Hello everybody and welcome to the Brie and Clint podcast. I have a question for the group. Yeah. Is anyone watching Married at First Sight? I am. You're watching it? I am. You're on board?

I am. Anyone else? No, I refuse to watch it. Are you upstate with Australia though? Because I'm only watching New Zealand. You know the hardest bit for me is that I follow a few Married at First Sight groups on Facebook. Yeah, Fatal Era babes.

So I just see everything before it even happens. Don't you have an illegal VPN, though, that you use to watch your Australian channels? No, we stopped paying for that. Does that make it more illegal? I don't think it's illegal, by the way. We paid for it. It's all legit, I think, actually.

Ask Alan. I wanted to talk about, did you guys see, you might have seen this even though you don't watch the show, what actually happens, apparently there's a scandal where one of the people, I'm pretty sure it's one of the guys, grabs one of the girl's toothbrushes and cleans the toilet with it. Oh, that's gross. Buzzy. No, I don't know anything about that. No, neither. You don't know about that?

So apparently... As a revenge thing or as a fetish thing? As a revenge thing. Oh, Jesus. Ben goes, smart. You're a psychopath. Yeah, you're a psycho. I was wondering,

how much would it take for you to use that toothbrush and brush your teeth? What? Use a toothbrush that has cleaned the toilet? Yeah. Can I ask some qualifying questions? Yes. Is it my toilet?

Yes. Is it my toothbrush? It's your partner's toothbrush. And what part of the toilet did you clean? Good question. The bowl. But it's been dipped in the water. The water I'm not concerned about?

The water's clean. I know how clean my toilet is. Is it clean? Very clean. If it was today, I wouldn't do it. Because part of me wants to go Nah no money But that's a lie

I'd definitely do it for a mil I'd do it for half a mil I'd do it for 100 grand I'd do it for 50 grand I'd do it for 25 grand I'd do it for Far out I keep trying to find a new basement in this

To be honest my answer Probably with my toilet would have to be no. But the reason I ask is because a mate of mine, his name's Tom. He used to be a producer on a radio show I used to do back home. He now works on a show called The Kyle and Jackie O Show. And they pretty much had the toothbrush that was in question that was used on the show to clean the toilet yeah as the sabotage toothbrush yeah so they had this toothbrush and jackie o one of the hosts they were like this is the actual toothbrush that um was used in the

toilet the other host goes i'll give one of the producers right now $1,000 to brush their teeth with that toothbrush. And he took it. And he did it. For $1,000? Yeah. I wouldn't do it for $1,000. No, I don't know. Do we know if it was real?

Yeah, great question. I know that show pretty well. I could message him and ask him, but I'm pretty sure it would be real. Doesn't matter whether it was real or not. If you think it's real. Absolutely. That's the challenge. You're going through with it whether it's real or not.

I think I know what my price is. Yeah, what is it? $11,500. Why $11,500? Because I know you're going to negotiate me down to $10,000, so I'm giving myself some buffer room. Smart. Can we somehow get $10,000?

Oh, yeah, easy, bro, easy. And we'll do that on the show? How much would it take for you guys? Not a lot, to be honest. I'd probably do it for about, bro, easy. And we'll do that on the show. How much would it take for you guys? Not a lot, to be honest. I'd probably do it for about $100. Okay, here's the podcast. Hey, Google, what's the time? It's 3pm, give or take a minute.

Alexa, play Zedim on iHeartRadio. Playing Zedim on iHeartRadio. Hey, Siri, when are Brie and Clint on? Brie and Clint are on air in five, four, three, two, one. Are the mics? Oh, the mics are on, guys. Yeah, the mics are on. Can you be professional, please?

100%. This is a unique and interesting venue. That's all I'll say. Yeah, that makes me very worried. As head promoter, it's embargoed until 4.30, okay? Is there going to be free drinks? Afterwards, yeah, and biscuits. Tea and biscuits. Sounds like it there going to be free drinks? Afterwards, yeah, and biscuits. Tea and biscuits.

Sounds like it's going to be a rager. Anyway, but first on the show, I have some pretty disturbing news about, particularly if you like one type of fruit, because they're saying that this particular type of fruit, and it's one of the most popular fruits, I'd say, is going to become extinct. I hope it's the Chinese gooseberry.

Which is otherwise known as a kiwi fruit. No, kiwi fruit. Is it? No, no. Well, I just hope that name goes extinct, so we just call it a kiwi fruit. So you can take ownership of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, finally. Okay, we'll talk about that after Benny.

This is Glitter. Bree and Clint, live from Tauranga on ZM. Everyone else has left now. Bree and Clint, live from Tauranga on ZM. Guys, brace yourselves. This is quite alarming news. But reports are saying that a particular very popular fruit could be extinct. Oh, no. Very soon.

Oh, no. Oh, you say that like you're being sarcastic. But I know for a fact you love this particular fruit. Okay. Well, I rescind my sarcasm. Yeah, this is quite serious. The humble banana could be soon extinct. Well, not soon, but, you know, they say it's getting there. Extinct?

So apparently there's a team of banana experts who have spoken out recently. Wait, I'm picturing this team as all monkeys. Apparently one of the scientists' names is B1. And then they also have B2. They're doing a press conference shortly, actually. They're just coming down the stairs. Oh, no.

Oh, Jesus, one of them slipped. Oh, banana puns. punch oh that was so funny i'll jump out of my skin um anyway no this is serious bananas did you know this bananas are the fourth most important food crop globally damn that shit is bananas yeah that is crazy and you know i mean if this world goes planet of the apes style, I don't know how long they'll last because apparently it's the most consumed and produced food. Really? Yeah. Do you know how to spell bananas? Banana facts. It's bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S. Yes. Thank you, Gwen Stefani. Correct. Well done. So apparently almost 50, this is a serious story,

50 scientists and researchers are working on editing the genes of bananas to protect them against diseases. Yeah. And it's for good reason because for more than 20 years now, there's a tropical, it's called Tropical Race 4, which is a soil-borne strain of fungus that is actually killing off bananas all around the world yeah this has been happening for a long time yeah actually a few times we've been down this track and we're not just going to let it happen like that no we're not going to let this happen again and the group of scientists uh said

that you know it's happening all over Southeast Asia. It's starting to threaten the global banana industry. Right. How soon are we looking at extinction? I mean, it doesn't give an exact date, but they're saying that they're really trying to do this before it actually gets, you know, dire. Yeah, well, this is the time to act, right?

Yeah, exactly. Who's the Greta Thunberg of bananas? Who's the child star who's going to champion the banana cause? Harambe was, I think, at the forefront of it. Yeah, and he was taken out by Big Commerce. So what does that say? I mean, conspiracy. Conspiracy, absolutely right.

I think so. Yeah, I'm keen to act. I'm keen to act now. Apparently, bananas are uniquely vulnerable to the disease because of a single strain of fruit. And you might have heard of this humble banana, the Cavendish. I have heard that tattled around on the countdown ad. It dominates the global banana industry.

If you're in amongst the banana kind of people, you would know that. The Cavendish banana. The Cavendish, very popular. And that's the banana that's at risk or that's the banana that of you know people you would know that the cavendish banana the cavendish very popular um so that's the banana that's at risk or that's the banana that's causing the issues um you know what i don't actually care to be honest i don't care i don't i'm not that far into the banana that's fine you know bananas are at risk we've got to say there are wrecks extinct uh it got me thinking though obviously i don't mind banana. I don't think it's the ultimate fruit. No.

Like, I'm not putting banana at the top of the pyramid. It's not strawberry. And if my dad is listening, I definitely would put the apple at the top of the pyramid. That's definitely... Your dad being an apple farmer. Yep. I think apples are definitely a superior fruit. Yeah.

You can have it as a whole meal. It's quite filling you can put it in your handbag it doesn't bruise like a banana not once have i had an apple no disrespect to your father and gone i'm full you know why that is not a single time you know why that is i know i've got all the apple facts don't start me clinton roberts in fact anytime i've had an apple if anything i've ended up hungrier you shush because i'm about to give you some apple facts. Do you know why the apples are the size that they are? Why? Because big

global supermarket chains that people like my dad and other apple farmers sell to, they say we don't want an apple over this particular size. Yeah, cool. I'm not saying the size is the issue. I'm saying as a meal, there's nothing filling about it. Well, if it's bigger, then it would be quite filling. That's usually how it works. I'm not saying the size is the issue. I'm saying as a meal, there's nothing filling about it.

Well, if it's bigger, then it would be quite filling. That's usually how it works. I reckon I could eat nine apples and feel like I've not had a meal at all. That's not a challenge. I don't want to eat nine apples. I take it back. It's fine. Why are you hating on the apple?

No, I'm just... Get my dad on the phone, producers. Can you get my dad on the phone? I want Clint to say this to my dad, Big Steve's face. I take it all back. Yeah, you take it all back. I take it all back. He's a scary man.

No, but it got me thinking, not about what my favourite fruit is, but what food I wouldn't mind if it went extinct. Like the banana. I don't want the banana to go extinct. And not the apple. Not the apple. Definitely not the apple. It has its place.

The banana has its place. Probably one of the, you know, in the top ten. I'll give you a fruit that's got extinct right now. I hope you don't take mine. The cantaloupe. Can has its place. The banana has its place. Probably one of the, you know, in the top ten. I should give you a fruit that you've got stinking right now. I hope you don't take mine. The cantaloupe. Can't spell it. Don't know what it is. Cantaloupe. Also known as a rock melon. Yeah. Oh, is that what it is? Not a big fan. No, I wouldn't care if that went extinct. Depends. If you get a really sweet rock melon, quite good. No. So you're saying get rid of the cantaloupe. Yeah, I can't. Get rid of it.

Yeah. Also in the same kind of category would be, what's the green one, the dew melon? Yeah, honeydew. Oh, no. Just keep watermelon. Get in the bin. No, too many melons. There's only room for one melon and it's the watermelon.

Exactly right. Yeah. Yeah. So you want to do, oh, $800 a dim, what fruit needs to go away? Yeah, what fruit needs to get in the bin? I'm going to throw in pawpaw. Oh, what is that fruit? Go away.

But then what will Lucas put in his ointment? It's all mushy and nasty. No. Let us know your fruit. Bree and Clint, ZM. It's a perfect unit. Bree and Clint. We're well deep into banana chat because an article has emerged saying a group of 50 scientists

are working on developing, you know, different types of strains to obviously get rid of certain fungus that are killing off bananas. Yeah, RIP bananas. Yeah, they can become extinct soon. I just imagine, because you said before, all the scientists working on this monkey. Yeah. And then I imagined like the lab coat one monkey would be like the other one and then you would say that means something bad beneath it the subtitles. Breakthrough. We've got it.

We're asking you, we're going to save bananas, but at the same time we're going to get some other fruits to go away. What would you rather be extinct? Yeah, bananas or. Or. Yeah. Another type of fruit. We're taking some suggestions.

Jessie is here on 0800DALZM. Hi, Jessie. Hi, Jessie. Hi. What are you throwing in the mix? What fruit do you not care if it went extinct tears i think they're disgusting what really she's savage on the poor old pair the particular is it the green one or the brown one or what particular type or all of them oh like nash's is okay but i really yeah i don't like any of the other ones the green one yeah nashy pear

no she's not a pear, by the way. It probably is, but it's not a pear. I'm pretty sure it's a Japanese pear. It's round, first of all. It's a superior fruit. It looks like a pear slash apple or something. Yeah, I love that. Okay, Jessie, we agree with you.

No more pears. Pears are cancelled. Okay, pears are in the bin. Thank you for calling. Josh. Hey, Josh. Hi, Josh. Hey, there.

Hey, I was going to say durian. The what? Durian. Is that the big spiky thing, Josh? Yeah, and it stinks. Yeah, growing up in Southeast Asia, oh, that's the worst fruit ever. Yeah, they're everywhere in Southeast Asia.

A fruit that stinks, get in the bin. Get in the bin. No, no good. The durian stinky fruit, Josh. Welcome to the Chubbing Block. It's in the bin. Get out. We don't need you. Someone on the text machine, bin no no good the douyan stinky fruit josh welcome to the chubby block it's in the bed um someone on the text machine i just want to give um i just want to give this person a shout out they said ew mandarins disgusting hate the touch hate the smell on my skin i have to agree

a lot of mandarins usually end up being pretty average. I like a highly genetically modified mandarin. Yeah, see, that's not a real mandarin. No seeds, no white stringy bits, and is easy peel. Yeah, see. Pop it straight in the mouth. Mm-mm-mm. See, a good mandarin. The rest of the mandarin is too much effort. A good mandarin is really good.

Yeah. But most of the time you get a million seeds and then they're kind of bitter. On the topic of citrus, can we get rid of tangelos? Only because. Yeah, they were a thing for a little while, weren't they? Yeah, only because there's too many different kinds of bitter. On the topic of citrus, can we get rid of tangelos? Only because... Yeah, they were a thing for a little while, weren't they? Yeah, only because there's too many different kinds of oranges. We've got oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, and then tangelos. And oranges are already a kick-ass fruit, so why would you try and change it?

I love oranges. What are your guys' feelings on the mangosteen? Mangosteen? Yeah, have you ever had a mangosteen? No. Do yourself a favour. Oh, delish. Mangosteen? Yeah, have you ever had a mangosteen? No. Do yourself a favour. Oh, delish. Mangosteen.

Yeah, it's so good. It kind of reminds me a little bit, not to look at, but to taste kind of like a lychee-ish. Megan, we're cancelling fruit. What needs to go? Tomato. Tomatoes? Yeah, get on the vegetable list, you stupid tomato.

Yeah. You're not a fruit. I don't mind you. I like tomatoes. I don't mind tomatoes. It's not a fruit. I don't mind you. I like tomatoes. I don't mind tomatoes. It's not a fruit. I think they're a little bit fleshy. They hold a bit too much heat as well, don't they?

They're a bit watery too sometimes. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, and I definitely get on the old vegetable groove with that. I don't know how... Actually, now that I think about it, tomatoes on a sandwich, always ruining it. Yeah, but you're... Making it soggy. You're Italian.

Your entire diet is made of tomato and pasta. Like, what are you going to do? Just have dry pasta? Yeah, true. I take that back, actually. We use that a lot. Yeah, sorry, Megan.

Tomatoes, sorry. Not sure we can get rid of tomatoes. Yeah. But Maxine, finally, you'll give us the last one. Hi, Maxine. What fruit are we getting rid of? Oh, tamarillos.

Yuck. Oh, tamarillos. What's that? Tamarillos. That's gross. Yeah, no one eats them. What are they? Gross.

Hey, Clint. Yeah? You know how you said you'd eat nine apples? Yeah. Well, I live in Taronga and I've got some nice juicy apples on my tree. No, thanks, Maxine. I don't want them. Are you sure?

I've got big ones, small ones. What would you like? Some as big as your head. No, I say thank you for the offer. I was talking out of a hole in my head, Maxine. Maxine, he loves the offer, but he's married. Brie and Clint. Coronavirus continues to dominate the news at the moment.

Second, do we read second confirmed case? Yeah, apparently on the shore of Auckland. Yeah. A lady who had been to Italy and she'd come back and she apparently confirmed second case. Yeah, right. Obviously, for all your real coronavirus news, get them from a proper news place.

Yeah, go to the Herald. We're just giving you what we've heard and not trying to buy into the mayhem at all. Don't go and buy a shillelagh tonne of toilet paper because I just don't think that that's the best thing to do right now. People have already got 12 packs of toilet paper up on Trade Me for crazy prices. I know. People are selling it on Trade Me.

As the world continues to handle this in its own way, what I've got for you today is how Vietnam is choosing to educate its people on coronavirus. Right. Now, the Vietnamese health agency, the government branch, have thought how do we best get this out to young people and teach them what's important to know when it comes to coronavirus protection. And they've gone, what do young people love?

Music. Right. So what we've got here is the first ever coronavirus song. It's by Ka Hung Minh and Eric. Okay. And it's called Gien Kau Vai. Let's have a listen to a little bit of it here. Interesting, huh?

I picked up, because obviously it's not in English. No, it's in Vietnamese. It's in Vietnamese. I picked up, they're talking about coronavirus, where it originated from. Did you hear Wuhan? Wuhan. Yeah.

I've also heard virus in there, which I think is virus. Virus, yep. Basically, the song is telling you, wash your hands, rub, rub, rub evenly. Don't touch eyes, nose or mouth. Limit visit to crowded places. Those are some of the hot lyrics. But here comes the drop. This is the bit that's really going to get you

in the coronavirus song. So let's take a listen. Damn, this is how I want my public health information from now and forever. I want it to sound like a Kygo track. Well, I mean, DJ Juspinder Ardern could come out of retirement and just spin a track like this. Imagine her and Winston Peters on there just going, wash your frigging hands. Like, this is good.

You'd listen to this. Like, would you listen this is good You'd listen to this Like if Would you listen to this? I'd listen to this Now you're giving me a sideways I feel like it's A little bit different for us Because we can't really understand it

So it sounds kind of You know cool or whatever I understood the chorus Corona Corona Nah? Okay I quite liked it

For those of my For my peeps out there This makes me want to drink a beer. Trust me, you're going to get this because it's already become a TikTok challenge as well. Of course. There's the Gen Covi TikTok challenge to this song here. So I imagine it's just washing your hands, but I don't know what it is. Probably exactly what they're telling you to do in the song, right?

Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio. This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Live to LA with Dean McCarthy right now. Dean, there's some sad news about Misha Barton who says she's not going to do the reboot of The Hills anymore. Yes, no, she's out. Get out the violins. I'm going to brace you.

Of course, we found out the real reason she might be returning for Hills Season 2. The B word. She is boring. Oh, what? Snore fast. Accent. They are not bringing her back because she's so boring.

There is no good juicy storyline. There was nothing exciting happening. The only thing, and I'm going to bring it up because I bring it up every time I mention her name, she ran into my apartment building in a U-Haul. That is the only exciting thing she's ever done. And since then, it's all been downhill for me. Come on. You've got a personal Vin Ditter against Misha Barton.

You be nice. Poor Misha Barton. She had a bit of a rough trot. I actually watched two episodes of this reboot of The Hills on the plane the other day, and I was quite intrigued by the storyline of her and Perez Hilton, where he obviously, back in the day, like obviously wrote all of these horrible stories about her when she was hitting it big time on the OC.

And there was one episode where they were going to go to the same party and they were going to confront each other about it. So, I mean, I was hooked. Did she not do anything else for the rest of the season? That was the only thing that she did. Yeah, so that was great. I'm pleased I was hooked. Did she not do anything else for the rest of the season? That was the only thing that she did. That was great. I'm pleased you saw it. I don't know how she can be accused of being boring on a show that's scripted, though.

Like, don't we know now that The Hills isn't real? It's not her fault. It's the writer's fault. Can't they write her a more exciting storyline? You know what they should have done? They should have wrote a storyline into it where she gets a really bad drinking problem and then just goes off the rails and then meets a guy called Ryan, but he's like kind of from like the slum area of L.A.

and then they hook up and then her parents don't approve. Oh, my God. I'm talking to Dean. Clint has never seen the O.C., so he did not get any of that joke. Oh, is that an O.C. storyline? Literally The O.C. I thought it might have been. Oh, my God.

I didn't want to risk it, though. Where do you think I was pulling that from? I haven't seen The O.C., OK? That is actual... I can't believe you'd never watched The O.C. That's the latest on Mishka Barton, Dean McCarthy's public enemy number one. He's live from Los Angeles.

There'd be a lot of people listening right now, and I felt this pain when I moved to the country. It's just frustrating because you can never get a rental property. No, there's a real shortage. There's such a shortage. It's so competitive. And you turn up to, you know, viewing, and there's a million people there,

and usually when you like it, a million other people like it and then you miss out. Yeah, that's how it goes. Exactly. You try and bribe the agent and they go, I can't take a bribe. You're like, come on, loosen up. Like, I just couldn't do it. I couldn't kiss bum, you know.

Really? I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Oh, pucker up, baby. I will kiss whatever bum I need to. If it gets me the right house, I don't care. I'll sell myself. Yeah, you are a bit of an ass kisser. But it's interesting.

On One Roof, they released an article that's talking about, you know, different things that property managers are definitely doing these days which could hinder you from, like, getting the rental property. Okay. So this might be helpful for anyone listening who's struggling at the moment. And it talks about how property managers now will definitely delve deep, deep into your social media. Like they will get onto all types of platforms, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and they will stalk you to see what kind of a person you are. Are they looking at like lifestyle things to see if you're a party person?

Absolutely. So one person said that they were looking at different social media accounts of people and they said in one case they scrolled through the social media of one person and an agency decided to never ever allow this particular tenant into any of their properties. They got blacklisted from all their properties. From all of them. So I can just imagine the drinking, partying, photos, you know, it'd be getting crazy on

their socials. This is where my younger sister has it sorted because she runs a fake Instagram page. Yeah, see, that's smart. So she's got an Instagram page which is very wholesome. There's nothing extra happening on there whatsoever. It does make me think, why is she doing that? Why is she hiding? Then she has a fake Instagram page to throw you off the scent

so you think that's the real Instagram page. Who is your sister and why is she doing this? And then there's a real Instagram page that I've never ever had access to. So I don't know what goes on there. But you know what? She's never struggled to find a flat. Is that why she does it? No, I don't know why she does it. That's unusual. I'd like to get to the

bottom of that. But people who are running fake profiles, you know, like... I've never ever thought to run a fake profile. It's just a... You know that meme that went around recently where it's got your Facebook profile picture, your Instagram, your LinkedIn, how it shows the different personalities. You just have one

public one, which is very clean and wholesome, and that's the one you want to put out to the world. There's probably logic in it, especially with things like this, finding a flat, finding a job. If an employer goes, oh my gosh, this person is so clean cut, I want to hire them. Yeah, well, also if you're dating someone new and if their parents are on socials, you know, maybe want to clean it up a little bit. I think that's a good idea. There is that side of it too. Yeah, absolutely. I remember I lived with this girl.

Her name was Danielle and I moved into the flat with her and another guy and it's a little bit different to this but this is a good thing to remember. I moved into the flat with her and this other guy and she had two dogs. Yeah. When I moved into this flat and I was like oh they're so cute and you know not once did i even question that she wasn't allowed to have dogs in the flat not once i was like obviously if the dogs are here that means she's allowed to have dog friendly anyway i followed her on social media she used to post about her dogs quite a lot uh but i did notice

her account was private for a long time and I lived there for about six months and then she changed it and it went back to public. And within, no joke, two weeks, the real estate agency was around and they kicked us out of the flat. Because they went onto her social media and they were like, you have dogs here? And I was at the flat at the time and I was like, yeah, we're allowed, aren't we?

And they were like, no, you're not allowed. To be fair, that's not like they've made a judgment on her personality. They've gone, hey, you're breaking one of the fundamental rules of this house. But still the same, like if you want to get crazy, make sure your Instagram account is private. Yeah, right. Yeah. Yeah. Because I mean, it works the same way. Like obviously, you know, if you've got a landlord that you contact directly and you have direct contact with they can definitely follow you on social media and if you're having a party

yeah and you and they ask you they're like are you having a party you're like no and they're like i follow you on instagram i'm watching your instagram live right now you're literally doing goon of fortune on our clothes literally you've broken it i can see like it's crazy to think that in this day and age like you know so much information is out there for just anyone. But I wanted to ask people this afternoon on 0800 dials at M and it might not be particularly this kind of circumstance with like property, but it might be when did social media catch you out? When did you not realize that you probably shouldn't have been posting something? Maybe you got caught cheating or maybe you caught someone cheating. When did social media catch someone out?

Maybe it was you, maybe it was someone else. Ben and I were out with someone on the weekend who said, no social media of me today, guys. I'm on a sick day. Yeah, see, stuff like that. And I was like, oh, right. Are you sick? He goes, no, but I said I was sick.

So I could come here. So please don't put anything up on your Instagram story. See, interesting. I want to hear from those people. Are you sick? He goes, no, but I said I was sick. So I could come here. So please don't put anything up on your Instagram story. See? Interesting. I want to hear from those people. 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. Bree and Clint. Oh, these stories are getting juicy.

We've asked you this afternoon, when has social media caught you or someone else out? Because obviously that's something, you know, back in the day, they didn't have to worry about that. No. But you can't get away with most things these days because social media, you end up having a few too many lemonades and you've told the boss that you're sick, but you want to put a big party Instagram story up and you're like, woo, and he's like, I thought you were sick. Not even real-time stuff, like stuff you did five years ago

that you thought was legit. Lots of people, like Kevin Hart. Remember he got called out for tweets that he did 10 years ago that he doesn't believe now because homophobic yeah homophobic homophobic homophobic homophobic um yeah he doesn't believe it anymore but because he put it on social media it was still there lives forever yeah so we're asking you when have you been caught out uh holly's called through i know 800 dials at-ZM. Hi, Holly. Hi, Holly. Hi. How are you guys? Good. How are you?

I'm good, thanks. What's happened to you? Or did you catch someone else out? Yeah, so I was the one who was called out from my boss. Oh, no. I know. So I used to work on Saturdays when I was back in uni, and it was St. Patrick's Day.

And so on St. Patrick's Day, during the day, me and my family and our mates, we all come together and we do some clay shooting and things like that. And I always missed out on it because I was working. So this one year I thought, nah, I'm just going to pull a sticky. You know, everyone does it, so like why not? And so I even went through the effort. I put an alarm on at like 4 a.m. to text my boss and wake up and say, hey, look, I'm so sorry.

Smart. Sell the story, Holly. Sell the story. And so I sent her the text and then she replied when she woke up. She's like, all good. Like, it's no worries. I'll just get cover for you. It's not a problem. And so what I thought I'd do is I'd be like sneaky. And you know how you can block people on Snapchat, like certain people from your story? Yes, you can do it on Instagram story too, yeah.

Yeah, and so I thought I blocked her and I put an Instagram story up and she messaged me like replying to that story. And she's like, diarrhea, question mark, question mark. Oh, no. You've got to make sure. It's like calling someone back in the day on private number and you forgot to do it.

You have to double check. Okay, thank you, Holly. Someone's texted through and they said, my flatmates and I once had an inkling that one of our flatmates was seeing someone they shouldn't be, in brackets, our other mate's girlfriend. Anyways, we hit him up about it and he said nah, but then we checked Snapchat and there she was at our house on SnapMaps.

SnapMaps could catch so many people out. The police should use SnapMaps. They probably have in cases, I'd say. I wonder if they have. Absolutely they would have. It's definitely caught people out. There's other ones here that says, this one guy said he told his girlfriend that he was too busy at work

with meetings and stuff and she was like, why does it say on snap maps you're at the golf course then? Oh. Oh, you busted. You know your partner's already suspicious of you if they're checking your snap map? Don't be suspicious. Don't be suspicious. Don't be suspicious. Is there any more calls?

Who else should we go to? Oh, Anonymous. You want to talk to Anonymous? Anonymous 1 or Anonymous 2? Let's go Anonymous 1. Welcome to the show. How did social media catch you out? It didn't catch me out. Oh, did you catch someone else out?

Yeah, so I had a girl that used to work for me. Okay. She would always have Thursdays off, like always having Thursdays off. And somebody was like, oh, it's because she goes to quiz night every Wednesday and puts it on Facebook. So I jumped on her Facebook page and sure enough, there it is every Wednesday.

You should comment on it. She's a hung-up millionaire. Comment on the post and just go on Wednesday night. Hopefully see you at work tomorrow morning, Christian Mark. Well, the thing is I didn't know and then next thing you know I looked through the comments and she's like

yeah lol tell the boss every Thursday that I'm sick oh bastard and I'm like good work guys

what did you do yeah what did you do did you get rid of her um no I didn't get rid of her like that was a bit extreme. I just told her, like, if it happens again,

if you go to Quiz Night and you can't, you know, cut the cheese, then maybe this isn't the job for you or Quiz Night isn't for you. God, you sound like a really good boss. You handled that very well. Thanks, Anonymous. Let's go to Robert quickly. Robert, how did social media catch you out? G'day, Rob.

Hey, how are we? Good. What happened to you, mate? Well, my ex-wife, she was trying to sell an item on Trade Me, and the guy come around, and he didn't have the money, so he done some inside gardening. But as they were doing it, they recorded the whole thing and then put it on Facebook, and then I seen it,

and I said, you're cheating on me. She goes, no, I'm not. I said, well, what's this video with you guys doing inside gardening together? What do you mean? Why would they put it on Facebook and then I seen it and I said, you're cheating on me. She goes, no, I'm not. I said, well, what's this video with you guys doing inside gardening together? What do you mean? Why would they put it on Facebook? Did they accidentally put themselves indoor gardening on Facebook? Yep. So then my family's seen it, my aunties, uncles,

everybody in my whole family's seen it. Your wife. My ex-wife. She was selling something on Trade Me. The guy had no money. She goes, well, just do some gardening with me. Yeah. And then it went on Facebook and you found it.

This is wild. That is crazy. Like how bad are you at social media that you accidentally uploaded that video to your Facebook? I don't want to be really rude on Bree because she's Australian. I've got nothing wrong with them, but she didn't have any cookies. She was Australian. Oh, mate. Well, we're not all the exact same. I know. I'm fascinated by the story. What was the trade me item? It was my DVD player. Right! She accepted that

for... Oh my god, this story is friggin' amazing. Also, how awkward for her when that Facebook memory shows up each year. Yeah, very awkward. Can you imagine she's like angry reacts only. Keeping up to date with the news just became

a little easier. As at Herald's new podcast, the front page is your your short, sharp daily news podcast.

I tried to get Brie into it because she asked me to, or she alluded to that she'd like to. No, I never. Anyway, I couldn't get her in. That's why I've organised tomorrow your big comedy debut at... Brie's Killer Comedy Set. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. I've organised tomorrow your big comedy debut at... I'm going to have a heart attack because of this. Organised and promoted by me, which means it's my job to find the venue. And it's also your job to get people to come.

It is my job to get people to come. Which kind of makes me feel good because I know that you're not a professional promoter, so I don't mind if no one comes. Yeah, that's what you think. Behind the scenes, we've actually managed to secure a venue. And to be honest with you, Brie, we've had the venue all along.

If you'd been paying attention, you would know where you're performing tomorrow night. What are you talking about? There have been hints the whole way along. It's not at my flat, is it? No, it's not at your flat. Let's hope not. Let's reflect and see if there aren't any things here that trigger your memory.

A killer comedy set headlined by Brie. Yeah, it's going to be killer because we're going to have a heart attack and die. What a nightmare. Is it themed killer and with the haunting music die. What a nightmare. Is it themed killer and with the haunting music because it is a nightmare? Joke's so good, it's hard to die for. And then I'm going to die in the

ass at the end. Well, you'll be in the right place, put it that way. Can you do one of my favourite songs, obviously the song about the ghost. Have you heard it before, Clint? No, but can I say Slutty Ghost works perfectly. Is it a morning gig? No, it's in the

evening. Okay, what time is it? 7.30. Okay, perfect. Let's put a call through. No, if it is at Spookers, I'm out. You can all go EAD. Let's put a call through to the venue now. Nah. Nah. Nah.

Good afternoon, Davis Funerals. You're speaking with Karen. Hey, Karen. It's Bree and Clint calling from ZM. Hi. How are you? We're good. I've got Bree here, and we're just revealing to her the venue of Thursday night's killer comedy set.

Hi, Bree. We're looking forward to seeing you. Hi, Karen. So lovely to seeing you. Hi Karen, so lovely to meet you. Brie? You too. This is the first I've heard about this, Karen. You will be performing in the perfect venue. It's already got a hall.

It's already got seats. It's already got microphones. It's already ready for us to play. Are you taking the piss? You will be performing the first ever live comedy set at a funeral home. Well, at least, you know,

it's going to be a good venue because my set is going to die in the ass. You're used to that. Karen, can you come and do it with me? You're pretty funny. Karen has kindly offered up their funeral home,

which is in central Auckland. Oh, it looks beautiful. Davis Funeral Homes. It's actually on Dominion Road. At this point, I need to communicate everybody attending, because we are performing in a funeral home, we need to be respectful. So the dress code for everyone attending

will be black funeral attire. Just so we're being respectful. You know, just so we're being respectful. It kind of also works because we can also say goodbye to my comedy career after this. Karen, thank you once more for helping me as a promoter. I'm so sorry, Karen. I'm glad to secure the venue.

No problem. We're looking forward to it. There you go. We've got a venue, New Zealand. Brie will be performing at Davis Funeral Homes on Dominion Road in Auckland City tomorrow evening at 7.30 and you are more than welcome to join us. What a raging success. You know you're fired

after this. Brie's Killer Comedy Set. Brie and Clint. Just revealed Bree's killer comedy set is at Davis Funeral Homes. Tomorrow. Producer Ben said this is the first time this has been done. Yeah, I'm a revolutionary promoter with revolutionary ideas. Mate, stop giving yourself all these props.

The real task is going to be how the event plays out tomorrow night. That's all on you, girl. That's what I mean. I feel like you haven't thought about who you've booked as the main headline talent. No one blames Michael Chug for Elton John getting pneumonia. Who's Michael Chug? The guy who

organised the Elton John concert. What a good name. Chug, Chug, Chug. You know, he just got out onto the stage, then it's up to him. Tomorrow night, it's up to you. Once I get you there, it's up to you. Well, good luck to me. I'll build the Titanic, you sail it.

More like, I know where that was going, I will sink it. Speaking of travel, there's a good segue. This is interesting. With the outbreak of coronavirus, you're about good segue. This is interesting. With the outbreak of coronavirus, you're about to see some crazy cheap travel deals. We already saw Air New Zealand last week offering flights to Australia for the very nice price of $69. They've also been offering $9 flights around New Zealand. Which is craziness. Yeah. The new one that I've seen is an airline called AirAsiaX,

which I think is the budget arm of AirAsia, offering unlimited travel for $189. What's the catch? The catch is... What do you mean unlimited travel? Unlimited, are we talking for a year? Are we talking for a whole year? Yeah, 12 months of unlimited travel for $189.

There's not a catch. There's not a catch. You can only fly to their locations that AirAsiaX operates within, which is Australia, Japan, India, and Malaysia. So you'd have to get yourself from here to Australia. But from there, you can fly around as much as you want between Australia, Japan, India and Malaysia. Really? And that's a sign of how bad it is, how desperate these travel companies in particular

are going to get because they survive off having full planes. So even if they're only half full, they're losing millions of dollars. And it's not even that all of these places are coronavirus epicenters at the moment. It's just people are scared. So they're going, I don't want to go anywhere. Maybe I won't. Maybe I won't do my trip. Like your trip to Bali, are you going to do it? Well, I literally was talking about this last night and I was like, I think I want to hold off from booking any accommodation because we booked our flights, which I mean, you know, we can't get those back. But I'm like, we haven't booked accommodation yet. So maybe we should just hold off for a little bit.

Everyone's scared, right? But if you're not scared, $189, you can literally go as many times as you want. That's ridiculously cheap, even just to fly to one of those places. Yeah, that is crazy. Would you do it? No, I'm not going anywhere. No more coronaviruses on, get real. I'm staying in the safety of my own house, very near a new world,

so I can stay fully stocked on toilet paper. Let's be real. You've got a baby. You weren't going anywhere anyway. Yeah, that too. I just like to blame coronavirus. This is where you guys call us up. Bree and Clint. Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick. Nickname Origins. This is where you guys call us up.

You pretty much tell us what your nickname is and we try and guess the origin, where the nickname came from, how you got it, and the best story this afternoon will win themselves some mobile fuel. Let's start with Tina. Hey, Tina. Hi, Tina.

Hello. First, let's start with your nickname. What is it? T-Nuts. T- What is it? Teanuts. Teanuts. Teanuts. That's a good one. Okay.

Teanuts. Maybe she's just a big fan of nuts, pistachio, cashew, the salted nut. Maybe she's just a bit of a nutter. She is nuts. Yeah, maybe she's just nuts. You know, people, she's a bit crazy. They're like, Tina, cool your jets. You're a bit crazy.

I don't want it to be this, but it could just be it rolls off the tongue. Tina, tea nuts. Tea nuts. Maybe she loves peanut butter. Maybe I'm just spitballing stuff here. Maybe no person with nuts is safe around her. Maybe she has those fake plastic testicles hanging off the back of her car. That'll be it.

Tina, we're going to lock in. You have a fake pair of plastic testicles hanging off the back of her car. That'll be it. Tina, we're going to lock in. You have a fake pair of plastic testicles hanging off your car, and that's why they call you T-nuts. Oh, not quite. What is it, Tina? From falling out of a walnut tree. Even better. Okay, wait there.

Christy's here. Hey, Christy. Hi, Christy. Hi. What is your nickname? Lottl. Lottl. Oh, that's a hard one because it's not really, that's not a word, is it?

Lottl. I don't know, probably not. Yeah. Lottl. My mind goes to Axolotl. Axolotl, which is a Mexican walking fish. Yeah, so I'm imagining her crawling around eating little chunks of flaky meat. Maybe she kind of looks is a Mexican walking fish. Yeah, so I'm imagining her crawling around, eating little chunks of flaky meat.

Maybe she kind of looks like a Mexican walking fish. Maybe she loves the water. Maybe she's... Maybe, maybe... You don't mean to say... You don't mean to give us clues, but thank you. Christy, you're giving us hints. Yeah. Maybe she has a lot of water bottles.

Lottle. Lottle. Lottle. Maybe she's just... She's small, but they're saying it with a really fuck New Zealand accent. Lottle. Maybe it's something to she's small, but they're saying it with a really thock New Zealand accent. Lottle. Maybe it's something to do with her last name. I reckon we should lock that in.

Okay, Christy, is it something to do with your last name? No, it's not. What is it? So when I was little, my sisters told me I was adopted and my real name was Crystal Lottle. Oh my God. Classic gag from your siblings. Classic gag.

That's horrible. Classic bit of emotional trauma to inflict on a child. I like it. And shout out to Christy's siblings. We've all done it. One last nickname. We're going to go to Sarah. Sarah, what's your nickname?

Hi. Hi, what's your nickname? 09 Tuna Fish. 09 Tuna Fish. 09 Tuna Fish. How old are you, Sarah? I'm 10. Right, so this is an early nickname. She might have been born in 2009.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Maybe that's the name she had printed on the back of a jersey at school. Maybe she loves tuna. What else could it be? Swims like a fish. Yeah, she's a really good swimmer, really good at breaststroke or freestyle or something. Tuna fish. Tuna fish.

Tuna fish, tuna fish. Is it because you were born in the year 2009? Good swimmer, good swimmer. You're a good swimmer, eats a lot of tuna, and because of that you have tuna breath, and that's why they call you 09 tuna fish. Don't say that to Sarah. No, it's not. What was it, Sarah?

When I was three months ago I started getting into this YouTuber called 09 Sharkboy and he had a second account called 09 Tuna Fish and my friends would just start calling me that. It's way more simple than we thought. Okay, my favourite

nickname, thank you Sarah, my favourite one today is definitely... T-Nuts. T-Nuts? T-Nuts for me. She fell out of a walnut tree. I got mobile fuel for you, T-Nuts, well done. Thank you. Tina, can I ask, how big is a walnut tree? Oh, it was pretty big.

Walnut trees are pretty big. Bree and Clint. Bit of a funny story out today. Asking the question, well, I'm asking the question off the back of this. Did you hate your partner before you dated them? Maybe you had a vendetta out against them. Maybe you were arch nemesises. And then one day you realised you were actually connected and love blossomed.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. In fact, why don't you marry them? Why not? This is the exact case for a very famous couple, Sophie Turner from Game of Thrones and, of course, Joe Jonas from the Jonas Brothers. Yeah, right. A story out today saying that, you know, it wasn't always smooth sailing for them because Sophie Turner actually hated the Jonas Brothers for a long time.

Okay. Was she too cool for the Jonas Brothers or something? No. And the reason why she disliked all of the Jonas Brothers is actually wild. Okay. It's crazy. So back in the day when she was obviously a lot younger and when the jonas brothers were first breaking into the market when they were camp rocking yeah when

yeah when they were doing you know the early stuff uh there was a band um i believe from the uk i've never heard of them but they were a punk uh pop punk band uh called busted had you ever heard of them i remember busted yeahusted, yeah. They had... Around the same, similar time as Simple Plan. Yeah, they had this big hit called The Year 3000. So this is them and they released that, yeah, back in the 2000s and it was a big hit for them in the UK and they kind of made it pretty big and then they kind of broke up. The band kind of dispersed and Sophie Turner from the Game of Thrones,

huge fan of the band. Yeah. And if you're a big Jonas Brothers fan, you would know that they covered that song, the year 3000, on their debut album. Here it is. She said I've been through the year 3000. Literally sounds exactly the same. Doesn't it? 3000 on their debut album. Here it is. Literally sounds exactly the same.

Doesn't it? Yeah. Anyway, so she has come out and said that, yeah, she blamed the Jonas Brothers for years and years that busted her favourite band for breaking up. That is so interesting. Isn't it crazy? That she would then go on to marry a member of the jonas brothers i know like that is an incredible 180. yeah so she said she had like a real like thing about it where she was kind of like not don't want to meet

them don't want to know them don't want a bar of them yeah but turns out the band busted already broke up before the jonas brothers released released that redo of their song. You've got to give it to Joe Jonas for not marrying a fan. Yeah, well, I mean, he won a Ropa. He's literally gone in the complete opposite direction. He's gone, I want to find someone who hates us, and that's the person that I'll make my wife. Exactly.

And apparently when they first met, she was like, nah, not keen, and then they hit it off straight away. Yeah. Yeah. And now they're in love and, you know, it's all good. Good for them. they first met she was like nah not keen and then they hit it off straight away yeah yeah and now that and now they're in love and you know it's all it's all good good for them so technically uh she hated her partner before she uh got together with him yeah i want to ask people that exact question someone from busted is definitely reading the story going are you telling me i had the chance to marry sophie turner from game of thrones well she the band. Who knows if she was in love with one of them?

We don't know. Yeah, she'll marry the band she hates. What would she have done for the band she likes, you know? Yeah, well, it's true. I wanted to know from people listening this afternoon, has this happened to you? Are you dating someone or did you date someone that at first you may not have liked very much

or you hated them for some reason. Yeah. I want to know. 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. Bree and Clint. Story out today that says Sophie Turner from Game of Thrones who is married to Joe Jonas, part of the Jonas Brothers, actually hated all of the Jonas Brothers back in the day,

didn't like any of them, and it was for a weird reason. She thought that the Jonas Brothers broke up her favourite band called Busted because they redid a song of theirs. It was all very, you know, very kind of... She must have been a teenager. Obviously. And then she was like, nah. But when she got older, apparently she was like, nah,

don't want to meet him, don't want to bar of him. And then they met and they hit it off and now they're in love and they're married and, you know, it's all good. It usually happens the other way around. You hate someone after being in a relationship with them. Yeah, well, hopefully not. But we've asked you the question this afternoon on 0800DIALZM.

Did you hate your partner before you dated them? Let's go to, there's so many calls on this and so many texts. I didn't realise it was actually so common. Yeah, right. Let's go to Amy first. Hi, Amy. No, no, Amy. No, Amy's gone.

Okay, let's go to Richie. Hi, Richie. Hey, guys. Tell us what happened to you. Are you currently dating the person that you hated at first? So it was my wife, my current wife. Yeah. Before we met, she'd seen my car at my uncle's place.

She used to go to swimming with my auntie, and she thought I was a wanker, hated me, thought, oh, what a boy race that. And we've now been together 21 years. Whoa. She hated you because of your car. Yeah, I had a little Honda Integra, potted up, big wheels, big speakers.

Did you have the NOS? Nah. Oh, no NOS. This was back in the 90s. Oh, right. Did you have the sub and the tweeters, crank and Ritchie? I had four 1200 subs in the boots. Oh, right. Did you have the sub in the tweeters, Crank and Richie? I had 412 and subs in the boot.

She used to hate it. Oh, my God. Damn. Wait, so you're saying she hated you, but did you ever dislike her? No. Oh. Well, congratulations on such a long and enduring marriage built on such a deep hatred, Richie. Thanks for your call. That's very cute, Richie.

Let's go to Melissa. Hi, Mel. Hello. Tell us, what's the go? Did you hate your current boyfriend? Yeah, I don't know. I just didn't like him very much when I first met him. So where did you first meet,

and what made you think, oh, no, I don't like this bloke? I don't know. We met at work and when he came in for his interview, I was just like, nah, don't like him. Didn't like him for probably the first year. For real? And what changed it? What was the tipping point where you went from not liking to actually being quite interested? I'm not really sure.

You sound very blasé towards him even now Are you guys happy? Yeah, we're getting married next Friday Oh, well, you must like him a little bit then Are you happy about that? Yes, I am Okay, sweet Cough once

Let's take one more call Vicky, hello Hello This has happened to you as well You hated your current partner Yes, I did And why? Well, just the way he was

I thought he was an arrogant son of a Son of a gun And then it took Another five years For me to be with him And we've been together 12 going on 13 years now Congratulations Wait so did you get together

And then it took five When you were together Did it take five years for you to like him Or did it take five years until you dated him I didn't want a bar of him I just did not want a bar of him Why was he still in your life Someone you didn't like so much How did he remain in your life for five years until you dated him. I didn't want a bar of him. I just did not want a bar of him. Why was he still in your life? Someone you didn't like so much. How did he remain

in your life for five years? Well, he was a friend of my cousin's and I came up to Auckland on holiday. Yeah. And I met him then. He was with someone. I was with someone. Okay. But because of my cousin, we were sort of all friends.

He would come down, go straight to business. He would stay at our place. He got friends with my partner. Sounds like a bad smell, Vicky. Yeah, he just lingered until I grew on you. Isn't it incredible how even when you, like if you hate someone, you still feel something towards

them. There's something about that person that means they've got under your skin and they're actually relevant to you. Because I think the worst thing is that you just don't care about them at all because then they have zero impact on you well yeah that means you really just don't want a barman but to be honest i don't think i've ever hooked up with someone that i hate really like i can't remember oh i don't know has it fueled me to go that far i don't think so i've never like seen someone in a bar and you're like man you, you're a piece of... What? Yeah. Nah.

Get over here. I think, to be honest, I don't hate many people. Come to mama. So it's free game in my world. Yeah, right. Well, take stock on your own relationships in your life, I reckon. Have a look around your social circle. Go, who do you not like?

Slice of Heaven. Slice of Heaven. Schmock and a pancake. The man who even, I don't know, 50 years after he started. He's such a cute little man, isn't he? He was one of the headliners of Rhythm and Vines last year. Was he? Yeah. Because he's Dave goddamn Dobbin. Because that's back in man, isn't he? He was one of the headliners of Rhythm and Vines last year. Was he? Yeah.

Because he's Dave goddamn Dobbin. Because that's back in now, isn't it? What? Where people just love to reminisce. Old school. And old school is the best. Yeah. Can you imagine the buzz that Dave must get from playing to people

who wouldn't have even been born when those songs came out? I know. It would have made you feel truly timeless. It'd be crazy. Who do you reckon, so I can really get like my head around, who's like the equivalent for us Aussies? John Farnham. John Farnham is the equivalent, right?

Yeah. That's our... Or Jimmy Barnes. Or Jimmy Barnes is a good, yeah, equivalent for Dave Dobbin. Yeah. Who else have you got though that's like... Jordan Luck from The Exponent. Oh yeah.

He's the guy who sings Victoria and Why Does Love Do This To Me. Who's the band that sings, because I went to a wedding a couple of weekends ago and it was like literally being at a Kiwi wedding and I was like, oh, this is like the New Zealand version of The Voice. Is it a beers song? Yeah. It's Dave Dobbin. Get yourself another.

Is that right? It's Dave Dobbin and his band Bliss. Boom. They're dudes. Yeah. See, that is like the equivalent of The Voice by John Farnham in New Zealand. If you just joined us on The Sound,

it's great to have you along. We're reminiscing about hits of the late 70s and early 80s. How's your hip? Hope it's well. Brie and Clint. No. No. The New Zealand International Comedy Festival

is back for 2020. It's very exciting. ZM's proud to be supporting the whole festival. I had high hopes of getting Bree, who's an aspiring stand-up comedian, into the comedy festival. I've literally done it once. And they said no. So instead, we launched this.

Bree's Killer Comedy Set. I can't take any more surprises. I haven't done any preparation for tomorrow night I'm already stressing so badly what else have you got? as the promoter I can't prepare the set for you I can only prepare the venue, the crowd

the marketing, the hype I can do the hype it's like a sausage sizzle I do the sizzle, you need to bring the sausage can you get me backup dancers? too late, I've got you backup comedians Eli Mathewson's going to be performing sausage sizzle. I do the sizzle. You need to bring the sausage. Can you get me backup dancers? Too late. I've got you backup comedians. Eli Mathewson's going to be performing.

I've got you Laura Daniel and Joseph Moore who are two hearts. They're amazing, but they're not going to be on stage when I'm bombing is what I'm saying. If I had some backup dancers, they could distract. Look, we are light on attendees and I've decided that what this gig needs is a good poster for our marketing.

Because in 2020, that's the way to market something is a poster. Yeah, yeah. Well, a poster can go on Instagram. True. A poster can go on lampposts. It's the marketing for the future. Yeah.

So for Breeze Killer comedy set, I'd like to show you first before it goes out to market, the official poster. Why do I have a feeling, I haven't opened it yet, why do I have a feeling that a particular photo of me from Women's Day is going to be featured on

this poster? Would I? Would I do that? Yes, you would! Would I do that? I knew it Please describe This is radio I need you to use your words Please describe what you see

Yes, it is the classic 2018 Women's Day photo shoot of me In a red turtleneck In a white pump With a big hoop earring I look like I'm taking six kids To soccer practice It actually matches quite well With the colours I'm not going to lie I look like I'm taking six kids to soccer practice.

It actually matches quite well with the colours. I'm not going to lie. You look like Colonel Sanders' wife. Who's coming to see that? Actually, to be honest, it's quite comical, so it might get bums on seats. Yeah. We have an alternative poster.

Oh, no. I love how you've got featuring comedians in the corner. Yeah, they're over there. Putting the fun back in funeral. You idiot. This is the other option that we could have done. I look like a zombie. Yeah, that's the idea.

It's quite cool. We've done you as a corpse. Oh, I'm in a coffin. Yeah, you're in a coffin because we're doing it at a funeral home. Yeah, I don't know how I feel about that. I think I'd rather this one. I never thought I'd say that. I'd rather the Women's Day photo. Both posters are being released on our social media as we speak.

You can actually see them right now on our Facebook and our Instagram. Are people voting? Yeah, please vote. As if this one's not going to get picked. The Women's Day photo is going to haunt me for the next 20 years. She's sitting side saddle in a pair of white capris. It's the best photo shoot that's ever happened. And to be honest, the capris are so tight,

they look like tights. Bree's killer comedy set happens tomorrow at Davey's funeral home, and there's still some spaces to come. It's at 7 o'clock in Auckland on Dominion Road, and the full details are on our Facebook page too. What a joke, honestly.
