Hey, you over there, listening to the Bree and Clint podcast.
How you going?
Hey, you look nice today.
No, not you.
No, I'm sorry.
Not you.
Your mum.
Beside you, yeah.
What's your mum doing over there?
Yeah, what is she doing?
Oh, that's not your mum.
And what's the fragrance she's wearing?
It smells a little bit off, to be honest.
Britney Spears.
Mothballs.
Hey, let's do a birthday banger.
International.
It's my birthday. It's my birthday, let's do a birthday banger. International. It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Free and close.
Birthday banger.
The podcast.
Yeah.
Yep.
Only on the Friday podcast, we go global.
For people who aren't in New Zealand and can't usually play birthday banger,
so these have all been sourced from our podcast group.
Yeah, that's correct.
Let's kick it off with fellow Queenslander, Stacey Nansen.
She was born in Queensland, as I said before, on the 16th of October 1986.
So she was 16 in 2002.
And this is Stacey's birthday banger.
Yeah! birthday banger.
What is this?
Are you joking?
Scooter?
I don't know.
I know the original of this song that they've...
There's a tune.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What year is this?
2002. Oh yeah, that makes sense. What year is this? 2002.
Oh, yeah, that makes sense.
About the same time as Sandstorm.
I love that one.
Okay, next up is Ryan Bland from Wilmington, North Carolina.
Oh, I love North Carolina.
Such a beautiful part of the world.
He was born on the 31st of December, 1989.
So he was 16 in 2005.
And Ryan, this was topping the Charts on your birthday.
I don't mind some late career, Mariah Carey.
I quite like this.
Who was this about?
Don't forget about us.
Yeah, Google it.
Yeah, Google it.
I'd be interested to know.
There's that album that was about her time with Eminem, right?
Well, that song at least.
Why Are You So Obsessed With Me?
Yes.
Yeah.
This song I don't believe is about Eminem.
No.
It is about Eminem. No. It is about...
Song facts.
Five seconds.
The internet in here is crap.
It's not me.
It's the internet.
The last person on the international birthday banger today
is podcast superfan Dylan Hawkins.
Oh, Dylan Hawkins, the big man, makes an appearance.
He's a Kiwi, but he comments on every single video we ever post,
so we have to do his birthday banger.
Super, super supportive.
Dylan, you were born on the 11th of May, 1992,
which means you were 16 in 2008,
and this was top of the charts on that day.
How good is the Usher scene in Hustlers?
Oh yeah, that is very cool.
When Usher shows up to the strip club and JLo's dancing.
Yes.
That's a good birthday banger.
I still can't find it, you know.
Who the song was about?
No.
Maybe it's not about anyone.
Maybe she didn't write it, so it's not about anyone.
Don't forget about us.
Okay, what's the winner of birthday banger today?
The Logical Song by Scooter, Don't Forget About Us by Raya Kari,
or Usher, Loving This Club.
The Logical Song for me.
Okay, here we go.
Do we have it? Do we have? No, we've just The logical song for me. Here we go. Do we have it?
Do we have?
No, we've just got this bit of it.
Here we go.
Enjoy what you can.
I think this might have been big in Aussie.
Do you know this?
Yeah.
It reminds me of those guys with the big flare pants with the reflectors on them and they're
like doing the shuffle dance in the clubs.
Reminds me of Crazy Frog.
Bam, bam.
All right, here we go.
What is that?
Was that a scooter?
A motorbike?
Okay, everybody, here's the podcast.
Hey, Google, what's the time?
It's 3pm, give or take a minute.
Alexa, play ZM on iHeartRadio.
Playing ZM on iHeartRadio.
Hey, Siri, when are Brie and Clint on?
Brie and Clint are on air in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Good morning, everybody.
Welcome to the show.
Brie and Clint, it's a Friday afternoon.
Feels like a Friday.
Yeah, what's the Friday feeling you've got?
Tired.
Nah, it's been a long week and I'm ready for a beer,
but the show we have today is going to be awesome before I have that beer.
But the show must go on, unfortunately.
Unfortunately, so let's get into it.
Quick one's a good one, right?
Let's make it snappy.
No, it's going to be a great show.
We've got Friday Okie coming up at 5 o'clock today.
I love it when these happen, and we've only done it once before.
It's a duet between you and I.
That's right.
What's the other duet we did?
We did Time of My Life from Dirty Dancing.
Oh, yes.
I do recall.
Today we do Elton John and little-known female artist Kiki D.
Don't Go Breaking My Heart.
That's coming up at 5 o'clock.
Yes.
Also, we've got Peking Duck on the show, kind of.
Kind of.
We've done, you know, just a classic friendly neighbourhood stitch-up again.
And unfortunately, Georgia, who does the day show here at ZM,
was the victim of that prank.
It's a classic stitch-up.
It's a classic stitch-up.
She took it really well. You've got to
appreciate a classic stitch up even when
it's performed on you. All we're going to say is
is that we found
a Peaking Duck Adam look
alike and we sent
him into the interview. How did that go down?
Well you'll have to be listening. The boys
play Auckland's Town Hall tonight
it's a full show. It's not a DJ
show it's their full live show.
And there's still some tickets available for that as well.
Obviously, we've got ZM's Secret Sound coming up
at four and five o'clock as well.
It's a huge show.
There's a lot on the way today.
But let's start with some Peaking Duck.
This is high.
Bree and Clint, Friday afternoon, ZM.
Bree and Clint.
We've already told you we've got a stitch-up
that we've performed on Georgia from ZM
where we've replaced a member of Peking Duck with a doppelganger essentially, right?
Yeah, the real Adam with a look-alike Adam.
This is happening a bit at the moment because there's a story out of the States today too
about a flight attendant by the name of Christine Mathis
who bears, I believe, a striking resemblance
to the princess formerly known as Meghan Markle.
Yes.
Well, she's still known as Meghan Markle.
I was going to say, isn't her name still Meghan Markle?
The Meghan Markle formerly known as Princess Meghan Markle.
Is that right?
So she's not a princess anymore?
No, she decided not to be one.
Yeah, technically, no.
She's not even royal.
Royal.
Yeah.
This person looks so much like Meghan Markle that she decided not to be one. Yeah, technically, no. She's not even royal. Royal. Yeah.
This person looks so much like Meghan Markle that customers have stopped her
and said things like,
why are you a flight attendant?
Aren't you rich?
Why are you on a plane?
Aren't you married to Prince Harry?
And she also has had issues
going through airport security
because they've not believed her
when she's handed over her passport,
which said Christine Mathis, and they've gone, no, no, no, no, I've seen the news.
You're Meghan Markle.
Do you reckon she looks that much like her, though?
I reckon she looks enough like her.
I think she looks like her, but I wouldn't be like, nah, I'm convinced that that is her.
What about that picture right there?
That blue one?
That one?
In moments, she...
But I'm saying in real life when you got to see like...
I've never seen her in real life.
No, but I'm saying that's where people are mistaking her for Meghan Markle.
Go up to the top of her Instagram.
Ben, how many followers does she have?
She has...
Oh, only 1,800 followers.
Okay, so it hasn't blown up.
She has registered herself as an official Meghan Markle doppelganger,
which apparently is something you can do.
She's had a photo shoot with...
Is that a little bit like got tickets on yourself?
Yeah.
Like a little bit?
A little bit.
Or it's a little bit like, oh, I'm not going to...
If you were Meghan Markle, it's a little bit like,
cool, I'm not going to meet this person now.
Yeah, right.
Right?
It's a little bit single white female.
Yeah, a little bit.
She's also had a photo shoot. It's all a bit of fun. Like, I don't? It's a little bit single white female. Yeah, a little bit. She's also had a
photo shoot. It's all a bit of fun.
Like, I don't mean to cast too many aspersions.
She's also had a... Oh, she's writing her 15 minutes.
She's had a photo shoot with the official Prince Harry
lookalike. Oh, right.
That's cool. That's kind of funny. Yeah.
And she has said that
she's an aspiring
TV actress and
she'd love to play Meghan Markle in a movie about Meghan Markle.
Well, I mean, that would be the ideal role for her.
You know who'd be the perfect Meghan Markle to play Meghan Markle in a movie?
Meghan Markle.
Correct, Meghan Markle.
The actress.
The actress, Meghan Markle.
I mean, 50 Cent did it.
Eminem did it.
Eminem did it, yeah.
Why can't Meghan Markle do it?
Yeah.
We wanted to know this afternoon, does this happen to you?
Do you look enough like somebody like, you're not out there saying it,
but people go to you, oh, my God, I thought you were such and such, right?
You're not out there saying it,
but you're going to call the radio now and boast about it.
Yeah, fair enough.
Do you get anyone bad, though?
Like sometimes you get bad people.
When I was in San Francisco last week with Samsung,
I went to rent a bike to ride across
the Golden Gate Bridge
and the guy goes to me,
do you ever get told that you look like someone?
And I was like, oh God, not this again.
Ricky Gervais. And I said, do you
think I look like Ricky Gervais? And he goes,
that's it! Oh my God!
Oh my God! Yeah, Ricky Gervais.
I don't see that at all. Thank you, I appreciate
the fact that you don't see it. Yeah, I think that's harsh for you.
Thank you.
Yeah, it is.
You don't look like him.
Yeah, thanks.
I always thought more of like a Calvin Harris, but.
Now you're pushing it.
Oh, $800 at him this afternoon.
We want to know who you get mistaken for.
Who's your famous doppelganger?
Yeah, you can text us also on 9696.
Brianne Clint.
He's a lady who looks so much like Meghan Markle
that she is being mistaken for her, and she's an air hostess.
I get what you're saying.
Like, the fact that she's serving the drinks should...
You'd probably give it away.
Should give it away, yeah.
That it's not her.
She said she's been getting it since Suits in 2011.
Really? So she's been getting it a lot.
But it's intensified since she married Prince Harry.
Of course, because she's gotten more media.
More profile, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So we want to know on 0800 dial ZM this afternoon,
who do you get mistaken for?
Let's start with Lisa.
Hey, Lisa.
Hello.
Lisa, who do you get mistaken for?
Our Prime Minister.
Do you?
Do you?
The Thunder.
What a great compliment.
Could be good, could be bad.
Oh. Depending on, you know. Depending on your politics. Depending on the people that are recognising you? Jacinda. What a great compliment. Could be good, could be bad. Oh.
Depending on, you know.
Depending on your politics.
Depending on the people that are recognising you, you know.
Lisa, have you seen the news today that Jacinda is on the cover of Time magazine?
Oh, I should buy the magazine.
You should, yeah.
No, no, you should stage your own one.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that's good stuff.
Yeah, we should get you in and redo it.
Actually, Lisa, can we get you in and just use you for a few things
that we want changed in the government?
We'll just film a few things and see if people buy it.
Yeah, why not?
Lisa, we've always wanted time with the Prime Minister
and we don't really get any interviews with her.
Maybe we could just, can we get Lisa in once a week and talk to her?
We've had Paula Bennett in here,
but we can't get the Prime Minister in here.
Yeah, come on down, Lisa.
We'll put that on the maybe part.
We'll put that on the, yeah.
There's a few people on the text machine.
There's a lot of really good ones.
Someone said that I was spotted in a supermarket
and got told I looked like Adele
prior to her weight loss.
Ha ha ha, she's a babe though.
Oh.
She is a babe.
No, no, she is a babe.
Prior to weight loss or before.
She's always been a babe.
She's always been a babe.
Who chucks in the prior to her weight loss comment though?
She's obviously funny.
No, I mean the person who said it to you.
No, I think she said that on the text.
Oh, I thought you said someone had come up to her in the supermarket and go,
you look like Adele before she lost all the weight.
No, I think this person said it before Adele lost all the weight.
That's what she meant.
You look like Justin Bieber after he stopped being hot, you know?
Petra, hey, Petra.
Hey, how are you going?
Good.
Petra, who do you look like?
Well, a few people have told me I look like Scarlett Johansson.
What the?
Really?
Yeah, right.
But she's blonde and I'm brunette.
So, I mean, I don't get mistaken for her,
but people have just come across as this.
Said that you look like her.
Are you tempted to go blonde?
Just to say.
Nah.
Nah?
I really want to see what you look like now.
I really want to see what you look like.
Do you agree with people?
Do you think you kind of look like Scar Jo?
No, not at all.
Right, okay.
Well, I don't want to see the picture then.
I mean, could be a lot worse.
He's hung up on Scarlet.
No, sorry, picture go again.
I said someone stopped me for a photo at a bar once.
Oh, yeah, they'll do.
Really?
Yeah.
Okay, any other good ones?
Yeah, someone just texted
through and they said,
I've gotten David Bowie
for the last 30 years.
Yeah, that's good.
Someone else said,
Britney Spears,
but I think I look
nothing like her.
Oh, this one's a good one.
Someone said,
my closest cousin gets told
that she looks like
Angelina Jolie all the time.
See, these are all
really good ones.
And me over here
looking like Ricky Gervais.
Well, I got told I look like Russell Crowe from Tom Sainsbury's.
Bree and Clint.
It's time for the latest.
From iHeartRadio.
This is...
The latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
That's the new rock and roll intro I'm working on.
That's the ACDC version.
Welcome to the show, Dean McCarthy.
Hi, guys.
Hello, everyone. You're doing my MC Hi, guys. Hello, everyone.
You're doing my MC voice, Clint.
Yeah, that's Bree's onstage voice.
Hey, Dean, tell us the latest on Joaquin Phoenix,
or as producer Ben called him before, Joaquin Phoenix.
Joaquin.
I love Joaquin.
I think it's a great name, too.
I like that.
Yeah, it's a great name. Here's like that. Yeah, it's a great name.
Here's what he's done.
He's gone and rescued a cow and her calf,
which is the daughter or son of a cow,
just for those of you playing at home.
He has gone and rescued these two animals from a slaughterhouse.
And, you know, this is probably not a big surprise
if you listen to his Oscar speech where he talks about this kind of thing.
Have a listen.
Here's a little grab from Joaquin Phoenix winning best actor at the Oscars.
Check this out.
We feel entitled to artificially inseminate a cow.
And when she gives birth, we steal her baby,
even though her cries of anguish are unmistakable.
And then we take her milk that's intended for a calf
and we put it in our coffee and our cereal.
Yeah, it was intense.
Yeah.
It was an intense speech.
And now he's put his money where his mouth is
and he's gone to a slaughterhouse here in California,
actually sat down with the owner of the slaughterhouse
and freed the cow and the calf
through a company called, what are they called?
LA Animal Save.
So it's like a group of people that go and save animals.
And he saved the two animals.
Yeah, right.
That's what he did.
At least he's putting his money where his mouth is, I guess, right?
He's walking the walk, and he's talking the talk as well.
Yeah.
He's always been a bit of an interesting guy, hasn't he?
Yeah.
Like, I mean, we've seen him in a lot of different films, obviously,
and he's finally done, you know, this movie, The Joker,
where he's very dark in it.
He's very unusual, and I think him dark in it. He's very unusual.
And I think him as a person, he's quite unusual.
Yeah, it was the role he was born to play.
Oh, he was born to play that role, for sure.
Yeah.
Okay, that's the latest.
Joaquin Phoenix has adopted the daughter or son of a cow.
That's Dean McCarthy, our Hollywood correspondent.
The latest is brought to you by Samsung.
If you pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra before March 6th,
you'll get bonus Galaxy Buds Plus as well.
I'm rocking my Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra.
You've got it already early.
Man, the photos are good.
Absolutely loving it.
Every week we get our best bits.
Mostly worst.
Bestish bits.
That's how we should call it, bestish bits.
We can't call it the best bits because then what if people listen and they go,
oh, girl, is that the best bits?
True.
I was taught this at a very young age.
Set the bar low and that way just flop over it and that's considered a success.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Shoot for the ground and even if you fall over,
you've still achieved your goal.
Being the underdog is the best thing ever.
It honestly is.
I don't know.
I've never been the overdog
to compare it to.
Yeah, right.
This is all building up
to the fact that
our producers put together
the high-low for the week.
Producer being high.
Hey, guys.
Yeah, the high points
and the low points.
Is this your favourite
to put this together every week?
I always see you
and you're like,
can't wait to put it together.
I don't mind putting it together.
It's a bit of fun.
I quite like audio editing.
Cool.
But this week's is really, really bad.
So just, you know, well.
Okay.
Oh, you're being hard on yourself.
He's setting the bar low.
Oh.
Under promise.
It's pretty bad.
I bought it.
No, under promise, over deliver.
Just listen.
It's pretty bad.
Okay.
Previously with ZN's Brinkley. bad, so. I bought it. No, under promise, over deliver. Just listen, it's pretty bad. Okay. Previously with Zed In's Brian Clint.
Hey, guys.
Welcome to yet another week of Brian Clint's highs and lows,
all the high points of the week and the low points of the week.
Off the back of a viral clip online of a man fake crying,
Brian Clint decided to do their own cry-off.
Three, two, one, action.
Sorry. It's just... Action Sorry
It's just
I just
I thought you would go first
And then I would have the opportunity
To just go
I'm not going to do it
And then just start the ads
You okay?
Yeah I'm good yeah
Yeah
Very good
Scene
Okay scene
Very good
So
I was so looking forward to
Seeing Elton John
And now He's He's changed And I So I was so looking forward to seeing Elton John.
And now he's changed an eye.
And I'm never going to get to see Ricky.
Oh!
Oh!
Why?
Damn you, Elton!
Okay, that's good.
And this week's Caller of the Week is James,
who called up when we asked,
what piece of clothing do you put on first?
Hey, Ben, he wasn't just Caller of the Week.
He was Kiwi Caller of the Week, as made up by Bree.
Hi, James.
Tell us, are you the same socks on first or something different?
No, I run jandals.
You're lying.
You get out of the shower and put some jandals on. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because my shower has kind of been like an outhouse.
Right.
I had to go for a bit of a walk to my house.
It's an old farm cottage.
It's an environment.
I'm always out in the shower, so I need a cold drink.
So I've got to go to the fridge.
And, you know, I have my cold drink and I stand outside and air dry it.
How free, James.
You just sound like the freest bloke and I love it.
Also. I live in New Zealand. I'm a young single guy in New Zealand just sound like the freest bloke, and I love it. Also...
I live in New Zealand.
I'm a young, single guy in New Zealand.
I can't have it any better, can I?
James, this is crazy, but you've actually picked up the award
for the most Kiwi phone call of the week.
Yeah, well done.
Which is great.
It's a prestigious award.
Nice work.
Do I get anything?
Yeah, you get a slap on the back and a good on you, mate.
Yeah, mate.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Cheers. Cheers. Cheers good on you, mate. Yeah, mate. Oh, cheers. Cheers. Cheers.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Cheers. Cheers.
On you, mate.
And finally, Bree learned something new about the male anatomy this week.
What would you rather be bit on the penis or be bit on the ball?
To be fair, I'd rather be bit on the S.
What's the S?
The S.
Jesus Christ.
Wait, the S is different to the B?
The B's sit in the S.
Wait, the skin has its own name?
Yeah. I just thought the B's were the S. The B's sit in the S. Wait, the skin has its own name? Yeah.
I just thought the B's were the S.
The B's sit inside the S.
Wait, so the skin on the B's is called the S?
Yes, correct.
It's its own thing?
Yeah, yeah.
It's not the same?
No, no.
Really?
Yeah.
Someone would think we're talking about
like salt and peppering food or something right now.
No, no, no.
We're talking about male genitalia.
And that's another week of highs and lows.
Join us same time next week.
I love how disappointed producer Ellie sounds at the end of that.
She's like, join us the same time next week.
Hey, look, we get up really early in the morning too.
Then we come in about 6am and we knock it out the park every week.
You do not.
Fletchmore and Megan are in here at 6am. We're going to another studio, mate.
That's Peking Duck.
They're playing tonight in Auckland at the Town Hall.
The tickets are available right now from Ticketmaster.
Oh, Clinton, Clinton, Clinton.
Our friendly neighbourhood pranking has struck again.
And the victim this round was ZM Day show host Georgia Burt.
Hi, Georgia.
Hello, guys.
That was classic.
First of all, before we say anything, are we still friends?
Of course.
I knew you'd be like super keen on it and love it.
You're someone who can take a joke really well.
So tonight Peking Duck play the Auckland Town Hall
and we had a special interview organised
with them. Well, technically
Georgia had a special interview
put on her at the last minute
yesterday and Georgia
was very confused. She's like, why am I interviewing
Peking Duck at the last minute? Well, that's
because we faked it.
It was so great though because I was asking you guys so
many questions about this afternoon. I was like, so you're playing
a game. I'm going to chat to them about the show tonight.
Sweet.
All good.
Super professional.
We were getting nervous that we were going to blow our own cover.
Literally, we were like, stop talking to us.
Here's what we did.
Directly outside the ZM Studios is a coffee shop.
Inside that coffee shop is a man called Troy who bears a striking resemblance to Adam from Peking Duck.
Yeah, he's got the same curly hair, same kind of face structure.
Georgia sometimes gets coffee from Troy.
I do.
Sometimes you go out and...
That's the best bit.
I get a pastrami toasty.
It's so good.
He told us.
We came up with the brilliant idea.
We wonder if we swapped out the real Adam from Peking Duck
for the fake one, Troy, from the coffee store,
and we threw them both into the interview with you.
Would you notice?
This is the moment that the actual Adam walks into the studio
to replace fake Adam while he's already being interviewed by Georgia.
It's the best place to party in New Zealand,
so tonight's the night.
I knew it! I bloody knew it!
I got it from here.
Thanks, bro. Yeah, you got it from here. Cheers. I bloody knew it i bloody knew it i got it i got it from here thanks bro yeah you got it
cheers i bloody knew it yeah yeah as you guys are supposed to be i'm supposed to stitch you up
what did you mean you meant to stitch us up i thought i was supposed to be funnier than i am
you just got got so you're like I had something really good planned.
Don't question her logic. She's just seen
two Adams from Peaking Dark at the same
time. Her brain is having a meltdown.
The best bit is the whole thing's been
caught on camera. We've got close-ups
of your facials as he walks in.
It's brilliant. And with your permission
we'd love to post the whole prank on our
Facebook page. Oh absolutely.
You've got to get Peaking Duck to share it, though,
because I tell you what,
not only does he look like Adam from Peaking Duck,
stitch me up with Dean Lewis,
because I'd get stuck either way.
Stop picking all the hot dudes.
We're not going to send a bunch of hot dudes
into your studio, Georgia.
Troy also looks like Dean Lewis, though.
Does he?
Oh, yeah, kind of.
Oh, that's what you're saying.
Right.
Here's the thing, Georgia. You don't get to plan your own prank. Okay, Oh, that's what you're saying. Right. Here's the thing, Georgia.
You don't get to plan your own prank.
Okay, well, that takes away from what it actually is, a prank.
We're going to get the video of the whole prank up to our Facebook page
as soon as it's edited.
Tonight sometime.
Hopefully.
Thanks, Georgia.
Thanks for being a good sport.
Honestly, loved it.
Keep doing it.
If you want to see Peking Duck, like we said, Auckland Town Hall tonight,
Ticketmaster, Bree's going. You'll tonight, Ticketmaster, Brie's going.
You'll see Brie there.
Yeah, Producer Ben's going.
Producer Ellie's going too.
And they're shouting drinks at anyone who comes over and says,
Man, you're right.
Brie and Clint.
Time is waiting.
You only get one second of a song.
No hesitating.
You only got one second.
One second
Or a week, Brie and I go head to head in a song guessing challenge.
It used to be we would do it separately, but now let's do it together, babes.
Yeah, well, I lost so badly the other way, so this makes it maybe a little bit more fair.
We literally had to reinvent the competition.
Absolutely.
So all you have to do is pick who's going to win the game before we play.
Let's start with Olivia.
Hi, Olivia.
Hi.
Who's your choice?
I'm going to go with you, Clint.
Okay, I got you.
Good decision, in my opinion.
No worries.
And Sianay.
Sianay, hi.
Hi, guys.
Hi, Sianay.
You never know.
The underdog could have it this week.
No, you've got to breathe good, Noah.
Yes, girl. I'm going to do my absolute best, okay? this week. No, you've got to breathe good, Noah. Yes, girl.
I'm going to do my absolute best, okay?
Like we said before, no one wants to be the overdog.
No.
Although.
Oh, no.
Or the up dog.
Or the up dog.
Yeah.
What's up, dog?
Nothing.
What's up with you?
She scores.
Producer Ellie, is there a theme this week?
No, I couldn't be bothered.
Okay.
Sorry.
That's okay. That's okay. We both have buzzers. Fair enough. Do these need a test first? No, I couldn't be bothered. Okay. Sorry. That's okay.
That's okay.
We both have buzzers.
Fair enough.
Do these need a test first?
Yeah, do you want a test?
We'll do a test.
All right.
Okay, Brie.
Okay, it did come up on my laptop, I promise.
I literally, every week, call Producer Ben who does tests on them.
But mine is always lagging for something.
There's a comedic delay.
Let's see if my one's got a delay.
I'll count down so people know when I'm going to hit it.
I'm going to take a wild guess and say there's no delay for yours.
Well, let's check.
Three, two, one.
That was perfect.
Why don't we call the Easy Buzzer Company and check what's wrong with them?
Three, two, one.
Oh, there we go.
Okay.
It just did warming up.
Just touch and go.
All right, so I just need the song title and the artist.
If there's a feature artist, don't worry.
Just the main artist, okay?
No, I'm just, okay.
All right.
All right.
I was planning on doing all of them, so that's good to know, really.
Do you need to know who produced the song and who did the marketing for it?
Or what year it was made?
All right, all right.
Okay, Ben, when you're ready.
That was Clint.
Who's that?
That is Camila Cabello, Havana Unana.
That's correct.
I knew that one too.
It's iconic.
Produced by Joel Little at Route...
No, I don't know.
Oh, nice work.
All right, 1-0.
It's first to three, by the way.
Get the buzzers ready.
Hey, thanks, Brie.
I hadn't done it.
It's all right, mate.
Okay, Ben, next one.
Clint.
That is Moo and Snake Hips Don't Leave.
That is incorrect.
Do you want a free guess?
Can I hear the first start?
I'll allow it.
Okay.
Stop.
I know what it is!
I know what it is. I know what it is.
Nah, you're going to have to play some more.
No, no.
Do we buzz in again?
Okay, I'm going to have to reset the buzzers.
We're going to play again.
Yep.
Peking duck.
Take me over.
Yes.
No.
It's not.
Sorry.
It's not.
It's not, but it's the correct answer.
Surely I get the point now after he's had two wrong.
Do you know the song?
I'm going to say.
What does that mean?
Me just doing something very illegal.
I know what it is.
I know what it is.
Is it L.A.B. in the air?
No, it's Peaking Dark.
It's Peaking Dark.
Now it's my turn again.
It's my turn.
Peaking Dark, hi.
I don't know who to give that to.
No one, I think.
I think that's a no one. Okay.
Oh, then I screwed it up too.
All right, well, just, that's void.
Okay, next song.
Oh, buzzers ready.
Nice and free.
Do a leaper.
Don't start now.
That is not, yes, it's, yeah.
Don't, yeah, nice. Don't stop now, but yes. Yeah. What did I say? Don't start Now. That is not, yes, it's, yes. Don't show up. Don't, yeah, nice.
Don't stop now.
But yes, yeah.
What did I say?
Don't start now.
Or what did you say?
Huh?
You said it right.
I think I said don't start now.
Hey, hey, can everyone just take a breath, please?
I know, I think I'm really intense.
I'm sorry.
What's the score?
Okay, it's now one all.
It's one all?
It's one all.
And it's first to three?
That's correct.
Okay, let's go. Okay. Okay, next's now one all. It's one all. It's one all. And it's first to three? That's correct. Okay, let's go.
Okay.
Okay, next one, Ben.
Clint.
These buzzers suck so much.
That's The Weeknd.
And I know she'll get the best of me this one, I know.
And I know she'll get the best of me this one we'll never know. And I know she'll get the...
All right, you got it?
You got me an answer there?
Me, me, me, don't worry at all.
Damn it, I got no more.
5, 4, 3, yeah, okay.
It's the weekend.
Do you know what it is, Bree?
At all.
Nah.
Do you want to keep playing it, Ben?
It doesn't matter.
I still know the song.
I can't get past that part of the chorus.
But I love it.
About it.
Clint.
Yes.
The Weeknd, I Can't Feel My Face.
That is correct.
Nice work.
I'm having a ripping game, by the way, guys.
Just wanted to point that out.
It's only 2-1.
It's fine.
You can catch points.
I definitely didn't get that one point.
All right.
Next song, Vinny.
Yes.
I know this one.
What is it?
Demi Lovato, Cool For The Summer.
Yes.
Nice.
Well done.
After three hours, we have arrived at tie-break.
If you're still with us, it is now midnight.
All right, let's go for the tie-break, Ben.
Next song.
Yes, Clint.
Alanis Morissette.
Hey-ya-ya,-ya-oh An old man
That's ironic
That is correct
Clint has taken it
On your wedding day
It's topical because she's coming
Yes, exactly right
That was the theme
Olivia, congratulations
We've won you some free mobile fuel
Are you still there?
Are you still there?
She's still there
Amazing
I'm so happy.
Well, we're all older and wiser after that game. I know. I'm
definitely older. Let's go to a break.
Bree and Clint.
I came across this story last
night and one of my favourite
football players has always been Cristiano
Ronaldo. Oh, yeah.
For a few reasons. I think when
I was younger, probably cause he was so,
so attractive. Um, but also I just love the way he plays the game. He's a really,
he's one of the best players in the world. Um, but the stories come out about, uh, him and his
partner. So he, I don't know if they're married. I think they are married. Um, they've got a child
together. Um, and her name is Georgina Rodriguez,
so they mustn't be married.
And it talks about how much money he gives her a month in pocket money.
Pocket money?
Well, that's what they've called it in this article.
And, yeah, pretty much it says here to allow her to live the life
of a rich and famous football wag.
Okay.
So how much do you think Cristiano Ronaldo,
one of the richest and most highly paid athletes in the world,
gives his baby mama?
I feel like it needs to be relative to how much he earns.
Okay, well, I can tell you that.
How much money does Cristiano Ronaldo make each year?
Well, just from the football club he plays for,
which is Juventus at the moment, he earns $56.9 million a year.
Oh, okay.
Plus on top of that, endorsements.
Forbes reported that he earned last year $170 million.
Okay.
Then he needs to be giving his wife.
Is it wife?
I'd say, yeah, well, she's had a baby with him.
You know.
And he's with her.
Yeah, they're together.
He needs to be giving his baby mama,
because she's got to achieve a certain lifestyle too.
Like she's got to be keeping up with him.
He can't be rocking up in a brand new Lamborghini
and she's catching an Uber X, you know.
Yeah.
I'm going to say he needs to be giving her $50,000 a month pocket money.
All right.
Cristiano Ronaldo gives his partner, Georgina Rodriguez,
$162,000 a month in pocket money.
Oh, shit.
So they have a child together and then she also raises his other three children.
Okay.
Oh, wow.
Oh, wow. Okay.
Yeah. Oh hike it up then.
I was impressed. She's got a tough job. I was impressed
but if she's looking after all of his children
she needs more money.
I mean it's interesting to me so he
has his fortune and then she's given that.
Yes. Do they like
do they go halves when they go out for dinner?
He's like half of this needs to come out of your pocket
money. I doubt it.
I don't think so.
She also earns her own money as well.
She does social media stuff.
She's got 16.5 million followers on Instagram
and she earns quite a lot of money through that.
And she does her own bits and pieces as well,
but that's how much money.
She's independent, but she gets her.
Good for her.
Would you like to be a kipped woman?
No.
I don't think so.
I mean I think it's, you know, if that's their relationship,
I think that's lovely and she's looking after the kids
so she's doing just as much work.
Yeah.
But I feel like I want to provide.
I don't believe you.
Cristiano Ronaldo comes to town, he goes, Brie.
Oh, if it's Cristiano Ronaldo, then absolutely.
Quit ZM.
Quit Celebrity Treasure Island.
I'll give you $160,000 a month to spend on whatever you want,
and you don't have to do anything.
You're telling me your pride would stand in the way,
and you'd go, no, I need to do my own hustle.
I've got to get a paper on it or something.
I feel like I'd be blinded by him.
I'd be like, okay, whatever you say.
Okay, so circumstantial.
If it was him, yeah.
He's adorable.
All right, fair enough.
But it made me think, like, does this happen, obviously,
they're, you know, the exception.
Like, that's crazy money that he's earning.
They're rich and famous and all that kind of stuff.
Yeah.
But does this happen in kind of normal relationships?
Well, when your partner gives you an allowance.
Yeah, like is anyone giving their partner an allowance?
Is anyone receiving an allowance listening right now as well?
Yeah, are you the person on the receiving end?
Because maybe your partner works away, like in the mines or something,
and the bulk of your money gets put into a savings account
or into the mortgage or whatever,
but they portion off a certain amount of their income each week
for you as you're spending money.
Yeah.
Yeah.
How does that happen?
Oh, maybe.
I mean, you're kind of doing that in your relationship at the moment.
Not really, because your wife is obviously at home raising your daughter.
She would not like it referred to as me giving her an allowance.
But she's not.
But technically, you guys are living off your wage at the moment, right?
We have a budget.
Yeah. Well, we have We have a budget. Yeah.
Well, we have to have a budget, yeah.
But not the same thing.
We give ourselves an allowance.
You guys give yourself an allowance out of your wage at the moment.
Yeah.
Kind of.
Yeah.
Because she's raising all of my children.
And doing most of, yeah, you know, she's doing her part.
Yeah.
But I want to know from people, 0800DIAL ZM, or you can text us on 9696.
Does your partner give you pocket money?
Love to know about how that works.
Do they give you an allowance?
How much?
Why?
Maybe they're just rich.
Yeah, maybe.
Give us a call, 0800 dial ZM.
Kia ora, this is Toby Mann.
Hi, I'm the host of Gone By Lunchtime, a podcast for the spin-off podcast network all about politics and politicians,
with me, Annabel Lee--Mather and Ben Thomas,
careering wildly from the very serious to the very ridiculous.
It's not for everyone.
I don't think it would be Ellen's cup of tea,
but you, I reckon, will love it.
Go on by lunchtime.
Grab one now wherever you get your podcasts.
Brian Clint.
Tell you who's not sad, Cristiano Ronaldo's partner.
Yeah, it came out yesterday that his partner, Georgina Rodriguez,
who they have a two-year-old daughter together,
and she also raises his other three children,
he said that he gives her pocket money, they're calling it,
$162,000 a month.
Do you think that's enough?
I know it's a lot of money.
I mean, it's a lot of money.
I know it's a lot of money,
but you said he made $190 million last year.
$170 million last year.
$170.
I mean, to be honest,
I think if she asked for something,
he would get it for her.
Oh, you mean like if she goes,
I need a new iPhone.
Yeah, or I need this car.
Like he would buy it for her.
What did you say?
How much?
$160 what?
$170 million.
No, no.
How much does she get a month?
$162,000 a month.
How much is that a week? $162,000 a month. How much is that a week?
$162,000.
Well, a year, that's...
A lot.
$1.9 million.
Okay.
Out of the $170,000 he earned.
Yeah.
But, I mean, he's probably got to pay for the groceries.
Oh, heaven forbid.
How much is he spending on groceries?
$10 million a week?
She's got over...
Put it this way. She's got over, put it this way,
she's got over $40,000 to spend a week.
Yeah, she's got a lot.
So we're asking the question this afternoon.
Oh, 800-DIAL-ZM, does your partner give you pocket money?
Hi, Lucas.
Yeah.
Do you get pocket money, Lucas,
or are you dishing out pocket money to your partner?
No, it's just a friend of mine.
He gets dished out pocket money from his parents, but he lives at home still.
He's 22 years old.
He's got a full-time job, and it's $200 a day.
What?
$200 a day?
Can we get the producer?
$200 a day?
A day.
How much is that?
A day.
So how much are we talking a month for him?
Let's go $30.
$200 times 30 days a month.
Six grand a month.
What?
That's a full-time wage.
Can we get the producer's line on for a second?
Can we get the producer's line on?
Producer Ellie's parents are actually in the booth at the moment as well.
They're hanging out?
Yeah.
Are they giving Producer Ellie any pocket money?
Producer Ellie...
Well, Producer Ellie's a lot older than 22, but I'd be interested to know.
Are you getting any pocket money as well?
Nah, no pocket money for me.
Hey. Oh, come on, no pocket money for me. Hey.
Oh, come on, guys.
Stingy.
Okay.
Back to the partner's conversation.
Connie.
Hi, Connie.
Hi.
Connie, are you dishing out money to your partner for pocket money?
I'm giving my husband pocket money as such, yeah.
Aren't you?
Aren't you a good wife, Connie?
Why does he need pocket money as such, yeah. Aren't you a good wife, Connie? Why does he need pocket money?
I get paid weekly and he gets paid monthly.
Right.
So he pays all the big things like the mortgage and all that.
Okay.
And with my weekly, what happened was he gave up smoking about three years ago.
Yeah.
So the money I used to dish out for smokes for him,
I give him in cash.
How much?
How much is he getting a week?
He only gets in my eyes, he's 60 bucks a week.
Hey, still.
But do you give him inflation on the cigarette prices? No.
Yeah, they go up 10% a year.
Does he get an extra $6 a year?
I haven't gone up with the inflation
because I still buy him his beer and anything else he needs.
I love, I love.
You're the best wife ever.
Yeah, but at the same time, she's keeping him on a short leash.
No, but I like it because she's rewarding him for giving up smoking.
You've got it sus, Connie.
Thanks for calling us.
There's some really good texts coming through, aren't there?
Yeah.
There's one that came through and it said,
I get $500 a week from my partner of three years.
He referenced it as a sugar daddy allowance.
That'll look great when we go to get a mortgage.
Yeah, right.
Oh, right, when he transfers it.
Oh, no.
We've got a text here from, I assume it's a man.
It says, I earn over $100,000. My wife earns $60, no. We've got a text here from, I assume it's a man. It says, I earn over $100,000.
My wife earns $60,000.
She lets me keep about $100 a week in pocket money.
Actually, there's no reason why that text should be a man.
I was going to say, why is it a man?
No, I'd take it back.
It could definitely be a female.
It could definitely be a female.
My favourite text, or not my favourite text,
but the juiciest text we've received is someone texted through
and they said, I get an allowance from the lady whom I have an affair with.
She gives me $2,000 a month.
It's hush money.
Do you reckon it is?
Well, who's having the affair?
That's the bit we don't know.
Also, I mean.
Like, is she cheating and she's transferring you money to stay quiet?
Or are you cheating with her and then getting money as well?
Is that your sugar mama?
Oh, you'd have to spend so much of it on your actual partner
to be able to subdue your own guilt.
She'd be like, why do you keep buying me a new phone every six months?
And you're like, no reason, just love ya.
Just love ya.
Bree and Clint.
Then, do you remember that phenomenon that happened last year
when all the women in the world realised that they all had the same freckle on their wrist?
Yeah, there's also, it was also the freckle on the left boob.
Yes, also most women realised that they had a hair tie around their wrist.
Yeah, that's pretty common.
All at the same time.
There's a new one of those, but this time it includes men as well.
Oh, about time men got a chance.
Oh, I was thinking the same thing
About time we got equal rights for men
So this has surfaced on Twitter
Where someone has pointed out that
A small sector of society
Can create a rumbling noise inside their ears
By tensing up the muscles
Just me saying that, does that make any sense to you?
Can you relate to it at all?
Kind of.
I've got a rumble.
This is kind of what I'm talking about.
But it's not as intense as that.
I realise I can do it, but you don't think you can do it off the top of your head?
I feel like I have done that before. Just go to the producers. Off the top of your head, ear rumbling, does that sound like something you guys think you can do it off the top of your head? I feel like I have done that before.
Let's go to the producers.
Off the top of your head, ear rumbling,
does that sound like something you guys think you can do?
No.
Does anyone else think it sounds like he's saying air rumbling?
Ear.
Ear rumbling.
Ear.
I guess it kind of works in both ways.
No, it doesn't.
E-A-R.
Ear.
Ear.
Is it my New Zealand accent?
Air. How do people say it? How do Australians say it? You're in-A-R. Ear. Ear. Is it my New Zealand accent? Air.
How do people say it?
How do Australians say it?
You're in New Zealand.
It sounds good.
Yeah, right?
So what you do is you contract muscles inside your ear lobes,
and it produces like a vibrating, rumbling noise.
Some people can do it when they go like that.
Some people can do it with that sort of thing.
This is really hard to explain on the radio.
Yeah, it's very visual.
Yeah, very visual.
How else can I explain it?
Wait, can I do it?
I think the headphones are hindering me.
Yeah, okay.
Some people also need to close their eyes to do this noise as well,
so maybe that will help.
Are you just making me look like an idiot?
It does seem like it, eh?
It does, eh?
Because I've just realised when I open my mouth like that
what it would look like.
It wasn't a premeditated thing, but give it a go.
Sure.
Give it a go.
Close your eyes.
I can do it.
Someone in the car right now will be doing ear rumbling.
Can you hear it?
Yeah, I can do it.
To me it kind of sounds like if I had to replicate the noise,
it's like...
Mine sounded kind of similar to that noise that you played.
Right?
Or more like this.
More like...
Yeah, but not as basic.
Yeah.
Yeah, I can do it.
So you're an ear rumbler.
What does that mean if you can do it?
Oh, nothing.
It just means you...
Brie and Clint.
Before then, though, we've got to do some Friday Oaky.
And now it's time for Brie and Clint Before then though We've got to do some Friday Okie And now it's time for Brie and Clint's Most popular segment
Friday Okie
I love Friday Okie
It's the best
I listen every Friday
I never miss Friday Okie
Thanks Brie and Clint
You've made my Friday again
Friday Okie
Every Friday we go head to head In a sing off Friday again. F-F-F-Friday Oki.
Every Friday we go head to head in a sing-off.
We get 15 minutes with a professional audio engineer and we have to do the best that we can with the song
that you guys have chosen for us to sing.
And you probably wonder why we do this segment
and it's because we're both averagely bad.
It's because we're both ignorant to how bad we are.
And we think the more we do this, the better singers we'll become.
No, I don't think that.
It hasn't been cancelled yet.
That's why this week I thought, hey, let's go hard.
Let's go really hard.
Who's the biggest topic of the week?
It's been Elton John.
He's been everywhere.
Well, actually, he's been nowhere because he had to cancel all his shows.
I was going to say, he left.
Yeah.
But I've selected for us to do this week an Elton John song.
It features an artist called Kiki D.
It's a duet.
And I thought, perfect opportunity for you and me, Brie,
to do a classic Friday Oaky duet.
We've only done it once before.
Mm-hmm.
And it wasn't good.
This is how we do it.
I go in for my 15 minutes
and record all the male parts.
Then Bree goes in for 15 minutes
and records all the female parts.
The first time we hear
the finished duet
is live on air.
It's right now.
So let's do it.
We want you guys this week
to listen to Friday Oki
and then call us and tell us who did the
best version, who did the best part of the duet.
Yeah. Good luck.
Good luck
to all parties. Good luck to everybody
involved with this week's
Friday Oki.
I couldn't if I tried Oh honey, if I get restless
Baby, you're not that kind
Don't go breaking my heart
You take the weight off of me
Oh honey
when you knock on my door
Oh I gave you my key
Ooh
Nobody knows it
When I was down
I was your clown
Nobody knows it
Nobody knows
Right from the start
I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart
So don't go breaking my heart.
I won't go breaking your heart.
Don't go breaking my, ooh.
Don't go breaking my heart.
I don't know how to feel.
The weirdest bit is we weren't in the same room.
No, we completely recorded
that separate, but it sounded
like we were in the same room together.
To us, at least. Well, yeah.
Look, I know it's hard. I know we're very, very good
singers, but we need you to pick
a winner, okay? We'd love five people to call
us now on 0800-DARLZM
and tell us who takes out
Friday Oki, the Elton John
and Kiki D edition.
Who was the best? Let's go.
Who did the best in there? We'll be back
with the results.
Free and Clint.
Friday Oki!
Here we are.
Another Friday, another Friday Oki.
This week we took on Elton John and Kiki D.
Don't go breaking my heart.
Sounded like this.
Don't go breaking my heart.
I won't go breaking your heart.
Don't go breaking my, ooh, don't go breaking my heart.
We're in here patting ourselves on the back going,
I think maybe we did a good job.
But are we being naive?
Do we need a bit of a reality check?
We can always rely on you guys to do that for us.
I feel like it didn't sound like me at all.
Don't you think?
It sounded like you.
And it sounded like me.
Like a softer version.
But did it sound good?
Let's ask Noah first.
Hey, Noah.
Hi.
Hi, Noah.
How old are you?
Good.
Oh, that's good.
Who are you voting for in Friday Okie today, Noah?
You.
Oh, thanks, Noah.
Appreciate that.
Me?
All right, it's one vote for me.
He was cute.
Let's go and talk to Nerissa.
Hey, Nerissa.
Hi, Nerissa.
Hi, guys.
Hi.
First of all, what are your thoughts?
We've done a duet.
We've put ourselves out there.
I honestly think you both sounded pretty good this week.
Oh, thank you.
Pretty good.
Pretty good.
Who sounded pretty the best, though?
Who's winning Friday-oke?
Oh, it's a tough one, but I'm going to have to say Clint.
Yeah.
Okay.
Thank you, Nerissa.
I appreciate it.
Let's talk to Lucy.
Hey, Lucy.
Hi, Lucy.
Hi.
What are your thoughts this week, Lucy?
She did pretty good.
Right.
Have we found our rhythm?
Do we need to only exclusively do duets?
Yeah.
Maybe when we combine, it's like, you know.
We cancel each other out.
It's pretty average, which is not bad.
Who's the winner, Lucy?
Who's got your vote?
It goes to Bree.
Oh, thanks, Lucy.
2-1 to Bree.
Claudia's here.
Hey, Claudia.
Hi, Claude.
Hi.
What are you thinking, Claudia?
Wow, I think you actually sounded pretty legit this week, Bree.
What's going on?
I thought it was a bit rough.
I thought you were going to say both of us.
Okay, so is your vote for Bree?
No, I think it's for you.
Yeah, I'm definitely voting for Bree.
Aw, thanks, Claudia.
You've won the game.
Let's get one last vote from Lewis.
Hi, Lewis.
Hi, Lewis.
Hi.
How old are you, Lewis?
Nine.
Nine?
And is Friday Oaky, like, one
of your favourites, or do you hate it?
Um, I like it.
Okay. Who's won this week?
I think
three.
Thank you, Lewis. I've been almost
downtrodden at my own song choice.
You know why? Why?
Because you had the harder Elton John bits,
mate. I mean, how do you compare to Elton John?
You just slipped in there with some casual kiki D.
Yeah, exactly.
Just, you know.
Thanks for your votes, everybody.
Bree and Clint.
Hey.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's birthday banger.
This is where we take your guys' birthdays
and we figure out what was actually number one on the charts
on your 16th birthday.
Lisa's going to play first.
Hi, Lisa.
Hi, Lisa.
Hi.
Happy Friday.
Thank you.
Happy Friday to you too.
What's your birthday, Lisa?
19th of October, 1970.
All right.
You were 16 in 1986 on the 19th of October.
And, Lisa, this is your birthday banger.
Clint hates this song,
don't you?
This song's so cheesy.
You hate the song, Clint.
What do you think, Lisa?
I think it's a great banger.
Do you? I like it.
Is it Europe?
Is that who did this song?
I think so, yeah.
Europe, isn't it?
Is it from Rocky? Yeah. Oh, no, Is that who did the song? I think so, yeah. Europe, isn't it? Is it from Ike?
Yeah.
Oh, no, that's Eye of the Tiger.
Oh, yeah, true.
It reminds me, Lisa, of like any big sporting event
you used to play when you were younger.
Yep, definitely.
And they always play it to like get everyone ramped up.
All right, all right.
That's enough hype for the final countdown.
Alana's here.
Hey, Alana.
Hi, Alana.
Hi.
What's your birthday, Alana?
31st of March, 91. Alright, you were
16 in 2007
on the 21st of March
and back in the mid-2000s, this
went to number one.
Silverchair.
I dropped his sister home once.
Remember I told you that story?
Daniel John's sister.
Daniel John's sister.
I was in Newcastle where he's from
and this girl goes,
oh, are you going past such and such at this party?
And I was like, yeah.
She's like, can I get a lift?
And on the way home I found out it was his sister.
She didn't go, I'm Daniel John's sister, can I get a lift?
No, she didn't.
Do you like Silverchair, Alana? I don't ever know that song can I get a lift? No, she didn't. Do you like Silver Chair Alana?
I don't ever know that song.
Right, okay.
It wasn't their biggest song, it was kind of their comeback song.
Yeah, it was, you're right.
We did a rock song yesterday too, we did Linkin Park.
We did double back to back.
And it went well, but is that the right song?
We've got one more to go.
Kerry, hi Kerry.
Hi Kerry.
Hi.
What's your birthday, Kerry?
22nd April 1987.
All right.
You were 16 in 2003 on the 22nd of April.
And, Kerry, this is your birthday bang.
I just want to feel real love, feel the home that I live in.
Robbie Williams?
Yes, Robbie Williams.
He's a bit of okay.
Yeah, I love a bit of him.
He's a bit of okay.
Is this song a bit of okay, though?
This was one of the big ones.
I don't know if I'd call it a banger.
It's no angels.
No.
It's no rock DJ.
Okay.
I don't want to rock.
DJ. Maybe it is rock DJ. Okay, wait there,'t want to rock, DJ.
Maybe it is rock DJ.
Okay, wait there, Kerry.
We've got a decision to make.
You seem very disappointed with Birthday Banger today.
I don't want to lie about my feelings.
There's no song for me in there.
Right.
There's nothing that's doing it for you.
I like Silverchair.
And I like that Silverchair album.
I love that song, Straight Lines.
I think it's a great song.
Yeah, is it going to be your vote?
Or are you going to vote for the final countdown?
I do love the final countdown.
Put a vote in.
Oh, I'm just having a look on the text machine. Yeah, there's a few things coming through.
Like, I love that song from Robbie Williams,
Bit Slow for a Friday.
I agree.
Let's knock that out.
It's gone.
It's gone.
In the final countdown.
My vote is for Silverchair.
Oh, people are going to hate me for saying Silverchair.
I think I'm voting the final countdown.
Let's do it.
Okay, we're going to a split vote.
Producer Ellie, you get the decision today.
I know you're going to hate this.
I hate this so much.
You have to choose between all three songs.
Robbie Williams is back in contention.
What is the winner of Birthday Banger?
Okay, I think for a Friday, we need to be pumped.
So I think it's the final countdown for me.
Yes, it is.
Oh, you...
All right.
Lisa, congratulations. You've won Birthday Banger. Yes, Lisa. Yay, go to the 80s. Lisa congratulations

Oh, June.
You know?
It is a tune.
What could have been?
No, this wasn't on offer.
No, I know, but if someone had called up and this was their birthday banger,
then this could have been.
Yes.
Could have.
Imagine all the other good songs in the world we could have played. I mean, any song could have been.
If you've stuck with us, we appreciate you.
And next on the show, been. If you've stuck with us, we appreciate you.
And next on the show,
we're going to delve into the eating habits of your
relationship. That's right.
We've got some stats. Some
hard, cold,
sticky stats.
Stick these stats
in you.
We'll give them to you next.
Brie and Clint, it is.
All together now.
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
I really regretted that as soon as I did it.
Bree and Clint.
In the name of important romance research,
2,000 people were surveyed by a company called From Mars
and they were surveyed about the time it takes
for them to reach various modern dating destinations.
For example, how long it takes to borrow clothes from each other,
how long it takes to do the toilet chats,
how long it takes to share your Netflix accounts, stuff like that.
What's the toilet chats?
You know, when you stop lying to each other about when you need to go for a poo.
Right.
I used to do that.
I still am shocked by that.
I'm never going to get over it, but I've got the stats.
It's the most romantic thing my wife and I do for each other.
That's sad.
We pretend neither of us have buttholes.
Yeah, right.
But there is stats on how long it takes each gender
for these different types of things in relationships.
So the first one that came up was actually how long it takes females
and males to share food when they're in a relationship.
You mean if we both go out for brunch and I say,
oh, do you want one of these potatoes?
Yeah, or do you want a bite of this?
Okay.
That kind of stuff.
Does that not happen on the first date?
I don't think so.
Not with everyone.
Right, okay.
It might be a little bit awkward for some people.
In terms of this study, apparently women, it takes them about five months to start sharing food.
Okay.
Whereas males, they're a little bit earlier.
It takes them about four months.
I knew men would be earlier.
You reckon?
I have a theory that women are more protective of their food than men.
Probably.
I think you are.
Yeah.
Oh, well, I know I am.
I know you are.
I hate sharing food.
Yeah, whereas me, you can have something on the first date.
To be fair, if we've shared spit, we can share food.
Yeah, that's true.
You know?
On the first date, though, you wouldn't have shared spit before the food, surely.
I greet, I greet on the lips.
Oh, right.
So, wait, you're just straight in for the kiss before the date starts.
I'm joking.
I know you are.
I'm joking.
What about, what other ones have I got here?
How long it takes for men and females to get naked in front of each other?
Oh.
This is interesting, hey?
With the lights on.
With the lights on, yeah.
How long it takes to bear all.
So does doing the thing count?
That doesn't count.
Doesn't count.
No, because you're under the covers.
Yeah, right.
I'm talking like you will get up and you'll get changed.
Have a shower, come in and drop the towel to get dressed.
Absolutely.
That's what we're talking about here.
Okay, well, I'd love to know this.
What is it for women?
For the women, it's a full eight months to feel dressed. Absolutely. That's what we're talking about. Okay. Well, I'd love to know this. What is it for women? For the women,
it's a full eight months
to feel relaxed,
fully naked in front of their partner.
Right.
I understand that.
Yeah.
That's a fair while, isn't it?
What about dudes?
Two days?
Dudes.
Are they like,
okay, you're staying over now.
Look at this.
No.
But we know what it was like
in your relationship.
It's actually about five months for males.
Oh, okay.
To do that.
Longer than I thought, yeah.
And the favourite one, of course, for you,
you love to talk about this,
how long does it take for women to be okay with farting
in front of their significant other?
Yeah.
You're already uncomfortable.
Yeah, do women first.
Do the females.
All right.
For women to feel comfortable to fart in front of their partner,
it takes them about nine months.
For males.
Too soon.
Too soon?
Too soon.
No.
Yeah.
Well, you're bound to have an accident, aren't you?
No, but you said be comfortable.
Yeah, well, that's what it says.
That doesn't count accidents, yeah.
And then for the blokes, this is quite shocking to me.
Five years and counting?
Eight months.
Oh, right, okay.
But for Clint, it is six years and two months.
Bree and Clint.
Hey, this is a crazy story about someone out of the UK
who has had to have a brain tumour removed.
Oh, scary.
They're in their 50s and they've played the violin for 40 years
and they had to have a tumour removed from their brain.
Now, when you do this, you don't know how it's going to affect things
like your motor skills.
And the one thing they really wanted to preserve
was their ability to be able to play the violin post-surgery right because obviously a brain tumor they'd be cutting
certain parts yeah out of the brain i think you just don't know once they open up that area of
your body you don't know what it's going to affect because you know what happened my hairdresser
she had a brain tumor and it fully affected her whole personality. I thought you were going to go, my hairdresser cut my hair too short one time.
No, no.
And I swear I walked funny for a week.
No.
She had a brain tumour and it fully changed her personality.
Yeah.
And people were like, what is going on with you?
You're a completely different person.
She had a scan done.
She had a brain tumour.
Yeah.
And even neurosurgeons still don't completely understand how that...
Which parts kind of...
Well, what do they say?
Which side's the creative side?
I don't know, but the left controls the right and the right controls the left is what I
know.
Psychologist Ellie should know.
She did a psychology degree.
Is she listening?
Ellie, which side of the brain is the creative side and which side is the, I guess, what
would you call it?
Logical?
I'm going back into the old logs and my psychology degree
here. Right brain creative.
Left brain analytic.
That's why my right brain feels heavier.
And I've got nothing on my left.
You're lopsided. So this lady,
what they decided to do was the surgeon
mapped out her brain
and goes, okay, I'm pretty sure this is the part of your
brain that controls your violin skills.
Which is probably on the right side.
Well, it's her left hand that does most of the violinning, I think.
And so they had to, yeah, right side.
Yep.
Creative.
And then when they opened her skull up to remove the tumor, she was conscious.
And they had her play the violin during surgery.
That is so hectic.
So they could continue to map out what was happening.
You can see it there happening.
Oh my God.
She's literally awake.
Yeah.
Oh, that's full on.
She's playing the violin.
This is what it sounds like.
This is what someone playing the violin with their skull open sounds like.
Fantastic.
Sounds pretty similar to someone with their skull on.
A bit pitchy.
It is.
I love the encouragement coming from the rest of the theatre staff as well.
It sounds amazing.
Keep going.
Keep doing it.
The whole thing is just mental.
Anyway, she's survived.
And what happened?
Does she still have the whole skills and all that stuff left?
Yeah, yeah, she does, yeah.
I mean, no word on whether she has any better or worse at the violin, but, you know.
Imagine if she got better.
Yeah, they're like, while you're in there, give me a tune-up.
Yeah, right?
