Good, vibe check from you. Producer Ben, vibe check? Alright, it's pretty good, mate. Yeah, good. Producer Anastasia, vibe check? She's not even there. Where is she?
Starting point is 00:00:17 She fails the vibe check. Yeah, she shot off somewhere again. Yeah, right. I'm just catching up on my Dance Mums content. Dance Mums? Yeah Have you ever watched it? Nah
Starting point is 00:00:27 That's where like Maddie Zelniger Or whatever Ziegler Ziegler Yeah Is that her name? Yeah
Starting point is 00:00:33 The one who Ziegler I think it is Ziegler The one who danced for Sia And do you know Jojo Siwa came from there too? Oh my god You don't know who that is
Starting point is 00:00:41 I do know Jojo Siwa You're about to Because you've got a daughter Nah she's not going to watch Jojo Siwa. I find Jojo... Am I allowed to say I find Jojo... You can say it. Creepy.
Starting point is 00:00:50 Why? Because she's not as young as she's... How old is she? Age game, Jojo Siwa. I want to say she's 18. Hold up. Yeah, exactly right. Jojo Siwa.
Starting point is 00:01:02 Yeah, but isn't the character she plays is like a – Oh, yeah, I know who she is. She plays like a – Oh, no, she's 17. Yeah, right. Yeah, I know who she is. She's making a shit ton of money. Yeah, that's okay.
Starting point is 00:01:13 But why do you think she's – Okay, I get what people are saying. There's a few things where I'm like, you could dial it back a little bit. I haven't watched much of her stuff, but it seems like it's quite babyish what she's doing. But she's like – Yeah, but she's like... Yeah, but she's a child entertainer. Whereas, I mean, do you find the Wiggles creepy? No, because they're children's entertainers.
Starting point is 00:01:33 They entertain children. Yeah, so is she. Yeah. It's the same thing. I'm in too deep. I don't have enough facts for this argument, so I'm tapping out. I get what you're saying.
Starting point is 00:01:40 I get what you're saying, but I think she gets a bit of a bad rap. I don't know much about it, but... Oh, she's here. Vibe check, Anastasia. Hello. What do you think of Jojo Siwa? Oh, I don't want to judge.
Starting point is 00:01:53 I feel like she gets a lot of judgment. She does, doesn't she? And I don't want to be that person that comes out here and goes, she's too old to be acting and dressing like that. But, yeah, I probably wouldn't want my kids idolising her. Yeah, right. I just think she's a kid's entertainer. While you're away, the things you just said that you don't want to say
Starting point is 00:02:12 is basically exactly what I said. Oh, really? Yeah. Well, this might change your mind because I know you're money hungry. Her net worth is $12 million at the moment. Yeah, all right. So you'd be whacking on a tutu. How young can I pass for?
Starting point is 00:02:28 How young can I pass for? Yeah, you'd be whacking on a tutu and dancing around. Don't get me wrong. I would do what she does. I think that it's an honest profession. And you can. I believe in you. You probably could do it.
Starting point is 00:02:38 I always wanted to be a What Now presenter. Oh, yeah. That was my childhood dream. Everyone on the radio at some stage wanted to be a What Now presenter. Sorry. For me, a 22-year-old woman. Yeah, Jojo Siwa. The dream's not open.
Starting point is 00:02:50 Oh, over. No, it's not over. Is this a Jojo Siwa song? Yeah, it's just in the background. Yeah, turn it up. Get it, girl. It's very Disney. Yeah, but that's what
Starting point is 00:03:05 Hannah Montana was Nah Hannah Montana Had more sass than this After like Many seasons I've never seen Hannah Montana
Starting point is 00:03:15 Yeah What She was styley And awesome From day dot I mean I love Hannah Montana Thank you
Starting point is 00:03:20 I'm not saying I didn't like it But I'm just saying Jojo Siwa has her plus Hang on You're freaked out That I've never seen Hannah Montana. You should be more freaked out if I have watched Hannah Montana.
Starting point is 00:03:29 Why? What am I doing as a 32-year-old man? What part of my previous 10 years would it be normal for me to sit down to a big evening of Hannah Montana? You could have been babysitting. But, I mean, it was so massive. Yeah. No, no, I'm aware of it. It's entered my popular vernacular.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Do you know who Hannah Montana was? Turns out she was actually Miley Cyrus dressed up in costume. You... Yeah. I know. Sorry. Is this a podcast? My mind is blown as well.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Spoiler alert, I was just about to tuck into the back catalogue. Apparently, she'd put a blonde wig on and we just wouldn't recognise it. Yeah, right. Ben, please turn Jojo Siwa off. She just released a brand new song. Please. Last week. Have you seen her car?
Starting point is 00:04:13 Yeah, go Jojo. Her car has like a million of her own faces on it. She's got Diamantes and shit all over it. Yeah, but it's like a C-class, probably like half a million dollar Mercedes. Yeah, right. Like almost as nice as Clint's car. Clint would take the Diamante car. Yeah, no, but Clint's car is the top of the range model.
Starting point is 00:04:31 So I bet it doesn't have the full luggage source package. I would walk before I drove a car with Diamantes on it. No, you wouldn't. If someone goes, here's a G-Wagon, but it's covered in Diamantes, you go, sign me up for the Diamantes. I don't know if I would. Yes, diamantes. I don't know if I would. Yes, you would. I don't know if I would.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Also. It's too blinged out. I always find it weird the word diamantes. Does anyone even? Vajazzled. Diamante. It's called diamante. Dolphins.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Where are the dolphins? Have you ever had a vajazzling? Diamante. We've got one minute 20, by the way, if there's anything important to say. To be honest, actually, I feel like sometimes Jojo's Seaworth hairstyles could be... Did you guys see James Charles completely made her over to look like...
Starting point is 00:05:17 Well, to be honest, she's 17. Are we this kind of radio show? I'm just going to put this out there, and then we can stew on this and whether we're that kind of radio show or not. We put our names on a wheel, we spin the wheel, and the loser has to go and get a vajazzling done.
Starting point is 00:05:30 You need a vagina to get it done. Okay, a pajazzling or a vajazzling. No, you get a crackerjazzling. Crackerjazzling. No, you get a goojazzling. Goojazzling. Yeah, you get a goojazzling. A sajazzling.
Starting point is 00:05:41 Yeah. A force jazzling. I'm keen. I'm keen. I'm keen. I've wanted a bit of bling on my old... Have you? I, um... Clint's going to get some bling on his ding-a-ling.
Starting point is 00:05:51 I had some maintenance for the podcast intro, but we've actually run out of time. That's right, mate. So, um... Do it next time. Remind me tomorrow, Ben. Podcast intro maintenance. Wait, no, but we've got birthday bang.
Starting point is 00:06:03 Oh, can we do... Do we do two things? We've got to go! We've got to go. We've got to go, Anastasia. Hey, Google. What's the time? It's 3pm. Give or take a minute.

Kia ora, everybody. Happy... What day is it 4, 3, 2, 1. Kia ora everybody. Happy, what day is it? Thursday. Happy Thursday everybody.
Starting point is 00:06:28 Only one afternoon to go till Friday. Good to have you here. Good, oh man, good there's no political debates today. Why? Oh, because it was a hectic day. God, it was exhausting yesterday, wasn't it? Yeah, it was. Watching them yell at each other all day.
Starting point is 00:06:42 I didn't realise, so how many, is it every four years for America? Yeah. And it's every three years here? Yeah. Why is it three? I don't know. They want to change it to four. It should be four.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Last night, Judith and Jacinda both agreed that it should be every four years. It costs too much money to have it every three years. Yeah, and you can't get enough done in three years time.
Starting point is 00:06:59 No. I thought they should have just leaned over the podiums and just done a handshake and gone, okay, it's four. Done. We both agree it's four.
Starting point is 00:07:04 Yeah. Or touch elbows, whatever you do in COVID. Yeah. Oh, hey, by the way, it is Thursday and I know you might not think of us as being very forward thinking and planning ahead on this show, but we are and we'd like to get your dinner sorted for tomorrow night with pizza. If you text Pizza Hut to 9696 right now, Pizza Hut could be delivering a triple value deal to your door on Friday night. We've got 10 of these to give away.
Starting point is 00:07:29 That's right. Tomorrow night, dinner will be sorted. You don't have to worry about it. Who wants to sort out dinner on Friday night? In that pizza deal, you get three large classic pizzas plus two sides and all delivered to your door. For Friday night dinner, if you want that, Pizza Hut to your door. For Friday night dinner, if you want that pizza space hut
Starting point is 00:07:46 to 9696. Sorry to talk to you like you're a big dummy. I just don't want you to get it wrong. I don't want you to miss out. Next on the show, speaking of the leaders debate, I've actually got a game for us to play. Oh no. If you saw the debate, you'll be fine
Starting point is 00:08:02 with this. Actually, even if you didn't see the debate, you'll be fine with this. It's an incredibly you didn't see the debate, you'll be fine with this. It's an incredibly easy game. Okay, I'm in then. Oh, wait, do you have an opinion? Most of the time, yeah. Then you're going to be fine. Okay, good.
Starting point is 00:08:17 In this game that we're going to play next, after LAB, this is In The Air. Bree and Clint, ZM. Bree and Clint. Who saw the debate last night? I saw it. If you say yes, you sound politically engaged, intelligent, and a little bit boring. Yeah, a little bit.
Starting point is 00:08:35 A little bit boring. A little bit old. Yeah, a little bit old. But it's good to know what you're voting for. 100%. There was a question in the debate last night which I found kind of interesting and I thought we could bring that to the show today. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:08:47 So Paddy Gower put this to Judith and Jacinda. We've all seen plenty of Dr Ashley Bloomfield this year. Could you quickly both describe him in one word? And I'll start with you, Judith Collins. One word for Ashley Bloomfield. I've never actually met him, but I think he's competent. Competent. Jacinda Ardern, one word for Ashley Bloomfield. Considered never actually met him, but I think he's competent. Competent. Jacinda Ardern, one word for Ashley Bloomfield.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Considered. Yeah, good. See? That was... Can you explain to me what... I sound dumb. Considered. Yeah, like, what does she mean by that?
Starting point is 00:09:14 Sorry, it's 2020. You actually have to ask me to mansplain it to you before I mansplain it. Just tell me what it is. I'm not asking you to mansplain anything to me ever. Considered means he thinks about what he says before he says it. He doesn't just spit off the top of his dome and he's like, I fixed COVID.
Starting point is 00:09:31 You know, he considers what he says before it. Is it like calculated? Yeah, but calculated's got negative connotations. I don't mind someone who's calculated. Calculated's more like, oh, cold and calculated. I feel like they're organised. Anyway, I thought we could get a stand in Paddy Gower, and that's what I've brought producer Ben in.
Starting point is 00:09:47 He's going to be our Paddy Gower. G'day, Paddy. Yeah, he's been researching weed before this segment as well. Have you? Just like Paddy Gower. Yeah, I have, and it might be a slow debate. And he's going to put some one-word answer questions to us. I will, yes.
Starting point is 00:10:00 So let's do it. So this will be a lot like last night's debate, guys, but a little bit different. I'll give you a countdown from three, and you'll both be required to say the word that best describes the question at the same time. At the same time. Okay, good.
Starting point is 00:10:15 I like this. Oh, no, that's no time to think about something. No time. It means we can't copy each other. Question number one. A lot like the debate last night, I'll ask you the same question Paddy asked them. So for your first question,
Starting point is 00:10:27 in one word, quickly both describe Ashley Bloomfield. Three, two, one. Hot. Tasty. Yeah, good. That is a tasty day. Tasty, hot, sumptuous. Daddy.

Daddy Sorry too many words Yeah sorry mate Just one Question number two We talked about it last week Off the back of the nominations For New Zealander of the Year

Starting point is 00:11:16 Here in Auckland And directly affects Both of you guys And a lot of people Travelling to work In one word Quickly both describe The current feeling you have
Starting point is 00:11:24 Towards the Auckland Harbour Bridge Okay Three Two One Okay. Three, two, one. Irrelevant. What was yours, Bree? What was yours? Schmozzle. Schmozzle. I like calling it irrelevant because that's what you say about things that you're angry about.
Starting point is 00:11:40 You go, oh, they're irrelevant. Yeah. Oh, is it? The bridge is incredibly relevant. It is. Build the tunnel. We all want a tunnel. With no bridge, they're irrelevant. Yeah. Oh, is it? The bridge is incredibly relevant. It is. Build the tunnel. We all want a tunnel. With no bridge, no North Shore.
Starting point is 00:11:48 Oh, unless you go all the way around. Yeah, you can go around. Start a new city, North Shore. Question number four. During lockdown, home cooking and baking seemed to be what everyone was doing and posting online. In one word, quickly both describe to me your favourite lockdown meal. Three, two,
Starting point is 00:12:06 one. Parmigiana. Chippies. From a bag. Oh no, can I change mine? Quickly. Beer. Beer. A meal in a bottle. It's a meal in a bottle. Final question.
Starting point is 00:12:21 A few weeks ago, Clint wore a Wallabies jersey because Bree's mum, Mama Di, made a bet that if he wore it for a whole week, she'd donate to charity. In one word, quickly both describe to me how that made you feel. Three, two, one. Elated. Actually, like Trump, can we get the tax receipts to see if your mum's donated that money?
Starting point is 00:12:46 Yeah, that's a good point, actually. She is a dodgy woman. If she's cheated out on her charity, oh, I tell you what. I think they should do the next debate like this. With the answer at the same time. Yeah, and I love how... They all actually kind of did. I love how last night when Patti Gower was like one-word responses
Starting point is 00:13:01 and Judith Collin gave like a three-word response. Bree and Clint. How do you think you went with maths at school? Oh, not great. I was horrific. Yeah. I just never clicked. I did the easiest one and I think got a B minus.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Yeah, I just didn't. It was never something that I felt natural in. No. Like I never was like, oh yeah. I hated how there was only one answer. You know, whereas like in English. You want to be able to argue your answer. Multiple answers in an English course.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Yeah, I loved English. Well, it's interesting because this mum has taken to Facebook because she's like, I am so confused by my seven-year-old's maths homework. I'm terrified of the day that Tilly brings her homework home to me and she realises that I'm a big dummy because I can't help her. Good luck with that. You start doing all of her homework and she comes back and she's like, Dad, I got a D. And you're like, damn it, that's me that's getting a D. Anyway, this woman shared a picture of this one maths question from her daughter. And she's like, can anyone help me with this?
Starting point is 00:14:05 I really don't understand. Anyway, so I thought we could test it out on you. Yeah, let's do it. Pretty simple, seven-year-old maths question. You should have no problems. So it says, Carla says, I have 300 counters. Yep. 17 tens counters and 16 ones counters. Yep. 17 tens counters and 16 ones counters.
Starting point is 00:14:30 How many ones? 16 ones counters. Yep. Right, and then it goes on to say, A, can she make two equal three-digit numbers? Question mark. If so, draw the counters to show them. Can she make two equal three-digit numbers?
Starting point is 00:14:54 Okay, so she's got 17 tens, which add up to 170. Yes, I would assume. She's got 16 ones, which add up to 16. Yep. Which means she has a total of 186. 86. 186, is that what you're saying? Yeah. Can she get two three-digit amounts from that? That's the question.
Starting point is 00:15:17 Two equal three-digit amounts. Three-digit numbers. Oh, wait, she's got 300 counters though. 17 of them are tens and 16 of them are ones. Well, what are the rest? What are the rest of them? She's got
Starting point is 00:15:35 300. Read me the question again. 300 counters. Oh no, wait, let's move on from that one because there's another part. No, I've got it. I think I've got it. Okay, you've got it. The answer is yes because the 17s and the 10s are irrelevant and the 16 and the 1s are irrelevant. She's got 300 counters.
Starting point is 00:15:53 Yes, she can split those in half and she can have two piles of 150. I think the answer's actually two piles of 186. How? Isn't it? How would it be two piles of 186? Well, it says here... What's the correct answer? It says here that the correct answer...
Starting point is 00:16:14 She wrote the first one, it's 172. So how the hell did she get that? Even with the answer, I don't understand. Okay, there's a second part. You want to try the second part? Yeah. B. Can she make two equal three-digit numbers
Starting point is 00:16:34 if she had to use all of her counters? If so, draw the counters to show them. I don't know. It says, yes, Carla can make two equal three-digit numbers as 486 is an even number and she can be divided by two, which equals 243. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:54 If that made sense to anybody, please text us on 9696. And are you a physicist? That's a seven-year-old maths homework. You must have asked it wrong because I'm definitely smarter than a seven-year-old. You must have mucked that up. I would debate that. No, you must have. No, it's not me, mate.
Starting point is 00:17:11 I should have been able to read it, not hear it from you. All right. We worked out the seven-year-old's maths equation, by the way. No, we didn't work it out. No, we didn't. People on the text machine helped us. I said it was your fault. I said it was your fault. I said it was your fault.
Starting point is 00:17:26 It's not my fault. There weren't 300 counters. I said 300s. Can you get a replay? Please produce a man. There were three 100 counters, and then there were 17 10 counters, and then there were 16 one counters. Stop mansplaining my own question to me.
Starting point is 00:17:41 I'm not mansplaining it. You are. You're like, listen to me. I'm not mansplaining it. You are. You're like, listen to me. I'm not mansplaining it to you. I'm mansplaining it to the whole country. Open your women's ears. From iHeartRadio. This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Open your woman ears. Listen to me. Hey, Dean McCarthy's not here at the moment, but we've got Borat news. Brie mentioned last week that Borat's new movie is about to come out, Borat Gift of Pornographic Monkey to Vice Premier Mikael Pence. That is the name of the movie. There's some more details on it. He's going to release it just before the US presidential election.
Starting point is 00:18:21 Smart. Yeah, it focuses on the situation in America around Donald Trump. Mm-hmm. And I'm assuming that the pornographic monkey gift to Premier Mikael Pence is Vice President Mike Pence. Yes.
Starting point is 00:18:32 I'm assuming so. Yeah. He's gonna... So it's gonna cause some controversy. He's probably gonna have to go, like, full underground after this.
Starting point is 00:18:40 He's probably not in the country, to be fair. No, I wouldn't be able to see him. He wouldn't be going back to the UK. Yeah. Interestingly, it's not coming out in cinemas. It's not not in the country, to be fair. No, I wouldn't be able to see it. It would be going back to the UK. Yeah. Interestingly, it's not coming out in cinemas.
Starting point is 00:18:47 It's not going to be released in theatres. Not a lot of theatres in the States are open at the moment because of the COVID pandemic. So Amazon Prime have bought the rights to it.
Starting point is 00:18:55 Oh, smart. And the movie is going to be a streaming release. A bit like Mulan was. Yeah, and then people pay for it and you watch it at home. Yeah. So Amazon Prime
Starting point is 00:19:04 is what you're going to need if you want to watch the new Borat film. Interesting. I'm definitely going to watch it. I don't want to have all these streaming services, though. Amazon Prime's good. Can people just join them all into one? Or is there...
Starting point is 00:19:16 Oh, I know. Yeah. I'm going to come up with a company that allows you to do that. You pay a little bit extra, but you get all of them in one. Copyright. Okay. Copyrighted. Yeah, it does, okay.
Starting point is 00:19:31 Or you just pay for them all. No. And then it just debits your card and you never think about it. Anyway, that's the latest. It's brought to you by Pump Sparkling. You can get that fresh feeling with Pump Sparkling.
Starting point is 00:19:41 Berry and lime with no sugar. Bree and Clint. Saw a post from Jacinda Ardern on her Instagram this week where she put up a picture of Neve's lunchbox. I saw this. Yeah. Very relatable. Oh, she's good at the relatable stuff.
Starting point is 00:19:53 And she wrote on it this. She wrote, Clark was up early this morning. When I came out to the kitchen, I found a lunchbox and he had labelled it for Neve. And it was packed and ready to go. I've been off campaigning. He's been parenting. This is just an appreciation post.
Starting point is 00:20:07 It takes a village, everybody. Yeah, that's really lovely. I noticed something unusual. Yeah? It was a Tupperware container, not really a lunchbox. Did you notice that? Oh, yeah, like a Systema thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Yeah. Like when I think of lunchbox for kids, I think of, you know. Yeah, but they've just used what they've got on hand, even more relatable. More relatable. See, that's where they get know. Yeah, but they've just used what they've got on hand. Even more relatable. More relatable. See, that's where they get you. Yeah. It got me thinking about lunches, though.
Starting point is 00:20:30 And which parent usually makes the lunch? Who made your lunch when you were a kid? No one. No one made your lunch? Pretty much not. I'm not going to lie. My mum. And she was horrible at remembering to make lunches.
Starting point is 00:20:43 Really? Like, we would get up in the morning and the bus would be there. I'd be like, mum, where's my lunch? She'd be like, shit, here's $1.65. Get something from the tuck shop. I don't imagine your mum being a bad lunch maker. She was like top notch in every single category of being a mum. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:58 Except for making lunches. Are you sure or are you having selective memory? No, I'm pretty sure. Your mum? I think she would agree. Really? So if we called her right now, she would agree? That's an awkward phone call.
Starting point is 00:21:10 She would agree that she was, in your words, a shit lunchmaker? I hope she's busy right now. Your poor mum. I disagree. I've never talked to her about this as an adult. It's a very passive-aggressive way to bring up issues you have with your own upbringing. I said she was amazing at everything else except for that. But she never fed you.
Starting point is 00:21:30 Not at lunchtime. She was bad. This is going to be awkward. You have to put it to her. I'm not going to upset her. All right. Hello? Mum.
Starting point is 00:21:40 Yes, Brianna. How are you going? Good. Clint's here as well. Hi, Mumadai. Hi, Clint. How are you?? Good. Clint's here as well. Hi, Mama Di. Hi, Clint. How are you, beautiful boy? Yeah, good, thank you.
Starting point is 00:21:49 Anyway, no time for the niceties. Moving on. Look, Jacinda Ardern's in the news today because she put a post on her Instagram about how her partner, Clark, makes their daughters lunches. Yeah. Anyway, we started talking about who made our lunches in our families and I said you were horrible at it. Oh, Brianna.
Starting point is 00:22:12 Dead income. Be honest, Mum. I didn't believe her, by the way, and I said if you're going to slander that woman's good name on network radio, she deserves a right of reply. Now, I imagine you got up early and you had Bree's lunch ready for her every slack once I got into high school. I got a bit over it. Used to be a bit of lunch money used to go in the box. What did I say?
Starting point is 00:22:38 She would sling us like $1.65 and she'd be like, have a good day. You got a bit over it. Wasn't Bree at boarding school when she was at high school anyway? You got rid of me real early. See, I'm telling you, you weren't good, Mum. Everything else, 10 out of 10. No, I wasn't good, I have to admit. And I reckon go for it.
Starting point is 00:22:57 Jacinta's got a winner there. I reckon she should stick with me. You're talking about Jacinta. She should stick with Clark. I can understand why you would get over making Bree's lunch. That's totally understandable. Just tell me and promise me you never missed a day making hot Aidan's lunch. That boy was raised right.
Starting point is 00:23:13 She would cook him hot meals in the overnight cooker, and she'd make him rice and naan breads fresh off the stove. And then I would come home, and she'd be like, here's $ dollar sixty-five go get yourself something from the table. I can tell, that boy's never missed a meal in his life. Alright Mum and Dad, good to talk to you
Starting point is 00:23:34 thanks so much. Yeah, bye Mum. Love you. Love you too. Love you. Bye. Bree and Clint. Big news in the social media world apparently Facebook and Instagram are looking at merging the two direct messenger features. So obviously you know how you have an inbox on Instagram
Starting point is 00:23:54 and you've got messenger for Facebook. They're saying that they're going to make them into one message box stream. I don't think I want that. I don't know if I want that either. No. It becomes confusing. I like that they're separate. And they're very different kinds of messages.
Starting point is 00:24:07 Yeah. Like the Instagram inbox, mostly for sharing memes, I find. You just DM each other memes on there. Yeah, that's it, memes. Whereas Facebook Messenger is for everything. You talk about everything. Like I don't even have some of my flatmate's numbers. I talk to my mum on Messenger.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Yeah, you use it for everything. You can call. Our work chat is on Messenger. You call on Facebook Messenger, which you don't on Messenger. Yeah, you use it for everything. You can call. Our work chat is on Messenger. You call on Facebook Messenger, which you don't on Instagram. Yeah. Well, I don't anyway. It's also interesting to see that there's an option that they're looking into where you're going to be able to watch a video with someone whilst on a call.
Starting point is 00:24:40 Watch a video with someone while on a call. So you'll be able to. So say you're on facebook messenger and you're video chatting yeah um or you can bring a video into the chat yeah like a facebook video oh weird that's cool eh yeah um and then they also said uh that you'll be able to like screen mirror your screen i think yeah and so if you're like, oh, I need you to look at this. Oh, like you do in Zoom. Yes.
Starting point is 00:25:06 Like someone can put up the screen in Zoom. Yeah, so it says here, as well as cross-platform messaging, there will be cross-platform scrolling with users being able to search for profiles across both apps at the same time as well. Yeah, buzzy. As long as they don't merge Facebook and Instagram news feed. Oh, that's weird.
Starting point is 00:25:24 I don't want boomers in my Instagram feed, you know? Yeah. We had this conversation earlier. If they're going to combine the inboxes of those two, controversial idea. I look at them as different. They're different things. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:36 And they've got a different level of importance. What's the hierarchy of messages? Like what message do you give the most priority to? And I'm talking so messenger, Instagram DM, text message, email. Email, yep. And are there any others we need to include in there? WhatsApp. WhatsApp.
Starting point is 00:25:58 WhatsApp's a bit niche. Not everyone's on WhatsApp. I like WhatsApp. A lot of people have WhatsApp. Especially if you have people like loved ones overseas. All right, WhatsApp's in. Okay. Email, IG, DM, Messenger, text and email.
Starting point is 00:26:13 Did I say email? Yeah, you said email. WhatsApp. I think text message is probably the one that I always reply to. Text message, weirdly, still carries like a serious amount of importance. I think it's like number one. If it's important, you text them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:29 Yeah. And read receipts have made that better. Keep people accountable. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. All right. Text message.
Starting point is 00:26:36 We'll go text message number one. So we've done the top. What do you think is the least? What's at the bottom? Yeah. Instagram DM. You reckon? Don't Instagram DM me if it's important.
Starting point is 00:26:46 That's how I look at it. Right. Instagram DM is just for fun. Yeah. Usually I think you Instagram message someone if it's off the back of one of their stories or you're commenting on a post or... Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Yeah. Actually, I'll put one below that. Snapchat. Oh, yeah. Snapchat's at the bottom. My sister's Snapchat messaged me something important the other day. It's like the address to a wedding or something.
Starting point is 00:27:07 It was like, I'm not coming over, can you let mum and dad know? And I didn't see it until the next day. Yeah, you're not checking. Because I'm not checking Snapchat, it's not 2017. Yeah. So, okay, Snapchat at the bottom, then IG DM and text at the top. Where does Messenger sit?
Starting point is 00:27:23 Yeah, second. Messenger is second? Yeah, I use Messenger for a lot. So is email in the middle? Email is somewhere in the middle. Somewhere in the middle. Yeah. Yeah, right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:32 You don't even know the password to your email. I'll remember it one day. You will not. Yes, I will. If I ever want to give you anything important. It's only like my work email, so nothing important is coming in there, right? I just ask you what's going on.
Starting point is 00:27:46 And then I text it to you. Yeah. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint's Pumped Up with Pumped Sparkling. Yeah, thanks to the new Park Sparkling Berry and Lime, we're giving away free cash. All you've got to do is tell us to stop before we pump it up too much. It just makes me feel fresh, this whole thing.
Starting point is 00:28:05 I like it. It makes you feel fresh. It does. Like this song. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm just ready to go. Ashley's here. Hi, Ashley.
Starting point is 00:28:11 G'day, Ash. Oh, my God, that's me. Hi. Hi. Welcome, Ashley. Are you feeling lucky today? I'm very lucky, yeah. Good.
Starting point is 00:28:20 We want you to win the most money possible, okay? Okay. Woo! The trick is holding on as long as possible before you say stop without holding on too long because if the bubble bursts before you say stop, you're going home with nothing, okay? Yep, don't change. So I reckon the best way to do it, Ash,
Starting point is 00:28:37 is get a number in your mind of what you'd be happy with and try and get to that and straight after, yell stop. Okay. All right. Good luck. Here it comes. Nice and loud with the stop when you're ready. You got to bump it up.
Starting point is 00:28:52 $50. $100. $135. $145. $190. $260 $300 I reckon she got nailed it on the $300. Yeah, you've nailed it on $300, Ash.
Starting point is 00:29:16 Congratulations. $300. Crushed it. Do you want to see how far it could have went? Yeah, let's go. All right, let's figure it out. Good luck. Well, good luck.
Starting point is 00:29:26 You've got it now. Let's see what you missed out on. $315. That's nothing. $335. A little bit more. $390. $425.
Starting point is 00:29:43 Oh, that's not too bad at all, Ash. That's not too bad. About $120 difference. Pretty good. But you've got $300 cash. Congratulations. Woo! Thank you.
Starting point is 00:29:53 I like you. You've got great energy. Yeah. You like getting pumped up? Get Ashley there as your hot girl. Oh, yeah. We're going to get pumped up one more time tomorrow if you want to win. We'll do it around the same time, I think, tomorrow

I don't think it would be Ellen's cup of tea, with me, Annabel Lee-Mather, and Ben Thomas, careering wildly from the very serious to the very ridiculous. It's not for everyone. I don't think it would be Ellen's cup of tea, but you, I reckon, will love it. Gone by lunchtime. Grab one now wherever you get your podcasts. Keeping up to date with the news just became a little easier.

Listen to The Front Page at nzherald.co.nz slash podcasts and follow us on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts. Bree and Clint. In this job, Clint, we read the news a lot.
Starting point is 00:31:11 We have to be up to date with, you know, what's happening in the world. On the pulse. And usually, you know, it's a lot of light, fun stories. But I came across this one story that's really riled me up a little bit. Okay. It's annoyed me quite a lot actually and it's to do with facebook and it's about um it's actually an aussie company who make products for females when that when they're on their period yeah it's about the new chocolate huh
Starting point is 00:31:38 chocolate no it's about this the new type of underwear and there's amazing new zealand companies as well who are making these which which I'll get to in a second. But this company is called Modibodi and essentially it's where they make period underwear. More sustainable, cheaper for women and it's just a great product. Anyway, I'm not sure when they put this ad campaign out, but this company put this ad campaign out advertising the product essentially what's happened is when they put this on facebook the ad um facebook has decided that they would remove the ad as it's breached the guidelines of prohibited content what are the guidelines so i looked that up says ads must not contain shocking, sensational, inflammatory or excessively violent content.
Starting point is 00:32:28 That's what the Facebook advertising policies page says. I've never had my period, but I don't think it's any of those things. Well, in the ad, I'm not going to lie. I think it was a real refreshing take on advertising a period product because it was really like just showed i don't know the reality true it does depend on on the content of the ad i guess yeah and how the product is one thing but the way you advertise it as another it showed the reality of what it's actually like for us females 50 of the population and something that happens to us every month yeah um and it showed the reality of that okay stuff that happens anyway Anyway, I completely disagree with this.
Starting point is 00:33:06 I think it's so outdated that they would go this far as to take off this piece of content when they can't even regulate other content that's on their platform. I'm not going to go there, but like the Christchurch, what happened in Christchurch, and they couldn't even regulate that, but they're going after people like this.
Starting point is 00:33:24 They can't take down hate speech, but they can take a stand against period undress. Yeah, yeah. It's just ridiculous. Really good point. And I'm so sick of the conversation around, you know, female menstruation being so, like, taboo and whatever, and this isn't helping.
Starting point is 00:33:39 But I also think it's because I read that New Zealand brand, and I'll give them a shout out here, Awa. They've talked about it because they have a really good product called the Eva Brief, which they make the exact same products. The period undies, right? Period undies. And the founder, Michelle Wilson, has now said after seeing that their campaign got taken down,
Starting point is 00:34:00 we're rethinking what we can put on social media now. Right, I see. But the less we bring it to light and talk about, you know, the reality of what it's like, it's going to continue to be a taboo subject. It was really interesting in the debate last night, hearing Judith and Jacinda talk about it as well, because they talked about period poverty in New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:34:20 And Patti said to them, will you subsidise sanitary products for women? Jacinda said yes. No, she said no because she said you're just subsidising the companies that make them, which was a really good point. She said we want to focus on putting free products in schools, which is a great way of starting. Which is awesome because no child should have to go through that at all.
Starting point is 00:34:43 But I think this is where it comes in that this product is something that's sustainable for women. But then Facebook, companies like Facebook are going, no, we're going to take down your advertising. Yeah, it's a bit rough. Because it's showing what it's really like. But you see what's happened? What?
Starting point is 00:34:55 Everyone's talking about it. And that's why I wanted to talk about it this afternoon. Yeah. Because I think it's wrong and I think the less we talk about, you know, periods and people get uncomfortable and whatever, it's a real thing. 50% of us have it, you know. We get it every month. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:10 It's a real thing. Get on board. Support these companies that are making amazing products and really helping females because that's what it's all about. There you go. Yeah. Bree and Clint. This is Drax Project on ZM.
Starting point is 00:35:23 Bree and Clint. Once upon a time, thereie and Clint. This is Drax Project on ZM. Imoeroa. Brie and Clint. Once upon a time, there was a girl. She was smart, debatable, talented, athletic. Not really. Picking a movie based on just the plot line? That she can do. Brie and Clint's What's the Plot?
Starting point is 00:35:48 Alright, let's go, baby. Let's get this thing on. $350 of mobile fuel up for grabs this afternoon. If Laura, you can take down Brie in What's the Plot. Good afternoon. Hello. Hi, how's it going? Have you played before, Laura, in the car? In the car, yes. And how'd you go?
Starting point is 00:36:04 Sometimes good, sometimes not so good. Oh, that makes me nervous. You need two correct answers before Bree gets two correct answers to take out the game. And this week, because of what's going on in the world right now, the theme for What's the Plot is movies that feature the president. Oh, no. Okay? Movies that feature the president. Oh, no. Okay. Movies that feature the president.
Starting point is 00:36:28 Okay. Laura, your buzzer is your name, and you don't need to wait for me to finish the plot line before you yell it out and have a guess. Good luck, everybody. Movie number one. A geek, a pilot, and the US president and a group of ragtag survivors
Starting point is 00:36:46 unite to save mankind from annihilation as an alien race... Bree. Independence Day. Independence Day... is correct. Yes! Will Smith. Love Will Smith.
Starting point is 00:37:05 Okay. Can't say I've seen it recently, though. No, great movie, though. Yeah, it is a good movie. Great movie. Okay, movie number two. Laura, you need this one, okay? You need this to stay in the game.
Starting point is 00:37:15 All right, we've got this. You've got this. I believe in you. Movie number two. Capitol Police Officer John. Bree. Bree. Yes! White House Down
Starting point is 00:37:28 White House Down is correct Did you know that Laura? I think I did yeah We're chatting Tatum Yeah and Jamie Foxx is the President She's done it I was on my bed again Sorry Laura
Starting point is 00:37:42 Yeah you crushed that one You really strong armed her Sorry Laura not this week Which means next week we'll play for $400 I'm happy with that She's done it. That was one of my better games. Sorry, Laura. Yeah, you crushed that one. You really strong-armed her. Sorry, Laura, not this week, which means next week we'll play for $400. I'm happy with that. $400 of mobile fuel. Oh, my God, I can breathe again for a week. She gets so tense.
Starting point is 00:37:56 Bree and Clint. Look, I'll warn you. It's a warning. When I read out this statistic on this study, you're probably going to go, yeah, duh. Okay. Because that's what I did when I read out this statistic on this study, you're probably going to go, yeah, duh. Okay. Because that's what I did when I read it. As I kept an obvious alert? Yeah, I think so. Okay, sure.
Starting point is 00:38:11 All right. Will you tell me? Okay, sure. There's a study that's been done about single people and people in relationships and pretty much who's the best at being social. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:38:23 And it said that it's actually a scientific study. They've actually put some thought and effort into it. But it's found. I already know the answer. And I feel personally attacked. That when it comes to being social, it's much better to be in a relationship. Really? Jokes.
Starting point is 00:38:42 I was like, damn, this survey is wrong. in a relationship. Really? Jokes. I was like, damn, this survey's wrong. No, they said it's much better to be single, which when you read that, you're like, well, duh. Well, duh. Makes sense.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Yeah. When you go into a relationship, like it or not, you are going to isolate from your friend group a bit. A bit. It doesn't matter. Some more than others.
Starting point is 00:39:04 Some more than others. Yeah. But you are from time to time. Because maybe you caught up with your friends every Friday night. Guess what? There's going to be a Friday night where you and your partner just stay home and have tables. You have to.
Starting point is 00:39:12 And then you know what will happen? You'll have a baby. And that will become every Friday night. Even smaller. Yeah. And every Saturday night. And then you have another baby and it becomes even smaller and smaller and smaller. Which I'm not complaining about.
Starting point is 00:39:23 It's just a fact of life. It's just a fact of life. It's just a fact of life. It's just the way that things go. This study published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships pretty much looked at the different ties you've got to relatives, neighbours, friends in adults, and it revealed that single individuals are more likely to frequently stay in touch and provide help to others and receive help from others
Starting point is 00:39:47 and just have that general connection with other people. Yeah, well, you have to when you're single. Because you don't have anyone else. Oh, ouch. Oh, low blow, Bree. Ouch. That's ouch. I was going to say, I'm single.
Starting point is 00:39:58 It's fine, but I'm not. No, you've been in a relationship for quite a while now. Quite some time. Sometimes you think you're single, though. No, I don't. Sometimes you're quite a while now. Quite some time. Sometimes you think you're single though. No, I don't. Sometimes you're like, yeah, let's stay out. Oh, damn it, I've got that pesky partner at home. No, I don't ever think I'm single.
Starting point is 00:40:12 You do make more of an effort to be social when you're single, not just because you have to, but because you can. You're completely unattached. You have no one to answer to and you've got no one, you don't have to let anybody know what time you're going to be home when you're single. That is one thing. And even someone like me who i love being in the relationship that i am i am in but i can admit uh the thing i miss about being single is you have no responsibility for anyone else you can just do whatever you want yeah you seeing that
Starting point is 00:40:40 as a bad thing it's a good thing for me. What? Having a bit of responsibility and going, no, mate, you need to go home. There's someone waiting for you at home, you need to go home. Right. So I've got self-control. Yeah, right. Maybe that's something I lack. Yeah. When I'm single, when I was single.
Starting point is 00:40:55 Yeah, you are someone that I could picture to be like that. It's like when Lucy and Tui go away for the weekend to Lucy's parents' place. I'm like, it's on the loose. Let's go. And Bree'm like, Glenn's on the loose. Let's go. And Bree's like, it's Tuesday. You can always tell when your wife and child are away. I'm always like, is Lucy away? And you're like, yeah, how do you know?
Starting point is 00:41:13 And I was like, it's just a smell. I try and make up for six months of not going out in one night. I'm like, just take it easy. I was like, settle down. Yeah, okay, that results. They didn't need to do a study for that. I have no doubt that single people are more social than people in relationships.
Starting point is 00:41:29 I think what they were trying to pretty much portray is that a lot of the time, you know, they're saying that marriage should be the goal, that should be the end point for everyone. Whereas this study is saying that it shouldn't be the ultimate goal because single people have a lot of perks in their life as well. There's good things about being single. Yeah, they apparently...
Starting point is 00:41:50 Don't feel like you've failed life because you're not in a relationship. You maintain good social bonds and being single could be the way to go for a lot of people. Yeah, look at Hugh Hefner. That was a bad example. Yeah, it's not a great example. And he wasn't really single. He was the opposite.
Starting point is 00:42:05 Or happy. No. He had like 17 girlfriends. I've never seen a man who's pretending to be happy more than Hugh Hefner. If I wear this furry robe, this velvet robe, I think people will not know. I'm bankrupt, but it's a dream. This is what I wanted. Now come and get in my spa that's a human soup.
Starting point is 00:42:26 We hate you, old man. Oh, yeah. Why do you have to talk like this? What do you want to ask? I want to ask people, like, have you been single for a long time? Oh, okay. And what's it like? Are you loving it?
Starting point is 00:42:40 Do you love being single? Yeah. Yeah. Those people living their best life. What's the best thing about being single? Yeah. Yeah. Those people living their best life. What's the best thing about being single? Yeah. Yeah. I want to know.
Starting point is 00:42:48 Okay, 0800 dial ZM. And then we can live through them, Clint. Yeah, convince us to leave our partners. That's your challenge this afternoon, single people. 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. Now there's a man who's not happy about being single. Can he write a happy song? God.
Starting point is 00:43:09 What we're doing this afternoon, it's Bree and Clint by the way, you're on ZDM. What we're doing this afternoon is we're looking to talk to single people. That's right. We want to know how long you've been single and sell the dream. What do you love about it? A study has revealed, shock horror, that single people are more social than people in relationships. They're better at all round relationships with people
Starting point is 00:43:28 and staying in touch. I don't think there's a single person in a relationship who would argue that That's not true. Everyone in a relationship knows that they're neglecting their friends. There's nothing like seeing the guy or girl your best mate that you hung out with when you were both single and then seeing them like six months into
Starting point is 00:43:43 a relationship and you're like oh hey man hey, man, sorry I haven't text. You know what is the best though? What? When, say, you and your best mate that hung out all the time and then you both got into relationships. Yeah. If it ever comes back around full circle and you're both in a relationship again,
Starting point is 00:43:59 has that ever happened to you? What? You're both not in a relationship? Again, like later after being in one. Oh, I see. Oh, it's good. You said you're celebrating the breakup.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Well, you just have each other and you have... single each other, you know? It's good. We've got some single people on the phone. Hey, Vincent.
Starting point is 00:44:16 Hi, Vincent. Yo, what's up, guys? Sell us the dream, man. How good is it being single? Oh, it's absolutely amazing. You have all the time in the world to work on yourself
Starting point is 00:44:25 and become the best version of yourself. And you don't have to answer to anyone and live life in your terms. It is very true. I've been single for about a year and a half and it's not stopping anytime soon. What a great attitude. You sound empowered.
Starting point is 00:44:39 What are you doing to better yourself? What are you doing to make yourself the best you you can be? You've got time for everything. Yeah, absolutely. Going to the gym. Oh, yeah. I remember what that was like.
Starting point is 00:44:49 Eating good food. Yeah. And just hanging out with friends and family that mean the most to me. There you go. Yeah. That definitely sounds like being single because being in a relationship involves not going to the gym and eating chocolate, which are good things too. Both good.
Starting point is 00:45:03 Yeah, yeah. Both good. Okay, Vincent, that's inspirational. We appreciate it. Mike's here. G'day, Mike. Hello, Mike. G'day, g'day.
Starting point is 00:45:09 How are we? Good, Mike. How long have you been single for? Oh, I've been single for about six years now. Okay, so you know your way around singledom? Oh, yeah, buddy. It's a dream, isn't it? Is it?
Starting point is 00:45:20 Tell us. Oh, mate, let me tell you. How good's it, buddy, going out, not having to, buddy, deal with any bullshit coming home? Yeah. Oh, mate, let me tell you. How good's it bloody going out, not having to bloody deal with any bullshit coming home? Yeah. Right, okay. Hey. He's got a point.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Why'd your last relationship end? Oh, yeah. Going out. I thought you were going to say going out and then I had to deal with all the bullshit. Oh, no, no. I did go out a fair bit, though. That's probably led to it.
Starting point is 00:45:45 Are you in the market for a partner? Like, do you keep your eyes peeled for the one? Oh, yeah, you know, you're always messing around a bit on Tinder and everything, hey? Yeah. Yeah, why not, Mike? You sound like a catch. Oh, mate, I'll tell you, I'm not. Where do you live?
Starting point is 00:46:00 What part of New Zealand? Oh, I'm in the Naki. You should have guessed that. Oh, we love the Naki. How good was it having the shield for a week? Oh mate, it was good. I even got a photo for it. Yeah, how good. If you like the sound of Mike, he's been single for six
Starting point is 00:46:13 years, Texas 9696. We'll pass on the numbers, Mike. Oh yeah, why not? Give it a go, eh? He'll be at the front booth at Crowded House Bar at six o'clock tonight. How does that sound? That's where everyone will be.
Starting point is 00:46:29 Jonathan, g'day. Hello. Hey, what's up? Not much. How long have you been single? I've been single for about four weeks now. I think it started September. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:38 Right, so this is fairly new. And how long before that? Like how long had you been in a relationship? Right, so I actually came out of the closet in 2017, I think. Within a couple of days, I was straight into a relationship. Oh, no. So you didn't have time to explore and have fun. No, none of that, none of that, none of that.
Starting point is 00:46:54 So, yeah, like three years later, now I've got my chance to spread my wings. I'm just enjoying the freedom of choice. How good. And perfect time is, you know, we're all starting to not have to socially distance as much. In summer. And summer's coming and you can find a rainbow unicorn and fly on down to Family Bar in Auckland if you want.
Starting point is 00:47:15 Yeah. My only concern, though, is for the last three years, I let my body form into its natural state and so now I've got to work on that summer body. Right. You know what's okay though, Jonathan? What's that? Is that every single person
Starting point is 00:47:28 that's happened to in the last year because we've all been inside for COVID. No one's been to the gym in nine months, Jonathan. So you're fine. Couldn't agree more. I'm so excited for you. Go paint the town rainbow.
Starting point is 00:47:40 I will. You're going to have a great time. I'll start tonight. Yeah, good start. Thanks, Jonathan. Three great ambassadors for the single life. See, that sounds so fun, doesn't it? Stop sounding so interested in it.

Starting point is 00:55:48 Anastasia is on the money. Of course she is. It's her namesake. It's her hero. I felt really grown up last night because me and my flatmates. You microwaved your own dinner. No. Did that.
Starting point is 00:56:00 And then after that, we sat down to watch the debate. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was the second debate, obviously the one hosted by Patti Gower, Jacinda Ardern taking on Judith Collins and I feel like it got a lot more heated last night. The next one, all the parties joining in, it's a big one, it's a mass debate. It is.
Starting point is 00:56:24 And I thought, you know, how can I make this exciting and relevant for our audience that, you know, a lot of the time they're kind of like, oh, that full debate, not very exciting. Yeah, it's a bit of a politics deep dive. It's cool to be politically active and engaged, but sometimes a bit too much is a bit too much. Yeah, so I thought, how can I grab our audience's attention?
Starting point is 00:56:44 And I thought the most interesting part of the whole debate was this. Judith Collins, have you ever used cannabis? No, I have not. Jacinda Ardern, have you ever used cannabis? Yes, I did, a long time ago. Great. I mean, I was hooked. I was hooked, and I thought it was very interesting.
Starting point is 00:56:59 Then they went, Patti Gowler, have you ever used weed? And he was like, yeah, last week. I'm on it right now. I did a doco on it. And then I thought, how can I make, you know, take that piece of audio and get our audience excited about the election? And I put my head together with producer Ben, and we came up with a 2020 Jacinda versus Judith remix. Peace up. Eighth town down.
Starting point is 00:57:23 Tinatato Katoa. There are 17 days to go. remix. after October 17th. Let's bring in the leaders of the Labour and National Parties, Jacinda Ardern and Judith Collins. Wait for the drop. Let's go! Judith Collins, have you ever used cannabis? No, I have not. No, I haven't. Jacinda Ardern, have you ever used cannabis?
Starting point is 00:57:59 Yes, I did, a long time ago. Yes, I did. Yes, I did. Yes! Yes! I know what you might be thinking. And if you're a national voter, you're like, this isn't fair. It's not very fair. Judith doesn't get as much of a run as Jacinda in this remix. No, it's very Jacinda heavy.
Starting point is 00:58:33 In fact, I'm going to accuse you of being pro-Jacinda. Well, stop right there, because producer Ben and I have put our heads together again and we've made a Judith Collins version of the same remix. Take a listen. Judith Collins. Have you ever used cannabis? No, I have not. Jacinda Ardern, have you ever used cannabis?
Starting point is 00:58:51 Yes, I did. A long time ago. No, I have not. No, I have not. No, I have not. No, I have not. No, I have not. No, I have not. It's not as much fun, though, because she's saying no the whole time.
Starting point is 00:59:15 I know. Be a yes man. I'm not saying you should do it. I'm just saying. There it is, Clint. Our show's way, the Bree and Clint way of bringing the information you need to know about the upcoming election to the people. Damn, that's hot. That is fire. I love that. No, I have not.
Starting point is 00:59:34 That was so good, I'm considering voting. That's what it's all about. Get out there and vote. I've got a hot music take. Controversial, hot music take That I need to deliver on this show And I'd appreciate it if you as my co-host Just let me do it, okay? I know you don't agree with this
Starting point is 00:59:51 What do you mean? You haven't asked me No, I know you're anti this I know you're anti it But I need to take a stand for myself And say I believe in this And it's time that I spoke out And said how I feel for a change So if you could just support me
Starting point is 01:00:03 That would be good Okay? Do I have your support? I don't know,, that would be good. Do I have your support? I don't know. I have to hear it first. Do I have your support? I don't want to open. To speak my mind. Do I have your support to speak my mind?
Starting point is 01:00:12 Yes, you have my support to give your opinion. I, Clint Roberts, hot rockin' radio DJ here on ZDM radio station, believe that we are doing our listeners a disservice. By playing Lewis Capaldi too much. Maybe. Maybe. Maybe what she just said. No, I believe we are underserving our audience by not allowing them to listen
Starting point is 01:00:35 to the new Vin Diesel and Kygo song. I think this song is a banger and you just think it's not because he's Vin Diesel And you think he's a big joke No, I'm the one that broke this news to you Yeah, you did and I said to you, that's good And you go, no, it's not I never said it's not good
Starting point is 01:00:53 I just said, it's okay Are you on my team? I don't think it's a banger I'm giving you the opportunity, Bree, to get on board early here And be a tastemaker And come with me and say the Vin Diesel Kygo song is a banger and we should be playing it on ZM. Look, I'm not going to lie. I did watch the first Fast and the Furious film last night.
Starting point is 01:01:16 Yes, you're getting in the mood. He's an icon. Vin Diesel is an icon. Why shouldn't he be a double threat? I love Vin Diesel. Yeah. I absolutely adore Vin Diesel. Do you know how old Vin Diesel was in that first movie?
Starting point is 01:01:27 How old? I went down a deep dive on Vin Diesel last night. 30. 34. Yeah, right. He's been around for ages, and now he's making his foray into music, and I think it's time that we support him. I love how Kygo, in the past 12 months, has really collaborated with some amazing people.
Starting point is 01:01:43 First, he went Whitney Houston. I mean, the absolute ultimate of the divas. Yeah, yeah. And First he went Whitney Houston I mean the absolute ultimate of the divas. And then he went Tina Turner who's also amazing. And then he's went with Vin Diesel. He's doing something different. It's a real left field isn't it? I think we make a stand now.
Starting point is 01:01:58 I think we say screw the rules. I'm happy to play it. And this show here takes a stand as the number one Vin Diesel playing radio station in New Zealand. And we play the whole damn song. Okay? Yeah. Let's do it.
Starting point is 01:02:09 Let's swap it for the Lewis Capaldi song coming up. All right, here we go. We're doing it. All right. This is the first time it's been played on ZM. I'm keen. Vin Diesel, made by Kygo. This is Feel Like I Do.
Starting point is 01:02:22 Let us know your thoughts. 9696. ZM's free in Clint. Kaigo, this is Fear Like I Do. Let us know your thoughts. 9696.
