Starting point is 00:00:00 Brie and Clint on ZM. Good in New Zealand. How you doing? Brie and Clint here. Hey Brie, mate. How are you? Good. How are you? Good. Brie has come to work today in a full blazer. Yes, this is the blazer that I haven't been able to wear for a month because I fell down a hill. The last time I was wearing it, it had grass stains all down it. Oh, you've just got it back from the Drake. It's very official. Very business. You look like you run a fashion magazine in the early 1990s.
Starting point is 00:00:29 Oh, I was just about to say, that is a big compliment. And then you hit 1990s. Yeah, you look like a vintage Anna Wintour. Well, at least I didn't come to work with a matching haircut with our producer, Ben. Oh, yeah, we went and got friends' haircuts today. How good does he look, though? This is your dream to see our producer get that haircut. Can we please, producers, if you're listening right now,
Starting point is 00:00:49 put up a before picture of producer Ben and an after picture of producer Ben? If you want to see what he looks like, how good he looks. Are you pimping him out? Yeah, why not? The time you need to know this afternoon is 5pm. That is when you will get the third chance to win ZM's Secret Sound. Soundkeeper Annabelle will be back in studio with her sound. Have you heard it? I've heard the sound. Do you have any idea what it is?
Starting point is 00:01:16 No clue. I have feelings. I have thoughts about it. Oh, see, I know what you're like, though. You're someone who genuinely believes they know it. Oh, see, I know what you're like, though. You're someone who genuinely believes they know it. I'll give, I will share my thoughts, but it's up to you whether you think they're helpful or not. That's the thing. I have no idea, but I'll tell you what I think, and maybe it'll help you.
Starting point is 00:01:36 I really liked the guess with Belle today. That was a briefcase being opened. I thought that was a great guess. If you would like to see all the guesses, which there's only two of them, they're at ZM Online as well as the Q&A. Like all the questions you may have about the new secret sound,
Starting point is 00:01:51 thanks to Save My Bacon, go and check them out before we play at five o'clock. You will hear the activator just after the news at five and then first person through is having a go at guessing the secret sound. I don't know who my... representing in here tonight. Whenever we do it,
Starting point is 00:02:06 I really want us to be the ones who give it away. Me too. Fingers crossed. There are 36 days to go. That's how long Annabelle has to hold on and we'll do it at 5pm. Do you remember last week, Clint? It was like at the top of our,
Starting point is 00:02:21 like four o'clock. We were sometime, I don't know the reason why, but we got into sexy phone voices. Yeah. I think I accidentally opened the show with a voice that you found quite attractive. I think I accidentally.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Oh, right. Settle down. I think I fell into like a groove and you were like, wow, I've never heard this side of you before. Well, I've grabbed the audio. This is what happened. Okay. Hello and welcome to the Bree and Clint show. Hi, you've reached two degrees.
Starting point is 00:02:48 That was nice and approachable way. It just sounds like you. Yeah, I know, right? Do more sexy. Hi. I remember myself being sexier. We didn't hear enough. We didn't hear enough of your sexy voice. And it made me think, what's Clint's sexy voice sound like? I don't know if it's up to broadcast. Broadcast standards. Yeah. Hang on, let me say that in a more sexy way. I don't think New Zealand's
Starting point is 00:03:20 ready for this. Oh, wow. I don't think the women of New Zealand driving around are safe if they hear this in their car. What if they crash? Are you trying? No, I haven't done it yet. Okay, cool. Just checking. That's a sexy persona. Just checking.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Was that sexy though? That voice? Yeah. It's a little bit deeper. I thought this afternoon we could test out our sexy phone voices and to make it even harder for us this afternoon we could test out our sexy phone voices. Yeah. And to make it even harder for us this afternoon, we've each written each other sentences that are completely not sexy. Yeah, okay. I do have some for you.
Starting point is 00:03:55 Which I want you to read out one first. Sure. And I want to hear, because everyone's got it right. Everyone's got a voice that they can put on. Do they? Well, we're about to find out. Okay. And if you're listening in your car,
Starting point is 00:04:09 you're going to get your chance very soon on 0800DALZM because we want to hear yours this afternoon as well. Some people really back their sexy voice. Some people make a career out of it. Some people have really good ones. Maybe you work for one of those hotlines. Okay, this is what you've written for me. All right, so this is a sentence I've written for you
Starting point is 00:04:21 in your sexiest voice. I haven't seen this before. Okay, here we go. And I haven't practised this voice either. Oh, God, this could be bad. Here we go. Listen carefully. And maybe ladies, pull over.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Why are you talking deeper already? Because I'm getting down. I just washed the entire sink of dirty, dirty dishes. I used soap and a scrubbing brush. You sound evil. Oh, okay. Well, you do it then. That wasn't sexy. No, you do it. There you go. You sound evil. Oh, okay. Well, you do it then. I wasn't sexy.
Starting point is 00:04:46 No, you do it. There you go. To give me that one right there. The top one? Yeah, and I want sexy. I want sultry. I want someone who's going to seduce someone using the radio. How am I meant to make this sound sexy?
Starting point is 00:04:58 Well, that's the challenge. If you've got a sexy voice, you can make anything sound sexy. Oh, God. I can't wait to see you tomorrow night. I would have come yesterday, but I've had a terrible case of diarrhea. Just because you whisper it doesn't make it sexier. Kind of. Go on, go on with your second one.
Starting point is 00:05:23 I want to be like, I want to be like... Think... Yeah. Think... I was going to say David Beckham, but that's completely wrong. I'm going to vacuum the entire house slowly in my Ugg boots and dressing gown. I don't know if this says a lot about me, but I found that so attractive. Before we open this up and try and find a true sexy voice,
Starting point is 00:05:48 turn that over and give me the last one. What, my last one wasn't good? No, not good enough. Here, smell my perfume. It's the scent of a woman who hasn't showered since Sunday. 0800 dial ZM. Do you have a sexy voice? I'm sure there's people better than us.

That's our new sexiest voice in New Zealand. Well done. Well done, Hayley. Thank you. Thank you. I'm going to go have a shower. Brie and Clint on ZDM.
Starting point is 00:09:33 Massive news for Kiwis yesterday, Clint, and mainly half the population when Countdown announced a scheme to cut the cost of women's sanitary products in an effort to help fight period poverty. Mega. Mega. Huge. And to be honest, I mean, we've all had this conversation floating about for a long time about how, you know, those products cost too much
Starting point is 00:09:55 for women to pay for every month. Yeah, and I obviously don't know too much about it, but I've never come across the term period poverty. It's a real thing and it's something that affects half the population. Yeah. Because, I mean, there's some families out there that, you know, can't afford these products because they have to feed their kids. Touchy subject and it probably shouldn't be, but for the men listening,
Starting point is 00:10:19 can you give me an idea of what a box of tampons costs? So, I mean, it's really difficult because there's different brands, there's different types, there's, you know, all different types of things. There's the gold-plated ones. But, I mean, it can range from anywhere from $5 for $20 to $10, which you're using those once a month at least, if not two packets of those. A month.
Starting point is 00:10:43 A month. It's a lot if you're on minimum wage especially. You know where it's a lot? If you're like a solo mum. Yes. And it's winter and you've got to feed your family and heat your house. And then imagine if you have daughters. Fill your car up.
Starting point is 00:10:56 Then think about that. Then you've got daughters that you're bringing up. Like we were talking off air. I mean some mothers are going without so that they can feed their kids. I read that too and I find that just the worst bit of news I've ever heard.
Starting point is 00:11:11 That breaks my heart. Yeah. That's horrible. That's terrible anyway. Go we live in a wonderful, blissful ignorance as men? Like, just no idea.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Like, absolutely no idea. I'm sure there's struggles on both sides, but it's interesting. No, not really. It's pretty cruisy over here. Pretty good. It's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:11:29 Sailing pretty good. Yeah. But I was really, really, like I really, really loved reading yesterday that Countdown have come on board and all of its home brand and select tampon brands, which is that's the Countdown brand. That's their own brand, yeah. Yeah, they're dropping some of the products by 40%. 40%?
Starting point is 00:11:49 Some of them, yes. But then, I mean, I've taken a look at some of the different products that they're dropping and some are dropping by $1, some are $1.50. Yeah. But, I mean, it all helps at the end of the day. If you're a struggling family or if you're a struggling student, it all helps.
Starting point is 00:12:03 It's mega. I mean, I wish there was more that we could do. Like I just think that, you know, in today's world, New Zealand is such a leading country in terms of, you know, being the pioneer for doing stuff like this. Yeah, our Prime Minister's got a baby. You know? And it's a female.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Our Prime Minister had a baby and then they chucked some old guy in to cover her while she's on maternity leave. We're crazy over here. We're doing things. I'm loving it in New Zealand, but I wish there was more that you and I could do to help people who are struggling. What could we do though?
Starting point is 00:12:35 Which we talked about it off air. We have reach and frequency. We have the ability to talk to a lot of people. Yes. We don't have cupboards full of tampons that we can give away. No, but if you're listening right now, to talk to a lot of people. Yes. We don't have cupboards full of tampons that we can give away. No, but if you're listening right now, I mean, I'm thinking, you know, if we gather up a tonne of the products, we have the vehicle to distribute it, like, out into the country.
Starting point is 00:12:56 Oh, literally, we have the vehicles. We have the Black Thunders. Yeah, which we could be giving away these products to people who need them. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I would love to do that. It needs the scale of like a countdown or a company who produces them, Oi or Libra or someone like that to go, give you $100,000, you guys find out where they need to go.
Starting point is 00:13:16 Not where they need to go. That was the wrong choice of words. But you know what I'm saying? Who needs them the most? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. I mean, I think it'd be an awesome thing. And if you're listening right now and you have someone or something that might be able
Starting point is 00:13:29 to help us, we'd love to hear from you off the air. Producers, what's our email address? What was that? Our email address? Yeah. Where people can reach us. Brianne Clint at ZMOnline.com. Cool.
Starting point is 00:13:41 I should really know that. Thank you. Yeah. Just in case. Maybe, I don't know if anything's going to come of it, but maybe it will, right? Hope so. It's interesting. It's very interesting.
Starting point is 00:13:49 All right. Bree and Clint on ZDM. Something that's been on the show for the last couple of weeks. I surprised you last week and said that I read this article saying that the perm, the 80s hairstyle is back in fashion or it's coming back in fashion. Yeah. You even made this wonderful opener for it. Mission Perm Possible.
Starting point is 00:14:10 I put it to you, Clinton Roberts, and I said, mate, you should be the pioneer for this show, the country of New Zealand. You should get a perm. Bring it back. Yeah, thank you for that again. You put it out to a group of people who don't care what my hair looks like. Of course they do.
Starting point is 00:14:29 No, they don't. People who listen to this show. No, they don't. They just want to see a man with a perm. We put it out to the people, you guys who listen to the show, the most important people. You voted yes for the perm. And it was huge.
Starting point is 00:14:41 It was like 78%. Yeah. It's happening, okay? It's happening on Monday. Don't worry. The perm is happening. Just calm down. All right, stop asking me about it. It'll be live in the studio. It's going to be great. Anyway, I thought, you know, you're a bit hesitant about it. Yeah, that's an understatement. I wanted to do some recon and just see how much of a pioneer you're going to, you are going to be for the male perm. So before the show, you and I rang a bunch of hairdressers
Starting point is 00:15:05 around New Zealand and we asked the question, how many people are getting a perm and how many were men? Hi, I was just wanting to ask a quick question. Yeah. I wanted to know how many perms you guys had done in the last year. None. Cool. I just wanted to know how many perms you guys had done in the last year?
Starting point is 00:15:29 Do have a few clients that come in every few months or so and get their perms touched up. Cool. And how many of those were male? None that I can think of. I was just wanting to know how many perms have you guys done there in the last year? Would you say any? Yes. Okay, cool. And would you know off the top of your head, were any of those for males? No. Quick question.
Starting point is 00:15:54 I just wanted to know how many perms you guys had done there in the last year or so. Probably not a lot. Maybe five? Cool. And how many of those were done on a male? None. A resounding no men's perms. It wasn't looking good.
Starting point is 00:16:11 And I said that to you, you would be the pioneer. Even that you could hear it in their voice, they were like, why do you want to do it on a man? But then this call happened, Clint, where we called one last hairdresser. Revolver Studio, you're speaking with Jenny. Hi, Jenny. I just wanted to know really quick, how many perms do you think you guys have done there
Starting point is 00:16:32 in the last year? Oh, in the last year? I don't know. Would it be less than five or? More than five. More than five? Yeah, yeah, definitely more than five. Okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:16:45 And how many of those were done on a male? Most of them, I'd say. Really? Yeah. So males have got their hair done in a perm style there in the last year? Yes. Amazing. Cool.
Starting point is 00:17:00 That's really interesting. Thanks so much for your time. What's that for? Just out of interest? I'm trying to convince my mate Clint to get a perm because I think it's coming back into fashion and I want him to be the pioneer here in New Zealand and he doesn't believe me that males get perms.
Starting point is 00:17:17 Gotcha. Would that be Bree and Clint from ZM by any chance? Jesus, has word spread that fast already? It's spread! God damn it. And what's your feelings on it? Should he get the perm or not? Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:17:30 The perm is 100% coming back. No, no, no, no, no, no. Yes, it is, Clint. What was your name again, sorry? My name's Jenny. Jenny. Now, I want you to picture the man who comes in and asks for the perm. You, Jenny, you sound like a wonderful woman.
Starting point is 00:17:42 Are you attracted to that man? Absolutely. Well, actually, I'm a lesbian, woman. Are you attracted to that man? Absolutely. Well, actually, I'm a lesbian, so I'm not attracted to him anyway. But if I was, definitely. Jenny, I mean this in the most respectful way possible. Stick to your own kind. Jenny, a trained professional has said the male perm back in fashion. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:18:01 100% back it. Thanks so much for your time, Jenny. Jenny, thanks for nothing. You should do it. Yes, do it, Clint. Absolutely. 100% back it. Thanks so much for your time, Jenny. Jenny, thanks for nothing. You should do it. Yes, do it, Clint. Bye. Bye, Jenny. All you need to know, the perm for the people, Mission Perm Possible, Clinton Roberts

Oh, there it is, coming in hot. No song in between today because we need to be on time for the Secret Soundbreeze shortly. But we are not skipping Birthday Banger either. No way.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Let's go to Jennifer to kick it off. Hello, Jen. Hi, hi, how are you? Good, thanks. So you're going to give us your birthday. We're going to figure out what song was on your 16th. So what's your birthday? 10th? Good, thanks. So you're going to give us your birthday. We're going to figure out what song was on your 16th. So what's your birthday? 10th of June, 1986.
Starting point is 00:18:48 So you were 16 in 2002 on the 10th of June, and this was Top of the Charts. You've got a great birthday banger. That's a ripper. Absolutely. Yeah, any vintage Eminem for me is a win. That's very good. Without me, Eminem, that's so good to kick it off.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Let's go to Dylan. He's up next. Hello, Dylan. Dylan, are you there? Yes. There we go. Okay, Dylan. Hello, mate.

Starting point is 00:19:38 But not much for a 16 year old boy is it Nah No You can't choose your birthday banger The birthday banger chooses you. Your birthday banger goes great at every single wedding ever, though, so there's always that.
Starting point is 00:19:50 Rest assured on that one. Yeah, cool. One more. We've got one more. We're going to go with Megan. Hello, Megan. Hello. Hello.
Starting point is 00:19:58 What's your birthday, Meg? 28th of Feb, 84. Okay, Megan, you were 16 in the year 2000 on the 28th of Feb, and this was Top of the Charts. Oh. Kind of fitting. Megan. I don't know if we need to deliberate today.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Are we? Absolute one. Megan, do you think in celebration of Clint getting a Justin Timberlake perm, we should play your birthday banger, Bye Bye Bye? It's actually perfect. It is actually perfect. You know what? We're doing it.
Starting point is 00:20:34 New Zealand, one of the greatest birthday bangers yet. Pretty damn good. Here's Bye Bye Bye, in sync, ZM. Bye Bye Bye. Baby, Bye Bye Bye, NSYNC, ZM. ZM. Brie and Clay, the winner of Birthday Banger today for Megan,
Starting point is 00:20:52 that's NSYNC and Bye Bye Bye. That is the right song to play for that feature. Brie and Clay on ZM. You know Serena Williams, Brie? I love Serena Williams. You do love Serena Williams, eh? She's amazing.
Starting point is 00:21:09 What's your opinion on her husband? Ooh. I mean, good for them. They've had a baby. She just had a baby with him. Mm, correct. I don't know much about him, though. Oh, let me tell you.
Starting point is 00:21:18 Oh. His name is Alexis Ohanian. Sounds hot. He's the co-founder and chief executive of Reddit. So he rich. Holy. He mega rich. He'd be mega, mega rich.
Starting point is 00:21:32 Well, she mega rich too. Their wedding cost a million dollars. Okay. Well, are you disappointed by that? Well, considering like my sister's wedding cost a fair bit. Did it cost a million dollars? I mean, we had it in the backyard. I was going to say.
Starting point is 00:21:46 Yeah. All right. Not the same. That's a good warning sign if you're looking to marry Bree. She expects a very expensive wedding. Anyway, I want to give you an example of what happened. This is a story that's come out about them from over the weekend, okay? The story goes that Serena Williams said to her husband,
Starting point is 00:22:02 I feel like Italian food. Great. So he got his private jet. Oh, no, I can see where this is going. And flew her to Italy for dinner. What is, what? They flew to Venice. From where?
Starting point is 00:22:18 To Venice, to be specific. Their home in America. They flew to Venice for dinner. Oh my God. That is amazing. Isn't it amazing? It's an example of a very over the top date and it's a very romantic grand gesture.
Starting point is 00:22:34 But do you know how some people do that? They go, I'm going to really blow this person away with something so over the top. What if she didn't want to go to Italy? What if she had something on tomorrow? I think she was fine with it. Yeah, I'm sure. Well, maybe she was.
Starting point is 00:22:46 But, you know, imagine if you're dating a person like that and every date is just so extra. Like you go, man, I feel like a Big Mac. Yeah, it's like being on The Bachelor. And then, yeah, next minute you're on a plane to the first McDonald's store ever opened. You're like, I've got work on tomorrow. You know, like on The Bachelor,
Starting point is 00:23:00 like every date is so over the top and it's not realistic. It's not realistic. It's not realistic. It's not realistic. Have you ever been on like an OTT date? Like maybe, because some husbands do it as a grand gesture kind of thing. That's fine. But like an early on. Yeah, see, it's different when it's really early on, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:23:16 Yeah, like an over the top first impression date. If you've been with them for a couple of years, adorable. I went on this date once. I didn't plan it. It was all planned. I think it might have been the second or the third date or the second or the third time we'd hung out. Still very early. And they'd
Starting point is 00:23:31 organised horse riding on the beach with a picnic at the end with champagne. Do you like horses? I'm allergic. So it goes to show how early on it was If you're trying to do a grand gesture And drop it in quietly You can't go
Starting point is 00:23:54 Hey what's your opinion on champagne horses and beaches? Just out of the blue You're going to blow the whole shtick So you have to go with the hope that they're going to enjoy it To be honest This sounds so ungrateful, but it turned me off a little bit. Why?
Starting point is 00:24:09 Because I'd rather just hang out and go to a movie. Yeah. Well, you don't really talk to the person, but I'd rather just hang out and maybe cook dinner at home. So I'm guessing the relationship didn't last. No. No. No.
Starting point is 00:24:20 Okay. I wonder if we can take some calls this afternoon on over-the-top dates. Maybe you liked it. Maybe that's fine. But was it early in the relationship and you show up and he pulls up in a stretched hummerzine with a rose in his mouth and he goes, we're off to Phantom of the Opera, darling. And you thought you guys were just going to Wagamama or something like that. Oh, I love Wagamama.
Starting point is 00:24:40 Yeah, great date. Sorry, I'm getting sidetracked. 0800 dial ZM or text us to 9696. O-T-T dates. Yeah, we want your over-the-top dates this evening. Brie and Clit on ZDM. Talking about over-the-top dates this evening after Serena Williams said to her husband,
Starting point is 00:24:56 I feel like Italian, so he flew her to Italy for dinner. Romantic, sure, but very over-the-top. Also, your carbon footprint is so much smaller if you just get takeaways. Yeah, but they've got so much money that they need to figure out what to do with it. Yeah, they have to do that. They've been wiping their bums with it. That happened just over the weekend. They both posted about it on their Instagram.
Starting point is 00:25:15 Amazing. And I mean, on a lesser scale, has it happened to you before, Clint? I, in my former days of being a romancer, not that I don't believe it now. You just called being a romancer Not that I don't believe it now You called yourself a romancer? No, you bear with me I was trying What did you do? I was seeing this girl and it was very early
Starting point is 00:25:36 So I thought Oh no, you went too far I organised a surprise picnic In a park And I got some fireworks. Oh my God. We had this picnic, which I think was like a thing of pesto and some rice crackers.
Starting point is 00:25:53 And then I was like, okay, time for the fireworks. I let the firework, one of them fell over and shot at us. So no shit. That didn't happen. No,
Starting point is 00:26:04 it did happen. The two of us had to get underneath the picnic blanket and wait until the thing ran out of fireworks. Oh my God. But I thought it would be special. I thought it would be this grand moment. That's one word to describe it. We'd sit there and we'd look over our hummus and crackers.
Starting point is 00:26:22 And obviously fireworks were flying. What about between you guys? The chemistry? Were fireworks flying? Believe it or not, it went on a little bit longer. Yeah, she wasn't deterred by that. Oh, she didn't cop one in the face, did she? Romaine.
Starting point is 00:26:35 No, I'm not going to make that joke. All right, all right, settle down. 0800DIALZM, what's the OTT date that you went on? Ben, hello, welcome to the show. Hello, Ben. Hey, sorry, I went on this one date with a guy that I'd just met. His father was the owner of a very, very expensive
Starting point is 00:26:56 worldwide company. Yes, so you're being very careful with the description here. So he was very, very, very rich is what you're saying very careful with the description here. So he was very, very, very rich is what you're saying, Ben? Very, very. Like, had one of three BMWs in the country that run off pure aviation fuel. Gotcha, gotcha. Whoa. He's Nick Lev. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:17 What was the date about? And then, so that was cool. I thought not much more of it. Like, nice guy and all. And then he takes me out after two weeks of meeting him, like the first date, and took me out to some posh, fancy French-type restaurant in Newmarket. And I got told to dress up all nice and everything, so I did.
Starting point is 00:27:45 And got given a plate full of food that was no bigger than my palm, and it cost about $240. Oh! And that's when you realise we're from different worlds. And my date, I'll be taking you to Burger King. Everyone that eats at that restaurant talks like this. Get me my monocle. Bailey, your friend had a very first, very over-the-top first date, right?
Starting point is 00:28:15 Yeah, so it was also like a Tinder nightmare as well. Oh, no. What happened, Bailey? So they met on Tinder and during that time, he was sent over to Singapore for work and it ended up being a long-term thing. He didn't want to wait a few months to see her. So flew her over to Singapore for the week and had a champagne dinner and everything over the top on the first night.
Starting point is 00:28:38 And then, yeah, by the second day he realised he really didn't like her and she had to spend the rest of the week in the spare room. No way. Yeah. Second day, he realised he really didn't like her and she had to spend the rest of the week in the spare room. No way. Yeah. Why didn't he just book her an earlier flight home? Well, I don't know. It might have made it a bit awkward for her.
Starting point is 00:28:55 Oh, because it wasn't awkward staying in the spare room? Jeepers. Okay, one more. That's horrible. Annika, OTT date. What happened? Hi. So I met a guy on Tinder.
Starting point is 00:29:06 I barely knew him. He was from Australia. I lived there in New Zealand. He flew home. Then he bought me tickets as a surprise over to Brisbane and I went and spent the week with him over in Brisbane and we went down to the Gold Coast and had an amazing time. It was my first time on a plane as well
Starting point is 00:29:21 so it was huge. It was really special. And you've met him how many times? I've met him once. I spent less than a day with him, and he flew home. And then he wanted to see me again, so he bought me tickets. You sound like it went well, like that wasn't too much, because that's the other bit. It was amazing.
Starting point is 00:29:41 And you weren't put off. We were in touch. And did it last? Are you guys getting married? We're not getting married. We're still talking. I'm hoping I get to go back and see him again soon. Oh, because I was going to say, if you're not still talking,
Starting point is 00:29:53 can you flick that number through to me? Brie and Clint on ZDM. This time every week, Clint, we like to educate some of the males around New Zealand about some of the things us ladies go through. Yeah, you've got to get us woke about what's happening to you guys. You know when you're putting on your mascara and you sneeze and it goes all up your face? No, I don't.
Starting point is 00:30:12 Well, I'm about to tell you about some of those because I've written down some hashtag girl problems and we've been getting some of the guys around the office here to voice them so that guys can relate more because they're hearing it from a male perspective. Yeah, we're very dumb so you need to make it. voice them so that guys can relate more because they're hearing it from a male perspective. Yeah, we're very dumb, so you need to make it and you need to... We're not saying that. I'm not saying that. I'm just saying you might not have heard these before.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Sure. Who have we got doing it today? We've got the security guard who he stepped up last week and he did one of them. He was a big hit. He was a massive hit. So is he going to do the whole thing? He's going to do the whole thing for us this afternoon. Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Here it is, Clint. Hashtag girl problem. Today I saved the same leg twice and now I'm too lazy to save the other one. Hashtag girl problems. Men cannot understand the real struggle until they've worn a strapless bra. Hashtag girl problems. When your day is long. Just cut my ankle shaving.
Starting point is 00:31:13 We've got a bleeder. Hashtag girl problems. That awesome moment when Facebook keeps auto-tagging my boobs as people. Hashtag girl problems. Facebook literally kept tagging my left boob as my sister. I mean, we are related. More awkward if it was your dad By the way I love the security guard
Starting point is 00:31:50 He's great isn't he He's so good So good I have news regarding Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge Is it Cambridge? I don't know
Starting point is 00:32:01 Meghan Markle I thought you were talking about Lizzie No I'm talking about Meghan Markle. The new princess. She's a princess now. The Duchess of... Well, formerly of Suits, obviously. There's new Suits out, by the way.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Is there? Yeah. She won't be on it. No, have they replaced her with? Who? Katherine Heigl. Oh, yeah. Why Katherine Heigl got to come in and ruin every show I love?
Starting point is 00:32:26 You leave Catherine Heigl alone. I'm interested to see Suits too. Does it jump the shark when Mike went to prison? I don't know. I'm addicted. Harvey Specter is too good looking and I'm in love with Donna. We're not meant to be talking about Suits. We're meant to be talking about Meghan Markle.
Starting point is 00:32:41 There's a new beauty trend on the rise that they believe is happening because of her and her appearance. Oh, it's not the healed croc, is it?
Starting point is 00:32:52 I saw those were on trend last week. No, is there a royal healed croc? There could be. Got diamonds. No,
Starting point is 00:32:59 the beauty trend being led by Meghan Markle is freckle tattoos. I was literally going to say, is it a monobrow? She doesn't have a monobrow. No, but she might have been bringing it back in. No.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Freckle tattoos. I've seen these. Because she goes for the natural look and doesn't conceal her natural skin, you can see her freckles. Right. So apparently women around the world are beginning to emulate the Duchess's features by having freckles tattooed onto their face. What, like permanently? Permanently.
Starting point is 00:33:36 So it's a 45-minute procedure, if you want the smattering that Megan has. It's called freckling, and each freckle is hand poked into your face using a needle instead of a tattoo gun. What have I been doing for the last 10 years covering mine up? Have you got them? Yeah. Oh mate, they're on trend. I've got them all over my face. Yeah. What about
Starting point is 00:33:58 on your bum? Are they on trend? You could finally be cool. Because I've got them there too. It's a mole on your bum, isn't it? Yeah, better get that checked actually. The tattooing apparently lasts for three years. What's your take on it? Because I mean, there too. It's a mole on your bum, isn't it? Yeah, better get that checked, actually. No, the tattooing apparently lasts for three years. What's your take on it? Because, I mean, it's happening. Oh, it lasts for three years, did you say?
Starting point is 00:34:11 Yeah. Three years, though. Because as a man, I find lots of the things that you guys are into weird. So I don't want to... I like how you talk about us like we're a foreign thing. Oh, you very much are. I don't want to cast aspersions if you're all into it, you know. But tattoo, freckle tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo, tattoo.
Starting point is 00:34:32 Tattooing freckles. You're not into it? No, I'm asking if you're into it. I mean, I think whatever makes you happy. Cop out. Go for it. I mean, it's gonna hurt though. It's on your face. It's a facial tattoo. Technically
Starting point is 00:34:49 it's a face tattoo. It's a face tattoo. I mean, you could be as cool as Post Malone. Oh, yeah. Not the same, is it? Well, it's one step off, isn't it? Brie and Clint, we're gonna call someone and tell them they're going to a very exclusive five sauce show next.
Starting point is 00:35:07 What have you done? My button has just come off my expensive... No! Not! You've ripped your new jacket. How am I going to get my button back on? You take a minute, mate. How am I going to do that?
Starting point is 00:35:20 Maybe we could tattoo it on. Back in the day, Clint, were you a fan of the Brady Bunch? Um, yeah. Yeah, I was. It was one of those shows mum was like, you're gonna love this show. It's great. You know, one that always got replayed on a Sunday, that sort of thing. And I didn't mind the reboot movie. Who was your favourite?
Starting point is 00:35:37 Marsha. Yeah, of course she was. She was so hot. Remember the theme? Oh, yeah. Oh, the theme was great. This is the original theme, I think, from the theme was great. This is the original theme I think from the 70s one. Here's a story of a lovely lady who was bringing
Starting point is 00:35:52 up three very lovely girls all of them had hair of gold like their mother. Yeah we know the list right? It was way ahead of its time. It was kind of the original modern family in that, if you don't know what it was it was a hybrid family. It was kind of the original modern family in that, if you don't know what it was, it was a hybrid family.
Starting point is 00:36:07 So a divorced woman with three daughters and a man whose wife had died? I think so. I think so. Who had three sons. And they got together. So they remarried and they blended their families. And then it was like this awkward thing where the two oldest kids, like the oldest boy and the oldest girl kind of had a crush on each other.
Starting point is 00:36:25 Sexual chemistry. That was really weird, eh? Yeah, strange. And then the younger sister had like real bad issues with the older sister. That's right. And they had a maid. Who has a maid? I loved the maid, Alice.
Starting point is 00:36:36 Everyone loved the maid, but what have you got a maid for? Yeah, true. They were rich. And you know why they were rich? Because the dad was an architect. Do you remember the house that they lived in? Yeah, yeah. We're really showing our age here.
Starting point is 00:36:49 I hope you know the Brady Bunch. Beautiful mid-century style house. Yeah, it was a huge house, two storey. Incredible staircase. Yeah, massive. That actual house where all the scenes on the outside were filmed is now up for sale. Oh, right.
Starting point is 00:37:03 For the first time in 50 years. The interior must have been a TV set, right? Yeah, so everything inside was filmed on set. Because I always get really disappointed. There's the outrageous Fortune house out by where I live and apparently none of the inside looks like the TV show. It's just the outside. It was all filmed in a TV studio.
Starting point is 00:37:21 But all the outside shots were filmed at this house that's actually in California and it's come on the market for the first time in 50 years. And guess how much you will need if you want to buy it. For the Brady Bunch house. The Brady Bunch house. It is literally the second most photographed house in the US. Do you know what the first is?
Starting point is 00:37:43 Yes. Can I guess? Yeah, have a guess. Fresh Prince House. No. No? It's the White House. Oh, that's not a real house.
Starting point is 00:37:52 Yeah, it is. No, it's not a real house. And then Elvis's Mansion. Oh, yeah. Yeah, which I mean, I... Do you know what's fourth? No. Where's the Fresh Prince House?
Starting point is 00:38:04 It's not on there. Oh, no, no. Can I say what's fourth? No. Where's the Fresh Prince house? It's not on there. Oh, no, no. Can I say what fourth is? What? It'll be San Francisco. You know, the Olsen twins. Full house. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:15 Oh, yeah, I love that house. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Anyway, how much for the Brady Bones house? It's now on sale for US $1.88 million, which is New Zealand $2.77 million. It's a bargain. Yeah, well, if you live in Auckland.
Starting point is 00:38:29 I was going to say. You watch Iron Man? I've seen the first one. When you see it, does it get you excited and go, I want to do that? Kind of. Yeah, right? It makes me think that I'd love to have one of those suits.
Starting point is 00:38:43 Well, well. No, you can't buy it. Now you can. No. There is a suit, a jet suit, very similar to the Iron Man one that is now for sale and it's in a department store in the UK, Selfridges, fancy department store. You can now buy a jet suit. What?
Starting point is 00:39:04 It does everything that the Iron Man suit does? No. No, it doesn't have rockets in it. It doesn't make you bulletproof, but you can fly like Iron Man. So it does one of the things. Oh, man. Take a gun with you. What?
Starting point is 00:39:16 Can you actually fly? Yes, you can fly it. Listen to this. What? And I think this is what I would like to do because listen to the description of it. It can reach speeds of 32 miles an hour and an altitude of 12,000 feet. Anyone can fly it with training and insurance.
Starting point is 00:39:32 It's made up of five mini jet engines, one on the back and two on each arm, which control direction. In a strange way, a bit like riding a bike. It's like riding a bike. 12,000 feet in the air and anyone can do it. You know who I am? Anyone. Are you going to get one?
Starting point is 00:39:49 How much is it? A lot. Well, it's $662,000 New Zealand. But, you know what it'd be great for? What? Finally get to use that GoPro of mine. Brie and Clint on ZDM. Spy.co.nz Obviously the huge What? Finally get to use that GoPro of mine.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Obviously the huge, biggest news in entertainment today is the Demi Lovato story. The overdose, the trip to hospital and all the conflicting stories that have come out since then. So this afternoon on the show, we have Hollywood correspondent Dean McCarthy, who is in Hollywood, lives in Hollywood, to get the real story. Dean, hello. Hello, mate. Hi, guys. How are we?
Starting point is 00:40:29 We're going good. Can you make heads or tails of this? What is actually going on with Demi Lovato? Yeah, that is, you know what, that is a million dollar question. Look, let's start from the top. This morning, paramedics were called to her home at 20 past 11 a.m. where she was unconscious from an apparent drug overdose. Now, when the first responders got there, it appeared to some of them that she was having a heroin overdose.
Starting point is 00:40:54 So that's where the heroin story came from. It looks like to them that she was overdosing from heroin. There was no heroin found. In fact, there were no drugs found at all. There will be no criminal investigation into this at all. She was taken to hospital. She was revived. Right now, as we speak, she's in hospital.
Starting point is 00:41:11 She's at the Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Beverly Hills with her family. She's recovering. They've released a statement. Their statement is they're not happy about how this is being reported because of the conflicting stories. In fact, they even said that there are untrue and incorrect reports by the press being circulating right now. We just want to focus on her health. And that is kind of the main concern right now. Here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:41:38 She never revealed at the time when she became conscious, she did not share what she'd taken. They asked her and she wouldn't say. And still, she hasn't said publicly what it was that she's taken. Now, if you know much about Demi Lovato, you'll know that for the last six years she's been sober, but before that she really has struggled with intense addiction to alcohol, cocaine. She was in a treatment facility. She lived in a sober living home for a year in 2011. She once did an interview about being sober while on cocaine.
Starting point is 00:42:05 Wow. Dean. It's a real serious struggle for her. It's an absolutely horrible story. And obviously, like, she has struggled for a long time with addiction. What's your experience been like? You've lived in Hollywood for a long time. Have you met her?
Starting point is 00:42:18 Have you seen her kind of, you know, in a frail state? You know, that is an excellent question. I've never met her. but one of my very dear friends worked with her recently and he said to me, this was a couple of months ago, that she'd been acting very erratic. So when this happened today, I actually wasn't overly surprised. In fact, not only was he commenting on her erratic behaviour, but in April she actually cancelled a big leg of her tour,
Starting point is 00:42:43 which is very unusual for an artist because that's where they make their money. She cancelled that. And then, of course, her song came out, Sober, in June, where she confesses that she's kind of gone off the wagon again. But the big thing is she is a child actor in Hollywood. She's been in Hollywood since she was 10 years old. And it is very, very common for this type of thing to happen. Very, very, very common because they are surrounded in an unusual and unreal life. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:11 And this is kind of where it goes. It happens a lot more often than not. Yeah. It's Britney. It's Macaulay Culkin. It's everything, right? It's totally horrible. And I mean, I just thoughts and prayers are with Demi and her family right now.
Starting point is 00:43:23 Thank you so much for giving us the full story, Dean. We appreciate it. Dean McCarthy, Hollywood correspondent. Brie and Clint on ZDM.
