Kia ora everybody, welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast.
You podcasters have inspired what has been a bit of a running theme in the show this week,
which is to track down Hotmuzz from Hotmuzz's Pies.
Yeah, it was the rumour that I came across because my partner lives in an area
where I've heard from all the flatmates that this guy who works at the pie shop,
very, very attractive.
Like to the point where there's other people in the community talking about it.
He's become an urban legend.
He has, yeah.
Or a suburban legend.
Not going to give anything away,
but things kind of reach a...
There's a few details we find out
in today's podcast.
Some interesting news about Hot Muzz
comes to our attention today.
Did he go to jail?
I mean, you have to listen to the podcast.
And that, I reckon, is a great reason to stick around and listen to the podcast.
I don't reckon we need to do anything else.
Anyone else got any admin that's going to be better than that that needs to be addressed?
Nah.
Nothing from you guys?
Nah.
Good.
Good.
No one you've piqued.
Here's the podcast, everyone.
Hey, Google.
What's the time?
It's 3 p.m.
Give or take a minute.

Bree and Clint are on air in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Mic's off.
There we go.
We're good.
Sorry, there's a button issue.
I couldn't get it to work.
Yeah, that's the issue.
Well, the button issue was I forgot the button.
But hey, we're here now.
Welcome to the show, everybody.
Bree and Clint, really good to be here.
What's today?
Tuesday.
Today's Tuesday.
Tomorrow's Wednesday.
Then Thursday is Waitangi Day.
I know.
Waitangi Day is fast approaching.
How many people do you think are just going to take that Friday off and have a four-day
weekend?
Well, to be honest, the smart people.
The smart people, right?
But actually, no, in fairness, there's some bosses who will be a bit of a dick.
Oh, yeah.
And not let you take it off.
Yeah.
Oh, no, no, not everybody will be able to.
Not talking about Ross, boss, because, I mean, we're going to be here.
Not talking about you, Ross.
We love you, and we're so stoked to be here on Friday.
Today, your chance to take away $50,000 with ZM's secret sound.
The jackpot is at 50 grand already.
You just need to tell us what the secret sound is.
This sound right here.
What is that?
If you've got an idea, go and check it at ZM Online first
to see it hasn't already been guessed
and then start bombarding us with your calls at 4 o'clock
when The Secret Sound returns.
Thanks to Save My Bacon.
Have we had any inkling of a clue yet?
No.
I know it's day two.
I don't think Gary's anywhere near that yet.
I think he's –
He hasn't even got a new suit.
No, he's got an old suit.
He's cut it into short sleeves.
He looks like Crocodile Dundee.
He's wearing a cowboy hat, walking around like he is the king of all creation at the moment.
Have you seen the shorts?
The slit goes all the way up into his crotch.
It's an HR issue.
I'm telling you, he's bound to get flagged by HR.
He should shave 50 bucks off that 50,000 and treat himself to a new suit.
He should just shave in general.
4 o'clock and 5 o'clock today, your chance to play The Secret Sound.
Next though, have we discovered the key to happiness?
It will cost you some money.
No, well, no, not cheese, but that could be part of it.
Yeah.
This thing will cost you some money, but you can do it.
And this information that we've got says, hey, it will really, really have a major and instant improvement on your well-being.
We're talking about especially in a relationship, right?
Definitely in a relationship. Oh, yeah. And I would say definitely in a flatting situation as well-being. We're talking about especially in a relationship, right? Definitely in a relationship.
Oh, yeah.
And I would say definitely in a flatting situation as well.
Yep.
Like it will just restore harmony to the whole universe,
however your universe operates.
We'll tell you what that is next.
And maybe you can roll it out in your place before the weekend.
This is Sons of Zion and Come Home.
Bree and Clint, ZM.
Bree and Clint.
There's an article on News Hub today, actually,
which has said if you pay for this one thing,
you're going to free up your happiness.
You're going to make yourself more happy.
You're going to have more time to do the things that you love.
Your life's going to be better.
A good vacuum cleaner.
A good, oh, no, but bloody good start.
It helps.
I'm telling you, it helps a lot.
It's how you know You're over 25
If you go
You know what
I need a good vacuum cleaner
My dad never vacuumed
In his whole life
My mum bought the new Dyson
He vacuums every day
I saw on your Instagram
At Christmas
He vacuums the car engine
With the Dyson
Yeah
He loves it
He had family over
And he was
Instead of showing them
He was showing them the Dyson
It's like his favourite new toy.
It's so strange.
I don't blame him.
That's a very bougie vacuum cleaner.
Definitely helps.
But I'm going to go on the record and say,
I, Clint Roberts, have a Dyson vacuum cleaner.
Yeah, you fancy.
It is my favourite thing in the world.
But you can get other versions of it.
You can get cheaper versions, like that sort of thing.
But a good vacuum cleaner.
God, we're getting sidetracked.
It's not even the thing that makes you happy. It makes me happy.
Well, it's kind of involved in the thing that makes you happy.
It's kind of the thing, yeah. So according to this
article, you will be happier
and
have more time to spend on your relationships
and doing the things you love
if you hire
a cleaner. If you
just go, I hate cleaning the shower,
I hate cleaning the toilet. I hate getting someone in once a fortnight, once a shower, I hate cleaning the toilet. Getting someone in
once a fortnight, once a week. I hate cleaning the oven.
We're just going to pay someone to do that. Boom.
And boom, it's done. Then you have a nice environment
to live in and you've just used
some of your money to clear that bit off your schedule.
I feel like this is a real
problem solver or can
be in certain flats where you're
flatting with quite a few people and obviously
a lot of the fights in a flat
and especially, I mean, I still live in a flat
and people get annoyed when
someone's doing more cleaning than the other
person and say someone likes a really
clean bathroom so they clean a lot more
and then they get annoyed because they're cleaning
more. Flatting is the perfect time to do
it because if you have three people
you're splitting the cost of that cleaner between
three of you. I googled it because you go cleaner.
What am I?
Richie Rich?
Who am I?
Jeff Bezos?
I've Googled how much a cleaner costs
and they're between $25 and $50 an hour,
which means you can get one for $25 an hour.
Jeez, wait.
So there's a high-end cleaner
and then like a beginner cleaner.
Yeah.
$50 an hour?
They must be cleaning up a storm.
I think it's probably the difference between them bringing their own handy-andy
and them using whatever cleaning products you've got.
Maybe.
I don't know.
I don't know.
But what do you need?
You probably need a couple of hours of cleaning a fortnight type thing,
do you reckon?
Yeah, I'd say so.
Depending on how many bathrooms you had.
I feel like bathrooms, if I could pick anything
for a cleaner to clean in my
home, it'd be my bathroom. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which is probably the worst place to clean.
No one gets any joy out of that job.
Like, I do get joy out of vacuuming,
because I'm a loser, but I don't know
if anyone gets any joy out of scrubbing
tiles or wiping a toilet bowl.
I do love to get into my shower.
Do you? I clean when I'm showering.
So say we get a-
I've got like a big scrubbing brush and I'll like spray.
And then I'm always thinking, I'm like, I probably shouldn't be naked in here cleaning
because all these chemicals are going into my pores.
You gave Ellie and I crap for cleaning the shower naked last year.
No, but you guys kind of made it out that you get naked and then clean, not like you're
in the shower.
What, you just, you start cleaning and then somehow you accidentally become naked?
Is that what happens to you?
If I'm showering in the shower, I'm like,
oh, there's a spot that should be cleaned and I'll spray after I'm showering.
You took us to task.
You made us feel like absolute creepers.
You guys said that you clean everything naked, not just in the shower.
I do.
Exactly different.
I do.
Because then you don't get bleach on your clothes.
Then you also give the neighbours a fright.
Can your neighbour see into your bathroom?
I clean everything in the bathroom, Nude.
How did we get here?
I'll just do some quick math.
If you, me, say you, me and Ellie live together.
Sorry, Ben, you're out.
So there's three of us and we're paying for four hours of cleaning a month at $25.
So that's once a week?
Yeah. Or once a fortnight. Two hours
once a fortnight. Okay. $100
a month divided by three
of us. It's $33 each
a month divided by a weekly rent. So
four weeks. It's $8.30
a week each. And we
never have to have a fight about cleaning
ever again. You know?
And I don't have to pull that hair out of the drain again.
Exactly right.
You should be pulling it out.
It's more likely your hair than mine.
No, it's Ellie's hair, if anyone.
Look at her.
Guilty.
I love our flat.
This is quite interesting, a pub.
Because obviously, you know, we've all been to a pub
or we've all been to a nightclub and sometimes, mainly for the guys, a pub. Because obviously, you know, we've all been to a pub or we've all been to a nightclub
and sometimes, mainly for the guys, I feel, I feel like the guys get the raw end of the
deal where they're like, oh, can't come in with those shoes.
Oh, can't come in with that T-shirt.
You know what I mean?
Can't come in with that eyebrow piercing.
Oh, can't come in with that face tattoo.
You know?
Yeah.
Whereas the girls, I feel like we get a bit more leeway on the old outfits.
I think so.
Yeah.
But this is quite funny because there's a pub over in Scotland.
Oh, Scotland.
Scotland.
Who have banned even more things for the fellas that they can't wear apparently.
Okay, right.
So apparently this pub in Scotland, on top of everything else that they've said,
obviously the gents can't wear in there, they've decided to ban the jobby catcher.
What's a jobby catcher?
Do you know what that is?
A jobby catcher?
I thought jobby was a code word for a number two.
A jobby? Yeah. For a number two? Yeah. Is it not? I thought jobby was a code word for a number two. A jobby?
Yeah.
For a number two?
Yeah.
Is it not?
I've never heard that.
What's a jobby catcher?
So a jobby catcher, when I tell you what it is, you'll recall.
And I feel like this is quite common in the UK for gents to wear this,
but it's a trackuit that pretty much has elastic
at the ends, like around the ankles.
Oh.
So it's like a full, pretty much a full tracksuit that's like one colour.
Yeah.
And it's like elasticised at the end.
Oh, underneath the feet.
Yes.
So the stirrups.
No, no, no, no, no.
Not the stirrups.
The stirrups that go under the feet?
No, not the stirrups.
We're not going that old school.
Just a tracksuit, a full like matching tracksuit that's got the elastic parts.
Do they call it a jobby catcher?
I think that's what they call it in Scotland.
Okay, no tracksuits.
So no tracksuits.
And they also said that they don't want to see any mancles,
which obviously means, you know, when hipsters get their jeans or their,
what are those other pants called?
Chinos.
Chinos, and they roll them up and then they wear shoes with no socks.
Oh, man ankles.
Yeah, man ankles.
They're banning ankles.
Yeah, they're banning man ankles.
I am upset about that one.
Why do you like to rock that one?
I don't mind getting an ankle out.
They call it male cleavage.
Do you actually like that look. I don't mind getting an ankle out. They call it male cleavage. Do you actually
like that look?
Where people wear a suit
and then no socks
and a dress shoe. The right shoe
and the right pair of pants. Yeah, I think it's
a good look. Have you worn it recently?
Yeah. Where did you wear it?
I've worn it to weddings.
I've worn it to the races. Do you
wear socks in the shoes? Yeah Do you wear socks in the shoe?
Yeah, you wear socks in the shoe, yeah.
But like little, like ballet socks.
Yeah, ballet socks.
Do you wear dancers' socks?
They're called no-show socks.
No-show socks.
Yeah.
My dad, we were in Byron last year.
Your dad does this?
No, he does not.
He does?
So I saw him getting ready for your mate Gawndy's wedding.
This is the story I'm about to tell you. Went to my mate Gawndy's wedding. This is the story I'm about to tell you.
Went to my mate Gawndy's wedding with my dad and my mum,
and my dad walks out and goes,
guys, what do you think of my hipster look?
Shoes, no socks.
I was like, dad, it doesn't work when you've got the worst sock tan I've ever seen,
so it still looks like you're wearing socks.
Yeah, he had white socks on.
Yeah.
There you go.
There's a picture.
You guys can't see this at home,
but there's a picture of me at a wedding with the no sock Chino look.
What's everyone's thoughts on that?
Hey.
Just tell me what, tell me how you.
Everyone's thoughts.
Tell me how you feel about it.
No, I'm just asking.
General consensus.
This is a double standard because look at my beautiful wife, Lucy,
who I'm standing next to.
She looks amazing.
You can see her ankles.
Yeah, but she's also wearing a sandal.
Yeah, but she's definitely not wearing socks.
There's no socks inside that sandal.
Yeah, you don't wear socks and sandals.
Everyone knows that.
Well, at least I've got socks on.
I've got more on than she does.
You're wearing a full dress shoe with pants.
Guys, yes or no?
I think it's a yes.
I find it trendy.
You like it?
I think it's quite cute, actually.
Thanks.
Suck up.
Bree and Clint.
Guys, I don't know if anyone was asking for this,
but it's big news out today that we will be receiving
a musical parody of the TV show Friends.
Not something I ever thought that I wanted.
It's not the Friends reunion we were hoping for.
No.
So give me the details.
What does a Friends musical look like?
So essentially the musical will pretty much cover
all the best moments of the TV show Friends
with all the main characters.
Obviously not the original
actors. I was going to say, but not really.
No. I don't imagine
Jennifer Aniston is signing
on to do a stint touring
musical Friends. Maybe on Broadway
she would. Yeah.
The show, the Friends musical
parody will hit Australia
in August
and then, don't worry, we get it here too.
It's coming to New Zealand on Thursday the 1st of October.
You'll be able to get tickets here in Auckland.
And then it's also doing one other show in Dunedin on the 9th of September.
Yeah.
And tickets start at $79.90.
Oh, yeah, I'll probably go and have a look.
Would you go have a look? Here's the thing. There are no songs in Friends. Oh, yeah, I'll probably go and have a look. Would you go have a look?
Here's the thing.
There are no songs in Friends.
Oh, no, there's Smelly Cat and stuff like that.
Yeah, that's about it.
There are some songs.
Apparently songs.
But you've got to create songs that people don't already have a connection to.
That's the hard bit.
That is the hard part.
Like if you take Lion King and put it on stage.
It works because there's already music.
You just sing Lion King songs.
And Friends.
I think they might have written some.
Yeah.
Which I don't.
Yeah, okay.
Hey, I'm hopeful.
Maybe it'll be great.
Maybe it will.
Maybe it will.
Let's go into it optimistically.
Yeah, for sure.
I thought we could have a chat, though, about musical songs that are some of the best that you've ever seen in a show.
Yeah, what do you think one of the best musical songs is? I think, in my
opinion, I've been to a fair
few musicals, but you
can't go past the song in Wicked.
I've never seen Wicked.
You? No.
I know, I know, I know. No, that is horrible.
I know, and I'm the thespian on the show.
Have you seen the, speaking of Lion King, have you seen the Lion King musical?
So good.
The stage one.
Yeah.
Where they recreate all the animals out of moving people.
One of my friends was one of the hyenas in it.
Yeah.
Yeah, he said it was the best time of his life.
It looks like so much fun.
Yeah, that's good.
It looks like so much fun.
What about the song out of Beauty and the Beast?
You don't know this song, do you?
So I've never seen Beauty and the Beast.
How have you not seen that movie?
It just passed me by.
I could tell you what it's about, but I just
I could. I'm so sick of that
line. Have you seen Jersey Boys
the musical? Yes, it's so good.
Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.
That's on my list.
I've heard all the music from it, but I haven't seen it.
One of my favourite musicals, I think.
Also one of my favourite musicals, Dreamgirls.
Dreamgirls.
Oh, that's the...
With Jennifer Hudson.
Yes.
Yeah, this song here.
Get it, girl.
What's the musical Jess Malboy was in?
She was in a musical?
Yeah.
Let me Google it.
Hold on.
The other one.
Oh, I know what you're talking about.
Are you talking about the Sapphires?
Yes, I think so.
Yeah.
What's the movie?
I don't know.
They might have made it into a musical.
The other one that's incredibly good is The Book of Mormon,
but I couldn't get any songs to play on the show because none of them
are appropriate for the radio
at 10 to 4.
But if you get the chance
to see The Book of Mormon
It's coming.
It's coming, yeah.
You won't regret it.
It's written by
the South Park guys.
Yeah, apparently
it is brilliant.
Hey, that's nice.
We've never had musical chat
on this show.
Well, there you go.
All the musical fans out there
this is what you've been
waiting for.
Bree and Clint.
This is super exciting news out today for all the dog owners in New Zealand
because TVNZ have put the call out for anyone who thinks they have
a very smart and intelligent dog.
Okay.
They're going to film a new TV series,
which obviously they need a cast of dogs for.
They need ones who are obedient, agile, entertaining dogs in New Zealand.
Is it like a dog version of The Chaser?
Maybe, like a quiz show.
Yeah.
Hey, I had a thought just now.
Do you want to enter me and I will pretend to be a dog?
That's one of the weirdest requests you've ever asked me for.
But if we can dress me up convincingly enough as if we won't win.
Yeah, and I'll put you on a leash.
Right.
I'm not very agile on all fours, though.
As long as it's your idea, I just feel like in 2020,
it's not that woke of me to go, I'm going to put Bree in as a dog.
But if I'm telling you, then I feel like it's fine.
Then, yeah, I want to do that.
Because we could win $100,000.
Oh, then, yeah.
Absolutely.
I'll happily be the dog too.
Yeah.
I'll be a dog as well.
We'll get two entries.
Get Ben and Ellie to walk us in.
Applicants must be at least 18 years old,
and they're going to take dogs of all shapes and sizes.
So we thought this afternoon,
let's do a bit of our own search for the smartest New Zealand dog with our own Bree and Clint Doggy Quiz.
Let's meet today's contestant, a dog by the name of Lewis owned by Glenn.
Who are we talking to, Glenn or Lewis?
Yeah, you've got both of us here. Oh, perfect. I think that was Glenn, but I'm not sure. I'm pretty sure that was Glenn. Who are we talking to? Glenn or Lewis? Yeah, you've got both of us here.
Oh, perfect.
I think that was Glenn.
Yeah, I think that was...
But I'm not sure.
I'm pretty sure that was Glenn.
Yeah, that was Glenn.
Lewis, can we...
Glenn, can we hear Lewis?

So cute.
This is how the dog quiz is going to work.
Bree will explain it, but just so you guys are clear, Glenn and George,
it's Lewis and Luna who need to play, not you.
All right, guys.
Pretty much I'm going to ask a number of questions.
Lewis and Luna can pretty much yell out the answer whenever they want.
No buzzers.
They can just yell out the answer straight away. No buzzers.
Okay, I like it.
Cool.
All right, because we're just going to get straight into it.
All right, Lewis and Luna, your first question is,

And did he get the answer correct?
Yes, he did.
Good work, Lewis.
He said he had trouble counting on his fingers because he doesn't have any.
Very good point. Okay, Lewis, good boy. You're up 1-0. Well done. All right, next question, Lewis. He said he had trouble counting on his fingers because he doesn't have any. Very good point.
Okay, Lewis, good boy.
You're up 1-0.
Well done.

What is the meaning of life?
Do some singing.
Do some singing.
Good thing.
Good thing.
Thank you.
Luna.
Luna, she's got it.
I am mind blown.
I can't believe she knew the answer to that question.
Not many people do.
Not many people know. And for that reason, we won't believe she knew the answer to that question. Not many people do. Not many people know.
And for that reason, we won't be repeating the correct answer.
But sorry, Lewis.
But Luna, you are the winner of Bree and Clint's Smartest Dog today.
Well done.
She should enter the competition.
She should definitely enter the competition.
Bree and Clint, it's Justin Bieber and Yummy. She should definitely enter the competition. Bree and Clint.
It's Justin Bieber in Yummy.
She's still going.
Go, Luna.
Go, Luna.
Yeah, you got that yummy.
Bree and Clint.
Look, something we've talked about on our show,
and I feel like a lot of people that listen to this show
have probably found themselves in maybe a similar situation
at some points, but is living with an ex.
Because in this day and age, depending on where you live,
sometimes it can get quite expensive, you know,
obviously to move out of a flat or to start renting somewhere
when you've been with someone.
Especially if it's just you and that person living there
and you've got like a term contract and there's a penalty to break the rent.
Like if you're not in a financial position to do it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
In saying that, I still maintain it is never a good idea.
Not any amount of money is worth it.
Take my kidney, you know, whatever it takes.
If we've broken up, we got to go.
Even if I still love you as a person.
Sorry, hon.
We got to go. It's interesting the stats you as a person, sorry, hon, we've got to go.
It's interesting the stats that have come out on this recently because it says that more than one in ten people say that they've had
to live with an ex just to make ends meet at some point in their life.
Yeah.
And then it also says one in 25 or about 4% of people said
that they were still living with an ex
sometimes years after they'd broken up.
Yeah.
Can you imagine?
We're in a privileged position to be able to,
and not that I'm planning on breaking up with my partner by the way,
but we're in a privileged position where we could.
If we had to, we could go stay with friends or just pay whatever the cost is.
This is why some people get stuck in bad relationships
and sometimes abusive relationships too
because you can't financially afford to leave the situation that you're in.
There'd definitely be people out there that are obviously thinking,
oh, I remember when I stayed in that relationship
because obviously the burden and the thought of having to find, you know,
a new bond or a new place to live was just too much
and cost too, like, too expensive.
Pets are another big part of it as well.
There's that new organisation, Pet Refuge,
which has been set up in New Zealand,
which is like if you're in a relationship
that you need to get out of,
but sometimes they use the pet as like blackmail
to make you stay there.
Or even sometimes it's not that sinister.
Sometimes it's like I need to leave this relationship,
but I can't find a flat that will allow me to take my dog.
Well, that's hard too.
I told you about that friend of mine.
She was in a relationship and their relationship was completely fine.
I knew her for a long time.
They had this beautiful dog that they'd bought together.
And when they actually purchased the dog,
they were talking about, you know, okay, we need obviously,
you know, some rules about what happens if we do break up.
A puppy prenup.
Yeah, pretty much.
And I was kind of like, that's a bit grim, like talking about, you know,
the what if.
But anyway, they did and pretty much the rules were that if someone
in the relationship decided that if someone in the relationship
decided that they wanted to leave and they wanted to break the relationship,
then the other person got to keep the dog.
Yeah, which I think, I've said to you,
I think there's pros and cons to that arrangement.
To be honest, if you really think about that,
it's kind of a little bit blackmailish.
That's my point because it's like don't break up with me
or I'll keep the dog. Yeah, you know what I mean. That's my point. Because it's like, don't break up with me or I'll keep the dog.
Yeah, you know what I mean.
That's pretty rough.
This is the reason why Lucy, my wife, and I, we got two cats.
Do you know which cat you're getting?
We're going to split them straight down the middle.
The cats are so excited about it.
Yeah, I know which cat I'm getting.
We're not breaking up, by the way.
There is no plan to break up whatsoever.
It sounds like you've got all the things worked out.
No, we're not breaking up.
Who gets the baby?
Bree and Clint.
They said the perfect engagement ring didn't exist.
Who said that?
Someone said it.
I disagree because I have seen it.
It's out there.
It exists.
And Domino's, of all places, is bringing it to the people.
The perfect engagement ring? The pizza shop Domino's of all places is bringing it to the people. The perfect engagement ring.
The pizza shop Domino's.
Yeah.
Everyone has seen this story.
It's doing the rounds and it's in the lead up to Valentine's Day,
but they've released an 18-carat yellow and white gold base
and a topping of diamond cheese and pepperoni rubies engagement ring.
Right, and you think this is the perfect engagement ring, do you?
For me it is.
Is it?
I love pizza.
You like this ring?
Yeah.
Right, okay.
I didn't say it looked good.
Because I'm pretty sure I remember a conversation with you about an hour ago
where you said, if I got this ring,
I would melt that bitch down.
And make a nice one.
Yeah, it's exactly what...
It's not a good looking ring.
I'm just checking.
Because I'm not saying you're a liar.
I'm just saying if you've changed your mind
and that's the ring you want,
it's just good to know.
It's good for your partner to know as well.
You know what I do like about the ring though?
What?
I love that it's unique.
It's definitely unique. A pizza engagement unique. It's definitely unique. A pizza
engagement ring. I do love that.
I absolutely love that
and if I were to ever to be
engaged, I would love something that's
unique. So you can actually get this ring
right? Yes, you can actually get it
and someone's going to win this ring
and this is
blowing my mind. It's worth $9,000.
That was the point at which Br goes, melt that bitch down.
And I'll make a decent ring out of that.
Anyway.
Yeah, I'm with you.
I like when people bring their own, excuse the pun,
flavour to any situation like that.
Anything that's formal and they tell you you've got to do it this way,
anyone who changes that up a bit, I like it
And if you want to have a different engagement ring, then go for it
It's your engagement ring
Well, it doesn't look bad on the hand
You've got to wear that thing for the rest of your life though
Keep that in mind
Like I said, you can change it
But if you do want to win it
You can send in a 30 second video clip
And I think it's available to Aussies and Kiwis
Oh yeah
And I guess I would be the perfect person and Kiwis. Oh, yeah.
And I guess I would be the perfect person to give that ring to, though.
Would you?
Yeah.
I thought you'd be more of just like a block of cheese, you know?
I would love that.
More basic.
That's going to be my wedding cake if I ever have a wedding.
A block of cheese. It'll be a wheel of gouda, wheel of cheddar.
Which is a horrific idea for your wedding, by the way.
Why?
Because with your lactose intolerance and the confined spaces of,
I'm thinking a marquee or something.
I mean, I wouldn't eat it.
And the Thomas L family with similar gut issues,
crowded around a block of cheese.
If one person decides to light a cigarette inside that tent,
the whole thing's going to explode.
I wouldn't eat it at the wedding because obviously that's just disaster.
But, you know, I feel like it'd be all right.
But have you ever heard of any of your mates?
Because obviously that's a really unusual, you know,
if you won that, I guess kind of cool to give to your potential fiancé.
Yeah, my friend Nixon doesn't like the idea of wearing a ring.
And so instead of a wedding ring, he has a wedding watch.
And he's played the game quite well because a guy's wedding ring, he has a wedding watch. And his...
Weird.
Yeah, yeah.
And he's played the game quite well because a guy's wedding ring is like...
Actually, mine's handed down to me from my dad, so I paid nothing.
But a guy's wedding ring is not as expensive as girls'.
He's gone, no, no, I want what you got.
So if her wedding ring was worth three and a half grand,
he spent the same on a watch.
So now he has a really expensive watch and he wears that instead of wearing a wedding ring. So I and a half grand. He spent the same on a watch. So now he has a really expensive watch
and he wears that instead of wearing a wedding ring.
So I've got a question.
So when he goes out,
do people just always think he's single then?
I haven't asked that,
but he has a lovely watch though.
I bet he does.
Yeah.
A watch that might attract...
Oh, he doesn't matter.
He'd be the first person to go,
excuse me, I'm married.
Look at my watch.
I've never heard of a guy doing that before.
It's just something different.
It's like, what are other versions of it?
Some people wear a ring on a necklace instead of around their finger.
And now that I think about it, I would like to, you know,
wear a jet ski sometimes under my legs, you know,
because that's what I would like.
It doesn't work like that.
No.
He's gone, it's jewellery for jewellery.
No.
It's a piece of symbolism for a piece of symbolism.
He's buying a watch.
I want a jet ski.
Fine.
Fine.
I don't have to propose to you.
Yes.
I'll let your partner know that they need to buy you a jet ski.
Would you have rathered, like if someone was proposing to you,
would you rather something like that than a ring?
Well, my ring's got sentimental value.
No, but that's the wedding ring.
I'm talking the engagement ring.
Men don't get an engagement ring.
They can.
Some guys do.
Yeah.
Well, then, yeah, I want a watch too.
Or a jet ski.
These all sound fun.
You're talking in hypotheticals.
I want a Harley. Yeah, an engagement Harley. You're talking in hypotheticals. It's never good.
I want a Harley.
Yeah, engagement Harley.
Yeah, an engagement Harley.
Yeah, yeah.
And then you can get it engraved.
It'll be great.
And do you have to propose
to yourself with it?
Probably.
Yeah, yeah.
I wonder if there's other ones
out there though,
other alternatives.
You don't like the watch idea
but are people doing
something different
instead of wearing a ring
out there that makes sense for you?
Yeah, I want to know
if people just broke tradition said stuff getting a ring for you. Yeah, I want to know if people just broke tradition
said stuff getting a ring, that's
lame. I want to get something, you know
sentimental maybe or something cool
Which is something cool, yeah. What did you propose
with? 0800
dials at M. We don't want anyone
that's going to call up and say a ring
Tears like strawberries
Yeah, that's the idea. Or you can
text us on 9696
Bree and Clint
Look, if you're stumped for ideas about what engagement ring you want to buy
I mean, Domino's is running a competition
Where you could win a $9,000 engagement ring
That looks like a piece of pizza
Yeah, it's a slice of pizza on top of the band, right?
Yeah, it's got rubies and diamonds It's the pepper, right? Yeah. Jewel-encrusted pizza. It's got rubies and diamonds and the pepperoni and the cheeses.
It's ugly.
It's ugly as hell.
But it's worth $9,000.
And for a pizza fan, it's a beautiful gesture because you've gone,
this is something that you like and I love you,
so I'm going to swallow the fact that you'll be wearing this ugly ring
for the rest of your life because I love you.
Maybe you met at a pizza shop.
Maybe it ties into your relationships.
Maybe they had horrific acne when they were younger.
So you're like, here you go, pizza face.
That's not okay.
We're talking about breaking the mould of what you give to someone
when you get engaged.
I said, why not get engaged with a jet ski?
You only said that because you disapproved of my friend's engagement watch.
I just think, oh, yeah, watch, not that different from a ring.
Exactly right.
Boring.
Next.
Anushka, hi.
Hi.
Anushka, what did you or your partner propose with?
Well, it wasn't me, but one of my friends,
she doesn't wear jewellery,
so she's got an engagement greenstone.
Oh, I like that.
That's cute.
Yeah, that's a really good idea.
Was it like a necklace or a ring or a bracelet?
What was it?
It's a necklace.
Oh, cool.
Beautiful.
Okay, that's a good idea.
Let's talk to Matt.
Hey, Matt.
Yeah, hey, guys. Matt, do you know someone who proposed with something different?
Yeah, a bit along the lines of what you mentioned, Bree.
Knew these guys together for about 10 years
and they're into sort of professional or amateur sailing racing together.
Yeah.
And instead of a ring, they both decided they wanted a new boat
to sort of do better with their sailing,
so they built the boat and called it Diamond.
See, this is the kind of relationship I want to be in.
An engagement boat.
An engagement boat.
That's good.
It's good if they're both into it.
You just, I just hear that it's going to be the man's idea.
He's going to go, babe, babe,
instead of me buying you a ring.
Should we get a boat?
Should we get a boat?
And she's like, well, I'd love to have a boat,
but it's always been my dream to have a ring as well.
He goes, yeah, yeah, yeah, but we could get a great boat.
We'll call it Diamond.
And you can ride it.
I'll drive it, obviously.
But you can come on it.
You can come on it sometimes when the boys aren't on it.
But, oh, it'll be our thing.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
We had a text from someone.
I don't know if we managed to get them on, but they had an engagement Labrador.
They got a puppy for an engagement present.
See, I don't mind that.
The puppy runs in, and most of the time, usually you get a puppy and a ring, and the ring's
attached to the puppy's collar.
If you just get the puppy, what happens when the engagement puppy dies?
You know?
That's why you buy the ring as the backup.
Bree and Clint.
Oh, my God.
I heard she bought all her followers.
She would.
She's such a vet.
It's time for Brie and Clint's Insta Fame Game.
Pretty simple game.
Producer Ellie will give us different celebrities' Instagrams
and we just have to guess how many people follow that Instagram.
Hello, Producer Ellie.
Hello.
Hi.
Okay, that's my cue.
All right.
We are not paying you by the minute.
No, no.
Okay, so your first one for today,
she did an amazing performance yesterday at the Super Bowl.
Shakira Shakira.
Oh, Shakira Shakira.
How many followers is Shakira Shakira?
Is Shakira's handle Shakira Shakira? Is it? No, Shakira, Shakira. How many followers is Shakira, Shakira? Is Shakira's handle Shakira, Shakira?
Is it?
No, I don't think it is.
It should be.
It should be, eh?
I guess that leaves the door open for someone to take Shakira, though.
All right, for Shakira, Shakira.
Clint, you've put $13 million.
Brie, you've put $58 million.
I've gone too big.
No, Shakira has $62.6 million.
Boom.
She's got you.
Do you reckon that was from yesterday?
Yeah, maybe.
It went through the roof after yesterday.
I am.
Have you seen all the videos of that weird tongue thing she did?
The la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
Apparently she came out and explained why.
What did she say?
I didn't read it.
Nice.
All right, your next celeb performed alongside Shakira.
It's J-Lo.
Oh, J-Lo.
J-Lo.
See, if we did a tiny bit of thinking about what questions you're going to ask,
we could have researched these.
But that would be cheating, so I would never do that.
J-Lo.
J-Lo.
All right, for J-Lo, Clint, you've put $80 million.
Brie, you've put $125 million. Surely not. Surely she does. It's J-Lo, Clint, you've put $80 million. Brie, you've put $125 million.
Surely not.
Surely she does.
It's J-Lo.
J-Lo has $112 million.
Jeez.
Is that for me?
That was for you, Brie.
It's 2-0 to Brie today.
Brie, you can take it out here.
Oh, yes.
Yes, you could.
All right.
Hang on, let me guess what the next one's going to be.
So we've had Shakira, J-Lo.
Who else is in the halftime show? Daddy Yankee. I bet the next one's going to be. So we've had Shakira, J-Lo. Who else is in the halftime show?
Daddy Yankee.
I bet the next one's going to be Daddy Yankee.
Oh, I follow him, so.
Now your next one,
choreographed the Super Bowl performance halftime show, J-Lo.
It is Paris Goebel, Kiwi Gal.
That's a tough one.
Yeah.
I have been on her Instagram.
I was on her account when all the yummy stuff was happening.
Ah, yes, yes.
And I didn't look at how many followers she had.
Nice.
Good work.
From Paris Goebel, Clint, you've put 500,000.
Yeah, I've gone too much.
Marie, you've put 1.2 million.
Paris Goebel has 1.3 million.
Get in.
That's a game.
I killed it today.
She's got him. You were so close on all of them. Well's a game. I killed it today. She's got in.
You were so close on all of them.
Well, not really.
A little too close.
You were quite close, actually.
Well done.
Congratulations.
I love how any time you just can't let me have the win,
you have to accuse me of stuff.
I didn't accuse you of anything.
I want to say I won that fair and bloody share.
No, you did.
And you won last week 3-0 as well.
Come on, Clint, where you at?
Oh, come on, where you at, son?
I know, that's what everyone's asking.
Where's Clint at?
Interesting.
Oh, get out.

Bree and Clint.
Look, I don't want to alarm anyone in the studio or people listening,
but I think I may potentially have evaded police yesterday.
May have potentially, possibly evaded police how?
Well, there's a few bits and pieces of the story that could go either way.
But yesterday I was driving down a certain road,
coming up to a set of lights,
and it was a four-way intersection set of lights.
Yeah.
So as I was coming up to turn right on the set of lights,
the yellow light or the amber definitely had gone.
I sped up a little bit, just a tiny bit, to make the light.
Essentially, I went through a very yellow light.
A very, very yellow light.
Very, but it was still yellow.
Yeah.
But it was very yellow.
So you shouldn't speed up to get those.
No, absolutely not.
So I'm in the wrong.
But everybody has.
So, yeah.
At some point.
Fine.
And I'm going to say I was in the wrong.
Yeah, fine.
But that's not evading the law.
No.
That's just running your luck a little bit.
Yeah, which you should not do.
Yeah.
But I felt like it would have been more dangerous for me to stop.
That's what I would have told the police.
That's what you would have told the police officer as you sped up to get the light.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was wrong.
I knew I was in the wrong.
That's okay.
And as I was doing it, I've looked to my right, sitting the first car waiting to come the
other way, a police car.
Right.
And you had that stomach drop feeling?
I was like, you idiot, you deserve this.
You knew that it was very yellow.
I mean, it went red probably as I was in the middle of the intersection.
We get it.
It was very, very yellow.
I know, just wanted to make sure.
So what, you pulled over and handed yourself in to the law?
No.
You pulled over and waited for your comeuppance
because you knew you were guilty?
No.
Right.
I thought to myself, okay, well, I mean, that's a 50-50 yellow light.
It could go either way.
Maybe the police have something better to do
than pull me over right now.
So as I was driving, I've obviously looked in my rear vision mirror
to see if that police car was going to do a U-bolt and come get me.
So in my rear vision, I've seen the police car go to turn right
because they were obviously going the other way.
And I was like, oh, thank God they're turning right.
I'm all good here.
And I was probably about 250 metres up the road by now
and then I've looked once more and all I could see was the police lights.
You know where you can see them from a mile away?
Yeah, yeah.
And I could see the police lights just in my rear vision mirror
just going off.
Yeah.
And I could see them kind of, I couldn't really see what they were doing,
but I could see something happening where it was coming back the other way
and I was like, here we go.
They were turning around in the intersection.
So you pulled over?
Kind of.
I pulled down a side street.
I pulled into a side street and then maybe parked and waited.
Right, so you got out of the way.
I just thought maybe they were off to an emergency.
Well, they could have been.
You don't know.
Look, I'm not proud of it.
I actually pulled down one street and then pulled down another street
and then parked.
And then I sat there and I waited.
To do that thing where you lie your driver's seat flat so there's no one in that car.
And then I saw them fly past with the sirens and the lights on.
Yeah.
And I was like, okay, well, coast is clear.
So, yeah.
And then I decided, I was like, how long do I sit there and wait for?
Because what if they were after me? They might not have been after me. This is what I was
thinking. Yeah. And that's when I waited probably, oh, I want to say a good four or five minutes.
And I decided, you know what, this is stupid. Let's just go. Yeah. So I get in the car.
So I start my car and I get back on the same road that I was on
and the same car, the same road that the police car was on.
And I literally see over this hill the police lights
and I was like, I'm done here.
I'm gone.
I'm gone.
No bullshit.
They'd pulled up to an accident up the road.
Oh, so you're fine.
Well, I didn't know
that at the time. Technically, I
thought I was evading police.
Yeah, and how did it make you feel? Did it make you feel like a badass?
I felt like a badass. Did you feel alive?
I did. Did you feel like a rush of energy
go through your body? I was like, this is what Vin
Diesel feels like. Yeah. I thought
this was going to be like some pursuit type thing.
You've just gone through a red light and then pulled into
a driveway until the coast is clear.
No, but I was crafty.
Would you have done that?
Nah, you would have pulled over and had your license ready.
It's not about me.
This is about you.
No, but would you have?
No, I would have left the scene.
Absolutely.
I would have left the scene.
Unless, yeah, I think you're okay in that situation.
Do you reckon they were ever after me?
Maybe now.
Bree and Clint. We started an investigation yesterday on the show
when I told you, Clint, that I'd heard some very strong rumours
about this particular guy who works at a pie shop.
So there's a pie shop around the corner from my partner's house
and the whole flat started talking about how hot the guy who worked there was.
It was very unanimous that he was one of the most attractive men they've ever seen
and he made great pies.
We've identified the pie shop as Muzz's Pies in Mount Albert, Auckland.
Is that right?
That's correct.
And we've also put a caveat on it that anyone going to do their own research
needs to buy a pie.
That's the deal.
And we spoke about it on the show yesterday.
We got flooded with texts confirming that they've seen Muzz
and they can confirm his hotness.
But I feel like we need to go a step further
and maybe put a call into Muzz's
Pies.
Okay, we're about to call Muzz's Pies.
What are our objectives here?
What do we want to get?
Ultimately, I mean, what do we want to find out?
We want to speak to Muzz.
We want to speak to him.
Let's try and talk to Muzz and find out, like, at the very least, his relationship status.
Yeah.
I mean, that's something we probably need to find out.
Okay, let's put in a call now and see where we can get to.
Good afternoon, Muzzify.
It's Carla speaking.
Hi, Carla.
I was after young Muzz if he's there.
Young John.
Young John, that's the one.
No, he's gone today.
He's gone.
Gone.
Oh, what time does he usually leave?
Probably around 1, 1.30.
I'm going to have him call you tomorrow.
Carla, just while I've got you, I just was calling up young Maz, young John,
because I wanted to put to rest a few rumours that I've heard.
Okay.
The rumours that I've heard, I've never actually,
I've had pies from your shop, which are amazing, really lovely pies,
but I've heard from quite a few people now that young John
or young Muz is quite attractive.
Yeah, well, we've had some mothers from the mothers group
come running down the street a couple of years ago saying,
there's a new good-looking dude there.
And I thought, well, that's funny because I'm the new one
and I'm no dude.
In your opinion, Carla,
from woman to woman,
what were your thoughts and what are your thoughts?
You know, obviously you've seen... I'm old enough to be
his mother, but yeah, he's alright.
You might be old, but you're not dead, Carla.
Good on you, darling. Still got a pulse, eh?
Hey, always. Always. I love it.
Carla, do you mind if I jump in here?
Hi. Just from a male's perspective.
Is young John, is he original mother's son?
Is it a family lineage?
He's the cousin, yeah.
Cousin.
Cousin, right.
He's the cousin of the original.
So the old boy that's here in Mount Albert
is the uncle of the original mother.
And then Murray is mother.
And how hot's he?
Oh, yeah. We won't is Muzza. And how hot's he? Oh, yeah.
We won't keep you too long.
Just quickly,
do you believe that young John,
who is the hot guy from Muzza's Pies
that we've been told about,
do you think it contributes to sales
in at Muzza's Pies?
Oh, my God.
I'm sure his charms and,
yep, yep, definitely.
We've heard he's a very lovely guy
along with being very, very hot.
Get on your way.
Just two quick questions.
Do you think he knows that he's hot?
Oh, I think so.
He's that hot, is he, Carla?
And the other question was, will he be in there tomorrow
if we were to just casually pop in for a pie?
Randomly.
Of course, yeah, absolutely.
He'll be here up until about 1 o'clock.
All right, we'll see you at 11.30.
Good on you.
Love your way. Have a good afternoon. See you, 11.30. Good on you. Love your way.
Have a good afternoon.
See you, Carla.
Bye.
Well, I guess it settles it.
I guess we're going to get a pie.
We didn't even ask the one question we should have asked.
What's that?
Is Muzza single?
Oh, yeah.
We've got to call her back.
This is quite inappropriate if he's not.
Very.
We've got to cancel everything.
Maybe.
Maybe not.
Is he in a relationship and happy?
Yeah, well, that's another question.
No, we're not playing that game.
Good afternoon, Mother 5.
Carla speaking. Carla, it's us again.
So sorry, mate. We forgot
the most important question that we called
for the reason we were calling in the first
place. Is he over 18?
Okay, no, that's
an important one. That's a good question. Is it?
Yes, yes. Here's end
the most important question, Carla.
He's married. Oh. Are you
serious? Yeah. Are they happy though?
Of course they are.
Oh my God. We're just
kidding. We're just kidding. Hot muzz is
married. What are we doing?
What are we doing? We can still look, right?
Too right. It's not a crime to look.
Like I said, you can still breathe.
You've got a pulse.
Get in there.
All right.
Thanks, Carla.
You've really shattered some people's hopes and dreams today.
Oh, Carla.
Sorry, guys.
Appreciate your time, mate.
Have a good one.
See you.
Bye-bye.
Married.
Damn it.
Isn't that always the case?
Does that mean it's over?
Are we leaving hot Muzz alone?
Hell no.
I need to see what Muzz looks like still.
And he might have a brother.
You never know.
You know you're in a relationship, eh?
Yeah, I forgot that when we were talking to her.
Bree and Clint.
Hey.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger.
All right, birthday banger time
We'll take your birthdays
We'll figure out what was number one on your 16th birthday
Hello Joanne
Hi Jo
Hi
What's your birthday?
13th of November
1967
Oh yes Joanne, we love these ones
You were 16 in 1983 on the 13th of November.
And, Joanne, this is your birthday banger.
Fighting together, making love with each other.
Everyone now.
Islands in the stream, that is what we are.
No one in between.
Dolly and Kinney, Islands in the Stream.
What a tune, Joanne.
It's not too bad.
It's not too bad at all.
It's pretty damn good.
It's a classic.
Yeah, it is.
Definitely a classic.
Don't worry what era it came from, Joanne.
You can't control that, okay?
You can just revel in the fact that your birthday banger is a banger.
One of the best duets of all time.
Let's get another one on for Julie.
Hey, Julie.
Hi, Jules.
Hey, how are you?
Good, thanks.
What's your birthday, Julie?
It's the 5th of July, 1976.
All right, you were 16 in 1992 on the 5th of July.
And back in the 90s, this had a number one hit.
I like big butts and I cannot lie.
You other brothers can't deny.
Go, Julie.
Go, Julie.
Go, Julie.
Wasting a round thing in your face, you get sprung.
You remember that one, Jules?
Unfortunately, yes.
Fun fact, Brie knows all the words to this song.
Sadly.
I've seen her do it at karaoke,
and I've seen her do it at some inappropriate karaoke places,
like these real rugby club type settings,
and Brie gets up there and does a real animated version of Baby Got Back. And I've seen her do it in some inappropriate karaoke places, like these real rugby club type settings.
And Brie gets up there and does a real animated version of Baby Got Back.
It's very good for us.
No one else really understands what's going on. I've nearly been arrested before, Julie.
Do you like your birthday banger, Julie?
It's okay.
All right.
It's a bit of a banger, I suppose.
It's pretty well known, that song, I would say.
I'd give it that.
Brandon is up last.
Hey, Brandon.
Hi, Brando.
How's it going?
Good, thank you.
What's your birthday?
23rd of the 1st, 92.
All right.
You were 16 in 2008 on the 23rd of January,
and this is your birthday banger.
You cut me open and I keep bleeding, keep, keep bleeding.
Leona Lewis.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, yes.
Oh, yes, Brandon.
It's an emotional banger.
Have you cried to that one before, Brando?
What was that, sorry?
Have you cried to that one before, be honest?
No.
No.
Yeah, neither.
Have you cried to Baby Got Back before?
Wait there, wait there.
We've got a decision to make.
Leona Lewis.
Who sings Baby Got Back?
Sir Mix-a-Lot.
Sir Mix-a-Lot, that's right. How could you forget
Sir Mix-a-Lot?
Or Dolly Parton and
Kenny Rogers'
Islands in the Stream?
I mean...
Together.
Together today.
Three, two, one.
Baby Got Back. Yeah, cool, one. Baby got back.
Yeah, cool.
We've made the right decision.
It's a change.
And with the special commendation for Islands in the Stream, I feel.
Absolutely.
I do love that track.
Julie, you win birthday banger.
Congratulations, mate.
Nice work.
Awesome.
Thank you very much.
Oh my God.
Becky, look at that.
It is so big.
She looks like one of those rap guys' girlfriends.
You know, who understands
those rap guys?
They only talk to her because she looks
like a total prostitute, okay?
I mean, her butt
is just so big.
I can't believe it's so round.
It's out there. I mean,
gross. Look.
She's just so black.
I like big butts and I cannot lie.
You other brothers can't deny.
And when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist and a round thing in your face, you get sprung.
Wanna pull up tough cause you notice that butt was stuffed.
Deep in the jeans she's wearing.
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring.
Oh baby, I wanna get witch good job and take your picture.
My whole voice tried to warn me, but that butt you got makes me so horny.
Ooh, rump of smooth skin, you say you want to get in my bins?
Well, use me, use me, because you ain't that average groupie.
I seen her dancing to hell with romancing.
She's sweat, wet, got it going like a turbo vet.
I'm tired of magazines saying flat butts are the thing.
And the average black man in Asking Black, she got to pack much back.
So, fellas, fellas, has your girlfriend got your butt?
Tell me.
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake that healthy butt.
Baby got back. I like them round and big.
And when I'm throwing a gig, I just can't help myself.
I'm acting like an animal.
Now here's my scandal.
I want to get you home and up, double up, up, up.
I ain't talking about Playboy
because silicone parts are made for toys.
I want them real thick and
juicy. So find that juicy double.
Mix a lot, sing trouble. Begging for
a piece of that bubble. So I'm looking at
rock videos. Not any bimbos
walking like hoes. You can have them
bimbos. I'll keep my women like Flojo.
A word to the thick soul sisters,
I want to get with ya.
I won't cuss or hit ya, but I got to be straight when I say I want to.
Till the break of dawn.
Baby, got it going on.
A lot of simps won't like this song.
Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it.
And I'd rather stay and play.
Cause I'm long and I'm strong.
And I'm down to get the friction on.
So ladies, ladies, if you want to roll my Mercedes, turn around, stick it out.
Even white boys got the shout.
Baby got back.
Baby got back.
Yeah, baby.
When it comes to females, Cosmo ain't got nothing to do with my selection.
36, 24, 36.
Only if she's 5'3". So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playing workout tapes by Fonda.
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda.
My anaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hun.
You can do side bends or sit-ups, but please don't lose that butt.
Some brothers want to play that hard roll and tell you that the butt ain't gold.
So they toss it and leave it, and I pull up quick to retrieve it.
So Cosmo says you're fat.
Well, I ain't down with that.
Because your waist is small and your curves are kicking.
And I'm thinking about sticking to the beanpole games and the magazines.
You ain't it, Miss Thing.
Give me a sister, I can't resist her.
Red beans and rice didn't miss
her some number here tried to diss because his girls are on my list he had game but he chose to
hit him and i pull up quick to get with him so ladies if the butt is round and you want a triple
throw down dial 1-900-MIX-A-LOT and kick them nasty thoughts baby got back
baby got back. Baby got back. Ziddy and Bree and Clint. They mix a lot.
It's a winner of Birthday Banger today. She got much back.
Little in the middle, but she got much back.
There we go.
From what?
1992.
1992.
That's our Birthday Banger for the day. Probably not that late, but of course it resurfaced with Nicki Minaj's hit Anaconda,
which had a massive sample of that song in her song.
Yeah.
I looked up some statistics on it.
Sir Mix-A-Lot, how much do you think he's worth?
Since 1992?
Yeah.
I reckon he's one of those guys who blew it like MC Hammer.
Apparently they reckon he's worth about 20 million
Really?
So he makes a lot
Yeah
And that song Baby Got Back made over 100 million dollars
Wow
Good for him
That's crazy isn't it?
Yeah
We've got some audio here that producer Ben has just put on the wall
It's a performance of Brie doing Baby Got Back
I don't know where this has come from We don't have enough time But I don't We don't know, we don't have enough time that producer Ben has just put on the wall. It's a performance of Brie doing Baby Got Back.
I don't know where this has come from.
We don't have enough time.
But I don't... We don't know.
We don't have enough time.
It's going to...
My God.
Becky, look at her butt.
I said we're not playing this again.
It is, like, so big.
She looks like one of those...
When did we do this?
...good guy's girlfriend.
It was the end of last year.
Yeah, it was the Friday Oki finale.
I'd like to forget it.
They overtook her because she looks like a total...
All right, enough.
I mean, look.
Her butt is just so big.
Why do I sound American?
I can't believe it's so round.
It's like out there.
Just a little bit.
I mean, it's like gross.
Look.
She's just so whack.
I like big butts and I cannot lie.
You other ones can't deny.
And when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist and a round thing in your face, you
Is it over yet?
You lost this Friday OKA.
Badly.
Bree and Clint.
Something we've talked about on this show before is obviously, you know, when you go
on a date with someone and sometimes they come up with an excuse, you believe, as to
why they don't want another date.
Or you get ghosted and you never find out why.
Yeah, the whole thing seems like it was going well
and then it just goes cold, right?
Do you feel like you would like to actually know the real reason?
I think initially you do,
but I think maybe if you thought about it enough,
maybe you don't.
If it was constructive, I would want to know.
Because I think that most of the time the reason you get ghosted
is because they just, it's like that movie,
they just knock that into you.
Yeah, but is it that?
Yeah.
I feel like sometimes there might be a reason.
You've seen that movie though and they try and overthink it
and they go maybe he got called away to war
and he had to urgently leave in the middle of the night
and when he comes back he'll look me up.
Maybe that's what it is.
It's not really generally ever anything like that.
Maybe he's run out of credit.
People don't – it's not a thing anymore.
Like he's just – they're just not.
They just didn't want to, you know?
There might be a reason within that reason.
Yeah.
And there's a new app that I found very interesting called the Helium app.
And it's a new dating app that's taking off apparently.
And I think this is really, I don't know, it could be a really good idea
and it also could be a really harsh idea where essentially you have a profile
and if you go out with someone, they can give you like a rating afterwards.
Not a rating in –
Like that Black Mirror episode.
Everyone's got like an Uber rating on them and stuff like that.
Kind of.
Kind of like an Uber rating.
But in this, yeah, and I think that they can actually give you a rating
out of a certain number, but they can also use certain tags
that describe what they thought of you.
Like LinkedIn.
Kind of like LinkedIn.
So some of the words that people have used to describe people on this app are cute, chill, funny, cringe.
Psycho.
Ghost.
Sleazy.
Hot.
Oh, right.
So it goes both ways.
So as a dater, you probably don't want to ghost someone because you don't want to get a bad review.
Because I was thinking that this just worked. That if I go on a date with you and I don't want to ghost someone because you don't want to get a bad review. Because I was thinking that this just worked,
that if I go on a date with you and I don't like it,
I'll just go and post a negative review about you.
But it's not so much about that, right?
It's encouraging you to behave better in dating situations
so that your rating doesn't go down.
But obviously, this is a certain type of app
where if you ghost someone,
other people on the app are going to know that you've done that.
That you're a ghoster, yeah.
Pretty much.
Yeah.
They won't still know the reason why you got ghosted.
No, but they'll know it's in your nature.
Exactly.
Which you never, and obviously we talked about before,
you never really hear the reason why you get ghosted.
No.
And we thought because we've got a radio show,
maybe we can get a few explanations from people as
to why they've ghosted people.
Are you a ghoster? Have you done it?
Yeah, we can keep you anonymous. That's fine.
We're just keen to hear about it. Have you
ghosted someone in the past
and are you willing to share the reason
why? Like, was there actually something
more to it or did they
have horrifically bad breath and you
just couldn't bring yourself to
see them ever again even to explain them the reason why i don't know maybe you just maybe
it's time to get off your chest constructive exercise we want to know we want to learn
if you're um brave enough we'd love you to call through 0800 dial zm you can be anonymous
why did you ghost someone you can also text us on 9696.
What was the real reason you ghosted someone?
Because obviously there's a reason that you stopped talking to someone.
Yeah, you didn't tell them, but are you willing to tell us?
That's what we want to know this afternoon.
We're getting some really interesting messages.
There's some very interesting texts.
We haven't even managed to get this guy's name yet, but he's here.
Hello, ZDM, are you there?
Yeah. What is your name? Did you want to share your name? I'll stay anonymous. to get this guy's name yet, but he's here. Hello, ZDM, are you there? Ah, yeah.
What is your name?
Did you want to share your name?
I'll stay anonymous.
Okay, anonymous.
What was the reason you ghosted someone?
So I met this girl on Tinder about a year ago,
and she was kind of like a friend of a friend,
so I knew her, sort of.
And we were at a restaurant and that kind of thing and started to get a wee bit flirty.
But as we were leaving, she sort of thought it would be funny
to playfully fart on me, I guess.
What do you mean playfully fart on you?
Well, she was kind of like flirting.
But then she just said, like, come here.
And I came a wee bit closer and then she just sort of turned around
and farted on my leg, I guess.
Oh, see, I find that endearing.
She's confident.
No, not on a first date.
Maybe not first date, but maybe second date.
So you just stopped replying to her messages anonymous?
Yeah, it was a wee bit weird.
What if it was into the relationship?
Would you have ghosted her then?
Oh, no, it would have been funny then, I guess.
But just because it was the first date.
It's a very aggressive first date move.
She's confident.
Yeah. Well, I very aggressive first date move. She's confident. Yeah.
Well, I would have found it funny.
She obviously read the room wrong, though.
Yeah, probably.
I'm not saying it's a bad thing.
If you find the right person and you guys want to casually fart on each other on the first date,
more power to you.
I think it's kind of funny.
But read the room.
You would.
This person also wants to be anonymous.
Hello?
Hi.
Anonymous.
Why did you go, someone?
Well, I was talking to this guy on a dating app for probably about a week,
and he sounded like a really nice guy.
And then we got to a point where we thought, oh, we should catch up for coffee.
And he suggested I go around to his house, and I said, no,
I'm not really comfortable with that for a first mate. So I suggested a cafe.
He was like, no, no, you have to come to my house for a first meet.
And I was like, no, no, no, thanks.
He's like, but why?
And he said, because I'm wearing an ankle bracelet.
It was in home detention.
Amazing.
So to say, I didn't know.
I pretty much unmatched.
You didn't go.
I was going to say, and how was the wedding?
I did actually go and far to find out why, because I was curious, and it was actually
something quite serious.
So yeah, as soon as I found that out.
Fair enough.
Good work.
You've done your research, and you needed to, obviously.
Jesus.
I feel like a person who has an ankle bracelet probably knows why they were ghosted.
Oh, yeah.
They're not sitting there and going, after he's dropped the...
Was it my teeth?
After he's dropped the home detention bit, he's not going, what did I say?
Yeah, was it my teeth?
What was the thing?
What did I do wrong?
Bella, hi.
Hello.
Bella, was it you that ghosted someone?
I ghosted someone.
I definitely did.
What was the reason?
So I'd been dating a guy for about three weeks
and I'd been getting a little serious.
So we went home and we were doing some indoor gardening.
Yeah, girl.
And in the middle of that gardening procedure,
he asked me whether I could be his sister
or pretend to be his sister.
Pardon me?
No, no, no, no.
We need a red flag button in this.
Right.
I was like, nah.
I'm shocked.
I don't usually get that shocked on this show, Bella,
because we've had some crazy stories.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
The worst bit of this is you're mid-gardening.
Like, you're already...
Like, mid-gardening. And I literally... Mid-gardening, and I literally,
so I've never done this before,
but I stopped gardening.
I went to the bathroom, and that was the end of it.
I literally get it.
I would have got out of there too.
It could have been worse.
Yeah.
I really could miss Ben.
I really could miss him.
He could have asked you to...
He could have said, can I call you mum?
Have you ever seen someone do anything questionable, I guess, at the traffic lights?
I've seen someone watching adult material at the traffic lights.
Have you?
Yeah, it was really early in the morning when I used to do breakfast radio.
It was probably like four in the morning.
Were they using one of those Uber driver windscreen mounts for their phone?
No, they were just holding it at the traffic lights.
Really?
Yeah.
And then I've also seen someone eating cereal.
Oh yeah, I've seen eating cereal.
I've seen shaving.
Putting on makeup is pretty common.
I've seen someone brushing their teeth at the traffic lights before.
Oh yeah.
And then they open the door and then they spit it out the door.
And then the light goes green and they drive off.
It's definitely off, but some people are in a rush.
I saw someone yesterday who, I don't know if they were in a rush
or if they were just like a, just a weird type of person.
So I, you know that, you know when there's two lanes
and you're kind of going at the same speed as someone for a while.
Yeah.
And so you can kind of observe what's going on.
That's what happened with me and this.
I assume there were a couple.
It was a man and a woman in the car next to me.
And they weren't young.
They were like probably late 40s, early 50s looking.
And the lady in the driver's seat was, you know,
those one litre tubs of ice cream that you can get?
Not ice cream, yoghurt.
Oh, yeah, the yoghurt, the round ones.
The round tubs of like, it's like fresh and fruity
or meadow fresh or like a big tub of Yoplait type thing.
Yeah.
She's drinking yoghurt at the traffic lights
directly out of the tub.
Just like tipping it up like it's a smoothie
and having a big chug of yogurt which
i was like right okay cool and then she was thirsty but also hungry yeah but which yogurt
fills both of those boys it does fit both of those things and then she passed the tub of yogurt to
the man in the passenger seat okay then the lights went green and they drove off and i drove with
them and then when we got to the next traffic light, I pulled up next to them again.
And he no longer had the tub of yogurt and she had the tub of yogurt.
And she was looking at this tub of yogurt like she loved it.
Like it was the best thing she'd ever seen.
And she was two-handedly, not while driving, tipping it up and just going.
Really.
Getting into it.
Really enjoying her yogurt.
The other guy, I was like, well, he's enjoyed some yogurt too.
I wonder what his take on it is.
And I looked closer at him and he had like a long, scraggly, like, you know, late era Jesus type beard?
Yeah.
Or Moses after he's been in.
Long beard.
Long scraggly beard.
And because he had long scraggly beard, he had long whiskers that hang over his lip.
And you know when someone drinks milk and they get a milk moustache?
Imagine that, but it's a man who's dipped his entire moustache
in a one-litre tub of fresh and fruity blueberry yoghurt.
And he had no idea that it was on his lip whatsoever.
Surely he knew.
He didn't, because he wasn't licking his lip.
He wasn't wiping his lip.
He was just sitting there staring straight ahead with yogurt all over his face.
I'm going to say a tub of yogurt, not a car food.
No.
You know?
You know those foods where you're like, oh, car food.
Oh, car food.
Can drink?
Can drink?
Car food.
Car food.
Pie from the gas station?
Car food. Chips? Chips. Car food. Ice, car food. Can drink. Can drink. Car food. Car food. Pie from the gas station. Car food.
Chips.
Chips.
Car food.
Ice block on a stick.
Risky.
Risky.
But I'd do it.
Yeah.
Full tub of fresh and fruity yogurt.
No.
Not for me.
