Starting point is 00:00:00 G'day everybody, welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast. Holy shitball, some big shits went down today, mate. Some big shits. Yeah, mate. Both in the toilet and on the show. You'll hear about it on the show, but basically we've had a very good run with our debut single today. I don't want to give it away because it kind of builds throughout the show. Actually, you could probably help with this if you're listening to the podcast right now. We won't give it away what happens, but the single went live on iTunes and you can buy it.
Starting point is 00:00:27 We know some people probably don't use iTunes anymore. First time I'd opened iTunes in ages. Yeah, but if you can find it in your heart to spend $2.39 and it might be different in the country you're in. It might be cheaper. It's cheaper in Aussie. You can help us get this thing on the charts, which it's already charting
Starting point is 00:00:45 There's a little hint It's doing very well Don't give it away It's doing well It's been a good day But it could be better with your help Can I tell my bad day story just quickly? You want to bring down the mood?
Starting point is 00:00:58 Just because I'm still standing in what I stood in this morning Right Just briefly Yeah, because we had a photo shoot this morning. And the reason I got reminded is you said big shits went down. You didn't stand in shit. No, I didn't stand in shit. We did a photo shoot this morning.
Starting point is 00:01:13 And this is just for the podcast. I didn't want to say this on the radio. We had to take our shoes off because the floor had just been painted in the photo studio. It's one of those white studios, white floor, so you can't see any floor around the people who are being photographed. I take my shoes off and I'm like, I've got to go to the toilet. So stupidly I went to the work toilet in my socks and I stood at the urinal
Starting point is 00:01:33 and then as soon as I came out, you know when you stand in a puddle and then it takes a little while to get it through to your feet. See, this is the problem. Like us ladies, we don't have puddles in our bathrooms. Don't you? No. Don't you? Oh, it's rare.
Starting point is 00:01:50 Last place I worked at the other radio station company, where they shared toilets for all the radio stations. Right. The women's toilets, I never had to see it, but they all told me about it. They had a thing called the phantom pooer. We had that at the radio station I worked at. She pooed on the floor.
Starting point is 00:02:09 Okay, not that. Not that. She would regularly decimate the bowl and then on occasion she would leave one on the floor and we never found her. How do you even get it on the floor? It went on for something crazy like seven years,
Starting point is 00:02:27 which really started to whittle down the suspect list. That's off. It is off. But as I worked there with some good friends who had been there for years, they got more and more nervous. Every time someone in the suspect list left the company and the phantom pooing didn't stop. So they'd be taken off the list they
Starting point is 00:02:45 would be taken off the list but the list would get shorter and the girls who were left would go it's not me but every time someone leaves i look more and more guilty yeah because i'm still here and the pooing is still happening we used to have a the phantom unless it was a copycat copycat do you guys have kanga do you guys have that here what What's Kanga? A Kanga. We had a phantom Kanga. Like a roo. So it's where you sit. So it's where a female or a male sits on the toilet, not where you back your butt up onto it,
Starting point is 00:03:13 but where you squat on it front ways, like in a kangaroo position. Yeah. So you're sitting face forward on the toilet. So you're looking at the wall? So you're looking at the wall. But you're squatting on the toilet. But you're squatting on the toilet. So it's like a squatted rollback? Yeah, and then you do a shit
Starting point is 00:03:27 and then the poo actually hits every part of the bowl possible. And that's called a canger. You had a woman at your work that was doing that? Yes, for years. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Women are disgusting. Pardon you! You're the one
Starting point is 00:03:44 that's got piss on your sock ZM Let's go Now let me see you dance ZM's Brie and Clint The Hot Mess Express has pulled into the station Ladies and gentlemen Today is a big day for us
Starting point is 00:04:02 This is massive Officially we're a part of the iTunes charts. We're charting at the moment. We're in the top 100. We're well inside the top 100. We're in the top 60. We're inside the top 56. Well, we're 56. We're number 56. We're at number 56!
Starting point is 00:04:18 On the dance charts, we're number 6. If you've missed this and you don't know what we're talking about, we are performing as a DJ duo at Float in just nine days, by the way. We got Kings on board to produce our first debut single, and that single is called Send It, and it is currently charting on iTunes. It went on iTunes this morning.
Starting point is 00:04:38 It's also on Apple Music. If you want to stream it, you can do it there, and we are working on Spotify as we speak. You can also Shazam it. So are we about to play it? Actually, let's play it. Let's play it and you can Shazam it. Get your Shazam app out.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Give it a Shazam. And feel free to send us a cheeky little screen grab on our Instagram as well. We'd love to repost you too. You can just tag us in at Bree and Clint. We're excited about it. We're very excited. It's not often that an artist, and I'm calling ourselves artists now, it's not often the artist also has the radio station
Starting point is 00:05:08 to go and play their own song on. Normally they're going, hey, can you guys play our song? Whereas we're going, we're going to play our own song. This is actually a really good system. It's a great system. Because we can just push this song all day. Saatchi should get their own radio show. It'd be great. It'd be nothing but Saatchi on the radio. Anyway, this is us.
Starting point is 00:05:24 This is the Hot Mess Express. Song's called Sender and it's available now. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. ZM, Bree and Clint, that is the Hot Mess Express. There it is, baby.
Starting point is 00:05:38 Song's called Sender. Officially number 56 in the New Zealand iTunes chart right now. And I know people aim to be top 20, maybe even top 40. Nah, the new cool is top 60. Top 60 is where it's at, but we need your help. We could get this thing to number one. I've got a surprise for you.
Starting point is 00:05:55 What? Remember how before we had Look and the Hot Mess Express was, yes, it's 56 in the iTunes chart. Yeah. And we were number, because they'd also break it down to genre. We were the sixth biggest song on the dance chart. Yeah. And we were number, because they'd also break it down to genre. We were the sixth biggest song on the dance chart.
Starting point is 00:06:08 Yeah. We're beating Avicii. I mean, he hasn't released music for a bit, but we're beating Avicii. He was number seven. I just checked again.
Starting point is 00:06:16 The Hot Mess Express is number two. Oh, come on. Come on, we're losing to this song. So, really. We're getting there. I hate how disappointed you were.
Starting point is 00:06:34 Did you think we were going to be number one already? I was hoping. The song's been out for three hours. I can't believe how much it's popping off. Yeah. We did run into a bit of an issue today. So this is our new DJ duo. We're performing at Float this coming weekend in Rotorua.
Starting point is 00:06:52 There's still some tickets available. We'd love you to come and be a part of this performance. Yeah, a lot of people are messaging us saying that they just want to come to see if we fail or rise to the occasion. Yeah, well, that is yet to be seen. We've never performed before. No. I saw we were on iTunes and we're also on Apple Music.
Starting point is 00:07:08 I thought, oh, I wonder if we're on Spotify yet. So I gave it a search. Because we've got that in the works. I searched out The Hot Mess Express. Bad news, and we didn't think to check this, there's already an artist called The Hot Mess Express. How do we not think to check? I saw this too. How do we not think to check? I saw this too.
Starting point is 00:07:26 How do we not think to check that the name had been taken? We're so dumb. And you know what? The Hot Mess Express is taken. Also, Hot Mess Express is taken. Was Brexclit our other option taken? I don't think so. See, I knew we should have gone with Brexclit.
Starting point is 00:07:41 Or Spindiana Jones. Anyway, just be aware of that. Because if you go and stream it and you go, this is not what I thought Brian Clint's music would sound like. If you're listening to this, you're listening to the wrong, the Hot Mess Express.
Starting point is 00:07:59 This is the other Hot Mess Express? Yeah, this is there. It's called Hills. Oh, this is there. It's called Hills. Oh, this is... No, no. As an artist, you've got to appreciate other people's art, okay? Can you give it constructive feedback, please? I'm just glad we're the better Hot Mess Express.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Should we put this in our DJ set? No. If you find yourself listening to this, stop. It's the wrong one. It's the wrong one. Our faces are on the... Yeah, our faces are on the artwork. On the artwork.
Starting point is 00:08:34 If you're buying the right one, our faces are on it. So if you haven't heard about the hack already over the Easter and Anzac Day holiday where you can take three days off and you can get a 10-day break. Yeah, we've done a day. Yeah, we've done it. I mean, if you haven't heard about that, I'm going to tell you about that as well. Okay, sure. Yeah. But essentially this year, there's a number of different hacks where you can take certain days off and 18 days off to be exact. So you can use 18 days of annual leave to give you a 45-day holiday.
Starting point is 00:09:06 Right. So it's across different times of the year, obviously. So it's not 45 days in a row? Not in a row. But it gives you little bursts of holidays. Whose boss is letting them have 45 days off in a row? Yeah, that's crazy. You know what?
Starting point is 00:09:17 That's a good way to make your boss realise that you're not that important to the company. They'll go, God, they haven't been here for a month and a half and the business hasn't fallen over. Maybe we don't need them. Yeah, so that's probably not a good idea. Hey, just stay on holiday, man. Don't come back. Do I still get paid? Nah. Oh. Nah. But thanks. Cool. So the Easter break one, if you haven't heard about it yet, you need to put this in quick because I'm sure other employees at your workplace would have already done it. The only days you need to take off across Easter break and then the Anzac holiday that backs on to the back of it is the 23rd of April, the 24th of April and the 26th of April. So you use
Starting point is 00:09:56 three days of your annual leave? Yes and it gives you a 10 day. And you have 10 full days. Exactly. Long enough to go somewhere. Yes. Long enough to go on an overseas holiday if you like. You could go overseas if you wanted to. You could, yeah. So that's the first one. And then there was some other different holiday hacks around Waitangi Day, which I mean. Oh, we've missed that. We've missed that one.
Starting point is 00:10:14 So I'm going to assume if you took Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, then you'd take four days off. Is that what it was? No, there was like some different ones because different parts around the country in New Zealand had their- Auckland anniversary last week. Exactly. So they were having their anniversary days,
Starting point is 00:10:30 which could give you a bigger block off. So it doesn't really apply to everyone. But the other one is Christmas. You've also got your Labor Day and your Queen's birthday, which everyone knows they're on a Monday this year. Yeah. So you can take extra days off the back of that if you want to. But the Christmas one is the one that I was concentrating on
Starting point is 00:10:48 where you can take seven days of leave and you'll get 17 days off. Okay, how do we do this? So essentially the days you have to take off are Friday the 20th of December, the 23rd and the 24th, also the 27th, the 30th, 31st and the 3rd. So you use how many? You use 7 days of leave and you get 17 days off Yeah, fantastic It's not bad
Starting point is 00:11:11 It's pretty good Because it's in between like you get, you know, your Christmas day and your boxing day Yeah And then even if you're working on the days around Christmas time, no one's there Also, if you just get food poisoning like accidental, like a couple of days before, you can get 20 days. Can you? Well, yeah. How many sick days do we get? Five. But
Starting point is 00:11:31 this, but I believe, I think sick days are cumulative. Like if you don't use them I think they stack up. No! Up to 20. So if you, I don't know, check me on that. But I think if you haven't been using your sick days, you may have 20 of them in the bank.
Starting point is 00:11:47 But the idea is if you get really sick, you can fall back on that. But then they expire. Right. You can't cash them out, yeah. Right. So. I need to go make good friends with a doctor. You can risk it, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:58 Write me a note. A note? A note would do it, yeah. A note? Duh. I like the accumulative thing. Don't do it. Nah, do it. No, A note? Duh. I'd like the accumulative thing. Don't do it. Nah, do it.
Starting point is 00:12:07 No, no, don't do this, but... Could you just make your own doctor's note in Photoshop? But don't do that. No, but do it. But could you? I mean, hypothetically, yes. Brie and Clint. Live from Hollywood with our man on the ground,
Starting point is 00:12:20 Dean McCarthy. Spy.co.nz He's here, everybody. Dean McCarthy, good afternoon..nz He's here, everybody. Dean McCarthy, good afternoon. Hello, Dino. Hello, guys. Good afternoon, everyone. Hey, you've got hot, hot goss regarding Jennifer Lawrence, right?
Starting point is 00:12:33 Well, I do, but before we start, I have to talk about the biggest news story in Hollywood today. It's breaking. You might not have heard about it in New Zealand yet, but the Hot Mess Express, Send. It's charting in New Zealand and everyone in Hollywood is talking about this. I've got Jenna Jackson's been calling me. Get them on the line. I've got Cardi B on the text.
Starting point is 00:12:52 Where are they? It's breaking. It's breaking. You're absolutely right, Dean. In fact, I've just been handed some stats. The Hot Mess Express has just cracked the NZ iTunes top 20. We're number 18. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:13:08 Dean, this is an exclusive interview, mate. Is there anything you'd like to ask us? What inspired the song? Can we hear it? Like, what's next? Well, what inspired the song? You know, just sending it. What's next?
Starting point is 00:13:18 Well, we're hoping to do our first ever performance this week. And other than that, probably relocate to Hollywood and move in with Channing Tatum. What do you reckon, Brie? Pretty much just dropping a knee, Dean, and sending it for all the people of New Zealand. That's what inspired us for the song. And I mean, look, look where we are now. How's life different now that you're superstars?
Starting point is 00:13:37 Yeah, right. Take it all in. Look, Dean, it's a long road for us. We've got to get to number one yet. So, shall we talk about Jennifer Lawrence? Yes. Okay, what's going on with her? I've got some other to number one yet. So, shall we talk about Jennifer Lawrence? Yes. Okay. What's going on with her? I've got some other
Starting point is 00:13:47 breaking news. Jennifer Lawrence, Oscar winner, who we all just adore. She is engaged. No! We were all revealed last night. Can't believe she's off the market. I love her. I love her too. I love her. We could have had a throuple of marriage, you, her and I. But look, here's
Starting point is 00:14:03 the cool news. So, no one really knows this guy. His name is Cook Maroney. He's an art dealer, lives in New York City. No one's ever heard of him. He's not a famous person or anything like that, but he's very rich. Very, very rich. He deals in like million-dollar art pieces and paintings worth $5 million. But he's a really cool dude, and they've been dating for about eight months.
Starting point is 00:14:22 So a little bit surprised that they were engaged because, you engaged because they haven't been seen in public really together. But there you go. She's off the market. Sorry, guys. Sorry if this is judgmental, but Cook Maroney, the art dealer, sounds like the dodgiest underworld criminal name I've ever heard. He sounds like the guy that they hunt on 45 Jump Street or something. We're looking for Cook Maroney.
Starting point is 00:14:44 He's an art dealer. Cook Maroney's his name. Hey, this is really weird news, and this one concerns New Zealand, but somehow, some way, apparently R. Kelly is set to tour New Zealand. Is that true, Dean? I know.
Starting point is 00:15:00 Could it not be the worst-timed tour in the history of tours? Here's the deal. R. Kelly announced on social media that he was touring Australia and New Zealand. A lot of people in Australia are freaking out of this. I'm sure the same in New Zealand. Is he to be allowed? I know in Australia, Chris Brown wasn't allowed to tour when different situations that he was in were made public.
Starting point is 00:15:24 R. Kelly in Denmark. He's banned from Denmark. The authorities are not letting him even enter their country, let alone tour it. So I think this is the worst time tour ever. But I don't think the ticket sales would actually be that good. I think it's possible to cancel it, right? Would anyone go?
Starting point is 00:15:41 It's the people power, right? You can try and block him from the country or you can just not buy tickets to the show and then he won't come. He's not coming if no one goes to the show. I was talking to Bree about it because she said, how can he be allowed into the country?
Starting point is 00:15:52 And that's where I got confused. I don't know if he's actually been criminally convicted or of anything. And if he hasn't, are you able to deny anybody entry into the country? Good point, yeah. I mean, I think that would need to be
Starting point is 00:16:03 some type of proof. You'd have to be convicted of something legally. They can't just kind of not let him in because of rumours or tabloids, I guess. Yeah, you're right. I mean, if you've seen the documentary about him, it is actually one of the most horrific things. I had to stop watching. I could barely watch it.
Starting point is 00:16:18 I only got three episodes through six of them, and it's awful, but I had to stop watching. And if you're thinking about going to that concert when he comes here to New Zealand, please, please do me a favour and watch that documentary before you make a decision. Yeah, that's a good call. You know, educate
Starting point is 00:16:33 yourself and let's hashtag Mute R Kelly. That is what's trending around the world about him for the last however many years. Dean McCarthy, thank you very much. We'll talk to you tomorrow, okay? Bye guys. See you Dean. Bree and Clint. I'm living in a caravan at the moment. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:49 Did you see over the weekend? I had a cool little set up sitting out there on the beach. Yeah, it looks pretty nice. It's out at Takapuna Beach. Whoa, don't tell everyone where my campground is. It's my secret spot. I mean, that's a pretty big beach. It is a pretty big beach. And apart from the shared toilet facilities,
Starting point is 00:17:06 it's pretty luxurious. Like when am I ever going to get to live on the waterfront ever again? When am I going to be rich enough to live right on the beach? Yeah, true. So do you like have to shower in the... No, there's no shower in the caravan, but there's showers in the campgrounds. Right, so you shower in the communal showers.
Starting point is 00:17:23 To be honest, I try and shower at the gym sort of thing. Are you wearing thongs? Yeah. In the shower? Yeah. Because you will definitely get athletes for it. 100%. That's a breeding ground.
Starting point is 00:17:33 Other than that, I mean, let's focus on the positives here. Pretty deluxe. Can go for a swim every morning. Oh, it's a great view. Nice low ceiling. I've whacked my head a lot. I'm quite a tall guy and I've donked my head a bunch of times
Starting point is 00:17:46 is there air con there's windows you can buy campers now that have air con yeah not this one though not that one we've rented it
Starting point is 00:17:57 nice camper van caravan I'm not taking anything away from that but it is a bit annoying because there's no TV. That's the first thing I asked you.
Starting point is 00:18:07 I said, I can deal with the, you know, all that other stuff, but is there a television? No, no television. And no Wi-Fi. So, like, I went to watch a cricket last night. I streamed some of it using my work phone hotspot. But you can't. Mate, you can't do that.
Starting point is 00:18:25 I got done for an $11,000 bill. I know. And that's why I've had to come up with alternatives for watching TV. Right, so how are you going to do that? Well, these are the things I think, because especially when you get home after work too, you just want to veg, right? You just want to like blob out and watch TV.
Starting point is 00:18:42 I love television. Here's five things that you could do too. Maybe you could do a TV detox with me. You could give these things a go. Let me know if you like them. Not keen. Just five different options. You could read a book.
Starting point is 00:18:58 I've never read a book in my life. I'm not about to start now. You could Oh there's lots of dogs You could go around Takapuna Like lots of designer dogs Very rich area
Starting point is 00:19:12 Okay now I'm on board You could go door knocking And walk other people's dogs I like that one Yeah Hot idea And you could do that Anywhere too
Starting point is 00:19:21 Anywhere that has dogs I could get paid for that Yeah Well I'm in there with with my wife Lucy you could always yeah well I know one thing you could always you know
Starting point is 00:19:30 give her a massage yeah exactly her feet she's four months pregnant I mean yeah you should be you should be you could
Starting point is 00:19:40 look at Instagram all night and you know when you look at Instagram and you get bored of it and then you close it and then five minutes later without thinking you just look at yourself and you go, holy shit, I'm back on Instagram. You're like, why am I on here again? Yeah, you could just go on Instagram over and over
Starting point is 00:19:55 and over again. No. You could... No, it's not going to work. Oh, if you're in a relationship you could have a conversation. You could talk to, it's not going to work. Oh, if you're in a relationship, you could have a conversation. You could talk to your partner. Oh.
Starting point is 00:20:10 No. Cool. Okay. Well, if anyone's in the Takapuna area and doesn't mind if I come and like... Yeah, I could sit outside. I could sit on the front lawn and just watch the TV through the window. You want a tip? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:19 This is what I used to do when I didn't have Wi-Fi at home. Yeah. You download everything while you're at work. Perfect. Okay, cool. You might get a stern email from the tech department. We'll deal with that when we come to it. Okay, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:20:32 All right, perfect. Hey, I want to talk about this story. This actually gives me so much anxiety. This poor guy, get this. He's 20 years old. He's driving a delivery truck for his mum, who's a single mum and she's got a business. So he's delivering things.
Starting point is 00:20:47 I think it's paper, Yoss paper it said. I don't know what that is. What's a Yoss paper? I don't know, but he's driving this car around and he's fallen asleep at the wheel. Oh. He's ran into four parked cars. Okay. Which included three Ferrari 488s and a Ferrari F12.
Starting point is 00:21:10 What are the chances? The damage bill apparently is $945,000. This poor kid. He said he was so tired. It was a lapse in concentration. He just happened to run into all four of these cars. What are the chances that when you hit a car, first of all, that it's a Ferrari?
Starting point is 00:21:36 Exactly. Low, there's not many around. Four Ferraris? So they were obviously all... At a Ferrari party. Yeah, and they were driving around, obviously, and they've parked, and then this guy, these poor guys obviously all driving. At a Ferrari party. Yeah. And they were driving around, obviously, and they've parked. And then this guy, these poor guys hit all four.
Starting point is 00:21:48 You shouldn't drive if you're tired. No. This is the message because things like this can happen or worse, someone can die. Exactly. But at the same time, you just got to feel for this guy. Poor guy. So apparently they're from a really poverty stricken family. Oh, don't say there's no insurance.
Starting point is 00:22:04 Don't tell me there's no insurance. I can't stand these stories. They're fighting it out at the moment. But hopefully the insurance company is going to come to the table for some of it. And the insurance company won't. You know who should come to the table? The Ferrari owners.
Starting point is 00:22:18 If you're rich enough to have a Ferrari, you're rich enough to have it insured. Help this poor guy out. Their dad died when they were young and now it's him and his brother and their poor single mum. Anyway, this is so nice. Yeah. Apparently, I don't know how this started, but they've gathered a bunch of donations
Starting point is 00:22:34 and it's totaling $245,000 to assist with covering the cost of damage. That's lovely. Only $700,000 left. You know, I got hit once by a really rich guy. What car was he driving? He was driving quite a nice Audi. And he backed into me. It was completely his fault.
Starting point is 00:22:53 Yeah. And I got out and I said, look, this is your fault. We'll do a swap. You've severely damaged the Honda Accord. The people mover. Yeah, yeah. And he goes, I completely accept that. I go, cool, can we exchange
Starting point is 00:23:07 insurance details? And he goes, I don't have insurance. What do you mean you don't have insurance? He goes, I'm too rich. Yes. He said, I'm too rich for insurance. What do you mean? He goes, for me, I'm a good driver and no matter what I hit, I could afford to fix
Starting point is 00:23:24 it. So I've decided over my lifetime that I would be wasting money if I paid for insurance. I'd rather risk it and just take the chance and if I hit something, I'll just pay for it. Not if he hits the four Ferraris. Not if he hits the four Ferraris. Then he'll really wish he'd gone to the AA or something like that.
Starting point is 00:23:37 That is crazy. I wanted to ask this afternoon on 0800DialZM, what expensive car did you hit? Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah. And what car did you hit? Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah. And what car were you driving? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:48 What's the difference? What's, did you hit a Beamer? Was it a Range Rover? What car did you hit? Yeah. Or maybe you would like, maybe you would like a valet job, like at the airport or something, and you had to park someone's Bugatti or their Lamborghini or something.
Starting point is 00:24:01 Yeah. Or yeah. What expensive car did you wreck? Crash into, yeah. 0800- Dial ZM now. Or you can text us on 946. 9696.
Starting point is 00:24:17 So close. Bree and Clint. Poor delivery driver has hit four cars parked, which cost a total of $945,000 worth of damage. Four Raris. Four Ferraris. Four Ferraris. Four Raris.
Starting point is 00:24:32 Four Raris. That is devastating. That is just... Poor guy. Apparently, insurance is not going to cover it. It'd be like dominoes. It'd be like rich people dominoes. One goes, next one goes.
Starting point is 00:24:43 Can you imagine stepping out and having a look at that? You should see the pictures of this thing. You know what doesn't look incredibly robust either? A Ferrari. They're obviously beautiful vehicles, but they look like if you accidentally hit the kerb a little bit, like if you parked it too close to the kerb, the whole thing would fold in half.
Starting point is 00:24:59 It does. Yeah, they crushed. And it would cost tens of thousands of dollars to fix. We're asking on 0800DALZM this afternoon, what expensive car did you hit? 0800DialZM. Ellie. Hi, Ellie. Hello.
Starting point is 00:25:11 What expensive car did you hit, Ellie? I hit an Audi. Oh. Yeah. I was driving on the motorway at Spaghetti Junction in Auckland and rear-ended an Audi, which was not good in my little 1994 Sentra. You know, I had one of those too. A fantastic car.
Starting point is 00:25:34 Incredibly reliable. I bet it came off really well in that accident. Yeah, I bet yours looked a lot better than the Audi did. Well, it wrote my car off. Oh. So it really didn't go well either way. Let's be real. Your car was probably worth like eight bucks.
Starting point is 00:25:48 Yeah. Did you have insurance? Luckily, I did. Good work, Ellie. Oh, thank God, Ellie. Good work. Next, let's go and talk to Ella. Hi, Ella.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Ella, are you there? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, hi. What expensive car did you hit? I hit a brand new Lexus two days after I got my restricted in my Toyota Corona in 1995. What happened? Oh, it wasn't too bad. I just reversed into it when I was pulling out of a car park,
Starting point is 00:26:16 and I did probably about a 10-centimeter scratch on it, and that was it. No damage to my car. Yeah. But it cost just under a grand to fix. Oh. No insurance. Oh car. Yeah. But it cost just under a grand to fix. Oh. No insurance. Oh. And I didn't tell my parents.
Starting point is 00:26:30 And then my dad found out by looking at the back of my car and underneath the mud flap, I still had the Lexus badge. Hard to get away with that. No, that's fine. You just tell them that you're trying to increase the market value of your car. You're like, nah, my car must have been fornicating with a Lexus. My Corona must be part Lexus, Dad. Must have been mounting a Lexus.
Starting point is 00:26:53 We got a great deal. Hi, Bex. Welcome to the show. Hi, how are you? Good. What expensive car did you hit, Bex? I actually hit the back of a BMW, which in turn hit a four-wheel drive surf truck, which hit a Suzuki. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:27:08 At least it's gone down in value each time it's hit, right? Yeah, it was $39,000 all up for all three cars. Okay, here we go. Please tell me you had insurance. Yeah, I had insurance. Good work. What were you driving? Just a little Mazda 323.
Starting point is 00:27:26 How does a little Mazda 323, you must have been going fast to smash. No, I would have been going probably about 20k. All the cars in front, it was like a pile up stopped in the middle of rain. So just locking up at that sort of speed like the rain just hit underneath the brake. They call that, she hydroplaned.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Yes, that's it. That is actually the term. Yes, it is. Well done. I knew something. One last one. Hi, Rebecca. Hi. Rebecca, tell us what happened. When did you hit an expensive car? So I hit a Mini Cooper and I caused $3,000
Starting point is 00:27:58 worth of damage. So I took out, it was three side panels and about two windows, but I did it on an electric scooter. Wow. Are you okay? I blacked out, like it knocked me out. And then when I came to, I had a big black and blue knee.
Starting point is 00:28:17 You can't get insurance on an electric scooter. No, no. I think, I know insurance is involved, but it was my parents, so they had to fork out for it, and I just had to pay them back. Of course they did. And the thing we all really want to know, was the scooter okay? The only thing that broke on the scooter was the mud flap. Of course.
Starting point is 00:28:39 Why, and this is a controversial call, why were all those calls from women drivers? I think it says something, though, don't you? We're all giving you the finger through the radio, Clint. Right now at Lone Star, you can win a trip to Nashville and Cabo San Lucas thanks to Lone Star. All you have to do is scan your Lone Star Loyal app with any purchase until the end of February and you'll go in the draw.
Starting point is 00:29:09 We've been loving this game over the last two weeks. All you have to do, the bull will start bucking and you just have to pick when it's going to buck you off. Yeah, we're giving away some cash to celebrate that competition. Welcome to the show, Fiona. Hello. Hi, Fi. Hey.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Have you heard this comp in the last couple of weeks? I have, yes. Okay, perfect. Have you ever ridden a bull before? No, but I Hi, Fi. Hey. Have you heard this comment in the last couple of weeks? I have, yes. Okay, perfect. Have you ever ridden a bull before? No, but I would love to. Have you ridden a mechanical bull before? No, but I think I would do pretty good. Have you ridden a horse before? Yes. Ah, there we go. I used to ride potty calves.
Starting point is 00:29:39 What's a potty calf? Like a little baby cow. We had cows when I was younger and we'd go out and feed them. My dad would grab one of them and then he'd sit me on it. Yeah. When I was like seven. Oh, yeah. And then he'd go,
Starting point is 00:29:49 ride that bull. Good dating, Dad. I'm so country. I was going to say, Fiona, you know the rules, right? We're going to play this for you. You just yell out stop when you want to get off.
Starting point is 00:29:57 If you hold on too long and you get backed off, you'll get nothing, okay? Cool, Ed. All right, let's go, Fi. Good luck. Three, two, Cool, then. All right, let's go, Fi. Good luck. Three, two, one. Five.
Starting point is 00:30:10 25. Yeah, you're right, Apple. 80. 180. Kenny, hold on. Whoa, you can do it. 210. Yee-haw! 290. 300. You can do it! 210.
Starting point is 00:30:27 290. 300. 340. Whoa, whoa, whoa! 400. Stop. Stop! 400 big ones for free! $400.
Starting point is 00:30:43 I've got a real strong feeling You're about to get kicked off Me too So let's check 500 Oh no 560 Oh go away 800
Starting point is 00:30:55 No That is one angry ball 850 1000 No $150. $1,000. No! That's it. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:31:12 I hate $1,000. You know what? I like $400. You did really well, Fee. Yeah. I'm still a winner. You are still a winner. And we're going to put $400 in your account, okay?
Starting point is 00:31:20 It's great. Thank you. Nice work, Fiona. Yeah, thank you. And thanks, Lone Star, as well. We'll play again tomorrow, our last day of this game tomorrow. Yeah, hopefully it's a big one. I've got a feeling for the last one it'll be a big one.
Starting point is 00:31:31 Surely, but you never know. You just don't know. Bree and Clint. I challenge you to a song. We're going to have another song off before float. So you and I are DJing there in nine days' time. Yes. We thought we'd found all our music.
Starting point is 00:31:44 We had our Darude. We had our John Farnham, The Voice. We had somehow High School Musical in there, as well as good songs as well. But you and I both feel that maybe we're missing a song. It's missing one, I think. And we need to decide on that before the end of the day. I think I know what the song is.
Starting point is 00:32:03 Okay. And you think you know what the song is. I don't know what you've picked. No, but I don't think I know what the song is. Okay. And you think you know what the song is. I don't know what you've picked. No, but I don't think we've agreed on a track. Okay. So what we've done is we've amassed another music jury. We have Callum, Jordan, Kylie, Christina and Dylan waiting on the phone.
Starting point is 00:32:16 And majority wins. Okay. Whoever's song gets the most votes is going in our set. Yep. And that's it. We lock it off. We're good to go. Okay. I'm nervous. You go
Starting point is 00:32:28 first. You go first. No, you go first. Papers, Scissors, Rocks. 1, 2, 3, show. Papers, Scissors, Rocks show. You go first. Alright, guys. I feel like our DJ set is missing
Starting point is 00:32:43 a bit of that party vibe island flavour. Ooh, island flavour. So I've decided to go with the iconic, the legendary track from the Vengaboys. I forgot the name of it. This one. Damn, you're really into this song if you don't know the name of it. No, because I always think of it as the Venga Bus is coming,
Starting point is 00:33:17 but it's actually not called that. It's called the Venga Bus. No, it's not. Is it not? It's like We Like to Party, it's called. The Venga Boys. It's like We Like To Party, it's called. The Vinger Boys. It's called We Like To Party. Who cares?
Starting point is 00:33:30 This is your song, yeah? That's my song. Strong, strong choice. Strong? Strong choice. I won't take that away from you. I won't even try and slander your song because it's strong. I feel like it would mix well.
Starting point is 00:33:39 However. You know why I want it? Yeah. It's good crowd involvement. Not two minutes ago, you used the phrase, support New Zealand music. And that's what I'm imploring New Zealand to do right now with my song.
Starting point is 00:33:54 I knew it was going to be this song. I have, for my selection for the final song for our DJ set, the greatest New Zealand pop song ever made. You even said that this is the best New Zealand pop song. This is the biggest New Zealand banger. And that's why I think our DJ set is lacking the Pātea Māori Club Pōie. Pātea Māori Club Pōie. Imagine that. We're at Lake Tikitapu in Rotorua,
Starting point is 00:34:31 the cultural centre of New Zealand. And out across the lake, this song is raging. And can I say, I've DJ'd this song to a huge crowd before. I've played this song on stage at New Year's Eve at Rhythm and Vines. Oh, gig drop. No, I'm telling you, 18,000 people, this song works.
Starting point is 00:34:52 Okay? Now we go to the jury. Okay? You ready? Yeah, let's go. May the best song win. First jury member is Callum. Hi, Callum.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Hi, Callum. Hey, how are you? Venga Boys or Poirier? I think I'm going to bring some of that Kiwi flavour, right? You're going to put a bit of Kiwi flavour in there? You need to say the words for us, please. Yeah, Poirier. One vote, Poirier.
Starting point is 00:35:15 Thank you very much. What? Nothing. Let's go to the next one. Jordan. Hi, Jordan. Hi. What do you think, Jordan. Hi, Jordan. Hi. What do you think, Jordan?
Starting point is 00:35:31 Going to have to go with Breeze Song. Breeze Song. I love it, Jordan. Thanks for the support. But the thing is that I didn't know what you were picking. You didn't know what I was picking. I'm happy with Poye too, so I'm happy with either or. Don't admit defeat before you've lost. I know how competitive you are.
Starting point is 00:35:43 I'm not admitting defeat. I'm just saying I love that song. I like Vengabus too, but I want to win. Third jury member of five, Kylie. Kylie. Hi there. How are you guys doing? Very good.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Is this a hard decision for you? Yes, it was because those two songs are my favourite songs. Oh, I love it. Which only one can go in? Poor Year or The Vengaboys? I'm sorry, Clint, but I have to go with three or four. I'm Vinger Boys. Thanks, Kylie.
Starting point is 00:36:08 It's absolutely fine. Love your support. You're riding away with support at the moment too because The Vinger Boys just played in Auckland on Friday. And you know what? When I saw them perform that, I've never seen a crowd go off like they did to that song. 2-1.
Starting point is 00:36:20 If you take this point, it's over, okay? Christina. Hi, Christina. Hi. Christina, you sound like a pop music fan to me. You sound like someone who knows good music. Yeah. What song is going in the DJ set?
Starting point is 00:36:32 Poirier or the Vengaboys? I've deliberated with my children. Yes. And we've gone with, I'm sorry, Bree, but we're going with Clint Poirier. So we're in a lockdown here. We're at stalemate. Tie break.
Starting point is 00:36:48 Dylan, the power is in your hands, okay? The last song for our DJ set. Before you tell us, do you like both of these songs? I love them both. This is going to be really hard. Excellent, Dylan. I'm glad that it's a hard decision.
Starting point is 00:37:03 Dylan, I just want to say, are you a New Zealander? I sure am. Are you a proud New Zealander? Yeah, but do you want to go to Ibiza? Do you want to go to Ibiza? Are you going to float, Dylan? Guys, it's so hard for me. You're making it so hard.
Starting point is 00:37:15 Dylan, just picture it there. We'll throw beach balls into the crowd. The Vangor bus will be bringing it all the way home. We'll swing poise around. We'll chant. It'll be great. Just tell us, Dylan, what song is the last song going into the Hot Mess Express DJ set? I love you guys so much.
Starting point is 00:37:35 This has been very hard for me to think of, but I'm going with Poirier. Dylan. I love you, Dylan. I think I might have just found a double pass to float for you. Oh, what? I didn't want to give it as a bribe beforehand, but I think we can make it work.
Starting point is 00:37:56 You're kidding, right? You'll be there. He hasn't ticked this off. No, I haven't got permission, but we'll make it work. He's literally just sent it out of nowhere. Dylan, Dylan, Dylan Dylan I'm one of the headline artists at Float
Starting point is 00:38:06 I can get you on my rider you can be on my private guest list it'd be great to have you there Dylan I'd love to see you guys
Starting point is 00:38:15 that's so cool thank you so much we'll see you there next weekend weather forecast is incredible and it's going to be a great day
Starting point is 00:38:20 awesome cool Brie and Clint once upon a time there was a girl. She was smart, debatable, talented, athletic. Not really. Picking a movie based on just the plot line, that she can do.
Starting point is 00:38:42 Brie and Clint's What The Plot. Producer Ben, the record for the year is two games to one. Is that in favour of Bree or against Bree? Bree's winning 2-1. Bree's winning 2-1. You good at this game? It's a shocking record. You are good at this game. Okay. Had a good run last year. Yeah, you did.
Starting point is 00:39:00 Have started pretty crap this year. Taking you on today and to win a double pass to M. Night Shyamalan's new thriller Glass is Cameron. Hi, Cameron. Hi, Cam. How's it going? Your buzzer is your name.
Starting point is 00:39:11 It's best of three. When you know the movie plot, you yell out your name, okay? Sweet as. First movie. Born under unusual circumstances, our hero springs into being as an elderly man in a... Brie. Brie. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
Starting point is 00:39:28 The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is correct. Yes! Love that film. I would have also accepted Benjamin Button. Oh. But that's totally fine. You absolutely nailed it. I was going to say, that's the full name.
Starting point is 00:39:43 Comeback time, right, Cameron? You got this, right, mate? I nailed it. I was going to say, that's the full name. Comeback time, right? Cameron, you got this, right, mate? I got it. Movie two. Merida, the impetuous but courageous... Brie. Brave. Brave is correct.
Starting point is 00:39:53 Yeah! That's a lot. Do you want to go for a down shout? What was that one? That was Brave. It's a cartoon film. Cameron, do you know any movies? No, I haven't seen that one? That was Brave It's a cartoon film Cameron do you know any movies? No I haven't seen that one Leave Cam alone
Starting point is 00:40:10 I had a good run This afternoon Do you want to do the last one? Let's just call it Cam do you want to play The last game for the tickets? Go for it So this is winner takes all this point
Starting point is 00:40:23 But I technically have won the game Sure you can have the record This is for the tickets Okay Movie number three But technically new game movie one When John Bennett was a little boy He made a wish that his beloved teddy bear
Starting point is 00:40:36 Would come free Ted Why didn't you just let him win? I can't Give him the tickets Why didn't you No you've absolutely erased them No give him No you get the tickets And you can take him to the movie with you Good Give him the tickets. No, you've absolutely erased them. No, give him.
Starting point is 00:40:46 No, you get the tickets and you can take them to the movie with you, all right? Good, I get the tickets. Cameron, hang on the line. I'm going to give you the tickets. Cameron's got no idea what's going on. Bree and Clint. I need to talk to you about something that happened over on the holiday break and I want to get your take on it.
Starting point is 00:41:03 Oh, no, you're not pregnant too, are you? No, I'm not pregnant. But I also want to get the B and C family, so everyone listening, I want to get their take on it to see if I'm being unreasonable or if I'm in the right. Okay. So the situation was we're on a family holiday, and the people that were there at the time were me, my mum,
Starting point is 00:41:21 my sister, and my sister's new husband. Okay. Where was your hot brother? He wasn't there at the time Anyway, where was Big Steve? He was working, typical Big Steve So it was us four, my mum me, my sister and my sister's new husband
Starting point is 00:41:36 For a couple of nights we had all been staying at the same place and my mum had been cooking for all of us and she'd bought groceries So we all decided, me, my sister and my mum had been cooking for all of us and she'd bought groceries. So we all decided, me, my sister and my sister's new husband, that we would go to the grocery store, we would buy groceries and then we would make dinner for everyone that night.
Starting point is 00:41:56 Lovely idea. Yeah. So we were all there. We went to the supermarket. We bought the groceries that we were going to cook dinner with. I was going to cook dinner. Bree's actually not a bad cook, by the way. Yeah. So I the groceries that we were going to cook dinner with. I was going to cook dinner. Bree's actually not a bad cook, by the way. Yeah, so I was like, I'm fine to cook.
Starting point is 00:42:09 I'd be happy to do that. Despite all the Uber Eats, she can actually handle herself in the kitchen. So we get to the checkout and we're at the self-service checkout, me, my sister and my sister's husband. And my sister looks at me and I've put it all through the checkout and it came to $90. Yeah. She said, great, let's split it. And I said, perfect. Sounds great. In my head, splitting it meant we obviously split this three ways, $30 each. In her mind and in her husband, her new husband's new mind, it was 50-50.
Starting point is 00:42:53 So I paid 45 and then they as a couple paid 45. Yeah. What? I was confused. And at the time, I didn't say anything because I was like, is that right? Yeah. Or is that, wait.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Yeah. And I know what you're saying. It's only $15, right? But it's the principal. It's the principal. Yes. And it actually happened twice on the holiday. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:21 So it wasn't a mistake. It happened twice. So there's two schools. Let me just break this down for you as an outsider. I think there's two schools of thinking here. Yeah. So it wasn't a mistake. It happened twice. So there's two schools. Let me just break this down for you as an outsider. I think there's two schools of thinking here. Yes. One, you are two households. There is their household and there is your household.
Starting point is 00:43:32 Right. So you're splitting it in that way. They come as an item. Okay. But the other way of looking at that is there's three mouths. So you're all eating a third of this food. Yeah. Well, a quarter, and then you're shouting your mum, right?
Starting point is 00:43:44 Exactly. Mum gets shouted because she pays for everything usually. But then back to it, like he's a guest of this food. Yeah. Well, a quarter, and then you're shouting your mum, right? Exactly. Mum gets shouted because she pays for everything usually. But then back to it, like he's a guest to the family. So maybe you're just your sister and you should go halves. But.
Starting point is 00:43:56 I just gave Clint a real dirty look. Look, there's plenty of ways to skin this is what I'm saying. But I'm on, I think I'm on your side. Are you on my side? Yeah, I would have just stepped up. Do you believe we should have split it three ways?
Starting point is 00:44:08 Put it this way. I went away with, no, it doesn't count actually because over my Christmas holiday, I went away with three other couples and so we just went quarters because we were four couples. That's fine. That's fine. But if there was a single person there,
Starting point is 00:44:19 there's no way we would have made them pay the same equal share as the couples. No, you're right. You're right. You're right. So I want to know on 0800DIALSATM, can you solve this for me? Yeah. Who's in the right?
Starting point is 00:44:31 Yeah. Should it be split three ways or should it be split down the middle? Me and then them as a couple. You can text us on 9696 or you can call 0800DIALSATM. We'll take a jury. There's a war going on. We'll take a jury. Brian Clint. There's a war going on. We're just sorting out family debacles on the radio here.
Starting point is 00:44:49 Isn't that good? Yeah. It's great. This is good when your family live in a different country. Yeah. He is hoping they never find the iHeartRadio app. Well, to be honest, I probably wouldn't mind if they heard it because it actually kind of upset me a little bit because it happened a few times over the holiday break where me
Starting point is 00:45:03 and my family were on holidays together. My sister's new husband was also there. We've decided that we were going to buy groceries for everyone and cook my mum a meal because she had bought us everything under the sun. So we went to the grocery store, we bought all the groceries. Then my sister, my sister's new husband and me split it down the middle. How new are we talking? Oh, sorry, you've got to explain the split. That's the important bit. They said, let's split it. So it was $90 and then somehow I paid $45
Starting point is 00:45:32 and then they paid $45 as a couple. And I was like, wait, when you become a couple, does that mean you only have to put in for one person? I know you and I know you're not a stingy person. No. So it's not about the money, right? It's about the principle. No.
Starting point is 00:45:45 And to be honest, this happened twice over the holidays. So it wasn't an accident. How new is the husband? March last year. How long has he been in the family with you guys? Four years. Do you consider him part of the family? He's a part of the family.
Starting point is 00:45:59 So you got to chip in. Like it's almost if you're not part of the family, that's when you get let off. You go, oh, don't worry, mate, you're a guest. Yeah. When you're part of the family, that comes with obligations, right? But to be honest. Step up, do some dishes, that sort of thing.
Starting point is 00:46:10 Even if I was a guest, that would make me more inclined to put in. Yeah. Because, you know. But everybody is different. True. Everybody is different. So you want to know. I want to know, should the bill have been split 50-50 or three ways?
Starting point is 00:46:24 Hi, Jess. Welcome to the Thomas L family debate. Hi. Hi, Jess. Should the bill have been split 50-50 or three ways? Hi, Jess. Welcome to the Thomas L family debate. Hi. Hi, Jess. What do you think? I have a kind of different view on it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:46:37 Just because I've been in a situation before and I've got a friend that's quite a big guy and he eats quite a lot of food. Yeah. So what we did is we were like kind of in couples. I was with my brother, but it still kind of classed itself as a couple at the time with who we were with. And we made him pay his share of two people
Starting point is 00:46:55 because I was like, there's no way he's going to eat the same amount of food as me. That's not fair. Wow. Oh, that's a whole different story. How did that go down? That's like charging someone extra for their plane seat because they weigh a bit more. Well, when I say I...
Starting point is 00:47:09 They should. When I said I made him, we kind of just told him. We were like, oh, we're splitting it four ways, so that's what you're paying. Yeah. If I was him, I'd just go, that's fine, I'm eating two meals. And to be honest, my sister's husband, he ate all the leftovers the next day and then I really raged. I was raging after that.
Starting point is 00:47:30 Because it happened previously where we'd done the whole, you know, per person and he ate way more than everybody else. And we said next time, that's what's happening. So in this situation, Jess, should they have gone 50-50 or three ways? No, in your situation, you should have gone three ways. I do eat a lot, though, Jess. Well, you need to. You've got to eat for two.
Starting point is 00:47:50 Hi, Jared. How you going? What do you think, Jared? 50-50? Three ways all the way, hey? Three ways all the way. How good's a three-way, Jared? It's just better for everyone, you know?
Starting point is 00:47:59 It's cleaner. Everyone knows what they're entitled to. You've got to share it around, eh? Everyone's happy. Everyone can have a sausage and there is no guilt whatsoever. Thanks, Jared. Hey, Johnny, how are you? Yeah, good, good.
Starting point is 00:48:10 How are you? Good, thanks, Johnny. What do you reckon, 50-50 or three-way? No, no. I'm a little bit upset that he didn't pay for it all. That's the manly thing to do. There you go, Johnny. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:19 Oh, you're sweet, Johnny. No, I would say three-way. And I would say that you need to send an invoice, $15 including $30 inflation. Yeah, that'll do. Johnny, I was waiting for someone to come through with this opinion, right? No problem. I also wanted just to say to you, Bree,
Starting point is 00:48:36 because I wanted to say it since you started. Yeah. Oh, Bree. Johnny, I love it. There he is. I love it. Let's go, Susan. Hi, Susan. Hi, Suze. Let's go Susan. Hi, Susan.
Starting point is 00:48:45 Hi, Suze. Hi. What do you think, Susan? Definitely three ways. It's one food person. So if you're going to stay in a hotel together and there's a couple and two singles, you're not going to expect the singles to play part of the couple share.
Starting point is 00:48:59 That's a good way of looking at it. There's a really good text that said if they shared one meal together, then they get to go halves. But I don't think they did, right? No, they didn't. No, they were eating for themselves, that's for sure. Last one. Gabriel. Kia ora. Yeah, hi man. What do you think?
Starting point is 00:49:16 Definitely free weight. Is there any argument, Gabriel, that they're a couple and that they are one person? So their income is, this is what I was thinking, that they were kind of on the page. Because their income is joint now, they think that, yeah, but that doesn't make sense.
Starting point is 00:49:33 Are they both working? Yes. All right. Yeah. I mean, if everyone's eating it, then everyone should pay for it. I reckon that's fair. Yeah. Gabriel, Bree cooked and Bree paid for half of it.
Starting point is 00:49:46 Who do you think did the dishes? Oh, hopefully not Bree. I bloody did the dishes too, Gabriel. That's not fair. Spewing. That's so not fair. Absolutely spewing. Is that where you need it?
Starting point is 00:49:57 Let's call my brother-in-law next. No, I don't want to be part of that. No, I'm already dreading ever being part of a Thomas L family occasion now. No, that's not good. I actually feel so much better. Do you? Yeah, because I was like, is it me? Am I being petty? Well, by talking about it on the radio, maybe, but who cares?
Starting point is 00:50:15 I'm not saying they're bad people. I'm just saying they should have chipped in. Birthday Bang is about to happen. Before then, though, we need to take a minute because we have breaking news. Oh, my God. What is it? The Hot Mess Express single.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Oh, my God. Send It. Send It. Released to iTunes today. Has just experienced more chart movement. Last time we reported was about 30 minutes ago where we said the song is sitting in the 9th position.
Starting point is 00:50:50 I was happy with top 10 in New Zealand. Top 10. Like what an achievement. Released today, the iTunes overall singles chart 2. Oh my god! We have the number 2 song Two. Oh, my God. We have the number two song in the country. Let me see you send it.
Starting point is 00:51:12 What? The only song beating us at the moment is George Ezra's Shotgun. Oh, get out of there, Shotgun. Get out of there, George Ezra. Get out of there. You've had your time. Get out of there, George Ezra. You've had your time.
Starting point is 00:51:24 Look, we're getting ahead of ourselves, okay? We haven't done it yet. There could be a huge gap between us and number one. We don't know. He just played here last week, but... Could we have a number one single? Well, we could. Does that mean this could potentially be played
Starting point is 00:51:38 in Birthday Banger at some point? A hundred percent. If it gets to number one, other radio stations have to play it as well. Oh, my God. This is the iTunes chart that we're dealing with first. Okay. The official New Zealand Top 40 chart comes out once a week.
Starting point is 00:51:52 At the moment we're dealing with the iTunes chart. This is a start. Hey, I'm happy with the iTunes chart. That's an achievement. If you're interested in supporting this project, the Hot Mess Express. Be a part of it. It's our DJ duo.
Starting point is 00:52:03 If that doesn't make any sense to you at all, now's the time to do it. Like, we've got this momentum here. If we could just get a few more downloads right now. It's $2.40. It's on iTunes. I know you haven't used iTunes for a long time. But if you can find it in your heart to support a local Kiwi act slash Aussie,

Starting point is 00:55:14 Public holiday yesterday. How good was it? How good? Beautiful day. I was so confused. Like, you know when you get that public holiday and then last night I was like, oh, shit, it's Monday tomorrow. Oh, no, wait, it's not Monday.
Starting point is 00:55:25 Wait, what's going on? And I was really confused. Really nice thing to remind yourself. Tomorrow's Friday. And then you get two more days off. I feel like we should do that every Wednesday, right? This is Bree and Clint's how do weeks work chat. It comes only second to generic weather chat
Starting point is 00:55:43 where we chat about the weather. Whether it's sunny or it's raining. What day is it? So yesterday for Waitangi Day, I went out to Mission Bay to have a swim with one of my mates and I just shouldn't be outdoors. Why? Honestly.
Starting point is 00:56:03 Did you get bit by another spider? No. I cut my foot on a barnacle. Shot bowl. So that wasn't great. I just shouldn't be outdoors. Why? Did you get bit by another spider? No. I cut my foot on a barnacle. Shotbowl. So that wasn't great. So we walked out into the bay and me and my mate decided that we were going to swim to this boy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:16 It wasn't too far out. What was his name? Gary. No. It was this like yellow boat boy. You can't say yellow anymore. You're an idiot. They're called sailors too, not boat boy. You can't say yellow anymore. You're an idiot. They're called sailors too, not boat boys.
Starting point is 00:56:35 We started swimming out to this, I was going to say it was a floating boat boy. You're not going to go and visit a sunk one. It's not that impressive. It was made of metal. Gotcha. It was an item and we decided, you know, that'll be good. Get a bit exercise. That's a good goal. Gotcha. It was an item. And we decided, you know, that'll be good. Get a bit of exercise. That's a good goal. And so we started swimming out to this thing.
Starting point is 00:56:50 Can I say bad decision if you're not a swimmer? No, it wasn't too deep. Okay. And I mean, I'm not the best swimmer, but I thought it'd be fine. Fine. As we've started to swim out, I've noticed, you know those sailboats that have one person in it? What are they called?
Starting point is 00:57:05 They're either called like a laser or an optimus or- They're real tiny little sailboats with one person in it. Yeah. This sailboat goes past us and I was like, oh, that's cool. And then another boat goes past us and I was like, oh, a couple of boats out. As I've turned around, I've realised we're in the direct line of a sailboat sailboat race yeah i was like oh my god so we're swimming turn around no joke about 40 boats oh god coming straight for us you could have got clipped in the head you could have died no no joke as i've turned around
Starting point is 00:57:42 this sailboat and they were all kids on the boat. They'll be optimists, yeah. This kid has spotted me in the water and he's pulled on, and to be honest, he would have seen me from miles away. He pulled the boat break. He pulled the boat, whatever the thing that you do on the boat, so hard to miss me that he's fully capsized his sailboat. So the boy you were swimming out to
Starting point is 00:58:13 was a racing boy. It was like a marker for the race. Is that what you... Yeah. Is that what we've figured out? Yeah. They're all going around that boy. And what have we learnt?
Starting point is 00:58:23 Never exercise. Big news for anyone who's ever accidentally sent a message they wish they hadn't. You know that horrible feeling when you hit send and you hear the whoop? And you're like, oh my God, it's gone. And you're trying to turn it onto aeroplane mode or you're trying to turn your phone off and they're not too late.
Starting point is 00:58:43 It used to be back in the day when before iPhones that because text took a while to send you could quickly take the battery off the phone remember that
Starting point is 00:58:50 yes you'd pull the battery off and just hope for the best that it just got lost in transmission yep and then you wouldn't
Starting point is 00:58:55 know you're like did it get through no hope for text yet but Facebook Messenger have launched an update yes where you can delete
Starting point is 00:59:03 sent messages so this was leaked last year. There was photos of this leaked last year. So there was a lot of rumours flying around about this feature that they were going to release on Messenger. And finally it has been released where you can delete messages that you've sent. Do you know how it works?
Starting point is 00:59:21 Yes. Okay. I think so. So essentially once you've sent a message and I don't know if it's just between, it's in group messages and also just between one person. Yeah. So essentially once you've sent the message, you hold down on the message. You hold your finger down on the message and it'll come up with two options.
Starting point is 00:59:42 And it says remove for everyone or remove for you. So I think that might be in the group context. You have to do it within 15 minutes of sending it. That's one of the tricks. I read 10 minutes. Is it 10 minutes? It says, yeah. But you know pretty quickly if you want to remove it,
Starting point is 00:59:56 unless you do some drunk texting and then the next day you're like, oh, no, then it's too late. I don't know if you can still remove it if the other person has seen it because what's the point? No, you can. Let's test it. I'm going to message you right still remove it if the other person has seen it. Because what's the point? No, you can. Let's test it. I'm going to message you right now. Can you open your messenger? Yes. So I'll go Brianna Thomasel Oh, I just revealed
Starting point is 01:00:14 what your real Facebook name is. Thank you, mate. Oh, now people are adding me. Well, you should be flattered. Here we go. I'm going to message you now. Hey, bish. Okay. Hey, bish. Oh, don't be flattered. Here we go. I'm going to message you now. Hey, bish. Okay. Hey, bish.
Starting point is 01:00:28 Oh, don't send a novel. I keep misspelling bish. That's why. Hey, bish. Sent. Okay. Now view it. Can you see it?
Starting point is 01:00:35 Okay. Hold on. Yes. You've seen it? Yes, I've seen it. And it's red. Okay. Now I'm going to hold down on it and it gives me three options.
Starting point is 01:00:43 Copy, forward or remove. I have hit remove. And it's red. Okay, now I'm going to hold down on it, and it gives me three options, copy, forward, or remove. I have hit remove. Remove for everyone. Yes. Remove for everyone. You'll permanently remove this message from all chat members. They can see that you've removed a message and still report it. Okay, it's gone online. Oh, so now it just says Clinton Roberts just revealed your real Facebook page,
Starting point is 01:01:05 removed a message. Oh, see, I mean, that's just as bad. Or maybe it's not as bad. It means if you want anything, you need screen caps. Yeah. You need to take screen caps because those messages are going to disappear. Like if you and I get in a fight over something I've said, I'm removing it.
Starting point is 01:01:21 I don't care if you've seen it. I don't want you to have the proof. But then I guess you have to come up with what you would have removed. You know what I mean? Yeah. Like if the other person doesn't get to see it, then you're like, oh, I'm going to delete that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:32 Anyway, if you want it to work, you need the newest version of Messenger. And again, it's not going to save you if you drunk DM late at night and then wake up the next day and regret it, okay? Also, how bad are our Facebook disguises? They're just our real names.
