Starting point is 00:00:00 Ready? Hi everybody, welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast. G'day guys. What have we got to get on the table? Any admin we got to get through for the podcast today? Anybody harbouring any feelings that they want to bring up to the surface during the podcast intro? I want to ask people in the room, because we've just come back from holidays. Well, it's like a week ago now.
Starting point is 00:00:21 Yeah. How long does it take you to unpack your suitcase? Oh, good question. I used to be a live out of my suitcase person until it was gone. So I went, oh, I'll just wear the stuff. Really? And then it'll go from the suitcase to the laundry basket in real time. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:38 That's kind of a good idea. But now I hate those people. So I unpack the day I get home. Because I just, something changed unpack the day I get home. Because I just, something changed in me, and I became like a clean freak, a neat freak. Maybe I had some kind of small nervous breakdown that I'm not aware of. No, it's called your wife Lucy. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:59 Why, what are you? Wait, you're not still living out of your suitcase, are you? You've been home for two weeks. I definitely think she is. Are you, actually? And it's gotten to the point where it's actually really giving me anxiety now. Last night, I got home quite early and I was like, right, I'm going to do my suitcase. I'm going to unpack everything.
Starting point is 00:01:17 But I've got the problem now that I've packed my wardrobe so full of stuff. Yeah, there's no room for it. There's no room for it. Yeah. So now I'm just thinking about going home and I've just got anxiety because I'm like, you better do it tonight. So I'll tell you how you do it. And it's a rip the bandaid off situation.
Starting point is 00:01:33 When you get home. Yeah. I don't know if it's a matter if you've got to cook dinner or anything. That's fine. Yeah. As soon as you walk in the door, go and tip your suitcase onto your bed. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:01:42 And then put the empty suitcase away wherever it lives. And it can't go back in there. And then it can't go back in there. And you'll have to put it away before you go to bed. That's good. That is good. Or push it all onto the floor. I've got to be the floor space free.
Starting point is 00:01:56 What about you guys? Are you a... I pack real quick. As soon as I'm home, I'm unpacked, done. Ben doesn't count because he literally, I've seen Ben pack one T-shirt and a pair of underwear for a week. That's definitely a lie, but yeah, I would. Is it two pairs of underwear?
Starting point is 00:02:13 Yeah. Yeah. You literally pack, you're like, I've got my shirt, I've got my shorts, that's it. Yeah. Travel light. Yeah, have fun. I would like to live like that.
Starting point is 00:02:22 Have fun. Have fun. Have fun. It's part of Ben's 2020 New Year's resolutions, live fast and loose. Where does anything go? Hang on, mate. Where does anything go? Whoa.
Starting point is 00:02:35 What about you, Ellie? I'm a real mix. I definitely used to be more on the not unpacking side. I'm a bit better now, but I do get pissed when Sam comes home from the UK and doesn't unpack for days. I get really annoyed. Well, he's not still not unpacked. He hasn't, but for a few days there, I was like,
Starting point is 00:02:51 Oh, for a few days? Okay, bloody slave driver. Jesus, you're like 48 hours. Oh, ball breaker over there. 48 hours, I was ready to divorce him. A nutcracker. I couldn't stand it. Can I ask a side question that just came to me when Ellie was talking? Sure, mate. I was ready to divorce him. A nutcracker. I couldn't stand it.
Starting point is 00:03:09 Can I ask a side question that just came to me when Ellie was talking? Sure, mate. And this is for people who listen to our show who are not Kiwis. So this is perfect for the podcast. And I guess you could let us know in the Facebook group the answer to this question. Who has the strongest New Zealand accent on this show? Oh, that's a good question. It's not Brie. No, it's not Brie. Do you think I'm blending more? Oh, that's a good question. It's not Brie.
Starting point is 00:03:26 No, it's not Brie. Do you think I'm blending more? Okay, sure. There you go. Okay. Do you think if you're Australian, does Brie sound more Kiwi? This is her third year being here. Does she sound more Kiwi?
Starting point is 00:03:39 And then for the global community listening to this, who has the thuckest New Zealand accent? Don't base it off that. I was doing extra. And also, can you tell the difference from mine slash the other three? Yeah. Because some people like Americans and like English people. They don't know. Like obviously Aussies and Kiwis, we can tell the difference.
Starting point is 00:03:56 Yeah. But a lot of people around the world are like, oh, you guys sound the same. Yeah. Yeah. Don't we? Yeah. Yeah. Because we do sound quite similar to them.
Starting point is 00:04:02 It's like when you tell an American, you can't tell the difference between them and a Canadian And they go What are you talking about? We sound totally different When you say to us That you can't understand the difference Between a Kiwi and Australian We're like
Starting point is 00:04:14 What are you talking about? Fair dinkum Are you Reggie Ditch? Cool That's the only super Aussie accent I can do When I just say super thick slang words Like the one you're doing now Hey you should
Starting point is 00:04:31 You know what's really weird for me I'll do this and then we can all go home When I go home Shut up When I went home You've got unpacking to do That's why I'm trying to avoid it My sister and I We sound super, that's why I'm trying to avoid it. My sister and I, we sound super similar, like our voices are really similar.
Starting point is 00:04:48 But because she's lived in country Queensland her whole life, when she talks, I look at her and I'm like, this is what I would sound like if I never moved away. Oh, yeah. Because her accent is so thick. Brie thinks that with a monocle and she's stroking an atlas. Which is like, if I wasn't so worldly, I'd sound like Country Bumpkin over here. I can sound fancy.
Starting point is 00:05:14 Thank heavens for air tickets. Shut the fuck up. Have a good podcast, everybody. Now break me my monocle. Hey Google, what's the time? It's 3 p.m. Give or take a minute. Alexa, play Zedim on iHeartRadio.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Playing Zedim on iHeartRadio. Hey, Siri, when are Bree and Clint on? Bree and Clint are on air in five, four, three, two, one. Afternoon, everybody. Welcome to the show. Bree and Clint. G'day, guys. Happy Thursday. How quick has it gone? Afternoon everybody, welcome to the show, Bree and Clint G'day guys, happy Thursday
Starting point is 00:05:45 How quick has it gone? Wait Are you alright? So I've got grain waves stuck in my throat We have this game on the show, well within our team Where if someone feels like a treat You can challenge everybody else on the team To pay for that treat with a roll of a dice.
Starting point is 00:06:05 So I said, I feel like a treat. If I roll a four on this dice, then Ben has to go and buy us all something from the dairy, right? Yeah. And I failed, so then Ben gets to roll the dice. And he absolutely nailed it. Yeah, so I ended up buying everybody treats. That's fine. I've opted for grain waves.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Gambling with friends is fun. Yeah, especially when you get food out of it. Good. buying everybody treats. That's fine. I've opted for Grainwaves. Gambling with friends is fun. Yeah, especially when you get food out of it. Good. It's going to be a good show. Don't eat on the mic. People don't like that. Don't they?
Starting point is 00:06:34 I don't think so. Do you guys like it? Producers, what are your thoughts? No, we don't like it. No, okay, sorry. I won't do it again. Where's my mum? Oh, now I feel bad,
Starting point is 00:06:44 like I've told off a poor little kid. Hey, don't worry about it. Don't worry. I'm a big boy with big boy feelings. Tomorrow being Friday will be the return of Friday Okie, the first Friday Okie of 2020. We've changed it up a little bit this year. Instead of us going weak about selecting the songs,
Starting point is 00:06:59 what we're going to do is we're both going to pick a song and then you guys are going to have 24 hours to choose which song we sing on a Friday via our Instagram story. You can vote on the poll. If you want to have your say, you can head over to the at Bree and Clint Instagram on the story and you can vote for either mine or Clint's. So you know what you're voting for before you get there. I've chosen this week for Friday Oki, I think we should sing Lewis Capaldi. Biggest song in the world last year. How have we not already done it?
Starting point is 00:07:33 Because we wanted people to actually listen to the show. So that's my option. Your one? I this week, she was in the country this week, so I thought we had to do some Lizzo. Two very different songs, I see. Very different. We'd love you to vote on that,
Starting point is 00:07:55 like we said on our Instagram account, at Bree and Clint, just in the story there. And whichever one gets the most votes, we'll sing that at five o'clock tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:08:02 That's how it works. What a real treat. I know. This is Ed Sheeran and Friends. Bree and Clint, ZM. She got the mmbra. Bree and Clint. It is the simple question
Starting point is 00:08:16 that has baffled society for years. To shower before bed or to shower the night after? The morning after? Oh no shower the night after? The morning after? Oh, no, the morning after. I nearly got there. You nearly got all fancy with your words.
Starting point is 00:08:32 Nearly got all there. Shower in the morning or shower before bed? Exactly. Okay. It's come up in the news this week because an Airbnb host has left a passive-aggressive note for a gentleman who was staying in her room. She was Airbnb-ing out her room, and she's left a note for him after criticising him
Starting point is 00:08:55 for not showering before bed. Okay. So apparently the guest that was renting the room off of her had been on a long eight-hour flight. Yeah. And he decided he would take a nap in amongst the sheets. Yeah, and not shower before doing that. How did she know?
Starting point is 00:09:19 Were there cameras in the room? She could smell. Oh, she could smell? She could smell it. Well, but surely you're going to change the sheets. Well, that's what you'd think so, yeah. I get it if you're grossed out by someone not showering, but one, you've rented them the room so they can do what they want.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Well, yes, exactly. And two, just wash the sheets like a normal person. And three, don't sniff the sheets. Like, don't rent your room out to someone and then sniff the sheets. Do you reckon someone, like if you've been on an eight-hour flight, like I would stink. The first thing I want after a long flight is a nice hot shower.
Starting point is 00:09:49 Oh, absolutely. And you're definitely going to smell, like even if you sleep in the bed, like if you change the sheets, like do people smell enough that it goes through? No, not if you've got a mattress protector on as well. Which I'm sure that you would have a mattress protector on if you were Airbnb-ing out your own bed.
Starting point is 00:10:06 Which also is weird. I find people who Airbnb their own room out, I find it weird. Yeah, some people need the extra money. So I do get it. But it brought up the conversation between us as a group as to what we all do in terms of showering. Is it the night before or is it the morning after?
Starting point is 00:10:24 I've been shamed by you because I said that What do we all do in terms of showering? Is it the night before or is it the morning after? I've been shamed by you because I said that I'm not a nighttime shower. I just said to you, I found it really strange because your wife, Lucy, showers at nighttime. And in the morning. And in the morning. And you just shower in the morning. So you get up, you shower. Yeah. And then you go through your day picking up dirt and grime and sweating.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Well, I don't look at it that way, but yeah. And then getting all nasty in the other areas. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. In your smelly zones. Yeah. And then you come home at night and you go, oh, well, I'm going to put my jammies on and climb into my clean sheets. That's even worse. Yeah, but I don't see it as an issue.
Starting point is 00:11:06 Like, I'm a one shower a day person because I care about the environment. Or something. Nah, I just can't be bothered. I don't want to shower twice. So I would prefer to be fresh when I leave the house to greet other people during the day. I don't want to come to work without a shower
Starting point is 00:11:21 like you. I shower sometimes in the morning as well, but I always, always cannot go to bed without showering. I'm not want to come to work without a shower like you. I shower sometimes in the morning as well, but I always, always cannot go to bed without showering. I'm not going to climb into bed after I've lived a full day. I never thought of it as a weird thing. I never thought of getting into bed at night without having a shower as being... I didn't know people thought that was gross.
Starting point is 00:11:38 I think... Producer Ellie, what are your thoughts on that? Yes, no, I have to do it in the morning and at night. I feel sticky at night. If you could only have one, which one do you pick? I actually just can't pick. Because I like both for different reasons, hence why I just do both. Well, you're going to be useless for this poll then.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Yeah, I really am, aren't I? I would ask Producer Ben, but I think I know the answer. I definitely only shower in the morning. If I'm showering. I was going to say, if at all. know the answer. I definitely only shower in the morning if I'm showering. I was going to say if at all. Bushman Ben. Nice. Let me ask you this, Clint. If your lovely wife, like the thing is
Starting point is 00:12:13 is that the people who don't shower at night time, if anything were to happen romantically Yeah. Well it won't because I haven't had a shower. Then you're filthy! I don't want to put my hands on that. No, it won't because I haven't had a shower. Then you're filthy. I don't want to put my hands on that. No, no one does.
Starting point is 00:12:27 So why am I bothering with the shower? You know, like just... No, but then there's not even a chance. It's a catch-22. You see, that's a catch-22. Yeah. Do you want to put this out there as an ultimatum, the one you just put to Ellie?
Starting point is 00:12:37 I think it'll be a 50-50 from the people, but I'd like to see, yeah. If you could only have one. If you can only have one, you can't have both, are you showering at night time before bed or are you showering the next day in the morning? Surely the morning is going to come out. Surely I'm in the majority here.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Surely not. You're the paranoid one and I'm the normal one in this situation. You're the dirty one. Okay, just for contributing to our shower poll, if you get on here today, you're going to win yourself some Arnott's chocolate blocks because everyone who gets on the show this week is winning some of that Arnott's chocolate from us.
Starting point is 00:13:10 And we'll get the results of the poll next. Oh, $800 at M, or you can text through what you would do on 9696. Yeah, you got that. Bree and Clint. Oh, the text machine is on fire. It is literally blowing up.
Starting point is 00:13:25 I guess everyone showers, right? So you're going to have an opinion. You'd hope so, but it's the debate that always comes up every now and then. Is it better to shower at night time before bed or the next morning? If you had to pick one, which one are you picking? I'm a morning showerer, which means I don't shower before bed, and I didn't realise how triggering that was for people. That's so triggering for me.
Starting point is 00:13:47 If I was dating you, and this sounds so horrible, but if I was dating you and you came over and I knew you hadn't showered, I'd be like, all right, sleep time for you. Like I just would not be interested. Right. Okay. I'd just be like, oh, you've literally. I guess this is the fundamental difference.
Starting point is 00:14:07 And you've got dirty undies on. This is the fundamental difference, right? You see yourself, first of all, as dirty at the end of the day, right? I do, yeah. Yeah. I am. I've lived all day. Yeah, but I don't.
Starting point is 00:14:18 I've sweated. Unless I've gone and played some sport or been to the gym or something like that. So you don't smell at all? Not to me. After a whole day. Let's call your wife and ask her. Let's run this poll, shall we? Amy's here.
Starting point is 00:14:33 Hey, Amy. Hi, Amy. Hi. Hey, congratulations for getting on here. You've got some Arnott's chocolate blocks, so that's done. Well done. Thank you. What are you picking, Amy, if you can only pick one?
Starting point is 00:14:43 Definitely in the morning. In the morning. In the morning? Yeah. You want to go out and face the day fresh, right? You don't want to be all beard gross. Yeah, that's usually how I wake myself up before work. It doesn't make sense. Also, that's a great point too.
Starting point is 00:14:58 It's important for the wake-up process. Like it helps to snap you out of your sleep funk. Darren's here. Hey, Darren. Hey, how's it going? Hey, Daz. What are you thinking, morning or night? I'm with you, Bree.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Definitely at night. It's got to be, mate. It has to be. Wait, do you like work? I've got to wash everything off. Do you work outdoors or you're like an underground coal mine or something and you can't get into your bed because you actually look dirty? No, I work on the ferry, so it is quite physical.
Starting point is 00:15:24 Yeah, not really. Oh, come on. No, like, oh, I'm saying you're working hard, but Clint's trying to say you're only showering at night because you're going to be super filthy, but I'm saying, nah, I think you're just doing the right thing. Okay. Yeah, you feel a lot better.
Starting point is 00:15:38 Yeah, I reckon too. This is the other... Better sleep, Daz, right? This is the other difference. I don't. I don't feel any different. Like, I feel that you're like, don't you want that refreshing feeling of sliding into your sheets all crispy and clean?
Starting point is 00:15:48 I think your wife would appreciate it. Yeah. Yeah. I can't give her everything she wants. Hey, Claudia. Hi, Claudia. I am a nighttime shower at Disney. Yes, Claudia.
Starting point is 00:16:00 Come over to the good side. Do you sleep alone, Claudia? I do. Okay, well, there's no one to mess with your routine. That's fine. Zoe. Hi, Zoe. Hi, Zoe.
Starting point is 00:16:10 Hi. What are you thinking on this one, Zoe? Well, I work in a butchery, so I'm definitely with you, Bree. Night shower, 100%. Yeah, you don't want to get into your clean sheets where it's meant to be a place of rest. You don't want to have B.R. in your sheets meant to be a place of rest. You don't want to be marinated all up your arms, all in your sheets. See, I like that word you just used, Zoe. You don't want to marinate your bed.
Starting point is 00:16:31 No, she's saying she would have marinated on her from the butchery. Yes, I don't want to marinate my bed anyway. Zoe, you're different though because you're a butcher. You can go to work smelly. You just go, oh, what's that smell? Oh, excuse you. That's the meat. She can. to work smelly. You just go, well, it goes, oh, what's that smell? And you go, that's the meat. She can. How dirty can you get in your sheets?
Starting point is 00:16:50 Yeah. Are you washing your sheets every day? No. Oh. No. Who's washing? Who's what psychopath is washing their sheets every day? Well, you should be.
Starting point is 00:16:58 You get in there dirty every night. I've lost the poets 3-1, but we'll go to Jamie anyway. Hey, Jamie. Hi. What are you thinking, Jamie? Morning or night? I'm a million percent 3-1 but we'll go to Jamie anyway. Hey Jamie. Hi Jamie. Hi. What are you thinking Jamie? Morning or night? I'm a million percent with you Bree. Yeah. It's got to be night time right? Yeah. Otherwise it's just not okay.
Starting point is 00:17:14 Can I just say for the record because I've come out of this looking like a real grot. I do shower. There's people who are with you. I do shower and I shower just as much as Bree. It's just I choose to do mine at the opposite end of the day. I sometimes shower morning and night. Oh, well, so do I if it's a special occasion,
Starting point is 00:17:29 but we're talking in absolutes here. What special occasion are you talking about? That's another story for another time. Jamie, we'll send you some Arnott's chocolate box. Hold on, I want to ask Jamie one question. Jamie, if you were dating someone and you knew they weren't a night time shower, would that turn you off a little bit for the fun time? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:46 I would definitely make them shower at night. I'm an infant. Clint, I'm so glad you're already married. Bree and Clint. There's a pizza hut that's under fire at the moment in Dunedin because apparently one of their workers was snapped not wearing shoes whilst preparing food. I say good on you.
Starting point is 00:18:08 No, you don't. Yeah. No, you don't. I don't think that would gross me out that much. Really? Yeah, like it's their feet. Yeah, but it's a restaurant. Yeah, but, I mean, they're not throwing food on the ground
Starting point is 00:18:20 and then putting it on your plate, are they? No, what if something does fall on the ground? Then you put it in the bin. Shouldn't go on your plate. Yeah, good point. Yeah. No, but no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's the principle too.
Starting point is 00:18:29 It's just, no, put your... I mean, this is... This is rich from you too, saying that it was rude of me. Just five minutes ago, you said it was rude of me to put my dirty feet in the bed. No, but see...
Starting point is 00:18:37 But now you're going to let old bloody Larry No Shoes cook your pizza in Dunedin. Yeah, but if he showers at night time before getting into bed, it's all good. Yeah, then it's fine. Yeah. How do people know?
Starting point is 00:18:47 Did someone get a photo of it? Yeah, so someone was there on Tuesday night and they took a picture of the guy. And anyway, he put it on social media. And people are really 50-50 on this. Yeah. Some people are saying, you know, this is absolutely gross. And other people are like, don't really see a problem.
Starting point is 00:19:06 There'd be some people who are like, sure, bro, too mech here, that's Kiwi styles. I understand that. Is he wearing jandals? Is he? I don't know. Apparently. Jandals, again, not okay because you're working in an environment with knives.
Starting point is 00:19:17 I do get the safety thing. I do get that. You're talking about dropping food. What about dropping a knife? Yeah. A pizza knife. I do love going barefoot, though. Yeah, it is liberating.
Starting point is 00:19:28 It feels so good, especially after a hot day. Being barefoot makes me feel like it's Ellie in the corner, by the way. Sorry, Flo. Are you right? Making pleasure sounds at the idea of having your shoes off. You know the feeling I'm talking about? Yeah. And taking your socks off after your shoes.
Starting point is 00:19:42 Oh, yeah. Okay, now I'm good. And then you, hang on, I'll release it off. And then you take your socks off after your shoes. Oh, yeah. Okay, now I'm good. And then you, hang on, I'll release it off. And then you take your bra off. And then you unbutton your pants. Oh, yes. And then if you've had your hair tied up all day, you take your hair tie out.
Starting point is 00:19:58 That's good too. Are you a girl? You know a lot about the great things about being a girl. You used to have a man bun. Ali's put a list together for us of places. What is this list? It's just a random list I've put together. I'm going to ask you if either of you have worn bare feet.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Is it worn bare feet? Had bare feet? Gone barefoot. Gone barefoot. That's the one. In any of these places. I'm going to put my bare feet on. Okay, so we're going to answer truthfully in our lives.
Starting point is 00:20:22 Have we ever gone barefoot to any of these locations? Yes. All right. The first one, pretty standard, but have you ever been to the supermarket in bare feet? Absolutely. Yes. Nice.
Starting point is 00:20:32 That's a Kiwi rite of passage. It is, eh? I saw someone, though they went to America, a New Zealander was in America, and they were going to the supermarket, and they went in bare feet, and they put up an Instagram story to go, man, I forgot this is not a thing in other parts of the world.
Starting point is 00:20:46 That's so true. You know, I saw, I told you, I saw Sonny Bill Williams at the countdown in Mount Eden in Auckland with no shoes on. Has he got muscly feet? He's got real muscly feet. Yeah, he would too. Okay, what else you got? What about a hospital? You've ever been
Starting point is 00:21:01 barefoot in a hospital? I imagine I'd go barefoot if I was a patient. I've been a patient and I've walked to the bathroom barefoot, so I guess that's a yes. Not me. I've never stayed in a hospital. Nice. Lucky you. Oh, you're so lucky.
Starting point is 00:21:14 That is very lucky. That is lucky. Even when my baby was born, I went home. You're like, I'm out of this dump. I'm done. What about a funeral? Have we done that? I hope not.
Starting point is 00:21:26 I haven't. But imagine if someone was like, when I die, I want everyone to just be free and wear no shoes. Or what about, you know how there's beach weddings? Is a beach funeral a thing? Oh, yeah. That's an interesting concept. Oh, I might do that.
Starting point is 00:21:40 What about if they're spreading the ashes? That could be a beach funeral. Grind your toes around them. What about if they're spreading the ashes? That could be a beach funeral. Really? Grind your toes around them. What about the old local dairy? Run in to get a drink. Yeah, that's just a mini supermarket. Get a pie and a choccy milk.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Exactly. What about your standard Mecca's or takeaway fast food chain? Yeah, that's what I have. Nah, not me. Was it dirty? It was after a night out and I've taken my heels off. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I've strolled on in.
Starting point is 00:22:10 And then you're just jabbing chicken McNuggets in your face in the corner. Oh, Auntie Bree's hungry. Yeah, give it to me. I've been to the races like that. I've been to a servo like that. Damn, you're more Kiwi than we thought. Bree and Clint. This is interesting for Harry Potter fans. The Harry Potter house is for sale.
Starting point is 00:22:28 This is kind of cool. Yeah. Now, not the house at Privet Drive. That's the one where he lived under the stairs with his cousins. You haven't read the book. No. But it is. He lived under the stairs with his, like, auntie and uncle, wasn't it? It's the house at Godric's Hollow,
Starting point is 00:22:46 which in the books is where Voldemort came and killed Harry's parents. Spoiler alert if you're yet to tuck into the books. So the house is obviously haunted. So that's what you say, and that's what the owners are saying too. It's for sale. It's been for sale for ages. How long? They have been trying to sell the house.
Starting point is 00:23:06 Can't find a buyer. It's been on the market for two and a half years. Oh, my God. They've slashed the price by nearly $100,000. Jesus. And still no one wants to buy it, even though it's the Harry Potter house. How much is it? A million dollars, million pounds, about almost two million New Zealand dollars.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Jeez, is it a big place? Yes, it looks pretty big. I don't know. Look, I don't know the area that it's in, but I guess maybe that's what houses go for. Plus, it's the Harry Potter house, so it's iconic. It's very cool. It is like, to England, what the Kath and Kim house is to Australia. Yeah, or the outrageous fortune houses to New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:23:47 Or if the Simpsons house was a real place, what that would be to America. Yeah, or the Brady Bunch house or... To America. That sort of thing, yeah. But yeah, the owners are saying nah, it's not selling because people think that it's cursed by Lord Voldemort. I believe that.
Starting point is 00:24:04 That guy, he's cray. You, again, haven't seen Harry Potter or read any of the books. I saw the first one briefly. Right, okay. I tried to watch. Can I just say I was dating someone who was the biggest Harry Potter fan and we got into an argument because I hadn't seen any of the movies. So one weekend I said, right, I'm going to watch them all.
Starting point is 00:24:25 I got halfway through the second one and went, oh, I can lie my way through this. I'll just say I'll watch them all. You think you could lie your way through Harry Potter? Oh, I read a few facts. One of the most like graphic and intricate storylines of recent times. You're like, oh, bluff it. Let's just say that relationship didn't work out.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Bree and Clint. Kim Kardashian's gone on Instagram and shared what the latest gift she's got from Kanye is. Now, Kanye's a big gifter. What did you talk about love languages a while ago? There's five different types. Giving gifts is one of them. So his way of showing affection is through gifts, I feel.
Starting point is 00:25:05 This is the man who in the past has given Kim Giving gifts is one of them. So his way of showing affection is through gifts, I feel. Obviously. This is the man who in the past has given Kim a $3 million engagement ring. He organised Kenny G to play saxophone for her in their house surrounded by individually-varsed red roses. And there's also rumours that he bought her 10 Burger Kings. He bought her 10 Burger Kings? Yeah, Burger King denied it, but that's the rumour. he bought her 10 Burger Kings. He bought her 10 Burger Kings? Yeah, Burger King denied it, but that's the rumour. He bought her 10 Burger Kings.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Oh. Yeah, I don't know why she'd want 10 Burger Kings. Why, because she's his queen? Oh. Is that why? Yeah, because he wants to flame grill at it. I don't know. The new gift Kim has put on Instagram, it's pretty thoughtful.
Starting point is 00:25:44 It's not the sort of thing, well, you could replicate this actually, but you probably couldn't do the real version. He's given her a vintage Cartier necklace. Cartier the Julia. The Julia. The Julia. Cartier necklace.
Starting point is 00:25:58 And on it is a gold plate. And then engraved on the gold plate. Like what? Like a dinner plate? No, no, no. Like a gold, like a, think a dinner plate? No, no, no, like a gold, like a, think of like a dog tag. Okay. Like a piece of gold.

Starting point is 00:26:25 So it's a text that he sent her via iMessage, and it says, this is your life. Married with four kids. Get people out of jail. Cover of Vogue. Go to church every week with your family. Dreams come true.
Starting point is 00:26:40 And that's the gift. That's the gift he's given Kim. So do you think that's romantic? Do you think that's a nice thing? Yeah I think it's you know It obviously means something to them She's shared it with a screenshot Of the actual text message conversation There's the necklace there
Starting point is 00:26:56 You can see it on TV See like a gold plate What would you call that? Pendant A pendant Gold pendant Yeah So I thought this is interesting
Starting point is 00:27:05 Because if Kanye was to get you this necklace What would go on yours? So what I want you to do Is open up your phone And go to Oh no Your text messages With your current partner

Starting point is 00:27:44 If Sam, your boyfriend, was to give you a necklace with the last text message he sent you on it, what would it say? I think one is our joint debit card and one is my credit card. Oh, my God. You love each other. I know. Finances.
Starting point is 00:28:02 You guys are forever. Joint finances. If Lucy was to get me one of these necklaces that had the last text message we exchanged each other on it, it would read, I didn't eat that dumplings. I just had corn thins and peanut butter. So they're all yours if you want them.
Starting point is 00:28:22 True love. Food. And producer Ben? The last text I got? Yeah, from whoever you're seeing at the moment. Okay. House is all yours. Alarm pin is 282.

Thoughtful, different, interesting, unique noise. So we've asked you if we were to immortalise your partner's last text message to you on a necklace,
Starting point is 00:29:44 what would it read, right? There's quite a few text messages coming through of people sending in their partner's last text to them. I'll read out a few. There's quite a few good ones. Someone texted through and they said, I have a chafed bum from the gym. Do you have any cream?
Starting point is 00:30:01 Oh, that's good. Put that on a necklace. Beautiful. So lovely. Immortalise that forever, yeah. Yeah, someone else said, I's good. Put that on a necklace. Beautiful. So lovely. Immortalise that forever. Yeah. Yeah. Someone else said, I hope you're okay.
Starting point is 00:30:08 I'm sorry. I just need some time to think to myself. Oh, probably don't. I don't know if I'd put, maybe not that one. Maybe wait a while. Yeah, I'd wait. See if it's worth investing in a necklace. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:19 And the last one I'll read out, someone texted through and said, Hank has a poo stuck in his bum and I can't get it out. I think he ate some rope. How do I get it out? Help! And then they've written here, Hank is our puppy. Oh, thank God. Jason to you.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Hey, Jason. Hi, Jase. Hey, how's it going? Good, man. So you're going to get a necklace given to you with the last message your partner wrote to you in text message. What does your necklace say? I'll have a cream donut.
Starting point is 00:30:53 I like that. Says it all. Very loving. Yeah, very loving. It's like love is the shape of a donut. It goes round. It would be nicer if it said, can I get you a cream donut?
Starting point is 00:31:02 That would be nice, yeah. But hey, you can't win them all. That's cool. Wait there, we've got some chocolate blocks for you. Jason, well done. Awesome, cheers. Sweet. Jane's here.
Starting point is 00:31:10 Hi, Jane. Hi, Jane. Hi. All right, if your partner's last text message they sent you was getting immortalised on a necklace, what would it be? Don't hurry home. Don't worry, I had to scroll through my messages first I'd sent him about five messages that were unanswered
Starting point is 00:31:28 Before I found the last one that he'd actually answered And that's what it was Why did he not want you to hurry home? Well, I can't remember exactly what that was I may have actually been out Can I tell you, Jane Anytime I've ever sent that text It's when obviously he's sitting on the toilet.
Starting point is 00:31:47 Don't hurry home. Don't hurry home. Don't hurry home. Time to air out the bathroom. Thanks, Jane. And a chocolate box for you too. And Ajali? Anjali.
Starting point is 00:31:56 Anjali, hi. Oh, hi there. Mine is my husband's at home with our three-month-old baby, and he sent a photo message. It says, when you've got to poo, but baby is restless, so we both go. And it's got the whole baby bed outside the toilet. He's dragged the crib to the toilet so he can go and do number twos. The whole Moses basket and his band.
Starting point is 00:32:21 That is couple goals. Yeah. I get it though. Like I've mastered the act of going just number ones whilst wearing the baby Bjorn
Starting point is 00:32:31 because when you've got to go you've got to go. Oh really? What's the carry on? What else are you going to do in those situations?
Starting point is 00:32:38 Oh yeah. It's hard. Multitasking. Beautiful. Okay, and it's chocolate blocks for you too. Free and Clint.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Cat people, listen up. Meow. That's how we get their attention Calls them to attention They're a little ears per cup Have you ever wondered And I hadn't until I did some reading today And I found out that this is what some people worry about Have you ever wondered that if you dropped dead today and I hadn't until I did some reading today and I found out that this is what some people worry about.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Have you ever wondered that if you dropped dead today, would your cat eat your corpse? Oh, no. Why would you be thinking about that? I wasn't, but it turns out quite a lot of people are. Cats are hunters and they need food to survive, right? And if you drop dead and no one's putting out the bickies, they can't open the tin, you know?
Starting point is 00:33:29 So would your cat then go, well, if I'm going to survive this, I'm going to have to eat my owner? Oh, this is grim. Or are cats like dogs, loyal to the bitter end and they won't eat you? Well, if it's out of dogs and cats, I think I'd trust the dog more, I think. I think so too. A mortician has published a book titled Would Fluffy Eat Eat Me If I Dropped Dead And according to the book They're seller actually
Starting point is 00:33:49 Flying off shelves According to this book And scientific research The answer is yes Your cat would eat you if you dropped dead Yuck The book includes evidence Like pictures
Starting point is 00:34:04 He's a mortician He deals with death Yuck The book includes evidence Like pictures What He's a mortician Okay He deals with He deals with death Why are you bringing These grim stories To the radio
Starting point is 00:34:12 Because I think it's interesting I think it's interesting Like lots of people Have got cats It's relatable You're You're interesting mate Okay this is
Starting point is 00:34:20 If you think that's Grim It's going to get a bit grimmer Why Well because I've got details So the book includes Pictures Of two different cats If you think that's grim, it's going to get a bit grimmer. Why? Well, because I've got details. So the book includes pictures of two different cats having eaten two different human corpses. And both cats have opted for the arm.
Starting point is 00:34:42 They've both preferred to go for arm flesh over any other part of the body. What, the touch-up arm? It just says arm tissue. The fleshy part of the arm. They've both preferred to go for arm flesh over any other part of the body. What, the tuck shop arm? It just says arm tissue. The fleshy part of the arm. Yeah, they opted for that. It was a... This is where it gets really interesting.
Starting point is 00:34:54 So they're not random occurrences. It was a... Is anyone else listening right now and thinking, uh, Clint's finally lost it? No, no, no. This is interesting. Yep, the baby, the late nights, and, no, no. This is interesting. Yep, the baby, the late nines,
Starting point is 00:35:07 and the no sleep has finally gotten to him. No, it is interesting. Can I just tell you how they did the experiment and then I'll leave it alone? Okay. So there's a place called Body Farm where if you die, you know how you can donate your body to science?
Starting point is 00:35:20 Yeah. If you die, you can go, do some research on me. There's this place and they have bodies out there that have been donated to science and at any one time they have around a dozen bodies decomposing in different ways
Starting point is 00:35:32 so they can study the way the body breaks down, which has implications for things like forensic science and they can look at time of death and stuff like that and yadda yadda yadda yadda. So they managed to get two of those bodies to be used for the cat experiment Can you imagine that you dedicated your body to science
Starting point is 00:35:50 You said I want to be part of research What, then they put the body in the house with the cats? Yeah, and then they go, you're going to be the cat one Thanks for your body We're going to see if a cat nibbles you I'd be a little bit disappointed i'm not gonna lie yeah right yeah i thought i'd be like part of like a brain scan or something and they're like no we want to see if you've got yummy arms for cats i thought it was interesting
Starting point is 00:36:23 i need to grab the attention of all the sparkling water drinkers out there. Present. In the show, producers, who's keen on a bit of sparkling water? I don't like it at all. At all? I hate it. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:38 I didn't know it was a thing to hate. I think it tastes like batteries. I don't really like it. I don't hate it as much as these two, but I don't really like it. Like you would rather drink normal water. I think it's a great way to fun up your water. So would you say you would rather drink sparkling water than normal water? Yes.
Starting point is 00:36:55 Yeah. Same with my flatmate, Big Gay Gorgeous Al. He loves it. I find regular water intensely boring. It's water. Yeah, exactly right. And I have to have it. If I had the choice, I wouldn't drink it.
Starting point is 00:37:07 You're not drinking it for a good time. You're drinking it to live. That's a great point. I know. So why not make it fun with bubbles? That's my opinion. And this is the thing. This is a lot of people think that sparkling water literally is just,
Starting point is 00:37:19 you know, obviously the carbonated water. Yeah, it's carbonated water with bubbles in it. And it's exactly the same. Yeah. There's an article that's come out on The Herald and this could come as quite a shock to a lot of people, but they're saying that unfortunately they reckon sparkling water is actually worse for you than normal water.
Starting point is 00:37:40 It's not the same. How is it bad for you? Well, they're saying that obviously, you know, when you take a sip of sparkling water and you have that good feeling in your mouth of all the bubbles, you know, the fun part, or any carbonated drink, is in fact a chemical activation of the pain receptors on your tongue. Yeah, that's all right.
Starting point is 00:38:00 I don't mind a bit of pain. Right? So the problem with that is that it's an acidic drink and it causes harm to your teeth. How is it acidic? People have tried to say this before, but it's just water with some bubbles in it. Oh, I've got an answer for that too.
Starting point is 00:38:14 Where does the acid come into it? Sparkling water is made by injecting pressurised carbon dioxide into water. This produces carbonic acid with a weak acidic pH of between three and four. Right, okay. And apparently, yeah, it's not great for your teeth. And you probably don't even remember this, but we actually called my old dentist last year because we had an argument about it. We had an argument about is sparkling water bad for you?
Starting point is 00:38:44 Have I blocked this out of my memory? You must have. He probably said something I didn't want to hear and my brain went, don't remember that Clint. We found the old audio. You don't need that. And this is us asking my old dentist is sparkling water bad for you? Is sparkling water bad for your teeth?
Starting point is 00:39:00 The sparkling is due to carbonation as a general rule which means that there's a little bit of carbonic acid in it. So it's not great for your teeth, but don't squish it and swill it. It should be fine. All right. Do you remember this?
Starting point is 00:39:14 Not at all. You're like, I'm just drinking my sparkling water. That's like, I was like, even hearing myself, I was like, I don't remember saying this. I don't remember any of this at all. I love how you've just blocked it out so you can still drink sparkling water. Two things I take away from this. What?
Starting point is 00:39:28 One at the end there where he goes, just don't swish it around in your mouth. That's not what I'm doing. I'm just sending it straight down the mouth hole. And the other one, doesn't matter because I'm going to forget this as well. Brie and Clint. Once upon a time, there was a girl.
Starting point is 00:39:44 She was smart, debatable, talented, athletic. Not really. Picking a movie based on just the plot line? That she can do. Brie and Clint's What's the Plot?

Greg, yes, it is Bad Boys 3, but the title of the film is Bad Boys for Life. My bum hole puckered up real tight just then.
Starting point is 00:42:18 I want to see that so bad, but I want to re-watch the first two first. Yeah, me too. Okay. Oh, good. I like this. We're at tie break. This is for the win. And the third movie we will be using an audio clue for. Oh! good. I like this. We're at tie break. This is for the win. And the third movie we will be using an audio clue for.
Starting point is 00:42:27 Oh. Okay. Movies that are in cinemas right now, your audio cue is this. Brie. Brie. I'm going to give you five seconds. No, don't count me. Don't you count me. No, you don't count anyone else.
Starting point is 00:42:45 I'm counting in my head. Star Wars. Too long. No, no. Way too long. That is bullshit. Way too long. No, I'm thinking.
Starting point is 00:42:56 Way too long. Say it right now. The Rise of Luke Skywalker. Wrong. Damn it. Greg, you have one chance at this to take the game. What is the name of the movie that's in cinemas right now that this audio clue is referencing?
Starting point is 00:43:13 Is it Star Wars The Last Dance? Back to Bree. Is it Star Wars? We gave away tickets to it at the end of the year. I know we did! At this stage, anyone can buzz in and have a go. The return of Luke Skywalker? Greg?
Starting point is 00:43:39 Greg? Come on. Star Wars. There's so bloody many of them. How are we meant to know? Right, okay. We're going to call this a draw. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:44:00 The correct answer to it is Star Wars Rise of Skywalker God damn it I was so close You guys were both off to such a ripping start as well Come on If we had to give it to someone Surely I was closer Number one
Starting point is 00:44:19 Greg you get some chocolate for playing We're going to send you out some Arnott's chocolate blocks Congratulations Thanks for playing Greg Thank you get some chocolate for playing. We're going to send you out some Arnott's chocolate blocks. Congratulations. Thanks for playing, Greg. Thank you very much, Greg, and thanks. Good game, actually. A joy has been in and a loss, eh? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:32 Very, very impressed with your performance today, Greg. Thank you for playing. We're looking for people's OTT first date stories where, you know the stories we're talking about, you know where someone goes maybe a bit over the top on a first date. Yeah, because contrary to what movies tell you, people don't necessarily want that. No, people.
Starting point is 00:44:54 There's charm in a laid back, understated first date, right? I think so too, and especially females. Like as a female myself, I don't want you to randomly surprise me at my house, which I haven't given you to randomly surprise me at my house, which I haven't given you the address for. With a limo. With a limo. No, thank you.
Starting point is 00:45:11 I'm okay. Just text me the address of the bar. And I'll meet you there. And I'll be there 10 minutes late. Exactly. But I think this one takes the cake for me because billionaire, he's a Japanese billionaire. His name is Yusaka Mazawa, I think.
Starting point is 00:45:27 He's 44 and he's worth about $3 billion New Zealand dollars. Oh, yeah, okay. Yeah, so he's worth a lot of money. Anyway, he recently went through a breakup with his 20-something-year-old girlfriend. He's 44. He's now on the hunt for a new girlfriend, and he's suggested a first date option.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Okay, so what does a first date look like with a Japanese billionaire? Well, he said the lucky woman will be featured in his documentary called Full Moon Lovers, and he will take her to the moon. Eh? He said he's looking for a girl to join him for the SpaceX voyage in a couple of years' time. And he said that, yeah, he wants to find his life partner, and he's taking applicants right now.
Starting point is 00:46:28 Love you to the moon and back, literally. Pretty much. Right, okay. So let's break this down. This is a first date. Yeah. You're going to be in a documentary, so whether it goes good or bad,
Starting point is 00:46:37 you're going to be immortalised on film. And second of all, you have to go to outer space. I don't think it's like going to Italy. I think you have to do, like, training to go to outer space. I don't think it's like going to Italy. I think you have to do training to go to outer space. It's not even like going to Christchurch for the weekend. If it goes bad, you can just get on a plane and come back to Auckland. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You'll be on the moon.
Starting point is 00:46:55 A spaceship. You'll be on the moon. I don't think you land on the moon. You don't? The SpaceX flight. No, they're not landing on the moon. Oh, they're not? No, they just go into outer space.
Starting point is 00:47:04 I think you go into orbit. Oh, well, that's disappointing. Right? Yeah. Yeah, one or more out of this billionaire. No, and also, if he's asking for it now, he obviously needs registrations of interest. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:17 But then do you have to avoid each other for the next, because the SpaceX flights aren't even operating yet. Well, that's true. He's saying he's looking at this for 2023. You have to stay out of each other's orbit until you both arrive at the SpaceX space station. Well, he might. What I've got from the story is he's looking to go on this trip in 2023. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:38 So you probably will date, obviously, before that. But he's saying he's pretty much wanting a girlfriend to go on this trip. Yeah. You don't need to try that hard. We've already established that like normal people, you don't have to try that hard. Stop offering people trips to the moon. You're a billionaire.
Starting point is 00:47:55 Like you don't need to try that hard. Because most people will just date you because you're a billionaire, bro. Like you'll be... Yeah, you don't need to offer the trips to the moon. Save yourself the $450,000 a seat or whatever it costs to get on the rocket ship. Reinvest.
Starting point is 00:48:10 Can you imagine? She gets back from this trip in outer space and her girlfriend's like, oh my God, how was it? And she's like, yeah, it was okay. Just no atmosphere. I thought I was the dad on this show. We want to know about your over-the-top first dates. Obviously, it won't be like this.
Starting point is 00:48:33 I want to know about the disasters. Oh, no. I mean, let's get the nice ones too. We want to know if it felt uncomfortable at first. Like, it's okay if you guys ended up together in the long run, but when you first went on that date, were you like, well, man, this is too much? I also want to know.
Starting point is 00:48:49 For a first date, this is way too much. I also want to know about those ones where someone just went too far and it just turned you off because they went over the top. Like, what did they do? And this is helping people because, you know, sometimes buying them, you know, four cars worth of roses is probably a bit much. Yeah, it's too much. Oh, $800.00 at M.
Starting point is 00:49:10 If your over-the-top first date story makes it to air this afternoon, you'll score for yourself some free Arnott's chocolate blocks just for getting on air with us. What were they doing to lay it on thick? You can also text us on 9696. Bree and Clint. All right, so Japanese billionaire Yusaka Mazawa, 44, is asking if anyone will join him on a trip to the moon as his girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:49:35 For a first date. For a first date. I mean, you're going, you're setting the bar high. Yeah. What's the second date? I don't know. To Mars? Yeah, go view the Titanic up close.
Starting point is 00:49:47 Oh, yeah, that'd be cool. So we're asking you this afternoon on 0800DIALZM, when have they gone over the top, too over the top for a first date maybe? We've established that it's not necessarily what even girls want, right? Like you want a guy to put some effort in but there's a line. Where is the line? Maybe we can try and find out where the line is today. Yeah, that's a good idea. I'll read out one text that someone has sent
Starting point is 00:50:12 through. Someone said he got me a helicopter ride for the two of us for our first date. Then his best mate turned up as he was a helicopter fanatic. I then sat awkwardly in the back seat as they got photos together on the top of the mountain.
Starting point is 00:50:34 Oh, that's good. Natasha, hi. Hi, Tash. Hi. What happened to you? What was the over-the-top date? Well, it wasn't just my first date with the sky. It was my first date ever.
Starting point is 00:50:45 Picture this, I'm 16 and I go with this guy. I will go somewhere for dinner. He takes me to the graveyard. He stays on his father's grave for half an hour and then tells me that when we get married that I'll have to dye my hair blonder because blondes are better in bed, apparently.
Starting point is 00:51:04 Run, run, run. Yeah, pretty much did. So that was my first ever dating experience. Sorry, you poor thing. Sorry, Natasha. You had a meal over his father's dead body. I wouldn't eat. It was awkward.
Starting point is 00:51:19 And I'm an eater, believe me. And I'm an eater. You were 16. Yep. How do you deal with that at 16? And I'm Anita, believe me. And I'm Anita. You were 16? Yep. How did you deal with that at 16? Yeah, right. Well done.
Starting point is 00:51:31 Thank you for calling us. We have chocolate for you. Oh, I don't know if you can top that. Charlene. Hi, Charlene. Hi, Sharp. Hi. What happened to you, mate?
Starting point is 00:51:47 Me and a friend, we used to talk about, like, like advice and gyming stuff and then one day we decided to go for a run and he suggested along um a beach so i went with him but he had parked his car i don't know how he did it but he parked his car at the end of the run and when we were running he's like oh um just want to come to my car in his car, he had like chocolate and platters of food. And he basically forced me on a date on our first run together. Wait, wait, wait. So he was a friend. Was he a friend at that stage? And he was like, oh, we got fitness in common.
Starting point is 00:52:18 Let's go for a run. And then he ran you into a date in his car. Yeah. Yeah, no, yeah, I escaped quite easily. I escaped. Yeah, you ran. Yeah, no, that was definitely scary. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:52:33 Race you back. Good, we've got chocolate for you too. Nicole's here. Hi, Nicole. Hi, Nicole. Hi. What happened on your date? So I met this guy in town and we exchanged numbers and then we went on our first date.
Starting point is 00:52:47 And he picked me up in a BMW and I was like low-key quite impressed. I was a uni student. And so he picked me up on the way to dinner, filled the car up with gas. And so I'm sitting in the passenger seat. He goes in to pay for it and he's in there for ages. I'm getting quite bored at this stage and then I find out later on
Starting point is 00:53:07 that his car has bounced and he needed his dad to come and pay for the gas. So anyway, and then he comes back to the car and he's like, oh sorry, I was actually trying to impress you by not just putting in 20 bucks. He said he wanted to fill it up.
Starting point is 00:53:23 He thought doing a full tank was a good flex on a first date. Yeah, he did. And then the same thing happened when he tried to pay for dinner. So I ended up paying for dinner. Bless him. Yeah, bless him. It's a bit cute. It is a bit cute.
Starting point is 00:53:40 He tried. Yeah. It was just unfortunate. His father was one of the lecturers at my uni. I was going to say, Nicole, what do you mean he tried? He knew he didn't have any money. Do you mean he just tried to use his card? I mean, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:53:56 He's like, oh, give it a whirl. He tried to cheat the system. Nicole, and it's chocolate blocks for you too. Congratulations. Thank you for calling us.

Starting point is 01:00:02 As a man, I can't really play this too loud at the traffic lights, but it gets turned up when I'm on the motorway. I love that text. Did you know that when that song came out, Mattel, the people who make Barbie, sued Aqua? Did they? Yeah, they said that they turned Barbie into a sex object. Yeah, well, kind of fair enough.
Starting point is 01:00:23 No, well, and Aqua said, no, you've put your own meaning into our lyrics there. And a judge ruled that Aqua were allowed to do whatever they want. The song was protected by free speech. Really? I guess because Barbie is now like just a part of popular culture. Yeah, exactly. So you can't not talk about it.
Starting point is 01:00:41 I mean, it's like when, you know, singers put artists' names in their songs. Yeah, like a name check, right? You know, yeah. So, yeah, they threw it out and they didn't have to pay any money for it. That's so interesting. And, I mean, can you imagine? I mean, it put Barbie back on the map.
Starting point is 01:00:58 Yeah. Sometimes the feeling is right. Oh, change. Bree and Clint. Over the Christmas break, I got to do something pretty special for me. I got to spend the first ever Christmas with my baby daughter, Tui. Yes. Yeah, and what I really wanted out of it,
Starting point is 01:01:15 this is what I really wanted to take away from Christmas was... More gifts for your child. No, no more gifts. No, I don't want any more clutter in the house. Also, she wouldn't remember, so I'd be happy if she got no gifts. That's fine. You and I joked over the holidays where you and I were like, just give her some bottle caps and some wrapping paper.
Starting point is 01:01:29 She'll be stoked. Just give her the box of whatever I get. Yeah, she'll love it. She'll have the best Christmas ever. No, what I really wanted was a nice family photo. Okay. Me, my wife, and my daughter, Tui. If I could get that, that would be my Christmas sorted.
Starting point is 01:01:43 Oh, I know where this is going. Me too. I ruined that gift for myself by the day before Christmas giving myself a hickey in the middle of my forehead. Literally right on the top of your forehead. It's so obvious, isn't it? It's so bad it looks like I'm doing Indian cultural appropriation. Tell people how you did it. So I was sitting on the couch on Christmas Eve
Starting point is 01:02:08 and I had, you know, those suction cups that you use to like put things on the window, like it might be like a car blind or. Oh, yeah. Just like a little suction cup. Just playing with one. And I stuck it to my forehead. And I swear to God, I swear to God
Starting point is 01:02:24 that suction cup was on my forehead for 90 seconds tops. Wow. And they went, pulled it off. Hickey. No, I was watching the cricket. I was saying you had a hickey. And then my sister-in-law goes to me, what's on your forehead? Over the next 24 hours, it got worse and worse and worse until the picture you guys can see
Starting point is 01:02:44 in the studio at the moment. That's what my forehead looked like. 24 hours, it got worse and worse and worse until the picture you guys can see in the studio at the moment. Yeah, it's good. That's what my forehead looked like. And every photo I've got with my daughter on Christmas Day, I have this raging red hickey in the centre of my forehead. It's real bad. Yeah. So what I thought was, for fun, why don't we do it again?
Starting point is 01:03:00 Oh, no. I've got the suction cup here. Don't look at me. You want to do another one? I've got the actual suction cup. And why don't one of us... Oh, yeah. Oh, it's got to be producer Ben. Put it on our forehead.
Starting point is 01:03:14 I like that. Because the girls, I mean, we can't have that on our faces. You'd be more likely to, like, you know, get into an accident where someone's like, oh, he's bumped his head. It doesn't look like a bump, does it? Well, you are, you know, you're the only single one now, so you're probably more likely to be doing that kind of activity. What does that even mean?
Starting point is 01:03:35 There is absolutely no point in arguing. I love the reason I'm here. Because I've got Rebecca here. Hi, Rebecca. Hello. Now, you're aware of everybody on the show, right? You know who Bree is, you know who I am, Ellie, Rebecca. Hello. Now, you're aware of everybody on the show, right? You know who Bree is. You know who I am. Ellie, Ben.
Starting point is 01:03:47 I do. And I've got a really good reason why the girls should not do this. Yes! No, no, no. They should do it. Oh, even better. Because they've got makeup and they can cover it up. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:59 Oh, Rebecca. And fringes. I thought we were friends. We are, but come on, if we think about it logically, if we break it down to logic. I mean, I know this world that we live in now doesn't even know what that is. Okay, Rebecca, don't get too political.
Starting point is 01:04:14 Just think about how crack up it would be if Brie did it and then tell us. Yeah, that would be hilarious if Brie did it because she'd have a story. Rebecca. Who's putting the suction cup on their forehead, Rebecca? Producer Ben.
Starting point is 01:04:27 What? Yes! Oh, Bec, you reeled me in there. Oh, she did. Definitely me. Love you, Bec. Okay, Ben, come on over here, mate. Come on over here.
Starting point is 01:04:38 Oh, no. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to pop this on. This is the best day ever. That was such a twist. Okay, cool. That's on there. Okay, so you said how long was such a twist. Okay, cool. That's on there. Okay, so you said how long was it on there for?
Starting point is 01:04:47 It just needs to be on there for 90 seconds to two minutes and then we whip it off. So what we're going to do is we're going to play a song. Can I say Rebecca's MVP of the show today? No, she's not. This is the reasons and then
Starting point is 01:05:02 Clint's like, who's it going to be? She's like, producer Ben. We're going to play one song and then we're going to come back and we're going to see. We'll take the suction cup off together and see if it works. I love it. Okay. Bree and Clint, back after this. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 01:05:18 Over the summer, I accidentally gave myself a hickey in the middle of my forehead with a suction cup. Just happened to be the day before Christmas and so all my Christmas photos with my new baby now have me with a big red hickey in the centre. But what a memory to have. What a memory to have. What a great memory. And what a great memory to offer you guys, my friends.
Starting point is 01:05:36 And that's why we've played Forehead Hickey Roulette. Where listener of the show Rebecca has selected producer Ben to place the same suction cup on his forehead where it is currently. Rebecca, welcome back to the show, Rebecca, has selected producer Ben to place the same suction cup on his forehead where it is currently. Rebecca, welcome back to the show. Thanks, Glenn.
Starting point is 01:05:51 I'd like to say it's a great lesson to teach a child about stupidity and how not to do it. Yeah, thanks, Bec. Bec, I need to ask, because in the break, Clint goes, oh, I was eligible as well. Did you realise that Clint was eligible to do the hickey on the forehead again? You're both just a man when he's down, Brie.
Starting point is 01:06:08 Yeah, thanks, Jameka. I knew it was assumed. I didn't have to say it out loud. Anyway, it's Ben who has it on the forehead. How does it feel at the moment? Is it hurting? No, it doesn't hurt. No, that's what happened to me.
Starting point is 01:06:19 You didn't even realise it was on there. Oh, no. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to pull it off. Oh, no. Okay, yeah. It's been on a hell of a lot longer than Clint, by the way. It's going to be black.
Starting point is 01:06:28 Are you ready? Are you ready? I'm going to turn this down and hope that we can hear it. Are you ready? Count us down. Three, two, one. Oh.
Starting point is 01:06:36 Oh. Is it bad? It's bad, eh? Not even anything. Oh, yes. Currently, there's nothing there. Fantastic. Good.
Starting point is 01:06:44 Yeah. Do hickeys surface immediately? Yes. Yep. Yeah, there's nothing there. Fantastic. Good. Do hickeys surface immediately? Yes. Yep. Yeah, they definitely do. I think when inside's empty. Alright, well, Rebecca, there's no hickey just yet, but if it comes out, we will absolutely be putting it on Instagram, okay?
Starting point is 01:07:03 What a letdown! Again! Again! If it doesn't come up, we should put it on again. Let's put it on his bum! Yay! I forgot to look at it. Maybe that's why. This is actual bullshit, by the way. Sorry to
Starting point is 01:07:23 keep going on about the suction cup hickey roulette thing, but we just put the suction cup on Ben's head for two and a half minutes. Doesn't do anything. And did nothing. There's still no mark? Ellie, is there a mark on there? Ellie? Is there a mark on Ben's head?
Starting point is 01:07:37 No, there's not. Nothing at all? And then I said to you, I was like, you should test it again on your head. As a joke. And then you put it back on your head for 10 seconds and you've got another hickey. So 10 seconds on Ben. 10 seconds on Ben.
Starting point is 01:07:53 Nothing. No, sorry, two and a half minutes on Ben. Two and a half minutes. Nothing. 10 seconds on Ben. Come here. I'm doing it to you for 10 seconds. Give me the cup.
Starting point is 01:07:59 Come in here. Maybe it only needs to be on there for 10 seconds. I just did it as well for 10 seconds. I've got nothing. I can't believe I'm back in this situation again. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, let me... Can you count it? Yeah, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
Starting point is 01:08:19 All right, pull it off. Nothing. Nothing. It's just me. You know what it is. So it's just me. Your skin is... What? Older. Nothing. Nothing. It's just me. You know what it is. So it's just me. Your skin is older. No.
Starting point is 01:08:29 So it might be more susceptible to it. That's rich. Because you've got older skin. No, I don't have old, thin skin. Excuse me. Maybe your skin is thin. No, I'm not like an old bleeder. We've got a bleeder.
Starting point is 01:08:41 Your grandma brushes past the door frame and she's like, uh-oh. Oh, you are at that age That's right Now how do I explain this forehead hickey to my wife Uggy I just want to read out the headline of this story And I want you to tell me how it makes you feel Sure
Starting point is 01:08:57 Groom plays video at reception of bride having With brother-in-law. Ah. What? That is hardcore, isn't it? So he, whoa. He indoor gardened the brother-in-law with the bride. So his brother?
Starting point is 01:09:18 Yeah. Why did he wait until the reception to show the video? I don't know. Apparently. So he married this woman first. Yeah. And then during his speech, he decided to go, hey, check this out. It's crack up as.
Starting point is 01:09:29 Well. It's my wife sleeping with my brother. I don't think he was like, this is crack up. Because apparently in the video, it's from China. So it's all in Chinese. But apparently he says, you thought I didn't know. And then a fight breaks out. And then there's like people running onto the stage.
Starting point is 01:09:48 And apparently the guy, the groom who played the video, played out the entire five minutes. Oh, would you sit and watch that? I think someone would get up and shut the particular down. Well, they were trying to, but they couldn't turn it off. Oh, that was the fight, right. I got a couple of questions. Yes. Who videoed it a couple of questions. Yes.
Starting point is 01:10:05 Who videoed it? That's a good question. How did he get the video? So the video, I kind of watched a little bit of it. Yeah. They just showed like three seconds of it. You watched the video? Yeah, before anything happens.
Starting point is 01:10:18 Like when they walk into the room. What's the setting? Well, it's a bed. Yeah. And then they kind of stumble into the room and then they're kind of just kissing. How did he play the video? On a projector on the stage. So I wonder if anyone else was in on it
Starting point is 01:10:32 because he would have had to organise the projector and did the person who was organised the projector go, yeah, what sort of video file? Can I see the video file to check that it's going to work first? Yeah, like did anyone test it? I've got a theory on why he might have waited until after they were married and waited until the reception to show it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:49 Maybe her family or she has more money than him. And so at least if you're married, you can take half her money. So you've been cheated on and then you can get something out of it. You can take half her money. Maybe, maybe. I don't know. That could be the reason. I'm trying to think of another reason because otherwise surely you don't want to go through
Starting point is 01:11:04 the hassle of having to get divorced and split your assets. If you know, you know. Just don't go to the wedding. Well, this is what people are saying. They're like, people are saying in China, they're like, this isn't real. It can't be real. So people are now speculating that it's actually a marketing video.
Starting point is 01:11:22 That's what they're saying, but they don't actually know. For Chinese married at first sight. No, they don't know exactly what it's for. I've never heard of the company before. It might be for a lawyer company. Oh, like family law. Yeah, that's what they're saying, but it's appeared on a few different platforms now, and apparently it's been reported that the bride actually had an affair
Starting point is 01:11:46 with the husband of her pregnant sister what so her brother-in-law the one that she's in the video with yeah apparently he had an affair no so apparently he's married to the bride's sister who's pregnant so Oh, okay. I'm just adding an extra layer. Yeah, the real problem with this is that it's all in Chinese as well. So the answer to what we're talking about is probably in the article that you're looking at, but you just can't read it. I have no idea what it says.
