Starting point is 00:00:00 Hi everybody and welcome to the Friday edition of the Bree and Clint podcast and the first time that we're doing something new. We promised it and it got a massive response on our podcast group on Facebook. Yeah, what's the name of that podcast group again? We're changing it. It's too hard, too difficult and that's why we have no people following it. But we said we would do a birthday banger edition for the podcast listeners. Yeah, for the people who live overseas and can't call our show each day. Because it would be frustrating. You'd be like, what's my birthday banger edition for the podcast listeners. Yeah, for the people who live overseas and can't call our show each day. Because it would be frustrating. You'd be like, what's my birthday banger?
Starting point is 00:00:28 Oh, what's mine? So today we get to find out. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. It's three and Clint's birthday banger. The podcast. Yeah. This is great.
Starting point is 00:00:40 It's awesome. So we got you guys to comment your birthdays. And we've picked out three. Is that right, Clint? Yeah, we've got three people. And what we're going to do is we're going to give you the number one song in New Zealand on your birthday where we are. And then also the country where you are. If you've told us where you live,
Starting point is 00:00:54 we can tell you the number one in your country as well. So first person we've got is Libby Hutchins. Libby Hutchins. And she actually messaged our group because it was her birthday this week. And we tried to get her on the show, but it was too difficult. But now we're doing her birthday group because it was her birthday this week and we tried to get her on the show but it was too difficult but now we're doing her birthday banner so happy birthday for this week to Libby and she was born on the 5th of November in 1983 so that means she was 16 in 1999 on the 5th of November and And in New Zealand, this was top of the chart.
Starting point is 00:01:33 That's a great birthday banger from Mariah Carey. Oh, that was when she was at her peak, wasn't it? She's from South Australia, though. South Australia. Big shout out to the South Australians. On the 5th of November, 1999 in Australia, this was number one. A little bit of Monica in my life. Now let's rock it. A little bit of Erica by my side.
Starting point is 00:01:49 A little bit of Rita. I love Vintage Mariah, but you'd opt for that one if you had the choice, wouldn't you? I mean, it's iconic mumbo number five, Lou Bega. Okay, next person up is Christine Cullivan. Yes, and Christine is from Wentworth, New Hampshire. Have we got people listening to our show in New Hampshire? Yeah, shout out to everyone in New Hampshire. Christine was born on the 9th of September in 1987,
Starting point is 00:02:12 which means she was 16 in 2003, and this is her birthday banger. People killing, people dying, children hurt, and you hear them crying. What a tune. Black Eyed Peas. I think the last Black Eyed Peas song that didn't have Fergie on it, or does it have Fergie on it as well?
Starting point is 00:02:27 No, this has got Fergie. And Justin Timberlake. Yes. This was number one in New Zealand on the 9th of September 2003. But in New Hampshire, this was number one. Yeah. Nelly. Charlie. no.
Starting point is 00:02:47 Was it P. Diddy? P. Diddy. Yep. Shake Your Tail Feather. Shake Your Tail Feather. And I'm pretty sure. Murphy Lee is the other one. We always forget Murphy Lee.
Starting point is 00:02:56 This was the theme song to Bad Boys. Bad Boys 2. Bad Boys 2. And how exciting a new Bad Boys is coming out. Bad Boys 3. Yeah. Okay, next one's for Greg Gould. Greg Gould was his birthday's 11th of February in 1968. So he was 16 in 1984 on the 11th of Feb.
Starting point is 00:03:14 And we'll do his New Zealand one first. Billy Joel. Can't beat that. I went on a Billy Joel deep dive just recently. That show we were watching, The Politician, that we've been talking about? Yes. On the last episode, which we agree should be the first episode of the second season. Yes.
Starting point is 00:03:36 The song he's playing on the piano, Vienna, is a Billy Joel song. Right. Yeah, Billy Joel's awesome. Billy Joel is awesome. Okay, so that's your Kiwi number one, Greg Gould. Yes, but Greg is in Charleston. Is that what? South Carolina.
Starting point is 00:03:51 South Carolina? South Carolina? South Carolina in America. Yeah. So this is what was top of the charts where Greg was. Come a, come a, come a, come a, come a chameleon. You come and go. Two icons. Billy Joel and Boy George.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Boy George, yeah. Apparently there's a Boy George movie in the making, like the Elton John one and the Queen one. I would love to watch that because he, imagine, I mean, he was so different and is still so different, but imagine back in the day, back in what, 1984? Yeah. How hard that would have been.
Starting point is 00:04:26 If this was the real birthday banger, which one of those songs gets played? Which one? I think... I'm going to say Uptown Girl. You think Uptown Girl? Out of those two? No, out of all six. Oh, out of all of them.
Starting point is 00:04:39 Who wins? For me... This or Mumbo No. 5? For me, it's between this, Uptown Girl, and Shake Your Tail Feather. If you go Uptown Girl, I'll vote for you. Right, Uptown Girl. Let's play it. Well, we're not going to, but there you go.
Starting point is 00:05:04 We're not going to play The whole song are we Nah No Nah we've got to get Into the podcast man Okay Just enjoy this bit I vote
Starting point is 00:05:17 That we play the song On Fridays For the podcast Birthday banger Edition A whole song In the podcast Mate we ramble on for eight minutes sometimes.
Starting point is 00:05:29 ZM, let's go, go, go. Now let me see you dance. ZM's Brie and Clint. Start the radio engine, baby. We're ready to fly. Did you see that just then? Producer Ben just commando rolled through the studio to open the door. What is he doing?
Starting point is 00:05:47 He's always ready. Battle stations, everybody. We're about to go to radio war, okay? Everybody's coming for our crown. We've got to be ready to fight them off. I love when Producer Ben catches something and he literally yells the same thing every time. What are you, the Black Caps?
Starting point is 00:06:02 What are you, the Black Caps? The Black Caps playing today. Is that Caps. The Black Caps playing today. Is that on today? Tomorrow. I think it might be today. Who knows? It's good vibes out there at the moment, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:06:11 Yeah, but that's not the biggest competition going down today. No, the biggest competition going down today involves you and me and a little song
Starting point is 00:06:20 that you've chosen and I absolutely hate you for for Friday Oaky. But there's a good reason, you know. Is there a good reason you've chosen Carly absolutely hate you for, for Friday Oaky. But there's a good reason, you know. Is there a good reason you've chosen Carly Rae Jepsen? She will be in the country, in Auckland, in a month. In a month?
Starting point is 00:06:35 You did a Christmas song last week. Because it's Christmas. It's two months away. Because it's Christmas. No, Christmas is two months away. Carly Rae Jepsen is one month away. This is what you're in for at five o'clock today and you've got Brie to thank for it.
Starting point is 00:06:49 Hey, I just met you. No, this song is not for me. But here's my... I can't go up any higher. Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad. That's not bad. I think I'm on picture. All that and more in today's edition of Friday Okie.
Starting point is 00:07:12 We want to play some Friday jams this afternoon too because we never get to play any Friday jams. So we take the rain sometimes on a Friday. Yeah. And we ask for your guys' help pretty much if you want to text through your suggestions for the best Friday jams. We'll play the best one. The best one.
Starting point is 00:07:27 The best one. Zuh. Zuh. After brand new 660, their new record dropped today. This is on it. It's called Long Gone. Friday afternoon on ZM. Bree and Clint, the podcast.
Starting point is 00:07:45 ZM. Do you have, the podcast. ZM. Do you have a crazy amount of annual leave? Do you have a really good amount? Do you have more annual leave than you have to work in a year? Wouldn't that be good? Well, I mean, it was a big thing in Aussie for a long time, all the people that would work out in the mines. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:59 And you do two weeks on, two weeks off. That was the best roster you could get. They spend like 12 to 14 hours a day underground, a lot of them, don't they? Oh, it's not an easy job. It's brutal. But some places you do a month on and a month off. Yeah, I could do that. So you work six months a year.
Starting point is 00:08:14 Yeah, that'd be fun. But this is big news for BNZ employees who will be now getting six weeks of annual leave a year, which has bumped up from four and increased to six. That's good. That's awesome. Just out of the, what, kindness of their heart, they're going to give them 50% more annual leave.
Starting point is 00:08:36 I don't know if it's 50. 50%? Yeah. Well, what's half of four weeks? Two. Oh, so it is. Oh, but. It's a 50% increase.
Starting point is 00:08:47 What's going on? What's wrong with you? They had four weeks. Right. And they've gone up to six weeks. Yeah. So it's been increased by 50%. Right, yeah, no, I see what you're saying. Yeah. Yeah. Why did they get it? They pretty much said
Starting point is 00:09:01 they wanted to give their employees more leave, extended parental leave, and also flexible hours because they're keeping with the focus of well-being. That's great. Everybody deserves that much leave. Which I totally agree. Good on BNZ for doing that.
Starting point is 00:09:19 I reckon that's a really nice thing to do for your staff, if you can. It helps if your company is pulling in millions and millions of dollars if you can afford to. And they should be doing that because they can afford it. And I think it's super important for people's mental health and well-being. It's an awesome move by BNZ. Mad Dog's called through. G'day, Mad Dog.
Starting point is 00:09:36 Happy Friday, mate. Hello, Mad Dog. How's it going? Happy Friday. How much annual leave do you get? All right, so not the job I'm at now, but my last job, we used to get off on the 17th of December, and we wouldn't come back to the 14th of February. Whoa!
Starting point is 00:09:52 And then, like, but that's plus, like, on top of, like, so many ruthless sick days, like, just using my kids as, like, a ruthless excuse. Like, oh, my kid's sick. Mate, your kid's been sick for a month. Oh, I don't care care i can't come to work wait wait wait wait wait wait are you a school teacher i know no i send down oh i'm sorry i've seen poo down the hill i'm a drain layer i see poo down the hill what you're a what
Starting point is 00:10:18 mad dog i'm a drain layer i've seen poo down the hole. He puts pipes down. Right. You like cable, Mad Dog. Hence why our phrase should be life on the pipe. And it's like not on the silly pipe, it's on the PVC pipe. Yeah, we get it, big man. Why can't you work from December until February? Is the ground too hard? Because the boss don't want to pay you. He's like, oh, here, we'll just make you guys go over here
Starting point is 00:10:48 and we'll give you a little bit of money because, you know, if you do X amount of hours, right, say during the week you do 40 hours, right, he'll pay you for 40 hours. If you go back to work, you do 55, 60 hours. He doesn't want to pay you that. Yeah, right. He'd rather just pay you this base amount of 40 hours, six amounts. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:11:05 It pays good money. Welcome back to Talkback Radio. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We've got Mad Dog on the phone. Mad Dog, we're going into Christmas break. Thanks for calling, mate. We appreciate it.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Yeah, have fun laying that cable. And thanks for all your hard work. Oh. Just hung up. Bree and Clint. Yeah, cable delay. ZDM's Bree and Clint. The podcast.
Starting point is 00:11:24 From iHeartRadio. This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Coming to us live from the red carpet premiere of Disney's Frozen 2, Dean McCarthy, come in. Hello, Dean. Good morning. Good afternoon, everyone. Yes, I'm literally the world premiere of Frozen 2,
Starting point is 00:11:41 standing on the red carpet as we speak. They've closed down the whole street. They're using the Dobby Theatre and the El Capitan Theatre. I've never seen them do that for a movie premiere ever. It's huge. Keep an eye out for a six foot eight man
Starting point is 00:11:52 with a moustache and 5,000 Instagram followers. That's our boss, Ross Boss, who somehow has managed to get himself onto the red carpet to walk the red carpet for the Frozen premiere. Oh my God, I will be looking out for the Frozen premiere? Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:12:05 I will be looking out for him because I know what he looks like. I've met him. He's very tall. I love a good mustache. He's hard to miss. And I'm going to find him. Yeah. Tell us, let's go with Chris Brown,
Starting point is 00:12:14 who has decided to hold a bit of a yard sale to make a bit of money on the side. So most random thing in the entire world. Yesterday, Chris Brown literally just, as you said, held a garage sale at his own house in Tazana. People came in and entire world yesterday. Chris Brown literally just, as you said, held a garage sale at his own house in Tizana. People came in and bought his stuff. Gucci jackets, Balmain shoes, Balenciaga. One woman walked away with
Starting point is 00:12:34 a jacket. I think it was Armani or something. And when she got home, she put her hands in the pocket, found a bag of weed. Oh, whoa. No! Score! Gift with purchase, they call it. Gift with purchase. I thought you were going to say like a roll of cash or something like that, but no, it's some old Chris Brown weed.
Starting point is 00:12:51 Yeah, I got old weed. So, yeah, it was really weird that a celebrity would do that, especially at their own house. Must be strapped for cash. It's an unusual thing for someone that famous to do, especially at their own home. Yeah, full on. Okay, all right, well, we'll get you back to Frozen 2 premiere. Say hi to Ross for us. Yeah, say hi. Okay, all right. Well, we'll get you back to Frozen 2 premiere. Say hi to Ross for us.

Starting point is 00:14:36 or the high points of the week, and unfortunately, the low points of the week. This week, we decided to write haikus about life. A haiku is a Japanese poem consisting of 17 syllables, and one of us didn't quite know what that meant. As a community, we've all written haikus about our lives. I don't have a title for mine, but I've tried to be as relatable as possible.
Starting point is 00:14:56 Mine goes like this. I've lost an earpod. What am I having for tea? I need a haircut. That's good You know, it's trying to It sums up everything It's everyday life for everybody out there
Starting point is 00:15:10 Mine doesn't have a title either I'm just going to title it Life Grated cheese for dinner Netflix asks You still watching? Took my bra off When?
Starting point is 00:15:22 Do we need to do a syllable check on yours? Yeah, ready? Yeah, go slowly, yeah. Grated cheese for dinner. Oh, that sucks. Grated cheese for... Damn it! And last week, this was said on here.
Starting point is 00:15:37 I think the most famous person I've ever kissed on the lips. Tom Sainsbury. No, I haven't had the pleasure. He's so cute. I would definitely kiss him. So Ellie and I decided to get the man lips? Tom Sainsbury. No, I haven't had the pleasure. He's so cute. I would definitely kiss him. So Ellie and I decided to get the man himself, Tom Sainsbury, in the studio to give them both a kiss. Tom's just walked into the room carrying a dozen roses.
Starting point is 00:15:54 How are you here to kiss? Well, I'm here to kiss both of you. Are you? Yeah, I am. I've literally just had a coffee. Yeah, perfect. Don't try and... We are kissing, mate.
Starting point is 00:16:04 We are kissing. All right, here we coffee. Yeah, perfect. Don't try and... We are kissing, mate. We are kissing. All right, here we go. That was lovely. That was so, so good. I do love a man kiss. So I'm going to take these roses away from you and go to the next one. It's a beautiful thing. Do you want me to really turn it on?
Starting point is 00:16:16 I'd love you to really turn it on. Okay, get ready. Okay, three, two, one. Oh, it's open now. Wait for a full one. Oh, it's open now. I'm up full one. Oh, it's open mouth. I'm talking to it. Oh, I feel funny.
Starting point is 00:16:27 You're a good kisser. He's a really good kisser. I can't believe... I've kissed a celebrity. This week we asked you, why did you get suspended? David came in hot with a great story,
Starting point is 00:16:38 but it turns out Brie was more interested in him than the story itself. Hey, David. Hello. Hi, David. What happened? It was my first date
Starting point is 00:16:46 and I thought me and the lads would be good to go have a wee smoke. Your accent, can I say, David, before you continue, I love. That is a hot accent.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Thanks, man. Hey, mate, I think the same about your Aussie accent. It's cracking. Appreciate that, David. What about my Kiwi accent, David? S*** you, bro.
Starting point is 00:17:03 Love it. So you and the boys are smoking the Mary J at school. Got it. Yeah. And then we walked back and the teacher was asking where we were and we were saying that we were just having our beer down the Liffey. No idea what you said, but I enjoyed everything in this.
Starting point is 00:17:17 And I thought I'd end on the biggest high of the week. Do you think, Ali, do you think this needs a drumroll? I think it definitely needs a drumroll. Because I wouldn't normally do a drumroll. I think it definitely needs a drumroll. Okay, here we go do a drum roll. I think it definitely needs a drum roll. Okay, here we go. Let's do a drum roll. This was said on air, finally.
Starting point is 00:17:30 Tell us the story, you're in a safe place. Okay. Recently, I have started seeing someone. Okay. No, we're not making a big deal out of it. We're not making a big deal out of it. Can we make a small, big deal about it? No, no.
Starting point is 00:17:43 We know this. We've got to get to the story. This is not news to us. Can we make a small, big deal about it? No, no. We know this. I'm gonna get to the story. This is not news to us. We've been waiting. Can we have two seconds? Just two seconds. Look at the producers that are giving me the thumbs up.
Starting point is 00:17:52 Well done. Yeah. It's out there. Hey, Ben, I know you said that was the last bit, but I'd really like to touch on this off-air moment of Clint because I think it gives you
Starting point is 00:18:03 a really good insight into what he's really like. Like a positive insight? A positive, really great insight. Friendly, lovely. Play it. Check, check, check. Hello, hello, hello. When the mics are off. I'll send you that Reddit thread. Five minutes later.
Starting point is 00:18:18 Ben, where's this thread of this suspension thing? Is it on the sheet? Are you joking? He literally just walked in here thread of this suspension thing. Is it on the sheet? Are you joking? Right. He literally just walked in here and said
Starting point is 00:18:28 I just sent you guys the link to the thing. Where is it? Ringway. Mother f***ing line. I won't do the brain. I have no memory
Starting point is 00:18:38 of what you said. What do you mean? He literally just said I have no memory of it. And that's the high load for the week. Join us next week for another week of the Brian Clint Show. That's been, I think, my favourite off-air moment.
Starting point is 00:18:52 That wasn't me. That was a voice actor who sounds remarkably similar. He has no memory. Oh, I love it. ZM's Brian Clint, the podcast. We are the leading show for maritime and aviation-based news. Nobody even remembers how or why we assumed the mantle of being New Zealand's leading.
Starting point is 00:19:11 It was just pure fact. Yeah, right. We did the research of what was being broadcast, and we are the leaders. Yeah, also those looking for maritime and aviation news, we found were being drastically underserved with news. So we said, you know what? We can take up that.
Starting point is 00:19:28 We can take that on. I had a thought the other day that I just want to throw in here before we get to this amazing gayviation news. It's our first gayviation news too. Yeah, I thought, you know, maybe next year or something we could like open and spread our wings into, maybe we could, because we are the leaders in maritime and aviation, maybe next year we could even take the crown of rail.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Rail-based news. There's not a lot of it. Like we could just say that we are now. I'm happy to say it and just include it. Maybe just. And just if it ever comes up, if there's ever some rail news. I do love to ride that rail. Anyway, can we get into this gayviation news?
Starting point is 00:20:06 Of course. Do you mind if I can get into this? Yes. What's happening? No, the sound effect's been messed with again. And I told you this is our first rainbow aviation news. What you just did by changing that sound effect, that's homophobic. What you just did.
Starting point is 00:20:22 Yeah, it should have been more. Let's try this one. There we go. Air New Zealand is launching a rainbow flight from Auckland to Sydney. This is great. So on February the 28th next year, a special flight to Sydney for Mardi Gras. We need to catch this flight. And go to Mardi Gras.
Starting point is 00:20:45 Hell yes, we do. So it's a bit of a party on board. The whole flight is themed. When you get on, you will be entertained by two drag divas on board the flight as well. Oh, yes, please. Buck Wheat will be on there. And also Tess Tickle. I'm so keen.
Starting point is 00:21:03 Tess Tickle. That's a great name. Tess Tickle will be on the flight. Tess. Tessess Tickle That's a great name Tess Tickle will be on the flight Tess Tess Tickle Tess Tickle Wait I didn't get it
Starting point is 00:21:10 Tess Tess Tickle Tickle Tess Tickle Will be on the flight Specially themed cocktails Are going to be available on board
Starting point is 00:21:18 That's a hoot Plus prizes, games And dancing on the flight There's going to be dancing on the flight Do you reckon And I always have this I guess fantasy Plus prizes, games and dancing on the flight. There's going to be dancing on the flight. Do you reckon, and I always have this, I guess, fantasy that Britney Spears will come out like she does in the film clip for Toxic? Yes. This would be the place to do it for Britney.
Starting point is 00:21:36 With Martin Henderson. Yes. Yeah. That would be a great option as well. I would love to see that. And we'd go down a hoot on the Mardi Gras. It's called theardi Gras flight. The Pardi Gras.
Starting point is 00:21:46 Is it actually coloured rainbow? Because I saw a picture but I don't know if it's real. No, it'd cost a lot of money to colour a plane. Does it cost a lot of money? Yeah. Planes aren't that big, are they?
Starting point is 00:21:54 They're a little bit big. 499 return. That's good. That's pretty good. That's awesome. That's almost cheaper than a regular flight to Sydney. I do worry about,
Starting point is 00:22:03 I don't worry, it's their problem, but imagine that your slightly backwards older uncle gets on that flight and he doesn't know he's on the party graph flight and all of a sudden he's in a rainbow paradise. He is so far out of his depth. He's just, the one guy's like, I'll have a window seat, please. Window seat.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Hey, that would, I think, maybe make him embrace the rainbow community. Once he saw how fun it was. Oh, it'd be so much fun. The Pardigra flight. That's Friday, February the 28th. Possibly the most fun way to go to Sydney for Mardi Gras
Starting point is 00:22:37 if you're looking to do it on Air New Zealand. Did we say it was on Air New Zealand? Air New Zealand. We've got to get on that flight. I'm keen to get on it. And, interesting, I did read the hosties don't have to point out the exits on that flight. Why not?
Starting point is 00:22:52 Because everyone knows where they are. Gonna let that one simmer for a second. Brie and Clint, the podcast. ZM. Shall we play the one second song challenge? Time is waiting. You only get one second of a song.
Starting point is 00:23:11 No hesitating. You only got one second. One second. Oh, this game is so easy. You're a dick. This is the game where Bree and I compete. Well, it's meant to be a dick. This is the game where Bree and I compete. Well, it's meant to be a competition.
Starting point is 00:23:28 At guessing songs based on one second of audio. Are you right over there? Oh, I just feel like... You know how some people say the All Blacks were too good for too long and that's why they lost the World Cup? Because no one was challenging them enough? No one? No one was challenging them enough. No what? No one was challenging them enough.
Starting point is 00:23:45 Challenging? All I'm saying is the score for the year is 32 games to one, and I'd really like you to put some effort in this week, Bree. Oh, that's a nerve there. Mate, you're treading on ice, because I believe I've only lost the last however many games by one point. Exactly. You're very close. You're very close.

Starting point is 00:26:45 Thank you. Thank you! Enjoy that mobile fuel. Mr Humble has been humbled. ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast. If you've ever failed your driver's test, this story might make you feel a little bit better. Okay. Because there's a man...
Starting point is 00:27:00 Is this directed at me, is it? Is this a personal attack on me? Have you? Did you fail? Maybe. How many times? Just once. personal attack on me? Have you? Did you fail? Maybe. How many times? Just once. Okay. Was it manual or auto?
Starting point is 00:27:09 It was the scratchy test. It was my learner's. It wasn't even in a car. I think I failed that too. Oh, okay, good. Yeah. Good. Okay, sweet.
Starting point is 00:27:17 But I didn't fail the real driving test. Oh, no, smash that. Yeah, smash that. That's all that matters, right? Yeah, yeah. Get me behind the wheel, baby. I'm good to go. Who cares about the road rules?
Starting point is 00:27:24 It's just the theory. And as I say, as I've always said, and I think you say it too, theory's all that matters, right? Yeah, yeah. Get me behind the wheel, baby. I'm good to go. Who cares about the road rules? It's just the theory. And as I say, as I've always said, and I think you say it too, theory shmeary. Right? Right? That's how you should live your life. Exactly. I've got street smarts. That's all you need.
Starting point is 00:27:34 Get me on the road and I'm good to go. That's something this guy didn't have after he failed his driving theory test 27 times. Oh, he failed the... Okay, if you're failing it 27 times, you need to stop saying theory shmeary. You need to start study smutty. Yeah. Anyway, so the guy has failed. 27?
Starting point is 00:27:58 27 times. And we shouldn't laugh. No. But. No, we shouldn't laugh because he may have passed now. There needs to be a limit. So he hasn't passed yet. Good.
Starting point is 00:28:09 He came up with a plan where he hired and paid an impersonator to sit the test for him. So he paid a guy over $1,000, New Zealand, because this isn't in New Zealand, but he paid him a lot of money. There wouldn't be 27 questions. That's the thing. For him to fail it that many times. He'd be answering the same questions again.
Starting point is 00:28:35 Yes, exactly. Okay, so he pays someone to sit his license for him. So he paid an impersonator to go in and sit this test. Anyway, it was all good. The guy sat the test and he passed. That's a bad impersonation because if he was doing a real impersonation of that guy, he would have failed. But he'd failed so many times and the people there at the,
Starting point is 00:28:59 obviously where he takes the test, knew him so well, they were like, that's not you. Yeah, cool. Anyway, so he got taken to court for fraud, which he. How did he get to court? Uber. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:16 And then he ended up doing it again and hired another better, more lookalike impersonator and went to a different place. This guy by this stage must have spent thousands and thousands of dollars. Well, it would have cost a fortune, absolute fortune. Anyway, the guy passed, the second impersonator passed also. Yeah. And he got given the licence, so it was all good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:40 And then was later revoked after his name was put two and two together with this fraud case. Yeah, they go, oh, that's the fraud guy. Yeah, so they were just like, no. Not that it should impact at all. Do we have a country of reference for this story? I think it's somewhere in Britain. Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Yes. Because the story mentions pounds. He paid the person in pounds. Oh, okay. So the story mentions pounds. He paid the person in pounds. Oh, okay. So it must be somewhere. Poor guy. 27 times. 27 is the record.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Surely 27 is the record. It would be. There's no one out there this afternoon who has failed their driver's licence 27 times. No way. No. Or any kind of test 27 times. But if you've failed a couple of times and you're willing to have a laugh with us this afternoon,
Starting point is 00:30:29 why don't you give us a call? Bree and I are failures too. We both failed the theory part. We both did. Okay, we failed. So I'm a one-time failure. How many times are you? I'm a one-time.
Starting point is 00:30:37 One-time failure. But I'd also like to hear from the people who have failed the actual practical driving test. And I'd like to hear why you failed. One of my best friends was doing his driver's test. Yeah. And he was in the car and he was doing 50 k's an hour. And the driving instructor said,
Starting point is 00:30:54 okay, now speed up to 70 k's. And he speed up to 70 k's. And then he goes, this is a 50 k area. No, that's not fair. That's a real story. And he goes, but you told me to speed up. And he goes, yeah, you have to learn to deal with peer pressure. That is a trap.
Starting point is 00:31:13 It's a true story as well. That is such a trap. My driving instructor told me to do a burnout at the end. And did you? Yeah. And did you pass? Yeah, he was like, I just wanted to see if you could do it. And he goes, that was sick.
Starting point is 00:31:24 Australia is a very different country to New Zealand. 0800 dial ZM with your driver's license stories. How many times did you fail? Was it in the car? What happened? What did the instructor get you to do? We want to hear about it this afternoon. I'm so keen for these stories.
Starting point is 00:31:37 0800 dial ZM. You can text 9696. Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM. A man has failed his driving theory test 27 times and then he decided to hire an impersonator for over $1,000 to go in and sit it for him. But everyone at the place, I mean, he's been there so many times
Starting point is 00:31:58 to take the test. They were like, this is not you. No. And so he's been done for fraud. You have to know absolutely no idea about driving or cars or anything to fail 27 times. Let's be real. You have to be dangerously incompetent.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Exactly. Like if you've failed 27 times, you probably shouldn't have your licence. Like questions like, do you need to wear a seatbelt whilst driving? Ooh, this seems like a trick. I'm going to go with no. So we've asked you this afternoon on 0800 Dial ZM,
Starting point is 00:32:27 we want your failed driving test stories. Hi, Ange. Hi. Ange, tell us what happened. Okay, so I have failed my full licence in New Zealand three times. Okay. The first was like, you know, like when they check your Brake light or something And that didn't work
Starting point is 00:32:47 And then the second time I drove from Auckland to Whangarei To sit it And then she tripped me by asking me to do Something that I did but I should have Known better not to Same as my friend What was the thing she asked you to do So she was like oh can you turn right at the roundabout
Starting point is 00:33:04 But I wasn't in the right lane. So I was like, oh, yeah, sure. So I indicated. This is where it's all bull crap because when you get in the car, you sign a thing that says you will do exactly what the instructor tells you to. I know. Those are the rules. It's a bit unfair.
Starting point is 00:33:18 It's calling me a liar. Yeah. And I was like, ooh. Okay. And then the third time I was like mentally scarred and just like freaked out. But, Brie, I feel like you'll appreciate this. Yeah. I moved to Australia and then they just gave me a full licence.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Sounds about right. Yep. Well, no, you didn't do any driving. Do a burnout and maybe drop a few skids and they're like, yep, licence. You just go in the office and they go, all right, Old North Ford. And you go, hold on, baby. And they're like, boom. Yeah, and they go, you're in Old Nor Ford. And you go, Holden, baby. And they're like, boom. And they go, you're in.
Starting point is 00:33:46 You're in. Here's your license. So now I've moved back to New Zealand and I've got all of a sudden a full license. Amazing. You hacked the system. That's fantastic. Someone on the text machine said that I got my license in South Africa. The instructor fell asleep during my test.
Starting point is 00:34:01 So I coughed to wake him up as I didn't know where to go. Dot, dot, dot, I passed. Yeah. I think he goes, oh, look, I'll give you a licence if you don't tell anybody. Pretty much. Damien, you big failure. Welcome to the show. How many times you fail your licence, big guy?
Starting point is 00:34:17 All right, bro, so I only failed it once, but it was a bit of a palaver of a situation. So I was going for my full license in Christchurch, and I'd just come off shift work, so I went for my license, and the dude did the test, and at the end he said, oh, you failed. And I said, oh, why is that? And he goes, oh, you ran a stop sign.
Starting point is 00:34:37 And I was too tired to argue with him, so I was like, oh, yeah, whatever, sweet as. And then a week later, this dude turns up at home, and he said, oh, Damien Brixton, you did your license test on week later, this dude turns up at home. And he said, oh, Damien Brixton, you did your licence test on this date, blah, blah, blah. And I said, yeah,
Starting point is 00:34:49 well, what's up? And he goes, oh, we're investigating the instructor because he's being done for 200 counts of fraud. Oh my God. What?
Starting point is 00:34:57 Why? So the whole thing was is that, as an example, he was only supposed to test 15 people a day, but he was failing people on purpose so he could test 30 a day, so 30 a day
Starting point is 00:35:07 means more money in the pocket for him. What an arsehole. He made me get in the car and go for a drive and they said, right, so where'd you fail? And I said, oh, right here. And he said, but that's a giveaway sign. I went, yeah, you're right, it is a giveaway sign, son of a gun. Well done, Damien. Good save there,
Starting point is 00:35:24 my friend. Well done. Well, congrats. Well, hey, at least they got to the bottom of it. Damien, I'm standing up. I'm saluting you. That was a palaver. I love that word, palaver. We're proud to have you on our roads, Damien.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Let's talk to Maxine. Hi, Maxine. Hello. What happened to you? Did you fail? Yeah, mate. My motorbike learner's license, I had to do a practical test. Yes.
Starting point is 00:35:48 You did a wheelie, didn't you? Yeah, I tried, but I fell off. Yeah. Did you actually, wait, you actually fell off the motorbike? Yeah, I went around a little corner, honestly. Oh, no. It was like in this area where you were riding your bike. You had to ride your bike in this area with everyone else.
Starting point is 00:36:04 And I went around this corner, and I skidded off on gravel and I fell off. Yeah, but did you look dope? No, I felt like a dick, but I failed. Who looks dope falling off? You know, the super motorbike riders? The crusty demons. Yeah. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:36:21 Yeah, well, I wasn't crusty. You might have been a bit crusty after your scabs came through. Were you okay, Maxine? Yeah, I was fine. And so the next time I said, well, screw you guys. I'm going to hire your 50cc little scooter that doesn't go fast, and I'm going to use that, and I'm going to do that. Good idea.
Starting point is 00:36:39 And I'm going to crash it. Did you pass? I passed. Nice work, Maxine. Well done. Yeah, man. Oh, my God. She got the leather jacket and everything.
Starting point is 00:36:49 One more text on this for when do you fail your driver's test. Someone texted through. They said, Bree and Clint, I know a girl who hit a parked car during her practical test and she still passed fielding, yo. Yeah. Wow. Do you reckon that was Caitlin? She's from fielding, yo. Yeah. Wow. Do you reckon that was Caitlin? She's from fielding. Could have been. ZM's Bree and Clint, the podcast.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Last night, Bree, I took myself on a date. Just me. Because, Bree, it's important to remember, okay? It's important to remember you should go and love yourself. You know when you can. What did you decide
Starting point is 00:37:27 to treat yourself to? It's a little backstory. Yes. My wife, Lucy, who I love very much, and my baby, Tui, who I love just as much, are not here this week.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Are they listening right now? No, they don't get Zed in where they are unless they have iHeartRadio on, in which case, Alexa, change the radio station. No, they're away for the week. Our house is getting painted, so they've gone away to her parents' place. So you had some time to yourself.
Starting point is 00:37:58 I've had the whole week to myself. And selfishly, it's been good to catch up with you. I went out with you for a night. Yes, caught up with Ben. Watched Top Gun with producer Ben. The only person you haven't caught up with is producer Ellie. She came to the house the other day and met Tui, okay? You've all had your one-on-one Clint time.
Starting point is 00:38:16 Let's not get jealous of each other, okay? No, we're all jealous. We want more. Last night was all about me though. Last night. This is how it happened. So truth be told, I don't know what to do with myself. Right.
Starting point is 00:38:28 Now that Tui and Lucy are not around. You're kind of like, wait, what is this feeling that I have? It's too much freedom. It's free time. Yeah, and I find myself just going 55 videos deep on TikTok. I'm like, I could go to the gym. It's a good way to spend your time. Hit the driving range or something.
Starting point is 00:38:42 I just go into social media. You literally said to me the other day, you're like, I had all these plans to do all this stuff and you're like, and then I just end up sitting on my phone till one in the morning and then I'm like, what have I done all night? It's so true. But last night I thought, no, no, there's one more night
Starting point is 00:38:58 of this. I'm going to make the most of it. I'm going to do something for me. I was sitting in my backyard at 8.30, drinking alone and I thought, because this is the thing when you have a kid Do something for me. I was sitting in my backyard at 8.30 drinking alone. And I thought, because this is the thing when you have a kid too, you can't go and see new movies. Well, no. So I've just decided I'm not going to see Joker.
Starting point is 00:39:15 I'm not going to see any of that. And I thought, no, I'm going to do it. And last night at 8.30 I brought up the listings and I saw Jojo Rabbit was on at 9 o'clock. So I took myself on a solo date to the movies. You know what? And I think if you are myself on a solo date to the movies. You know what? And I think if you are going on a solo date, it's the safest and best place to do it is at the movies.
Starting point is 00:39:32 Because no one can see you crying in the dark. Exactly. No one looks at you and goes, oh, look at that sad person. I went down to the movies. I bought myself a chop top and I bought myself a glass of wine. And sat in the back row. I picked a seat where there was no one else around. I had a whole row to myself. These guys then came and sat right
Starting point is 00:39:49 next to me. I'm like, dude, the cinema is empty. You could sit anywhere and they sat beside me but that was okay. I thought you were going to say and then I went into the cinema and I saw someone and I sat next to them to make me feel like I wasn't alone. Awkwardly went and sat with them but no, it was nice. It is nice to do stuff by yourself feel like I wasn't alone. Awkwardly went and sat with them, but no, it was nice.
Starting point is 00:40:05 It was a nice bit of personal time. It is nice to do stuff by yourself sometimes. I have not told my wife about it because... She didn't want to see that film, did she? It doesn't matter whether she wanted to or not. We're not going to be able to go to the movies for the next six to 12 months. I thought you were going to say six to 12 years.
Starting point is 00:40:24 It's just one of those situations, probably that too. It's one of those situations where I would pick up the phone and go, I had the nicest night last night, Luce. And I was going to share it, but I picked up the phone. Don't do that. She goes, I said, morning, babe. And she goes, hey, Tui didn't sleep at all last night. And I was like, oh, man, me neither.
Starting point is 00:40:40 Brie and Clint, the podcast. Okay, enough mucking around. And now it's time for Brie and Clint the podcast ZM okay enough mucking around and now it's time for Brie and Clint's most popular segment Friday Oki I love Friday Oki it's the best I listen every Friday
Starting point is 00:40:56 I never miss Friday Oki thanks Brie and Clint you've made my Friday again Friday Oki the only thing that animals hate more than fireworks, it's Friday Oki, where we attempt to sing for you to see who is the least worst on a Friday afternoon.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Because we're both not great. I am probably one of the most tone-deaf people I have ever encountered myself. And yet we persist. This week, Brie has chosen this song for a very tenuous tie-in. Why is Carly Rae Jepsen
Starting point is 00:41:33 She is coming to New Zealand in like three weeks. Well let's do this song in three weeks. Um, you chose a Christmas song last week. Because it was the first of November
Starting point is 00:41:43 when you start Christmasing. No! It's December 1st. Anyway, um, Brie set a song last week. Because it was the 1st of November when you start Christmasing. No, it's December 1st. Anyway, Bree said a rule last week that if you choose the song, you go first. No, you go second. No, you said last week you go first. Didn't she?
Starting point is 00:41:57 No, if you choose the song, you go second. Fine, okay. What you need to do, New Zealanders, we get you to listen to both songs and then we ask you if you would mind calling 0800DALS.M and picking the winner. If you're still listening by the end of it.
Starting point is 00:42:11 So I start? Is that what we do? Yes. I start? Okay. Sorry in advance. Here it comes. Go, mate. Get it. My Friday Oki of Carly Rae Jepsen. I threw a wish in a well
Starting point is 00:42:21 Don't ask me, I'll never tell I looked at you as it fell And now you're in my way I trade my soul for a wish in a well, don't ask me, I'll never tell. I looked at you as it fell, and now you're in my way. I'd trade my soul for a wish, pennies and dimes for a kiss. I wasn't looking for this, but now you're in my way. Your stare was holding, ripped jeans, skin was showing, hot night wind was blowing. Where you think you're going, baby? Hey, I just met you. And this is crazy.
Starting point is 00:42:48 But here's my number. So call me maybe. It's hard to look right at you, baby. But here's my number. So call me maybe. Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad. I missed you so bad. I missed you so bad. I missed you so, so bad.
Starting point is 00:43:08 Before you came into my life, I missed you so bad. And you should know that I missed you so, so bad. I'm really sorry. Yeah, not something I'm proud of there. I didn't think it was that bad. You reckon? Yeah, you're on time. You know when something is so far above your range
Starting point is 00:43:27 Your voice did sound strained in a few parts I've been thinking about doing some vocal warm ups And maybe that would help to loosen it up But um Oh well What is it? Unique New York Red lorry yellow lorry
Starting point is 00:43:40 Red lorry yellow lorry I E I O U Here comes Brie You need to hear both before. Here comes Brie. You need to hear both before you vote, okay? Brie's attempt at Carly Rae Jepsen for Friday Okie. This is ZM. I threw a wish in the well Don't ask me, I'll never tell
Starting point is 00:43:55 I looked to you as it fell And now you're in my way I trade my soul for a wish Pennies and dimes for a kiss I wasn't looking for this, but now you're in my way, your stare was holding, ripped jeans skin was showing, hot night
Starting point is 00:44:11 wind was blowing, where you think you're going baby? Hey I just met you, and this is crazy, but here's my number, so call me maybe, it's hard to look right at you, baby. But here's my number, so call me maybe.
Starting point is 00:44:31 Before you game into my life, I miss you so bad. I miss you so bad. I miss you so, so bad. Before you game into my life, I miss you so bad. And you should know that I miss you so, so bad. So Callie Rae Jetson would sound like if she was from Queensland. I'll take that as a compliment. We're looking for your votes now. Okay, we're about to open the phone lines.
Starting point is 00:44:58 0800 dial ZM. Five votes will pick the winner. Some early feedback coming through. Guys, I'd prefer you play that fart song that you played yesterday instead of this segment. Someone else said it's getting really hard to convince the office to keep ZM on when you're playing Dying Cats on the radio. What about the person that goes, call me maybe, maybe not.
Starting point is 00:45:21 We love it. Keep those texts coming through. We appreciate it. We'll take five votes and crown a winner for Friday Oki, as we do every Friday. ZM, Spree and Clint, the podcast. Friday Oki. I just realised something about Friday Oki.
Starting point is 00:45:37 This may be New Zealand's only non-vegan radio segment because any animals that hear this have definitely been harmed. Yep. You know? It's true. There's a pitch, especially this week, that I think is just so shrill. It's so hard to listen to.
Starting point is 00:45:52 So if you have survived this far, thank you. We appreciate you. This week we sung Carly Rae Jepsen. I sounded like this. Before you came into my life I missed you so bad And you should know that
Starting point is 00:46:04 I missed you so, so bad And Bree sounded like this. I'm not going to lie. I think it's one of my better weeks. I think. Let's see if people agree. Hi, Rebecca. Hi, guys. How are you?
Starting point is 00:46:24 Hello, Bec. Happy Friday. You're casting the first vote in Friday Oki this week. Who you got? Well, I went based on my dog's reaction. Right. And he did actually look around the car looking for the cat when Clint was singing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:40 He loves the cat. It's a good thing. Yeah. No, he doesn't like cats. That's the thing. He got really excited. But I liked Clint better. Oh.
Starting point is 00:46:49 I have to say. I love that you're even surprised. I do think you're improving each week. You think I'm improving? Yeah, I think you're improving. I thoroughly appreciate it. And I'm not? Well, Bree.
Starting point is 00:47:00 Yeah, no, that's fair enough. Fair enough, yeah. That's good feedback. Hi, Sean. Hi, Sean. G'day, g'day. How are we? Oh, pretty good for a Friday.
Starting point is 00:47:08 Not good after that though, Sean? Oh, well, I'll tell you what. Bree, I think you actually were pretty good this week, eh? Thank you, Sean. I appreciate that. Good enough to get your vote? Yeah, yeah. She gets the vote.
Starting point is 00:47:21 Clint, mate, you just climbed too much into your throat, into your head voice. It was easily strained, bro. you just climbed too much into your throat, into your head voice. It was easily strained, bro. If you've got to sit in your chest voice, you did imitation. You imitated. You should have sung your own voice, cousin. Okay, Sean, I appreciate that.
Starting point is 00:47:33 That's good advice, Sean. Are you saying maybe draw more from the diaphragm than from the back of the throat? Yeah, your tongue was rising up in the back of your throat. You're hitting your head notes, cousin. It was straining. It was too brief and way more comfortable. Thank you, notes because it was straining. It was way more comfortable. Thank you, Sean.
Starting point is 00:47:47 Sean knows his stuff. Yeah, he does, doesn't he? Okay, it's one all. Hey, Vae. Hi, Vae. Hello. Tell us what you think, Vae. Friday, Oki.
Starting point is 00:47:54 What are you thinking? Sorry, Bree. You can't sing. You just can't sing. Yeah, no, that's the point of the segment, Vae. I don't know. How do you tell someone they can't sing? What's after you can segment, Vae. I don't know. How do you tell someone they can't sing? What's after you can't sing?

Starting point is 00:48:33 based on the fact that it was so far out of your range, I really thought you put in a good, decent effort, so my vote goes to Clint. Wow. I feel robbed this week, I have to be honest. Most of the time I can be like, yeah, no, that's fair enough.
Starting point is 00:48:47 I know the feeling when you think you did better. Yeah. I do feel like I was better. But I also think that you think you did better than you did. Like listening to you and... No, yeah, probably.

They've got 5 There's someone inside my computer at the moment And I can't figure out who it is Saying Ross is away, time for a triple play time for more five who is saying that i don't know
Starting point is 00:59:31 who it is but i'm tempted i'm i'm really tempted and there is one more really good five song that deserves playing let's see let's start it and then we'll feel it if we want. We'll know. Well, there's 13 seconds. I think we'll know. Let's start it. Yeah, okay. Let's start it.
Starting point is 00:59:48 So there's 13 seconds where we could stop it and get out. Okay, great. As a safety. And then as a duo, you and I, we will be able to look at each other and know. We'll have to think on our toes though. Okay, you ready? All right. Okay, count me in.
Starting point is 01:00:01 Count me in. Three, two, one. Six seconds. We might have to delete some ad breaks at this rate. Two, one. We're doing it. Let's play. The Better Things Are Coming Our Way Gotta hold on and not stop till the break of dawn and keep moving. Don't stop rocking. Get on up when you're down, baby. Take a good look around.

We'll keep on moving on anyway. So good. Keep on moving. Keep on moving. Keep on moving. That might be the first ever five triple play. Every one of the officers turned up in the studio. They're loving it. It's Friday.
Starting point is 01:03:22 You guys are meant to be at home. And yet somehow we play three five songs in a row And everybody sticks around Some good text coming through Some major good feelings going on I love how loose you guys are Well Ross is away so Literally our boss is currently on the red carpet Pretending he's a celebrity at the Frozen 2 premiere
Starting point is 01:03:40 So that's what happens Someone else said I had a shit week and this made me so happy. That's why we do it. Five, four, three, two, one, let's do it. Do it. Zidim, Spree and Clint, the podcast.
Starting point is 01:03:58 We asked you just before to text through on 9696. What is your top worry at the moment? What do you worry most about? Which I probably should have given more categories because I think that's a pretty broad question, isn't it? Yeah. Someone's going to tell me how El Camino ends before I see it.
Starting point is 01:04:18 Well, that could be someone's number one worry, couldn't it? And if it is, that's fine. That's fine. There's a study that's been done and it was posted on the website YouDo. And it's pretty much the top worries for New Zealanders. Someone's texted and said, my top worry is Bree becoming a New Zealand citizen. We would love to have you as a New Zealand citizen.
Starting point is 01:04:42 That one hurt me. It's just we have a really big methane problem at the moment with our agriculture. Oh, no, okay, I do get that. I do. I understand. I understand. I get it.
Starting point is 01:04:53 Anyway, so from this study, the top five worries from New Zealanders came through in the data. And I'd like people to text through once they've heard all the categories as to what is their top one from these five. Sure. And we'll see if the results are somewhat correct. So I want you guys to do it as well, producers, producer Ellie, producer Ben.
Starting point is 01:05:16 I'm going to give you the five and then all of you, I want you to tell me what is your top one from those five. Okay, cool. Go for it. All right. So the first one is relationships. Got it. Is one of the top worries.
Starting point is 01:05:28 Work. Appearance. Having enough time to get everything done. And another one of the top fives was finances. Oh, yeah. So out of those five things. Time. Having enough time to get everything done is your top concern.
Starting point is 01:05:46 Yeah, since having our baby toady. Yeah, that's fair. It has just evaporated. But that's just me personally. Having enough time, which creates stress, which creates other problems. It's a roll on effect. That's what I'll go with. What about you guys, producers? Producer Ben, what's your top worry out of those five? Probably from that list, I'd
Starting point is 01:06:02 probably say time as well. Time? Okay, having enough time to get everything done. Yeah. Maybe you should get up before 8.30 then. That would help. No, you told me last week, you're like, oh, lifeless and Ben, get up at 7. Yeah. I mean, I'm doing it every day and then I go back to sleep for an hour and a half.
Starting point is 01:06:17 You know what? Well, that's fair. Technically, he's getting up. Because I'm tired. I hate when people are like, oh, no millionaire gets up at 8.30. They don't. No, they do. Yeah, but they do now that they're a millionaire. Well like, oh, no millionaire gets up at 8.30. They don't. No, they do. Yeah, but they do now that they're a millionaire.
Starting point is 01:06:27 Well, Drake does, but he's in the studio until one in the morning. I love Drake. Ellie? Finances. Yeah. You said finances. That would be a really big one. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:37 Everything is getting more expensive except the amount you get paid, right? Exactly. Exactly right. So I'm going to give it to you from five backwards. Okay. So the number five. So is it for Kiwis? For Kiwis, the number five top concern,
Starting point is 01:06:52 the most thing people are worried about is appearance at number five. Yeah. Which I get that because it's becoming a lot more, I guess, prominent in society these days that people care. But it's number five. We're least worried about that one. Yeah, but it's still one of the top five. Yeah, but this is the country where you wear jandals to a wedding.
Starting point is 01:07:12 Yeah, it's true. But people are just more concerned about going to the gym and what they eat and all that stuff, which is not a bad thing. Number four? Number four is relationships. Yeah. Which I feel like that should be one. Relationships is a broad term.
Starting point is 01:07:25 Like workplace relationships, personal relationships. Romantic relationships. What is it? Your new relationship. Okay, moving on. The top three. Because you're in one. Biggest worry.
Starting point is 01:07:38 Yes, yeah, okay, whatever. The top three is work. Yeah. Which I kind of get that one. That's probably, you know, it's where people spend most of their time. Yeah. So, of course, they're going to worry about that. Number two is having enough time to get everything done,
Starting point is 01:07:51 which means finances are the top concern for Kiwis right now. It's unfortunate. I think it would be the case for most of the world, though. But, yeah, it is unfortunate. Doesn't it suck that, you know, that is one of the top concerns in life? Live to work or work to live, am I right? Yeah. What did my pa used to say?
Starting point is 01:08:10 He was like, I work to actually live. Yeah. I don't live to work. So he knew exactly what I was talking about. Yeah. I remember hearing that from him when I was really young, and he was definitely someone who actually lived and breathed that quote. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:24 Okay. Well, that's interesting. Yeah. Okay. Well, that's interesting. Yeah. Okay. Enjoy your weekend, New Zealand. Relax. Yes. Take some you time.
Starting point is 01:08:31 And like I said earlier in the show. You should go and love yourself. You know? Nice. Interpret that how you want. Brie and Clint, the podcast. ZM. We've got some McDonald's news.
Starting point is 01:08:48 Somewhere I'm sure a lot of Kiwis are going to end up tonight Tomorrow morning Tomorrow night Yep Late into the early hours of Sunday morning Yes Sunday brunch Sunday night And then Sunday night as well
Starting point is 01:08:58 Yeah It's a multi-purpose meal Especially now that they do a 24-hour breakfast menu This story that is doing the rounds is from a McDonald's in Rolleston, which is just outside of Christchurch, isn't it, producer Ben? Rolleston? Yep, mate. That's really close to where my parents live, actually.
Starting point is 01:09:13 Oh, okay. It's got seven days. Oh, your parents could go get a part of this. Yeah, I actually didn't even know they had a McDonald's there. In Rolleston? Yeah. Looks fairly new. Yeah, it would be.
Starting point is 01:09:22 From what I can see. Yeah. The shift manager in Rolleston, her name is Lizzie Tremaine, said at 5pm on Tuesday this week, some people were in the drive-thru, and the lady who was paying for her food just randomly said to the teller, hey, I'd like to pay for the car behind me as well.
Starting point is 01:09:42 She didn't know the car behind her, and it's, I guess, a truly selfless act because by the time you've paid for it and the other person finds out. You're gone. You're gone. Yeah. So the next person pulls up to the window
Starting point is 01:09:53 and she said, hey, that lady in front paid for your order. And it wasn't a small order. The order behind her was about 50 bucks. Whoa. Yeah. Right. So I never, like, it always amazes me what obviously triggers something in someone to do something like that. You know, where they just think, oh, I'm going to pay for that person's meal today.
Starting point is 01:10:12 As a scout, as a Boy Scout, the motto of the Boy Scouts is to do one good turn every day. Yeah. So maybe this person had a scouting background. I don't know. But this is what it does. This is what it inspires. So this person who had their meal paid for and wasn't expecting it was so overwhelmed, they said,
Starting point is 01:10:27 oh, well, I would like to pay for the person behind me then. Cool. And so they then paid for the car behind them. And then when that person got up to the window, they then said, what the heck is going on? I was here willing to pay for a meal. I'd like to pay for the car behind me. It went on for eight cars.
Starting point is 01:10:45 Eight cars in a row were so taken aback by this thing at the Rolleston McDonald's in the South Island that they paid for the car behind them even though they didn't have to. So who was the selfish person that broke the chain? Exactly right. Who was in car number eight? Who is that person?
Starting point is 01:11:02 And they went, Chirp. Literally. Which you are well within your rights to do. Yeah, I mean, you know. number eight. Who is that person? And they went, literally. Which you are well within your rights to do. Yeah, I mean, you know. But what a beautiful thing if you did just keep it going. What a cool thing. But I mean, it kind of cancels each other out, doesn't it? It needs to
Starting point is 01:11:18 be a secret because otherwise if I knew it was happening and especially if I was behind you, I would load up. I would pull up to the window and I'd go, can I have two of everything? Yeah, I didn't even think about that. And I'd get the menu and then you would pay for it
Starting point is 01:11:35 and I just hope the car behind me didn't know about it and they just said, oh, one Filet-O-Fish, please. That's it. And that's it. And you get away with paying for one Filet-O-Fish. Anyway, eight's impressive. I thought that was a beautiful thing that's happened this week you get away with paying for, you know, one, yeah, Filet-O-Fish. Anyway, eight's impressive. I thought that was a beautiful thing that's happened this week. Have you ever paid for anybody's anything?
Starting point is 01:11:49 There's one story that comes to mind, makes me upset actually thinking about it. I used to live in a suburb in Brisbane called Mount Gravatt. Yeah. And right near my house there was this local countdown that I used to go to every week. And one week I went there and there was this older woman. I reckon she would have been probably in her late 70s, quite old. And she looked really confused at the checkout and she looked really kind of, yeah, she didn't really know where she was.
Starting point is 01:12:17 And anyway, she had no money at the time and she'd put all the groceries through and then I ended up paying, I think it was about $170 worth of groceries. Wow. Because she didn't have any money and she thought that she did. Anyway, I talked to the girl who was serving her and she goes, she actually comes here all the time and she's got Alzheimer's. Oh, I see. Anyway, I then said to the woman afterwards, I said,
Starting point is 01:12:44 oh, do you need help getting home? She's like, oh, yep, that would be great. She's like, and then she started crying and she actually couldn't remember where she lived. Oh, man. And we ended up driving around and actually had a great time and we were having a laugh and yarning. Yeah. And eventually, I think it took us an hour and a half to find her house, but we found
Starting point is 01:13:02 it. Yeah. Found it and put her inside. And yeah, she was very, very thankful. But she was lovely. That story is quite sad though, isn't it? It was really sad. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:12 But I think the saddest part for me is that she, I didn't want her to be alone. No. And I feel like that was probably, you know, obviously. You did something. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. There you go, New Zealand. If you want to feel good about yourself this weekend,
Starting point is 01:13:27 have a look at the person behind you in the McDonald's queue. And provided they don't look too hungry, maybe you could pay for their food. Pick and choose, people. ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast. This is good news for people who constantly forget to take the pill. Are you one of those people? No, I'm pretty good.
Starting point is 01:13:46 You know what I do so I don't forget. Mash it up and put it in your food like a cat? Yeah, I drug my own food. No, I put it in my makeup bag so that when I go to put my makeup on every day, it's sitting right there so I don't forget. That's a good idea. Yeah. Little systems.
Starting point is 01:14:02 You could also tape it to the bottle of rosé that you drink each day. I mean, that would... And then you wouldn't forget as well. It would force me to remember. Yeah, you're right. But, yeah, so this is good news for people who do forget because researchers have developed a new contraceptive patch, they're calling it.
Starting point is 01:14:19 Like a stick-on patch? Yeah, like a stick-on patch which can be worn once and then thrown away. So essentially it's called a micro-needle patch, where it has little needles on the other side of the patch, and it injects you with the stuff that it needs to inject you with. Yeah, right. And you wear it once for a whole month. So you just put it on.
Starting point is 01:14:46 It takes 10 seconds. Yeah. And then you rip it off and you're good to go. Yeah. Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. So you apply it to yourself? Yes. And how long does it stay on your body?
Starting point is 01:14:57 They said it can take up to 10 seconds. Oh, yeah. And then you take it off? And then you take it off. And then you're good for a month? And then you're good for a month.
