Kia ora, good evening, and welcome to the podcast. Although you might be listening to this at a different time of day, we don't know. That's the beauty of podcasting. It's not live. Is that the beauty of it? I don't know. I think the beauty of it is you can swear. You don't need to, though.

But you can. But you don't need to. But if you want to, you can. But it's not necessary. Shit. Okay. You can't see this, obviously, but I've come to work in a new shirt today. And the first thing, do you remember the word you used to describe it when I walked in the door?

So I hadn't seen Brie all day and it wasn't, there was no, hi, how are you? There was no, oh, hey Clint, good to see you. How did you greet me today? I said, well, that's a Larry shirt. That's a Larry shirt. I'm becoming slowly, I'm slowly becoming my mother so what does leery mean i'm still trying to decipher whether that's a compliment or not means like a loud shirt right so not a compliment no

means like party shirt yeah but you're like that's a leery like, oh, that's a leery shirt. No, I said that's a leery shirt. Yeah. In that tone. Okay. All right. Well, I'm just trying to figure out. So for the people listening, because it's very visual.

Yeah, but it's very visual. It looks like a shirt, like a guy in Miami Beach who probably would be wearing a lot of gold chains and probably real bit sweaty. Is this still a compliment? Pitbull.

Think of something Pitbull would wear. It's got tropical fish on it. Yeah. Yeah. They're Mexican fighting fish. Do you know why I'm wearing this shirt today? Because you got dressed in the dark? No.

Close to. Because we're still not able to live in our house at the moment. Yeah. I've run out of clean clothes in my suitcase. So I wore a dirty T-shirt to the mall this morning and bought a clean shirt to wear to work. Right. So I'm literally living straight off the clothing rack.

So you literally made that choice out of thousands of shirts then. For the record, I quite like the shirt. I'm happy with the shirt. Hey, I didn't say I didn't like it. And I don't care what you think, I don't care what you think. I don't care what you think. Oh, you go, girl. I don't care what anybody thinks.

Yeah. That's why I have this moustache as well. Here's today's podcast, everybody. Enjoy. Kia ora. Good afternoon, New Zealand. Welcome to the show, Brie and Clint Kia ora, good afternoon New Zealand. Welcome to the show, Brie and Clint. Hello.

Sorry, pulled my headphones out. Good start. It's okay, occupational hazard, mate. Everyone does it sometimes. These things happen. These things happen. Hey, you didn't ask, but I know you want to ask. Yes, I have exercised for the second day in a row. Did you do another day?

I did two days. I'm pretty much an athlete. Why? It's a great question. Look, I'm not exercise adverse. Quite the opposite. I think it's great for physical and mental health. It's just this is such a radical change of lifestyle for you

to go from zero exercise in 2019 whatsoever to two days in a row. There must be a reason. Are you seeing somebody? No, but we have a photo shoot next week. Oh, we do. Damn it. And I just, yeah, I need to really sort this situation out.

And I also want to bond a little bit more with Producer Ben. Oh, you and Ben are going together. Producer Ben and I have been working out together. Nothing motivates you to go to the gym and do some fitness like an impending photo of yourself that's going to last a long time. I just got a new phone that's really got a really high def camera in it and I keep opening

it with the front facing camera on and you know when you're lying on the couch and your double chin's hanging out, nothing makes you want to go to the gym more than that as well. Yeah, well what about that photo of me eating that massive cream-filled donut? That's what it is. I knew there was a reason you were exercising so hard. Those were great photos. Bree made us take the photos down so you can't see them anymore.

You can see the video, though, which is just as good. My favourite part of the class this morning, we were at F45 in Grey Lynn and Ben goes, What are all these exercises? Do they think I'm a dancer? No, mate. Nobody thinks you're a dancer. Today on the show, we have two chances to win ZM's Secret Sound. It's still at

$20,000. Not sure if we're getting a clue or not today, but I will give you all the guesses that have already happened today slightly later in the show so you can have an informed guess if you can get through at 4 o'clock. Yeah, that'll be good. Also up next, I mean it's the age old question of what don't you know how to do?

I mean Clint, you yourself, you know everything. That's true. But there's some people in life like me, I'm nearly 30, I don't know how to do a lot of things. I knew that. I knew you would. I'll't know how to do a lot of things. I knew that. I knew you would. I'll tell you about a story, and these two girls, very old, don't know how to do a particular thing.

Okay, Bree and Clint, sit in. Bree and Clint on Zit Im. There's two friends that are going viral on social media at the moment after they documented their flat tire experience yesterday on Instagram. Oh yeah. So it was two girls, they're around 25 and they got a flat tire in a car park and they documented their journey. So they realized that they didn't know how to change a tire and then they messaged their dad to come and change it. Classic. He was at work so he couldn't get there.

Then they messaged their mum. She couldn't do it. She was at work and then they eventually had to call roadside assistance, which they didn't have. So then I'm pretty sure a stranger ended up helping them. Do you know how to change a tyre? I do. Yeah.

I can see their dad being peeved off at them for not knowing. Your dad would be peeved off at you, right? He would. My dad. In the text, the dad actually says, I told you to get your tyres checked last week. Here's an alternate theory, though. It's the dad's fault for not teaching them how to change a tyre. He should have told them, yeah.

I mean, I'm not a dad yet, but if you don't want to be called out to change your daughter's tyre, do the right thing. Make sure she knows how to change a tyre. It's one of those punishing life skills that you very rarely need. Yeah, it's super rare. But when you need it, you need to know it. You know the biggest, I think, drama these days with changing a tyre is that a lot of cars have the air gun put the bolts onto the...

Yeah, and have you ever tried to get those off with one of those hand jacks? tyre is that a lot of cars have the air gun put the bolts onto the... Yeah. And have you ever tried to get those off with one of those hand jacks? Yeah, man. I'm a strong dude. Yeah, I'm fine. Have you changed a tyre before? Of course. All joking aside, of course I've changed a tyre. Okay, good.

So you know how to change a tyre? I know how to change a tyre. Yeah. Right. So you will know how to change one because we've got it set up outside? I could check. Yeah. Good, because we haven got it set up outside? I could, yeah. Good, because we haven't done that. I was going to say, what kind of trap is this?

Are you still working at a gas station? Oh, yeah. Well, you would know. You would know. But, I mean, that's not really. I love that this is what we're bragging about too. The most mundane crap. Yeah, man, I can change a tyre.

Well, not everyone can. Not everyone can change a tyre. Well, these girls clearly. These girls couldn't. But I thought I'd put it out there this afternoon. How old are you and what don't you know how to do? Oh, yeah, okay. I mean, changing a tyre is a hard one because I think it's 50-50.

Some people do, some people don't. But there'll be things out there that people don't know how to do and they're at the age where they should know. I want to share one about you, actually. Me? Yeah. What don't I know how to do and they're at the age where they should know. Like I want to share one about you actually. Me? Yeah. What don't I know how to do? Clinton Roberts doesn't know.

How old are you? 32. He's 32 and he doesn't know he's right from his left. Oh, no, that's a disability. That's different. I'm spatially unaware. No, that's not. That's different. No, no, that's a disability. That's different. I'm spatially unaware. No, that's not. That's different.

No. No, I do know left and right. I know left and right because I know how to tell. When I need to go left or right, I raise both of my hands in an L formation. And whichever L is the right way around, that's left. I know left from right. I just have to check. Alarming.

No, no. That is alarming. That's different. You want like a grown-ass man who doesn't know how to use the washing machine. Also doesn't know they're right from left. Again, that's a disability and I deserve special parking. You can call us on 0800-DIAL-ZM or you can text us on 9696. How old are you?

And you should know how to do something, but you don't know how to do it. Bree and Clint on Zitim. How old are you and what don't you know how to do? Which you probably should. Yeah. You know? Yeah. You're probably at the age where you should know how to do this thing,

but you probably don't. 0800 dial Zitim. Hi, Cody. Yep. What don't you know how to do? And actually, how old are you first? 27. 27. And what don't you know how to do? Actually, how old are you first? 27. 27.

And what don't you know how to do? So I don't know how to do my taxes. And it wouldn't really be a problem apart from the fact I'm self-employed. Ah, there you go. Oh, no. Cody, are you calling us from your way to prison? No, not this time. But I do have to wing it every month.

That's a fair one. It is fair, but it's fairly important for Cody, like it's fairly serious. But I wouldn't be embarrassed about that, Cody. I'm pretty sure not many people would know how to do that. What do you do for a job, Cody? I'm a self-employed contractor, so I sort of

mess around with everything, but it's probably lucky I've got my parents to sort of help me out. They know their way around the tax system. I thought he was going to say, I'm an accountant. No, that'd be even better, wouldn't it? That'd be way worse. That would be even better. Hayden, good afternoon.

Welcome to the show. What do you not know how to... Hang on, how old are you first? Yeah, how old are you? 18. And what don't you know how to do? Tell the time on the watch. Wait, is it analogue or digital?

With the hands. So it's analogue. It's analogue, Hayden. Oh, bless you. Why don't you know? I don't get told. Hey, Hayden, to make you feel better, someone on the text machine has said,

I'm 28 and I don't know how to tell an analogue clock. They reckon it's a real problem with, like, our generation because we only look at time on our phones. Not a real big gold one. Yeah. But wait, so did someone give you the watch or you bought it even though you... No, I bought it because it's flesh.

So you got a watch just for looks. I like Hayden's style. No, that's good. No, that's good. Kelly, hello. Welcome to the show. Hello. How old are you, Kelly, first?

I'm 18. And what don't you know how to do? I don't know how to iron my chef's uniform. Oh, so you don't know how to iron? I mean, 18. I think that's okay. No, it's not because she has to wear a uniform to work every day. So who irons

your uniform for you? My mum irons my chef's uniform every day for work. You know how to iron it. You're just doing that play dumb thing where you pretend

you can't do it so your mum will do it for you. I've never ironed a piece of clothing. There you go. How have you never ironed a piece of clothing? I've never ironed

until last week. You don't need to. What do you mean you don't need to? Don't you own shirts or anything? I mean, yes, but, you know, there's... You know what you do? You put it in the shower, you put the shower on real hot,

and it steams it. Last one, Matt. G'day, how are you? I'm all right. You've got some advice for us? I've got a little bit of advice for your spatial awareness. Oh, the fact I can't tell left and right? Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, what is it? I've had three people come through my life that I've called this tip to, and all three of them appear to still be able to, off the top of their head straight away, say left or right. That's my dream. That's the ultimate skill for me. Okay, you've just got to remember you drive on the left-hand side of the road and you sit on the right-hand seat. Yeah. Now, you've just got to remember you drive on the left-hand side of the road and you sit on the right-hand seat.

Yeah. Now, you've just got to think about that every once in a while. Think about it and pretty soon you'll get your left and your right. How is it... Yeah, okay. How is that easier than just looking at my hands

and seeing which one has the L on it? Trust me, Matt. I just tried to give him a tip. It's a lost cause. Nah, nah. Using your hands, if you think of it in your head, it comes to you a lot quicker.

All right, thanks for believing in me, Matt. You're literally a road hazard. Bree and Clint on Zit-In. Let's get some Spy. Live from Hollywood with our man on the ground, Dean McCarthy. Spy.co.nz Now, I have gotten word Dean is at the airport and he's just dropped a drink in his lap

and he's about to get on a flight for 14 hours. How's things, Dean? So this is the phone ring. I'm like, oh, I jumped and my whole drink landed in my lap. My entire crutch wet, just drenched. Wow, that's a juicy story in itself. That's an image. Yeah. Hey, tell us about this R. Wow, that's a juicy story in itself. That's an image. Yeah.

Hey, tell us about this R. Kelly interview that's gone down overnight where R. Kelly has just absolutely lost the plot. Oh, my goodness. He certainly has the best way to put it. He was getting interviewed by Gayle King. You know, you'd know her. She's Oprah Winfrey's best. Gayle King works on CBS Breakfast Show.

Huge in America, she is. She got the exclusive sit-down with R. Kelly, and she held herself very well as he literally explodes in front of her. He yelled. He's jumping up and down. She sat there with so much control. She later said that she never felt like he was going to, you know, assault her or anything, but he was literally playing off his brain.

A couple of things she said that triggered him off. She said, have you ever done anything illegal with women? He said, no. And she asked, have you ever had done something to anyone underage? And he said, no. And she's like, well, you know, there's videos that are going around. So he just, all of it built up and you've got to go online today and check it out

because it's just very, very frightening how he reacts. He's like hitting his chest and crying and screaming. Like, crazy. We've actually got a little clip of it here. Check this out. How stupid would I be to do that? I didn't say you were holding...

That's stupid, guys. Is this camera on me? Yes, it's on you. That's stupid. Yeah, crazy. Oh, my God. It is the most bizarre story and it keeps getting weirder. The full interview is going to be just crazy.

Taylor Swift's opened up about getting trolled by the Kardashians and how it wasn't really that fun for her, right? Oh, this is really interesting. She's never spoken about this, but Taylor Swift has just covered Elle magazine. She talks about the 30 things she learned before she turned 30. One of them was around being trolled by Kim Kardashian. You might recall Kim Kardashian posted a video

where she filmed a conversation between Taylor and Kanye West when they were on the phone together. You might remember that. Anyway, all of the Kardashian fans turned on Taylor Swift and would put snake emojis on all of her photos on social media and they called her the snake. Taylor said that was the lowest point in her life. She was getting thousands of mean

tweets, snake emojis and all this hate from Kardashian fans. But she said from it came one of her greatest new skills, which is to laugh it off. And if you went to the Taylor Swift Reputation Tour, you would have seen a massive blow-up snake. That was her laughing off the snake

emojis and being called a snake by Kim Kardashian. Turn it into something for yourself. She also knows how to turn a headline. Her and Kim are the best at this, grabbing stories and turning them into things that go on for ages. Not saying anything other than that, just that she knows how to work a story. Okay, Dean, you have a great flight, a safe trip back to LA.

It was great to see you here in New Zealand, and we'll talk to you next week. Bye, Dean. I love it. Bye, guys. Spice, thanks to One Roof. The One Roof Property Report is out now and you can check it out

at oneroof.co.nz. Today in Bali, in Indonesia, they're observing their new year. I think you pronounce it Naipi. That's how you say it. It's a big sacred festival

and the day in Bali today is a day of silence. So this is an interesting concept that I think we should adopt here in New Zealand. I thought you said, I thought you were going to say here on the show. Oh, no. Well, that's a good option, too. I'll tell you what happens on the day of silence because it sounds very good to me. Have you been to Bali?

No, I haven't. Right. No. Have you? Yes, once. I'm an Aussie, of course. I've been to Bali. Bali for you guys is like, what's the equivalent here?

It's like Australia. No. No, someone told me. Fiji? No, it starts with T. It's the island. Tahiti? No.

It's beautiful. Yeah. Tauranga? No. Tauranga is not an island. No, but it sounds like that. Okay. Producer Ben, do you know?

No, no, I know what you're talking about. Someone on the text machine, help me out. Okay. They will know what I'm talking about. Bali to Australia is like what with a T to New Zealand. That's what we're trying to answer. Yes, and it's an island and you can fly there very shortly from New Zealand. Okay.

I feel like... Oh, no. Someone's got it on the text machine. Rarotonga? That's what I was thinking. Cool. Yeah, no worries. Everyone was saying Tonga because I said tea,

but no, my brain is dumb. But thank you on the text machine, someone who was reading my mind. Do you want to know what National Day of Silence in Bali entails? Well, I'm guessing silence. They go hard. The airport is closed for 24 hours. No flights in, no flights out.

No one goes to work. Literally no one goes to work. No cars on the road. All the TV and radio stations are turned off for the day. Anything that makes noise like that, gone. are turned off for the day. Anything that makes noise like that, gone, none of that for the day. And they turn the internet off. How do they do that?

They have a deal with the telecos, like your Vodafones, your Sparks, all of those, and for the day they turn it off. I don't know how safe that is, but that's what they do. It's part of it. Wow. Yeah. So that's the only...

As Owen Wilson would say, wow. The only downside I can see... Wow. ...to that situation is there's no internet. So you get a day off work and you get to stay home... What do you do? ...and you can't watch Netflix. You do nothing.

That's the idea of the day. You can still go to those pool parties That they have in Bali No you can't No You can't go anywhere No because it's a day of silence You're meant to stay home and do nothing

Yeah but I can still drink in silence Cool I don't know if that's the idea of the day But uh Brie and Clint on ZM Milestone for me Like life milestone this weekend I'm going to my first ever second wedding.

Okay. What do you mean though? So this is the first time I will have been to someone's wedding twice. Right. So someone's getting married for a second time and you went to the first wedding and you're still invited to the second one. There it is. Right.

That's what it is. I don't know if that's a milestone. No, it is a milestone. Because you've reached that part of don't know if that's a milestone. No, it is a milestone because you've reached that part of your life where people are having, because you go, you go, okay, cool.

It's 21st season. And then you go, oh, it's wedding. It's the wedding part of your life. And then it's the baby part. Now you're in divorced and getting remarried. There it is.

Yes. Yes. It's a life milestone. Like you have to, you have to have been around for at least a little bit to be onto your second wedding, right? Very, very good friend of mine is marrying the true love of his life this weekend.

They've got beautiful babies as well. But yeah, it'll be the second time for him. I'm emceeing the wedding. So wait, how old were you when you went to his first wedding? I think I was like 25 maybe. Okay, right. And now we're 32. And here's another question. Did you emcee that wedding? No think I was like 25 maybe. And now we're 32. And here's another question. Did you MC

that wedding? No, I didn't. So I've been promoted. Well, I guess you can't really ask the MC from the first wedding to MC the second wedding because I mean that's just so much material you give to the MC already. That's exactly what it is. And you don't want him to be lazy and reuse

the original speech. He just reuses all the same jokes. But he's done a shit job and he hasn't changed the names out. And he calls the new wife the old wife's name. Can you imagine? Hey, you've cursed yourself now. Like that episode of Friends when Ross calls the new wife Rachel. See, these are all pitfalls.

These are all ideas that I wish I hadn't said out loud If you're a true Friends fan You'll know what her name was You can ask me what the first wife's name was I was like girl do not even go there That is not a conversation to have What was the first friend's wife's name? What was Ross' wife's name

That he called Rachel at the altar? Rose? No Damn it, Emily! It was Emily. Cool. Ding, ding. Good work, me. Two weddings, like your second wedding.

There's a lot of people in life who would get married for a second time. Megan's had her second wedding. Yes. I went to her first one. Didn't go to the second one. She didn't go to your second one. She didn't go to my first one. She might come to my second one.

She might. Here's hoping there isn't one. I'll wait 100 dials at him this afternoon. I want to hear from people who think a second wedding is nothing. We want to know, do you know someone who's been married multiple times? We need more than two. It has to be more than two. It has to be three and above.

And maybe it's you. Maybe after your fifth wedding, you've finally found the one. And also, how are you getting all these people to marry you? Can you please share that with me? And also, how much money have you spent on weddings? Like, come on. I mean, let's talk Elizabeth Taylor. You know how many times she got married?

No. Eight. Eight times? Wouldn't you give up? Wouldn't you go, well, marriage is not for me. I reckon I'd give up after four. She never lost hope. Or maybe she just loves weddings.

Good point. That's the one thing I'm gutted about is that I'll never get to have another wedding because it's such a good party. You never know, mate. It could happen. Are you addicted to weddings? How many times have you been married or someone you know? Or you might know someone.

You can text us on 9696 or you can call us on 0800 dial ZM. This is Ariana Grande in Seven Rings. Oh, how appropriate. Speaking of Seven Rings. Brie and Clint, ZM. Yeah. Brie and Clint on ZM. Question for you this afternoon on 0800 dial ZM.

How many times you been married? Or how many weddings have you been to for somebody that you know? The same person. Yeah, I'm off to my first, second wedding this weekend. Very good friend of mine marrying his beautiful forever wife. Yeah, who was hotter, his first or his second wife? Oh, clearly his second wife. Good answer.

That was a trick question. That was a trap. All-round cooler person too, so I'm excited. I'm the MC and there will be no second wedding jokes. Which is tough because... You can't do one. You have to do one. You've got to do one.

But it's got to be expertly crafted. Yeah, or else it's the elephant in the room. I say get it out of the way early. I know what I'll do. I know what I'll do. I'll have a couple of beers and I'll go, this is better than the first wedding. Is that good?

No, you should say, what's his name? Oh, I can't say his name. You should say his name's Tom. Hey, Tom! Cheers for the drinks. Another time. Thanks for round two. Thanks for round two. We want to know, though, how many times have you been married or someone you know? Hi Jack.

Hi. How many times Jack? Well, there's two actually. The first person, my great grandmother was married six times. Whoa! And then my grandmother is five. Hang on. God, wait. So, and that's her daughter, is it?

Your great grandmother's daughter? Yes. So it's in the family. Wait, so your great-grandma's the first one? Yeah. And she would have lived in a time, let's be real, where it was quite unusual to get divorced. Yeah, totally. Right? Yeah, she was married first time at 18.

Yeah. And in the most recent time, she was 82. Whoa, that's awesome. Get it, girl. Okay. That's amazing. Cool. Okay, we're having another conversation at the same time. That's awesome. Get it, girl. Okay. That's amazing. Cool. And...

Okay, we're having another conversation at the same time. That's cool. No worries. What about your mum? How many times she married? Once. Once. Is that your mum in the background saying...

Yeah. Yeah, Jack's mum. You better say once. Hey, guess what, guys? What? What's that, mum? My mother was so clever that I was conceived in one marriage and born in another. That's less than a nine-month turnaround.

I know. She must have been like some fast talker. Oh, yeah. Did you get to attend? I think it was called annulment. Annulment. Yeah. God, you've got...

That's unbelievable. You would have no inheritance left because she would have spent it all on weddings, right? Pretty much. Yeah, literally. Okay, thanks, Jack and Mum. What an interesting family. That was a nice two-way phone call. Vanessa, how many times has your stepmum been married?

So, my stepmum's been married five times, well, four times before she met my dad. Right. And then my dad and her got married and then before my dad actually passed away, she cheated on him and is now with the guy that she cheated on my dad with. And was he one of the previous four marriages? No, he was... She offered himself to my dad at high school marriages? No, he was like high, they were, she

offered himself to my dad at high school and he turned her down and then my step mum, her mum was at the rest home where I used to work. Yeah. This is getting very complex.

Vanessa, is your step mum going to have marriage number six with the guy that she cheated on your dad with? Possibly. And will you attend? No, because I actually didn't attend my dad's wedding to her. Because you don't like her? That's dead right.

Why do you still call her your step-mum? Because it's just easy to say that she's my step-mum because I don't really want to put her name on radio. Vanessa could smell a rat early. I've got an idea for you, though. How about evil step-mother? Well, yes. Is that a good term?

Is that a better term for it? Yeah. I just pictured Cruella de Vil for some reason. She actually looked a bit like her, too. No way. I think I'm a psychic. I was about to

say I picture the lady from 101 Dalmatians but it's the same lady. Same lady. It is, yes. Amazing.

There you go New Zealand. Hey, love is love and the more weddings you have the more photos you get and the more chances

you get to wear a pretty dress so don't limit yourself to one. That's what I say. I'm just going to be happy if I can find anyone.

Brie and Clint, next on the show. It was sad, wasn't it? Yes, it was quite. That's why I moved along quite quickly. Brie and Clint on ZM. Yesterday, Brie brought you the news that the reason millennials can't buy houses is because of Tinder. That's what they're saying. Yeah, they're saying we've got too many dating options.

And so we're just dating around, date, date, date, spending our money on dates and not settling down to buy a house. Yeah, so people aren't settling in their 20s, they're waiting until in their 30s. Tinder is copping it at the moment because today in the news, Tinder is being blamed for an outbreak of syphilis. You say syphilis or thiphilis? Syphilis? Syphilis? Syphilis.

I think it's phiphilis. I think it's thiphysis. You know, the STD. The STI. Excuse me, STI. What's the difference? Sexually transmitted infection. It's the more politically correct term.

Right. Because we don't want to call it a disease anymore. We don't want you to be stigmatised if you've got it. We do want you to get treated. But if you have syphilis. You seem to know a lot about it. I don't, no. I've never actually had one.

That's good to know. An STI. Neither. No. Have you not? No. What? Why?

What? I'm just asking. Why do you ask it like that? Well, no. Okay. Have you not? Have you not? That sounds so ingenious.

Have you not? Have you? No, I haven't. Thank you very not? Have you? No I haven't Thank you very much If you have I'm just trying to You've had more Partners than me

Stop trying to build up the stigma I'm trying to take away the stigma If you've got one Don't be ashamed Go to the doctor And get it treated It's perfectly natural Okay

I mean you should try Not to get them in the first place But if you have them Go and get it treated You're digging a hole This afternoon Don't say hole Do you want to know digging a hole this afternoon. Don't say hole. With what we're talking about.

Don't say... Do you want to know the difference that they think Tinder has made? Why? Yeah, why? So 2012 is the last year that humanity existed without Tinder. Without the ability to swipe yourself up a date. That's it.

That's when the world changed forever. In 2012, in New Zealand, there were 80 confirmed cases of syphilis. Last year, in New Zealand, there were 477 confirmed cases of syphilis. Inflation. Inflation. Inflation? I don't think inflation. No. Inflation also.

Yeah. Inflation? Yes. The rise in monetary costs. No, but it also applies. Has driven up the rate of sexually transmitted infection. It also applies because obviously the population would be bigger now. Didn't get that, but it didn't get...

Yeah, well, you know. It didn't go up 12 times in just six years. Well, the house prices in Auckland shouldn't be as much as what they were, but they are, aren't they? Look, if you are tinderising your way around the country, more power to you. Enjoy yourself. But the message here is be safe

and don't expect to buy a house anytime soon. Or get gonorrhea. It's easier to get rid of. Is it safe and don't expect to buy a house anytime soon. Or get gonorrhea. It's easier to get rid of. Is it? I don't know. That's what I've heard. From producer Ben, actually. So she's having all money, need a big boy.

Brie and Clint on ZM. Last night we went out for dinner as a show, the whole show, and we went with Dean McCarthy who does our spine entertainment news. Yes. And his boyfriend was there, Q. Yes. Which we met last night. Great people.

So we went to a lovely restaurant in Ponsonby and we're all sitting there and things were divine and the entrees came out, which looked like the mains, but they were the entrees. Well, they only looked like the main because you made me get a pizza for us as an entree. Like, I had the, you know, when you go to a restaurant and you want the person who's got the menu sorted, I had the menu sorted. And then Brie goes, chuck a pizza in there. As if you're not going to put a pizza as an entree for everyone to share.

Well, when we're not paying, it's totally fine. Exactly. It was on the company. It was delightful. One of my favourite moments was when I ordered my main meal and I ordered the pasta and then I asked the waitress, I said, oh, what's this other little side pasta thing? She goes, oh, that's just a side of spaghetti.

And I was like, oh, can I get that as well? And she looked shocked. She was like, what? She was like, so you're going to get a main pasta dish and then pasta on the side yeah i said yeah she goes no one has ever ordered that well we because you were already having pasta yeah to get a side of pasta different pasta with a side of pasta two different pastas the people would be with me i feel like but it was something that happened during the meal that producer Ben and producer Ellie both saw.

But I don't think you saw this. Okay. But you noticed later on. Okay. So, Dean McCarthy, our entertainment news presenter, his boyfriend was sitting there. Yes. And he's ordered a pasta. Yes.

But he's also ordered a side of potato. I saw those come out. They looked so good. They looked really good. I had a couple. Little roast potato cubes. Because I thought they were for everyone. Yeah. I had a few of those. Yeah saw those come out. They looked so good. They looked really good. Little roast potato cubes. Because I thought they were for everyone. Yeah. I had a few of those.

Yeah. And they were really nice. Yeah. I see Q pick up the potatoes and he has a few. And then he calls over the waitress and she comes over. And I was like, what's going on? He says to the waitress, I don't like these. I'd like to give these back and I'd like the garlic pizza bread, please.

I did talk to him about this because I said, where'd the potatoes go? And he goes, I know, I swapped them for pizza bread. After he'd eaten a few and then goes, there was nothing wrong with the potatoes. He literally just said, I don't like these. I want to send them back. Producers, have you ever seen someone do this before? No, I've never seen that. But then he ordered the other thing.

What was it? The bread. He got bread instead, yeah. I've never seen it either. It's something wrong, yes, but not just because someone doesn't like the taste. I didn't. Can you do that? I don't know.

It's a bold move. I didn't know it was a thing. I didn't know you could do that. If you can. Good to know. Good to know. Yeah. Good to know that you can get halfway through a dish and go,

change my mind. You know what I mean? Now I feel like a burger. Is it an American thing? That's what I wondered. He was American. They do do things differently. Ben, you got the bill.

Did you see if we got charged for pizza and potatoes? We did look at this in the car. We did. Yeah. Did we get charged for the potatoes? So we got charged for the potatoes potatoes. We did look at this in the car. We did. Yeah. Did we get charged for the potatoes? So we got charged for the potatoes, the thing we originally ordered, but we didn't get charged for the complimentary bread

they brought out. Yeah. Yeah. So we did get charged, but they didn't charge us for the bread. So, yeah. He got what he wanted. Yeah.

And I'm pretty sure the potatoes were cheaper. And a few free potatoes. I mean, I had a couple. Yeah. Yeah, okay. I don't know. I don't know what the rule is. Did you just hit your knee? Sorry, I was trying to be in control.

I'll turn the mic off. This is why we don't give the producers nice things. If you work in a hospital and you can tell us. Wait, someone on the text machine said I'm American but that's a shit move. Okay, cool. and you can tell us. Wait, someone on the text machine said, I'm American, but that's a shit move.

Okay, cool. Let's have a cheeky round of What's the Plot? Once upon a time, there was a girl. She was smart, debatable, talented, athletic. Not really. Picking a movie based on just the plotline That she can do Brie and Clint's What The Plot Producers, the score for the year so far is

5-3 In favour of I believe it is Brie Brie, you're up Okay Not by much Taking you on today is Darren. Hi Darren.

All right. When cops Schmidt and Jinko join the secret unit, they use their youthful appearances to go undercover as Husky Darren. 21 Jump Street. 21 Jump Street is... 22 Jump Street. Darren, you just changed your answer to a wrong answer. That leaves me with a guess.

You had it, Darren. Channing, my boyfriend boyfriend Is in the movie I'm going to say 21 Jump Street 21 Jump Street correct Darren He should have that one I was accentuating the one for dramatic effect To put a bit of doubt in the people listening to mine

Not yours Darren okay here we go It should be half a point each Yes I agree No because then we might end up with a draw I'm okay with a draw Darren, okay, here we go. Yeah, it should be half a point each. No. Yes, I agree. No, because then we might end up with a draw. No, it's one point to Brie. I'm okay with a draw.

Second movie. Yeah. Second movie. No one likes a draw. It's like kissing your sister. I don't know. How would you know? I don't know why I made that reference.

Second movie. Buzzers are your names. After many years of marriage, Pete is the sole male in a household that includes his Brie. The sole male. Bad Neighbours 2? Bad Neighbours 2 is incorrect. That's a free guess for you, Darren. Bad Neighbours is the first one.

I love Darren. I know, I got no idea. That's a free guess. Don't worry. It's a free guess. So good. Here we go. Back to the plot. He is the sole male in a household that includes his wife, Debbie, and two young daughters.

As Pete struggles to keep his record label afloat, Pete Bree. This is 40. This is 40 is correct. And that's the game, ladies and gentlemen. Two points is a win for Bree. I believe Darren should get the first point. We should play the third game. What do you think, Daz? I will agree with Brie.

Of course he will. Darren, you need this to get the movie tickets, okay? Here we go. Final movie. Buzz in when you know. I'm going to throw it at Darren so he can get it. No, I think Darren's got a better chance at this one than you. Okay.

Bree. Bree. Batman versus Superman. Batman, Superman, incorrect. Darren, I didn't give you your free guess before. You've got a free guess. Oh, okay. Sorry.

Don't say Batman 2 or I will slap you through the phone, Darren. Say Batman and the Joker. Batman, The Dark Knight. Batman, The Dark Knight is incorrect. It's an answer Bree already used. Okay. Just give him the tickets.

Batman. Yeah. Go. Batman. Yeah. No, not... Batman Returns. Batman Returns.

Batman. Batman and the Back Door. Darren, you want one more guess? Batman Begins. Batman. The answer is, I'm sick of this game now. No, no, I think I got it. Go on then.

Is it The Avengers? It's got cat. It was Batman The Dark Knight Rises. Oh, well, no one was going to get that. Darren wins. Darren, I'm going to give you two tickets to, I don't know why. You guys are wonderful. Captain Marvel.

He deserves them. Captain Marvel. It's in cinemas today. Congratulations, nobody. Batman Rises. Bree and Clint on ZM. All right, try and stay with me on this next bit because there's a lot to take in. Are you ready?

I'm ready. A Bulgarian-Israeli billionaire, diamond trader, known for his extravagant lifestyle, has unfortunately passed away after undertaking male appendage enlargement surgery. That's a lot to take in. Well, actually, it sounds like there wasn't that much to take in. In the first place. Hence the operation. Yes. Yeah. I don't want

to make any jokes about someone who's passed away. It's sad. According to local media, the 65-year-old had complications during surgery, and this is so horrible, and suffered a heart attack as they were injecting a substance into his male appendage. He actually, speaking of what you just said, so he's a billionaire, right? Yes. He's got a ton of money. Head. Yeah, had a ton of money.

According to media, he suffered from a so-called Napoleon complex due to his short stature. Oh, so he was short as well. Yes, very short apparently. And under-equipped in the downstairs region. Hence the surgery. But he was a billionaire, so there's always that.

Swings and roundabouts. The Lord giveth with one hand and with the other he give you a small wanger i think that's the proverb is that how it goes yeah i think it is john 3 21 i mean to be honest look that's quite you'd call that cosmetic surgery yeah wouldn't you i didn't know you could get it i I didn't really, like, oh, I kind of did but I didn't know that people were actually Dangerous territory. You know, very dangerous. If that goes wrong

Oh, if it goes wrong. But also, offering that sort of treatment to men who like everything bigger. Like, doesn't matter what size it is, you could be driving a Ford Ranger right now. I want a bigger. And you go, I need a bigger one. Can I get bigger wheels? Can I get bigger? This is as big as the Titanic. I want bigger. I want a bigger. And you go, I need a bigger one. Can I get bigger wheels? Can I get bigger? This is as big as the Titanic. I want bigger.

I want bigger. Bigger is better. But what I'm saying is you could have a perfectly adequate sized something. Yes. And you always want bigger. I want bigger. If you can buy it, then dangerous territory. I mean, yeah, unusual cosmetic surgery.

And there's a lot of different things now. Also, highly embarrassing way to die. Yeah. Like it has to be said. Like the obituary or the speeches, the eulogy. Yes. You'd have to avoid the topic. That's all right.

I'm sure he paid everyone to probably not make jokes. Like what would you get if you had to get something really unusual done? Like have you had any cosmetic surgery? No, I've never had cosmetic surgery. I had a lump removed from my forehead when I was a teenager. That is not cosmetic. In the centre of my forehead. People used to call me unicorn boy.

So I said to mum, it's got to go. So she paid for it to be cut off my head. Right. I thought the scar on your forehead was where they cut the dick off. That joke's not even rooted in anything. Like it's just, it's the joke that I'm a dickhead. Is that what the joke is? Is that where the joke comes from?

Is that the bit? Sorry, mate. I don't think that about you. Ask your question. Sorry. Ask your radio question so I can push the button. Sorry. 0800 dial ZM.

What is the unusual cosmetic surgery that you've had? Or you can text us on 9696. He was getting some on, you were getting the check off. I didn't get a dick cut off my head. I was bullied horrifically. And obviously it's still going on. Thanks a lot.

You're not still laughing at your joke from before. I just thought of Avaco. This is like running a one-person radio show. The topic we're talking about is unusual cosmetic surgery. There's a Bulgarian billionaire who has passed away, tragically, during appendage enlargement surgery. That's correct.

Gutted, bro. Gutted. Cosmetic surgery? I mean, you've had enlargement surgery. That's correct. Gutted, bro. Gutted. Cosmetic surgery. I mean, you've had some cosmetics. I told you in confidence that I had had a lump removed from the middle of my forehead. I also told you I was bullied about it. They called me Unicorn Boy.

And then you said something like, there was a lump, there was a dick. No, I said, is that what that was from? I always thought the scar on your forehead was where they cut the dick off. So we want to know on 800 Dials of Dem,

what is your unusual cosmetic surgery? Hi, Dave. Hey, guys. Hi, Dave. Sorry you've got to put up with that, by the way. Sorry, Dave.

Come on. Come on. What is your unusual cosmetic surgery? I had a third nipple removed. Okay, talk us through. Real third nipple? Yeah, it was

right in the centre of my chest. It looked more like a wart, but it was actually described as a nipple. How common is a third nipple? It's quite common. I mean, yeah. I know a few other guys that have got similar, but probably not as big as mine was.

Did you notice, like, when Chandler got it whipped off, did you lose any of your superpowers? Like, did you stop being funny or anything like that? No, I think I gained another level of confidence. It's like, whip my shirt off. How old were you when you got it cut off? I was 14. This confidence. It's like, what's it off? How old were you when you got it cut off? I was 14. This is quite a dated reference,

but have you ever seen that Arnold Schwarzenegger movie, Total Recall? Yep, I was about to say that. That's what I used to get teased as. Yeah. What was it? There's an alien on there who's got three boobies. Three boobies.

The uniboob? No, that's one boobie. Oh. All right. She was my mum. Dave, close. Do you miss was my mum. Dave, classic. Do you miss it? Do you miss your third nipple?

No, not at all. Nah, get rid of it. That's awesome. I've got other problems. You've got other problems? Okay, sweet as. Thanks for your call. Olivia, hello.

Hi. What's your unusual cosmetic surgery? I get Botox in my bladder a yearly. Wait, so you get Botox in your bladder? Yeah. Why is that? You've got a wrinkly bladder? Nah, it just gives away otherwise. It can't control it. Right. Botox can be

used for so many things. How old are you by the way? Because bladder weakness can be a symptom of pregnancy? After. How old are you? I'm only 21. I definitely haven't had any kids. Yeah, okay.

So what does Botox do? Just sort of tightens everything up. Tight. Keeps it in there. Tight. It actually relaxes it, surprisingly enough. Why? Oh, okay.

I might need this on a night out, actually. Because we're all in the same boat, Olivia. You know what I mean? Can you get Botox? Can you get Botox in your butt? Because I think Bree needs that. That thing is constantly giving away. Okay. Thanks, Olivia.

That's great and amazing that you've discovered that that works for you. I guess that is such a relief. I don't say relief, right? I guess that's the wrong turn of phrase. That's what she doesn't want. Yeah. No, I don't want that.

Do you ever say to them when they're down there and they're sticking it in the bladder, do you ever say, hey, do you want to bang a little bit in the forehead or anything like that?

A little bit of top up in the face? No, I haven't. Maybe next time I'll offer it as a pointer. Why not? Yeah. See what you can get out of it.

All right. Are we done on this topic? I was done ages ago. Why not? Yeah. See what you can get out of it. All right. Are we done on this topic? I was done ages ago. Okay, sweet as. Bree and Clint on Zitim. Let's get it. It's my birthday. It's my birthday.

Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger. We take your birthday. We figure out what was actually number one on your 16th birthday. Then we all reminisce and we pick our favourite one. First up to play Birthday banger is Shirley. Hi, Shirley. Hi, Cheryl. Hi, love. How are you?

Whoa, is the phone inside your mouth? No, it's fine. It's just I'm quite on a busy road at the moment, so I'm trying to find somewhere a bit quieter. Don't worry about it. It's all good. What's your birthday, Shirley? That is the 2nd of June, 1993. Okay, Shirley, you were 16 in 2009 on the 2nd of June, 1993. Okay, Shirley, you were 16 in 2009 on the 2nd of June.

And Shirley, your birthday banger is this. Kerry Hilson, Neo and Kanye. Knocks you down. It's good. Yeah, I like it, yes. Oh, my God, your phone just got 300 times better. What did you do? I don't know.

I think the traffic's breaking up next to me. Okay, sweet as. Good work, Cheryl. Next one up is Karen. Hey, Karen. Hi, Kaz. Hi. What's your birthday, Karen?

So it's 30th of December, 1970. Okay, Karen, you were 16 in 1986 on the 30th of December, and back in the 80s, this was number one. Won't you take me to a funky town? Won't you take me to a funky town? How do you feel about that, Karen? Oh, Karen. Remember that one?

Yes. Oh, banger. Pseudo-echo. Yes. And funky town. Oh, that's a tune. Okay, cool. Next one, last one in Birthday Banger is for Lemon.

Hi, Lemon. Hi, Lemon. Hello. What's your birthday? 9th of July, 1994. Okay, Lemon, you were 16 in 2010 on the 9th of July, and back in 2010, this was number one. Good Birthday banger.

Yeah, it doesn't suit me at all, though. It doesn't suit you at all? Why not? I don't know. I'm usually a bit of a metalhead. You're more of a metalhead. The birthday banger chooses you, Lemon. Can I ask Lemon, and I don't mean this in an offensive way, Lemon,

birth name or nickname? Nickname. That's what everyone calls me. Oh, yeah, sweet. That's a cool nickname. Yeah, or it'd be an even cooler birth name, but that's fine. What are we going to play? Which songs are we going to play? I wonder if people get Lemon and turn her into lemonade.

Yeah, should have stopped at the other one. That's cool. I reckon Funky Town. You reckon Funky Town? That's what my gut says. I quite like the Kerry Hilson song. I haven't heard that for ages too. We could go to the producers.

God, we do this a lot recently. I'm saying Funky Town. You can override me. You do still have your veto up your sleeve. You're saving your veto for when the producers don't agree with you, don't you? Exactly. Right, okay. Pseudo Echo or Kerry Hilson knocks you down.

And we're going to go to the producers, sorry. Let's go today, producer Ben. Which of those two songs are we playing? I'm going to agree with Brie. I think we should play Funky Town. Yeah, boy. Get it. Let's get funky. Get it Karen, your birthday bang is on the radio

For the first time since 1986 Fantastic Gotta have something old for a change Yeah, Kaz Off air, us here, the whole team's in the studio Producer Ben, Producer Ellie, Clint, we're all here Hello Off air, we here, the whole team's in the studio, producer Ben, producer Ellie, Clint, we're all here. Hello.

Hi. Hello. Off air, we have a group chat and I requested something a little bit strange this morning from the group. I said, can everyone please wear a pair of Vans to work? I said, with pleasure. They're my favourite shoes at the moment. You just know that the guys from Vans are probably listening. Nah, I just love them.

I wear them when I'm skateboarding. I think I love them the most. I wear them when I'm surfing. When I'm skateboarding. When I'm surfing, yeah. Yeah, right. I wear them when I go to the Vans Warps Tour, my favourite festival. Yeah, right.

Oh, my God. God. You're a sucker, aren't you? So, finally, we're going to figure out why we're all wearing vans and we're going to get to the bottom of a conspiracy theory. A conspiracy theory? Yes. So, on the internet of all places, I saw this conspiracy theory,

which was that if you throw a pair of vans in the air, shoes, a pair of vans, shoes in the air. It shows that you just don't care. Ooh, ooh, put the body over here. Ooh, ooh, there's a body over there. They always land laces up. What? So that's the theory.

Kind of like the theory a cat always lands on their feet. Yeah. A pair of vans always land laces up. Okay. We all have the exact same pair of Vans. We've got those ones that have the white stripe down the side. They're the old school ones that Seth used to wear in the OC. Oh, there you go.

Yeah, my favourite. Okay, cool. Cool. So we've all taken our shoes off. Smells great in here, by the way. So should we? Yeah, it stinks. That's producer Ellie.

Your feet reek. I do. So, what I thought we could do this afternoon is one by one, we'll each throw our pair of Vans in the air and we'll see how many out of the four pairs land laces up. Okay, first up. Who do you want to go first? I'll go first.

Okay, Ben goes first. Ben's going to go first. Three, two... Both! Both! Yeah, both of them. Both! going to go first. All right, producer Ben. Three, two. Both. Both. Yeah. Both of them. Both.

Laces up. Laces up. Okay, next up, producer Ellie. Oh, no, I don't want to ruin it. Here we go. Producer Ellie. Yeah. I'm up on two.

We got two from two so far. This would be a great place to stop, by the way, in the theory proven, but we're not going to. No, in a true scientific test, because now technically we're all professors. It's you. We need to keep going. Oh! She was on the edge.

It almost didn't. It almost didn't. It teased it. She was on the edge. Okay. That just leaves one pair of vans left, my ones. That's yours. Here we go.

Don't let the team down. Here we go. It's not my fault if it doesn't work. Yeah, it is your fault. What are the bloody chances? I just threw mine in celebration and they also landed later. What are the bloody chances? I mean, wow.

Okay, cool. That's interesting. Conspiracy theory proven correct this afternoon. That's Science with Bree and Clint. If you've got a pair of Vans, we'd love to hear from you. Oh, yeah, chuck them out the car window right now. Try it at home. Try it in the car.

Does it work if they bounce off somebody as well? Like if you throw it at someone. Still counts. Yeah. Still counts. Ben just did it off of me and they still landed laces up. Bree and Clint on ZM. There's a new Bachelor.

Well, not in New Zealand, because I think they've given up on that. I think they've realised we only had one good Bachelor in us. Surely there's other good Bachelors out there here in Kiwi League. I don't think that want to go on The Bachelor. I think that's the issue. Maybe. I don't know. They gave it three cracks.

Only one of them survived, Art and Matilda. The first one. And they've done now. They've married. They're having a baby. I know. Couldn't go any better. I mean, Jordan, I don't know what he's up to, but he's out there somewhere.

Fleur. God, remember Fleur? God, what a disaster of a season that was. Anyway, there's a new Australian bachelor. Yes. This is the first male bachelor since Nick Honeybadger Cummins. Big news for my family. It is my brother.

No. Your brother would make an excellent bachelor. No, actually he wouldn't. Very good looking, but I feel like he'd be a bit shy. He is a bit shy until you get to know him. Yeah, but does he have the bravado in him to date 24 women at once? He would find it degrading to them. How would he find the dumping process?

He wouldn't, yeah. No, I think he'd be okay with that. Well, the new Australian bachelor is not famous. They haven't gone for a rugby player this time. Because I heard a rumour that it was going to be Bronson off Married at First Sight Bronson? That was the rumour that was doing the rounds Bronson?

Yes Would you sign up to The Bachelor if it was Bronson? Seriously Don't say his name like that, he's alright Matt Agnew is the new Bachelor, that's his name So just pulled him out of nowhere? Well Shouldn't have said that

No, they haven't pulled him out of nowhere. Shouldn't have said that. Shouldn't have said it again. He is, I'll give you his cred, and you can see if you're attracted to him. Okay. Okay. He is an astrophysicist with a PhD who lives in Melbourne and works at Swineburton University of Technology

in their Centre for Astrophysics and Supercomputing. See, not for me. Because I wouldn't be smart enough to have a conversation with him. You know what I mean? So he would be saying all these real smart things and I'd probably just be like, oh yeah. Well, if he's hot, does it really matter? Could you just like glaze over and... You know, you and I both know that looks aren't everything.

No. How much are they though? 50-50. There't everything. No. How much are they, though? 50-50. There you go. Good. You have to be attracted to someone, but if they ain't got the personality to match yours, then... Well, I'll tell you what he's looking for. Yeah, what's he looking for?

Because that's his cred. Am I his type? I think you might be. Really? He said he wants someone with an outrageous amount of personal debt, addicted to Uber Eats, and who currently owns a half van, half ute that's stuck in Blenheim without a warrant of fitness. What are the odds? What are the chances?

That is me! So pack your bags Bree. You're off to Australia to compete in the new season of The Bachelor. That was good from you. Didn't see that coming. Producer Ellie and I were on our way to work earlier today. And Ellie, you told me a story that happened to you last night that, I mean, I found all too familiar, but, you know, quite disturbing. And I thought it'd be good for you to share that on the radio today as a good reminder for people that may be listening

that you need to be safe. You do. So basically, I was coming home. I was driving home by myself. It was only like 9.30 at night. We'd all just left. We had a dinner last night. We all just left each other last night.

And you dropped me home, and this was on your way home. Literally, just dropped Bree and Ben home, and then I went to the mobile service station. Great service station, by the way. Show sponsor. good to see you're buying your gas in the right place i was i was did you use your mobile smiles card yes excellent uh so basically i got out of the car i don't have much money at the moment so i just had to get 10 bucks you know the old 10 bucks and i got out and this guy sort of said how's it going but i couldn't see him and so i thought it was someone on the forecourt you just

kind of saw his head right yeah i was kind of like oh it must be a helper so i was like good thanks putting my petrol and i was paid at pump as well and then he popped his head around from the other side of the pump and it was a guy not in uniform i was like oh okay so this is just a person trying to talk to me and he goes do you know where i've just been and i said no thinking in my head why would i and he goes oh i've um i've just been around the corner at a swingers party i was like oh my god what yeah and i was like oh gosh because i'm by myself it's dark and i am a female as well and i'm i felt weak and i felt threatened and i'm immediately my fight or flight went crazy yeah and i was like where are my keys and then he goes um

he goes i've just been at the swingers party uh but i didn't realize i needed a partner and he was kind of just rambling weirdly and i said what are you asking me and he says oh would you like to be on my date just for one night oh my gosh i i was i'm shaking talking about it now it just reminded me that we're not always safe and luckily i was only getting 10 bucks in so i finished it and i literally was like no thank you and actually yelled it quite loud yeah and ran around the side of my car locked on my doors and just sped off and I was just shook because it was just like it's a reminder to all you ladies out there to just stay safe and it sucks we even have to say that are you okay I am but it did shake me because in that moment if he threatened me again or used his physical presence i was doomed like i couldn't do anything yeah i'm lucky i was in a lit um area station yes but um

like it could have happened anywhere and i was just in ponsonby getting my petrol like why can't i just do that in peace one of the creepiest moves i've ever heard like who on earth thinks that that's going to happen but also like don't approach girls in that situation don't don't go up to girls who are alone and then expect them to because then the guys go oh why are you being so rude i was just asking you out on a date exactly it's not welcome detention right no exactly and it does you freeze and you don't know what to do people say just stand up for yourself but as you just you don't in the moment it's scary yeah the conversation really is that you know what's right and what's not okay to ask someone in public a conversation like that what is the right thing to do i wonder i think you did the right thing but like what is

the official advice in that situation do you make noise do you try and get the attention of the guy inside like what are you supposed to do no i just froze and i thought if i did yell something back that he would then get angry. And then I'd be doomed even more. So I just decided to go, no, thank you, and got in the car. God, all that padu car of yours could have broken down as you were trying to pull up. Exactly.

I mean, gosh. God, that'd be like the beginning of Scream 3. The service station attendant probably thought you were stealing petrol as you pulled it off. By the way, did you pay for your fuel? I had paid at Pump prior, so that was lucky. Hey, there's the lesson in this. Always prepay for your fuel. Seriously, paid at Pump prior So that was lucky There's the lesson in this Always pre-pay for your fuel Yes

Seriously though We're glad you're okay Thank you guys And that's a horrible story And probably a good bit Of self-awareness For people listening Not that you should have

To be self-aware But unfortunately Always gotta be Gotta be There you go
