Hello everybody, welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast.
Just before we start, we've talked a little bit about NRL on the show in the last week or so.
Yeah, footy chat.
A bit of footy chat between you and me. We both enjoy the NRL.
Of course, we're big Warriors fans on this show. Up the woe woes. Love the Warriors.
We're day one fans.
Yeah, day one, yep.
Day one of the new competition of this round. This year. Yeah, day one of yep. Day one of the new competition of this round. This year.
Day one of the restart of
this year. Day ones.
But of course, you've got another team.
You've got your other favourite team, the Broncos.
Brisbane Broncos. That's who I grew
up watching. Yeah, iconic team.
They are. They're like
one of the only teams from Queensland.
Yeah, yeah.
Of course, and
obviously there's a lot of symbolism
because this week you chickened out of doing a Bronco.
Your beloved team chickened out of doing the Broncos.
I wouldn't say chickened out.
I would say I masterfully created a plan
in order to get myself out of doing something
I never really wanted to do in the first place
but was being forced to do by a fellow friend.
Okay, that's another way to look at it too.
I just had a question for you.
Do you think by not doing the Bronco,
you, one of the Broncos' biggest fans,
have potentially cursed the Broncos?
Just on a score from last night's game.
Is that another score where they've got pants?
Yeah, it's 59-0.
It's a record loss for them
And I just
I don't want to draw the parallel
I just wanted to know from you
No because they'd already lost that bad the week before
True
So couldn't have been
Nothing to do with you there
Couldn't have been
Alright let's do an international birthday banger
This is where if you can't listen to the show live My birthday. Bree and Clint's birthday banger. The podcast. Help!
This is where if you can't listen to the show live, you can submit your birthday on our private Bree and Clint Facebook page.
And we will do it on a Friday podcast intro.
Yeah, it's called the Bree and Clint Podcast Family, the name of that page.
Who's up first, Bree?
Craig Whiteman from Jersey, the Channel Islands.
Sounds fancy. I've not ever Jersey, the Channel Islands. Sounds fancy.
I've not ever heard of the Channel Islands.
No, neither, but would love to see it.
Hold on. Producer Ben's googling it for us. Channel Islands. Channel Islands
are an archipelago.
Where is that?
Can you go back a screen
please, Ben? Near
Guernsey. This doesn't help. Neither Bree or I know
how to work a map. Oh, it's near Wales. The Channel Islands are
an archipelago in the English Channel. The French coast of Normandy.
Oh, there you go. They're in the English Channel. Yeah, right. Oh, lovely. Well, that's awesome.
Craig, welcome along. You were born on the 4th of April
1980, which means you were 16 in 1996. And on the
4th of April, this was number one.
I'm a fire starter, twisted fire starter.
Oh, yeah.
The prodigy.
This is a great song.
Twisted fire starter.
What was their other massive hit that they had?
Smack my...
Smack my bitch up.
It was a podcast intro.
Oh, true.
Smack my bitch up.
And I loved how their song always got used on the Charlie's Angels movies.
Oh, they're great in a fight scene when the girls do a slow-mo roundhouse kick.
Yeah, it's awesome.
It's good.
Very good one, Craig, for you.
Let's do another one for Kelly Campbell.
She's from the North Shore in Auckland.
Oh, I'd love to go someday.
Yeah, I'd love to go to the North Shore.
Welcome, Kelly.
You were born on the 21st of October, 1989,
which means you were 16 in 2005 on the 21st of October.
And, Kelly, this is your birthday banger.
Adam.
Ri-ri.
It's a good birthday banger.
God, this was a moment in time.
Yeah.
Huge.
Even Rihanna doesn't look cool back then.
It's amazing how uncool the 2005s were.
You go back to your own Facebook memories and that.
There's no one who goes, man, I was nailing fashion in 2005.
Because no one was. But don't worry, because neither was Rihanna. Speaking of fashion
and Rihanna, has anyone watched the full doco on her fashion
show? No. Oh my god, do yourself a favour.
And that's, you know, that was the reason why Victoria's Secret didn't do their show.
Because of the Fenty show? Is it Fenty? Is it the makeup brand or is it her clothing label?
I think she's got a few.
But, I mean, I don't know all the exact details.
But I heard, and correct me if I'm wrong, but this is what my flatmates told me.
So, Victoria's Secret had been copping quite a lot of flack for the lack of diversity.
Body-wise?
And just in general.
Oh.
Across their kind of fashion label and shows and whatever.
And if you watch Rihanna's fashion show, it is so inclusive, so diversive and just amazing.
Yeah, right.
Do yourself a favour and watch it.
It's incredible.
Okay, cool.
That sounds interesting.
Let's do one more for...
Is her name Christy?
I think it's Christ.
Christy.
Christ or Christy?
Christy Kojoski.
Oh, that's a cool name.
Yeah, right.
From Wollongong.
Oh, Wollongong.
Woolers.
That's kind of near Sydney.
She was born on the 27th of September 1990, which means she was 16 in 2006.
And Christy, this is your birthday bag.
I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair. 77 and 69, revolution. Sandy. This is your birthday bag Sandy
Sandy Tom
This would go off in Wollongong wouldn't it
Yeah gongers they love it
Yeah they're all bad at it gongers
I want to vote for the prodigy
Yeah just because I haven't heard it
Yeah right I want to vote for The Prodigy. Yeah, just because I haven't heard it.
Yeah, right. I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my...
Who would cut the clip off there?
What?
Who did cut?
Who would cut the clip off there?
That's rude.
Was that you, Producer Ben?
That was you.
Now you hang your head in shame.
We'll play a bit of this until the machine
cuts us off.
This is the winner
of Birthday Banger
from Craig Whiteman
from Jersey
and the Channel Islands.
It's the Prodigy
and Firestarter. All right, you know the song.
You can Spotify the rest if you like.
Hey, Google, what's the time?
It's 3pm, give or take a minute.
Alexa, play ZM on iHeartRadio.
Playing ZM on iHeartRadio. Playing ZM on iHeartRadio.
Hey Siri, when are Brie and Clint on?
Brie and Clint are on air in five, four, three, two, one.
Good afternoon, everybody, and welcome to the show, Brie and Clint.
Felt like that was a different kind of intro from you.
Yeah, no, I'm all a fluster.
Why are you a fluster?
Because I just got a phone call
from the people who are repairing my computer.
Doesn't look good.
No, you can, you know.
What's the prognosis?
I don't know what the prognosis is.
Call them back.
Let's call them back on air.
I feel like my dog's at the vet
and I've just had some bad news.
I don't have a dog.
But the guy goes,
hi Clint, is now a good time
to talk about your laptop?
Well, now I want to know.
Can we call him now?
Well, he's sending me an email.
I'll run you through the, he's sending me an email. I'll run you through the...
He's sending me some bullet points.
I said, I've only got a couple of minutes
before we go live on the radio.
He goes, we're going to need longer than that.
I told you not to use your good laptop
for those certain websites.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
It has physical issues, okay?
There's a problem with the fan and the screen.
Yeah, I know. Why?
Yeah, no. Excuse me.
Anyway, we're all good.
It's just a computer, mate. Who cares? Not a big deal. It's not like I use it every single day or anything. Yeah, I know. Why? Yeah, no. Excuse me. Anyway, we're all good. It's just a computer, mate.
Who cares?
Not a big deal.
It's not like I use it
every single day or anything.
Yeah.
Today on the show,
along with Friday Oki
and the One Second Song Challenge,
we are drawing
the final Daddy Bloomfield
extravaganza,
Bonanza,
a $500 domestic travel voucher.
Oh, yes, please.
That's $500 to spend
in your own backyard.
Where would you go?
God, there's so many places
I'd love to go.
I do love to go to Wanaka
or Queenstown
this time of the year.
Yeah, absolutely.
So I'd love to go.
I'd head down there, I think.
Yeah.
Where would you go?
I'd go home to Rotorua.
Because I get free accommodation
at mum's place
and then I can spend
the $500 at the Pig & Whistle.
I do love the Pig and Whistle
there. Yeah, right?
Completely up to you where you spend it.
We just need your texts before 4 o'clock.
If you haven't texted today,
then you need to get in with Daddy
D-A-D-D-Y to 9696.
Thanks to Save My Bacon and we
can get you that prize at 4 o'clock if you're the winner.
Up next, picture
this. The Queen is coming to New Zealand and we need to feed her.
Yeah.
We need to put a spread on that's quintessentially Kiwi.
What are we laying out?
Yeah.
What's our national dish?
Or dishes.
Or dishes.
What are we serving up?
Or schnark.
Or drink.
What's our national drink?
Yeah, what's the LMP?
We're going to figure that out together after this.
This is 660.
And please don't go on ZM.
Bree and Clint.
Bree and Clint.
Think about this for a second.
Say the Queen is coming to New Zealand,
the long white cloud.
She's visiting.
After all, this is, you know, finished.
When we open the borders.
We open the borders.
Does she have to quarantine for two weeks?
Yeah, Lizzie does.
Yeah, all right.
We'll put her up somewhere nice.
We'll see.
We'll get her the nicest Airbnb we can find.
Yeah.
Real fancy.
Yeah.
But say we had to feed her and obviously we want to impress her,
you know, with something quintessentially Kiwi.
Yeah.
What are you serving up?
Yeah, right.
I see what you're asking.
Because I said to you off air, I was like, I always seem to, in Australia where I'm from
is the same.
Like you think about Italy and you know, pizza, pasta, you know, all the things that are-
Italian.
Italian.
Yeah.
You think of Mexican food and you know, tacos, burritos, everything that's Mexican.
Beans.
Yep.
You know, that stuff that just fits straight in there.
And then you think of New Zealand and you're like,
wait, what is it for New Zealand?
Because we've got lots of stuff we like,
but what is it that's specifically ours?
Yeah, exactly.
So I go straight away to hangi.
But then not every New Zealander knows how to put down a hangi.
Like, are we going to dig a hangi everywhere that the Queen goes?
Hopefully.
Yum.
Delicious.
There are some people who do hangi pies. Really? So you put hangi food inside a pie. Yeah, yum, delicious. There are some people who do hungy pies.
Really? So you put hungy food
inside a pie. Yeah, yum. I think that's
pretty Kiwi, because pies, pretty Kiwi,
but then I think they're actually
British, so. Yeah, I think they are
British, because we claim them as ours
in Australia too. Yeah, do you do the same with fish
and chips? Because we're like, that's ours. We love
fish and chips back home too. I know, and we're like,
that's ours, we invented fish and chips. And then again, British people are like, hello. No, that's ours. We love fish and chips back home too. I know and we're like, that's ours. We invented fish and chips. And then again
British people are like, hello.
No, that's us. We made that.
I mean, when I think, because I mean
I've been here for three years now-ish,
give or take.
When I think of New Zealand, I think
of whitebait. That's what I think of.
Oh yeah. Whitebait fritters.
I think that's really Kiwi.
Not everybody can eat that.
Why?
Because of the eyes.
Some people are too terrified of the idea of eating
because you're literally eating the whole fish.
It's not for me.
And it's all the tiny little eyes in the fritter.
I love a white bait fritter.
Actually, I don't think I've tasted it,
but I would give it a go because people rave about it.
White bait fritter on a piece of white bread with butter and some lemon.
That to me is Kiwi.
Yeah.
And you're on.
Yeah. And so're on, yeah.
And so someone obviously looking in,
I also think a Fijoa is super Kiwi.
Because I'd never even heard of that and then everyone here goes nuts for it.
We talked about Fijoas yesterday,
the world's most expensive Fijoa that we found.
And I was like, maybe it is a New Zealand fruit.
I think it's from Brazil.
But at the same time.
But it's also very prominent here, isn't it?
Yeah, yeah. And then I also
used to, I thought back to when
I used to work with some really nice Kiwi
girls back home in Aussie.
And they used to go
on and on about this particular
seafood that they used to only
be able to get from one fish and chip
shop in Brisbane. Okay.
And I was trying to remember what it was called and they would just go nuts for it.
I think, is it a sea urchin?
Yeah, parlor or kinner.
One of those.
One of those, yeah.
One of those.
Parlor, I think, is often called abalone.
What does that look like?
It's black when you fry it up.
I think that's what it was.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And they used to go ballistic for it.
Oh, we've got our own food.
Yeah, we're good.
We've got lots of stuff. Yeah. we're good. We've got lots of stuff.
Yeah.
But what else is it?
Like if it's not the traditional, traditional stuff,
like for you, what is classic Kiwi cuisine?
When you eat it, you go, this is home.
This is me, I'm home.
And it doesn't have to be like intrinsically New Zealand.
I reckon it could be as simple as a pie sandwich,
which for those who don't know,
is a pie between two bits of white bread with sauce.
And if you're really fancy, pre-processed cheese slice put in there too.
Oh, fancy.
Pie sandwich.
Do you guys have hot chip sandwiches here?
Is that butter with just hot chips in there?
Oh, my God.
It's so good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's so good.
Yeah, we've got that.
Yeah, cool.
Sweet.
Just checking.
Anyway, we want to hear from you guys.
0800 dial ZM.
What is the food, when you think about, it just screams New Zealand to you?
I like the queen analogy.
Yeah, what are you feeding, what are you serving?
Lizzie is coming round.
She wants dinner and she wants a taste of New Zealand.
And maybe a certain type of drink.
Oh yeah, okay, and what are you giving her to drink?
Yeah.
Definitely a Lion Red Big Bot. Yeah, serve it up to Lizzie. And you are you giving her to drink? Yeah. Definitely a lion red big bot.
Yeah, serve it up to Lizzie.
And you open the top of it with a spatula.
Let's get the menu together.
Brie and Clint.
I love a chat about food.
And we're trying to get to the bottom of,
if the Queen came over here to New Zealand,
what would be the quintessential Kiwi food meal that we'd serve her?
Yeah, what's your slap-up Kiwi dish you're going to serve the Queen of England?
What's on the table?
What are the drinks?
Yeah.
You know, what are you serving up?
Yeah, what does the menu look like?
Let's go wide and talk to John.
Hi, John.
Hi, John.
Hi, how you going?
Good, mate.
How are you?
Yeah, not bad.
Yeah, piss-poor affair.
Get in there.
Yeah, good.
Now, you're obviously a devout monarchist, and you're keen to put your best foot forward.
It might be your last visit here, Queen Elizabeth.
That's a bit grim.
That's a bit grim, eh?
We don't know what could happen.
Who knew she'd make it this far?
What are you serving to her?
I'm going to give her a nice New Zealand kiwi roast.
Oh, wow.
Okay, what's in the roast, John?
Followed by, oh, roasted pumpkins, spuds, you name it.
Yeah, roast what though?
What are you roasting?
Oh,
what have we got for one before the eggs?
Meat.
I think beef.
Beef?
You're going to roast beef?
Yep.
Okay, and followed by,
I feel like this is
a multi-course meal.
Followed by some abuse.
No.
Followed by
a beautiful pavlova.
Jesus Christ, John. Oh, I settled down, for goodness sake.lova. Jesus Christ, John.
I settled down, for goodness sake.
Oh, you settled down, John.
And this is lucky she can have a sandwich of chippies
or have some whitebait if I'm in season.
I think she's full, John.
You enjoy those Friday drinks.
Also, who has whitebait after pavlova, John?
Oh, I don't know.
Get your menu in order, John.
Have a good weekend, mate.
Thank you for calling.
Enjoy those Friday drinks.
They've obviously started early.
Natalia, hi.
Hi, Natalia.
What are you serving up to the Queen that's like real kiwi?
It has to be a marmite and chip sandwich
on white bread.
Yes!
Delish!
Washed down with
a nice chilled
Raro sweet
and level orange cordial.
Oh damn,
from one of those
plastic Tupperware jugs?
Yeah, mate.
Yeah, right.
And it has that weird
plasticky taste
when it comes out too.
That's the secret ingredient
to making a good Raro.
It's got to be out of
an old Tupperware jug. I've never
had this raro. Yeah, did you know Bree's
never had raro, Natalia? Are you
serious? We used to eat it as a kid.
Yeah, I've heard, Natalia.
That's called mainlining. You put
it in your pocket and the kids used to just
eat it out of the pocket. We used to do that with
whiz fizzes, but we didn't have raro. We
missed out. Whiz fizz.
Did you guys have whiz fizz? Can't just make up food.
Whiz fizz is a real thing.
Thanks, Natalia.
Adrian, hi, welcome to the show.
Hey, guys, how's it going?
Good, thanks, Adrian.
What are you serving up?
Oh, it has to be a pie.
It has to be a pie.
It's not just any pie.
It's certain pies like a pork belly and puha pie.
Oh, yum.
Oh, you don't get those at the gas belly and puha pie. Oh, yum.
You don't get those at the gas station.
You've gone for them. Yeah, where do you get them?
You can only get those in Otaki. Otaki.
Do they do them at the gas station in Otaki?
No, no. Go down the main street into the village and there's a place. Homemade. Yeah, right.
I think you might. That sounds it. They make all their
pies in store. Yeah. And it fragrance
the whole town. It's just, oh, so good.
Okay, it's like the K oh, so good. Okay,
it's like the KFC
of Otaki.
Okay,
Adrian,
that's a great option.
Thank you very much.
Just a couple of options
off the text machine.
Power fritter
and a cold tui
is what we'd serve
as a quintessentially
Kiwi meal.
Someone said,
just a box of
Woodstock bourbon
and cola for dinner.
She'd love that.
Someone else said
some Vogels,
which I think of that
as being super Kiwi. What, just Vogels? Well, they said some vogels, which I think of that as being super kiwi.
What, just vogels?
Well, they said with other stuff,
but boil-ups and fried bread
and manuka honey. Yeah, manuka
honey's so kiwi. I reckon you've got to put the
honey with the vogels. Those two things on their
own, they need, they both
need an assistant. Finally,
Lars. G'day, Lars. Hello, Lars.
Hello, guys. How are you going?
Good, mate.
How are you?
Not too bad, thanks.
Okay, you're a chef
and you've got the...
No, no, just in this instance
you're a chef, okay?
Yeah.
And you've got the big job.
Yeah, what are you serving
to Queen Lizzie?
Well, actually I thought about
a couple of other things as well
and I thought cream of pumpkin soup
for a starter.
Oh, yeah, delish.
Good old pumpkin soup.
And for a main, boil up with some
watercress and nice pork bones.
And for dessert, some good old Kiwi
hokey pokey ice cream.
Hokey pokey ice cream, good. Is there a drink
that you couple this dish with?
Probably a pina colada.
What? That's so leftist center, I love it.
You were so nailing it until you went
pina colada. And we're like, why Lars? And Lars is like centre. I love it. You were so nailing it until you went Peter Kalata. And we're like, why, Lars?
And Lars is like, because I like it.
Love it, Lars.
Thank you for your call.
Maybe a cosmopolitan.
See you guys.
Bye.
Bree and Clint.
Time for the latest.
From iHeartRadio.
This is The Latest.
Live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Dean, Kanye West is back in the news and for a really good reason this time.
Yeah, he certainly is today.
Kanye West donated $2 million to George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Armand Arbery's families
to support their legal cases.
And he also set up, would you believe, a college trust fund for George Floyd's six-year-old daughter.
He's already paid for her college education,
which is so beautiful. Two million
bucks, Kanye West. He's also encouraging
other music groups around the world, like Warner,
who've now pledged $100
million towards anti-racism
causes this year as well.
He's starting a big,
mega trend, and I think that paying for
George Floyd's daughter's education
is pretty gorgeous. That's education is pretty just gorgeous.
That's the right thing to do.
He copped a lot of heat in the last few years for wearing a Make America Great Again hat
and for meeting with Donald Trump.
And a lot of people in his own community were like, what happened to you?
What are you doing?
Also interesting that he set up a college fund because he notoriously doesn't believe
in people going to college.
And in a lot of his albums, he's gone, he's sort of,
he's like, stop trying to make me get a degree.
I'm not interested in getting a degree.
But maybe he realises it's not for him, but it might be for other people.
Possibly.
Absolutely right.
That's really interesting and good to hear.
Thanks for that.
Dean, that's the latest out of Hollywood with Dean, our correspondent.
The latest is brought to you by Bumble.
That's the social networking app where women make the first move.
It's a Friday and that means we are reflecting on the week that was.
We're taking a look back and celebrating and commiserating.
A week this week which involves lies, deceit, trust being broken
commitment
determination
commitment phobia
greatness
lack of
pranking queens
pranking kings
accomplices
pure absolute joy
people questioning their friendships
everything
it's a week that's had everything
so that's why I'm really looking forward to
this week's edition of the High Low.
Previously with ZN's Brie and Clint.
Hey guys, welcome to yet another week of Brie and Clint's Highs and Lows.
All the high points of the week and all the low points of the week.
And this week, it's a very special edition.
Over the past few weeks, Clint has been trying to get Brie to do a fitness test with him.
So to avoid it, Brie went to the effort of getting a full-blown cast on
and pretending she'd broken her leg.
So here's the moment
Clint first saw Brie
in a full-blown cast.
Hey, guys.
G'day, mate.
G'day, mate.
Look at this sorry sight.
Is it broken?
It's broken.
You're in a full cast.
Yeah.
Well, it's in a cast where this part here can swell.
Yeah.
And then you go back and you get the full...
Oh, f***ing full cast.
Your toes are going to be oozing out of there by the end of the day.
I know.
That's why I need to keep it up.
Or else it'll just be like...
Yeah.
But later on that day during the show,
we think Clint had his suspicions.
Hey, there's a cloud of suspicion
hanging over the Bree and Clint studio today,
and I want to be honest about it.
I want to get it out there and just address it straight up.
What is it?
Look, I'm upset, and I'm just going to come out and say it.
Tomorrow, we were meant to do our big running race.
We were going to do a bronco.
Long weekend, plenty of time to prepare,
which, by the way, is just like a sprinting test. It's horrific.
I'm not going to lie. Yeah, but it'll be a bit of fun.
Didn't want to do it. Today, we get
a message from Bree to say that she's an A&E
and then at lunchtime she shows up to work
in a cast with crutches.
Are you telling me
that you think I went
to all of this trouble
to get out of that?
I'm just saying.
I'm just saying. I'm just saying.
I've got a full-blown cast.
I'm just saying, I know how much you don't want to run the Bronco.
And yet somehow the day before we meant to do it,
who shows up literally on crutches with a brand-new cast on your leg?
Yeah, I broke my leg.
So to make it even more believable, she even lied to her own mother.
I've broken my leg?
Brianna, I'm sad, Incan.
If you've broken your leg, I'm going to come over there and break the other one.
Brianna, you haven't broken your leg, have you?
Mum, it's a hairline fracture, not a big deal. Brianna, how on't broken your leg, have you? Mum, it's a hairline fracture.
Not a big deal.
Brianna, how on earth did you do that?
For goodness sake.
Mum, I'm at that age where I had a fall.
No, in all seriousness, Mum, it's stupid.
I actually tripped over some stuff because I was helping our friend Dan renovate
and it didn't end.
I just felt, I just landed weird
and I thought I'd sprained my ankle.
So you've got a moon boot, have you?
She will have.
I will have after the cast comes off.
Just so you know.
I know where that moon boot's going to go.
Oh, actually, there is a high on this story.
Clint did do the Bronco and this was his time.
I'm accepting your assertion that the broken leg is real
and I'm going to take it at face value and
I manned up and I did the bronco by myself
today. That's absolutely fine. I've done it by myself.
So Bowdoin's time is, what was Bowdoin's time?
Bowdoin's time was 4 minutes
and 12 seconds. I don't know
my time. You ran the bronco
in
7 minutes 14 seconds
97 milliseconds
Are you serious?
I'm dead serious
7 minutes
I mean
It's pretty good
It's nearly
Double
Boat of Barrett
And finally
This is the moment
Clint found out
That it was all
A big lie
Sorry Clint
We're not really sorry
Can you do me a favour?
Yes.
Can you hold this for me?
You just hold the cast.
I knew it.
I knew it was too good to be true.
You are such a loser.
But who got out of the fitness challenge?
I mean, I did have to shower, sleep and use crutches for the last four days
and it probably wasn't worth it at all.
There's the most incredible lengths to go to to avoid just a stupid little run.
I knew it.
Yes, yes.
Remember I came in.
Juices were in on it.
No one else.
We pulled it off, guys. Prank queen, prank queen, yes. Remember I came in. Juices were in on it. No one else. We pulled it off, guys.
Prank queen, prank queen, prank.
And that wraps up another week of Brinklin's Highs and Lows.
See you this time next week.
Which is a great time for me to reveal the great news I've got.
What?
Dan Carter is yet to run his Bronco test at the Blues,
so he said that you can join him.
Oh, my leg.
I've just hurt my leg again.
There's a couple that's getting a bit of attention on social media
after their cake topper has gone viral.
Cake topper?
Yeah, you know, cake topper.
Cake topper.
Cake topper.
What's a cake topper?
You know the thing, it's like the bride and groom
or sometimes people have other weird stuff on top of the cake.
Oh, the bit that goes on top of the cake.
Yeah, I got you.
Yeah, like the bride and groom or whatever.
Oh, a cake topper.
Yeah, you know a cake topper.
How many times have we said cake topper?
Cake topper.
Should we say it again?
Cake topper.
Cake topper.
Anyway, they've gone viral because guests were left,
they didn't know how to feel when they saw what was on top
of their wedding cake.
Oh, no.
Did they put the bride and the groom in a sexual position?
No, but that's quite interesting.
Yeah.
Have you seen that before?
No, but I can imagine like not me per se doing it,
but I would think it was a funny gag, you know?
No. say doing it, but I would think it was a funny gag, you know? No, it was actually little mini figurines.
So it was the groom and the bride and they've got like a,
I think the daughter is on the top of the cake as well,
but they're not in human form.
They were all in little penises.
Oh, they made the... Oh, that...
Oh.
Oh.
Why would you bring the daughter into it?
That's what I thought.
I was like, leave her out of it.
Okay, I'm going to describe what I see.
Okay.
It is a heterosexual wedding.
So why the woman has been turned into a little prunus, I don't know.
Yeah. She's wearing a pearl necklace. She's wearing a pearl necklace.
She is wearing a pearl necklace.
Yeah. I believe it's a Scottish
I think it's a Scottish wedding
because the groom
is wearing a kilt. So that's not the daughter
that's the son.
Yeah he's also wearing a kilt.
Oh he is too.
Might be the sun.
Well, excuse me for not being able to tell.
So I understand why the sun would be a little penis.
Yeah, well, I get that.
But why is the wife?
Why is any of it?
Is it a penis-themed wedding?
Because I'm not catching that bouquet.
Apparently, it's supposed to be aliens for an out-of-this-world wedding.
Well, they didn't hire the right KK.
Yeah, but people are like, everyone agreed.
There's no eyes.
There's no eyes.
There's no arms.
But, I mean, I guess I've never seen an alien, so what do I know?
Maybe that's what they look like.
But they did have that theme, this out-of-this-world wedding,
and that was kind of like, you know, and they obviously did that cake.
The rest of the cake kind of looks a bit space futuristic.
Good for them.
It's their day, and when it comes to weddings,
I always say you've got to do what makes you happy
because it's your big day. So do whatever you want.
However –
If you want to ride a pig down the aisle, you ride a pig down the aisle.
But know that it's a shared experience and your guests are a part of this
and they will walk away with some kind of memory and impression.
Oh, I don't care about the guests.
I care about the person I'm marrying.
Yeah, but you should care about the guests if you're imposing the theme on them.
If you go, okay, it's a Lord of the Rings wedding
and we're all coming as orcs.
Yeah, love it.
Do you?
Well, I probably wouldn't do it,
but I'd be on board if it wasn't my wedding.
Do you know what I mean?
I'd be like, fun.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I want to know, because you said to me
you'd never been to a themed wedding.
I've never been to a themed wedding, no.
I've never been to a themed wedding, which I'm open to it.
I'd love to go to one.
Yeah.
But I want to know from people listening,
did you have a themed wedding or have you attended one?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, it can be anything.
Yeah, maybe you're a celebrant and you've worked a themed wedding.
Oh, yeah.
Or a DJ or something like that as well.
Keen to know about themed weddings.
Can they work?
Do they work?
Do they even happen or is it just in movies?
Exactly.
0800-DIAL-ZM
or you can text us on 9696.
Themed weddings.
Have you been to one?
We're talking about themed weddings.
Yes, themed weddings.
You know the things we're talking about.
You've seen them on TV.
You might have been to one.
Yeah.
But you and I have never been to one.
No. And we want to hear about some.. But you and I have never been to one. No.
And we wanted to hear about some.
I want to know that they exist.
Me too.
There's some really good text messages coming through
with a lot of people who have attended themed weddings.
Let's talk to someone.
Tina, hi.
Welcome to the show.
Hi, thanks guys.
Tina, have you been to a themed wedding or was it yours?
No, definitely not mine.
My step-sister had a steampunk themed wedding.
Oh, steampunk.
So that was cool.
The reception was all steampunk themed as well.
Skulls and bones and all the rest of it.
But the out of it thing was it was held at a graveyard.
No way, Tina.
Well, that's not the strange thing about a steampunk wedding, is it?
No.
That seems perfectly on brand, to be honest.
Did one of them have an ex and did the ex say,
over my dead body?
Thanks, Tina.
Steampunk wedding sounds fun.
Nathan.
Hi, Nathan.
G'day, Nathan.
G'day.
How's it going?
Good, thanks.
Have you been to a themed wedding?
Yes, I have.
Whose was it?
It was my wife's
good friend,
the Argentinian.
Okay.
And it was
a superheroes
and villains wedding.
That's cool.
What were the bride
and groom dressed as?
So he was Cyclops
and she was Storm.
Oh, from X-Men.
Oh, I thought
there was incredibly
niched Argentinian superheroes. I thought that's what we were talking about. No, Cyclops and Storm from X-Men. Oh, I thought there was incredibly niched Argentinian
superheroes. I thought that's what we were talking about.
No, Cyclops and Storm from X-Men, the coolest
ones. Yeah, right. Oh, good. What did you go as?
Please say Wolverine.
I wish that. I was the Joker.
Oh, not bad. That's pretty good. Not bad.
Heath Ledger Joker?
Yeah, it was
full on, yeah. Let's hope
it wasn't the Jim Carrey one.
He was the Riddler.
Oh, he was the Riddler.
I do that every time.
I hope I'm pronouncing this correct.
Chum.
Yes.
G'day, Chum.
You're a marriage celebrant,
and you've attended some themed weddings.
Tell us about it.
Oh, sure.
Yeah, so the first one I did
was to my brother and sister-in-law.
Yeah.
And theirs was a Disney themed wedding.
Okay.
Right.
And what were they dressed as?
There was no special dress or anything like that,
but all of the words that everyone spoke were, you know,
quotes from, you know, Disney themed weddings and whatnot.
Oh my God, yeah.
Was the wedding song A Whole New World from Aladdin?
It should have been, eh?
That would have been awesome.
But no, I've got a massive ginger beard
and I look like the actor,
so I had quite a few people
get me to do this kind of thing.
I went to one dressed as Pirate.
Pirates, yeah, Pirate wedding, okay.
Yeah, and I've done a Westie themed wedding
because I ride a motorbike as well,
so they all came with ripped jeans and leather jackets and whatnot.
Yeah, like a full outrageous fortune wedding.
I love that.
So it sounds like you've been to quite a few.
Okay, this is amazing.
We have to do this.
Hannah is on the line,
and she is having a themed wedding this year.
Hi, Hannah.
Hi, Hannah.
Hi, Ralph.
First of all, how stoked are you
that we're going to be able to have weddings
later on this year, first of all?
I'm pretty stoked.
That's pretty exciting.
I really feel that we're going to have it.
Yeah.
I'm so excited to hear
what is your theme of your wedding?
So we're having a Game of Thrones theme.
Are you having a red wedding?
Oh, you've got to count on that, definitely.
Oh, my God.
So are you wearing red?
No, I'm not wearing red.
That's not why it was...
Yeah, we can leave you red at the wedding, don't worry.
I'm not going to lie.
Haven't seen Game of Thrones.
Yeah, right.
Well, that could be...
Is it because everyone died?
Yeah, I thought so.
That's going to be incredible, Hannah.
I'm pretty excited.
Do you expect your guests to come in theme as well?
It's up to them.
We've left that to their imagination if they'd like to dress up.
That means yes.
That means yes, you want them to.
And Hannah, I've just thought of something exciting for you
because it's Game of Thrones themed.
Instead of your actual husband, Jon Snow can step in.
My best friend did the same thing.
Perfect.
I love it.
Hey, congratulations and best of luck for your Game of Thrones themed wedding.
Thanks for telling us about it.
Thank you.
So exciting.
So they're a real thing.
We've established that.
We've talked to enough people.
Themed weddings.
They're on.
They're definitely a thing.
And not a single Lord of the Rings wedding. Yeah, I was
hoping for that. Where's the Harry Potter weddings?
Yeah, I think they're happening too.

Good afternoon.
Hello, hello.
This week's theme is the top earning artist of 2019.
So any of these songs will be the top earning artist of last year.
Oh, God.
You know it's June, eh?
Yeah, no, I do know it's June.
The stats aren't out yet for 2020, so we had to go with 2019.
Okay, gotcha. There we go.
Okay.
All right, song number one.
It means they're all new, current songs.
That's what I mean.
They're hard because you sit over there
and you get to look at the names and stuff all the time.
True.
You stopped listening to music when Katy Perry's California Girl came out.
Exactly.
There's no album that's going to top it.
No, right.
Okay, well, let's do our best.
Here we go.
Break this.
Taylor Swift.
Love Story.
Nice.
Yes.
Okay, so it's artists but not their songs from 2019.
Love this.
Yes.
Good, good, good.
Yeah, Taylor Swift earned $185 million last year.
In fairness, I didn't know that either.
Yeah, yeah. I was like, this is definitely not the last year.
$185 million.
Yeah.
Crazy.
I didn't tell you this, but when we had a coffee in Morningside the other day.
She was there.
No.
But Joel Little, the guy who made her last record.
He was there.
He was there.
Oh, was he?
At the cafe next door to us.
So she made $185 million.
He got some of that? Yeah. He's on the doco. Yeah, he's on the the cafe next door to us. So she made $185 million. He got some of that.
Oh, yeah.
He's on the doco.
Yeah, he's on the doco.
The Taylor Swift doco.
Yeah, nice.
Let's do another one.
All right, song number two.
Brie.
Oh, Brie.
Kanye West, Stronger.
Yes, correct.
Nice.
2-1 to Brie, and Kanye West earned $150 million last year.
Damn, how did I get a point for not even getting one right yet?
Did I just say it again? You always right yet? Did I just say that again?
You always do that. Did I just say that again?
I get a free point because I'm a man. Bree is winning.
You just get given them.
I get a leg up.
Alright, 2-0
to Bree and we're going to go for
song number three. Clint hasn't got anything.
How do you win the game? How many?
Three. Oh shit. Yeah, Bree can
win this here. Alright.
Song number three. Clint. Oh, shit. Yeah, Bree could win this here. All right. Pick up your game.
Song number three.
Clint.
Oh, Clint.
Ooh.
Ooh.
You're really coming hot here.
I know it straight away.
That's Ed Sheeran, Shape of You.
That's correct.
It is now 2-1 to Bree. You know when you know it, but there's so much pressure on the point you start second-guessing
yourself?
Totally.
Ed Sheeran earned $110 million last year.
Wow.
Oh, blimey.
Yeah, there you go.
All right, song number four.
Clint.
Yes, Clint.
That is the Eagles and Hotel California.
That's correct.
They earned $100 million last year.
How?
How?
I don't know.
Did they tour last year?
Probably.
Yeah.
That's crazy. I don't know. Did they tour last year? Probably. Yeah. That's crazy.
They're crazy when they tour.
The guy from the Eagles won't let anyone do any phone footage.
And when they played in Auckland, he stopped the show and refused to play until this person
put their phone away.
Wow.
Ellie Goulding's like that too.
What a buzzkill.
There you go.
Wow.
I paid for my ticket.
Let me make my shitty Instagram story.
All right. This is actually the tie break now. Okay. All right. There you go. Wow. I paid for my ticket. Let me make my shitty Instagram story. All right.
This is actually the tie break now.
Okay.
All right.
Song number five.
Brie.
I think it was Brie.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was Brie.
Has she got it though?
That's the question.
Elton John, Rocket Man.
That's correct.
She's taken the game.
Well done.
Grace.
Are you there, Grace?
We did it.
Yay.
Thanks for believing in me when I didn't believe in myself.
See, he's just posted a $120 million loss for this year.
Has he?
Because all his tours have had to be cancelled because of COVID-19.
Oh, wow.
And he's laid off all his staff.
Oh, no.
That is sad.
Don't worry too much.
He's still worth $700 million.
Yeah, I think he'll be fine.
He's okay.
Grace, you pick up that fuel.
Thanks to Mobile.
Thanks for calling up.
Next on the show,
New Zealand's oldest person has passed away.
Oh, that's sad.
No, actually,
New Zealand's oldest woman has passed away.
I don't want to get it wrong
in case your grandfather is the oldest person. Yeah, get that right. Someone old has passed away. I don't want to get it wrong in case your grandfather is the oldest person.
Yeah, get that right. Someone old has passed away,
okay, I'm going to tell you their tips to a long life
which now we really need to reflect.
Just push the button, Ben.
Sad news, this week New Zealand's
oldest woman passed away.
Her name was Nina Brown
and she lived to the age of
108.
Wow.
Go, Nina.
Impressive, eh?
That's really old, 108.
It's really old.
She lived through two world wars.
Wow.
And 108 means she would have been alive during the time of the Spanish flu.
God, so she lived through a lot.
Yeah, everything. In our history, we kind of think about everything that happened in the last 100 years, right?
She was there for all of it.
Every single bit.
She, in her lifetime, was a high school teacher, a mountaineer, a tramper.
She's done everything.
And, yeah, she made it to 108 and was not New Zealand's oldest person,
but New Zealand's oldest woman.
Who's the oldest person?
New Zealand's oldest person is Ron Hermans,
and he's still alive, and he is also 108,
but months-wise was slightly older than Nina.
Oh, I get it, Ron.
He won the race, I guess.
Well, he was already winning anyway.
I always find this fascinating
when someone lives a long and healthy life,
what they say their secret is.
Because people have always got a secret.
Yeah, I love knowing what they say it is.
Yeah.
And you can always compare it to your own lifestyle.
That's the interesting bit.
So I'd actually like to get everybody involved here
and we can compare our lifestyles and see who of us is most likely
to live the longest life.
Okay?
Why do you do this?
Because I want to know who's going to live the longest.
I want to live, like, in bliss.
No, no.
Ignorance is not bliss.
No, I want to live ignorantly.
Ben and Ellie, you're here too.
Hey, mate.
You just tap out when there's a criteria that you can't.
Okay.
There's only three tips.
Three tips.
Got it.
So Nina said that some of her keys to long life were that she never got married.
Oh, damn.
I'm out already.
Oh, no.
Yeah, you're out.
Oh, I'm.
Hey.
We're good to go.
Guys, producers, we're in here.
We're in.
Okay. Just you three then.
I'm going to add that excuse to my list.
Nina said she also never had children.
Hey.
Oh, haven't got them either.
No, haven't got those.
I'm already out.
You're out twice.
I'm a goner in the next very shortly by the sound of it.
But you three still in.
Ben, you still in?
Here we go.
Still definitely in.
This is going somewhere.
And the third criteria, Nina Brown, rest in peace,
New Zealand's oldest woman who passed away at 108,
her third key to a long life, and let me know if you guys
are still included after I say this. She never drank alcohol.
Well, I'm out.
Yeah, definitely out.
Cheers.
You two are drinking right now.
Yeah, we literally are.
I finished mine.
Can I get another one?
Hey, I've got some exciting stats that I'd like to test on you, Clint.
Okay, I'm ready.
So did you hear Google released their most misspelled words?
Ah, no.
Google would know too.
Yeah, and apparently they also obviously have the words
that people Google how to spell the most.
Okay.
Which I do that quite a lot.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
So apparently separate was the most misspelled word on Google last month,
according to data. I'd like you now, Clint, to spell separate.
Separate. See, I can do it if I write it down, but I can't do it out loud because I can't
see it. Okay, well, do we have a piece of paper? No, no, no, no, no.
Do we have a piece of paper so we have no excuse?
No, here we go.
S-E-P-E-R-A-T-E.
That's correct.
Thank you.
Do we have a ding?
Perfect.
So that was searched over 92,000 times in May.
I just got nervous.
It's not a hard word.
I just got nervous.
All right, let's see how you do on some of the other most common ones, shall we?
Or do you want to pull out now?
No, I'm ready.
Okay, Clint, can you please spell zucchini?
Oh, this is an issue because somewhere it's zucchini, I think.
Zoo-chee.
Zucchini.
Zucchini.
Zucchini.
Z-U- Zucchini. Zid.
U.
C-H-I.
No.
What did I get wrong?
Z-U-double-C-H-I-N-I.
Zucchini.
Oh, Zuccini.
Zuccini.
All right.
This was really weird.
I don't want you to...
Actually, maybe I will get you to spell this,
but I thought this word as the most commonly misspelled words on Google
was very out of place.
Okay.
Potato.
Oh, po-tato.
Boil and mash them, stick them in a stew.
P-O-T-A-T-O.
I so wish you had got that wrong.
But that's correct.
All right, Clint, one of the other most common misspelled words on Google is diarrhea.
Oh, no, I can never do this.
I can never make this one work because I know it's like diahorea or dihaorea.
Don't say that.
So I'm going to get this wrong, but I'm going to do my best.
Go on, give it a go.
Diarrhea.
D-I-R-H-D-I-A-R-H-O-E-A.
Incorrect.
How do you spell it? D-I-A-R-H-O-E-A.
Diarrhea.
Diarr-horror.
That's such a hard word to spell.
Let's go with some easier ones.
I've got two more for you.
What about the word definitely?
I feel like I always write defiantly.
Definitely.
Definitely.
Sound it out, Clint.
Definitely.
Def.
Most common misspelled words on Google.
D-E-F.
Yep.
Def.
It's an E or an I.
Def.
E.
No.
You were going one way or the other.
D-E-F-I-N-I-T-E-L-Y.
I thought it was I.
Because I thought it was I, I thought go with E because I'm always wrong.
Do you want one more to redeem yourself?
Not particularly, but yep.
Miscombobulated.
Miscombobulated?
Yeah.
What's miscombobulated?
Do you mean discombobulated?
I was trying to come up with a really tricky word.
You know what the issue is?
You got all discombobulated.
I did.
Brie and Clint.
And now it's time for Brie and Clint's most popular segment.
Friday Oki.
I love Friday Oki.
It's the best.
I listen every Friday.
I never miss Friday Oki.
Thanks, Brie and Clint.
You've made my Friday again.
Brie and Clint.
Friday Oki. Friday-okey. Thanks, Bree and Clint. You've made my Friday again.
Friday-okey!
It's our singing challenge that nobody asked
for. We go head-to-head singing
a song that you guys vote on, actually.
You guys pick the song and then we spend
15 minutes with a professional trying to record
it as best we can and then you decide the
winner. Look, we both take part
in this because we know we're average and hopefully it gives
someone out there a bit of a laugh.
Bree's choice won overwhelmingly this week.
Shania Twain took down Lords Royals.
So that's what we're singing.
I've got to be honest, I went into this overconfident.
I was like, oh, it's a low register.
I'll be able to do it.
Should be okay.
Should be sweet.
Look, I'm going to be honest.
The only time I've sung this is when I've had a few drinks.
And you feel like you're pretty good when you've had a few drinks.
And then when you do it sober, it doesn't sound the same.
Here's what we do.
We play them both.
And then once you've heard both, we need five calls to decide the winner.
Because Bree's song was the one chosen this week, you get to go first.
All right.
Good luck.
Let's go, girls.
Sorry, I took it over you.
Let's go, girls.
I'm sorry.
Good luck.
Thank you.
Let's go, girls.
That was clearly an important part.
Yes.
Come on.
I'm going out tonight.
I'm feeling all right.
I'm going to let it all hang out.
Want to make some noise.
Really raise my voice.
Yeah, I want wanna scream and shout.
No inhibitions, make no conditions, get a little out of line.
I ain't gonna act politically correct, I only wanna have a good time.
The best thing about being a woman is the prerogative to have a little fun.
I'm sorry, that time of the month.
Get it together.
Whoa, go totally crazy.
Forget I'm a lady.
Men's shirt, short skirt.
Whoa, really go wild. Yeah's shirt, short skirt. Whoa, oh, oh.
Really go wild, yeah.
Doing it in style.
Whoa, oh, oh.
Getting the action.
Feel the attraction.
Color my hair, do what I dare.
Whoa, oh, oh.
I want to be free and feel the way I feel.
Men, I feel like a woman
Let's go!
Bring it in, ladies!
Bring it in!
Some weeks I hate this feature.
What do you mean, some weeks?
Sorry, I hate this feature.
Well, don't say that after mine!
No, I'm saying because I'm about to play mine.
Because not only do I not have the pipes for it,
I don't have the insight in what it's like to feel like a woman.
Like I can't sing from experience.
What do you think of mine?
It was fun.
I'm not going to pass judgment.
I'm not going to pass judgment, am I?
Here we go.
I'll just play it and then we can go to the results.
Let's go, girls.
I'm really, I really...
That's good, that's good.
Come on.
I'm sorry.
To women in general.
I'm going out tonight.
I'm feeling all right.
I'm gonna let it all hang out.
Wanna make some noise.
Really raise my voice.
Yeah, I wanna scream and shout.
No inhibitions.
Make no conditions.
Get a little out of line.
I ain't gonna act politically correct.
I only want to have a good time.
The best thing about being a woman
is the prerogative to have a little fun and
oh, oh, oh, go totally crazy.
Yeah, forget about lady.
Men's shirts, short skirts.
Oh, oh, oh, go really wild. Yeah's shirts, short skirts. Oh, oh, oh.
Go really wild, yeah.
Doing it in style.
Oh, oh, oh.
Getting the action.
Feel the attraction.
Cover my head, do what I dare.
Oh, oh, oh.
I want to be free, yeah.
Feel the way I feel.
Because, man, I feel like a woman
I'm not proud of myself.
No, good, good.
Yes, Shania would be proud.
She lives here in the country part-time.
If she heard that, I would be mortified.
Shout out to Shania down in Wanaka.
We need five votes to pick the winner of Friday Oki this week.
Is it mine or is it Bree's?
Bree and Clint.
Friday Oki!
This might be the last airing of this segment.
Yeah, we might have to rest this segment, I think.
That didn't feel good.
The phones are still open.
If you want to have a say, have a vote on 0800DIALZM.
We're looking for five votes to choose between.
Breeze, Shania, Twain.
Oh, that's mine.
No, that's you.
Breeze, Shania, Twain.
Don't put my name next to yours.
Breeze, Shania.
This is a stitch-up. Breeze Shania. This is a stitch up.
Breeze Shania Twain.
Yep, I feel like my boobs came in in that song.
And mine that you just heard twice there, so we'll just leave it at that.
Joseph, welcome to the show.
Good afternoon.
G'day, Joe.
Hi, guys.
First of all, is it time for Friday Okie to have a little bit of a holiday?
If it is, this is the perfect song to finish off.
Yeah, right.
I agree.
I appreciate that.
I really hope you don't.
Thank you.
Who's your vote for this week?
Clint, your verse at the start was great,
but Brie absolutely nailed it in the chorus,
so I've got to give it to Brie.
Cheers, Joe.
Appreciate that.
Thank you for the critique.
James is here.
Hi, James.
G'day, James.
G'day.
How's it going?
Good, thanks.
What are your thoughts this week on Friday Okies?
That's got to be Clint's worst resistance so far, I think.
Did he say Clint's worst or best?
No, you reckon that was my worst so far?
Worst, yes.
Oh, right.
I got lulled into a false sense of security
to think you might be voting for me.
But that's fine.
Thank you, James.
Two votes for Bree.
Let's ask Adam.
Adam, who felt more like a woman?
I think Clint won that one.
Really?
I mean, it was a bit flat here and there, but it was more consistent.
Breeze was breaking up quite bad.
Yeah, okay.
I think that was your radio.
I felt like I was strong.
Thank you, Adam, keeping me in the game just slightly.
We've got all lads today.
It's all men.
Yeah.
Craig, g'day, mate.
Hello, Craig.
Hello, how are you?
Hey, big guy.
How are you going?
Whatever you do, do not get rid of Friday Oaky, okay?
It's like the best part of listening to it in the afternoon.
Okay, well, it gives a chance to everyone.
It's been a Friday afternoon, okay?
I'm a dairy farmer.
Don't get rid of that.
Okay, no, well, we appreciate that feedback.
It's just hard for us to know, sitting here listening to our own punishing voices.
Craig, I'm not going to lie.
Last week.
I'd rather it was you than me.
Yeah.
Last week, we didn't do Friday Oaky, and I was like, why is my confidence so up this weekend?
And I was like, oh.
That's why.
Didn't do Friday Oki.
Check us a vote, Craig.
Bree or me?
My vote has to go to Clint.
I think I went through a dead spot when you were singing, Bree.
So, Clint, you have to get my vote today.
I got a default vote.
I'll take it, though, because that means we go to tie break.
Thanks, Craig.
We appreciate it, mate.
Thanks, Craig.
Evelyn, our sole female vote this week.
Welcome to the show. Hi, Evelyn. Hi. How are you, mate. Thanks, Craig. Evelyn, our sole female vote this week. Welcome to the show.
Hi, Evelyn.
Hi.
How are you?
Good.
How are you?
I'm good, thanks.
Who are you voting for today?
I'm voting for Clint.
Thank you, Evelyn.
I really appreciate that.
This is the issue.
You put in a good singing performance, and then you go up two votes to nil,
and then somehow...
No, I think mine was just as bad, to be honest.
Okay, that's Friday Oki.
Next, though.
Not going to be back next week.
Next, oh.
Nah, it's not coming back.
Now that I won, I want to play again next week.
Of course you do.
Bree and Clint.
Hey.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's birthday banger.
All right, this is where we take your guys' birthdays
and we figure out what was number one on your 16th.
Matt's first.
Hey, Matt.
G'day, Matt.
How are you?
Good, how are you, mate?
I'm all right for a Friday.
Yeah, getting there, getting there.
Weekend tomorrow, which is good.
What's your birthday?
1st of April, 1977.
All right, you were 16 in 1993 on the 1st of April.
And back in the early 90s, this had a number one hit.
And I will always love you.
We were just talking about her today.
God, I love Whitney Houston.
Matt, it's an epic birthday banger, man.
Are you stoked?
I have a strange feeling that one's going to win.
It might, Matt.
It's won every time it's been up before,
so, yep, that's a pretty good feeling to have.
Amelia, hello.
Hey, Brie, how are you going?
Good, mate. How are you?
Yeah, pretty good.
That's good.
Keen to do your birthday banger?
I am.
Perfect.
What's your birthday?
7th of October, 1982.
All right, you were 16 in 1998 on the 7th of October,
and this is your birthday banger.
Come on, come on, get it on, riding in a roller coaster, come on, get it on right in a roller coaster.
Come on, come on, come on.
I'm going to need help with this.
Is this Bewitched?
Bewitched.
Oh, it is Bewitched.
One of their biggest hits.
I think you can count them all in one hand, can't you?
You leave the girls alone.
Amelia, do you like your birthday banger from Bewitched, Rollercoaster?
I've never heard of it
I know
Don't take it to my taste
Fair enough
That's okay, we'll get one more for Jane
Hi Jane
Hi guys, how are you?
Jane, happy birthday for today
Oh wow
Thanks very much
Have you had a good day?
Yeah, it's been at work though, but yeah, pretty good.
Someone cooking you dinner tonight or buying you dinner at least?
Well, I blinking hope so.
They better bloody be doing something.
If you're Jane's person and you're listening right now,
you better get your A into G, all right?
Right now.
It's your birthday banger.
Jane, when's your birthday?
It's today, so 5th of June, 1962.
All right, you were 16 in today, so 5th of June, 1962.
Right, you were 16 in 1978 on the 5th of June.
And Jane, this is your birthday banger.
Nice, Jane.
That's a massive birthday banger, Jane.
It's showing my, though, mate.
Yeah, it's okay.
Does Grease remind you of being 16 when you see it?
Absolutely.
Yeah, right.
Well, that's the whole idea of this segment, so that's good.
That was my favourite movie as a kid too, Jane, so it reminds me. Yeah, well, John Travolta.
Oh.
Yeah, John Travolta.
Yeah, he gets my motor running.
Still.
Yeah.
Does he?
I think he's aged really quite well. And then when he shaved his head, he looks amazing. running. Still. Yeah. Does he? I think he's aged really quite well.
And then when he shaved his head, he looks amazing.
Oh, yeah.
He did.
Yeah, he looks good with the shave.
He's coming back.
He's coming back.
There was the spray painting his hair on for a bit,
which was a bit of a rough time.
But we're through that.
We all have moments.
Okay, Jane, I'm going to get you to wait there
while we make a decision.
We need to choose between Whitney,
which has always won the segment when it's been up,
Roller Coaster from Bewitched, and Grease, You're The One That I Want.
I really loved everyone.
I love Jane.
It's her birthday today, and I love that song, but I can't go past my girl Whitney.
No, I know what you mean.
It would have to be an incredible song To blow that song
Out of the water
I don't know
Maybe another Whitney song
I don't even know about that
Yeah
Good point
Matt
Congratulations
You've just won
Birthday banger
Well done ma'am
Thank you very much
I had a feeling
I was going to win
Yeah we know you did
Can't go past it
Should have put money on it
It's a short thing
Here we go
Should have stayed
We'll stop talking now
Brinklin's in him.
I would
only
be in
your way
So I'll
go
but I know
I'll think of you every step of the way.
And I will always love you
We'll always love you
You
My darling you You, my darling, you
Bittersweet memories

You.
Darling, I love you.
Oh, I'll always, I'll always love you.
Zeddy and Bree and Clint, that's Whitney Houston
and I Will Always Love You.
The late, great Whitney Houston.
If you...
Yeah, sorry.
I was just about to say, if you love Whitney Houston,
have you watched the documentary on TVNZ?
No.
There's a great documentary on demand, TVNZ on demand,
if you want to have a look.
Yeah.
It's sad.
It's really sad, but it's, yeah.
It's just a sad story.
It's really sad, but it's an amazing documentary about her life.
That song we just played.
Yeah.
Kygo should jump on a remix of it.
Now he's just getting old Whitney songs and remixing them.
I know.
I mean, to be honest.
That's what he's doing now.
Get a bloody Kygo remix of that going on.
Get some doof-doof in it.
Get some Whitney at the festival.
Hey, I love the one he did recently, so why not?
This is really good news for Japan, Clint,
because this week they are lifting their state of emergency.
Oh, yeah.
So they're kind of coming out the other side like we are here,
coming out the other end.
It's got other connotations, doesn't it?
Definitely not the right thing to say.
I apologise.
Japan's been sick for a while and now it's coming out the other end.
Which is, I mean, sometimes a good sign.
No, they're coming out the other side of this whole thing just like we are,
which is exciting and great for them, which means that they are also opening theme parks.
Okay.
Well, they're getting them ready to reopen.
Yeah.
Which I'm sure there'd be heaps of people keen to get back to the theme parks.
And there's this one theme park that I found quite interesting, the rules that they're implementing there once they reopen.
Sure.
So obviously all people working there must wear masks.
That makes sense.
Unless they're like characters.
Ah.
Which they're like saying you have to stay away from those people,
like keep your distance.
So if you're like, for example, Mickey Mouse and you've got a head on.
You can't really wear a mask
That is your mask
Oh no I mean
More the people like
Dressing up like Cinderella
Or
Oh
Those type of people
Oh I thought you meant
Like the costumes
With the big heads on them
Oh baby
Because you can wear a mask
Inside that
But having been inside
A big costume like that
It'd be so hot
It's already very stuffy
Too hot
They've also increased
Sanitising measures
Where you have to sanitise before
you get on rides and stuff, which is good.
Social distancing and they're
also taking people's body temperatures.
Yeah, a lot of places are doing that.
They can just do it by infrared camera now.
So you don't even have to stick
a thermometer up your bum anymore. I don't know
if people were doing that.
It's a very accurate way to read your temperature.
I love how it's either armpit, under the tongue or bottom,
but you choose the bottom.
I'm just saying it's a more accurate way to read the temperature.
Is it?
But each to their own.
And you love to be accurate.
I love my stats, man.
But there's one rule which I found very unusual.
Okay.
So this Japanese theme park is saying when they reopen,
they're going to implement all those rules.
And the other rule is that guests are not allowed to scream.
Oh.
How is that going to work?
How does that work at a theme park?
Yeah.
And why not?
I'm thinking about screaming.
So they're saying that when you scream you can obviously it's like
yeah droplets can come out of your mouth should we try it should we try it don't look at each other
look away from each other so you you go that way and i'll go i'll go this way yeah and just see if
it feels like there's droplets coming out of it because you know when you sneeze and you know
stuff's coming out um producer ellie could probably capture this on the slow-mo cams.
Oh, yeah.
Could you, Ellie?
Actually.
Oh, this is so gross.
You just don't look at me.
What are we doing?
Just give me a rollercoaster scream.
Okay?
Oh, God.
Ready?
I'll count you down.
Three.
Wait, wait.
How am I the only one doing it now?
Because you go first to show me how to use the tone.
I know this game.
And then three, two.
Give me your best rollercoaster scream.
Oh, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow.
I meant to tell you not to do it under the microphone.
Oh, my ears.
Oh.
Was it too loud?
Yeah, this game's cancelled.
Ah.
Brian Clint.
Alicia Silverstone.
Do you remember her?
Clueless Yeah she's from Clueless
She played Batgirl in one of the Batman movies
She was a big deal in the 90s
Massive
Big time actress
Anyway she has come
She's in the news actually again today
Because she was talking about how
She still takes baths with her nine year old son
Oh yeah
And people are very torn on this.
Some people are like, yeah, that's fine, not a big deal.
And other people are like, oh, I think he's a bit old.
And we were all discussing this as a team.
Yeah.
And go with your gut on this.
Don't overthink it.
What do you think?
You're the one with the kid.
Oh, well, don't put this back on me. You're the one who brought the topic up. No, I'm saying you're the one with the kid. Oh, well, don't put this back on me.
You're the one who brought the topic up.
No, I'm saying you're the one with the kid.
You're the one who brought it up.
I don't have kids.
I can't really comment.
It's you.
What's the question?
What age do you think it maybe becomes a bit awkward
to still be bathing with your kids?
Okay.
Nine.
I reckon the nine-year-old is right on the line.
He's right on the cusp.
Do you think it would be different if her son was a daughter?
Because she's bathing.
No, I just think there comes an age where you don't want to be naked
in a pool of water with your parents.
I'm talking about the kid.
I think it definitely has to do with the gender a little bit.
Do you?
Yeah, like, depending, like, if it was a daughter and she was nine,
I'd probably go, oh, okay, yeah, they've all got the same bits.
Okay, so do you have an age in mind?
Nine feels very on the cusp for me.
Yeah, we've established that.
Producer Ellie had a good point.
She said if you've hit puberty, probably not.
Yeah, maybe not anymore. Yeah, but it's not a sexual thing. She said if you've hit puberty, probably not. Yeah, maybe not anymore.
Yeah, but it's not a sexual thing.
No, I know.
It's not, but I think it's just where, like, I remember as a kid,
if I'm totally honest, I used to have baths with my sister,
my brother, my mum, my cousins, certain friends.
Everyone except Big Steve.
Yeah, not Big Steve.
Poor Big Steve.
No one wants to have a bath with Big Steve.
Or maybe when I was really young, but I can't remember that.
But anyway, I remember, and it was the best time ever.
We used to play games in there and do whatever.
And then I remember really vividly in my mind where I was really aware
that I was naked with other people.
Yeah, something.
Where I just didn't feel totally comfortable anymore.
Ben, you're from Christchurch,
so different way of living down there.
Yeah.
What's the age for you guys?
20.
Oh, that's inappropriate.
Nah, nah, I've been to Christchurch.
No, I don't think everyone in Christchurch.
Good water down there.
You don't want to waste it.
That's true, yeah.
Water green.
You don't want to waste it.
So I reckon, here's what I reckon it is,
I don't reckon you want to go to intermediate
still bathing with your parents.
So what's that here?
How old? 10? 10, 11.
I don't think you want anyone outside of primary school
knowing that you're having baths with your parents.
I think that might be it.
Because that...
I feel real judgmental.
It is really judgmental.
That's why I say go with your gut.
It's up to the person.
Like if the kid goes, I don't feel appropriate,
then probably not a good idea.
I reckon it's up to both people.
Because if the kid is like 15 and is like, I want a bath, mummy,
and the mum's not into it, she has to have a say as well.
She has to be like, I'm not keen anymore.
It's not cute anymore.
Sorry.
I think my mum finally said no more when I told her I was like mum your boobs used to be
In a different spot
And she was like alright that's it
No more
