Hello everybody and welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast where we're going to start with a request for a favour from you guys.
We're trying to game the system a bit and increase the popularity of this podcast.
Oh yeah!
So we've got a request. We would like you, wherever you get this podcast, to give us a rating.
And please, can it be a good one?
Look, all we want is that five stars. From there, write whatever you want about the podcast.
We want to get-
The words don't matter, it's the five stars. From there, write whatever you want about the podcast. The words don't matter.
It's the five stars that matter.
This is what we want.
We want to be in the top 50 by Christmas.
Yeah.
I like it because it's a good goal.
Is it bold?
It's pretty bold.
Ben was about to say,
oh, set yourself a realistic goal,
which is defeatist, Ben.
What about top 50 in the comedy section?
No, top 50 defeatist, Ben. What about top 50 in the comedy section? No, top 50.
Overall.
Overall.
In New Zealand?
In New Zealand.
In New Zealand.
I don't care about where we land in that chart.
Where do you care?
I want to rank higher in the company because that's what –
that's the bit that we get paid on.
That was the real conversation we were having.
Yeah.
I just think our community that listens to this podcast is very loyal.
Very up to date.
Very passionate.
Yeah.
How can we incentivize?
Yeah.
Brie will release one nude for every 100 five-star ratings that we get.
One nude body part.
I don't even.
One nude body part. Does it't even... One nude body part?
Does it like a toe count?
No, it has to be an entire limb.
And then over time,
over time we assemble you.
This is a horrible idea.
So if we go,
you've got two legs,
two arms,
one torso and one head,
although the head's already nude.
So let's go.
You've got five.
Have you ever thought about that?
That your head is nude?
Not mine.
I'm wearing a hat. Yeah. So you've got like a pair of underwear on your head. Yeah. So there's go, you've got five. Have you ever thought about that, that your head is nude? Not mine, I'm wearing a hat.
Yeah, so you've got like a pair of underwear on your head.
Yeah.
So there we go, there's 500 five-star ratings,
you have a full Brie nude.
And then you go, what's next?
Well, that's when I'm willing to step up to the plate.
All right.
Good on you, mate.
And if we get another 500,
Clint will gift the 500th person his brand new Audi.
Oh, yeah.
Why would I give it away?
That is a good incentive, isn't it?
That is a good incentive.
To be honest, by the time we get that many reviews,
the Audi will be out of date anyway, so it'll be time to get rid of it.
Yeah, so you can give it to someone,
and then you just buy a new one with all your money.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm just going to start leaning into it.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's how I got it.
Paid cash baby Cash money
Today on the podcast
What was that?
Sounded like some ancient chimes
Just the water bottle I pretty much
Single handedly made that
Billie Eilish song on
That's the one
I can't believe that they
Use that sound in Aussie,
the traffic light clicker on that whole song.
Yeah, it's wild.
Every time I hear it now, that's the only thing I can hear.
It's like...
Of what song?
You haven't heard that?
Of what song?
We did a whole break on it.
Bad Guy.
Yeah.
So when her and her brother Phineas were in Sydney,
or Melbourne, one of them,
on every crossing, like on a street,
when you're crossing a street on a set of lights,
if you press and when there's a green man that walks,
this sound happens where it's like this.
Digga digga digga digga digga.
I know this sound.
Yeah.
You get the song and play it.
You'll hear it.
Ben, are you going to play it?
I can.
I was trying to find the audio issue doing it.
It'll be the only thing you'll be able to hear now when you listen to it.
Yeah.
So it's the part where it's like...
Do you want me to just play it maybe?
Yeah, go on.
Yeah, I'll just hang on that, mate.
You need to try and listen to the background sound.
Here we go, mate.
Oh, that reticulating drum beat thing.
Is that a walking...
No, no, no.
Yeah.
Do you hear that?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I just assumed it was a drum machine.
Is it not?
No.
No, they recorded that pedestrian crossing. God, could they get any more lazy? Honestly. They just assumed it was a drum machine. Is it not? No. They sampled a pedestrian crossing. They recorded that pedestrian crossing.
God, could they get any more lazy?
Honestly.
They just really.
First you make the album in your bedroom.
Don't even bother going to the studio.
How dare you.
How dare you.
How dare you.
They're just uber talented.
Yeah.
Lazy, lazy Gen Zs.
What else should they use now?
Keyboards.
Oh my God.
I spoke to.
Here's a wild idea.
Drums.
I did some –
I actually mean computer keyboard.
I did some filming for a TV show that's coming up on the weekend,
which I can't say what it is, but you'll see it.
Well, not if you're not New Zealand.
But anyway, and I spoke to a girl there who –
I love people who do the sound on TV shows because you get intimate
with them every day when they put the mic pack on you
and they have to get all close.
Oh, yeah, the soundies.
Yeah, they have to put, like, the mic on your bra and all that stuff.
I thought you meant the people who make, like, the horse sound fix.
No.
When the horse goes running past the guy who stands there
with coconut shells and he's like.
That's so weird that you say that because this whole thing
is about one of those people.
Anyway, I was talking to one of the soundies and she said
that she made the foley for Treasure Island,
the last show that I did.
And I was like, wait, people still do that job?
Yeah.
And then she was like, not really.
She's like, I just put foley in.
She just downloads them, right, and puts them on.
Yeah.
But still, that would be the hardest job ever.
You try and look at something and then be like, okay,
what does that sound exactly like?
You go too deep into things too, and once you realise that a lot of the stuff
in TV shows and movies that you watch is overdubbed,
you'll start knowing when it's overdubbed,
and you'll realise there's one children giggling sound effect
that 95% of movies use.
It's mwah! Yeah, but% of movies use and it's wow
but even new movies will use it
and I'm like how have we not got new
just get new giggling children
jeez snap out of it
that frustrates me all the time
the giggling kids one
you'll also notice there's a slight difference in audio
from where like if you're watching
MasterChef and they're speaking to the contestants
and then they cut away from the contestants
to the food, if you listen carefully
you can hear a difference in the audio
quality and that's where they've overdubbed
it later on and they've changed out the
voiceover and they've got the judge to say something else
they didn't actually say in the room
Who was really bad with it?
The block, Mark Richardson
on the block, really bad, it would The block. Mark Richardson on the block. Really bad.
It would cut away.
It's called pickups.
Yeah, right.
So I didn't know this until I worked on a TV show.
And when you're filming on a show that costs a lot of money to make,
they don't like to do cuts, like takes over and over again.
No.
One take.
Yeah.
That's it.
And then any mistakes, they just do like pickups so they can fix it.
Yeah.
But some people are better at their pickups than others yes and some people make it sound really
smooth and then some of them you're like you sound like you're in a different place because
isn't it the way like if you're live in the moment action you sound different to when
you're just standing there trying to do a pickup yeah make it sound like it's like you're talking
to someone yeah yeah it's hard, isn't it?
You know, you should go watch, I watched this video of the people who used to do, actually
make the foley for the TV show Friends.
It was a video on Facebook.
Have you ever seen that?
No.
So interesting.
I've seen the one for Star Wars.
It was a couple.
It was this couple and they made all the foley for the Friends show.
That's cool.
God, making Star Wars foley. How far would that be? Yeah, there were electric scooters down the hallway. That was all the foley for the Friends show. That's cool. God, making Star Wars foley.
How far would that be?
Yeah, there were electric scooters down the hallway.
That was all the space fighter jets.
They just zoomed them down the hallway.
Was it?
Wow.
No, that's it done.
Really?
Wow.
Electric scooters on Star Wars?
Like these little things that they just made, yeah, in the hallways.
How'd they have electric scooters in the 70s?
No, I don't know.
It was that long ago, mate.
Maybe the newer ones he's talking about.
Oh, right.
Like, I'll show you the video.
It's only two hours long.
Still making those Star Wars films,
you know?
Still cranking them out.
Still just pumping them out.
Even COVID can't kill
another Star Wars movie.
Bring on Mandalorian 9.
Oh, that'd be good.
Really?
We've got a lot of Star Wars fans
who listen to this,
but I have not.
I've not been dragged
into the Star Wars universe.
Anastasia, oh, hello.
I met a woman
on the weekend as well, actually,
that her two dogs were both named after Star Wars characters.
Django was one of them.
Django?
Is that a Star Wars character?
Yeah, my mate's dog's named that.
Really?
Not after Django Unchained?
Yeah.
That's what I thought straight away, Django Unchained.
Yeah.
No.
And then they could be like, hey, where's Django?
And they'd be like, oh, Django's unchained in the backyard.
Oh, Django's a great name for a dog.
Yeah, Django Unchained.
Django Chained?
He's off-linked.
Django Unchained.
Django Chained?
Django Unchained.
No, it was a Star Wars movie.
I actually, I've got a bit of a story relating to this.
This is a bit random.
My sisters both, everyone in New Zealand would have had the year 12 formal,
where you take, it's like your first big event.
My sisters both coincidentally took boys called Luke
and my grandma rocks up.
She's a bit interesting person.
She's not all...
She might listen to this.
No, she won't.
She doesn't even know.
She doesn't go on the internet.
Hopefully she's not sitting at the PC
with mum listening to this tonight.
No, she's tracked on the PC. She can't be. We know your mum listens. She knows she's not sitting at the PC with mum listening to this tonight. Nah, she's tracked on the PC.
She can't be.
She's against.
We know your mum listens.
She knows she's being tracked everywhere.
Oh, your auntie wears tinfoil hats type person.
No, this is my grandma.
Oh, grandma, sorry.
She rocks up.
Both the dates are called Luke.
My sisters are really nervous.
They both really like their dates.
They're not boyfriends or anything.
And she goes,
oh, what's your name?
He's like, I'm Luke.
The other one,
hi, what's your name?
Luke.
She goes,
oh, my Luke's locked up
in the back of my car, I've tied him up there
And her dog
Is called Luke
But you should have seen these boys faces
Because they thought that her partner
Or something should have tied him up in the car
It's good to put potential
Romantic connections for your kids
Or grandkids under a bit of heat
You've got to make them a bit nervous
To test their character
My nan met my formal date and i remember she was very awkward
also he had he had a piercing um an ear piercing and he had a ring in it at the time i don't know
it was the it was the 2000s um anyway my nan was like oh lovely to meet you what's your name and
he introduced himself and then she's like
oh an ear piercing an ear piercing she's like what else do you have peers i hope you don't have your
penis pierced and he goes well actually did he and i was like oh my god and i was already super
awkward because i was in grade 12 going with a boy that i liked yeah and i was like oh my god
and she was joking yeah i think you just don't miss it you don't miss those awkward first like
you know coming up in the show we're going to be talking about something similar are we
what we're wrong in the wedding? Secret relationships No No Degree
No
And you part
Oh
Yeah
That's an awkward first moment
You don't miss first dates
So Anastasia just let us on a content treasure hunt
I love how she just left it to us
No
No
We have to wait like an hour for that
My first ball date
Your first ball date? My first ball date Your first ball date?
My first ball date
The girl I took to the ball slash the prom slash the formal
You took her to your ball?
We went to her parents house for the pre-ball
What's pre-ball like?
Is it as good as the actual ball?
Or is post-ball the best?
She got us to pose
Her mum got us to pose for photos together
And neither of us put our arm around each other
Oh, awkward
We just stood
And the photos exist
I'm in a three-piece tux
And she's in a ball gown
And we just stood next to each other
With our arms at our side
It's the most fucking awkward shit I've ever seen.
And I wish someone would have just shaken me and gone,
put your arm around her, man.
Wake up.
Yeah, it happens in ball play.
All right, all right.
We're all balled out.
So should we get out of here?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yes.
See ya.
Bye, guys.
Hey, Google.
What's the time?
It's 3pm.
Give or take a minute.
Alexa, play ZM on iHeartRadio.
Playing ZM on iHeartRadio.
Hey, Siri, when are Bree and Clint on?
Bree and Clint are on air in five, four, three, two, one.
We're back, baby.
We're on air.
Hello, everybody.
Is it Monday?
No, it's Tuesday. We missed Monday. What do you mean? Well, I don't know We're back, baby. We're on air. Hello, everybody. Is it Monday? No, it's Tuesday.
We missed Monday.
What do you mean?
Well, I don't know.
I don't know.
I was at home with a baby poo-nami going on.
I was at home with a dog poo-nami.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, my puppy took a big poo in my en suite this morning.
We can fairly say everything went to shit for the show yesterday.
I'm so glad I'm not the one that is doing the, you know,
disgusting things in the en suite anymore.
It's the puppy.
You've got a dog to blame it on.
My friend told me when they got a dog,
the best thing for their relationship was they could blame all bad smells on the dog.
Oh, my God.
This puppy, nine weeks old, she farts like a trooper.
She does not.
She's obviously my daughter.
She does not.
No, she does.
She does not, but I'll maintain the lie for you
if it helps you get through your relationship.
Hey, I heard Lauren in the news just there saying
that the All Blacks game is expected to sell out
at Eden Park this weekend, which is exciting
to be able to have 40,000 people in the same place again.
We've got a double pass to give away to the game
on the show at four o'clock today.
We can't just breeze past why you should be going this weekend.
Why, why, why? Because of the
amazing game that happened on Sunday.
Oh yeah, it's going to be great. It's going to be
one of the best games to go watch.
I think the Wallabies will be pumped.
We'll get absolutely
smashed, but
I think it'll be a good atmosphere though. It's going to be a great
atmosphere. Will Rico
Ioane be allowed back in the stadium?
Well, if you want to find out in person, be there,
be here on the show at four o'clock when we give away free tickets.
Yeah, pretty easy.
Up next, my mum called me up yesterday
and she's found something of mine because she's doing a spring clean
and she said she doesn't know what to do with it.
Uh-oh.
Is it that little box where you kept the green stuff in?
Look, I'm going to, you know, radio hooks.
I'm not going to tell people.
Yeah, good.
And then they have to come back and find out what it is.
Who knows?
Who knows what it could be?
Raunchy DVDs.
Okay, shut up.
VHS copies of Big Brother Uncut.
I'm not that old. Taped off TV.
You are that old.
We'll find out what it was next.
Bree and Clint. Clint, recently
my parents, well, not
recently, about a year ago, they moved out
of our childhood home that we'd been
in for my whole life and they
moved into their dream house that they've built.
Yeah, they built their romance pad.
They did.
With the red room.
No, there's no red room.
Isn't it in the dungeon?
No, there's a media room where they watch footy and there's a spa.
And there just happens to be hooks in the ceiling.
No, there's not.
Shut up.
You're like, mum, what's that for?
And she's like, ah, the projector.
That's for making salamis because I'm from an Italian family.
Right, that's right, right, yeah, yeah.
What kind of salami?
Up to you.
That's why they call it the big sausage room.
Yeah, exactly.
Anyway, my mum calls me up and she's like, you know.
Dad's stuck hanging from the roof.
No, the joke's over.
We're moving on.
Anyway, so I've moved around my whole life chasing my radio dream gig
and I've moved from place to place, state to state,
and then now country.
And then you found me.
That's right.
When I moved over here, I literally had to take nearly most of my life
from the past 10 years and I gave it all back to my mum
because I was like, I don't have any room for this stuff.
Can you store it and then I'll, you know, go through it when I'm home.
That's what parents are good for.
My parents have got a three-car garage in Red Rock
and I just figured you've got the room.
I'm just going to put it here for a little bit.
Just leave it there.
Then it just stays there forever.
Yeah.
Because you can't come to, you know,
you just don't want to get rid of it.
Anyway, my mum is doing a spring clean
and she's getting rid of stuff.
Oh, I hate it when they do a spring clean.
She's throwing stuff out left, right and centre,
you know, just, you know, not even meaningful stuff,
just all my trophies from when I was younger.
I was like, you're throwing out all of my trophies
that I worked bloody hard for.
Humble brag from you, by the way.
And then she goes.
All my trophies.
No, listen to this.
And then she goes, don't worry, you'll win more.
And I was like, no, Mum, I'm past winning anything in my life.
I'm not winning another thing.
I can barely run 100 metres.
Yeah, the glory days are over.
That's it.
I need to keep those.
Anyway, she goes, oh, I also found your degree, your uni degree,
which is a piece of paper and it's rolled up into a scroll.
She goes, what do you want me to do with it?
And I had this weird like that piece of paper is literally worth 25 to 30 grand.
Yeah, it's weird when you look at it like that.
But then you go, okay, if you were a doctor and you're –
You put it on your wall.
You put it on your wall in your surgery, you know,
so that when your clients come in they can see you're a qualified doctor.
Even if you're a frigging chiropractor.
You put it up.
You put it up where people can see it
But what do you do when you're like
I mean I studied journalism and PR
Well see there's the problem
And I don't like practice in either of those
If either of us had a degree in radio
We could put it up here in the studio
No you couldn't
Where would you put it up?
Everyone would look at you
By the way I think both of our producers have a degree in radio
Do you guys?
Producer Ben you've got a degree in radio? I do yeah you guys? Producer Ben, you've got a degree in radio?
I do, yeah, yeah.
And producer Anastasia, you've got a degree in radio?
Just because you bought a piece of paper off the internet,
just because you bought it off the internet doesn't mean you've got a degree, guys.
Hey, two years of broadcasting school really does.
They're both more qualified than us.
Yeah, technically.
Yeah, all right, I'm turning you guys off now.
That's enough out of you.
Turn them off.
Anyway, she's like, what do you want me
to do with it? And I was like, oh,
well, I don't really want to throw it out
even though I don't use it. And then I
started to think about, you know, that same thing.
I paid $25,000 to $30,000
for this piece of paper and I
do not use it. And you don't use it, no. It's the most
expensive purchase
I've ever made that I don't use.
No, it's a $25,000 investment
in finding yourself.
No,
it's not.
I didn't find anything.
That's what my sister says.
I found debt.
She went to,
lots of debt.
She went to uni
in Motago.
I think she did teaching.
What do you mean
you think she did teaching?
You should know that.
She's your sister.
Why should I know?
She doesn't do it.
She doesn't do it.
If it was her vocation,
if it was her career, I'd be like,
that's my sister.
Says you who couldn't even finish your degree.
In radio.
Yeah.
So don't go after your sister.
You couldn't even finish the degree.
Yeah.
What I'm saying is there are people who have invested a lot of money.
A lot of people.
In their degrees.
And you can say, yeah, it was a waste of money.
Or you can go, it was a journey.
It got me to where I am now.
Yeah, hashtag no regrets.
Working as a barista.
I want to know from people because I'm one of these.
I studied to be a barrister and now I'm a barista.
Because I'm one of these people, paid a bunch of money for a degree.
I finished it but I do not use it.
Yeah.
I want to know, is that you?
Did you pay a bunch of money for a degree and you do something completely different?
0800 DIAL ZM.
How much is your degree worth that you don't use?
You can also text us on 9696.
Talk to my mother.
She's doing a spring clean and the time has finally come
over the last decade where I've just been putting all the stuff from every time I move house,
just put it in their garage, put it in their storage.
Finally, she's decided she's going to chuck all of it.
The weekend I bought a house, my mum showed up with boxes of stuff
and she's like, you've got a house now.
This is yours now.
This is yours now.
Take it.
I was like, but mum, that's part of the deal.
You're like my storage plan.
My mum can't get to me because she's in Australia,
so I've got that working on my side.
She's just going to chuck it.
It costs too much to freight it here.
She'll just burn it.
They live rurally.
Yeah, bonfire.
They'll have a big bonfire.
They love doing that.
Anyway, she said to me, a few things I found,
she's like, I found your uni degree,
which is a double bachelor in journalism and PR.
What do you want me to do with it? And I thought, well, I don't bloody use it, do I? What do you want me to do with it?
And I thought, well, I don't bloody use it, do I?
What do you want her to do with it?
It's weird because it's not like I work in that field,
but I did pay all the money for that degree.
You might as well get it.
I don't really want to throw it out.
Yeah, you might as well get it.
Put it in a frame from the warehouse, you know, just have it there.
I'll put it in my home office when I buy a house when I'm 55.
It makes you feel smarter.
Yeah.
Just when people walk in, there'll be a conversation piece.
That, oh, that's my $55,000.
Oh, just my double bachelor.
That's my $30,000 piece of paper.
But don't you work in a cafe?
Yes, I do.
Anyway, I wanted to know from people out there on 0800 dial ZM,
I've got a $30,000 degree.
I don't use it.
How much was your degree that you don't use?
Hi, Rose.
Hi, Rose.
Hey.
What is it for you?
What did you study?
So I did a certificate in applied mental health
and then two and a half years of a Bachelor of Social Practice.
Whoa.
Okay, what's the bill looking like?
Yeah, about $30,000, same as Brie.
Yeah, they're not cheap, are they?
Decent amount of money.
Yeah.
And what do you do now?
I'm a dog groomer.
Oh, my God.
Wow.
I'm so jealous.
I mean, you've chosen two very rewarding career paths there.
Both great.
I mean, working in the mental health field,
helping people, grooming dogs, playing with dogs.
Helping dogs. Exactly. Helping dogs.
Helping dogs.
Nah, Rose, I think you're on the right path.
Does it require any qualification to be a dog groomer?
Yeah, you've got to do heaps of training.
Right.
Yeah, I've done like apprenticeships and stuff for it.
You go, girl.
Can I bring my new puppy to you?
A hundred percent.
Great.
I'll get you.
A hundred bucks.
A hundred, yeah. I'll get your details 100 bucks. 100, yeah. I'll get
your details after this. Hi, Matt.
G'day, Matt. Hey, hey, Sam, how are you?
Good, thank you. Matt, what's the degree
you studied first?
Yes, I spent four years studying
a Bachelor of Physiotherapy.
Spent 58k, and
now I'm working, running Christmas
cookies at Cookie Time. Good man.
Those cookies are amazing. But, Matty. Those cookies are amazing.
But Matty, if you're ever in the situation where someone you're selling to has a fall,
you're on the case.
I know.
I know.
The right man for the job.
Yeah, plus I know that job.
It's very, you're on the road a lot.
There's a lot of getting around.
You could suffer an injury.
And if you do, who's going to be laughing then?
Strip yourself up.
Yeah, exactly. Treat myself you do, who's going to be laughing then? Strip yourself up. Yeah, exactly.
Treat myself. Yeah, right. Yeah, you should offer physio and cookies as a
dual deal. I'd buy that. How many
buckets of Christmas cookies do you have to sell to pay
off a $58,000 student loan,
Matt? Oh, I honestly
have got no idea. A heap.
Don't think about it. But Matty, you happy?
Oh, absolutely stoked.
Love my job. Love it, Maddy. That's awesome.
This person wants to remain anonymous.
Hello. Hello.
Hi. Anonymous, what did you study?
I did
four
things. I did a diploma
Wait, wait, wait. You've done four
separate different degrees?
Not degrees. So
there's a couple of, there's one degree in there,
and then there's the start of another degree in there that I didn't like,
and then there's a couple of diplomas.
No, all the same.
Tell us all four of them.
What are they?
So I did a diploma of applied science,
which cost me north of $10,000 when I added in all the course-related costs
and all those things.
I started a Bachelor of Chiropractic, but then I hated it.
Fair enough.
Get out of there.
By the time I figured out I didn't like it, it had cost me 20K.
Oh, my God.
We're up to 30 grand.
That is an expensive lesson.
Yeah, it was.
It really was.
I then did a Bachelor of Business Studies, which I finished,
but still cost me $30,000 or $25,000 or something around there.
All right, we're at $55,000.
I then got bored and signed up for a massage therapy course,
which cost me $6,500.
Right, okay.
You're the most qualified person in New Zealand
for a bunch of random stuff.
We're north of $60,000.
And the big question out of all of those things
that you've studied,
$60,000 worth of education,
what do you do for a job?
I did one more qualification in financial services
and I now work as a financial advisor.
There we go.
Okay, well, we found something.
Well, if there's one thing you know about, it's spending money on degrees.
My wall looks pretty at home.
I bet it does.
It'd look amazing.
The most expensive wall in New Zealand.
Bree and Clint.
Time for the latest.
From iHeartRadio.
This is The Latest.
Live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Dean, Cardi B, the rapper's had a birthday.
And what has her separated baby daddy got her for her birthday?
Oh, my goodness.
It's good to be Cardi B.
First of all, she's turning 28 over the weekend.
She's so young, isn't she?
And, you know, tidied up in style in Vegas.
She's really young.
Isn't it just weird that she's so young and she's done so much?
Here are two of the coolest gifts that she got for her birthday. First of all,
in LA, not far from where I live,
a huge billboard,
a picture of her and her daughter, Culture,
that said, Happy Birthday, Mummy. Love, Culture,
which Offset obviously paid for.
Very cute. But then the second present, which I
think just trumps all gifts
this year, Offset
got Cardi B a Rolls Royce custom
and on the seat it says culture.
So the embroidered seats were culture
which is the name of their daughter of course
because they're obsessed with their daughter very rightfully.
So good gift though. Rolls Royce.
I think it was a ghost or a race.
Is Offset trying to win her back?
Are they together again?
Are they still separated? What's going on?
Well, good question.
There's some good gifts. I think most
people would take anyone back for a Rolls Royce custom.
Here's what he did. I would.
I would.
I would. I have definitely
done that for less. Here's the thing. Over the
weekend, Cardi B was lap dancing
him at a club in Vegas. So he
was at the birthday celebration.
She was like lap dancing him. Megan
the Stallion was there. It was really, really
cool. And yes, it looks like they're
certainly not in bad terms
if you're getting lap danced, Rolls Royces
and billboards. Looking pretty good.
Forget the Rolls Royce. If I got you a
billboard for your birthday, would you be
happy or angry? I would be so
upset. I'd be like, why are you
getting my face on a giant billboard? This is the
first year you might be in New Zealand for your birthday.
We should organise Bree
a billboard for her birthday.
One by her house.
We could get that Woman's Day picture.
Oh, you don't dare.
Where you've got the red turtleneck and the white
capris on.
You dare.
And we can write underneath it,
Happy 50th birthday, Bree.
Have fun taking your kids to soccer training.
That is the latest brought to you by Panasonic.
Their new true wireless earbuds
with dual hybrid noise cancelling are in stores now.
Thanks, Dean McCarthy.
Back in a second.
I've got hot Pope news, everybody.
His royal, no.
His, the, I don't even know how to address the Pope.
And I went to a Catholic high school, so did you.
Yeah.
His holiness.
His holiness.
That's what it is.
His holiness, the Pope.
He's got himself a new car.
So actually we need different music for that.
Has this got
bulletproof glass as well?
I'm not sure.
There you go.
It's got a stand
up bit at the back for the Pope to do his
waving. He's got a seat in there too.
I think maybe this Pope went away from the
bulletproof glass because he wanted to make himself seem more accessible. He's got a seat in there too. I think maybe this Pope went away from the bulletproof glass because he wanted
to make himself seem more accessible.
He's a Pope of the people
and he was like, hey guys,
I want to be more, I want to be closer
to you. Yeah, look, I'm not going to lie, he's probably my favourite
Pope. Yeah, right. If I had to pick
one. Who are your top three?
Him.
Actually, before I tell you what the new
Popemobile is, because I know you're dying to know what sort of whip the Pope got himself.
I'm going to say he's in maybe like a Toyota Echo.
Oh, okay.
I'll run you through some of the more recent Popemobiles.
Or is he in something like me, like a, you know?
Like a Lancer?
Yeah, a Lancer.
With an Evo body kit?
With rims and maybe like a standard body kit.
Well, you judge.
Last year, the Pope rode in a range of different automobiles,
Popemobiles rather.
In Panama, he rode in a Pope Ford Ranger.
Oh, nice.
Which is pretty scat.
That's off-road Popemobile.
Yeah.
Or he's coming around to build a deck on the back of your rental property,
Popemobile.
Yeah.
When he was in Bulgaria last year, the Pope rode in an Isuzu D-Max,
the ranger's poor cousin.
He loves the four-wheel drive Utes, doesn't he?
The Pope is a tradie.
Yeah.
And when the Pope went to Abu Dhabi last year,
the Popemobile was a Mercedes G-Wagon.
G-Wagon, G-Wagon, G-Wagon.
Yeah.
Scucks Pope.
That's a dope Pope.
That's a dope Popemobile. That's a dope Popem Pope. That's a dope Pope. That's a dope Pope mobile.
That's a dope Pope mobile.
That's a dope mobile.
That's a dope Pope mobile.
Anyway, he's committed to a new vehicle.
There's no travel this year for the Pope because of COVID.
Yeah, of course.
He needs to stay safe.
And they've invested in a new vehicle.
What is it?
The new Pope mobile is a Prius.
He's environmentally aware. What's kind of a Prius. He's environmentally aware.
What's kind of a Prius?
It's a cool Prius.
They've cut the back off it and they've put the pop bit on the back.
Kind of looks like, you know, those Red Bull cars where they cut the back half off.
Yeah.
Yeah, he can stand up in the back.
From what I can see, there is no bulletproof glass.
And actually, technically,
it's not a Prius.
This is actually a
Toyota hydrogen-powered Miara.
Hydrogen-powered?
Is it a time machine?
No.
It runs on water.
No, it does not.
Yeah, that's what hydrogen...
Hot.
Hydrogen is a gas
that becomes water.
It runs on water. It runs on water.
It runs on hydrogen gas, yeah.
He's environmentally conscious, the Pope.
But anyway, look at it.
Look at it.
It's essentially a Prius.
It looks like a Prius.
Imagine you order yourself an Uber and the Pope's in your driveway in a Prius.
Can you imagine turning up to the gas station?
You're like, oh, fuel's over two bucks.
That's all right.
You walk in and you buy a few litres of water.
And then you realise water's more expensive than fuel.
I think I've misrepresented what hydrogen is.
But it's water that comes out the tailpipe in a hydrogen car.
Right.
Did you know what his job, what he used to do, that Pope?
What?
There was a story about it a couple of weeks ago.
Wait tables at Hooters?
No.
He used to be a bouncer. No, he didn't. Yes, he did. He was a story about it a couple of weeks ago. Wait tables at Hooters? No. He used to be a bouncer.
No, he didn't.
Yes, he did.
He was a bouncer.
Well, I don't know if they called it a bouncer,
but he was like security at a club or something.
What was the criteria for getting into the club?
It's like pray the rosary.
I don't know.
Confess.
And then people found out about it and they were like,
he's the coolest Pope ever.
Yeah, right.
Well, he is now because he's got himself a gosh darn Prius.
The new Popemobile
is a Prius.
Don't Popemobile.
Hey, I want to talk about wedding disasters.
There's one at the moment
that is going viral on TikTok because
a woman, three years
on, has found time
to talk about her wedding disaster.
I guess it would take you that long to get over it, wouldn't it?
A woman from the States, she lives in Nebraska, has said on her horror wedding day, she thought
she would gather her own floral bouquet.
She would gather it?
Like, as in go out and pick it?
Yeah, go out and pick them, yeah.
There's flowers that grow up behind her house.
Oh, so like wildflowers, essentially.
Wildflowers, yeah, yeah.
It's a nice, you know how with weddings,
people like to have significant ties
and little spikes of significance in there?
Something blue, something borrowed, something old, something new.
And something poisonous.
And something poisonous, yeah, I forgot about that one.
The flowers that she picked ended up to be poisonous. They were very similar
to poison ivy. Right. Not good. And as she was
gathering them, she began reacting quite badly to
them. Her eyes swelled up so much that she went blind.
Oh, the poor thing. She got a rash on her face.
She got a fever and she could barely stay awake.
God, how allergic was she?
Well, it's like poison ivy.
The flower's like poison ivy.
Oh, bless her.
That's horrible.
They tried to take her to the doctors,
but because it was a weekend wedding where they were,
the doctor's surgery was closed.
Was she in a wedding dress when they took her?
She was in a wedding dress, yeah.
Oh, no.
There's pictures
She didn't do her first dance
Because she lost all her energy
And she didn't feel like standing up
They took no wedding photos
Because her face is all puffy
And she's all swollen up
Oh no
It's a full disaster
That is a real disaster
Like a nightmare
Because the amount of money you spend on one day
And that's why the florists who are listening to this show
Are going
Yes our wedding bouquets
are expensive,
but at least they're not poisonous.
Yeah, we make sure
we don't put any poison ivy in them.
Well, they know, right?
They know what to do.
Yeah.
I feel so bad for her
and I feel bad for anyone
whose wedding day gets ruined
because there's so much pressure
on that day being the perfect day.
And if it's not,
then it seems like it's a disaster,
like even more of a disaster than what it would be. In time, you absolutely get over it and you go, oh, it's just one day. And if it's not, then it seems like it's a disaster, like even more of a disaster than what it would be. In time you absolutely get over it and you go
oh it's just one day. But I mean that's coming from someone who had the perfect wedding.
Yeah exactly, so you can talk. I've got the photos, I've got the memories, I'm all good. I went to my
uncle's wedding, this was a long time ago when I was young and I was
it was really hot, it was like the middle of summer on the Gold Coast
and it was boiling
and there was all, you know, the bridesmaids were there
and the groomsmen and the ceremony was going for a long time
and then all of a sudden I've noticed one of the groomsmen
looked really pale.
Yeah.
And next minute he was like kind of dizzy, dizzy,
and then he passed out.
He passed out.
Fell over as they were doing like their vows.
I've heard of that.
Yeah, and then as they helped him up, he spewed on the stage.
Yeah.
The other issue with that is that a lot of groomsmen
don't hydrate before the wedding.
They have celebratory beers and a whiskey to toast the groom
on his birthday.
Not a good idea.
And then you stand at the front of the altar for 30 minutes
in the beating hot sunshine in a tuxedo and you pass out.
No, this was a Catholic wedding.
It was a lot longer than that.
Oh, God.
Yeah, the full tux.
I went to a Catholic wedding this year
and the priest made the bride and groom sit down.
Yeah, that happens, yeah.
He brought chairs up for them and he says,
this is going to be a long one.
You guys might as well sit down.
That happens a lot, yeah.
Oh, 800 dials at him this afternoon.
What went wrong at the wedding?
Might not have been your wedding.
Might have been a wedding that you were attending or it might have been your wedding. Any kind of disaster. Did the two families have went wrong at the wedding? Might not have been your wedding, might have been a wedding that you were attending
or it might have been your wedding.
Any kind of disaster.
Did the two families
have a fight at the reception?
Did you do a full bridesmaid
and do number twos
in your wedding dress?
No, that doesn't happen.
Doesn't it?
You don't know?
We haven't opened the phone lines
on it yet.
Surely not.
0800 dials at him
where you can text us
on 9696 wedding disasters.
What went wrong at the wedding?
That's what we want to know this afternoon.
Pretty simple one.
Hopefully nothing, but if there is, call us.
We're looking for wedding disasters this afternoon.
A lady sent a TikTok about her wedding
where she picked her own flowers
and they ended up being poisonous.
Wrong flowers.
They're wildflowers.
Her face puffed up like a peach.
Venus fly traps. She nearly
passed out. No poison ivy.
I was just saying, they're the wrong flowers to pick.
Do you reckon? At least
a Venus fly trap wouldn't give you an allergic
reaction, you know? Well, it depends.
True, it depends where it bites you. Did you have a
wedding disaster? And can you laugh
about it now? Hi, Kelly. Hi, Kelly.
Hi, it wasn't actually mine. It was my mum's wedding day and can you laugh about it now? Hi Kelly. Hi Kelly. Hi, it wasn't actually mine,
it was my mum's wedding day and it was a few years ago, there was a massive like weather
bomb that came through, I'm pretty sure it was actually a cyclone. It was an outdoor wedding
and came through in the night and the morning of and it destroyed the entire outdoor venue.
No. There was no backup and we had to relocate the entire wedding like. No. Oh, my God. There was no backup,
and we had to relocate the entire wedding,
like, hours before it went ahead.
So Mum walked down the aisle
having, like, not even seen the venue
that it had been moved to.
So did you guys move it to, like, a, you know,
residential backyard, like, in a cul-de-sac?
That would have been pretty good.
Or a local Mecca's.
Yeah, or, like, an RSA.
The kids' room at Macca's
well you almost
hit it on the head there
it is kind of like an RSA
so mum works
for the working men's club
oh perfect
nothing wrong with that
they had
we got it there
literally
I think it was
two hours
before we were due
to walk down the aisle
I tell you what
every cloud
is a silver lining
and I've seen
how cheap the drinks
are at the working men's club
so that would have been
a great wedding in the end.
Would have cut costs,
you know,
everyone's cost per head
down a heap.
Yeah, yeah.
E-Huck is here.
Hi, E-Huck.
Hello.
Kia ora whānau.
Kia ora.
Kia ora.
What was the wedding disaster?
Was it your wedding?
Yes, it was our wedding.
Oh no.
Our wedding photographer,
she forgot her camera
and tried to charge us
for using my wife's
phone.
Shut the front door. Your photographer
forgot the camera? Yeah.
So she turned up on the morning. She was
half an hour late for
obviously the first
part of the bike getting ready.
And she had only brought
her lens bag, not her
camera bag.
Where did you find – yeah, okay.
What kind of – I mean, what phone are we talking?
Was it a good phone to take photos of?
It was a good phone.
I watched the plug, Huawei phone.
Yeah, right, right.
Yeah, yeah.
But it was – I mean, it's no SLR, is it, though?
No.
No, no, exactly.
And it was towards the afternoon when she had turned up.
And then, yeah, we were wanting the golden hour photos
for after the, before the ceremony.
But then her husband, because she was,
we were an hour and a half away from Tauranga.
Yeah.
Her husband started driving.
He missed it.
So then she started taking photos with my wife's camera.
And then a week later, we got a $200, $250 invoice
for editing, photo editing.
Off your phone?
Off of my wife's phone.
I told her to stick it, and then we never paid it,
and just used the photos that we had.
And I think I did a better job on pixels, to be honest.
Yeah, I was going to say.
It's not like she can go, if you don't pay me, you won't get the photos.
They're on your wife's phone.
You're like, we've already got them.
I can just picture her being a photographer, right?
She's like leaving the house.
She's like, right.
She's probably hung over by the sounds of it.
Yeah.
She's like, right.
Have I got everything?
Phone, wallet, keys.
Sweet.
Let's go.
I'm good.
I'm good to go.
I've got everything.
Katie, finally, wedding disaster.
What happened?
Mate's wedding a few years back.
Rod's mother
ran away with the groom right after the reception.
Excuse me?
The bride's mother
ran away with the groom straight after the reception?
Are we talking the same night?
Yes.
The same night? What? Did they have their first
dance or something? The day of?
Yep. Day of.
Oh my god. What was the aftermath?. The day of? Yep. Day of. Oh, my God.
What was the aftermath?
What happened after that?
I assume the wedding, the marriage was off?
Well, the bride's mother and the groom went on the honeymoon together.
You're kidding.
No.
I wish I was.
They didn't go on the honeymoon that was organised?
Yes, the arranged honeymoon that was for the new husband and wife.
What's going on?
This sounds like a cover story
for that magazine, That's Life.
You know?
Surely this was happening before the wedding.
Was it?
Was it like an affair thing
that revealed itself at the wedding?
Yes, it kind of just blew up after that.
God.
And then they came back from the honeymoon
and it was all over.
The relationship.
Oh, my God.
You're telling me it wasn't like a solid... Wait a minute.
No.
I swear I saw this episode on Shortland Street last week.
Brie and Clint.
Oh, my God.
I heard she bought all her followers.
She would.

Brian Clint.
Elon Musk, owner of Tesla, one of the richest men in the world at this stage.
Owner of SpaceX.
SpaceX, he's big into this stage. Owner of SpaceX. SpaceX.
He's big into tech, worth billions of dollars.
I think he might have become one of the most relatable humans over the weekend.
Has he?
Because he's a buzzy guy.
I quite like him.
He's a weird fish.
Some of the stuff he tweets.
Yeah.
He's the one who named his kid AX49.
3.124 pi equals X.
Yeah.
Yeah, he became really relatable to me over the weekend
because there was some tweets that went out
where he was quizzed about what his favourite food was
during his visits to Germany.
Yeah.
And someone was like, surely it's the country's pastries
and then someone else suggested something else.
And then he said, no, actually my favourite food
and one of my favourite foods of all time is the donut kebab.
Said he loved eating kebabs, one of his most popular foods in his diet.
Yeah, who doesn't love eating a kebab?
I had a kebab on Friday night and it was everything I wanted.
Were you drunk?
No.
You weren't drunk?
But I was thinking about this.
What is your, you know, after a few lemonades, what's your meal of choice?
Love a kebab.
Mine's a chicken kebab, tomato, lettuce, cheese, heaps of barbecue sauce.
I'm ready to go home.
I'm ready to tackle the walk home.
I like a mixed kebab.
Yeah, that's what a donut kebab is, I'm pretty sure.
Is it?
I think.
Have you ever had, have you guys ever had a halal snack pack?
No. You've never had that had a halal snack pack? No
You've never had that?
A halal snack pack?
Yeah
Right
Oh it's a big thing
It's chips
You can get it from a kebab shop usually
Yeah
Chips
And then they put like whatever meat you want on top of it
Yeah
And then sauces and all the rest of the goodness
Yeah
It's delish
Have you ever had one of those when you weren't drunk?
Maybe
Uber Eats Yeah. Delish. Have you ever had one of those when you weren't drunk? Maybe.
Uber Eats opens windows that sometimes shouldn't be open to you.
Yeah, right.
You can get it any time of the day.
This is the only downfall, I think, of a kebab.
What?
The only bit.
There's no downfall.
Sometimes they roll it a bit too tight and some of the tinfoil gets inside the kebab.
And if you've got fillings and you're really hungry and you tuck straight into that kebab,
if you get a bit of the tinfoil in your filling... You need to update your fillings.
Do I?
Yeah.
Show me your fillings.
What colour are they?
I don't want to now.
No, show me.
I don't know.
I've never seen them.
Show me your fillings.
Hold on.
Oh, yeah, you've got a few metal ones in there.
Have I?
You need to change them to the white ones.
Then you can chew all the alfalo you want.
Either that or I've got little bits of kebab tinfoil stuck in my teeth.
Bree and Clint.
Secret relationships.
Have you been in one?
Did you know about one?
Probably not because it's secret.
If you knew about one, you'd be incredibly compromised.
Yeah.
No one wants to know about a secret relationship.
Well, some people do.
But then you feel like you have to do something about it.
It's sad, but I feel like, you know, in some circumstances,
it is all too common in our society today.
Oh, that was deep from you.
It was, but, you know, due to whatever reasons.
But it's come out over the over the weekend that the
premier of new south wales over in australia so she's the leader of new south wales pretty big
deal okay uh her name's gladys beragiclian uh she's been the premier for quite some time
um it came out uh that she had had a secret five-year relationship with a Liberal MP
from New South Wales named Daryl Maguire.
And he's actually in amongst and involved
in a corruption investigation at the moment.
Yeah, okay.
And he was married and...
Right, okay, there we go.
Et cetera, et cetera.
I was like, what's wrong with her?
She can date whoever she wants.
Well, yeah, it's true.
Anyway, there's a little snippet here of her talking about it.
Hands down, this has been one of the most difficult days of my life.
I'm an extremely private person and without question,
I stuffed up in my personal life.
So let me just get the gist.
She was single but he was married?
Well, this is the thing. I looked into that because I didn't want to say anything
that wasn't true. But apparently, so he was married. He
has two children with another woman. And apparently they broke
up about 10 years ago. And they've been estranged
ever since. When Gladys Berejiklian was asked
about it, she said she believes there was no crossover.
Yeah.
That's what he told her.
Yeah.
But they don't know exactly.
Ew, saucy.
Yeah, so.
So why is it a scandal?
Because he's been involved in a few dodgy things,
or allegedly, and then she's the Premier of New South Wales,
and then they're saying that, you know, was she involved in this?
God, it's so House of Cards.
Have you seen House of Cards?
It's very House of Cards. Right? Very.
And I always wonder that about New
Zealand Parliament. Like, New Zealand Parliament
seems so boring compared to
well, House of Cards, mainly because that's a TV show.
Yeah, who do you reckon the biggest scandal would be?
I thought you were about to ask me who was the biggest
scandal. No, no.
I was like, are you going to ask that question?
Like who would be, you know, who has the biggest scandal
like in the background?
I am not going to say on the radio.
No.
I'm not going to...
Who would it be?
No.
No, no, no.
And don't you, don't you...
I just wonder if New Zealand Parliament is as scandalous as if...
I just think you never know what's going on behind closed doors.
What's buzzing around in the beehive up there.
And you know what?
No one is 100% squeaky clean.
Not you, not me, not anyone.
What have you heard?
I'll tell you off air.
But I want to know from people because I know we put this on our Instagram
and it was quite shocking to me but also quite understandable, I think,
where we asked people, have you or are you in a secret relationship?
Yeah, okay.
And the numbers on our Instagram poll, it was like 60-40.
So there are different reasons you would have a secret relationship, right?
A lot of different reasons.
The person might be married.
Yes.
You might be married. It. You might be married.
It might be because of a religious thing.
Your family might not approve of your relationship.
It might be, you know,
that you can't reveal who
you're dating to your family for whatever
reason. They may be a Russian spy
sent here to gain intelligence.
That one's probably unlikely. On the Team
America's cup racing boat
for the Russian challenge.
Well, we don't know until we get the phone calls.
Might be your, you know, maybe you're dating your brother's ex.
Yeah.
Lots of reasons.
Lots of reasons why you would keep a relationship secret.
But are you willing to share it with us this afternoon?
Yeah.
0800 dials at M or you can text us on 9696.
You can also remain completely anonymous.
Have you been in a secret relationship with...
Premier of New South Wales over in Aussie,
Gladys Berejiklian,
it's come out over the weekend
that she was in a secret five-year relationship
with a New South Wales Liberal MP,
Daryl Maguire,
who's been involved in a few corruption investigations.
He was married and they don't know if there was crossover
with her and his estranged wife.
People love a political relationship scandal
because you see these guys on TV every week
and they're always telling you what to do, aren't they?
Yeah, they're like, you need to follow the rules.
You need to follow the rules.
You need to stick to the rules.
You need to do that.
They're like, you're having an affair. You're having an affair and now we all get to follow the rules. You need to follow the rules. You need to stick to the rules. You need to do that. You're having an affair.
You're having an affair.
And now we all get to hear about it.
So it's horrible seeing all that stuff played out
but at the same time people love it.
They're saying that she potentially is going to have to step down
because of this.
Why should she have to step down?
Just for having, she wasn't married.
Well, it's not because of that.
It's because of the allegations that are towards him
and then she was involved with him.
Right. And all that. I don't know. She was taking secret holidays allegations that are towards him and then she was involved with him. Right.
And all that.
I don't know.
She was taking secret holidays.
I'm not talking politics.
I don't know nothing.
You can't bring up a topic and then go,
I don't want to talk about it.
No, but I actually don't know exactly,
but that's what it says, that they're looking into it.
Let's talk about some other people's secret relationships instead.
There's a lot of people texting through on this.
A lot of, you know, very risque ones.
Someone texted her and they said,
I've actually been seeing my fourth form teacher for nine months.
I'm 23 and she's 33.
God, I'm glad that you're older.
I was like, no, please don't drag us into that.
So wait, can you explain to me what's fourth form?
Fourth form is like year 11.
Right.
Year 11?
Yeah.
Year 11.
6, 7, 8, 9, 10. It's about year 11. So why wouldn't you just call like year 11. Right. Year 11? Yeah. Year 11. Six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
It's about year 11.
So why wouldn't you just call it year 11?
Because it used to be called fourth form.
They'll be old school.
Anyway, they're not fourth form.
That's the important bit.
They taught them when they were fourth form.
But obviously afterwards.
Now that they're 23.
Yeah.
They've started dating now.
Yeah, I can kind of see why you'd keep that a secret for a little while.
I can see why the teacher would want to keep it a secret. You would be telling all of your mates. Yeah, I can kind of see why you'd keep that a secret for a little while. I can see why the teacher would want to keep it a secret.
You would be telling all of your mates.
Yeah, exactly.
Remember Mrs. What's-Her-Face?
Who have we got on the phones?
Catherine.
Hi.
Hi.
Have you been in a secret relationship or do you know someone that is?
I was in a secret relationship, but I didn't actually know about it at the time.
What?
What happened?
Turns out my ex was married, still seeing his wife, also had another girlfriend on the go,
and it all came to a head when I was at his place down in the South Island for a holiday,
and his girlfriend, I guess, whatever you would call her, broke into the house while I was there.
No.
So let me get this straight.
This guy had a wife and two girlfriends?
Well, yeah.
How much time does this guy have?
How on earth?
Like, is he, like, is there three of him?
How much energy?
Does he take Barocca?
I don't know.
He'd need all the Barocca he could get.
This is the plot line to that movie with Cameron Diaz in it.
The other woman, the other woman.
He was a lot older than me too.
It was crazy.
Catherine, was he good looking?
Oh, I don't know.
Not now.
Not now.
You can't see him like that anymore.
I've got to know.
Are any of the women, obviously you're not,
are any of the women still with him?
Oh no, he's married to somebody else now.
He's married to someone else.
And he's probably got two other girlfriends as well,
so you have to ask them.
Someone on the text machine said,
I'm dating my ex-girlfriend's mother,
who also used to date my best friend.
Yeah, you'd keep that a secret.
Wait, so they're dating their ex-girlfriend's mom.
Whoa.
You're dating your ex's mum
and your best friend used to date your ex's mum.
Wait, hang on.
Yeah.
That, right.
Well, mum likes him young by the sound.
Claire, finally, hi.
Can you tell us about a secret relationship?
Hi.
Hi.
I was in a secret relationship
With my best friend's brother
For about six months
Why did you keep it a secret?
Because I don't think my best friend
Would have appreciated it at all
And she still doesn't know
No Claire
How old were you when you dated her older brother?
I was 17 at the time.
Oh, yeah, she would have been devastated.
How old are you now?
I am 30.
And you've never brought it up?
Never.
Can I ask, Claire, because you're obviously best friends with her,
so you would spend, are you still best friends with her?
Yes.
Okay, so you'd still spend a lot of time with her. Is it
awkward, like, when you see the
older brother? Oh my god, yes.
It's so awkward.
Brie's got a hot older brother. I imagine
this sort of scenario is playing out in the background of
a lot of her friendships. I think all
the time. Shut up. The number
of your friends. It's my younger brother
by the way. Who at least would have had dreams
about him. Yeah, you're one of them.
The curse of the hot brother. I'm not
afraid to say it.
Bree and Clint.
It's my birthday. It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger.
Alright, Birthday Banger for a Tuesday.
We'll take three people's birthdays. We'll figure out

It isn't fair.
Oh, it's Noel's name.
Mr Flavoursaver himself.
Shannon Noel.
Kelly, what do you think?
Did he win Australian Idol?
No, he came second.
He came second, yeah.
To Guy Sebastian.
In the first season of Australian Idol.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That song's iconic.
Kelly, you've got to love that one.
I love it. It's great. I didn't realise this song was a cover. Yeah. Yeah. That song's iconic. Kelly, you gotta love that one. I love it.
It's great. I didn't realise this song was a cover. So yeah, so he sang
this in like one of the earlier rounds
of Australian Idol.
Yeah. And then it went to the top of the charts.
His version. And he released it, yeah.
Buzzy. Okay, Kelly,

Thanks so much.
Have you had a good one so far?
Oh, it's been so good.
Oh, awesome.
Well, let's finish it off with the birthday banger.
So what year?
1992.
All right, so that means you were 16 in 2008. On this day, the 13th of October in 2008, this was number one.
Pink.
It's a good birthday banger.
Do you like it?
Do you like Pink?
Yes, I love Pink.
I love Pink.
She's great.
That song's awesome too.
That song was huge.
I know it's Abby's birthday,
but it's going to be very hard to go past one song in particular.
I can't go past Shannon.
What about me?
No, me neither.
Let's just do it.
Kelly, congratulations.
You've just won birthday banger.
Thank you.
Nolsey will be, his ears will prick up and he'll be like,
someone's playing my song again.
His flavour saver's going to start tingling.
There's a little boy waiting at the counter of a corner shop.
He's been waiting down there, waiting half the day.
They never ever see him from the top.
He gets pushed around, knocked to the ground.
He gets to his feet and he says,
What about me?
It isn't fair.
I've had enough.
Now I want my share.
Can't you see?
I want to live.
But you just take more than you give.
There's a pretty girl serving at the counter on the corner shop.
She's been waiting back there, waiting for a dream.
Her dreams walk in and out, they never stop.
Well, she's not too proud to cry out loud.
She runs to the street and she screams.
What about me?
It isn't fair.
Ah, that enough.
Now I want my share.
Can't you see?
I want to live.
But you just take more than you give
So take a step back and see the little people
They may be young but they're the ones
Who make the big people be
So listen as they whisper
What about me?
Now I'm standing on the corner
All the world's gone home
Nobody's changed
Nobody's been saved
And I'm feeling cold and alone
I guess I'm lucky
I smile a lot
But sometimes I wish for more
Than I've got
What about me?
It isn't fair
I've had enough
I want my share
Can't you see?
I wanna live
You just take more
What about me
It isn't fair
I've had enough
Now I want my share
Can't you see
I wanna live
You just take more
You just take more. You just take more.
You just take more than you give.
Zinian Bree and Clint.
What about me?
What about me?
The winner of Birthday Banger is Shannon Knoll.
What about me? Robbed. You bloody robbed. The winner of Birthday Banger is Shannon Knoll.
Robbed.
Bloody robbed.
Robbed by Guy Sebastian.
Guy Sebastian's hit record afterwards would tend to suggest otherwise.
But he goes, oh, bring up some other Shannon Knoll from the system.
Believe it or not, that's the only Shannon Knoll system we have in the entire company.
That's the only song.
That's the only one, yeah. He's the entire company. That's the only song? That's the only one, yeah.
Oh, he's got a bunch of other hits.
Does he?
What's that, producer Ben?
Yeah, I loaded Drive.
It's just in there for you.
Oh, you got it?
You got a bit of Shannon Noel Drive for us.
Here you go, okay.
It's not my fault, all right?
It is the music video, so I mean,
I don't know how long it's going to take to get in.
I had to load it quick.
We'll give it 15 seconds.
Okay.
There better not be any swear words on here.
Yeah, that is risky, I know.
I always skip the front of it too.
It's Shannon Oll. He's wholesome.
Is he?
No, well, I think he was in the beginning of his career.
Didn't he get in a fight outside a strip club last year?
Yeah, I mean, yes, but, you know, it happens to the best of us.
Come on, Shannon, hit the hook.
Come on.
Hit the hook.
Come on. What is going on? Must be a. Come on. Hit the hook. Come on.
What is going on?
Must be a long music video.
Hey, it is worth it.
This is like a classic pop song.
Hey!
Get up and help me, babe!
Come on!
Sounds like Police 10-7.
Oh, no.
It does sound like that.
All right.
Sorry, Shannon and Noel, you're not getting back on the ZM playlist today.
Oh, it's kicking in. Nick's on the show. Stop, Shannon Noel, you're not getting back on the ZM playlist today. Oh, it's kicking in.
Next on the show.
I have details of the most expensive house in Wellington ever.
Wellington's most expensive house.
What, in all of Wellington?
In all of Wellington.
The song's in.
Oh, it's still bad.
I think I've been watching a lot of Selling Sunset recently.
Have you watched it?
I watched it, binged it probably a couple of months ago.
Yeah.
In like three days.
It's a show that pretends to be about real estate,
but it's actually just about the women who are selling the houses.
It is literally The Hills, but a real estate version of The Hills.
Totally right.
They're selling like five, 10, 15, 20,
$40 million houses in the Hollywood Hills.
They sold a $50 or $60 million one too, I think.
Yeah.
Or they tried to.
The money's crazy.
And then I see a story today in the Herald
about New Zealand's, well,
Wellington's most expensive house ever.
And I'm like, yeah, love selling Sunset,
love looking at house prices.
Let me in here.
I've got to know what this is worth.
So the current record holder
for the most expensive house in Wellington
is a six bedroom house on Clive Road.
If you know Wellington.
I thought you were going to say the Beehive.
No.
It sold in March this year,
the current record holder for 5 $5.75 million.
Most expensive.
Most expensive.
The house which is looking to take the record in Wellington
for the most expensive house that's currently on sale is in Thorndon.
If you know your Wellington geography, it's number 48 Hobson Street.
Give out the details.
Well, it's for sale, you know, you might as well.
Well, yeah, you're giving them free advertising.
We may have some affluent ZDM listeners.
I tell you what, if you get a sale out of this,
I'm trying to see the agent's name,
Phil from Tommy's Real Estate.
Phil Mears.
Phil Mears.
I want a cut, all right?
Give us 10%, Phil.
Those who are interested, actually, I'll sell it to you first.
Hang on, I'll sell you on the house.
Okay, what's it got?
46 Hobson Street is a lovely heritage property.
It's over 100 years old.
It has five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and only two car parks.
It is currently on the market,
and they are looking for offers above $7.95 million.
Does it have a pool?
It's got a pool room, but no pool.
Does it have a pool? Nah, but to be room, but no pool. Does it have a pool?
Nah, but to be honest,
Oh, it's Wellington.
There's only about two days a year in Wellington where you can use the pool.
Tennis court?
Not from what I can see, no.
It's got an indoor conservatory where you can dine with your guests.
You're not impressed.
What would you be impressed with?
For $8 million, what would impress you?
A spa.
Oh, yeah.
Hot tub.
It might have a hot tub.
I reckon for that price, you could get them to chuck one in.
It's a beautiful home, though.
It is a beautiful home.
I'm looking at it.
It is stunning.
It should be.
It is the most expensive house in Wellington of all time.
And you might go, man, that's a lot of money,
but I thought I'd do a bit of research on some other big centres.
Is there a nightclub in there?
No, there's a bar.
It's got its own. It's a bar called Sin.
No, no, no.
That's the dining room.
That's the artwork they've chosen for the wall.
Oh, sorry.
There's no accounting for toast.
I was like, well, this is like Paris Hilton's house.
So $8 million is the most expensive house in Wellington.
How did some other places go?
So I went to Christchurch and I had a look.
The most expensive house in Christchurch is still being built.
It's in Fendleton.
Or as the residents of Fendleton like to say, Fendalten.
Fendalten.
It's a Z-shaped house which is worth $9.5 million.
Damn.
So Christchurch is the most expensive house.
MTV Cribs.
More expensive than Wellington's most expensive house.
Then I was like, come on.
I've seen houses in Auckland.
To be honest, isn't nine million the median house price
for an absolute ship?
I've seen rat-infested dungas selling for $1.5 million in Auckland.
If not more.
So I did some investigating,
and I found Auckland's most expensive house.
It's ridiculous here.
It's on a very fancy street called Paratai Drive.
Where's that?
It's in Oraki, which is down on the border,
on the way to Mission Bay.
This house is a seven-bedroom mansion.
Oh, big house.
With a tennis court.
Hot damn.
And a pool on the roof.
See, now we're talking pool, tennis court.
I think it also has a helipad.
And Auckland's most expensive house sold for, it's sold, it's not for sale.
It's sold.
$39 million.
So if you and your girlfriend and everyone you went to school with
and your parents and your workmates all pull your KiwiSaver together,
I reckon you can get close to maybe half of the deposit.
If you're lucky.
If you're lucky. If you're lucky.
That is insane.
I read this article that was talking about how they believe there's only one universal
word in the world across all different languages.
Oh, one word that we've got in common.
Yeah.
Right.
That's interesting.
Is it a swear word?
No, it's not a swear word.
But there was a bunch of year 12 students apparently
and they were pretty much looking into this kind of stuff
and they've kind of figured out this one particular word is universal
across all languages.
Yeah.
What do you think it is?
Well, I would have thought it was a swear word at first.
I thought maybe... Because is it over time?
Is it like this word has gone around the world?
Or is it a word that from the beginning
we all had this word in our languages?
I'm not exactly
sure. They reckon that researchers
have said,
well, they said that they didn't test
every single language, but they tested
quite a few languages.
This is the most universal. This is the most universal.
This is the most universal.
Is it no?
You would have thought it would have been, but it's not.
Yeah, right.
No, okay.
Then I don't know.
The word, one of the most universal words across all languages is huh?
Wait, that's not a word.
It is a word apparently. That's not a word. No, it's a word. It's a noise. Apparently's not a word. It is a word apparently.
That's not a word.
No, it's a word.
Apparently it's a word.
Huh?
Apparently it is a word.
Huh?
Yeah, huh.
Huh?
Huh?
Huh?
Huh?
Is that a...
That should be the word.
So I thought we could do something today.
Yeah.
A test.
So on the iPhone update recently, they have the Translate app.
Yeah.
That is automatically put onto your phone.
Anyway, I was having heaps of fun with this the other day.
But I thought, so essentially you can speak into the app
and then it translates it into another language.
Okay, cool.
So what's a sentence where I can finish it with huh?
Huh.
That's the thing.
Ha is a complete sentence.
Yeah, it is, isn't it?
Yeah.
Okay, I'll just say ha.
Yeah.
Okay, ready?
Ha?
U.
What language are you translating it into?
Italian.
Hold on, wait.
Let me see if this is working.
Clint just did a poo in his pants.
Clint ha appena fatto una cacca nei pantaloni.
Yeah,
it's working.
It's working.
It's changed it though.
Ha.
Ah.
Ah.
Oh no,
it's not picking up.
Ha.
Ah.
What do you want
translated?
Nothing.
I just want you
to keep doing this.
Okay, hold on.
Wait one more time.
Go on.
Huh?
So that's what it translates it to.
O-H.
U-H.
Right.
All right.
Well.
Turns out that article's a liar.
There's been a list released of the most popular songs to Indoor garden to for the first time, if you know what I mean.
Your very first indoor gardening session.
The survey has been done by a website called OnBuy, which I have no idea what they are.
It's some online shopping site.
But it seems credible enough.
They sent out an email to as many people as they had on their database, and they got 8,000 answers.
How old are they talking, though?
Like, how old are the people?
It doesn't say.
It doesn't say.
Anyone who would reply to the email, I think.
You know, this could be all over the shop.

What is number one?
The number one song that 8,000 people responded to
and they said this is the song that was playing
when I indoor gardened for the very first time
was from a little known artist called Sierra and Body Party.
Brie has said to me before, am I allowed to say it?
Yeah, you can say it.
Brie said that the music video to this song.
No, it wasn't this song.
Was it not this one?
It was Ride It.
Oh, Ride It. Ride, or I think it's called Ride.
The Sierra music video
made her realise
things about which way
she was inclined.
And I watched the music video
and it confirmed
which way I was inclined
as well, to be honest.
Oh, it confirms.
If you're wondering
about yourself,
watch that video
and it's going to make you
confirm one way or the other.
