Z-Dance!
Z-Dance!
Let's go, go, go!
Now let me see you dance!
Z-Dance!
Brie and Clint!
Good afternoon everybody!
Welcome to the show, Brie and Clint!
Mate, shh.
Yeah, I know, sorry.
There's stuff going on.
Yeah, we're soundproofing here.
We're in a soundproof box.
Okay, cool.
They can't hear us.
Cool, cool.
So, to paint the picture,
we're in the studio.
There's lots of glass all around the studio. Outside
the studio is this like hidden corner.
It's like a public courtyard. It's like a public
courtyard but it's very hidden, the corner
just behind the studio.
There's been these two people
that have met a woman
and a man. They embraced.
Kind of awkwardly though.
It was a long hug. But it was a long hug.
We're talking like 15 seconds with a bit of back rubbing.
Yeah.
What was the feeling you got?
I thought it was like first meeting after Tinder.
It was awkwardly long though.
It was about 15 seconds and then he dropped the nose into the neck pit,
into the crevice.
Have a smell.
And had a sniff.
And then they released and they both took a step back and folded arms.
So I don't think they'd ever met before.
Yeah, but did you see him tash on?
Oh, no, no.
Yeah, and then three minutes later he was eating her face.
No, so then he went in for a kiss.
They kissed once and then she pulled away.
Oh.
And then she went and sat down and he's went over to her.
And next minute, it's a stand up, sit down pash.
Oh, yeah.
There's always that.
She stayed on the park bench.
She didn't come up to meet him.
No, she just sat there.
Have you ever seen that before?
Do you reckon that's a first date?
Or is that a Tinder hook up?
I don't know.
What is it?
I don't know what kind of meeting that was,
but I feel like it was secret.
It was really good to watch though.
If they'd turned around at any point
and saw about nine of us watching them through the glass,
it would have been very awkward.
It was so ridiculous because when they started pashing, there was nine of us just cheering.
Great show, though.
Great show.
We've got to get these windows tinted.
Huge show coming up.
Yeah, we've got Mumford & Sons tickets up for grabs at 5.30 again today.
If you play Mumford or not, another three double passes.
But next, you want to talk parking fines, right?
Yeah, I've got a parking fine and I want to run it
by you to see if I should complain.
If you should complain? On that person.
Okay, alright. I'm going to try and get out of this parking fine.
Alright, we'll do it next.
Oh, that's Metallica.
Let's kick off the show with some Metallica.
You're listening to The Rock.
No, we're starting with George Ezra.
My hidden jersey dress. My husband moved up as far. My hidden treasured dress.
My golden grand piano.
Just kidding.
I thought you were going to rip into Jessie J then.
That would have been a good one too.
That would have been good.
Bree and Clint, here's Portugal the Man, ZM.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
Have you heard about these ridiculous laws
that they're about to bring into New South Wales over in Aussie?
No.
I'm so glad I don't live there anymore
because New South Wales apparently are bringing in a new law
where New South Wales parking inspectors
will be able to hand out demerit points
as well as fines for drivers who park illegally.
What?
Yep.
Demerit points?
Yes. They'll take points off your licence for a parking fine?
Yes, like a policeman would.
So are the police giving out parking fines now?
No.
No?
It's parking inspectors and they're giving them the power
to be able to give out demerit points.
MetaMates can give you a parking fine.
So the new rules see inspectors able to tack on a maximum of two demerit points
depending on what the fine is for.
Now, here in New Zealand that doesn't sound like much,
but over there how many demerit points do you get?
You only get 12.
You get 12 a year?
Well, on your open licence.
On your licence you get 12.
And I think it takes...
Because you get 100 here, right?
We went the other day, you get 100.
So it'd be like taking 20 points.
For a parking fine.
For a parking fine. What are we talking about parking
fine? Are we talking about parking over a driveway or
are we talking about staying in a 20 minute
park for 30 minutes? So for example,
if you leave a stationary
vehicle on or near a children's
crossing, pedestrian crossing,
marked footpath crossing or
bicycle crossing, that'll cost
you $337 and two demerit points, which is ridiculous.
Since coming to New Zealand, I've never received more parking fines in my life.
Yeah, but you're very bad with your car.
No.
Yes.
Can I tell you about the recent one that I got?
You will leave your car parked in the same place for a week.
Yeah.
I'll let you know. We park here at Z? You will leave your car parked in the same place for a week. Yeah, but... I'll let you know.
We park here at ZM.
We don't ever park in the building.
It's across the road inside the casino where we park.
And no crap,
Bree has left her car there for 10 days in a row once.
To the point that on the last day she goes,
I wonder if my car's still there.
It's my car park.
If I wanted to,
I could set up shop there and live in that car park if I wanted to.
Technically, yes, but still.
What I'm saying is you don't really care where your car gets left.
No, I do care.
Well, when I get a parking fine, I care.
What's the new one?
So let me tell you what's happened and you tell me if I deserve the fine.
Sure.
Because I'm going to fight it if you tell me to fight it.
Okay.
So outside my house.
Okay.
You've got to hear about it.
Fight it.
Okay.
So my street is a fairly new street right so there's signs up there's um side parking there's street parking yeah and it says on the
street signs that it's metered so it does say you need to pay but for the whole time i've lived there
for the last 10 months there's been been no like actual machine on the street.
Yeah.
There's no machine.
Yeah.
The closest machine is two streets away.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
So it's like our street and then like another street over.
Yeah.
I got fined for parking in a park that says you have to pay,
which I've parked there for 10 months,
but it says that I should have paid for the park.
And you couldn't find a meter to pay in.
The meter is so far away.
Okay, it's fine.
Fight it, but you're going to lose.
Why?
Because I had the same thing.
They changed where I used to park.
They changed the rules.
They changed it to a metered area.
It didn't used to be one.
There were no signs on the street, though,
to say that they'd changed it to a metered area.
They just changed the rules. Wait, so it wasn't signed? No, there were no
signs. And did you fight it? I fought it and they said
no. They said no, you should have done your research.
What am I supposed to do? Check the council website every
day for every, you're gonna, you
can fight it, but there's no point. All you
can do is send enough
emails back and forth. If you tie them up
in admin long enough
and ask for the job
to be escalated.
This is a trick, by the way.
I've got out of fines
like this before.
Keep asking it
for it to be escalated
so you don't accept
their resolution
and eventually it'll go
so far up the chain
that they'll go,
you've cost us more man hours
dealing with this ticket
than the parking fine is worth.
We'll just write it off.
Oh, maybe I should just
date someone from the council.
Well, there's that too.
I did meet this guy the other night
who worked at the council
and he was cute.
If former mayor of Auckland,
Len Brown, is listening
and you'd like to call the show.
My number is 027-299.
He is...
Is he single?
I don't know.
I think he probably is after...
Shotgun.
Look, we won't go there.
Shotgun. We won't take this show back to the Ngati Whātua room. We just won't do it. Doesn't sound like someone I don't know. I think he probably is after. Shotgun. Look, we won't go there. Shotgun.
We won't take this show back to the naughty far to a room.
We just won't do it.
Doesn't sound like someone I want to date.
Okay.
But at this stage, I'll take what I can get.
Good luck.
Give us an update on where you get to.
I'll let you know what the council says.
Thanks.
Can't wait.
I'm thinking it's a no.
Where do you take a counsellor for a date to?
A park?
Bree and Clint on ZM.
Mate, one for anyone that works in an office job
or even if you're just sending emails.
Yeah.
An email message decoder has been released
as to what statements in emails actually mean.
I like this.
The hidden message behind the message.
Yes, which I think it's spot on.
Emailing in general is a very PASAG form of communication. Yes. Which I think it's spot on. Emailing in general
is a very pass-ag form
of communication.
A lot is said without being said
and also
It's so formal.
Why in an email does it have to be so
formal but on text I can send an
eggplant emoji? No one ever ends
a conversation with best.
You know? I don't catch up with someone and I'm like, oh good to see you today. Best Clint. ends a conversation with best. You know, like I don't catch up
with someone and I'm like, oh good to see you today. Best.
Clint. I always go with cheers.
Kind regards. Clint.
Do you ever say that in your life?
No. Do you ever put it in a text message?
No. No, you don't. Do you ever put it with
your ink and your feather? With your quill?
With your quill? No.
So these are some of the things. I hope this email finds
you well. These are some of the phrases that have been decoded as to what they actually mean.
Okay, sure. Yeah, hit me with some. So this one, I mean work people would probably
get a lot. As stated below. As stated below
is some passive aggressive. Oh, it is. It actually means you need
to read the entire email chain, not just the top two lines because your dumb question
has already been answered.
Yes.
I've said it.
I said it before.
Read closer, you big dummy.
Read it again.
Yeah.
Okay.
What about the phrase, hope this helps?
That phrase means, can you just stop bothering me?
Hope this helps.
So eventually it means, go away.
Leave me alone Got it
You big dummy
Yeah cool
Oh this one I get a lot actually
Let me clarify
You've completely misunderstood
My last message
You idiot
If someone said to you
Let me clarify
In person
Like imagine you and I
Having a conversation
And you disagree with something
And I look you in the eye
And I say
Let me clarify.
Oh, it's so...
That's not even passive aggressive.
That's aggressive.
It's just aggressive.
That's straight up aggressive.
Isn't it?
Yeah.
What about this one?
Per my last email, it means you better reread the whole thing again.
You won't ask me stupid questions then.
Per my last email is the same as stated below.
Exactly.
Read it again.
What about just checking in?
Just checking in means, I'll tell you what this means,
it means you haven't replied to my email,
I'm getting impatient, can you hurry up and get back
to me? That's exactly what it means. Which I think is fine.
But what's the turnaround time?
If someone sends you just checking in
on the same day, that person can
No. No.
No, I think that's fine. On the same day?
If you send it to them in the morning and then just before you leave work at like 4.30.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I want an answer.
No, the accepted turnaround for an email is 24 hours.
You reckon?
Yeah.
What if you work in the same building?
Go and see them.
Go and see them.
Get off your butt and go and see them.
What do you mean, go and see them?
Go and have a face-to-face. I know, it's a weird concept, eh? Wait, you can actually talk to someone in the office? You can go and talk see them. Get off your butt and go and see them. What do you mean, go and see them? Go and have a face-to-face.
I know, it's a weird concept, eh?
Wait, you can actually talk to someone in the office?
You can go and talk to them.
You could pick up the phone and talk to them.
You could do any of that, but people don't
because one, they don't want to do that.
They don't want to have human interaction.
Two, they want to use passive-aggressive things in their emails.
And three, they want to have a paper trail
so that later on they can go,
um, no, as stated below, you said such and such
and that's why I'm taking this further.
Oh, my God.
You just did the best impression of Gary from sales.
Public service announcement.
All right, what have you got for me?
Local community message.
Really like to hone in on the smaller.
Who's selling a bike?
No, not selling a bike.
No one's selling a bike.
No one's reporting a dodgy-looking person
looking into car windows either.
No babysitter needed?
No, no babysitter needed.
This is a message to the Beach Haven
and Birkdale community Facebook page.
Right.
And I'm using the radio to publicise it
just in case members of Beach Haven or Birkdale,
which is a North Shore suburb of Auckland...
You wouldn't believe it, but I'm a member.
Are you a member?
I'm a member.
Well, you will have seen this.
Let me get the message out for those who haven't had the chance to see it.
It comes from Rick Didham, and he says,
Hi.
Oh, Rick.
I'm so embarrassed and ashamed to say this,
but Jack, our dog, has somehow gotten out of the property more than once.
We're trying to figure out how he's doing this
and we will seal up the hole as soon as we find it.
Apparently, he's been caught by more than one of our neighbours
sneaking in through their cat door.
Cute, right?
So cute.
And doing number twos on their bedroom pillows.
Why the pillows?
We don't know why he's
doing this, but if you see
him, please be
nice to him. Because if you're mean,
he comes back and does
it again.
So if there has
been an incident in your bedroom, please
PM me.
That's Rick Didim. And we'll look
into getting your new, we'll look into getting your pillow case replaced if we can.
Like that he says, if we can, in just the case.
If a dog does a poo on my pillow, I want a whole new pillow.
Yeah, I think you need a new pillow or else you get pink eye.
Thank you for your patience.
Would you like, so people of Birkdale and Beach Haven,
be aware if your pillow smells bad, it's Jack the dog's fault.
Don't look to your partner.
Don't look to your partner.
The natural reaction is to be angry.
Let me show you, and this is not going to work well for radio,
but let me show you Jack, okay?
Okay.
This is the culprit.
Oh, it's a little Maltese.
It's such, I was picturing like a Staffy for some reason.
Oh, he does look sinister though.
No, look at him.
He doesn't know what he's doing.
Nah, his eyes say, I'm going to go take a dump on your pillow.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
If you've got a good sense of humour, we need you to call right now.
0800 dial ZM.
Yeah, we need a couple of people for this, right?
We need a few people for this.
It's pretty simple.
There's researchers over in the UK who have taken 5,000 English words
and had participants rate them and how funny they are.
Right.
So using science to gauge the funniness of what words?
Words.
So pretty much computer scientists have then looked at the results
and figured out what makes words funny.
Okay.
First of all, Teresa, you got a good funny bone on you?
Teresa?
Hello?
Uh-oh, your line got cut off.
Brooke.
Brooke.
Brooke.
Brooke.
Oh, this is why we don't take live phone calls.
Jack.
Yes.
All right, you've got a good funny bone on you.
You know what's funny and what's not?
I'd hope so.
Cool, you're going to act as one of our judges.
Wait there.
And we'll get one more.
I think we're going to go with Sally.
Sally, are you there?
Hi, yes, I am.
Okay, between you, me, and Jack,
we're going to listen to Bree's list of funny words. They're not mine. No, yes I am. Okay, between you, me and Jack, we're going to listen to Bree's list of funny words.
They're not mine.
No, you said them.
No, this is from science.
You said these are the 10 funniest words in the world.
This is what scientists have said
are the funniest words in the world right now.
You say the word and see if you get a laugh from any of us.
Don't force a laugh, okay?
I want a natural laugh if it comes Sally and Jack.
Great.
All right, are you guys ready?
I'm ready. All right, here we, are you guys ready? I'm ready.
All right, here we go.
You guys ready?
Word number one.
Upchuck.
No.
No?
No.
No?
Oh, I think that was an awkward laugh.
That was a laugh of the size.
I think that was a pity laugh.
Yeah, cool.
All right, let's go.
Sorry, upchuck.
Which means to vomit.
Yeah, upchuck.
No good.
What about bubby?
Bubby. Yeah, upchuck. No good. What about bubby?
You got two laughs out of bubby.
What about this means to have sexual intercourse?
Yeah.
To boff.
I'm going to boff tonight.
Who's laughing?
Me.
You're going to laugh out of that from Jack. What about wriggle?
Come on.
Yeah, I'll give you wriggle.
No one else though.
When I hear wriggly, I think wriggly.
And when I think wriggly, I think wriggly baby.
You know what else is on here?
Jiggly.
No.
No?
Nah, no jiggly.
This is my favourite one, guys.
I think it's because it came off the back of wriggly.
Can I do my favourite one?
Yeah.
Are you guys ready? This is what I think is the because it came off the back of Wrigley. Can I do my favourite one? Yeah. Are you guys ready?
This is what I think is the top one that scientists have picked for the funniest word.
Yeah.
Are you ready?
Yeah.
Cooch.
You know what isn't on the list but is also funny is cooch.
Go.
Oh, we have real tiny brains.
Okay, that's nice.
Hey, thank you, panel.
Thank you very much.
Oh, no problem.
They should stay on for Birthday Banger.
Do you guys want to play Birthday Banger?
I'm not 16, so...
Bring Clint on ZM.
Aura and Let Me Love You.
No, Let You Love Me.
Yeah, I wish that guy next door would let me love him.
Yeah, so let's be real honest about what's going on right now.
Our studio is next to Cam and George's studio who do Snapchat.
At the moment, they're doing a live interview with a New Zealand artist.
Mm-hmm.
Both...
Oh, wow.
Mate, I can't concentrate.
He just looked at me.
Fletch, you're here.
How would you say Bree's behaving around New Zealand artist Kieran McMeekin?
She's giddy.
Honestly, do yourself a favour.
Go Google Kieran McMeekin.
He's very attractive.
Where did he, has he got a sunbed or something?
Who created that?
Has he been in Australia tanning?
It looks like it's been photoshopped.
He looks a little bit like...
He's too good looking.
That's not fair.
He looks like a young Chris Hemsworth.
Yeah.
Oh my God, he does.
He does, doesn't he?
Anyway, Fletch is here.
You want to play birthday banger with her?
Yes.
All right, let's...
Because I listen and I want to be involved
because I never am.
Excellent.
No, you're the most involved in our show
other than cleaning for myself.
It's because Bourne doesn't come to social functions
and there's one happening now.
100%.
You're here for the social function.
We've dragged you in for this.
Free booze.
It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Free and clean. A hundred percent. You're here for the social function. We've dragged you in for this. Free booze.
So we're going to find out what was number one
on your 16th birthday,
but first we're going to find out
what was number one
on Vincent's 16th birthday.
Hi Vinny.
Yeah, g'day.
How's it going?
Good, thanks.
What's your birthday?
29th of November, 1994.
Okay, Vinny,
you were 16 in 2010
on the 29th of November
and on that day this was top of the charts.
Oh.
Far East Movement.
They were awful.
This was a tune.
Other than the song, they were just the weirdest group.
I mean, they had a few other bangers.
Is that a bit negative?
How do you feel about your birthday banger, Vinny?
Yeah, I reckon that's a few other bangers. Is that a bit negative? How do you feel about your birthday banger, Vinny? Yeah, I reckon that's a change.
All right.
Has any other band done any more for aircraft education than this band?
No.
No, we all know what a G6 is.
I was just about to say, that's the reason I know what that is.
Not since that song in the 70s, I'm Leaving on a Jet Plane.
But it wasn't a specific Boeing.
Did you hear their follow-up song, Boeing 737?
No, not as good.
Not as good.
Not as good.
Second up to birthday bangers, Anthony.
Hey, Anthony.
Hello, mate.
How you going, Shane?
Good.
What's your birthday, Tony?
12th of May, 1987.
All right.
You were 16 in 2003 on the 12th of May,
and back in the early 2000s, this was number one.
Yes, Anthony.
You've got a ripper.
How do you feel about Sean Paul?
Yeah, no, that's pretty good, mate.
I'll live with that.
Pretty good, mate.
Get the business.
It's pretty good, mate.
Okay, cool.
That leaves one person, and it's you, Fletch.
Okay.
All right, what's your birthday?
23rd of June, 79.
All right, Fletch, you were 16 in 1995 on the 23rd of June.
And back in the 90s, this was number one.
Yes!
Amazing.
Yeah.
Yep, I win.
1995 could have been real touch and go.
Yeah, it could have been horrible.
Did you just say you win?
I win, yeah.
I win. Without a doubt, this is the best song of all three. Did you just say you win? I win, yeah. I win.
Without a doubt, this is the best song of all three.
Have you just called it?
Yeah, I've called it.
Hey, Fletch calls it.
Yeah, he calls it.
Banger.
Absolute banger.
All right, congratulations.
Fletch's birthday banger this afternoon.
This is Fletch's birthday banger.

That's the problem.
But his birthday was today and he was on and we didn't say happy birthday.
It's his fault for not making a noise about it.
When it's your birthday, you're like, it's my birthday.
Yeah.
Bang on your chest and stuff.
What about people who take their birthday off Facebook and then they get grumpy when
no one wishes them happy birthday?
Oh, that's not fair.
That's not fair.
Attention seekers.
Yeah.
I take it off Facebook because then I can be the same age every year.
Oh, just take the year off.
Yeah, that's what I do.
That's all you got to do.
People take the date off though and they're like,
what do you say to have your birthday to me?
Well, guess what?
I don't know your birthday off by heart.
I don't know half my family's birthday off by heart, to be honest.
Do you know your mum's?
Quick.
What is it?
Oh, she listens at this time.
It's the 7th of May.
What is it?
It's the 7th of May.
It's the what?
Yeah, yeah, Brie and Clint.
What?
Pardon me?
How good is live television?
A nerve-wracking.
Have you ever done it?
Yes, and I hated it.
What did you do live television for?
I was on a morning show.
Oh, yeah.
Doing like an entertainment segment.
Did they get you in to review an album?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Something like that.
That's what you get the radio people in to do.
Yeah, I ended up saying something really bad so they didn't invite me back.
Have you done it?
Yeah, I used to do the show after X Factor.
I think I said boobs or boobies.
You know they say boobies.
Oh, I don't.
Well, this was on like the real.
Man, Australia's strict, eh?
Yeah, it's so politically correct.
For a country founded by criminals, you're very sensitive.
I think I then pretended to milk myself as I said it.
Oh, right.
Okay.
Well, again, you could do that here because that's a woman's right.
You could.
I mean, if I went on TV and pretended to milk.
Me.
Or Hilary Barry or whoever, then there'd be an issue.
Like that's an issue.
Yeah.
But again, as a broadcasting professional, I wouldn't do that.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, there's something that's happened over in Aussie.
And God, I love this story.
There's a guy by the name of Mr. Martin.
He was a truck driver.
And this story is actually horrible.
He was the truck driver.
You probably heard about it.
It's making headlines over in Aussie.
When he cheated death when a 12 kilo rock was thrown from an overpass by some kids.
And yeah, he happened to survive it.
There was a big thing happening here for a while too.
They've had to put up like cages around all the overpasses in Auckland.
Terrible.
So he managed to, I think he swerved and missed it.
Hard to do in a truck.
Oh, no, wait.
It smashed into the windscreen.
And then he swerved and pulled into the emergency lane.
He's okay.
Yeah.
And he did this interview on live TV on a show called Sunrise,
which is kind of like, what's that, the breakfast show here?
Brickfest.
Brickfest.
Yeah.
That's the one.
Big fan.
Brick gets up at 9.30. Bree gets up at 9.30.
I get up at 9.30.
I don't catch it.
Anyway, he gets on this show and the host is named Koshi
and Koshi talks to the guy about what happened,
but then he uses his TV debut for something else.
Take a listen.
Too easy.
Thanks, Koshi.
Before I go, can I just do a quick shout out?
Sure.
My boss's daughter's watching.
She's probably going red-faced right now.
I wonder what you're doing on Friday night
if you want to go out to the movies.
So good.
He's used live TV to ask out his boss's daughter.
Brilliant.
I mean, it takes guts.
It does, because you know at least your boss is going to be watching.
Because this is the big moment.
The company's going to get exposure.
Exactly right.
Say a company's called like Tony's Transport or something.
This is our opportunity.
He'll be wearing the Tony's Transport polo shirt.
He was.
He'll be like, get us some exposure.
He was.
And then he's gone.
I've just marketed the company.
How about a night out with your daughter?
Whoa.
There's no word yet.
I was going to say, does it have a happy ending?
There's no word yet if she said yes or not,
but hopefully we'll have an update in the next couple of days.
He deserves a date after that.
He does.
That's ballsy.
It's pretty big.
Yeah.
I thought this afternoon, we don't have a live TV show,
but we do do a live radio show.
I'm with you, yeah.
I was thinking, can we get someone
to call right now
if they want to ask
someone out on the radio?
Yep.
Declare your undying love to someone
who doesn't know. Ask them on a date.
Do you want to ask your boss's daughter out?
I mean that, you know,
needle in a haystack. We'll take that.
We'll see what we get. It doesn't matter who it is, right?
Doesn't matter who it is.
Maybe you just want to give a message to someone that you, you know,
you want to, you think they're pretty all right.
Maybe you're already with them.
Maybe it's your girlfriend and you just haven't been on a date in a while.
Or maybe you've been seeing someone and you want to make it official.
Okay.
Radio romance.
Come on. Let's see what we Okay. Radio romance. Come on.
Let's see what we get.
0800 dial ZM.
Let's do this live radio thing.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
So there's this truck driver over in Aussie who got on live television
for this horrible story, but he's used his live TV moment
to ask out the boss's daughter.
Not that one.
This one. This one.
Thanks, Koshi. Before I go,
can I just do a quick shout out?
My boss's daughter's watching. She's probably
going red-faced right now. Wonder what you're
doing on Friday night if you want to go out to the movies?
Yes. Well done, sir.
Absolutely rate that.
Well done. He's used his moment.
He's picked it very well well He's got a great stage
And he's gone
Why not?
Why not?
Almost died today
Why not?
Why not just go for it?
What's there to lose?
Life's too short
We thought
We've got the platform
Of live radio
And if anyone wants to do
The same thing this afternoon
You know
Have some courage
Maybe ask someone
Out on the radio
You've got that courage
Don't you Michael?
Yeah I do, actually.
Tell us about who it is.
Well, I've actually been keeping an eye on this special person for a while now.
Okay.
And she's a lovely lady from what I've heard and what I've seen.
And that's you, Bree.
Oh, hang on.
Let me set the tone for you.
Hang on.
Oh, God.
Bree, if you're after tone for you. Hang on. Oh, God. Bree.
If you're after a man.
This is good.
He has his own job.
A wee bit rural.
And so you look forward to a few acres in a few years.
She does come from a farming background too.
Oh, yes.
I'm not a farmer, but I've got acres on the go.
No, no, Bree comes from a farming background.
Oh, Bree does. I'm a country girl but I've got acres on the go. No, no, Bree comes from a farming background. Oh, Bree does.
I'm a country girl.
I like a country man.
Brilliant.
Well, I'll wear my R.M. Williams and my plaid shirt and I'll be all yours.
How about that?
Oh.
Producers, this is a stitch-up.
You've hit it right in a Queensland soft spot.
He sounds lovely.
Whereabouts are you, Michael?
The Manawatu.
Oh, deal breaker.
I mean...
Deal breaker.
I'm kidding, I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
How far is that from here?
Palmerston North.
I like Palmerston North.
Yeah?
You can get one of those pies from the...
Oh, no, he died, didn't he?
Oh, Jesus.
Michael, hold there.
Guys, can you get Michael's number?
Oh, is this a soft note?
No, it's not a soft note.
Well, say yes then.
He's just asking you on one date.
Michael, when I'm in Palmerston North next,
I would love to go on a date with you.
You have your people contact my people, eh?
Sounds good, Michael.
Michael is a stone cold champion.
I really like that.
He's got some good banter.
I don't mind it.
Let's see if Jackie wants to date you.
Hi, Jackie.
Hello.
How are you guys?
You're going good.
This is not what it was about, but it's what it's becoming.
Are you here to ask someone else out, or are you here to ask're going good. This is not what it was about, but it's what it's becoming. Are you here to ask someone else out or are you here to ask Bree out?
Someone else, actually.
Okay, sure.
Again, tell us a bit about the person.
So I've been trying to contact them for a little while here via text.
Producer Ben from Christchurch.
Oh, yes.
Okay, hang on.
Let me set the tone.
Wait.
Producer Ben from Christchurch. Get on the mic. I'm on. Let me set the tone. Wait. Producer Ben from Christchurch, get on the mic.
I'm on.
Yeah, here he is.
Go for it, Jackie.
We've seen your messages.
Is this you that always texts in, Jackie?
It's me.
You're a nurse.
Are you a nurse?
Not, no.
Not by trade, no.
Because you offered to nurse Producer Ben's broken hand back to him.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
You know, anything he needs, I can provide that for him.
And Jackie, obviously, you've seen photos of Producer Ben.
Yeah.
And you're keen.
Whoa.
Pretty mean, whoa.
He's impressed.
Ben, you be quiet.
Be quiet, please.
Jackie, I need to ask.
No, no, she needs to say what she wants to say.
Yep, go on.
If you want to ask him out, Jackie, you need to use your words and do it, okay?
This is your live radio moment.
Okay, producer Ben, I'm just wondering if you'd like to go on a date with me
to Holy Moly on Friday night.
She's in Auckland.
I don't think Ben's girlfriend is going to be too keen on the idea.
Now, Jackie, you already know that Ben has a girlfriend
because we've messaged you that before.
It hasn't stopped her.
I just keep on hoping that, you know,
maybe he might need a shoulder to cry on.
He just moved in with her.
Yeah.
That really is wrecking my chances, isn't it?
It is.
Are you going to give up hope, Jackie,
or are you going to keep fighting that good fight?
I'll keep fighting.
Yeah, that's good.
As long as I'm in the country.
Yeah, good.
She needs that visa, Ben.
Yeah.
Yeah, Ben.
I sure do.
Yeah, Ben.
Share it around, okay?
Stop being so greedy.
Yeah.
Stop being selfish.
One more.
Hi, Brooke.
Hi.
Are you asking out producer Ben as well, Brooke?
Oh, I wish.
Who are you asking out, Brooke?
So there's this guy I go to school with, his name's Sam.
Oh, we're doing a schoolyard one.
Is this a high school crush?
I guess you could say that.
Does he know that you're keen on him, Brooke?
I don't know.
Well, does he listen to ZM at least?
Like, is he going to hear this?
I hope so.
What's his name?
I've just got my fingers crossed.
This is your platform, your time to ask.
You need to say his name so he knows it's him.
Oh, he knows who he is if he's listening.
Surely.
And what do you like about him?
Oh, he's just really, he's gorgeous.
And he's a nice guy.
Are you going to say his name?
Sam.
There you go.
You wouldn't believe it, Brooke.
But we've got Sam on the other line.
You did not.
No, we don't.
Hey, good luck at school tomorrow.
I hope it's not too awkward.
Can you call back and let us know if love blossoms?
Yeah, I sure can.
All right, call us back.
There you go.
Next on the show, we talk to producer Ben's girlfriend, Steph.
To see if they're still together.
Thank God she's in Australia.
Thank God she's in Australia. Thank God she's in Australia.
What, so you can hook up with that other girl?
No.
Holy moly, tomorrow night.
Bree and Clint on ZM.
Bree and Clint's Mumford or Not.
The boys are coming to play Western Spring Stadium.
They're on the outer field on the 12th of January.
They're bringing Leon Bridges with them and a whole bunch of other support acts too.
Tickets are selling fast from secretsounds.com.
All you have to do is tell us which song is a Mumford & Sons song
and which one isn't.
Anton, have you been listening this week to the game?
A little bit.
Yeah.
How do you rate your chances?
Big Mumford & Sons fan?
Do you think the game is hard, easy?
Where are you sitting with it?
I'd say like a 4 out of 10.
A 4 out of 10.
Is this the Anton from a couple of weeks
ago? Anton, are you the Anton that played
the Friday Jams Live negotiator?
Maybe.
It is. This is your shot
at redemption. Hey, this is your redemption, Anton.
That's okay. Welcome back to the show. It's good
to have you. Bree's going to give you
two Mumford & Sons songs
and you need to tell us
which one is not a Mumford & Sons song, okay?
All right.
All right, here we go, Anton.
Which one isn't?
Is it Whispers in the Dark
or Whispery Fart?
What was the second one?
Whispery Fart.
Don't answer just yet.
Here comes your timer.
This is your timer Anton we're going to need an answer
Say the first one
Is it?
Which one isn't?
Is it whispers in the dark
Or whispery fart?
Oh the second one it is
Not it
Congratulations Anton
Thank god we clarified Oh, the second one, it's not it. Congratulations, Anton. Mumford & Sons.
Thank God we clarified.
Yeah, that's good.
Good work, Anton.
Let's see if we can give away another one, shall we?
Welcome to the show, Sam.
Hi, Sam.
Hi, how's it going?
You've heard how it works now, okay?
Your time is up.
We're going to give you two titles and you tell us which one is not a Mumford & Sons song.
Is it 42?
42?
Or is it 69?
Alright, here comes your timer.
Sam, we need an answer.
I'm going to say the one that is not the song is 69.
There she is.
She's going to Mumford & Sons.
It's a tough game, Sam, and you crack the code.
Well done.
You're going to be at Mumford & Sons.
Thank you so much.
You're very welcome.
Nice work, Sam.
All right, let's go one more this afternoon.
Hello, Jess.
How are you guys?
Good.
How are you?
Good, thank you.
All right.
You know how it works.
I'm going to give you two songs.
You have to tell us which one isn't a Mumford & Sons song.
Here we go.
Is it Hot Gates or Hot Hot Mates?
Jessica, we're going to need an answer.
So is it which one isn't?
Yes.
So I'm going to go with the second one.
Hot Hot Mates?
Yeah.
Oh, God.
Jess.
Oh, is it the first one?
No, it's not.
It's the second one.
Oh.
That was lucky.
She was about to change her answer.
Yeah, you got me.
Good work.
We'll see you at Mumford & Sons, okay?
No, thank you.
No problems.
I don't think we've had any losers this week.
No, we've got very smart listeners.
That's why.
All the anticipation in the room right now is palpable.
You could cut the tension with a knife.
Look at what you've done.
People are now calling, trusting you,
thinking that there's an actual new headliner.
100%.
What I like to do is because I'm privy to special information
on things like concerts, especially ZM's Float,
brought to you by Tip Top Trumpet,
I like to bring other people into the fold
so we're all in the know.
This is so ridiculous.
Because a secret shared is a secret something good.
Spread.
So I've got the headliner, the new headliner.
This is a bolt-on to the bill for ZM's float, okay?
They go with Mitch James, with Saatchi, with Stan Walker,
with Drax Project.
Marley Brigada.
Arguably, this person I'm about to announce is bigger
than all of those acts put together.
Where did you get this information?
I got it from Facebook.
You got it from me. You got it from me.
I got it from, well, yeah, you're involved.
Yeah, you're involved and you're welcome to be involved.
Like I said, let's get everybody involved.
I've told a very select couple of people about this headliner off air.
Lachlan, you know.
You know who the new headliner is.
What are your thoughts?
I don't believe.
Without revealing who it is.
Lachlan, don't encourage this.
Without revealing who it is, without revealing who it is,
how do you feel about it?
I feel like he's a pretty good looking guy.
Seems like a nice guy.
Are you excited?
I'm very excited.
What do you think this is going to do to ticket sales,
Lachlan? I think it
might put them through the roof.
Yeah, I do too.
This act is about to tip this thing
into the next level.
Jess, you've heard the new headliner as well.
Don't reveal who it is.
Don't do it, don't say it.
Yeah.
But just give us your feelings.
That's great.
What was your first reaction?
She sounds disappointed.
Oh, it's great.
He's amazing.
I love him.
So do we.
Stop it, Jess.
And the most important bit is, so did the listeners of ZM and the staff of ZM, actually.
This person.
Okay, well, that is actually true.
Who is now coming to ZM's float is a big deal.
You know what, Jess?
I'm going to give you the honours.
I'm going to play a drum roll,
and then you're going to announce who the new headline attendee.
She forgot his name.
Of ZM's float.
Did you forget the name, Jess?
She doesn't need the name.
She knows what she's doing.
She knows what she's doing.
She can handle this.
Okay.
She can do this.
Here we go.
The new headliner is...
You.
No, Jess.
Yeah, okay.
I called it.
Jess.
The new headline act.
Do you want to try one more time?
Do you want to tell me who it is first?
Then I can try
Yeah, I'll turn the mics off for a second, okay?
Wait, producer Ellie
Hang on, I'll turn the mics off
I'll turn the mics off, hang on
Okay
Here we go, here we go
Did you just
Here we go, here we go
Let's try again
The new headline act attending ZM's Float 2019 is
I still don't know who it is Oh my god The new headline act attending ZM's Float 2019 is...
I still don't know who it is.
Oh, my God.
Sad they know.
Okay, I've got to let you go, Jess.
Bye, Jess.
The new headline act for ZM's Float,
and this person is coming all the way from Australia,
is Bree's hot brother, Aidan.
All the impact I hoped for.
Forget about Jess.
She mucked it up, but that's not her fault because we can get excited together now.
We can get ready.
We can get sunscreen on,
but not enough that makes us look weird
because Bree's brother's going to be there
and he's real hot.
Mate, you're going to scare him off.
He won't come.
It doesn't matter.
He's coming.
I saw it on Facebook.
He clicked attending to the event.
Oh, my God.
Now, on the bill,
brought to you by Tip Top Trumpet,
alongside Drax Project and Saatchi,
is Aidan Thomasel,
Bree's hot brother.
And it's a water event,
so he's not going to be wearing a shirt.
Oh God.
I should get into concert promotion.
I know what the people want.
Oh, can we get your dad too?
The people have never been more disappointed.
Let's play a little round of What's the Plot?
Once upon a time, there was a girl.
She was smart, debatable, talented, athletic.
Not really.
Picking a movie based on just the plot line?
That she can do.
Brie and Clint's What's the Plot?
This is it, folks.
The third to last What's the Plot of the year.
I mean, we're never going to win the overall championship,
we the people. The current status we're never going to win the overall championship, we the people.
The current status is 16 games
to two, but we can claw a little bit
of respect back for ourselves.
Or I could just win
the rest of the games for the year.
Yeah, you could do that too. You could take the year out,
19 games to two. It was a rough
game last week for me.
Spencer, you're up first. You represent the people
for one of these questions. Are you a movie buff? A little bit. A little bit. I'm here for me. Spencer, you're up first. You represent the people for one of these questions.
Are you a movie buff?
A little bit.
A little bit.
I'm here for redemption.
Oh, you've...
I've taken her on once before,
but I've got a good feeling
about today.
Did I take you down, Spence?
You did.
You took me down
in a blaze of glory.
All right.
Here we go, Spencer.
I'm going to start
with movie plot number one.
Your buzzer is your name.
Best of luck to both players.
We're playing a best of three
competition.
This film
follows the adventures of a
of an heir
to the throne whose
wicked uncle plots to
usurp the throne. Spencer.
Spencer.
Oh no. Damn it. Richie Rich
but that's wrong.
It is not Richie Rich.
Bree, you are now entitled to a free guess.
Snow White?
Snow White is not correct.
Let me start again from the beginning.
This film follows the adventures of a young heir to the throne whose wicked uncle plots to usurp the throne
by luring his father
into a trap.
But our hero
escaped.
Bree.
The Lion King.
Lion King is correct.
Get him!
Sorry, Spencer.
Redemption is not
for you today.
Come back for round three,
Spence.
You're not
adult Simba
just yet.
Third time lucky.
Let's go, Kate.
Hi, Kate.
Hey.
Are you the person to do this?
Because this is match point at the moment because it's best of three.
Are you the person for this?
Yeah, I believe in you.
I think you are too.
Have you played before, Kate?
No.
Have you played in the car?
Yeah.
Good, good, good, good.
She doesn't sound confident.
I'm scared.
Just listen to my words.
My advice for you is don't wait too long.
Because as soon as you yell your name,
you've got one or two seconds to continue to process it, okay?
And if you get it wrong, you can keep going.
Here we go.
Your buzzer is your name.
Movie number two.
Teenage.
I'm not going to use the name.
Our teenage hero was educated in Africa by her scientist Bree.
Mean girls.
Jesus.
Can you see my screen?
No, I swear to God I cannot. You can't see my screen?
I swear on my mum's life.
Wow.
I just love that movie.
Kate, you didn't stand a chance, did you?
No, that was ridiculous.
Sorry, Kate.
I just said Africa and she goes No, girls
I've got nothing better to do, Kate
I was like
Gandhi?
Oh, feels good
Feels good
Alright, well done
I'm happy with that win
That is 17 games to two
The Christmas run towards home
Is well underway
Well done
Hey, if you were wondering
what to get your boyfriend for Christmas,
look no further
because old Uncle Clint's got you sorted.
Okay?
Why are we doing it this late?
I feel like this is going to be risque.
Oh, no.
No?
Yep.
Your moustache tells me otherwise.
Do you like,
what do you think about moustache, by the way?
Yeah, I mean,
it's growing on me.
It's growing on me too, literally.
Yeah, all right, mate.
This is a fantastic idea for your boyfriend,
especially if he likes the UFC.
Now, I know you don't mind the UFC, Brie.
I don't mind the UFC.
I know you've been to some pretty big UFC fights.
I was at the Ronda Rousey fight
when she got taken down by Holly Holm.
Yeah, that's one of the most historic fights of all time.
Super iconic.
So, also iconic within the UFC is one ring card girl in particular.
Now, I'm talking about the girls who walk around with the signs to say what round it is.
Yep.
The bikini ring girls.
The bikini ring girls.
And this is a perfect example of equality because they can work the men or the women's fights.
We don't mind.
You know?
Great.
Come on board the most
famous of them all her name is ariani celeste she's the first ring card girl not just in the
mma but in any sport boxing boxing i don't know where else they have ring card girls at the maybe
at the indie oh yeah yeah grid girls grid girls grid girls yeah same kind of thing She's the first one To earn a million dollars
In a year
She's a seven figure
Ring card girl
And can I just say
Ariane Celeste
You deserve it
She's 33 years old
She hustles
And she's a fan favourite
So
She has 3.1 million
Instagram followers
Right
So she's famous
In her own right
And for some people
She'd be as big a part
Of the fight
As seeing the fighters were.
Some people just go to see her.
Some people just go for her.
And then while the fight's on, nip out, go to the toilet, get a drink, just come back for the ring card girl.
The main event.
Back to Christmas, she has put out a calendar.
So if you're thinking of what to get your boyfriend for Christmas, why not combine his passions for sport,
female empowerment,
and boobies?
Alright, well, alright mate, you're pushing it.
That is a stretch.
Ariane Celeste calendar.
I love all the guys when they come home,
all the girls when they come home with this calendar,
and the guys will be like, really confused,
and the girl goes, Uncle Clint
told me to get this.
No, no.
Hell thank you.
And honestly, thank me at the end of 2019 when he turns to you and says, babe, that was the best 12 months of my life.
You're welcome, New Zealand.
And hey, Merry Christmas.
Gross.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
I don't like losing to Australia on many things, Brie.
You'll know that. But there is one record you guys have taken this week,
which is just, it's not even up for debate.
Legit, my mum called me this week.
Yeah.
And she said, have you heard the news?
I said, no.
She goes, got the record.
Big knickers.
Big knickers.
The world's biggest cow.
This thing, you've seen it, right?
Yeah, it's ridiculous.
It's a monster.
So you think about how tall a cow normally is, right?
Most people, most people can see over a cow.
If you stand next to a cow, you can see over its back.
Yeah.
This cow, knickers, is 1.94 meters tall.
That's a 6 foot 4 tall cow.
So it's 6'4".
Yeah. It could be in the nba
1400 kilos 1.4 tons of cow a lot of steak uh nick is the cow uh is safe seven years old
this bit i found really sad the only reason nick is is not dead is because he was too big to see
into the slaughterhouse they physically could not him. He actually couldn't fit inside the machine.
So this week, Australia takes the record for biggest cow.
There's another animal, though, nipping at Nicker's heels.
Yeah.
And it's a pig.
I do love a big pig.
Not a big pig, but a, would you call him a party pig?
A party pig?
He's a drunk pig anyway.
There is a pig in Australia who has made the news.
Don't talk about our Prime Minister like that.
That's horrible.
No, this is the four-legged variety with the cute pink nose.
Headline reads, Australian pig steals 18 beers, gets drunk and fights cow.
That's amazing.
He stole three six-packs
from outside someone's campsite,
outside their tent,
pierced the cans with his pig teeth,
drunk them all.
Yeah, they've got sharp teeth.
Yeah, ran into a field,
started a fight with a cow,
swam out into the middle of a river,
made a whole lot of pig noise,
and then pulled up under a tree
and went to sleep.
Oh, I thought you were going to say
he died, he drowned.
No, he's sweet.
He's fine.
He's sweet.
Oh, there's an update on the story.
He didn't die from what I saw.
I've just posted an update.
The pig, whose name is Swino.
Oh, shit, he's dead.
Oh.
Mate.
What a devil.
How often do we do that on this show?
What?
We talk about something and go, oh, no way, they're dead.
I feel really, I did not know that was how the story ended.
Literally, it says at the bottom, the story's just been updated.
I don't know if he was taken out by police or what, but.
What?
What, taken out by his own kind?
I don't know.
