Brie and Clint, the podcast, ZM.
Brianna's amazing.
It's amazing.
Oh my God!
She's hysterical.
Brie and Clint are chasing Tatum.
Tatum.
Live from LA.
What the hell's going on?
I've always wanted to say this.
It is Brie and Clint live from our LA studios.
Oh my God, you guys.
It's so good to be here in LA.
I picked up a slight accent, but don't worry about that.
It changes from Southern.
It changes from Southern to Californian,
but I've got a slight accent from being here for two days.
It hasn't gone Californian yet.
You've been doing it for 24 hours and you still haven't figured out how to do it.
But that's okay.
We've got lots of time.
Plenty of time to figure that out.
If you don't know why we're here, we are
chasing Tatum. We are trying to find
Channing Tatum. And we're not going to tell
you the results of that search just yet
because I want to fill you
in on some stuff before then.
That's fair enough. And you might be thinking
that sounds like the dumbest plan
I've ever heard in my
whole life. And you'd be right.
People keep saying to us over here, because we've got these matching outfits on,
and the Americans come over and they say,
Oh my God, what are you guys doing? What's the deal with this?
And we go, Oh, we're flying over from New Zealand to find Channing Tatum.
And we get a mixture of, Okay, that's stupid, and love it.
Fantastic. What a great idea.
You go. You do you.
And then we also get, Are you guys in a band?
Next, an official update, though. a great idea. You go, you do you and then we also get, are you guys in a band? Next
an official update though. After about
48 hours on the ground here in the States
have we found Channing Tatum?
Are we close to finding him?
Is he going to be on the show today?
We're going to give you a real update on that
next. Okay, so stick around.
Or have we just went out the whole time
and done absolutely no work?
Of course not. Do you think that...
No.
Wait.
Not at all.
Are you in this trip for selfish reasons?
Ah!
Are you getting something out of this?
We'll tell you next.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
We are live from Los Angeles as we continue to search for Channing Tatum.
La La Land, otherwise known as an old wooden ship.
No, you're confusing.
That's the San Diego reference.
Nope, that's Los Angeles.
What?
We landed here two days ago, okay,
and the search went on straight away.
In fact, we went straight to the top of the Hollywood Hills
where the sign is,
and you sent a message direct to Channing Tatum
from the highest point in LA.
Check this out.
This is La La Land, you know, as they say.
The old Los Angeles.
There it is.
He's out there somewhere.
He has to be.
I could just message him on Instagram because we are friends.
Why don't you just call out?
Why don't you just let him know?
Channing!
Channing, where are you?
We've come all this way.
We love you.
How could he not hear it, right?
It was pretty loud and there was a lot of really confused tourists up there
at the top of the hills who just looked at me like I was batshit crazy.
Yeah, there was.
But has it worked?
Okay, here we go.
Let's find out.
Three, one year ago,
the Channing Tatum started following you on Instagram.
Brianna's amazing.
Now you and Clint have flown to the other side of the world to try to meet him,
to see if it was all one big accident.
After one day in Los Angeles, have you found him?
Nah.
Better luck tomorrow.
Yeah, it is a big fat no, but yeah, like I said, we've only been here for 48 hours so far.
So, hey, get off our case.
We're just finding our feet, you know.
We're just getting the lay of the land.
Give us a break, man.
Give us a break.
Yeah. Yeah, geez.
We had some drinking to do. I mean,
working to do. Some sightseeing
to do. Yes. And finding out the
lay of the land. I
believe I may have an update
on where Channing Tatum actually is.
His physical location.
Some new evidence has surfaced in the
last eight hours. The last
eight hours because I did tell you that I got an inbox
from one of our informants who said that their brother
met Jessie J and Channing at Heathrow Airport in London.
Exactly right.
Let's play a song, come back,
and we'll give the latest information we have
on where Channing Tatum is right now.
Brie and Clint, the podcast, ZM.
Honestly,
my stomach nearly fell out my bum.
Brie has just gone through
an absolute rollercoaster of emotions.
I've just told you
I'm about to give you
a physical update
on where Channing Tatum is.
Before then,
our celebrity reporter
who we're very lucky to have
live in the studio this week,
Dean McCarthy.
Hello.
Hi, guys.
You just pulled the meanest prank on Brie.
That was so horrible, Dean.
So moments ago, Bree posted me on her Instagram story
and she said to me, you're probably going to get some followers.
And all of a sudden, I start getting all these followers on my Instagram.
And as a G up, I turned to her and go, babe,
Channing just started following me.
Everyone in the room's face went white.
I turned my phone around, face in clean. Brie jumps
up out of the chair like someone had run over a cat.
Oh my god!
I fully bought that.
Hook, line and sinker, you arsehole.
If he can follow you, he can follow Dean.
He would have seen me.
He would have seen me on your story. Totally believable.
How exciting is that for you?
He has laid eyes
on you, Dan. One step away
from him. If we're getting this excited about
him and we are here to find him,
we need to know where he is.
When we left you on Friday,
I told you that Channing had sprung
up in Germany. He was on
a show there. They were
launching Magic Mike, the stage
show in Germany. That was like three days ago
guys. That was like so ages ago.
And he's an A-list celeb. He moves around really
quick. He'll have a jet. He'll have
disposable income up the
wazoo. He could be anywhere right now.
I did get wind that him
and Jessie J were spotted at
Heathrow Airport in London.
That was a day and a half ago. That was fed into
you by a source on Instagram, wasn't it?
I also have sources out there who are looking into this,
and I have an update from as recent as eight hours ago.
Let's get a drumroll as to where Channing Tatum is right now.
Bearing in mind he was in Germany, he is now in Germany.
How much bratwurst can you eat?
Direct from none other than Heidi Klum's Instagram account,
she has just posted a photo with Channing on stage at Germany's Next Top Model.
Oh, and he looks so good.
He does look good, doesn't he?
He's got running a bleached hairdo at the moment.
He shaved his head and he's got bleached hair at the moment.
It's a radical look.
Oh, so he's still in Germany?
Does anyone know?
I mean, Dean, do you know?
Is that live taped, that show?
It wouldn't be because he might have filmed it ages ago.
He could be gone, girl.
He could be gone.
You never know.
It could absolutely be live taped.
Yeah, but judging from his hair, that's a recent addition.
Oh, no, no.
It's definitely on this trip.
Yeah.
Don't worry. It's definitely on this trip to Germany.
Heidi has posted it today.
This is what you do when you're trying to track down somebody,
like a suspect.
You've got to go with the most recent sighting.
And unfortunately for us,
who have flown all the way from New Zealand to Los Angeles,
his most recent sighting is still in Germany.
You know what?
I bet that's an old photo.
For security reasons,
they never post
like a present photo
of where they are.
When we do press junkets
here in Hollywood,
we're not allowed to post
that we were at the hotel
doing the interview
because all the fans go,
oh my God,
that means that,
you know,
Meryl Streep's in the building.
And we thought
you were just a pretty face.
So did I.
He could be here.
I don't know where this came from.
I don't know where this came from.
You're actually good
for something else.
That means he could be absolutely anywhere.
God, he could even be in New Zealand.
Although that doesn't help, does it?
That doesn't help us at all.
No, that makes it worse.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
We are here in Hollywood, so let's get some spy news.
Live from Hollywood with our man on the ground, Dean McCarthy.
Spy.co.nz Technically, we're all on the ground, Dean McCarthy. Spy.co.nz
Technically,
we're all on the ground today.
We're all in LA.
Usually we cross live to you, Dean,
because you live here full time.
And how cool that we're all here
in the same studio.
We're literally live from LA.
Literally.
Yeah, we went and got
these stories ourselves.
This is real journalistic content
that we produced today.
Let's kick it off
with Brooklyn Beckham
who's had a big bust up.
Oh, he has. This has got
really ugly actually at the Cannes Film Festival. Brooklyn
Beckham and his girlfriend, she's so hot, Hannah Cross.
Yeah, she a babe. She's such a
babe. Those two together, criminal.
Literally, actually. In more ways than one.
Here's what went down. So they had a massive
bust up and the most awkward thing about this is
all of the biggest stars in
Hollywood are there, right, at Cannes Film Festival.
It got so ugly.
According to reports, she lashed out.
That's what they said.
Physically.
Physically.
Security had to physically pull them apart.
Oh, girl, no.
Not cute at an event like that.
David and Victoria were called over.
Maybe they were paged.
Maybe they got on the text message.
Maybe the WhatsApp or something.
But it was very cute.
They all turned up.
And look, nothing else happened.
How embarrassing that you're an adult
and your parents have to show up to your fight with your girlfriend.
Like, if things are getting physical, totally, but you know?
Can I just say, I'm one of those people.
I don't know if anyone else in the room is the same, but any public fight, I just can't.
Awkward.
I can't do it.
I hate it.
Is Brooklyn Beckham on the list for you, by the way?
Yeah, he's on the list, yeah.
Is he?
Yeah. Because he's the same age as Shawn Mendes, by the way? Yeah, he's on the list, yeah. Is he? Yeah.
Because he's the same age as Shawn Mendes, by the way.
Yeah, I'm good to go.
21.
No, no, he's 20.
Right.
Remember we just...
Dean, do you know the half your age plus seven rule?
Doesn't apply to Dean.
He can have whoever he wants.
So, wait, that makes them 10 plus 17.
Yep.
Oh, come on.
Speaking of...
Hey, if this was chasing Shawn Mendes, I see him every morning at my gym.
Next time, come back to chase Shawn Mendes.
Are you serious?
Can we come with you to the gym tomorrow?
Yeah.
All of a sudden, Brie feels like a workout.
I really want to exercise.
Yeah, let's keep it in the Beckham family.
Yeah, keep it in the Beckham family.
Posh Spice, the Spice Girls tour has kicked off.
It's kicked off in Dublin.
Actually, it probably kicked off better than we expected.
Mel B wasn't wearing the pirate patch that we all expected.
It looks cool, the tour.
The photos we're seeing with that big stage and stuff, it looks awesome.
They spent some money on that set.
It looked really good.
Apparently, there was some audio issues.
Some fans were complaining about that.
Mel B came out on Instagram in a story and said,
Look, sorry about the sound, but we're going to be better next time.
Victoria Beckham.
Oh, my God.
Was that audio of Mel B or was that you doing it?
That was a live cross.
That was amazing.
I know.
I pulled that out.
Yeah.
And then Victoria Beckham went on social media and said,
good luck to you all.
Congratulations.
But it was a bit awkward because here's a little fun fact about this tour, right?
So when all five of them signed on, which they did in London.
What?
So they originally all signed on?
All signed on.
All five.
They were going to get 32 million bucks each.
Okay.
Oh.
When Victoria pulled out, their fee went down to 8 million each.
Are you serious?
She's worth that much?
Yes.
Or is it she's worth that much?
Or is it as a five they're worth that much?
Yeah.
So like I'm a massive Spice Girls fan, I wouldn't probably go see them as four, but as five you'd
be there.
Yes, you would.
I would, wouldn't I?
Yeah.
No, you'd be living for it.
This is it. This is it.
I've even got the Union Jack dress.
I'm ready.
And you look better than Mel B in it. Oh, no, Jerry, sorry.
That is Spike
with Dean McCarthy right here.
Brie and Clint, the podcast.
ZM. We just found out from Dean McCarthy
that if we wanted to, we could have gone and seen
Sean Mendes at his gym. Yeah, he says
he sees him at his gym all the time.
Are you a gym cool with you inviting us in like that to meet other people?
I actually should not be telling people that.
I tell everyone about who goes to my gym,
and that's like one of the rules of going there you're not supposed to talk about.
They probably recognise me.
I did call them last week and pretended to be Jessie J.
And you called my friend who works on the front desk.
Shut up.
Yeah.
He was lovely.
He's lovely. Fired He was lovely. He's lovely.
Fired, but lovely.
Amazing.
Hey, when we landed in LA
the other day, obviously you guys
are all in relationships.
Happily married, thank you very much.
I mean, happily.
Excuse me?
Excuse me, what kind of throwaway comment is that?
I'm joking.
I, on the other hand, you said, have you jumped onto Tinder yet in LA?
You want that to be the way that it came out.
So you forced me to jump onto Tinder.
We had only just got out of customs at LAX and Brie goes, oh, I'm going to get on Tinder.
Why do you make me sound like a predator?
Because that's the voice you make in those situations.
Can I say, the talent here in LA, very good.
Yeah.
Very high standard.
But that's an old dating app.
They're all looking for the big break.
Exactly.
Yeah, they're hoping a director discovers them on Tinder.
But that's an old dating app.
Everyone's heard of Tinder.
It's been around for a long time.
There's a new dating app that's on the scene,
and it's getting ready to launch in New Zealand,
which I don't know if I'm a fan of this one.
Okay.
So the dating app is called Toffee and it is literally specifically only for people
who attended private school.
Oh, get off the grass.
So, yeah, recently launched in the UK.
It's in Australia now and it is the world's first dating app for people who were privately educated.
So you're talking people who like to believe they're in the upper echelon.
Pretty much.
I mean, no shade to people.
There'll be people listening who went to private schools.
That's totally fine.
I'm not having a go at that, and I wouldn't,
because I've got lots of friends who went to private schools as well.
Great people.
But if you are saying I only date people from private schools. I think that's
a bit rough. I think that might be a little bit rough. A little bit judgy. They're saying
that they set it up, the people who created it, because they know that people from similar
backgrounds, and they have to be careful here, are more likely to stick together. Toffee
connects the right people to help them find their match with our sophisticated matching algorithm.
Why have they called it Toffee as well?
Yeah, I don't know.
Just, don't worry.
That's okay.
I'm not going to go down that road.
Right.
I don't think I'm a fan. I don't know if the community is big enough in New Zealand.
Oh, possibly.
But everybody knows everybody anyway.
And you know what school everybody went to.
I don't know if it would go well in New Zealand.
And I don't think you can really tell.
Like, you can't.
When you meet someone, do you think you can tell if they're privately schooled?
No, I can't.
But I think private school people can tell other private school people.
Do they have a smell?
They've got like a secret handshake.
They have a secret handshake.
Yeah, a special business.
Are you a private school boy, Dan?
Oh, yeah, I could tell that, actually.
But I would knock on a private school dating app.
Oh, that makes me cringe.
You could just call it Tossa instead of Toffee.
See, that's the route I didn't want to go down.
But you've done it now, so that's totally fine.
It's out there.
Would you do that, Dean?
No, I would never go on a dating app.
Exclusively date only people who are...
Makes me cringe to my core.
In fact, anyone who still brings it up, like I'm, what, 22?
Anyone who brings it up after... Anyone who brings up school after 17 makes me cringe to my core. In fact, anyone who still brings it up, like I'm what, 22? Anyone who brings it up after,
anyone who brings up school after 17
makes me cringe to my core.
Yeah, I just don't think it matters.
If you're dating someone, that doesn't matter.
Do you want to try and see if we can?
Yeah, I want to give it a go.
Do you want to,
and this is a no hate segment.
No.
This is not private school bashing.
This is not that.
It's toffee app bashing.
But then we're not going to do that specifically. Let's see if we can figure out, let's see if we can pick whether you're from a private school bashing. This is not that. It's toffee app bashing. But we're not going to do that specifically.
Let's see if we can figure out,
let's see if we can pick whether you're from a private school or not.
Which I don't reckon we can.
But let's give it a go.
0800 dial ZM.
You can tell our producers off air if you went to a private school or not.
Tell them the truth.
They won't tell us.
Exactly.
And then we will guess based just on talking to you for about 20 seconds
if you're privately schooled or not.
We'll give it a go.
ZM Spree in Clint.
The podcast. That is Billie Eilish and Wish You Were Gay. Very shortly we'll give
you the chance to win a trip to see her in
San Diego. An old
wooden ship. With ZM's World Tour
number 5. In fact in the next 5 minutes we'll give
you that chance. There's a new dating app
that may be coming to New Zealand
and if private school
people are your thing, this is the
app for you because literally
exclusively only allowed on
there if you went to a private school. What if you
love private school people
but you didn't go? What if that's your market?
I want to date a private school person
but I went to povo school.
Public school is not
povo. Oh, mine was.
Was it?
Yeah, you lived in Rotorua.
Excuse me?
Yeah, well, that's just right.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
We're going to play a little game.
The app's called Toffee, by the way,
and someone's texted and it's called Toffee after toffee noses
because apparently that's what you call a posh person, a toffee nose.
Gotcha.
That makes sense.
We're going to see if it's possible to guess
whether someone is a private school person.
Just with a couple of questions.
Because if you go up to someone in a bar, can you really tell within the first like 10 minutes if they're from private school?
We do have a secret weapon.
Dean is here as well.
Dean McCarthy, our spy reporter.
You are a private school person.
Yes.
Hello.
You don't talk like that.
Which was I.
I don't talk like that.
Did you go to an all-boys private school?
I went to an all-boys private school, yes.
Oh, makes all make sense now.
Yep, yep.
Everything lines up.
Let's go to our first person, Emma.
Hi, Emma.
Hi, Emma.
Hi there, how are you?
Good.
Emma, what's your favourite meal?
Chicken lasagna.
Chicken lasagna. That's a fancy type of lasagna. Chicken lasagna.
That's a fancy type of lasagna.
Yeah, that is fancy.
Emma, if you're going to the supermarket,
what sort of footwear are you thinking you'll have on your feet?
Crocs.
Emma?
Emma, are you really rocking the Crocs?
Yes, I am.
Hey, they're comfy.
They are comfy, Emma.
Exactly.
Emma, what was your first car?
It was a Toyota.
Oh, they got me thinking.
Say no more.
I used to call it the Super Strut because it had Super Strut written on the side.
Oh, Emma, I think you've given yourself away.
We're going to say, we're going to hazard a guess and say you are not of private school stock.
Is that correct?
No, I actually went to a private school.
Oh, you never know.
Okay.
You sound like a ripping bird as well, by the way.
Let's go to another one.
Hi, Kate.
Hi there.
Hello.
Hi.
What part of the country are you calling us from?
Bay of Plenty.
The Bay of Plenty.
Okay.
Kate, do you speak more than one language?
A little bit of Spanish, but yeah, not much.
Oh, very fancy.
Española.
Español, sí.
Gracias.
Emma. Enchiladas Española, sí. Gracias. Emma.
Enchiladas.
Oh, no, that's Mexican.
Emma, if you were going to buy someone a block of...
Oh, Kate, sorry.
Kate.
If you were going to buy someone a block of chocolate for their birthday,
what brand of chocolate would it be?
Would it be a Whittaker's or a Cadbury?
Cadbury's gone gross in the last two years,
so I'm going to go Whittaker's.
Or Lindt.
Lindt is the best.
Oh!
Lindt's fancy.
I know where this is going.
I know where this is going.
I think we're ready to lock it in.
I think we're going to lock in, she's privately schooled.
Kate, are you privately educated?
No, I went to Te Puke.
Come on.
No!
Oh!
We suck at this. Fancy Prince McGee with your Lindt chocolate. Yeah, I went to Tupuki. Come on. No! We suck at this.
Fancy Prince McGee with your lint chocolate.
Yeah, jeez. Oh, I love lint chocolate.
Let's hide away. Last person
up to the private school selector is
Amisha. Hi, Amisha.
Hi.
Amisha, I've got a question.
If you were to get a dog, what
kind of dog would you get?
A toy poodle.
Amisha, how old are you?
I'm 11.
So you're currently at school still?
Yeah.
Okay.
Do you have any more questions for Amisha?
Not appropriate ones anymore, no.
Amisha, what's your favourite TV show?
My favourite TV show? My favourite TV show?
Yeah.
Probably...
I kind of like American Ninja Warrior.
Oh, good show.
Yeah, it's a good show.
I'm going to say, Misha, that you...
Yeah.
I think you're a little bit fancy.
I think you do go to a private school.
That's right, I do.
Oh, we got one.
We got one.
We did prove, however, that it is pretty much impossible to tell.
So maybe they do need that app.
Okay, Bree and Clint, we're live from LA.
Let's give someone the chance to get to the States now too
with ZM's World Tour No. 5.
It's your chance to see Billie Eilish live in San Diego.
And this is your activator.
0800-DIAL-ZM right now if you want to win that trip.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
We are live from LA.
Got here a couple of days ago.
We're chasing Tatum.
No sighting of Tatum yet.
Actually, no sighting of any celebrity. Actually, no sighting of any celebrity.
No, no sighting of any celebrity.
Haven't seen a celebrity yet.
We've been in Hollywood.
We've been in and around Hollywood.
We've had it all up in our grill.
Our producer, Bean, thought he saw Miley Cyrus the other day.
What did he say?
He goes, oh my God, guys, Miley Cyrus is out there.
I'm not joking.
He could not have been more sure of himself. I'm not joking. Like, he could not have been more sure of himself.
I am not joking.
She's even with her boyfriend, Chris Hemsworth.
And then we literally stand up and I look at this girl
who looks nothing like Miley Cyrus.
Also, she goes out with Liam Hemsworth.
So, so, so, like we said, no celebrities.
Maybe we have seen them and we just haven't recognised them.
Maybe.
That's another big part.
But we have blinkers on.
We don't care about other celebrities.
Honestly, we could walk into President Obama tomorrow and we'd go,
sorry, Barack, we're busy.
We're looking for Channing Tatum.
I would ask him if he's seen Channing, though.
Oh, yes, if he's going to lead for us.
This mission is gaining traction, okay?
If it's going to be successful, it needs to bubble to the surface where he's going to see it.
Because I don't think he listens to ZM.
I don't think he can get it.
Are you sure?
He might have the iHeartRadio app, you never know.
But we need to get into other media sources.
They need to be talking about this.
We need to create buzz.
We need to create hype.
And that's why I was really excited this morning to log on to the biggest newspaper in New Zealand,
the New Zealand Herald, to find we are being talked about, Brie.
This mission is being written up.
Yeah, I mean, I don't love the things that they're saying about me in the article.
Oh, I'll give you the headline.
ZM host poses as superstar Jessie J to stalk Channing Tatum.
We're trying to lay low, guys.
Stalk is a rough word.
No, I think that's pretty right.
Let me dip into the article, and we'll just do a bit of fact checking.
Because if this is happening, we need to know it's correct.
ZM Drive host Brie Thomas-El has taken her relationship
with Hollywood star Channing Tatum
to a whole new and slightly creepy level.
What?
Who is writing this?
That's so rough.
But kind of fair, actually.
Brie has shared her ongoing saga with Channing on the show before,
with the whole thing starting a year ago
after the Step Up star slid into her DMs
on Instagram.
That's kind of not true, but I'll take it.
Kind of true.
You slid into his.
He followed you.
Yes.
Well, no, no, no, no.
Let's go back.
You followed him.
No, I wasn't following him.
Did he follow first?
Yeah, and I had to give him a follow back after he followed me.
That's good.
That's good.
Yeah.
But then you slid into the DMs.
Yeah, I did.
And he replied.
Yes.
And then you slid back into the DMs. And then he left replied. Yes. And then you slid back into the DMs.
And then he left me on scene.
And then you slid back into the DMs again.
Left me on scene again.
And now we're in Los Angeles.
So.
So, I mean, you know, I think it's been pretty even on his part and my part.
That fact checks out enough.
We'll let that one slide.
I'll continue with the article. Now, Bree and co-host Clint Randall are doing whatever it takes to get the pair to meet and cement their friendship in real life.
God, did I upgrade to the hot Clint?
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Now.
He's looking pretty good at the moment. For those who that joke may have gone over their head,
I am not Clint Randall.
I am Clint Roberts, okay?
That's pretty similar, though.
He's not even called Clint on the radio.
They call him Randall.
But your names are very similar.
Clint Roberts, Clint Randall.
Yeah, and I have been watching Dancing With The Stars.
Our physiques are drastically similar at the moment too.
Okay.
Ever since I got that spray tan, maybe that's what it is.
The spray tan.
Maybe it's the spray tan that really drilled in on my six pack.
You do look similar with the spray tan.
And I have started wearing none of the buttons done up on my shirt a lot,
just like he has been on Dancing with the Stars.
It's because you're in LA.
So, look, it's fine.
Any publicity is good publicity.
It's good to be written about.
Mate, I'd rather be mistaken for some hot dude
other than be called a creep like me.
Yeah, there's always that, isn't there?
I guess I did come out on top in this situation.
God damn it.
We are on the quest.
If you see Channing, make sure you let us know.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
We are live from Los Angeles because we are chasing Tatum.
We have to say a huge thank you to our friends at Air New Zealand's Grab A Seat.
They sorted out all of our flights to get over here,
so we couldn't have done that without them.
And it was a bloody ripping flight.
Loved it.
We're trying to make headway in this crazy city,
which is so big, by the way.
I don't know if you've been to Los Angeles before, but think about Auckland as a big place.
This thing feels like three times as big.
How many people live here?
More than the whole country of New Zealand.
I asked our tour guide, who took us up the Hollywood sign, and she goes, nine million.
Oh, hang on.
No, is it 19 million?
I don't know.
It's got a nine in it.
It's a lot.
There's a lot.
So it's between nine and 19 million.
It is quite a lot.
One of the first things we did when we got here is we got in touch with her, and she
did something really cool for us.
We were able to drive to the very top of the Hollywood sign, which I wasn't aware.
You can't do that.
No, you're not allowed to drive in there.
It's all gated.
It's all locked up. Private roads. It's all gated. It's all locked up.
Private roads.
It's a private road. There's heaps of people hiking. There's tons of people going up and
down. And it's quite a long hike.
Yeah. Two hours.
Two hours to the top.
And it's the most bougiest I think I've ever felt. We're all sitting in this van with blacked
out windows. She's unlocking the gates. We're driving past all these people who are sweating their balls off.
And we're literally,
you had the window down at one point
and people are looking in the window
and you roll your window up.
I had to put it up.
I was so uncomfortable.
You're like, I don't want to talk to anyone.
No, it wasn't like that.
It was like.
You're like, yes, it's me.
When we got up there,
we thought let's use this platform
to try and contact Channing
the old fashioned way just by shouting at him.
This is Bree at the summit of the Hollywood sign the day we arrived in LA.
Channing!
Channing, where are you?
We've come all this way.
We love you.
I was shortly taken away by police after that.
There were people there, and they were like,
oh my God, what is wrong with that girl?
Why does she sound so weird?
And I said, oh, she's Australian.
And then they're like, oh, that makes sense.
The person who took us up there, our special plug,
her name was Diana.
She has such a weird job.
She looks after the Hollywood sign.
She literally is the gatekeeper to the Hollywood sign,
the famous sign that is on the Hollywood Hills.
There's all these rules around it. She told us
it didn't used to say Hollywood, it used to say Hollywood
Land. Yeah. All these crazy stories
told us about how Hugh Hefner did a fundraiser
to get it repaired in the 90s or something
like that. Yeah, crazy stuff. My
favourite story though from the trip
was I asked, I said
when was the last time you guys repainted
it? Because it's obviously, you know, bright white.
And she said they repainted it back in, when was it, 2012?
Yeah.
They repainted it for the 90th anniversary back in 2012.
And this paint company came on board and they sponsored it.
And they ended up, yeah, donating all this paint to paint this sign.
And I said, oh, so is that the last time it's been painted?
And she goes, yeah, I've actually got a can of the Hollywood paint
in the back of my car.
Sometimes I just come up here and do touch-ups.
Yeah, listen to this.
Listen to this.
Is it true that you've got a tin of paint in the boot of your car
for touch-ups?
I do.
I do have a can of Hollywood sign paint.
In case something happens to the sign,
I will go down there with a paintbrush and fix it.
What is her life?
You've got to remember the sign's 40 feet high as well.
It's gigantic. So I said to her,
are you climbing it and
hanging off it with your tin of paint? Because she's just a
regular chick.
She was there on the weekend
helping us out, but she's not like
a tradesperson.
She said, no, I mainly
do the touch-ups around the bottom.
Very interesting.
It's totally cool. There were lots and lots of people
up there though, and we kind of stand
out at the moment on this mission. We've got these
fluorescent pink suits
with palm trees on them, because
if we're going to catch Channing's eye, he needs to
be able to spot us a long way off, right?
Thank God we get some attention.
We talked to a guy called Obi from Washington, D.C.
about our Channing Tatum mission.
Obi, I'm Clint.
How you doing, Clint?
This is Bree.
Bree, nice to meet you, Obi.
We've come all the way from New Zealand.
Okay, hit the accent.
We're looking for Channing Tatum.
Channing Tatum?
Yeah.
You got to go to Magic City, I guess, where he's at.
What's the obsession with Channing?
He follows Bree on Instagram.
Oh, he does?
Yeah.
Oh, so you're trying to get at him?
So, yeah, I'm trying to get here.
See if he's still got those moves?
See, I mean, Jessie J's great,
but she ain't got nothing on this suit.
You know what I mean?
Hey, I told her.
I was digging the threads
when it came up here.
If it's okay,
we'll just leave you our number.
And if you do see Channing,
you could just maybe just shoot us a text If I see him in DC maybe
Look, here's the thing, we've just landed in LA
We're pretty sure he's in Germany
Well, I'm going back to DC today
So if he's coming to DC, maybe
Well, can you let us know if you see him?
Yeah, we'll let him know
I'll shoot you on your Instagram
I'll follow you too
Yeah, sweet
So, worst thing that happens is you get a new follower
He sounds cool too He was cool Hasn't he got a cool accent? He's got a cool accent Oh, right, you're is you get a new follower. He sounds cool, too.
He was cool.
Hasn't he got a cool accent?
He's got a cool, like, no.
Oh, right, you trying to get at him?
Doesn't sound as cool when you do it.
Oh, girl.
Oh, right, Channing Tatum follows you, so you trying to get at him?
Whoa, that's real.
That's real.
Is that any good?
Was that good?
I feel like that was good.
I feel like I went into an accent there, and I feel like I.
It wasn't bad.
Yeah?
Yeah, I feel like you were, I don't know, possessed then by him.
The mission continues.
Next on the show, everything you've ever wanted to know about the inside of the Big Brother house.
We've got a special guest on the show.
There are some viral pictures of the mansion in its current state.
It does not look good.
It looks haunted.
We're going to talk to your friend, Heidi, from Big Brother next.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM. We are live from Los
Angeles at the moment. We are chasing
Tatum. How crazy is this article
that's going bonkers on
the internet today about the Big Brother house
that is abandoned?
It's one of these ones where you know
what it looked like, even if you didn't watch it that much.
You have these reference points in your mind where you
knew what the Big Brother house looks like. It looks
like rubbish. It's been like
it's completely gone to crap.
Like, it's been destroyed by people.
Yeah, it looks like there's been squatters living in
there. I mean, it's still on Dream
World property, but they've obviously just
let it go. You know what it looks like? It looks like those
photo things you see from
Chernobyl, where there's like abandoned theme
parks and stuff like that. Yeah, it's crazy, hey.
All the windows have been smashed, the pool
is full of algae, there's been a graffiti
artist go through called Sad Boy.
There's graffiti
all over the thing. You and I started
talking about it and we
started to reminisce about the Big Brother days
and how great that show was. I was
obsessed with it for a while. The bum dance?
Yeah, I mean, Sarah Marie, she had her time, didn't she? And then I said to you, Brother Days and how great that show was. I was obsessed with it for a while. The bum dance? Yeah.
I mean, Sarah Marie, she had her time, didn't she?
And then I said to you, I was like, I'd love to get one of the guys from Big Brother on and ask them questions you always wanted to know.
And one of my mates happens to be one of those washed up Big Brother contestants.
It's Heidi Anderson.
Hello, mate.
Hello.
Like, surely you could have at least got Sarah Marie or like Chrissy Swan or, you know, Ben or Tim Dormer or Tahan or someone.
I like people probably don't even remember who I am.
Mate, I don't have that much pull.
You're the best thing.
How plugged in is Brie?
Channing Tatum follows her on Instagram and she knows Big Brother contestants.
Heidi, it's great to have you on the show.
We're live from Los Angeles.
Just before we start, you don't happen to know where Channing Tatum is, do you?
Oh, my God.
Sure.
He's with Jessie J, isn't he, somewhere?
Yeah.
Like, noodling somewhere?
She ruined it for all of us, Heidi.
She did.
I thought you were in with a chance there, Bree.
You idiot.
No, you didn't.
Hey, Heidi.
Yes.
First, what season of Big Brother were you on?
Do you remember?
Well, I'm gutted that you don't remember because I thought you were my biggest fan, mate.
I was on season 10 and, like I said, so washed up.
I came out at, I think, week six or week seven.
Nah, you had a good run in the Big Brother house.
I've always wanted to know, Heidi, do you get paid to be in there?
Do contestants actually make money while they're in the house?
So they just paid our rent and stuff like that.
I think it was $500 a week.
Is that it?
Yeah, that we got paid.
And, like, do you remember back in the day they used to get cars at the end,
holidays, all that kind of stuff?
Yeah.
We actually got nothing.
So you came out with absolutely nothing.
I want to know, from being on that show, because it was a big deal back in the day.
Everyone was watching it.
When you came out, I'm pretty sure you had a boyfriend at the time.
You had a boyfriend when you were in there, didn't you?
Yeah, he's now my husband and we've got a baby on the way.
Oh, congratulations. Thank you. We got together like six weeks before I went in. They wanted me to go. No way. Yeah. And then I met him and took off with him.
And yeah, I told them like that. I gave them the ultimatum. I said, I'm not going to hook
up with people in the house. So if you want to get rid of me, then, you know. Get rid
of me. Yeah, but know. Get rid of me.
Yeah, but they didn't.
They kept me in and now they're probably wishing they got rid of me.
We're talking to Bree's mate Heidi, who is an ex-contestant of Big Brother.
I've got to ask about the naked stuff.
Like, I don't think they would get away with it anymore.
I think the world has changed to put cameras in the showers and just say,
we're going to film you and we're going to put it on TV after
hours, big brother uncut.
Was that really uncomfortable for you?
Do you know what? I think
once you get it, I remember like when we were
in there, it's the same in the toilet.
Like there's cameras in the toilet.
So for the first few
days, I remember a couple of the girls, we couldn't even
poop because they were so upset
and obviously they couldn't'd been on camera.
And so, girls
were getting laxatives and stuff
so that they could go because they were so constipated.
And then
in the hours, a lot of people did
end up wearing swimmers and then
as time went on, no
one cared anymore or like, you know, we'd have
a big drunken night or whatever and
everyone would end up in the showers naked together anyway.
So you just kind of got over it.
But the creepy thing was, was when you'd get out and then you'd go to the after party and
then there was all the cameramen that would be like, ha ha ha, yeah, I used to film you
when you're in the showers.
Oh!
That was when you went, oh my God, I forgot that people probably have a bank somewhere of us.
Of your nudies.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
And last question from me, with all that in mind, in 2019,
do you think you'd do it again?
Oh, it's a tough one because I had real bad social anxiety
when I came out of the house.
I don't know what a part of me wants to say yes
because it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
I made some awesome friendships,
but then the way that I screwed myself for years.
I didn't watch it.
I've never seen myself on the show.
Really?
Because I was so embarrassed and scared.
So, yeah.
Just hit up Bree.
She's got all the tapes.
I've got all the tapes, especially the naked stuff.
Oh, God.
All right.
That is a firsthand look inside life inside the Big Brother house.
And you know what?
There's not many people that can give you that insight because it's very rare that, you know, people were in that house.
Google those photos too.
It's freaky.
The Big Brother house, the photos have been released today that the whole thing
has been abandoned
and completely,
basically destroyed.
It looks like a bombsite.
Heidi, thank you so much.
Thanks, Heidi.
Thanks, guys.
And kiss,
chug and toad
and follow me
with a big tongue.
Woo!
Oh yeah,
I'll give him a tonguey for you.
I don't think you can say that.
Too late.
Next on the show,
you're going to hear
Brie wee her pants.
That's not a joke. We went on a ride you're going to hear Brie wee her pants. That's not a joke.
We went on a ride today at Universal Studios,
and Brie came out afterwards and she said she did some wees in her pants.
Yep.
I've got a weak bladder, it turns out.
ZDM's Brie and Clint, the podcast.
Today, because we're in LA, obviously Channing Tatum, big movie star,
we thought let's go to Universal.
That's where they make all the big movies.
He would have been there at some point.
Maybe we can get a lead.
They're constantly filming big movies there,
and we don't know what his next project is,
so there's a high chance he could be on one of the sound stages
at Universal Pictures.
And we also heard it was really fun.
Oh, yeah.
We rocked up at Universal, and we did the Hollywood tour,
which you go through and you see where all these big, famous films were filmed.
Yeah, you see like Jaws and Jurassic Park and all this stuff.
It's amazing.
Fast and the Furious.
So cool.
We went down Wisteria Lane where they shoot Disparate Housewives.
It was very cool.
And one of the attractions there is a Walking Dead attraction, which I am obsessed with that show.
And I said to you guys, I said,
I really want to go do the Walking Dead thing.
I don't really know what it was,
because you can do like the simulated rides
and then there's roller coasters.
And I dragged you guys into the Walking Dead attraction.
Yeah.
And if you haven't seen that show,
it's where there's a zombie apocalypse and it's terrifying.
It's kind of like if you've ever been to Spookers in Auckland, but just maybe it's more intense.
It's just next level.
This is what it is.
It's Spookers on a Hollywood budget.
Yes.
So it is literally like you're in the TV show, The Walking Walking Dead and you start off in the hospital and it is terrifying.
Producer Ellie's nearly crying as we're walking through.
Which I noticed straight away.
Oh, all right, mate.
And as a gentleman, I took it on myself to remove her from the situation.
I didn't want her to be uncomfortable and I didn't want her to feel like she had to do the ride,
so I volunteered to take her out.
You were pushing her in front of you at one point.
You were like, go first, Ellie.
I don't want to go.
I'm jumpy.
Okay?
I'm a jumpy guy.
You and Ellie, legit, me and Ben were out the front.
I've turned around just as we were getting into the really scary part where people are jumping out at you,
turned around.
You and Ellie have bailed.
Nowhere to be seen.
You've exited the whole
attraction. Yeah, we went out the secret exit.
And let's pick up the audio where Ben
and I, poor Ben and I, have realised
that we're completely on our own
walking through this terrifying
Walking Dead experience.
They left. They left. They left us.
Don't touch it. Don't touch it.
I don't want to go! You guys first!
This is so messed up!
AHHHHH!
AHHHHH! NO!
OH MY GOD!
I think I pissed a little bit, I'm not even joking!
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!
OH MY GOD NO!
NOOOO!
NAH!
OH MY GOD! AHHHHH! Oh, no. Oh, my God.
Why is no one else screaming?
Holy shit.
I hate myself.
We've got a number one and a number two coming out of you on that ride.
Mate, Ben and I, we literally had to sit down.
We were that terrified.
And as I said before, so gutted I missed it
but producer Ellie's needs
came first
and I was
I took that one for the team
God you're full of crap
I feel like I got to enjoy it
through you
yeah I bet
you know what I'm satisfied
don't worry about it
hey next on the show
do you want to play
a game with us
we're going to play
our game Trash or Treasure
all you've got to do
is call up
we'll explain the rules to you
it's antiques roadshow style straightforward, and we'll tell you how
you play next. Bree and Clint, ZM.
Bree and Clint, the podcast, ZM.
We are live from Los Angeles. We are chasing Tatum, but we're also still playing our game,
so let's have a go at Trash or Treasure.
Trash or Treasure.
Pretty simple game. We give you an item from Antiques Roadshow.
We let you hear the description
and then you have to tell us whether it's
trash worth under five grand
or treasure worth over five grand.
Everybody loves to think that they're able
to pick something in these, so that's what we're giving you
the chance to do. Renee, hi.
Hello, how are you?
Very well.
You know your way around an antique store?
Do you know a bit of treasure if you see it?
My dad's got a lot of treasure slash junk, so here's hoping.
All right.
Let's give you your first item.
Listen carefully to this and then you'll need to decide trash or treasure.
The 335 is an iconic model for Gibson. It was a guitar that was started
in 1958 and is still made up to this day. This one is a 68, I believe. This is as nice an example
as you will find. Ooh, a 1965 Gibson guitar. I'm going to say Treasure. Treasure.
Lock in Treasure.
Let's go to the audio.
I think a retail value of this guitar would be somewhere around $7,500 to $8,000.
Wow.
Nice work.
Well done, Renee.
That's one in the bank.
You nailed it, Renee.
You just need to get two out of three correct to take the game.
If you don't, Kylie, who's standing by, will take the prize for doing absolutely nothing,
but you can seal the deal here item number two listen carefully Were you able to hear that?
Kind of.
Something about a cup.
It was a cup.
Something about a cup.
Yeah, it was a cup made out of a royal ingot of gold.
So it's a cup made out of gold.
It's a gold cup.
Do you want to have a stab in the dark with this?
It's a gold cup.
I'm hoping I'm going to go treasure then.
Yeah, I would too. Based then. Yeah, I would too.
Based off that explanation, I would too.
Let's see if the audio's any better.
It's not.
No, it's not.
It's worth 25 to 30 grand.
You got it.
Renee, you've picked up the prize.
Even with technical difficulties.
Hey, look, it must have got caught in the line
between here and Los Angeles and Auckland.
And God, we're international now, girl.
These things are going to happen, okay?
These things are going to happen.
You wait there.
We'll see if we can find you a prize.
Congrats.
Awesome.
Thank you.
Bye.
Okay, no problems.
Next on the show, we're going to get a news update.
Then after that, someone on the show's had a bit of an accident already.
There's been a bit of an issue with our trip here to Los Angeles.
Let's just say travel insurance has to be used.
Yeah, big time already.
We'll do that after this.
ZM.
ZM, Spree and Clint, the podcast.
That's Post Malone.
And wow, rapping about G-Wagons.
We've seen a few of those in Los Angeles
while we've been here over the last 48 hours
because we are live from LA right now.
Spree. One year ago, here over the last 48 hours because we are live from LA right now.
One year ago, the Channing Tatum started following you on Instagram.
Brianna's amazing.
Now, you and Clint have flown to the other side of the world to try to meet him, to see if it was all one big accident.
After one day in Los Angeles, have you found him?
Yeah, nah.
Better luck tomorrow.
It is a big no.
If you've been listening since the start of the show, you'll know that.
If you've just jumped in the car going, oh, wow,
I wonder if Brie and Clint have done the impossible.
I wonder if they've already got Channing Tatum.
It's fine.
That'd be too easy.
It would be too easy.
We've only been here for a short amount of time.
And to be honest, if we met him already, we'd probably just have to fly home.
Exactly.
You know, the mission would be over.
Yeah, it's fine.
And no one wants that.
We've got to get a free holiday out of this thing as well.
So the pursuit continues, but we will keep you informed along the way.
We do have some good plans of how we're going to find him.
Look, the trip has been awesome,
apart from one event that took place on the first night we got here.
Look, we decided we wanted to go out and explore LA.
We wanted to go see the sights,
and we actually ended up going to dinner at The Ivy,
which is a super famous and popular restaurant for celebrities.
It's meant to be a celebrity spotting location.
I saw one guy who looked a little bit like Michael Cera
and had a really expensive pasta, and that was about it.
But it wasn't him.
We saw no celebrities.
And it wasn't good pasta.
I'm going to come out and say it.
It wasn't that good.
It was okay.
It was all right.
It was no Bella Verona from the food court in Ponsonby.
It's no La Pochetta.
No, it definitely isn't.
And then after we went to dinner, we decided we'd go have a look at a few of the bars in
West Hollywood.
Yeah.
And we were kicking around.
We had a group.
You got some friends that were kicking around with us.
Some Kiwis over here trying to crack it in the acting scene.
Yeah.
Which was cool.
And we ended up landing at this one bar called The Flaming Saddle.
Is that what it was called?
Yeah, and it was an interesting bar.
I mean, there was people climbing poles to the roof.
It was the most outrageous gay bar I've ever been in.
There was a half-naked cowboy swinging from a saddle on the roof.
It was insane, but a very, very fun time.
Very fun, yeah.
And we had a great time, and the bar's closed quite early here,
so we left, I think, just after 2 a.m.
And as we were leaving the bar, I have made the devastating discovery
that my phone is no longer in my bag.
Yeah.
Which is a weird one these days because I think it's very rare
that you actually lose your phone because you're so conscious
of where it is all the time. I think it's actually quite hard to lose a phone these days. I think it's very rare that you actually lose your phone because you're so conscious of where it is all the time.
I think it's actually quite hard to lose a phone these days.
I think it is too.
I, for some history, have never ever lost a phone, ever.
But at first we thought that's what had happened.
Yeah, I thought I'd lost it and I couldn't believe that I'd lost it
because, I mean, it's something that's attached to your hand most of the time.
Then other things started happening.
And then it was weird because the next day we found out that your friend that was with
us had lost her phone as well.
And then another friend of mine who was with us had also lost her phone.
All at the same time, all at the same bar.
We went back to the bar the next day.
We went back there yesterday and we went in there and we said, hey, you know, we've
lost a phone.
Have you guys seen it?
And as we were walking into the bar,
there's a sign that is at the front entry that says,
look out, phone pickpockets at work.
What kind of piece of crap is stealing someone's phone?
And as soon as I saw that, I knew that I'd been done.
You can't even use it.
Like, you can't even use the phones.
People just lock them, blacklist them,
and then what are you actually going to do with it?
So what do you do?
What do they do?
Do they pull it apart for parts?
Some people have suggested parts,
but where's the secondhand iPhone parts market?
Where's the secondhand Galaxy screen market?
I just don't know if it exists.
I don't get it because I went on to find my iPhone
and I've locked the screen straight away. And, yeah, know if it exists. I don't get it. Because I went on to find my iPhone and I've locked the screen straight
away. And yeah.
And then it was gone.
Never to be seen again. Very lucky
that Samsung have hooked us up on this trip so you do
have a backup phone. Well, to be honest, I was so
glad that I had that phone and
not my brand new Samsung.
Because I would have been devastated to lose
this brand new phone. And it's okay because
someone else booked travel insurance for you.
I know.
This is the thing.
This is Bree who up until six months ago didn't even have car insurance.
I didn't even know.
So you're very upset about this.
I was devastated.
I had a little cry.
And I said to you, it's a work trip.
We've got travel insurance.
And then I kind of relaxed and went, oh, thank God.
Work has to deal with this now.
Have you ever called on your travel insurance before?
Because it's the sort of thing you never really want until you need it.
I didn't know it existed.
It's an annoying purchase at first, but then when you can call on it,
oh, it's magic.
I didn't know it existed.
You didn't know travel insurance existed?
No, my mum always used to book hours for us when we went on family trips.
You really do need a minder sometimes, don't you?
I do.
I do need a handler.
We want to ask you this afternoon on 0800DIALZM,
when did you have to call on your travel insurance?
Where were you?
Yeah, where were you?
What happened?
Yeah.
And what did you have to claim?
Did you get a whole new suitcase full of clothes out of it?
Maybe you had to go to the hospital.
Oh, those are expensive too.
Yeah, they are.
Did you know a lot of your travel insurance
covers you for a million dollars worth of medical bills?
Are you serious?
Not all of them, but a lot of them.
That's the limit they go up to
because it can cost so much in those countries.
Yeah, well, you don't know what's going to happen.
Let's see what we get.
Oh, $800 at M.
You can text 9696 as well.
We want to know,
when did you have to use your travel insurance this afternoon?
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM. Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM.
Bree and Clint, we're in America at the moment.
We're on our big mission to find Channing Tatum,
and we are rapidly learning the value of travel insurance.
I had an absolute shock.
Well, actually, you know what?
It wasn't my fault.
No.
I didn't lose my phone.
I got pickpocketed at a bar on the first night we were here.
They stole my phone.
They stole your friend's phone.
And then they also stole my friend's phone.
They also stole my friend's ID and all her cards and all that as well.
I am just thanking my lucky stars because my phone was right next to my passport in my bag.
This person hit three of us in one group in one go.
They must have some serious skills.
You're okay because you're covered with travel insurance
that you didn't know you had that someone else organised for you.
Thank you, work.
We are getting some outrageous text messages from people
and Bree goes, God, no, I think travel insurance
is actually pretty important now.
I think I might get that the next time I travel.
Like this person, they said, I got bitten by a potentially
rabid dog on a night out in Croatia.
One of the vaccines I needed cost 4K.
Oh, Jesus.
Because you're not subsidised by their government.
And God, you never want to have to go,
do I have enough money to save my own life?
Yeah, jeez, you just have to do it, don't you?
Hey, Craig, when did you have to use your travel insurance?
Hey, yeah, I was in Miami, Florida,
and I went over the handlebars of a pushbike.
So I had to get
nine stitches in my chin, which cost
just under a thousand US dollars.
Are you serious? With nine stitches?
Yes.
An ambulance ride is a thousand dollars
so I got a nine dollar Uber ride to the hospital
with blood coming out of my chin.
Shouldn't use your insurance, man.
Shouldn't have gone for that ambulance.
Hey, Emma, when did you have to use your travel insurance?
I left my passport on a bus between Hungary and Croatia,
and this was a few days before Christmas.
And so I ended up flying my friend who was with me to London
during the middle of all the Gatwick drone drama
to pick up a new
passport and she got in a few minutes before they closed.
Cost me about five grand in flights a few days before Christmas.
No, but you had travel insurance.
I have travel insurance, but not everything was covered under my policy.
That hurts.
This is a bit of a different text on the old travel insurance
topic. Someone's texting
and said, I didn't need to use it
but I had my breast implants insured
after my surgery in Thailand.
Good idea. Yeah, oh well they're a big investment.
You might as well insure them. Yeah, they're an asset now, aren't they?
And always fly with those carry-on.
Yeah, exactly. You want to keep them
close. What about this one? Someone on the
text machine said,
my sister had her phone stolen out of her hand in Bali by someone on a scooter while she was FaceTiming.
That is brutal.
Can you imagine?
Imagine if they carried on the phone call too.
And you know what the pain about that one is
and why they would do it?
Because the phone's unlocked.
The phone's unlocked at that stage so they can get in
and they can change the password and stuff. They like it. They wanted it. They grabbed it. Last one's Let. The phone's unlocked at that stage so they can get in and they can change the password
and stuff.
They like it.
They wanted it.
They grabbed it.
Last one's Leticia.
Hey, Leticia.
Hey, how are you?
Good.
Thanks, Leticia.
When did you have to use your travel insurance?
It was ridiculous.
I was in Canada last year and I bit down on a nacho chip and I cracked my tooth right
up to the bone and had to go to a dental surgeon.
It cost $2,500
but Trash Insurance
covered all of it.
You broke your tooth
on a nacho.
I know this is
a sensitive topic
but I can't not
make this pun.
Holy guacamole.
It was nacho,
not my chip.
That is nacho,
nacho good time.
You nearly had it.
Leticia, thank you for your call.
So glad I learned about travel insurance.
Yeah, well done.
We got something out of this.
And I'm 29.
You've always had it.
It's just someone else has always done it for you.
Very true.
Okay, birthday banger time.
Do you want to know what yours is?
Call us now.
0800 dial ZM. We'll play after Billie Eilish. ZM, Spree and Clint. Very true. Okay, birthday banger time. Do you want to know what yours is? Call us now. 0800DIALZM. We'll
play after Billie Eilish. ZM's Bree
and Clint, the podcast. It's
Drax Project, who I believe might be
floating around Los Angeles as well. We're going to try and
link up with them. Of course, we're here chasing
Tatum at the moment, but we're still broadcasting
into New Zealand with your birthday bangers.
So let's do it.
We get your birthdays and we figure So let's do it. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Free and Cleanse. Birthday banger.

Hello, Chad.
Yo, hey.

Okay, Chad, you were 16 in 2007 on the 26th of July
and on that day, this was number one.
Oh.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my gosh.
Evamore.
What the hell happened to Evamore?
Lights surrounding you.
Do you remember that one, Chad?
Yeah, I do remember that.
I didn't know it was that old, though.
Time sticks up on you, mate, and that's what this game shows.
Kiwi band, right?
Kiwi band.
They were as big as Lorde at one stage in New Zealand, at least.
They were on the TV One ad.
Oh, they were all over Aussie at the time.
They had everything.

Hello, mate.
What's your birthday?
My birthday is 17th of December, 1994.
Okay, Kali, you were 16 in 2010 on the 17th of December.
And back in 2010, this was number one.
Oh, yes!
Woo!
Dude!
You're into that?
Oh, of course.
That takes me back.
Yeah, that's a banger.
It is a banger.
I just love Carly's reaction.
Me too.
That's the best one.
You've got a great attitude.
I love you.
I always did sit about to play even more,
like surrounding you. But I like the way you've... Yeah, got a great attitude. I love you. I was dead set about to play even more light surrounding you,
but I like the way you've... Yeah, I love
your attitude. Should we
flip it? Because I think even more is the
more standout track, but we've got to go
with Carly's track, right? I do love that
track. Oh, yeah, definitely.
Definitely. It's been a good day
today. Finland
has won the Ice Hockey World Championships
today as well, and let's celebrate for that. It's all coming up world championships today as well.
And let's celebrate for that.
It's all coming up to you today, mate.
Let's celebrate.
This is for you.
Here you go.

ZM, Brian Clay, that is for Kalia from Finland.
Finland? Finland.
Finland.
Finland.
That's his birthday banger.
Beating out, controversially,
Evermore's light surrounding you.
I do love this song.
I love it too, I love it too,
but it's brought back painful memories
because they're a Kiwi band
who called themselves Australian in an interview.
That's off.
I don't like that.
Yeah, I think maybe that was the beginning of the end for Evermore.
But they have some rock solid tunes.
This was an absolute banger.
Yeah, it was.
But that's the power of a good attitude.
Carly's reaction to his pink song meant that we had to go with that one.
He was celebrating. That's why we had to play.
And his song fit his celebration.
Yeah, it did. Yeah, really well.
Perfect. We are in LA
and we're chasing Tatum.
I need to bring up something that happened on the
Hollywood strip yesterday. Next.
You
copped an absolute
roasting. No, I was a
victim. An absolute roasting from one of the locals.
We'll do it next.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
We actually caught up with some Kiwis last night
who are over here doing some fun things.
Like Saatchi are here, the guys from Saatchi.
Which was really interesting because Saatchi's manager,
his wife, said to us that she saw Channing Tatum
two weeks ago at the market,
the local market here in LA.
That was a great inn.
And then you never know where Kiwi's going to pop up.
There are another couple of guys there who have been working on Benny's music with her.
Yeah.
So we're like, oh, have you guys heard Benny?
She's so good in New Zealand.
They're like, dude, we made the songs with her.
Crazy, eh?
How crazy is that?
Yeah.
But that's the thing when you go traveling and you find Kiwis all over the place.
And they all just congregate together.
We have been looking for Channing.
Everything we do is for you guys.
Every In-N-Out burger we dine at,
every Universal Studios ride we go on,
that's for you guys.
It's in pursuit of Channing Tatum.
We think you deserve him on your radio,
so we're going to find him.
No, no, no, don't thank us.
No, honestly, we don't mind. we're going to find him. No, no, no, no. Don't thank us. No.
Honestly, we don't mind.
We're going to do that for you.
And we've been doing everything we can,
including heading down to the Hollywood Strip,
where if you've ever been to Los Angeles before,
it's weird and wonderful is how I'd describe it.
I loved it.
I thought all the weird people down there make it what it is.
What about the impersonators?
Oh, the impersonator that was doing Alan. Alan from The Hangover? Very good. What about the impersonators? Oh, the impersonator that was doing Alan.
Alan from The Hangover?
Very good.
What about the impersonator who was doing Captain America?
A little disappointing.
Some are good.
What about Wolverine?
Wolverine was all right.
Wolverine was pretty good.
Wolverine looked like Hugh Jackman,
but if he hadn't done any of the workouts.
Yeah, like a smaller Hugh Jackman.
Yeah, like little baby Wolverine, Pupparine.
We also headed out there.
Look, I had great plans of talking to people
with my sexy New Zealand accent, you see,
because we're out here.
The Kiwi accent has just been voted
the most attractive accent in the world.
I was like, damn, I've got a superpower.
I'm going to blow people away with this kind of thing.
We were out there with our microphones.
And then all of a sudden sudden the tables get flipped on me
in a way that I was not expecting.
Well, I had this idea
to ask the locals
can they tell the difference?
Between you and me?
Because obviously
we can tell the difference
between your accent
and my accent.
Yours is Australian,
mine is Kiwi.
Very different to us
but can Americans
tell the difference
and one local said this.
So one of us is Aussie.
Well, you're Kiwi Aussie.
God damn it.
You talk like shit.
No, really.
I love that Clint comes all the way to Hollywood and gets roasted.
Excuse me, what?
He said you talk like shit.
I don't think, surely not.
Ben, can you play that audio from the top, please, mate?
Can we rewind that, play it from the top?
So one of us is Aussie.
Well, you're Kiwi Aussie.
God damn it.
You talk like shit.
No, really.
I love that Clint comes all the way to Hollywood and gets roasted.
That's racist.
It's racist against the New Zealand accent.
You can't just say that every time someone...
Yes, I can. Yes, I can.
Yes, I can.
And I will.
I will.
I will.
I'll defend...
I've got to defend Kiwis.
The look on Clint's face...
I wasn't expecting it.
You were so devastated because you were keen on that guy
and he was not having a bar of you.
I was not keen on him.
He told...
You said you wanted to use your sexy New Zealand accent.
Far out.
It was bad, wasn't it?
He told me he works in radio and he didn't hire a New Zealander
because he didn't like the way that he talked.
I thought people loved us.
I thought we were adorable.
What about Flight of the Conchords?
What about Taika Waititi?
I thought this is the new thing.
We're in bloody Thor Ragnarok.
Mate, I've got your back.
That guy was such a duck.
We're live from Los Angeles as we continue to chase Tatum.
We're chasing Tatum.
We're looking for Channing Tatum.
Have you seen Channing Tatum?
We've come a long way.
We literally, we're dressed in these ridiculous suits at the moment,
and that's the question we literally just ask everyone.
Yeah, have you seen Channing Tatum?
And they think we're crazy.
We've got to say thanks to our friends at Samsung
who have helped us make this trip happen.
In fact, this is quite cool
because your chance to win yourself
a brand new Samsung Galaxy S10 right now
on our Facebook page.
There's a post up there.
All you have to do is predict
when we're going to meet Channing Tatum.
And you might predict that we don't meet him at all.
That's completely fine.
You can try and predict when this week, if we will or if we won't meet Channing Tatum,
and you can win that new S10 from Samsung.
Yeah, the closest two will win that phone.
And if there's a bunch of people who say you won't meet him at all and that's the result,
well, first of all, thanks for the negativity.
But second of all, we'll do a random draw or something
after we finish crying.
With all those people.
We went down to the Hollywood Boulevard
just to get a sense of the place
and see if anyone down there had seen Channing Tatum.
Crazy place.
Like one of the most intense, vibrant, noisy places I've ever been.
So this is, if you haven't been to LA before,
this is where all the Hollywood stars are on the boardwalk.
And you can go there, you can get photos with them.
We had a photo with Vin Diesel's photo.
It was a big moment for me.
It's actually really...
Or Italian Jesus, as she calls him.
Literally.
It's really interesting to hear how those stars come about.
Yeah.
Because the stars actually have to apply for them themselves.
And pay for them.
And so then it goes to a board, right?
Yeah.
And then they come back and they say, yes, you're worthy of a star or no, you're not.
And then if you are, you can pay us 30 grand.
30 grand a year.
Every single year.
Ongoing for it to be maintained.
Also, sometimes they'll nominate you.
So it's like the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce or something
and they'll get together and they'll go,
oh, I think Brie deserves a star.
And then they'll say to you, hey, congratulations,
you get a star, give us some money.
Because there's celebrities that have turned it down.
Like Leonardo DiCaprio apparently got offered a star
and he said no thanks.
He's so cool.
He is very cool.
That makes him even cooler.
The fact that he turned down his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame,
that is so cool.
Very cool.
And we were asking everybody if they had seen Channing Tatum
down at the Hollywood Boulevard.
We weren't expecting this guy,
who I'm pretty sure has no idea who Channing Tatum is.
Check this out.
We're on the Hollywood Strip.
Look, we've come all the way from New Zealand to find Channing Tatum.
You know him, right?
No.
No, but do you know of him?
No.
You don't know-
Never heard of Channing Tatum.
No.
Magic Mike?
No. Magic Mike?
The Vow?
No.
Step Up?
No.
Never.
Channing Tatum.
No.
Six Pack.
What the f***? Where? Where's this coming from?
You don't know who Channing Tatum is? No. We this coming from? You don't know who Channing Tatum is?
No.
We're in trouble.
Who doesn't know who Channing Tatum is?
He literally lives in Hollywood, that guy.
I know.
He was outside the wax museum where Channing Tatum's statue is.
Anyway.
Mind blown.
That guy was absolutely no help.
And he was very steamed.
The journey continues. Bree and Clint, sit in. Sit in. Bree very steamed. The journey continues.
Bree and Clint, ZM.
