ZM!
Let's go, go, go!
Now let me see your vans!
ZM's Brie and Clint.
Good afternoon New Zealand, Brie and Clint.
Happy International Pickle Day.
Are we going to keep going with this?
No, but it's International Pickle Day.
I'm obsessed with those pickles you told me about.
Oh yeah.
Guys.
This is not a paid post.
This is hashtag not sponsored.
Not sponsored.
If you want to taste the best pickle you've ever had,
and you can vouch for that, right?
So I've been on the hunt for the best pickles that taste like,
McDonald's pickles are the best.
You want a McDonald's pickle?
I want a McDonald's pickle.
You want the pickle they do in the cheeseburger, right?
Yes, and I've been on the hunt for about 10 years.
This is what they're called.
Grab a pen and a paper.
This is what you need to buy in the shops.
McClure's pickles.
Get the garlic.
Mm-hmm.
I think garlic and dill.
Yeah, that's good.
The spicy ones are quite nice.
I haven't had the spicy.
I like the spicy ones
are cut more like the Macca's ones.
McClure's, we love you.
They're amazing.
They're in Detroit.
I don't know if they'll hear you.
Hey, the radio waves go a long way.
I met the guy who invented them once.
That's how much I love those pickles.
Well, he invented the pickle.
No, he invented McClure's pickles.
Do you know what a pickle actually is?
It's a cucumber.
Tiny baby cucumber, yeah.
Yeah, pickled.
Anyway, happy pickle day.
What a good day.
What a great day.
What a great day.
Also a great day today if you're looking for Friday Jam's live tickets
we've got another double pass to
give away thanks to our friends at Burger King
in the Negotiator at 5 o'clock.
If you've missed this yesterday, super tense
game. You'll go on air with somebody else and
you will have 30 seconds to decide between
the two of you who gets the double
pass. It's really tough
I'm hoping some people can work it out today
and someone gets that double pass. Hopefully
we get some selfless people who can
give up the tickets if someone, you know, has a
good enough reason. Yeah. If you want to play that
five o'clock, we'll do the negotiator for
free Friday Jams live tickets because that's
this Sunday. Up next, a bit of a
personal one, but I want to talk to the
people out there who have savings
accounts. Okay. It could
be a tiny amount or it could be a massive amount in savings.
I want to know how much.
The woman who just got car insurance for the first time
talks financial advice next on Zed-In.
Brie and Clint on Zed-In.
One of my really good mates, Sophie, was visiting me last week.
She's a hoot.
She is a good time.
You've got crazy friends, can I say? I know, I know. She's a hoot. She is a good time. You've got crazy
friends. I know.
She's an interesting one.
She's 33 and she looks
me in the face and she says,
have you got savings?
And I was like, what do you mean? She's like, you know, like a
savings account. I said, of course
I do. I'm old enough. Like I'm
nearly, you know, I'm 28.
I'm getting up there.
I need savings.
You couldn't bring yourself to say nearly 30 just then.
I don't want to say it.
You're in denial.
I don't want to say it.
Because you are nearly 30.
Okay, yes, I know.
You're not nearly 20.
All right.
Okay.
Anyway, I'm old enough that I should have a certain amount of savings in the bank.
Yeah.
Or at least be putting something in there.
Or be putting in, you know, however much it is, doesn't matter.
I should be putting some aside.
I should be, you know, old enough to be doing that.
Yeah.
She goes, how much?
I said, oh, you know, thousands.
She goes, like, 10,000?
I said, probably, yeah.
I looked at her and I said, how much do you have? She goes,
nothing. I said, what do you mean you have nothing? She's like, I spend it all on clothes.
Bearing in mind, she's 33.
33.
And I'm assuming she's been employed full time for a while.
She's been employed her whole life.
She's had good jobs.
Had good jobs. She worked
in radio actually. She doesn't have to
support one of her family members or anything like that?
No. Just a normal
33 year old. She's not paying child support to some
guy who got full custody of the
baby? No. She hasn't had big
court fees to pay. Just normal
everyday 33 year old.
She didn't buy a Volkswagen Golf
because it looked cool but it actually had major mechanical issues and it just turned into a giantold. She didn't buy a Volkswagen Golf because it looked cool,
but it actually had major mechanical issues
and it just turned into a giant headache.
She's got a Mazda 2.
She sounds like she's doing everything right.
Except for the part where you take a little bit of your pay
and you put it in another account.
I kind of said to her, I was like,
you don't put a certain amount of your pay
every time you get it into a savings account.
She goes, I've never done that.
Some people don't.
Some people just don't.
That gave me, can I just be honest, so much anxiety
because I'm someone who I like to be prepared.
I think you and I in this sense are a bit nerdy though.
Yeah.
And they say, because did you know that they say that you should go thirds
with your income?
Wait, so how much is that? So that you should go thirds with your income? A third of it should go.
Wait, so how much is that?
So a third should go to your living cost.
Okay.
That's your food, your rent, that sort of thing.
A third to.
So say you get paid like $700 a week.
Yeah, you should be putting a third of that into savings.
Oh my God.
Okay, I definitely don't.
No, I don't.
But that's the one part of my life I feel like I've actually got together.
That's what they say you should do.
Yeah, yeah.
But even if you're just putting, I don't know, $10 a week.
She's 33.
She'd been putting $10 a week into the account.
She probably would be, you know, she'd be somewhere.
Yeah, even if it's $100 from every pay or $50.
Times are tough, though.
I know.
How about gas?
And, I mean, if you've got kids, then I get it.
Yeah.
You know, obviously.
Do you have savings?
No, I have children.
Which is fair. Yeah, yeah. I mean Do you have savings? No I have children. Which is fair. Yeah yeah. I mean if you've
got a house fair. But I want
to ask the people on 0800 dials
at M and it's a personal question
and we can change your name.
I want to know how old you are.
Yeah. And how much you've gotten savings.
Oh that is a personal question.
I'll say how much I've got. It's like asking how much someone
gets paid. Kind of.
Yeah. But you can ask it. I want to ask it. I'll reveal how much I've got. It's like asking how much someone gets paid. Kind of. Yeah. But you can ask it.
I want to ask it.
I'll reveal how much I've got.
Does this count KiwiSaver?
No.
Doesn't count because someone else does that for you.
Yeah.
So it doesn't count KiwiSaver.
Doesn't count KiwiSaver.
So this is money that you've put into another account.
Yes.
That you could just go and grab and spend if you wanted to.
If you wanted to.
But your self-control
has allowed you to have X amount of money in a different account.
Yep.
Okay, I'm really interested.
Me too.
You can text us on 9696, your bank details, and how much of that money we can have.
No, how much money and your age.
Yes.
How much money do you have in savings and what's your age?
Money.
It can ruin people's lives.
A lack of money can ruin your life. Money. It can ruin people's lives.
Well, a lack of money can ruin your life.
Yeah.
So can too much money.
Exactly right.
How much do you have in your savings account?
And how old are you?
My friend Sophie confronted me.
She was like, how much do you have in your savings?
I was like, I definitely have a savings account.
And she informed me that she's got nothing.
She's 33.
33. And she's just never bothered.
That's it, right?
It's not like she's had financial hardship or anything.
No, no.
She's invested her money in clothes.
Into clothes.
Like she, I can't even.
She was here for like four days or something last week.
Yep.
Every time I saw her, she had a different bag in her hand.
And it's not even like, you know, she went to Cotton On or something.
Nah, boo.
She was buying like Versace and like crazy designer brand stuff.
She was not buying Versace.
She bought a Versace bag.
Where did she, where from?
Where's a Versace store?
Okay, well, I don't know brands.
She went to Karen Walker, okay?
She bought a Deadly Ponies bag, maybe. Okay, all right. So you're asking a deadly ponies bag maybe.
Okay.
All right.
So you're asking a pretty personal question this afternoon.
Yeah, personal question.
How old are you and how much do you have in the bank?
You're up first, Tash.
Hi.
Hi.
What have you got, Tash?
I've got 10 grand, but I never used to ever have any money until about like a year ago
and then I was like, shit, I should probably start saving.
Yeah, I had the same feeling.
So you've been saving for a year and you've got 10K.
Yeah, it's actually amazing how much it adds up to
if you start putting it away slowly.
How old are you?
That's the other important bit.
Oh, 23.
Oh, you're killing it.
You're killing it.
I'm quite proud of myself.
Yeah, well done.
Now go on an overseas trip.
10 grand will get you an amazing trip.
Exactly my plan.
Tash, you've done so well.
Time to treat yourself.
Yeah, you treat yourself.
Okay, this is fun.
Hi, Ben.
Hi, Ben.
Hey, Jan.
Let's start with your age first, shall we?
Yes.
I'm 20.
20?
Okay, so you're young.
I wouldn't expect you to have anything.
I'm going to say nothing.
I'd expect you to be a student and getting your study link each week
and not having enough to put aside for anything.
Not quite.
How much do you have?
I've got $23,000.
$23,000?
Yeah.
Did you have a rich grandparent die?
No, just grew up working.
So when did you start working when you were about six?
About nine.
Are you serious?
That's illegal.
What was your first job when you were nine?
Worked on the parents' farm.
Yeah.
Me too.
My dad never paid me for it, though.
Yeah, I got paid $10 an hour.
Yeah, so you've got work ethic.
What do you think about people who are around your age
and are complaining because they don't have any savings.
Oh, depends on what they've done in their lifetime, you know,
whether they're travelling or not.
Yeah, okay.
Interesting.
What are you going to do with your money?
Oh, that's a good question.
Probably look to invest.
Yeah.
Or buy a motorised esky.
Oh, I don't know.
It's been the most responsible 20-year-old.
He's very responsible.
In New Zealand?
Let's go with Hope.
Hi, Hope.
Hi, Hope.
Hi.
How much is in your savings account?
But let's start with your age first.
Okay, I'm 23 years old.
Okay, 23.
And how much have you got?
I've got $23,000 and I've also got a six-year-old child and a mortgage.
Oh, my God.
Yep, now that's a clap.
That's a clap. That's a clap.
Nice work. Wow.
You really put your head down, yeah.
A lot of hard work.
My partner and I have been working very hard for
the last couple of years. We've got
a wedding coming up in 2020, so
we're massively saving for that and
our honeymoon, which is going to be unreal.
So you're 23 with a six year old. You had a kid when you
were 17? I did. Did everybody
tell you that you'd ruined your life and that
you've got no chances now?
They sure did. Look at you now, Hope.
They see me now and it's just, yeah.
Yeah. Good for you.
That's awesome. That's really inspiring
actually. Well done. Do you want to take a couple more?
I'm really enjoying this. Yeah, I'm interested.
Hi, Daniel. How's it going?
Good, thank you. How old are you first? I'm 21 enjoying this. Daniel. Hi, Daniel. How's it going? Good, thank you.
How old are you first?
I'm 21.
And how much have you got in the bank?
$60,000.
Pardon me?
$60,000, yeah. What do you do for a job?
So, no, wait.
Most important question.
Are you single?
Not single at the moment, no.
What do you do for a job?
Ag contracting.
Ag contracting.
Yeah, tractor operator.
Farm stuff.
Right.
Yeah.
All these rich farmers, eh?
That's amazing.
You need to go on that show, Farmer Needs a Wife.
I can only dream of having that.
He should be The Bachelor.
He's not single, I already asked.
Hi, James.
Hi, James.
Hi, guys.
Do you want to be The Bachelor?
Oh, it could go wrong. How old are Hi, James. Hi, James. Hi, guys. Do you want to be the bachelor? Oh, it could go wrong.
How old are you, James?
Okay, so I'm 28.
Perfect.
Good age.
Are you single?
I am single.
Excellent.
And how much have you got in the bank?
I have nothing.
Yeah, see.
Yeah, but see, I'm enjoying being single, but as I was saying.
Your bank account's enjoying being in single figures.
The thing is, at the end of each week,
I have quite a lot of surplus in my bank account
from my wages anyway.
Yeah.
And I have everything I'll ever need.
I'm going to pretend like I know what the word surplus means.
It means he's got some leftover.
Right.
Yeah.
Okay, all right.
What do you do with it?
Basically, everything I need, I don't need to save.
So what do you do with the money then, James?
It sort of just builds up from the week prior.
Yeah, all right.
And if there's a concert on,
then I just go buy tickets or something with it.
Interesting.
All right, hey, thanks, James.
Famous last words, though.
I'm 28 and I've got everything I'll ever need.
Sounds like the man who's about to find out
that he's got someone pregnant
Brie and Clint
on ZM
hey last night
I was watching
a bit of television
and I caught
the latest episode
of Australian Ninja Warrior
I'm really into that show
yeah people get into it
don't they
it's just such an easy watch
like it's
you get to watch people fail
but also you're cheering for them to win.
And how are the bodies?
Oh, absolute stellar rigs.
Yeah.
Really good.
There was this one guy on it last night who had the best mustache
I've ever seen other than my big, other than my dad, Big Steve.
Big Steve, yeah.
He had a really good mustache and I've put it on my Instagram story.
Yeah.
And I was just saying how good the mustache was.
And a part of the Instagram story,
you can hear one of the hosts on the show.
So it's hosted by two people, Ben Fordham, who's an Aussie,
and this other Aussie chick, Rebecca Madden.
And I had about six people message me on Instagram,
and they said,
I've always thought you sound exactly like the girl who hosts this show.
Yeah. You told me this today. Yeah. I've gone and done sound exactly like the girl who hosts this show. Yeah.
You told me this today.
Yeah.
I've gone and done a bit of research.
I think we could be onto something here.
Do you think we sound the same?
I really think...
Is this my voice twin?
I think you've got a voice twin.
Maybe.
Maybe.
We can find out live.
What I've got is I've got some clips of her.
Right.
The host of Australian Ninja Warrior. Yes, find out live. What I've got is I've got some clips of her. Right. The host of Australian Ninja Warrior.
Yes, Rebecca Madden.
And then I've got a script for you to say what she says.
First of all, let's hear her.
Okay.
Okay, this is what she sounds like.
Just off the bat, see if you guys think you sound similar.
Okay.
Completing this course is a mission she set herself after last year.
And now it is time to deliver.
Olivia, here she goes.
Do you think
you sound similar? Kind of. Here's a script
for you. That was the first one, okay?
When you're ready. Three, two, one.
Completing this course in a mission
she set herself last year.
Now it is time to deliver.
Olivia, here she goes.
Oh my god, you've got a voice
twin. Is it a voice twin?
Let's do another one.
Here's another one of her.
Oh, the gymnast is just gliding across those steps.
Doesn't matter how strong you are,
the wrong technique will drop you in the pool.
And now you.
Oh, the gymnast is just gliding across those steps.
Doesn't matter how strong you are,
the wrong technique will drop you in the pool.
You've got a voice, Twen.
Is it?
Slash, you could be the host of Australian Ninja Warrior.
Let's do one more.
Let's do one more.
This is the real host.
Oh, the gymnast is just gliding.
That's the same one.
Ben Paulson begins his assault on season two
of Australian Ninja Warrior.
I reckon he's got the goods to go all the way.
And now you.
Ben Poulsen begins his assault on season two of Australian Ninja Warrior.
I reckon he's got the goods to go all the way.
I'm so impressed.
I would love people to text him on the text machine
because I don't know if I can take your word for it.
Well, I'm in it.
You're in it?
I don't really want to check them, the text messages.
I don't want anyone to shake me out of it.
Should we just say voice twin found?
I think close the text machine.
Don't check it.
Voice twin found.
We just did your voice and we think we've discovered your voice twin.
Pretty exciting.
Did you look at the text machine to see if people were as into it as we were?
It's torn.
Bit of both.
Oh, my God, all bloody Aussies sound the same.
I guess, yeah.
Wow, she sounds exactly the same.
Yeah, not hearing it.
We've got a replay.
So when we were doing it, obviously you were in the moment
and I was watching your lips do it.
Our producer Ben has lifted off a
replay and we can play this one
down. Before we do, producer Ben, do you believe
that we've found a voice twin?
Yeah, I think we do. Just to note
the replay is back to back with
the original one. Okay. So you'll exactly
hear she sounds identical, yeah.
So it's the actual host of
Ninja Warrior. And then Bree. And then Bree. Yeah. Okay sounds identical, yeah. So it's the actual host of Ninja Warrior.
And then Brie.
And then Brie.
Yeah.
Okay.
This is it.
We're going to play it out now.
All right.
This will tell for sure, okay?
Completing this course is a mission she set herself after last year.
Now it is time to deliver.
Olivia, here she goes.
Completing this course in a mission she set herself last year. Now it is time to deliver. Olivia, here she goes. Completing this course in a mission she set herself last year,

Oh.
You sound a bit manlier.
Oh!
Sorry.
Pardon you.
A little bit deeper.
Pardon you.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
You know how Friday Jams Live is this Sunday?
Yes.
It's a ZM show.
Now, a little bit behind the scenes for you.
Radio stations don't generally talk about each other's things.
It's a very competitive industry.
Like, it's quite cutthroat.
You're not meant to mention other radio stations.
You're not.
And you're definitely not meant to mention their big gigs.
Yeah.
And for us, Friday Jams Live is huge.
It's our main thing.
The word is getting around and we've had word
that they are now talking about
Friday Jams Live on More FM.
Yeah, they're trying to give away tickets.
Which is huge.
On More FM.
We've got a recording of it.
And again, we don't usually play recordings
of other radio stations,
but it's okay. They're talking about our gig. And they got a recording of it. And again, we don't usually play recordings of other radio stations, but it's okay.
They're talking about our gig.
And they're good people over there.
Yeah.
So if it's free promotion, we'll lap it up.
You have a listen to it.
This is what we got sent.
Apparently it went to air on MoreFM today.

It's my birthday. It's my birthday.
Brie and Clint's Birthday
Banger. It's where we take your birthdays
and we figure out what was top in the charts
on your 16th birthday.
Hi, Julie. Hi, Julie.
Hi. What's your birthday?
3rd of June, 1993.
Okay, Jules, you were 16 in 2009
on the 3rd of June and this is your Birthday Jules, you were 16 in 2009 on the 3rd of June,
and this is your birthday banger.
Some people think I'm bonkers.
No, I just say I'm free.
Chin.
Living my life and not being crazy about me.
Dizzy Rascal Bonkers, you know he tried to fight me once?
Oh, really?
Yeah.
It was one of the worst interviews I've ever done,
and it ended with him really trying to fight me.
That's a legit story.
Great guy, though.
Oh, great guy.
Real lovely.
He forgot about it after his set and I saw him again
and he goes, hey, interview guy.
What about when I asked CharlieXCX the other day
if she'd do a collaboration with him?
Oh, that was awkward.
And she was like, swerve.
She was like, yeah, maybe if you go,
if he had a time machine and went back to when I liked him.
Weird.
Anyway, it's all about you, Julie.
Do you want to hear Bonkers as your birthday banger?
Oh, hard out.
Okay.
Yeah, good tune.
Wait there.
We'll see what else is on the cards today.
Hey, Tracy.
Hi, Trace.
Hello.
I love how you abbreviate everyone's name.
Yeah, because we're all mates.
I've been called worse, for sure.
What's worse than Tracy?
Tay-Tay.
Yeah.
I'm going to call you T-Diz.
T-Diz, what's your birthday?
29th of November, 84.
Okay, Trace, you were 16 in the year 2000 on the 29th of November,
and this was Top of the Chart.
Who let the dogs out?
Is this a year 2000 song?
Yes, it is.
God, it feels older than that.
That's so disappointing.
Do you reckon?
I don't mind it.
I don't mind it either.
The Baja Men.
It's a novelty song.
It's unique.
Tracy's like...
It's unique.
It's different.
It's nice.
Let's go with Dizzy.
Yeah, let's go with Dizzy.
Oh, Tracy's liking Dizzy.
Okay.
No, fair enough.
Let's see what we get to round out the birthday bangers this afternoon.
Let's go to Mahia.
Hi.
Hi.
How's it going, guys?
Good.
Good, how are you?
Good, good, good.
What's your birthday?
26 of April, 1983.
Okay, Mama, you were 16 in 1999.
Mama!
I'm abbreviating everyone.
Mama.
That's my thing.
Sorry, what was the year again?
1999, this was number one.
All together.
Alright, Mama, how do you feel about that?
Oh, a little bit gutted to be quite honest.
Oh, you don't like it. What would you pick out of those
three? I can't even think what was playing back in 1999.
Well, that was.
Yeah.
We're going to give it to you.
Can we give it to my guess?
Yes, let's do that.
These are your choices for what we play today.
Okay.
Do we play Dizzy Rascal Bonkers?
Do we play the Baja Men, Who Let the Dogs Out?
Or do we play Britney, Baby One More Time?
The choice is yours. I reckon we go for Who Let The Dogs Out? Or do we play Britney, Baby One More Time? The choice is yours.
I reckon we go for
Who Let The Dogs Out. I reckon you're
100% right.
Oh, feels good.
Get it, girl.
This is
a great
Tracy's Birthday Banger.
Enjoy, Brie and Clint.

I don't know if they had another hit, but they had another single.
Hey, yeah.
This is for our man.
And we can kick it like this.
We're going to keep you moving from the dance floor.
Move it, man.
I can shake it like this.
I can shake it like that.
Yeah, actually, they had another great song.
I can shake it like that.
Can you move it like this? No, just me. Yeah, actually, they had another great song.
No, just me.
My favourite text in the text machine about today's birthday banger.
There's lots of support for it, but this one,
I remember this song being way better than what it is.
2000 was a different time.
Oh, yeah.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
Brie and Clint, The Negotiator.
All right, Clint.
Yesterday, if you heard it, this is where two people tell us why they want these tickets to Friday Jams Live.
Yeah.
You can say whatever you want.
You can give us a sob story if you want to.
You can tell us.
You can plead.
And then we put those two people head-to-head on the phone with each other,
30 seconds on the clock, and you have to negotiate to get the tickets.
Thank you to Burger King too, who hooked us up with these extra tickets.
Very hard to get at the moment.
You can preload with a Whopper before Friday Jams Live,
and they'll make sure you get a free Whopper after the event as well.
Good deal.
Line the stomach.
Here we go.
Nicole.
Yes, hi.
Hi, Nicole.
Welcome to the negotiator.
Thank you.
Like Bree said, you're now going to get 15 seconds
to tell us why the ticket should be yours.
Your negotiation partner is listening.
Okay.
And so are we.
Perfect.
Here you go.
I'll start your 15-second timer right now.
Okay, me and my husband are very much overdue for a date night.
We have a 17 month old.
We work 9 to 8
most days. We never get weekends together.
He's always working and we would love
to go to Friday jams and
just have a great night out just for one night
without the baby.
Time's up. Oh, Nicole.
You heard that. They're sick of their baby. You sold me.
And they want to go to Usher.
I'm going to pop you on hold, Nicole,
and I need you to listen carefully to your counterpart, okay?
Okay.
All right.
All right, here comes Anton.
Oh, yeah.
Hey.
Hello, mate.
So Nicole's gone with the sob story?
Yeah, yeah.
Or sympathy?
Not really.
Sympathy.
Yeah.
And it's legit the things that she said.
You now get 15 seconds to plead your case.
Yep.
Are you ready?
Yep.
Here you go.
Time starts now.
I just had my girlfriend and I had our one year,
but my pay didn't come through,
so we just went out for dinner in a seaplane
and was hopefully going to get some tickets, but didn't.
So hopefully this is my chance to take along to the show.
Wait, you bought her a seaplane?
No, we went on the ride.
Sounds like a pretty good day.
Bougie.
Okay, Anton.
No, that's cool.
That's cool.
Good work.
All right, there they are,
both people.
Nicole, you're back on
and you're with Anton now.
Okay.
We're about to give you guys
30 seconds to negotiate.
We won't be a part of it.
Okay.
You will get...
Will you tell us
when we've got like 10 seconds?
Yeah, you'll hear Anton if you listen. There'll be a part of it. Okay. Will you tell us when we've got like 10 seconds? Yeah, you'll hear, Anton, if you listen.
There'll be a 15-second indicator,
and there'll also be a five-second indicator.
And then at the end,
we'll ask you if you've come to a decision, okay?
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
You need to understand,
if you don't reach a decision after 30 seconds,
neither of you get the tickets,
and you can't split them, okay?
You can't have a ticket each.
Okay. Right, here you go, guys. you can't split them. Okay? You can't have a ticket each. Okay.
Right.
Here you go, guys.
30 seconds on the clock.
The negotiator, someone could get Friday Jams live tickets.
Here we go.
If you're a good person in this world and you love your kids,
give them to me.
I am a great person.
Hence why I need the break because I need some time away from my kid.
It sounds like you and your girlfriend had a great date.
Let us have a date now.
Just pop it off with the final thing you know yes i i totally understand i do please give us this break
that young love and you're keen to just like help help help a brother out five seconds Time's up Okay
No more negotiating
Do either of you
Want to do a selfless thing this afternoon
And give up the tickets
Nicole you go first
I don't want to give up the tickets
But if no one's going to get them
Then I will give them up.
Ooh.
Anton.
Wait, can you just confirm that, Nicole?
No, Anton.
No, Nicole said her piece.
She said her piece, Anton.
And you made her go first.
Like, what a gentleman.
Nah.
I wasn't going to give them up
because I truly thought I would get them,
but that's all right.
So what are you saying, Anton?
No, I'm not going to give them up.
Nicole?
Yeah?
Are you seriously going to give him the tickets?
If you do, and you're welcome to, he'll get them.
If you say no, we'll give them to the next person who calls.
You know what?
I'm going to say no, because the next person will probably deserve them more than Anton does.
Anton, it pays to be nice.
That's right.
That's right.
Because Nicole would have given them to you.
She was going to do it.
And that's a life lesson.
Okay, that's fine.
Let's open the lines.
The next first person through who can get through is Briar.
Briar, you're going to Friday Jams Live.
Thank you so much.
And that's all thanks to Nicole.
That's how the negotiator works.
Congrats.
We'll see you at Friday Jams Live.
Special guests in the studio.
First time as well.
Please welcome Sian and Matt from Drax Project.

I feel like you've gone green velvet for some reason.
No, I haven't.
No?
That would look good, though.
Red velvet.

We've gone pretty classic. We're all in black suits yeah oh cool so matching i gave it away was it meant

You guys are also going
on tour this summer.
You're going to all the hot spots.
I thought rather than
I tell you where you're going
or you tell us where you're going,
we'll get Bree,
who's new to the country.
Why do you do this to me
every...
She doesn't know
any of these places.
She's never done a Kiwi summer.
You should definitely come
to all the shows then.
I'll come on tour.
I'd be a good groupie.
Okay.
Pipe girl.
There are three main shows and I'd like you to tell New Zealand
where Drax Project are going this summer and when.
Well, there's a big show happening at the Tavern on December 27th.
Which tavern?
The Coro Glen.
Coro Glen.
Was that close?
I think that's Coromandel Shorten, so I'm pretty sure that's just Coro Glen.
Coro Glen.
I'm pretty sure.
Cool.
That's going to be a ripping show.
January 3rd, that's going to be huge at Butler's Reef, New Plymouth.
Oh, that's a mouldy one.
No, it's not.
It's Butler's Reef.
No, it's not.
Whatever.
That is not even close.
No, it's not.
That's Butler's Reef.
January 5th is going to be probably the biggest show of all of them.
This is what I'm looking forward to you saying.
It will be at Waihi Beach Hotel.
Yes!
Waihi Beach.
I'm going to be Kiwi yet, everyone.
Well done.
We've converted them.
Nailed it.
Before you go, there's also something else that we do on a Wednesday.
On a Wednesday, we like to get some of the guys from around the office
to voice some girl problems that we like to have a whinge about every now and then.
We thought because you're touring and you're going to be massive at the
festivals, we've written some
hashtag festival girl problems
and we'd like for you guys to
read them out like it's your having the problem.
No. Do you understand?
I understand. So in front of you
you're going to do two each. Oh, this is true.
The first one's true. Oh my goodness.
I bet you guys can relate to this.
Festival toilet lines. Are we going?
Hang on, we've got to kick this music in. We've got to kick the
music in. And go for it.
Festival toilet lines.
The only time
I've ever wished I had a
male reproductive organ.
Hashtag festival girl problems.
Nailed it. Just met a hot guy in the mosh pit.
But dancing for six hours
Don't say that. Equals a hot guy in the mosh pit, but dancing for six hours... Don't say that.
...equals a disco female reproductive organ.
Hashtag festival girl problems.
Who knew Drex Project was so PG?
I know.
Okay, you've got one more each. I just want to dance my ass off,
but wearing nipple covers as a top doesn't provide great support.
Hashtag festival girl problems
that's true
that's how I nearly
put my back out
once
and you got those
black eyes
yeah
true
just had to take
my super cute
play suit off
in a portal lift
now it's covered
in urine
hashtag
festival girl problems
I just
yeah I mean
that sucks
you nailed it guys
that would really suck
you guys really nailed that.
That has actually happened to me before.
Yeah.
Congratulations on everything.
Really good luck for tomorrow for the V and ZMAs.
Thank you.
We want to see you up there four times,
really steamed and really embarrassing yourself.
I'm going to see Sian in the mosh pit.
Drax Projean, everybody.
Hey, I almost died yesterday.
Yeah, I know.
This is scary.
I literally nearly...
Like I had that feeling.
You know when you just feel like your heart drop
and you're like, this is it.
Adrenaline.
This is it.
I'd love to say my eyes flashed before my eyes,
but they didn't.
Like...
Your eyes?
My life, sorry, flashed before my eyes.
But it didn't.
So you were in a lift
I was in an elevator
in the building
where we park our cars
and we used that lift
every day
this is so weird
because
when you told me this story
when I
got to work
about 10 minutes before you
when I walked in
there's four elevators
yeah
the one that you hopped in
yeah
when I arrived
yeah
was out of order
and there was a guy in there. I actually couldn't see
him and he was trying to fix this lift.
We've worked out that that's the lift that I was in.
So we drive down to the basement.
We park in basement level five.
We then catch the elevator up
five floors to the ground floor.
Every day we do this.
I got to the lift. I was by myself.
Went from the ground floor, sorry, the basement, five,
and I hit ground.
Up, up, up, up, up, up, up.
It signaled ground as it normally does.
And then bang, like huge bang, like crash, bang type noise.
Elevator grinds to a halt and starts shuddering.
Because that's not even the top floor in this building.
No, and I shuddering. Because that's not even the top floor in this building. No, and I was
cacking myself.
So I was five levels up
and the elevator just
froze and it was the noise that got me
like something crashed really hard.
Because that's not a normal noise in an elevator.
You don't want to be hearing
bangs and crashes when you're in an elevator.
You don't want an elevator to
stop suddenly either.
No.
It's a really unnerving feeling.
And I'd love to know if there's footage from inside the elevator
because I just like...
You said you grabbed onto the handrails.
I just grabbed two handrails.
But then I was like, what else do you do?
If this lift starts falling, what do I do?
What are you supposed to do?
Do I jump in the air?
People say you should jump in the air, which I don't think that's going to happen. You'd have to jump right at the moment
of impact. And even then it wouldn't do anything. No, because then you're just going to be thrown
into the floor. You get crushed by the top of it. Yeah. So, and I looked at the panel and I was like,
there's got to be an alarm in here because the lift just stopped. And the doors didn't open.
The doors didn't open. And I knew that I was suspended sort of five floors up. I don't know
a lot about elevators. Maybe it could have still been perfectly safe. But in that moment, I was
absolutely terrified. On the other side of the lift was a panel that had an alarm button on it.
And I sort of moved my way over to that one. And I pushed this alarm button. Nothing happened.
Push the alarm again. Nothing happened. Push it. Nothing happened. Nobody was answering this alarm. Nothing. And then the elevator started to go down, but not fast.
Yeah.
It just started descending and it went down to basement one.
Was it saying on the thing, like it was going down levels?
Yeah, on the digital screen you could see it was at ground,
but the doors wouldn't open.
And then it went down to one and it stopped
and it said basement level one, doors didn't open and then it went to
basement level two and the doors opened and there was a guy all the way and i knew i had to get
i don't know how serious this was but this is how serious it felt and i was like i've got to get off
this lift urgently yeah so i was like as soon as the doors open i'm jumping out onto safe ground
and a guy was coming into the lift and I had to
grab this guy and put my arms around
him and go, do not go in there, do not go in there,
do not go in there. I just farted. That's what I
figured it would have seemed like. He would
have thought I'd just bombed the elevator.
You're like, don't go in there, mate. Trust me, get the
next one. It is destroyed.
No, and anyway, he was a guy from the
building. God, how much relief did you feel?
When I got out?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But also anger.
Yeah.
Because when I told you, when you got here and you told me the story and I was like, they were fixing that elevator.
Yeah.
And you were not impressed.
The guy who was going into it, it was an employee of the building.
He worked in security.
He goes, oh, leave it with me.
I'll get it dealt with.
And I was like, cool, where's the stairs?
I'm not going back in the elevator.
Ever again.
It was honestly.
Mate, terrifying.
Terrifying.
I feel so bad for you.
That's horrible.
We got to ask this afternoon, have you been stuck in a lift?
You know how, I don't mean like.
You hear horror stories.
Yeah.
Were you stuck in there for a couple of hours or something?
You know where people pick a corner and they're
like, that's the corner everyone.
If you want to do, that's the number ones,
that's the number twos corner.
Were you in there long enough that you started looking around
going, well, if we have to eat someone,
we've all
made an alliance and it's
going to be you, big boy.
0800 dial ZM
if you've been stuck in a lift.
Terrifying situation for you yesterday, mate.
You got into a lift.
It's gone up to the ground level.
Crash, boom, bang.
And then it hasn't opened.
And you've grabbed the rails,
pressing the emergency button in the lift.
I went to flip my camera in to record.
My phone.
Because I was like, if this is the way I go out, people need to... I've got to put a message. I went to flip my camera into record. My phone. Because I was like,
if this is the way I go out,
people need to...
I've got to put a message.
I've got to put a message.
I've got to put a message out there.
I've got to put up a Snapchat.
Yeah.
I've got to get that filter on.
What filter do I want to die with?
Quickly, quickly, quickly.
Always crema.
Is it?
Yeah.
I was thinking like the dog ears.
Oh, the dog ears is good.
Or big slippery tongue like...
To my wife Lucy,
if you're listening,
I love you
You're an idiot
We want lift stories
When did you get stuck in an elevator?
Hi Dan
Where did you get stuck mate?
I got stuck at the hospital lift
My wife had just given birth to our son
And then
After being up for about 18 hours,
I went to go home and got stuck in the lift for three hours.
And were you scared?
No, not really.
I shouted out to the security guard, what if I needed the toilet?
He said, oh, you're just going to have to hold it, bro.
Really?
What if you couldn't hold it then?
Well, I suppose there's a corner.
Yeah.
You pick a corner, and that's the corner.
And you just have to really hope
that the ground was level.
Yeah, pretty much, pretty much.
If it was on a lean
and you peed in the wrong corner,
that waterfall's coming straight back towards you.
Hi, Paris.
Hi.
When did you get stuck in an elevator?
In like a little tiny shitty one in France,
like in Paris.
Oh, no.
One of those old school ones with the cage?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, no.
And were you with anyone?
Yeah, me and my sister.
And she just freaked out.
And so then we pressed the open doors thing and it opened.
But we were like suspended, like mid-floor.
So we could see the bottom of our feet was like halfway seeing the floor.
Yeah.
And so the little French lady hotel owner was like,
oh, you're going to have to jump out.
And we were like, you're kidding.
Like, no way.
So we had to, but underneath us was like a five-story,
like a shaft, like an empty shaft.
So we had to try, like, jump, like, really horizontal.
So we landed on the floor and not went back under.
And were you really terrified as you were jumping
that the lift was going to move again
and it was going to cut you in half between floors?
Oh, my God, yes.
What the hell?
That is my worst.
You're kidding.
You've got to have a ladder or something.
She's like, no, no, no, it's fine.
Just jump out.
Wait, Paris, where were you?
In Paris.
I know it's ironic my name's Paris as well.
I just realised that.
Where did Paris die?
In Paris.
I mean, if you had to go.
I mean, yeah. It's a good did Paris die? In Paris. I mean, if you had to go. I mean, yeah.
It's a good story.
Thank you, Paris.
Hi, Hayley.
Hi.
My mum was in labor at the hospital.
Oh, no.
And she had a bit of a problem there.
What do you mean?
How long was she stuck in the lift while she was in labor?
She was stuck in the lift only for about 10 minutes.
But I think it was the fright of her life.
We always hear about it.
Was she in there by herself?
No.
So what had happened was her water had broken
and she went into the hospital.
Yeah.
And she was with her brother.
And her brother thought it would be funny to jump in the elevator.
Oh, you don't mess with a pregnant woman.
There is nothing funnier than a practical joke
on a lady who's about to give birth.
Yeah.
If I know anything about women, that's what they love.
I would have strangled him with the umbilical cord.
Yeah, I'm 22 now, and we still hear about it.
Were you born in the lift?
No, it was actually my older brother.
Yeah.
Shafted.
Would have been a good story.
Would have been a great story.
Okay, hey, thank you, Hayley.
Cool, thanks.
We've got a big couple of nights coming up, haven't we?
We do.
We're about to embark on the biggest bender in our show's history.
Some big events.
We're very lucky to be able to go to some of the biggest events in New Zealand.
Events?
Did I say event?
You're drunk on all the events you've got to go to.
I know, right?
So the music awards are tomorrow night, which is awesome.
Very excited about it.
But the big one that we're going to have been talking about it for quite a few weeks is
the Christchurch Cup and Show.
That's it.
We're going to rick it in on Saturday.
It's going to be awesome.
Can't wait.
How did you go?
How did you go yesterday, Crusher?
Did you have a good time?
How did you hear today?
Feeling good?
Good.
Good to hear it.
See you on Saturday.
Something that has become very apparent to me is that the prep that goes in to going
to the races is very vast for the female.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, for you guys, of course, there's obviously prep that goes into it.
You need to find a suit and shoes and all that jazz.
And have a shave.
And have a shave.
Yeah.
And maybe a haircut.
Maybe.
Oh, I forgot to have a haircut.
Yeah, cool.
Yeah.
But for us girls, we need to think about jewellery, shoes, bag, makeup, hair.
And then the very important one that's very popular these days
is a tan. Especially coming
out of the depths of winter.
Unless you've been dipping over to Bali.
I look like a ghost, honestly.
Not good. But when you put a
tan on. You look like a marshmallow.
I just feel
better about myself when I've got a tan on.
How much fitter do you look when you've got a tan?
You literally lose 5 kilos. It's crazy. It's amazing. You go, I don't need to go to the gym. Actually when I've got a tan on. How much fitter do you look when you've got a tan? You literally lose five kilos.
It's crazy.
It's amazing.
You go, I don't need to go to the gym.
Actually, I've got heaps of, I've got definition.
This is nice.
Wait, how do you know that?
Oh, I've had a tan.
Have you?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, we'll just leave it at that.
I've had a tan.
You've had a tan?
Yeah, I had a tan.
So you would know.
That's awkward.
We'll breeze past that.
No, it's not actually. I think it's great. You can have a a tan. So you would know. That's awkward. We'll breeze past that. No, it's not actually.
I think it's great.
You can have a man tan.
I think you can have a man tan and I say go for it.
It'll make you feel really good.
The weird thing is I have had a tan and someone else on this show has not had a tan.
Producer Ellie, never had a tan.
Never had a tan.
How old are you?
26.
You're 26?
Yeah.
And I just, I don't understand.
I've just never.
Because, I mean, let's be real.
You're not a super naturally tanned person.
No.
You and I are very similar.
We're very milky.
The three of us have got the complexion of a redhead.
Yeah, we do.
Yeah.
We're a very white show.
Pasty.
Pasty.
Yeah. Why have you never. We're a very white show. Pasty. I think it's what we do.
Pasty, yeah.
Why have you never thought about getting a tan before?
I've actually just never thought about it.
I don't know.
I just don't really care. We're going to the races this weekend and you want one.
Why do you want one now?
Well, I don't want one.
I feel now I should because Bree's doing one.
I'm going to be sitting next to her and I'm like, oh, I should do that.
I've influenced you, haven't I?
You have.
You're a tan influencer.
I was like, you need to get a tan. Also, if we have to have a photo with her and I'm like, oh, I should do that. I've influenced you, haven't I? You have. You're a tan influencer. I was like, you need to get a tan.
Also, if we have to have a photo with her and she's glowing like Donald Trump in Malibu,
we're going to want something, right?
Yeah.
Maybe you should get a tan.
I'm starting to think maybe I should get a tan.
You'll look good.
Or at least a bit of thin Lizzie on the nose.
So I've convinced you and now we're in the spot where you're going to have your first
tan coming up to a big event and you don't know how it's going to go.
And I said, you should do it yourself.
When you say it out loud, it's like, oh, this is going to be a disaster.
And I'm now committed to doing that.
Nah, mate, I think you're fine.
We've got the Bondi Sands.
Hashtag not sponsored.
No, I think you're going to be fine.
Are you nervous?
A little bit.
I do not want to look like an Oompa Loompa.
Have you exfoliated?
I have actually for the last couple of days.
Have you moisturised?
Yes.
I do that every day anyway.
Yeah.
Super important.
They're the two big ones.
But I need to guide you through.
Are you going to come over to my place?
Well, that was the original plan,
but now I'm thinking I might just do it at home by myself.
It is awkward because we'll have to be naked.
Yeah.
Go around to Bree. She's already organised the paper g-strings and
everything. I actually did. Did you? Did you? Did I? Mate, I just think there's, I want people to text
their tanning tips. If you've tanned yourself before you can text us on 9696. What are your
tips for Ellie going through her first tanning
experience? I just hope
it doesn't turn out bad and then you blame me
for it. Are you tanning the face?
Well, that's the thing. Do I tan the face? That is the question.
So here's the tip. Once you
put it on the glove and you tan the rest of your body
and this is the part I always find gross.
You're meant to, with the residue,
use that on your face.
But once I've done my bum, I don't want to do...
Have you rubbed all your bits?
Yeah.
I was like, I don't really want to do my face.
All right, good luck, you guys.
And also...
If you want to see these photos,
they'll be up on the Bree and Clint Instagram page after Cup and Show.
Plus, I think there's only one glove, so go first, Ellie.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
Yesterday, the very sad passing of Stan Lee,
creator of most of the superheroes that you know.
He did all the Avengers.
He's from Marvel Comic Books.
Passed away at 95.
See that Gisben Herald did a tribute to him on the front page,
put his picture on there, and they said Spike Lee passes away.
The famous director.
Shout out to Gisben.
It's a tough one.
That's the problem with newspapers too is you can't correct a typo.
Can you imagine?
It's printed.
All Spike Lee's family are calling him.
Well, luckily there was a picture of a guy that wasn't him on there.
Yeah, but then you're like, who is it?
Is it that guy or is it Spike Lee?
Armie Hammer.
You'll know him from the social network.
He played both of the twins on the social network.
He was also the Lone Ranger.
What a big role. Yeah. He was also the Lone Ranger.
What a big role.
Yeah. Did he get paid twice?
Maybe.
Did the Olsen twins get half a fee split between them? Sorry. He was also in Call Me By Your Name. Armie Hammer. Big deal. Hollywood A-lister. He's come out and had a go at all the celebrities
who posted tributes on their Instagram
to Stan Lee.
So you've got to think yesterday who these big
names were. You've got people like Ryan Reynolds,
Channing Tatum,
Chris Pratt, Jason Momoa,
Robert Downey Jr., Iron Man,
all posting a picture of them
with Stan Lee and their message.
Most of them were like, can't believe you're gone, miss you,
very, very sad.
Army goes on Twitter and he said,
so touched by all the celebrities posting pictures of themselves with Stan Lee.
No better way to commemorate an absolute legend
than putting up a picture of yourself.
Interesting.
Shady.
He's saying that by doing that
and including yourself in the photo,
you're making his death about you.
Someone tweeted him back and they said,
maybe they're just remembering
how it felt to meet him with those photos.
That's how I would feel.
I never got the chance.
He wrote back,
if Stan impacted your life,
i.e. all of our lives with his work,
post his work that touched you the most.
Posting a selfie makes his death about you
and how cool you felt taking a picture with him.
Oh, God.
Honestly, I'm just so sick of people having a whinge.
Like, who cares, really?
He's getting absolutely roasted for it.
To be honest, he's now made it about something else.
He's made it about himself.
And it should be about Stan, not what he's talking about.
Does it really matter that much?
Can you agree with him at all?
So say, let's bring it down to a personal level.
Say someone you know passes away.
Yep.
Is it inappropriate to post a photo that you're in?
No, I don't think so because that's a memory that you've shared with that person.
I don't think so either.
I think it's okay.
I almost think whatever tribute you want to post to someone is fine.
If it's your memory.
Exactly right.
It's your tribute.
It's the way you want to remember them.
It's what you want to say.
To be honest, I think he's really clutching at straws.
I think he's majorly missed the mark.
He just sounds like cranky old bugger, doesn't he?
He sounds, you know those people who are just shady about everything?
Yeah.
You know you've got those friends and you'll see them on Facebook and all they do is complain
about things?
And they're still your friend and you can't unfriend them, but they're definitely getting
hit in.
It's the politically correct thing these days.
Sometimes it goes a little bit too far.
Interestingly, he's been roasted worldwide for this.
Has he?
Deleted the tweet.
Okay.
Yeah, well, you know what?
I mean, he probably reflected on it.
Maybe.
No, no.
Or he's just copping so much heat from it,
he just took it down.
He instead put up a link to that System of a Down song,
Toxicity.
Did he really?
Yeah.
Can I also say,
no good comes from deleting a tweet.
Once it's out there, it's out there.
You may as well just leave it there
because deleting it is just going back to the thing again.
Unless you're Donald Trump.
Oh, yeah.
If you're Donald Trump, delete your Twitter.
Just delete it, yeah.
Delete your account.
Massive story coming out of Melbourne, Australia yesterday.
Is that how you say it?
It sounded quite American.
No, that's how you say it.
Melbourne, Australia. Melbourne, that's how you say it.
Melbourne, Australia.
Melbourne, Australia.
You darn tootin'. Anyway, there's a massive thing happening over in Aussie at the moment
where cops are taking it to the next level to catch people
on their phones whilst driving.
Neck level.
Neck level.
So they're going undercover and I gave you guys the hook in here. I said, you won't
believe what they've done because I mean, we've seen the undercover cars and we've seen,
you know, cops doing all that kind of stuff. Roadside cameras. I've seen roadside cameras
to catch people on their phones. Yes. They're now in Melbourne dressing up as window washers,
walking over to people's cars. Yeah.
When they wind down the window, they say, I'm an undercover cop and you're booked.
Oh, that is perfectly fair, but very annoying.
Yeah.
So this took place on a road called Springvale Road in Melbourne and it ran, I'm not sure
exactly how long it ran for, but apparently they issued 38
infringements for people using their phones. And I'm not too sure in New Zealand, what's the fine
for using your phone whilst driving? 150, I think. I think 150.
So in Aussie, they're taking it to the next level. And I remember when I was home a couple of weeks
ago, my brother said,
have you heard about what they've done with the fines
if you're on your phone?
So they're now $484.
Holy.
And four demerit points are deducted from your licence.
Your fines are ruthless over there.
They're crazy, hey.
How many demerit points do you get?
You get 12 on an open licence.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Hold on, wait.
Producer Ben, I I think's got the
The New Zealand ones is
$80 fine and then a 20 demerit points here
in New Zealand. So how many did you get here? 100?
200 demerit points. Oh, 200, right.
So similar system, but
just works a little bit differently. How much is that fine again?
80. Penalties are $80
and then a 20 demerit points. 80's not enough.
I mean, I don't want to get
a fine. Wait, wait, only 20 demerit points. Yeah, drivers that not enough. I mean, I don't want to get fined. Wait, wait. Only 20 demerit points.
Yeah, drivers that are using their mobile phones to make a call while driving.
Yeah.
Okay, so I wonder what texting is.
It'll be the same.
It'll be the same?
It'll be the same thing.
They need to...
It'll be the same for changing a song.
Yeah.
They need to like up the ante on that.
I got done.
Yeah?
Yeah.
I was coming around a corner and I was plugging in my GPS.
It was very slow moving traffic. It was like rush hour traffic. I was plugging in my GPS. It was very slow moving traffic.
It was like rush hour traffic.
I was plugging in my GPS where I wanted to go
and then putting it up on the dashboard.
And then just got down the road and a cop waved me into the gas station
and said, why were you on your phone?
And I was like, I was putting in the directions they go.
He goes, don't care.
Don't care, you get the phone.
Yeah.
Really?
It is fair and it would be annoying because you don't want to pay that money.
But at the same time, it must be frustrating for the cops
because everyone's doing it.
I always think about the truck drivers,
how they can see down into your car.
And also they'd see the worst drivers from up there too.
They would see such bad stuff.
They'd see you on your phone.
To be honest, I'm someone and I'm not going to sugarcoat it.
I think I'm addicted to my phone. I am. And it's one thing when I'm in and I'm not going to, you know, sugarcoat it. I think I'm addicted to my phone.
I am.
And it's one thing when I'm in my car, you know, I'm not perfect,
but that's one thing I made a promise to myself a couple of years ago actually.
And I said, is it worth it to be on your phone for whatever reason it is?
If you're texting someone saying I'm on my way, is it worth it if you run
into someone or if you kill someone, is it worth it if you run into someone
or if you kill someone is it worth it to send that text it's really not it's not i got it wrong
it's 100 demerit points in new zealand and you lose your license not 200 oh right so so i got
it right yeah well okay all right um so just to do the math, apparently this sting operation in Aussie
where they dress up as window washers to book people on their phones,
they collected $18,392.
Wow.
How many windows did they wash as well?
I just want to know how many tips they got.
