Afternoon New Zealand
Happy Friday
Was it just me or did anyone hear a far off ship in the distance?
No I think there's a ship actually coming into the port
Is it?
It's getting closer I think
Oh it's docking
Not just docks
It's here
Great news
Big show today
Exciting show
We have
Celebrity
Special guest
Charlie XCX
She'll be on the show
With us just after 5.30
Of course tonight
She opens for
Taylor Swift
At Mount Smart Stadium
In Auckland
And I think she gets
On the stage with Georgia from Broods at one point during the show.
Yes, she does.
Broods opening for Charli XCX is opening for Taylor Swift.
That is a great line-up.
What a huge night.
That is awesome.
Yeah.
That's great.
Hey, it's great for the industrial suburb of Penrose
to have superstars like Taylor Swift come in.
Penrose.
Right next to where they scrap the old Hondas.
What a beautiful spot.
What a beautiful part
of New Zealand
to show our visiting dignitaries.
What a great showcase.
Get yourself there early.
Visit the local cafes.
That's a very Auckland joke
by the way
for the rest of the country.
Penrose is what's
colloquially known
as a bit of a crap hole.
A dump.
Yeah.
I mean it's good
if you're looking to run
like a welding business or something like that.
Or a meth lab.
Yeah, but that's where we send all the big concerts.
We send Paul McCartney there and he's a bloody Beatle.
He goes, where the hell am I?
Yeah.
Anyway, good luck.
If you're heading there for the concert at 7 o'clock,
I'd probably leave now.
Yeah, leave now if you want to get there at about 8.30.
Yeah, that'd be good.
Hey, up next, I overheard a conversation.
I was listening last night at dinner,
and I need to tell you about it.
Okay.
Because it is ridiculous.
Was it a conversation you were allowed to be listening to?
Or is it one of those filming Lord Through a Window Again type situations?
I mean, I'll tell you what I heard, and then you be the judge.
Okay, sounds good.
We'll do it after a Friday jam
from Tayo Cruz.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
I don't want to sound like the fun police,
but that song from Tayo Cruz
gets you ready for the weekend,
am I right? I was going to say it sends
a horrific message regarding binge
drinking. That line where he goes, I've got a hangover and I've got an empty cup,
so pull me some more.
And then he goes, I want to go until I'm toe up.
I'm going to drink until I throw up.
Man, 2010 was a different time, wasn't it?
But we're not allowed to say anything about drinking.
We need to say drink responsibly.
God, no, Nor would we.
But Tayo Cruz, you do what you want, mate.
Tayo Cruz.
You get it.
Let us know if you need some support when you get here for Friday Jams,
which is on Sunday.
Excellent plug.
Fantastic plug.
Get there.
Ticket master.
Still tickets available.
We'll bring him a Barocco, I think.
Speaking of drinks, last night I went out to dinner with my mate Sophie,
who's visiting.
Yeah.
And we got some cocktails and we got some food.
It was great.
We got sat in an area of the restaurant where it was all two people,
so they were really close tables.
Oh, I see.
Yeah.
So it was all couples.
Did they make you share a table?
No.
I hate that.
I don't know about the communal table.
They go, this is a modern restaurant.
The plates are for sharing and so are the tables.
I don't want to sit next to them.
And I don't want to share their cup.
And they're like, you don't share the cups.
And you're like, oh, sorry about that.
I don't want to eat what they're eating.
Sorry about that.
You shouldn't.
Stop.
Not yours.
Anyway, we got sat next to, like the tables are really close together.
Yeah.
And I couldn't help but notice a conversation that was happening on the table across from me.
And so I listened.
What is it called?
Is it eavesdropping?
Yes.
And I was listening.
There's two women and they were talking and they were talking about Instagram.
And one of the women goes, oh, I just started following this really interesting cat on Instagram.
I love the age that we live in. That's a thing to talk about and to do.
In my brain, ooh, I want to know what cat.
Ooh, who's the cat?
I was like, what cat?
The cat I'm following has got quite boring.
I'm keen for a new cat.
And in my mind, I was like, say the handle, say the handle,
so I can follow this cat also.
Anyway, I was like, what makes this cat so interesting?
So she went on, she was like, yeah, it's a real interesting cat.
Its name's Alfie.
The handle's at Alfie Hayes the cat, if you want to look.
And she said it's really interesting because the cat uses a toilet.
What?
A human toilet.
Cat's got indigestion.
She went on to say... She went on to say...
Okay, I get it.
Sorry.
She went on to say that the cat...
It was a long one.
Yeah.
The cat had been out with Tayo Cruz. Sorry. She wanted to say that the cat... It was a long one. Yeah.
The cat had been out with Tayo Cruz.
It was a one-and-a-half-year-old ragdoll.
Oh, yeah.
And... God, people love a ragdoll.
I love a ragdoll cat.
Pick him up, shake him around.
Well, don't do that, but that's what you can do.
They just go all floppy.
That's why they call them ragdolls.
Adorable cat.
The thing that I didn't understand
with the conversation these two women were having is
when she said that the cat used a toilet.
Oh yeah, we've got to get back to that bit.
Like, let's get back to that.
Yeah.
The cat has been trained to use a toilet, just like on Meet the Fockers.
That's fantastic.
Yeah.
As the owner of two cats who do their business in dubious places sometimes.
They do it in your gym bag.
I said dubious places.
They don't even do it in the litter box or outside.
We've had to put rocks in the pot plants
because the cats were thinking those were indoor toilets.
So if we could train them to use the actual toilet, fantastic.
My mind goes to the other woman wasn't even that shocked.
Like in my mind, I was like, what?
That is unbelievable. She was kind of like not that
impressed by it she was like oh yeah how do you train the cat to flush is the thing because they've
they've got limited strength the cat and limited weight as well do you just train it to do it in
the bowl and you get in there and there's a cat floater and you just go no problem the cat's done
the best you know best that it could. The biggest issue.
Cat skitties on the bowl.
No, they're little ones.
Yeah, yeah.
They wouldn't do skids.
The biggest issue is are they going to half flush or full flush?
When they do their business.
Yeah.
Because, I mean, the cat's, you know.
You're talking about the size of the.
No, the cat, is it intelligent enough to use, you know.
Oh, the cat a conservationist.
Let's talk about water usage.
Sure.
Because, I mean, of all the cats in the world.
This conversation's gone in every other direction.
Why don't we talk about the environmental impact of cats using toilets?
Did you get the handle of the cat?
Yeah, I did.
So if you want to look up the cat, I've already looked it up.
Yeah.
At Alfie Hayes, the cat.
At Alfie Hayes, the cat.
Lives in Auckland.
Beautiful cat.
And if you want to see two cats who don't know how to use the toilet
and love to poo in their owner's gym bag,
look up Ziggy and Bowie, the wonder cats.
Equally as entertaining.
Wonderful.
All wonderful cats.
Radio killer.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
Brace yourselves, New Zealand.
We are in the grips of a banana apocalypse.
It's a banana apocalypse.
Is this like the same thing as the fan apocalypse?
Fanpocalypse.
Fanpocalypse.
Oh, God, I've got no time for fanpocalypse and heatpocalypse.
Oh, heat apocalypse.
I assume you're talking about every season when the warehouse and Bunnings and Mitre 10 all go,
we've sold out of fans because there's a heat wave.
When I first got here to NZ in January,
I was like, oh, I need a fan.
It's pretty hot.
No fans.
I could not get a fan.
I had to literally barter with someone,
some random off trade me to get one.
Oh, you'll buy a broken fan that's only got two blades left
for 150 bucks. It's hot and you need something. Oh, you'll buy a broken fan that's only got two blades left for $150.
It's hot and you need something.
Fine for you as an immigrant, but
my question is,
what's everyone doing with their fans every year?
Where are they all going? Do you throw them out?
You go, it's not hot anymore, I won't need this fan
again. Throw it in the bin and then you go,
oh, someone's back. I just had a great idea.
What? We should stockpile a bunch of
fans now and then give them away on the show. For Fanpocalypse. For Fan just had a great idea. What? We should stockpile a bunch of fans now
and then give them away on the show.
For fanpocalypse.
For fanpocalypse.
Great idea.
Same thing with winter.
With the heaters.
Where's all the heaters and electric blankets?
Yep.
Just keep your one from last year.
Sorry, we're talking about banana-pocalypse.
New Zealand is about to run out of bananas.
How?
Countdown, New World and pack and save supermarkets
are facing a loose banana shortage due to unforeseen shipping issues.
A boat which brings the bananas in from Mexico and Ecuador.
What, a banana boat?
A banana boat.
Sun safe protection.
They're very same.
I think it brings bananas and sunscreen with it.
Is it 30 plus?
Some kind of weather issue means it's had to take a detour.
No bananas.
A banana boat.
No, a banana apocalypse.
A banana apocalypse.
The banana boat is not coming, so we're facing banana apocalypse.
Yeah, you're right.
Banana boat.
Banana boat.
Can you tell it's Friday?
This is...
That's actually...
The statement from Foodstuffs says,
the good news is we expect supply to be back to normal
by the end of the month.
End of the month?
That is a long time.
It's a long time between banana boats,
which makes me go,
did these boats come in once a month?
And how do you guys keep your bananas fresh for so long?
Because when I buy bananas, they don't even last a week in the fruit bowl.
Mate, my dad is an apple farmer.
You don't want to know.
You're the daughter of a fruit farmer, aren't you?
Yes, I am.
I've got a lot of apple knowledge.
How do they keep them fresh?
Okay.
So apples.
I don't know much about bananas.
Yeah. So this is going to't know much about bananas. Yeah.
So this is going to blow a few people's minds.
Or maybe it's just me because I'm interested in the apple business.
Well, you're due to inherit it. So you know when
and I'm not going to say this is all the time.
So apples don't grow all year round.
Yeah. Shock, horror.
But no fruit does.
But no fruit does. But we expect
them year round. Exactly right. Because that's the society we live in now, now, now.
Exactly right.
So I know for a fact apples literally stay in a cold room,
which is like a massive big fridge, but it's actually cold and then a fridge.
They literally get the temperature and they keep them in this cold room
for eight months.
Eight months.
So just before new apple season starts,
you're eating apples from nearly a year ago.
Are you kidding me?
No shit.
A year old?
So you know when, you know when, I love apple facts,
you know when you eat an apple and someone says,
oh, this is a bad apple and it's flowery?
Yeah.
You know that term?
Yes.
Where it's like soft?
Yeah.
I hate that. That's because it's probablyy. Yeah. You know that term? Yes. Where it's like soft? Yeah. I hate that. That's because
it's probably nine months old.
Oh, that's disappointing.
That is actually why. There's no such thing as
a bad apple. It's because it's old.
How do you like them apples? Not very
much.
Are you going to go into the apple
business? Hell no.
It's a tough, tough job.
You have to, don't you?
Apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
I think you need to go to the doctor.
Okay, let's take a break.
The conversation yesterday in Birthday Banger was about J-Lo and it came up because her song spun up on Birthday Banger
and we got to talking about how hot she is. For how
old she is. Or just
in general. I think
just how hot she is. Did we mention
her age? Let's have a listen.
The icon who turns
50 this year.
50.
Yeah, I ain't mad. I know. We're not mad
either. She is the hottest
50 year old ever. Well, she will be. 49 actually. She know. We're not mad either. She is the hottest 50-year-old ever.
Well, she will be.
49, actually.
She's 49 at the moment.
Yeah.
But goddamn, she is attractive.
Do you reckon she wants to be 50 so that people can go,
damn, you're a hot 50?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Probably.
Like, if I'm looking that good, I don't care that I'm turning 50.
You know how you see bikini models and stuff
and it's unrealistic body standards for people
like when I see pictures of Sean Johnson with his shirt off and stuff.
Good rig.
Yeah, but unrealistic, really.
Am I going to achieve that? No.
Because he's a professional.
He's a professional, good-looking person.
Do you think it's unrealistic beauty goals for the 50 plus so i've got a theory
i believe people like j-lo share i mean she is a hot hot tamale she's 70 something yeah she said no
she's 70 something yeah i'm just saying yeah she's looking bloody good she's in a different category
to jlo though still hot yeah she's 70. she's been a different category to J-Lo though. Still hot. Yeah. She's 70.
She has been chemically frozen in time though.
I believe.
Yeah.
They've actually found. In life after love.
That was good.
Sorry, thank you.
I believe they've actually found something.
Yeah.
And they are rich enough to pay for it.
The fountain of youth.
Yes.
I think that they've found it somewhere deep in the Amazon.
It's a cream or a drink or an elixir of some form. Or a flower. It fountain of youth. Yes. I think that they've found it somewhere deep in the Amazon. It's a cream or a drink
or an elixir of some form. Or a flower.
It's not stupid. There might be some sort of
cell cellular treatment.
But wouldn't you just make it available to everyone?
Wouldn't you just go, I can make a lot of money out of
this? That's true. It's true.
But I mean, eventually, maybe.
Yeah. But I just think that, what's
their secret? Why do they look so good?
Why does J-Lo look so good?
J-Lo is 49 and she looks like she's 30.
49, by the way, 49, not that old.
Not old.
No.
But she doesn't look 49.
No.
She does not look, no.
Do you know anyone in your life where you're like,
oh God, they look good for their age?
Personally?
Yeah.
My wife looks a lot younger than she is.
I won't say her age because I know nobody likes that.
Yeah, she looks young.
She looks a good 10 years younger than her.
But I see, I said, that's unfair that you look like this.
She goes, it's not unfair.
This is a dedicated skin routine.
I was going to say.
It's looking after myself and it's not getting sunburned
and it's not getting boozed every weekend.
And I go, well, you've got a point there.
I was hoping you were about to say one thing that I actually do.
No.
None of those things.
No.
Other than that, people I don't know.
I do not mind.
I do not mind.
I know who you like.
Nigella.
Nigella Lawson.
God, she looks good.
How good is MasterChef when she comes on for a couple of weeks?
She's so hot.
I know, right?
Nigella. Who is it for you when she comes on for a couple of weeks? She's so hot. I know, right? Nigella.
Who is it for you?
Oh, there's a few.
I mean, George Clooney is the classic.
Yep.
He looks amazing.
Yes, he does.
But I think men age.
Pharrell?
Pharrell looks awesome.
I mean, how old is he?
Pharrell's same as J-Lo.
They've stopped aging.
And not in the sheer way.
In the way that they hit 25 and then their body goes, oh, I'm going to look like this now.
I think I like how I look now.
Will Smith.
Gravity went, we'll leave you guys alone.
You guys have done enough.
Yeah, Will Smith, yeah.
He's in his 50s.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He looks good.
Sandra Bullock.
Okay.
She looks incredible.
She's 54.
Is she?
Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
Jennifer Aniston. Yeah. She took a she? Yeah. Yeah, okay. Jennifer Aniston.
Yep.
She took a little...
No, yep, yep.
She had a little bit of work done.
Yeah.
But still looks awesome.
And all the rest of the Friends cast,
Matt LeBlanc.
Oh, Chandler.

Who's the hot old person?
Oh, sure, okay.
I want to ask the people.
Yeah. Who's the older... H? Oh, sure. Okay. I want to ask the people. Yeah.
Who's the older?
Hottest.
Person.
Okay.
For you.
Do we all have to know who they are?
They got to be famous?
They got to be famous.
Okay.
But they can be like semi-famous.
Sure.
They can be, you know, D-list celebrity.
What counts as semi-famous?
I mean.
Like television famous?
Yeah, that's fine. Or like where everybody gets their lunch around your work famous? Okay, that's fine.
Or like where everybody gets their lunch around your work famous?
Okay, that's not famous.

Yeah, who's the hot oldie?
Who's the hot older person?
Because we're talking about J-Lo yesterday.
She's about to turn 50 soon.
Yeah.
She's leading the charge for that generation.
Damn.
I don't know what creams or whatever she's using, but look out.
It'll be expensive, whatever it is.
Yeah.
We're being inundated with messages from people telling us who the hotter,
older person in their life is.
There's so many texts on the text machine.
Quite a lot of texts for someone quite close to the show too.
I thought we could breeze past that.
We said they have to be famous.
And quite a few messages have come in about your dad, Big Steve,
including one that said he's locally famous in the hearts and minds of New Zealand women.
Can we drop this My Dad's Hot Chat?
How old is he?
He's 60.
60, yeah.
Him and Jayla would make a great couple.
If you haven't seen a picture of my dad, he kind of looks like Tom Selleck,
who also, hot oldie.
Hot oldie.
Kitty, who's the hot old person?
Oh, hang on.
Wait on, Kitty.

He's a bit all right.
Have you seen him in John Wick?
Oh, no, I haven't.
He looks good.

Do we know?
I think he's 55.

I think so.
Yeah, possibly.

and I was just assuming she might be, okay?
Hi, Geordie.
Or is it Geordie?
It's just Geordie.
Who's the hot older person that does it for you, Geordie?
It's either Jude Law or Robert Downey Jr.
Both attractive.
Iron Man or...
So Jude Law, 43.
Yeah.
Oh, 45, sorry.
45, yeah.
And Robert Downey Jr.
How old are you, Geordie?
53.
I'm 20.
Okay, so 45 is quite old for you then.
If you could take your pick out of the two, who would it be?
I think Jude Law because he's tall. She really thought for you then. If you could take your pick out of the two, who would it be? I think Jude Law because he's tall.
She really thought about it then, didn't she?
Jude Law is not tall.
Is he not tall?
He's taller than me.
Okay.
That's right.
Good work.
That's all that counts.

Hi.
Who's the hot older person that does it for you, Hannah?
Martin Cummins.
Who?
He's like Sheriff Keller off Riverdale.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
You've gone slightly smaller,
but that might mean you've got a better chance with him.
So not a problem.
Fantastic.
Last one, we're going to go to Joe.
Hey, Joe.
Hi, Joe.
Hi.
Who does it for you that's older, Joe?
Controversial opinion.
Mike McRoberts from the news.
Oh, not a controversial opinion.
That is not controversial.
I saw him.
Ten out of ten.
Total delf.
We'll go there. Ten out of ten. total delf. We'll go there, definitely.
Ten out of ten, rock solid delf.
Joe, can I say, I saw him at the Breakers game a couple of weeks ago.
Did you?
Did you touch his abs?
Oh, I tried to touch his tush, but security intercepted me.
Joe Ambry, you cannot touch anyone,
let alone leading news anchor Mike McRoberts' abs without permission, okay?
What about if I have permission?
If you have permission, go for gold.
I think he's single.
Is he single?
I think he might be.
I don't want to speak for Mike.
Listen to Joe perk up.
Is he?
Yeah.
Joe, you don't know which way he swings.
No one knows which way he swings.
Yeah, who knows?
I mean, I could change his mind, I guess.
I don't know.
Yeah.
TV3 are a progressive broadcaster
and with progressive talent,
so there's no reason why you couldn't...
We talked to Joe.
I'm crossing the line from Mike's room.
For the record, Joe,
Mike McRoberts, we've just Googled it,
is 52 years old.
Damn.
Oh, really?
I just imagined my dad.
I don't know if that's true.
Oh, that makes it weird.
It's okay.
I just want to watch it.
Yeah, you're okay, Joe.
Have a good weekend, man.
Maybe they can hang out, like Joe's dad and Mike and...
Yeah.
Catch a game together.
Talk about their kids.

Okay, Nicola, you were 16 in 2002 on the 28th of December,
and top of the charts on that day was this. You get the ketchup song.
How do you feel about that?
Not too bad, actually.
I remember a few parties with that.
Okay.
Where you were not drinking alcohol?
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not. Not without expert supervision.
One more birthday banger.
Hi, Dan.
Hi, Dan.
Hey, how's it going?
Good, thanks.
What's your birthday, Dan?
22nd of May, 1986.
Oh, another 86th birthday.
You were 16 in 2002 on the 22nd of May,
and this is your birthday banger.
Beautiful R&B jam.
I do love me a bit of R&B.
I remember the song very well.
A shanty, yeah.
It's a tune, Dan.
It's called Foolish.
Do you like that?
It is a great song.
What would you pick, Dan?
Oh, I'm a bit of a sucker for a wham.
I'm a bit of a sucker for a wham, too.
Who doesn't love whams?
Interestingly, the CEO of the company has just waltzed into the booth as well.
Hey, Boxy!
Generally, we get in a little bit of trouble if we play a song from the 1980s,
but it has been done before.
Mr. Bogs, do we have permission from you to play... Thumbs up or thumbs down from Bogsy?
A bit of wham this afternoon.
It's a big thumbs up from Bogsy.
It's a big thumbs up.
Here we go.
This is the birthday banger for whose was it?
This is for Shaz.
Sorry, I cut you off, Shaz.
This is for you, Shaz.
Hopefully you're enjoying this in the car.
Bree and Clint, ZM, this is birthday banger.
ZM, Bree and Clint, that is a perfect, perfect birthday banger for a Friday.
For Shaz.
Wham!
Wham!
Wham!
George Michael's old band.
It's called Wait Me Up.
Shaz, what a legend.
Yeah, I'm so sorry I hang up on you, Shaz.
That was my fat fingers.
I pushed two buttons at once, but hopefully you enjoyed that
while you were sitting in your crappy Auckland traffic
heading to the Tron for a weekend.
She was a legend.
She was great.
Do a deep dive this weekend.
You know how much I love this song?
I don't know, tell me.
Oh God, another impersonation.
Okay.
We have a chance this afternoon, because it is a fill-up Friday,
to win some free fuel thanks to Mobile, show sponsor.
Thank you, Mobile.
We love those guys.
We're going to give them away, but to win it this afternoon, you need to unlock something.
You need to figure out the question we're about to ask.
So for that reason, the lines are currently blocked.
Yeah, you need to work for it this afternoon, and you need to have the information we're about to give you
before you start calling 0800-DALS-AT-M.
We'll unblock them once we put the question out there.
So the question is, there's this ad that's been launched back home in Aussie for me
and it's for something that's happening in Australia.
It's for a product or a thing or whatever it is.
But you and I both thought it was a bit weird.
It's very weird.
If you listen to what they're saying, you'll go,
hang on, you can't say that on the TV.
And you also can't tell what it's for if you can't see the television.
You know what I mean?
Which is where it makes it great for radio.
Exactly right.
So if you can see it, it's a lot more understandable.
Let's play it.
Okay.
Let's play it.
This is the first half of the ad with the end cut off
because at the very last minute they explain what it is.
Gives it away.
See if you can figure out what this ad.
Screening on Australian television right now.
Not late at night.
Not on an R18 channel.
All hours of the day.
This is it.
Listen carefully.
Hold on.
I'm coming.
Hold on. I'm coming. Hold on.
I'm coming.
Hold on.
I'm coming.
Hold on.
I'm coming.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Did they say what we think they said?
Let me just isolate. Wait, wait, wait, said? Let me just isolate one of those parts.
What'd they say?
Hold on, I'm coming.
Yep.
Yeah, they're saying what we think they're saying.
That is literally the first half, nearly three quarters of the whole ad
until they get to the point of what they're talking about.
Very hard to tell.
Producer Ellie, unblock the phone lines.
The question for you, New Zealand,
is what are they promoting with that ad right there?
First person to get through on 0800DIALZM with the right answer
will win free fuel thanks to mobile.
Let's go to Hayden.
Hayden, what is that ad for?
Sorry, Hayden.
For a sports tournament.
It's for a what, sorry?
Like a sports tournament, like a World Cup or something.
It needs to be more specific.
A bit more specific, right.
I'm going to say cricket because they love cricket.
Jesus Christ, how do we get this on the first person?
This game was very, very easy.
Oh, is that right?
Yeah.
Promoting the Aussie cricket season.
Hayden, I mean, congratulations.
We're all very happy for you.
No, we're happy for you.
Thanks, mate.
Was that a guess, though, Hayden?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure New Zealand's had an ad,
not to that extent, but similar.
We wouldn't do that.
We're better than that.
This is the rest of the ad.
Hold on.
I'm coming.
The cricket is coming to seven.
Live, free.
And for everyone.
You get the idea.
Hey, well done, Hayden.
Nice work, Hayden.
Well done.
Well, thanks, mate.
They wanted to go with the cheaters are coming, but they couldn't.
Didn't sound as catchy.
All right.
Hey, Hayden, hold on.
I'm coming to your house with free mobile fuel.
Nice work, Haydes.
Interesting thing happened to me yesterday.
My car is currently in getting a service.
I was actually a part of this. I was
here when you got the phone call
about this. I got a phone call yesterday morning
and it's pretty standard. They're like, oh, car's fine.
Needs this, this and this.
Your starter motor is a bit shot.
How much is a service?
Can I ask? Getting up there.
Pretty expensive. I don't have a flash car.
I've got like a Honda Accord.
And even to service a Honda Accord.
Station wagon.
All right.
No kids.
Just a responsible vehicle for a responsible person.
Just the wagon.
It's a swaggy wagon though.
It's a swagon.
About 450 bucks.
Whoa.
Not cheap.
Not cheap.
For a Honda Accord.
Yeah, it's not like it's a BMW or...
No, I'm well aware of that.
They called me and they said,
oh, car's fine.
It does need a new starter motor soon.
But that's $500.
I was like, oh, we'll put that off until we do.
We'll just wait.
And I was like, fine, go ahead, do the rest of it.
I'll pick it up tomorrow.
Then, while we were doing the show, I get another call from them.
And I had to screen it because we were busy on air.
And then I got a text and it said, Clint, can you please call us?
Urgent.
Urgently.
And I was like, what the hell is this?
You know what my mind went to?
What have they found in my car?
Drugs.
Okay.
No.
No.
Subscription drugs.
Do you mean prescription?
Oh, prescription.
That's just me.
I've got a subscription.
No, so I rang them back and the lady goes,
and you heard her.
I put it on speaker.
She was so panicked.
She was real like, I could tell something was up.
She's like, hey, so
your car, we
obviously, it was in the service
bay and we've got another vehicle
in at the moment and
well, basically
the brakes failed on that vehicle
and it's lurched forwards
and
it's crashed into your car.
So your car goes in for a service.
Now it needs to go to the panel beater.
I gave them my car to fix it and they broke it.
What a weird situation to be in.
You were really kind of like, what?
Yeah, but at the same time, I don't really care.
Yeah.
When it comes to cars.
Accidents happen.
Again, if I had a flash car or like a rare car, then maybe.
But I've got a Honda Accord.
Like if they called up and they were like,
someone had an accident inside the car.
Yeah, that'd be different.
You know, that's devastating.
You can't get that smell out.
That's the thing.
No, it doesn't come out of the leather.
So I was quite relaxed about it.
I was like, oh, that's fine.
I've got a loan car.
Just fix it.
You're going to fix it, right?
And they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
She was super apologetic.
I did say to her, did the car crash into the starter motor by any chance?
And break the starter motor?
Just to be cheeky in case she'd go, yes, it did.
And if that's what it would take to keep you happy, sir,
we'll replace that for free.
That didn't come.
And I was like, oh, whatever, fix the car, get back to me soon.
You hung up the phone.
Yeah.
And I said to you straight away, well, that service is for free.
They didn't say that it's for free.
They didn't say that, but I said to you, surely that is for free.
Your car's gone in for a service.
Yeah.
They've now done the service and then smashed into your car.
Now you don't have your car for how long?
At least a week.
At least a week, maybe more.
Yeah.
I said they got to give you that service for free.
You said to me, ring up, throw your toys,
tell them you're pissed off, that it's a huge inconvenience
and that you want at least the service for free.
But that's just not in my nature.
That's not, I'm not that guy.
I'm not the complain about.
Neither am I.
I'm not a speak up
and demand better service
type of guy
neither
I'm the person that goes
yeah that's fine
oh what
so you're happy for me to do it
no
Ross Boss told you
to throw your toys
and do that
I just said
I would expect it
if I went back in there
to pay for it
I'd expect it to be for free
I haven't paid for it yet
it might be free
but I don't think
I'm going to call up
and demand it I couldn't call for it yet. It might be free, but I don't think I'm going to call up and demand it. I couldn't call up.
No.
I couldn't call up and ask.
But maybe I should.
Maybe that's the thing
I should do.
Yeah.
So what I want to ask
this afternoon
on 0800DALZM,
have you done it?
Like,
have you completely
thrown your toys
about something,
had a tanty,
and what did you get from it?
What did you get
out of complaining?
Yeah.
0800DALZM, because this could convince me to do it.
Inspiration for you Clint. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Are you a real speak
to the manager type person? Yeah.
0800 dial ZM 9696 if you want
to text us as well. What did you get
out of complaining? Let us know.
Also, what should Clint do? Yeah.
I want your opinion. Also, how good
is a Honda Accord?
Bree and Clint on Z Yeah. I want your opinion. Also, how good's a Honda Accord? Interesting situation.
Took my car in for a service
and the place that services my car
crashed my car.
So now it's going off to the panel beaters.
They're fixing the car for free.
Bree thinks,
and so does Ross Boss,
that I should
throw a bit of a tantrum.
I just think they should give the service to you for free.
Yeah.
I don't think anything else.
Like, I don't think they should, you know.
I don't think anyone's going to do that if I don't kick up a fuss.
Right.
But like I've said, it's not in my nature to do that.
Yeah, I find it so awkward.
Yeah.
Like, if my meal is really bad at the restaurant.
You won't send it back.
And they'll come over and they'll go, how is it?
And I'll go, it's great.
So good.
I love it.
It was $30.
I'm so happy.
So we want to know, maybe I should though, do you complain?
And what have you got out of it?
Rebecca, hi.
Hi, Ben.
Hi.
I am the world's biggest complainer.
Yeah, all right.
Oh, God.
What's the best thing you've got?
I could very easily bring your mechanic for you, Clint, if you wanted me to.
Oh, my God, that would be great.
Rebecca, does it matter that they are my mechanic?
Like, I go there all the time.
I quite like them.
Well, how long have you been going there?
Four years.
Yeah, well, exactly.
Then they should understand that you're a loyal customer.
I agree. That is very good reverse logic. Yeah, I, exactly. Then they should understand that you're a loyal customer. I agree.
That is very good reverse logic.
Yeah, I like that.
You know, I've complained once a month,
once a week for the last four months
to the telecommunications company.
Yeah, yeah.
Don't name them.
Through the whole Consumer Guarantees Act, I think.
Oh, you know your rights.
You're one of these complainers who comes forearmed.
Oh, I know my rights.
I'm trying to leave my job at the moment.
I know my rights.
What should I get?
I'm scared just talking to you.
What do I get out of this, Rebecca?
Do I just get the service for free,
or do they give me that free starter motor
that it needs as well?
Well, they should at least give you half price
on the starter motor.
Okay.
Oh, so I like Bex's train of thought.
It's a good take.
Hi, Stevie. Are you a serial complain of thought. That's a good take. Hi Stevie, are you a cereal
complainer? Not so
much a cereal one, only when it's
quite necessary. What did you get?
Well, I
went to a certain fast food burger
place and ordered about
I think it was about $40-$50 worth
of food for me and my family.
My sister
opened her burger up to take the pickles out
and there was a bite mark out of her patty.
Oh, no, see, I'd complain about that.
You're kidding me.
Stevie.
So I rung them up straight away,
took a photo of it for proof and whatnot,
left it.
They gave me a full refund for my meal
and gave me vouchers for the same value of the meal.
Yeah, that's the least they can do.
And did they say, please, please, please don't put this on Facebook?
I wouldn't go too far as shaming the place out.
Everybody makes mistakes.
Well, that's not a mistake.
That's a hug.
Yeah, I know.
Because you love the fast food place, right?
See, he's being reasonable about it. Yeah. It's not a hostile. And that a hug. Yeah, I know. Because you love the fast food place, right? Yeah. See, he's being reasonable about it.
Yeah.
It's not a hostile.
And that's what I'm saying to you.
I think it's reasonable for them to give you the service for free.
This is a call I'm keen to take.
David, you're a mechanic.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's right.
So you have some advice for me for what I should do in this situation.
If you're just joining us, put my car in for a service,
and they've crashed my car while it's being serviced,
what should I do?
Well, first of all, that happens more often than you would actually think.
I'm sure it does.
That's the thing.
How come, David?
How come?
Well, what was the case here?
I think they said the brakes on the other vehicle failed, eh?
Yeah, there was a drag racing car in there,
and someone touched the accelerator,
and it's lurched forwards,
and it's gone prang into the side of my car. Basically would have
chopped the cord in half, would it?
Well, this is the other thing, David.
I haven't seen my car. It's
gone straight. I went in there this morning. They didn't
have any photos of mine. They
had photos of the damaged drag car. Look, they're probably doing you
a favour because it's a wagon.
I reckon.
I reckon. I mean, yeah, I get it.
It's a huge inconvenience and all that.
But I reckon at the end of the day,
you're actually probably going to get a sweet deal out of it because
you know,
it's at the body shop at the moment. They'll look after it and
they'll, you know, make sure it'll come back
in a good state. So being a
Honda Accord, you know, being
a couple of years old, it would have obviously had a couple
of marks on it. So it should be all right. I mean, I wouldn't ask for a free service, but you've got a loan
card, do you?
Yeah, I've got a loan card. Nice Honda Jazz.
Yeah, I reckon they won't charge you for the loan because obviously they need to keep you
able to drive around and stuff and get to work.
If they charge you for the loan car, let me call them.
One more. Kit, what do you think?
Yeah, absolutely complain.
I would say that even being British and we don't complain very often,
I would still absolutely complain and get something free out of that.
Yeah.
Okay.
I still feel uncomfortable.
Ask for the Honda Jazz that you're driving at the moment.
No, I don't want that car.
No, you can get that car for free.
I don't want the Honda Jazz.
Any texts on the topic?
There's one text that I want to read out,
and it's from someone who says she works in a service area,
so she works in a place like the one you've taken it to.
And she said that you have no idea how often this happens,
just like David said.
And she said that often customers literally throw tantrums
and demand a whole new car.
I'm not going to do that.
But she said from her experience at the other end,
if you complain, the service will be for free.
Right.
Well, we'll just wait and see.
So get Beck back on the phone.
Let's call them.
Let's call them.
Look, I'll keep you updated, all right?
If I get the car back and it's driving sideways,
then maybe I'll complain, you know?
Can you see if you can get a free puppy?
Oh, yeah, cool. They've got free puppies.
Cool. In studio with us next.
Her name is CharlieXCX.
She is opening for Taylor Swift tonight
and she's in with us straight after this. Brian Clint,
ZM. The big Taylor
Swift gig is tonight
and we are very lucky to be joined in studio this afternoon by Charlie XCX.
Hello.
Brian Clint.
Hello.
Welcome to New Zealand.
Thank you.
It's great to have you here.
It's nice to be here.
How are you?
Yeah, we're good.
We're good.
You know you're a big deal when you've got people like Charlie XCX on the tour with you.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, I confirmed that Taylor Swift is a big deal.
Yeah, you did.
So she is.
She is a big deal.
Okay, good.
Just checking.
You got her that blue tick, I think.
I did.
Yeah, yeah.
You're welcome, Taylor.
What a behemoth of a show.
Oh, that's a new word for me.
Gigantic.
Behemoth.
Big beast of a tour, yeah.
Never heard that.
It's going absolutely bunta.
There's a word for you.
It's going crazy. Bunta? Bunta. Is's going absolutely bunter. There's a word for you. It's going crazy.
Bunter?
Bunter.
Is that a New Zealand thing?
That's an Aussie thing.
Oh, it's an Aussie thing.
Yeah, I'm an Aussie.
What does bunter mean?
It means it's going absolutely crazy.
It's going bunter.
Going bunter.
I'm really glad you asked what that means too.
Clint doesn't know either.
Should I say that on stage?
No.
Not here.
Not here.
That would be bad. No. They'll go, what's wrong with Charli XCX I say that on stage? No. Not here. Not here. That would be bad.
No.
They'll go, what's wrong with Charli XCX?
Does she just swear?
Right.
Okay.
It's not a thing.
No.
Okay.
Good to know.
Set you up for disaster.
We want to play a couple of games with you.
Are you up for that?
I'm so up for games.
Yeah.
We do a game called the Insta Fame Game.
Tell me about it.
Usually you would be a part of this game.
I think you have been a part of this game before.
She has been, yeah.
We're just guessing people's Instagram following.
Does that make sense?
Like the number?
Like the number.
Oh, fun, yeah.
Yeah, okay.
I'm really bad at it.
Clint's good at it, so.
Let's bring producer Ellie in here.
She's going to referee the match for us.
Oh my God.
I heard she bought all her followers.
She would.
She's such a bitch.
It's time for Brie and Clint's Insta-fame game.
Producer Ellie, good afternoon.
Good afternoon.
Now, you have a list of Instagram celebrities.
You can confirm none of us have seen the number.
None of you.
Can you please keep them secret?
Clint cheats.
Oh, I don't like cheaters.
I don't cheat.
I'm just particularly good at the game.
Okay.
We all have a pen and we all have a piece of paper.
Okay.
We've got 10 seconds per celebrity to guess their following,
and it's first to three points.
Okay?
So hold on.
Am I yelling it out?
No, write it down,
and then we're all going to show the paper to producer Ellie.
Right, got it.
Okay?
Ellie, are you ready?
I'm ready.
Bree, are you ready?
Not really, but...
Charlie XX, are you ready?
I want to win.
Okay, here we go.
Ellie, when you're ready, give us our first celebrity.
All right.
Charlie XX, you've just done a big collab with this guy, Troy Sivan.
Oh, I love him.
He's played this game too.
He's played this game.
Yeah, he is.
Charlie's answered very fast.
I'm going confident as well.
I'm confident.
All right.
For Troy Sivan, Brie, you've said 8.3 million.
Clint, you've said 14 million.
You've gone big, Clint.
Yeah.
It's Troye Sivan.
True.
Charli XCX, you've gone 9.6 million.
Troye Sivan has 9.3 million.
That's a point to Troye XCX.
Oh, good.
I'm stalking his Instagram a lot at the moment.
You must have Google Alerts out on him.
I'm like, Troye, promote the singles.
Come on, Troye. And I say, I'm fizzing I love it. You must have Google Alerts out on him. I'm like, Troy, promote the singles. Come on, Troy.
And I say, I'm fizzing for that single.
Oh, thank you.
1999.
Holy hell, that is a banger.
Fizzing.
You're really giving me all these great words.
You do a very good Steve Jobs, by the way.
A very weirdly good Steve Jobs.
Thank you.
It was my favourite part of the video, so thank you.
Okay, Ellie, give us another one.
All right, your next one.
Just been on tour, Taylor Swift.
Taylor Swift.
How many Instagram followers for Taylor Swift?
No.
She's been the biggest in the world at one stage, hasn't she?
What?
Has she?
Oh, no, I've went way too small.
All right, Brie, for Taylor Swift, you said 43 million.
Clint, you've said 120 million.
Charlie XX, you've said 121.1 million.
Oh, we are so close.
Oh, wow. Taylor1.1 million. Oh, we are so close. Oh, wow.
Taylor Swift
has 112 million,
which means Clint
takes that point.
There we go.
My pen leaked.
Oh, no.
That's not a reason
for losing a point,
by the way.
No, it distracted me, though.
Okay, first to three.
One to me,
one to Charlie.
When you've got another one,
Ellie, hit us with it.
What about my score?
Zero.
Okay.
Stone cold nothing.
Okay.
Not going bunta. Next celebrity, hit us with it. Zero. Okay. Stone cold nothing. Not going bunta.
Next celebrity, Camila Cabello.
Gosh, she's really famous and she was in a girl band.
But how many Instagram followers does she have?
Come on, I need a point.
I need to get back in this.
Hold on, hold on.
Oh, quick.
All right.
Okay, I did it.
Nice.
Okay, Brie, you've said 18 million for Camila Cabello.
Clint, you've said 20 million.
Charlie XX, you've said 86 million.
Oh, that's big.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
Camila Cabello has 26.5 million.
No, no.
Point to Clint.
Is that another point to me?
Thank you.
I know you want to win this game too.
I'm so competitive with the games.
I don't feel right beating our guest.
Okay, come on.
I want to win fair and square.
Don't be a little bitch about it.
Come on.
Let's go.
Zero points.
Okay.
Me, two.
Charlie, one.
Bree, nothing.
Ellie, hit us with another celebrity from Instagram.
All right.
Clint could win it here, but your next celebrity is CharlieXCX.
Oh, oh, oh.
Boom.
That's a cheat.
That's cheating. My photographer
just told me in the car. Really?
Yeah. Great timing.
Really? Oh, God.
This is a loaded question too because you don't want
to guess insultingly low and you
don't want to guess patronisingly large either.
I mean, you guys have...
25 million? Are you joking?
You've got some big bangers. I'll take that. I mean... That's a compliment. I'm big. $25 million? Are you joking? You had some big bangers.
I'll take that.
I mean, I'm right.
I'm right.
So, Bray, you got $25 million for Charlie XX.
I'm still confident.
Clint, you've got $10 million.
Yeah.
Charlie XX, you've got $3.1 million.
And Charlie XX has 3.1 million followers.
Oh, how did she get that?
Why don't we just look at her paper?
I know.
Well, she was holding it kind of.
Yeah.
I did try and have a look.
Oh, this is a tiebreaker between you and Charlie.
Yeah, we're at tiebreak.
You can still come from behind.
I can still come back.
You've got to win.
You're not going to.
No, sorry.
Three games in a row.
She's done it before.
Oh, really?
Okay.
All right.
Sorry.
I didn't want to be cocky.
Let's go.
This is between you and me, Charlie.
Yeah, I'm ready. I'm ready. Have you got this? No, you need to say what we say to all All right. Sorry. I didn't want to be cocky. Let's go. This is between you and me, Charlie. Look me in the eye.
Yeah, I'm ready.
I'm ready.
Have you got this?
No, you need to say what we say to all our guests.
Oh.
You say this.
I find it kind of rude.
Charlie.
Go on.
Run at me.
Run at me.
Okay.
Do I have to do that?
Just metaphorically.
I'll just metaphorically do it.
Okay, let's go.
I'm ready.
I want to win.
Let's go.
All right. This is Tybur. Bree, take this point. It'll be metaphorically do it. Okay, let's go. I'm ready. I want to win. Let's go.
This is time.
Brie, take this point.
It'll be great.
I know.
Okay.
So we know you love this girl.
We know you're friends with this girl.
Dua Lipa.
Oh, I know it.
I know it because I DM'd her today.
Come on.
Her name is Electricity.
What is it?
Don't show Clint.
Don't show Clint. I know it.
I hope I get it.
All right. For Dua Lipa, Br. I hope I get it. All right.
For Dua Lipa, Brie, you've said 9.1 million.
Clint, you have said 40 million.
Charli XCX, you have said 21.1 million.
Dua Lipa has 21.1 million.
Game to Charli XCX.
She did a post about it.
I liked that post.
I'm so glad Clint didn't win.
Do you have a photographic memory?
Because you guessed it down to the decimal place. I know. I liked that post. I'm so glad Clint didn't win. Do you have a photographic memory? Because you guessed it
down to the decimal place.
I know.
I know.
I know things.
That's incredible.
Well done.
Very well done.
What were you messaging
Dua Lipa about, by the way?
She was in the studio
with one of my friends.
I was like, hey,
I recognise that man bun.
There you go.
And she was like, yeah.
One more thing we want to do
with you before you go.
You've just released 1999.
We have a game on this show called Birthday Banger.
Yeah, we take people's birthdays and then we tell them what song was top in the charts
on their 16th birthday.
Then we all reminisce.
Fun.
So we're going to figure out yours.
Yeah.
Okay.
We'll just play 1999 right now.
Because it's an absolute tune.
Okay.
And then we'll take another trip back in time straight after this with CharlieXCX and we'll
find out what your birthday banger is.
Bree and Clint.
ZM.
That's brand new CharlieXCX on ZM with Bree and Clint.
That's 1999 with Choice of Un.
What a tune.
What a video, by the way.
Thank you.
Do you love a fun video?
I do love a fun video.
What's been the most fun video you've done?
I mean, definitely the boys on 1999,
just because, I mean, 1999 I got to dress up as Steve Jobs.
And you nailed it, by the way.
Thank you.
Very good.
And in boys, I didn't have to be in it at all.
I just stood behind the camera shouting at hot boys.
Fancy would have been a lot of fun too.
Fancy was fun, but it was also quite stressful.
Was it?
Just because that was like my first really big music video.
And did you expect it to go so big?
Like it was ridiculous.
I mean, no, I didn't, but I thought it was very good.
Okay.
What are your thoughts on the Clueless remake?
I didn't know that there was one.
Who's in it?
That hasn't been announced yet, but it's a remake.
It's not a sequel.
I mean, it's such an iconic movie.
It's hard to remake the iconic moments.
Well, you've already kind of done it.
Would you be up for being in it?
I'm, no.
I just can't act.
I just can't act.
Plus the trolling you would get from OG Clueless Beans.
I know.
Who would you be in the film, though, if you were to be in it?
Well, in the music video, I was Ty, Brittany Murphy's character.
Yeah.
So I guessed that.
I don't know.
But I mean, she's a great character.
But I just can't act.
I can't act.
We just grab that soundbite and just upload it.
So you want to play Ty in the, is that what we're going with?
Exclusive.
You had it here first.
Let's find out what your birthday banger is, shall we?
Yeah, I'm so excited.
So super popular thing we do on our show, people call in,
they give us their birthdays and then we actually figure out
what was top of the charts on their 16th birthday.
And we do it usually for New Zealand,
but we thought we'd give you all of yours in different countries.
I love that.
And then you get to pick your favourite one that we play in full.
Love it.
This is what we need.
Charlie XCX, what is your birthday?
It's August 2nd, 1992.
Oh, funny.
We already knew that.
You were 16 in 2008 on the 2nd of August,
and top of the charts in the UK was this.
Calvin and Dizzy.
I've got a weird feeling she likes this one.
I like it.
Good one.
Would you ever do a collab with Dizzy?
I think I really liked his album Boy in the Corner.
Yes.
So then, yes.
That era Dizzy Rascal.
Yes.
Cool.
Cool.
So he's in a time machine and that's about it.
That's all right.
We can figure that out.
Cool.
All right.
So that was number one in the UK.
In 2008, on the 2nd of August, in the USA, Australia and Canada.
Oh, it was a global hit.
It was a global hit.
This was number one. I kissed a girl and I liked it The taste of her cherry chapstick
I'm surprised that wasn't number one in the UK as well.
Went bunter.
There's that word again.
Bunter.
Oh, God.
Let's get Charlie.
You should say, that was going bunter.
That was going bunter.
See?
Sounds so much classier when you say it.
Does it?
Sounds a lot fancier.
Okay, I'll take that.
That's a tune.
What about in Germany, this was your birthday banger?
Wait, is this Kid Rock?
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
You a Kid Rock fan?
No.
I mean, who isn't?
I mean, yeah, no.
The Germans are.
They love Kid Rock.
It's Kid Rock and David Heseloff.
It's really funny because this is such an American song.
Isn't it?
It is, yeah.
Your last one.
So in 2008, on the 2nd of August, your 16th birthday in New Zealand,
this was top of the chart.
I want this one.
This is the one.
I thought you were Going to say that
Controversial
Controversial
Now it was a novelty track
Did they have the
Cadbury ad in the UK?
Yeah yeah
Huge advert
Great advert
That advert sent the song
Back to number one
In New Zealand
The power of the sink
The power of chocolate
Love it
I mean this is great
This is an iconic song
Well this song
Actually very recently
Was spun up in
Birthday Banger
And it got played and it kind
of tore the radio station apart a little bit.
Why? I think it's a banger.
I voted for Anastasia
which I'm out of love. I mean
that's a great song. What a tune.
Is it as good as Phil Collins?
Which, that part of the song. No, it's not.
That part of the song. It's not. You're absolutely right.
I did a dance routine to Anastasia
when I was in like year six or whatever.
On stage at school.
It was really embarrassing.
But this is about us.
And this is an iconic song.
Do you know how the song goes from start to finish though?
It's very slow.
Yeah, but it's the build up.
Drum solo.
I feel like we're about to get into a fight.
And then all of a sudden.
John!
You just need to say the word
you will not be overruled
which of your birthday
bangers are we playing
in the air tonight
that's it
damn it
that's it
you can see her
live tonight
start to finish
at Mount Smart
not play the full
eight minutes
no radio edit
supporting Taylor Swift
along with Broods
Charlie XCX thanks thanks for coming in.
Thank you for having me.
Brie and Clint.
ZM.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
It's time to talk about Australia.
This is your national anthem, I think.
That's bloody slim dusty.
It is.
Listen to you.
I love how quickly you can slip back into being full Aussie.
I love a bit of slim.
You just taught Charlie XCX the word bunta.
Go on, sing this bit I want to talk about
Your prime minister
Which one?
The current one
Who is that?
Do you know what his name is?
Look
I'm an Aussie
Yeah
I'm proud of my country
I love where I come from
Yeah
But let's be real
Our political system
Is an absolute shit fight.
You change prime ministers
more than you change your undies.
We must look so stupid
to the rest of the world.
Honestly,
you've got these amazing
things happening
over here in New Zealand.
Jacinda Ardern,
I mean,
she's incredible.
She's having babies
and she's running the country.
We can't even have
one prime minister for a year.
Don't worry,
we just had John Key
for 10 years
who invented
the three-way handshake.
True.
Ali will know.
Ali, do you know what the name
of the Australian Prime Minister is?
No.
No, she's not listening.
Okay.
She doesn't care.
What did you call him?
So his nickname is ScoMo.
ScoMo.
Because his name's Scott Morrison.
Scott Morrison.
Okay, that's it.
He's a white guy.
Yeah.
He's an old white guy.
Vintage Australian Prime Minister. Literally nearly every Prime Minister we have's a white guy. Yeah. He's an old white guy. Vintage Australian Prime Minister.
Literally nearly every Prime Minister we have, old white guy.
He's meant to be on a thing at the moment called the Queensland Bus Tour,
where he goes out and he shows the people of Australia that he's a man of the people.
Yeah, so he's trying to get fair income to show that he's a true Aussie bloke.
He's saying, I'm going to take the bus like you hardworking true blues do.
I'm going to get on my massive bus that's got heaps of signage on it.
Air conditioning.
Air conditioning.
A couple of toilets.
And we're going to get up and down the state of Queensland.
See what you guys are up to because I'm your Prime Minister.
Meet the people.
He's been busted because the bus is doing the bus tour.
It's going the full length.
He is taking a plane everywhere and meeting the bus
and each of it stops. And then he gets on
the bus to literally drive around
in the town. And get off the bus to go
oh man, I've just come off the bus like
you guys do. So like the leg from Brisbane
to Rockhampton, about 10 hours.
He's getting on a plane. He ain't on the bus.
This is a very awkward
interview he's done today with a
reporter who's asked him,
what's the bus for?
If you're not on the bus, what's the bus tour for?
So let's be clear.
The reporter's taking the piss.
Yeah.
He's trying to rile ScoMo, Scott Morrison, the Aussie Prime Minister up.
Yeah.
About how he's not taking the bus.
Take a listen to how he copes with it.
Prime Minister, you're on the bus tour.
Yeah.
Why are you flying? Well, the bus is going all listen to how he copes with it. Prime Minister, you're on the bus tour. Why are you flying?
Well, the bus is going all the way up
to Rocky. We'd always planned
to take that last leg up to Townsville
by plane because that was the
most effective way to get there and to spend the most
time there with people on the ground. I mean,
these visits aren't about sitting on a bus.
They're about actually engaging with
small businesses and our supporters and
the people of Queensland and listening to them.
So why not the bus?
Because it gets me from A to B.
Will you be taking the bus to Rockhampton from here?
Yes, the bus will be going to Rockhampton from here, that's right.
I've got to get there earlier than the bus tonight.
So you'll be flying to Rockhampton?
I'll get into Rockhampton tonight and I've got a program tonight in Rockhampton.
The bus can't get me there quick enough so I've got to fly.
I'm just interested in the point of the bus
if you're not on it. I am on it. I just got off it.
And when I
can get, when I can be on the bus
and go from place to place on the bus
that's great.
It's just a bit weird
that you've got a bus that is doing
the bus tour if you're going on the plane.
Like, it's fine if you want to take a plane.
I mean, we're paying for it as the taxpayers.
Well, not me.
The Australians are.
But just cancel the bus.
Just cancel the bus.
Stop trying to trick everyone.
Like, we get it.
You're the Prime Minister.
Hey, at least it's better than some of the other politicians in Aussie.
Why?
Some of them were taking a helicopter for a 20-minute trip
and then charging the Aussie taxpayer.
Yeah, traffic is a pain in the arse, though.
Yeah, no, true.
You know?
I mean, if I could do it, I would.
Oh, I'm not getting into politics to not take a helicopter.
You should see how Jacinda drops Niamh off at daycare.
She skydives in.
I've got an interesting question for you, Brie.
You know how you can legally change your gender these days?
Yes.
And you can legally change your name.
Yep.
Do you think you should legally be allowed to change your age?
My brain hurts thinking about it.
Let me talk you through it.
There's a man in the Netherlands by the name of Emile Rattlebund.
Fun to say.
He's 69 years old.
Nice age.
He's decided that he doesn't want to be 69 because it's limiting his ability to do things like get a mortgage.
It's limiting him with employers.
They say they don't want to employ a 69-year-old.
Right, people make jokes about...
People make jokes about your age.
69, dinner for two.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, Clint!
Lucky it's after sex.
Excuse me, if you didn't point it out,
no one would have noticed it.
And also, he's saying it's limiting him on Tinder.
He said that he could get
more matches if he was a 49 year old than if he was a 69 year old hate to break it to a meal but
uh you can easily lie on tinder not a big deal well that's a good point he doesn't want to lie
he's going to court to legally change his age he said he feels 20 years younger he believes he looks 20 years younger he
said he has the body of a 49 year old all right chill out emil so why shouldn't he be allowed to
be 49 it's an interesting question though isn't it but technically he's not 49 but he feels 49
yeah but if i feel like a pop plant does that mean i can be a pop plant no but if I feel like a pop plant, does that mean I can be a pop plant? No, but if you're born a woman and you feel like a man, you can be a man.
Yeah, oh God, my brain hurts.
Do you want to see him?
Yeah, I want to see him.
I want to make a judgment because I love to judge people.
I'm going to show you a picture of him.
This is him right now.
And you tell me how old you think he looks.
Okay.
Okay.
Says he's 69, feels 49.
Okay.
He looks 69
Oh nah
Yes he does
Nah
Hot 69 though
Mate if he came up
With my Tinder
And it said 49
I'd say bullshit
Well careful
If you've got your
Range set to the Netherlands
And your age range
Capped at 49
And Emil
Rattleband shows up
There's so many people
Right now going
Damn it!
I bought that!
Brie and Clint on ZM
Time to do a bit of good old fashioned Aussie bashing
You know?
I'm right here
I know and you've got a lot to answer for
For your people that is
What have we done now?
This weekend the All Blacks have arguably their biggest game of the year
Yeah you've been prepping for it.
Oh, God, I'm excited for this.
You've got your new jersey.
Got my new jersey.
That's too tight.
Yeah.
It would have fit last year.
Same size as my old one.
It looks like it's a player's jersey.
That'll be it.
Yeah, it's made for players.
That's the problem.
That's it.
That's the reason.
Sorry I don't look like Sonny Bill, okay?
They're playing England.
Now, England have an Australian coach.
His name's Eddie Jones.
He used to coach the Wallabies.
Why would England hire the ex-Wallabies coach?
Guess what, mate?
They were shit.
No.
When he coached them, they were good.
How good, though?
They won the World Cup.
Okay. Last time. That's pretty good. How good, though? They won the World Cup. Okay.
Last time.
That's pretty good.
Last time Australia.
When was that?
Last time.
2003.
No, 1999.
1999.
Is that the last time we won?
Yeah.
In the 90s?
Yeah.
But you've won it twice.
Anyway, we're going too deep into rugby chat.
That's not what it's about.
It's about Eddie Jones Who is the Australian Man
Who is coaching England
God he must be old
He is kind of old yeah
He coached Japan in between
God
We're really going down
A rugby wormhole
He gets around
Yeah
It's kind of like me
In radio stations
Yeah
You radio floozy
Someone has asked
Eddie Jones
In a press conference
Ahead of this weekend's
All Blacks match
what he thinks about the Hucker.
Oh, no.
Now.
What has the idiot said?
I'll just play you what he said, okay?
They said, Eddie, how are you guys going to respond to the Hucker
when the All Blacks do it ahead of the game?
At that stage of the game, they could be playing Spice Girls.
I wouldn't know what's being played.
They're making a comeback, aren't they, Spice Girls?
So maybe they could sing at that time.
It's got no relevance to me at all, mate.
Now, Bree, as an Australian, what do you have to say for yourself?
Technically, I'm half Italian.
Brie and Clint on ZM.
That is good friend of the show, Lord and Greenlight.
Well, she would be good friend of the show if Brie hadn't awkwardly filmed her
through a glass window the other day.
You know, like sometimes, sometimes.
Don't put that on me.
No, what, what?
Don't put that on me. what What Don't put that on me
Sometimes
The gods
The radio gods
Give you a gift
Like Channing Tatum
Like when he talked about you
On the red carpet
And you go cool
We can live off this
For another month
And then sometimes
You're sitting at a cafe
And they put Lord
In the seat right next to you
Just separated by a glass window
And instead of going
And talking to her
And going hey
We love you
You should come on the show
You just awkwardly Paparazzi style film her through the window.
Now she'll probably never come on.
She won't even know.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Why?
Oh, great.
I can't wait for the first time we get to interview her and you bring that up.
We're not going to get to interview her.
Ever?
Well, her people will see that and they'll go, don't go to that show.
They're the ones that recorded you.
I didn't tag her.
No, that's worse.
That's worse.
Look, Lord's people, if you're listening.
No.
No, no.
This is for the good of the show.
Yeah.
If you're listening, if you would grant us some time with Lord,
we will happily do the interview without Brie.
What?
For the good of the show.
No. Could have get her to the show. No.
I haven't done anything weird with her.
That would honestly be like
you taking every single
present away from me at Christmas.
Yeah, well, you probably wouldn't
talk to her. You'd probably just awkwardly film her the whole time.
Have a good weekend, everybody.
We're going to the Breakers. Have a great time if you go to
Taylor Swift. See you Monday.
