and Clint. Look, a little bit of a heavier topic for a Friday on our show,
Starting point is 00:40:48 but I feel like super important to talk about. There's a real Housewives of Orange County star by the name of Bronwyn Windham-Burke, who at the age of 43, after a 20-year marriage to a man, has come out as gay. It's been something that I think everyone's kind of known has been coming, but I'm finally comfortable enough to say I like women. I'm gay.
Starting point is 00:41:13 I'm a member of the LGBTQIA plus community. I'm a lesbian. Seven kids too. That was one of the more shocking bits, seven kids. They've got seven kids together, and her partner's been real supportive, but obviously something she They've got seven kids together. And her partner's been real supportive, but obviously something she's struggled with her whole life. You can hear in her voice.
Starting point is 00:41:30 The relief. How relieved she is. Oh, yeah. You can feel the weight lifting off her shoulders. You would feel like this because you are. You'd feel like a new person. You would because you can finally be the real you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:42 And be out in the world as the real you. The world watched Caitlyn Jenner go through it recently in a similar way as she declared herself as part of the LGBTQI community. That was a lot later in life. A lot later, yeah. She was in her 60s. Yeah, big time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:57 So we want to know this afternoon, did you come out later in life? Yeah, let's go to Joy first. Hi, Joy. Hey. How are you? How are you? Yeah, I'm not bad Joy first. Hi, Joy. Hey. How are you? Yeah, I'm not bad, thank you. How are you guys? Not too bad.
Starting point is 00:42:11 What happened with you? Is this something that you did? You came out later in life? It was actually my best friend. I had met her while she was a few years into her first relationship, actually, with her partner. It was a male at the time. But due to his religion, he didn't believe in that kind of stuff,
Starting point is 00:42:29 and she was becoming unhappy in the relationship. And he started thinking that she was turning gay with me. Oh, because you were close. Yeah, because she had a lot more fun with me than she did with him. Are you gay, Joy? No, I'm not. I'm straight. But then she ended up breaking up with him, and within a couple of weeks, she met a girl out in town
Starting point is 00:42:51 who lives in Australia. And then within a month or two, she ended up moving back over to Australia where she used to live and now lives with her. But it's been like a year, and they're still happy. Wow. Wow. And how did the ex-boyfriend take it?
Starting point is 00:43:08 Not that good actually. The friends that they had together were no longer her friends. They were just his and they all decided ignoring her and just stuck to him. That's so rough. He's trying to like get back in there trying to say that he misses her and all this stuff, but she lives over in Australia. She's gay. That sounds toxic.
Starting point is 00:43:28 Exactly. Yeah, just, I mean, move on with your life and, you know. You're barking up the wrong tree. Yeah, let her move on with hers. She obviously has already moved on. There's not much further out of your reach than someone who has come out and said, I'm not interested in people of your gender. So many texts are coming through on this.
Starting point is 00:43:46 And we really appreciate you sharing the stories because it is quite a personal topic. Someone texted through and they said, my gran was a lesbian living with her partner that we also called Nan. We all thought that they were longtime friends. But I found out when I was 14 that they were lesbians. I'm now 35. And my dad said that they've been together since before I was born. Wow that's incredible. That's like that show that was on Netflix. Yeah. About the two um baseball the woman who played baseball. Baseball yeah and they've been together for like 50 years or something. Yeah. Crazy like that. Annie's on
Starting point is 00:44:21 the phone. Hi Annie. Hi Annie. Hi. Hi how you? Good. What's your story about coming out later in life? Well, I've just turned 40, but two years ago when I was 38 and married to a man with three children, three boys, I came out. You came out? Wow. I came out, yes, lesbian. That's amazing, Annie Annie where did you obviously is this something that you've known for a long time or no I think I just slipped into the heterosexual norm yeah I mean you're
Starting point is 00:44:56 from the days in your schooling and your sex ed and everything like that you're taught man and woman this is what the norm is yeah and that's just who you become I suppose like that, you're taught man and woman, this is what the norm is. Yeah. And that's just who you become, I suppose. Congratulations. Are you happier?
Starting point is 00:45:17 It's not really I'm happier, it's I'm more whole as a person, I think. Got it. And you feel like you're actually living your true self. I know who I am. I know I understand myself a whole lot more. I'm a lot more settled within myself. What about the relationship dynamic? How's it with your ex? What's going on there? He was probably the most supportive of everyone, of course. He was heartbroken, of course, as we did have a really functional
Starting point is 00:45:44 marriage and we're a really functional marriage and were a really good team with the kids and whatnot. But he was the one that actually went out and got me like an LGBTQ counselor just so I could talk through a lot of the things that I needed to kind of go through in my head as to how I got to the point I was at and how I wanted to... Bloody hell, Annie, you picked a good one, didn't you? He sounds like an amazing human being. to the point I was at and how I wanted to... Bloody hell, Annie, you picked a good one, didn't you? Yeah, yeah, he was pretty amazing. He sounds like an amazing human being.
Starting point is 00:46:09 And sometimes he... It sounds like to me he put a lot of his feelings to the side and was like, someone I love needs my help here and I'm going to put them first. So that's amazing. Yeah, it was pretty unconditional. So without sort of his support, it would have been very hard. But I've heard nothing but um positive from everyone my family my friends good that's the way it should be yeah and i think
Starting point is 00:46:32 that's a great and can i just say thank you so much for calling the show because i think it's so important if there's some there's a lot of people that might be listening to this show who is having that same struggle with their identity and who they are, and to hear a story like yours where you can come out the other side and, you know, feel more settled and more yourself than you ever have been, it's so important. So we really appreciate that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:56 Totally. And that's something that I've learned from working with you, Brie, is that you can't live your life without being honest about who you actually are, you know? Yeah. It's not a sustainable thing because you shouldn't live your life without being honest about who you actually are. You know? You can't. It's not a sustainable thing because you shouldn't have to, but eventually it's going to eat away at you as well.
Starting point is 00:47:11 It does. It eats away at you. And I think the earlier, if you can have that courage to start living truly who you are, then you will be happier. Shit, this is wholesome, eh? It is. What a Friday! Hashtag wholesome, baby!

Starting point is 00:54:06 Yeah, let's go. S Club 7, who then became S Club 3. Still just as good. Yeah, but now they're just S Club. Yeah. Because it allows members to come and go. As they please. And there's no guarantee how many S Clubbers you'll get if you go to the gig.
Starting point is 00:54:23 Yeah. Because if they're S Club 3 and you show up and there's only two of them there, then you'll be like, oh, I want a 30% refund. Whereas the Venga Boys, still a strong four. Yep. Yeah. And not all boys either. No.
Starting point is 00:54:34 No. No. Two cowboys. Two. Two cowboys? Oh, no, one cowboy. That was like a Rocket Man. Was he a Rocket Man?
Starting point is 00:54:42 I don't know. They were amazing though, live. If you ever have the chance to see the Vengaboys, oh my God. So good. As soon as we get that vaccine, baby, I'm straight to a Vengaboys show. Next on the show, serves a big surprise. What is it? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:55:00 No, I got that. I thought you were just going to say some other elusive stuff. Ready? Say something without saying it. What else? What's up next? After the break, a groundbreaking bit of radio, which I don't want to say too much,
Starting point is 00:55:15 but it will be live after this. Let's see it. Brie and Clint. Clint, do you want another list? Love a list. Love a listicle. I just can't get enough of it. Love hearing stats in a specific order.
Starting point is 00:55:27 Yep. Trade Me have released stats in a specific order. Yeah. And it's stats about what people are searching in the lead up to Christmas. Love it. Yeah. Because this list serves as Christmas present inspo for me too. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:55:42 So let's rip into this. Apparently in the past week, users of Trade Me have searched for Christmas trees 10,000 times. That makes sense. Are we talking obviously fake Christmas trees? No, you can get a real one
Starting point is 00:55:56 on Trade Me. Can you? Yep. You can get anything on Trade Me, mate. I just usually go to the forestry. You go to the forest
Starting point is 00:56:03 and cut one down. That's what we did back home. But that's illegal. What about people have searched apparently 62,000 times. They've just searched for Christmas. Just the word Christmas? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:19 People are looking for Christmas. I think so. Maybe trying to get ideas. I just looked up real Christmas tree. How much? $69. You can get one in Auckland. Well, that's pretty good. I think that. Maybe trying to get ideas. I just looked up real Christmas tree. How much? $69. You can get one in Auckland. Oh, that's pretty good. I think that's pretty steep actually.
Starting point is 00:56:29 Because they die, don't they? Yeah. I think I'd just lure it in by the number 69. $69. I want you to deliver it to me and take it away when it's dead. And plant it in my backyard. Another thing people are really searching a lot for on Trade Me is iPhones.
Starting point is 00:56:48 14.5 thousand searches in the last week. Trade Me is the home of second-hand iPhones. It is the home. There's also a lot of people... And Facebook Marketplace is the home of stolen iPhones. There you go. Heard it here first. Outdoor adventure stuff like kayaks have been searched 30,000 times. Really?
Starting point is 00:57:05 Yep. Is it a kayaking kind of summer? Well, a lot of good places to kayak in New Zealand. Kayak's a great choice to buy until
Starting point is 00:57:12 you've got a kayak. And then you're like what do I do with this? Man, wish I had a motor. 13,000 searches for surfboards. Yep. 29,000
Starting point is 00:57:21 That's ambitious as well thinking you're going to get out there and surf. Yeah, I know but sometimes It's cool to just have one. Cool to have one so people come around. It's a good well, thinking you're going to get out there and surf. Yeah, I know, but sometimes. Cool to just have one. Cool to have one so people come around. It's a good wall piece.
Starting point is 00:57:29 Yeah. Isn't it? Good conversation starter. Yeah. Nearly 30,000 searches for mountain bikes in the last week. Oh, yeah. Great present, a mountain bike. Great present, yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:39 It is a great present. Buy them a chain as well so they can lock it up. Let's talk for the little ones. A lot of people have been searching Lego and trampolines. Still in fashion. Searched 17,000 times. Whoa, trampolines have been searched
Starting point is 00:57:54 54,000 times. Wow. Trampolines still in. Oh yeah. But they're like the real safety ones now, aren't they? Yeah, trampolines are a great babysitter. They take care of the kids for you. Pop them in, you zip down the thing. Those new ones, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:06 Zip them in, put the hose underneath it so they've got something to drink. You're good to go. Jet skis being searched a lot on Trade Team. Stop looking for jet skis. In the last week. No, jet skis, I say go for it. Waste of money.
Starting point is 00:58:18 No, 13,000 searches for the jet skis. And golf clubs, 12,000 searches for them. Oh, yeah. Let's finish it off with something you've been searching for but you haven't found yet, outdoor furniture. Oh, yes. 21,000 searches and that's because people are getting ready for the whole family to come over.
Starting point is 00:58:38 45 of those searches are me. Yeah. So there you go. My dream set is out there. There's a tough market at the moment because 21,000 other people are searching. Exactly right. And that's why my Freedom Furniture order is on back order until
Starting point is 00:58:50 March 2022. When summer's over. Yeah, right. It's the last day. It's the last day. There's no more roadie left. No. And to be honest, I don't have any more road in me. Yeah, I feel like a week is a good amount of time. Hey, remember how we've talked recently about how Taylor Swift is re-recording her early catalogue because the evil Scooter Braun
Starting point is 00:59:12 has purchased the rights to it. And won't sell it to her. He won't sell it to her. She's offered a bunch of money, hasn't she? Yeah, she has. And the argument is also should she have to? It's her music. She created it.
Starting point is 00:59:24 Why should he own it? He owns, I think it's the publishing rights, which means he has the ability to on-sell the music. He can get it licensed to movies. And also he just gets a huge take of the revenue that the music generates. Streams and all that. So she's gone, well, I own the lyrics.
Starting point is 00:59:42 I'm just going to recreate them. And so she is in the process of re-recording her entire early catalogue. We're talking Love Story. We're talking Teardrops on My Guitar. We're talking all that stuff. It means that there'll be
Starting point is 00:59:58 two versions on Spotify. And you will ever make the conscious choice as a Taylor Swift listener to listen to the Tay-Tay owned or the Scooter Braun owned. Which begs the question, would you listen to the new stuff if it didn't sound enough like the old stuff? Does she have to change it? Does she have to change the melody and all that?
Starting point is 01:00:16 No, no, no. And she's not trying to. I think she's going to try and record them as close to the original as possible. But we're talking 10, 13 years ago kind of thing. People's voices change. Absolutely. She doesn't sound the same now as she did back then. You can't recreate that moment, or can you?
Starting point is 01:00:31 The first clip of her re-recorded songs has come out. It has been licensed by her, not by Scooter Braun. Love story. A clip of it has been licensed for an ad for Match.com that's being made by Ryan Reynolds. Oh, yeah, that's good. Taylor Swift has written, the music is not done yet,
Starting point is 01:00:51 but I've let my friend Ryan Reynolds use a snippet for a lonesome commercial he wrote. Here's a sneak peek. So the ad is for Match.com, the dating website, and it's quite a good ad. The devil is dating 2020. Ryan Reynolds is a genius. He's a genius. He's the dating website. And it's quite a good ad. The devil is dating 2020. Ryan Reynolds is a genius. He's a genius.
Starting point is 01:01:08 He's an absolute genius. I'm going to play you the original of the love story. Okay, good. So we can hear what that sounds like first. And then I'll play you a clip of the new Taylor Swift love story. So here's the original. Like it more, right? What a b be alone. I'll be waiting. All this has to do is run. Wonderful, right?
Starting point is 01:01:28 What a banger. Amazing. You know it. Absolute banger. You love it? Oh, my God. I'm so nervous. Here's the new love story.
Starting point is 01:01:33 I'm so nervous. Okay, I'm ready. Romeo, save me. I've been feeling so alone. I keep waiting for you, but you never come. There's this in my head. I don't know what to think. He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring Oh, yeah. Pretty good, eh?
Starting point is 01:01:54 Pretty good. And you know what I like about it? That eagle soaring in there, it's not in there. That's in the ad, by the way. Right. I was like, that's a very aggressive eagle in the background. You know what I like about it? I feel like you can hear
Starting point is 01:02:07 how she's been through a lot of heartbreak and stuff. Oh, you got that out of her? Don't you reckon? Like, she's grown up. One is like when she was quite young and naive a little bit, and then now you get the more mature. Maybe it's going to be better. Maybe she's going to improve on her own music. I'm here for it. Okay, watch out for it. It's hopefully
Starting point is 01:02:24 going to be on her own music. I'm here for it. Okay, watch out for it. It's hopefully going to be finished soon.
