Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello everybody and welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast. Did you know we got Jason PJ's mail the other day? Did you see that? We got sent some mail for them. Well, technically they're still on ZM. Are they? On weekends, aren't they? Oh.
Starting point is 00:00:13 Are they? Are they? Are they? Are they? I hope they are. I think they might be. That's a great question. Producer Ben, same question.
Starting point is 00:00:22 Are they? Are they? I'll check. Yeah, check it out. I don't know. The package, I was like, yes, this is going to be so good. We can ring them and be like, ah-ha-ha, we got your package. But I really feel like this is a package that we should forward to them
Starting point is 00:00:33 because they got sent some face masks. Yeah, we got sent the same ones. Good face masks. They are good face masks. They're a Kiwi company, and if anyone can use them, it's the team over there in Melbourne at the moment. There's nothing worse. I doubt they're waiting for this mail because I'm sure that they just sent them to them.
Starting point is 00:00:52 But there's nothing worse than waiting for something in the mail. You don't think they ordered them online and forgot to update their shipping address? No, I don't think that that happened. I think a company has just sent them those. There's nothing worse than waiting for mail, though. Speaking of which, there was an announcement today from New Zealand Post that if you're sending mail overseas for Christmas, you have to send it in November this year.
Starting point is 00:01:16 Really? If you want it to get there. That's me. I'm going to have to do that. Yeah, yeah. You've got heaps of time, mate. You do have heaps of time. Three weeks away.
Starting point is 00:01:22 I have to buy all the gifts. Yeah. Yeah, three weeks away. And gifts Yeah And send them In three weeks That's what I'm telling you now I'm telling you As soon as I got the information What a load of BS You prick
Starting point is 00:01:32 But to be honest It's only a week earlier Than it is normally That is true So And you would rather Get it on time Well to be honest
Starting point is 00:01:39 It's just shit Because usually I would be at home And you could give the presents Yeah I could give them the presents But it's not the same When you send it And you can't even be there Like you can be on FaceTime But it's not the. And you could give the presents. Yeah, I could give them the presents. But it's not the same when you send it and you can't even be there. You can be on FaceTime, but it's not the same. And you can do the thing that I always do
Starting point is 00:01:50 when I go home for Christmas. I've got all my Christmas shopping done, never get around to wrapping it. Have you done it now? I love wrapping it. No, no, no, no, no. I haven't done it now. That's the best part.
Starting point is 00:02:00 I do wrap it, but I wrap it on Christmas Eve. I take myself off to a bedroom by myself with a drink or three, and I sit there and I wrap all the presents. That's what my mum always did. She was always last minute, and then she'd always be stressed. My parents always stayed up, I think. Well, that's a lie. Mum stayed up and wrapped the presents on Christmas Eve.
Starting point is 00:02:20 So we would get us off to bed. You mean the presents from your parents? Yeah, the presents from my parents. Yeah, and then obviously the elves wrap Santa's presents. Well, they're not wrapping them all in sight, though. Christmas Eve. So we would actually get us off to bed. You mean the presents from your parents? Yeah the presents from my parents. Yeah. I love that. And then obviously you know the elves wrap Santa's
Starting point is 00:02:27 presents. Well they're not wrapping them on site though. They're wrapping them in the factory.

No, it's just Santa. Elves are tiny. Yeah, but I've never put anything out for the elves. I've only ever put out carrots for the reindeers and cookies and beer for Santa. If I know elves, they help up on the roof. Does Santa drink drive?
Starting point is 00:02:56 Yeah, he gets huckster, bro. Because the reindeers are driving. Oh, true. No, we gave Santa milk. And now he's lactose intolerant. We give him almond milk. Oh, yeah, yeah. Coconut milk. Yeah,'s lactose intolerant We give him almond milk Coconut milk Is he a plant-based Santa?
Starting point is 00:03:10 Plant-based Santa? I guess, yeah, you've got Should you be providing all different dietary requirements for Santa now? Yeah, like he can't always eat cookies What if he's gluten-free? You'd know about it Yeah, that's true You'd know about it because there'd be There'd be a big skid mark
Starting point is 00:03:25 On your toilet On Christmas morning Kanga Oh no Santa's got IBS Oh not again Look out He'd do a Kanga

A Kanga is where you sit like a kangaroo, like backwards on the toilet. Well, right. And then so when you do a poo, your poo hits the front bowl of the toilet. It's called a Kanga. What an interesting.
Starting point is 00:03:59 I would have liked to have just said it and then said, if you know, you know. No, because people who are listening to this podcast are like they needed to know that I hate when someone talks about something and they don't explain it or when someone goes oh I've got the best story to actually no I can't tell that story that's even worse
Starting point is 00:04:18 that's alright oh sorry you don't mind that I've got something really cool to tell you It only affects you Don't worry about it Piss off No one has that
Starting point is 00:04:32 Reaction What about this We got sent these burgers today Which if you listen to this podcast in Australia They've done it in Australia already They've just started doing it in New Zealand Where Burger King are quite like deliberately ripping off the Big Mac.
Starting point is 00:04:47 They call it like guerrilla marketing. And it's like guerrilla marketing. Yeah, I think it is. I think this is deliberate. No, this isn't guerrilla marketing. This is parasitic marketing. Yeah. Where you leech off another business's success.
Starting point is 00:04:59 Yeah. Anyway, yeah, it's like they've brought out their own Big Mac. It's called the Big King. It's a buzzy concept because what's next? Where do you stop after that? The McWhopper. The McWhopper.
Starting point is 00:05:15 McDonald's Quarter Pack. Oh, McDonald's Quarter Pack would be good. McDonald's Quarter Pack. Like what? Like chicken? Yeah. And they do it in the McChicken coating. Actually, just to change the subject,
Starting point is 00:05:25 Ben showed me in Australia, was it Australia? KFC's releasing a popcorn chicken burger. Yes, please. I could get around a bit of that. Is it bits of popcorn chicken? You guys would never have had the ripper. A ripper? From Red Rooster.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Is a ripper just like a long, like, you know, Burger King, yeah. BK Chicken. A Ripper is a kick-ass like crusty bun with like a really nice chicken schnitzel on it. Oh yum. And it's got this like sauce on it that I've never tasted before that's like quite like
Starting point is 00:05:58 just real zingy. Oh what a Ripper. And it's a Ripper yeah. I don't know if it's called a Ripper anymore but that's what it was called back in the day. You guys had Red Rooster here ripper. Yeah. I don't know if it's called a ripper anymore, but that's what it was called back in the day. You guys had Red Rooster here very briefly. Yeah. Not in the South Island, guys. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:06:13 The South Island didn't get a lot of things for a long time. You only recently got Wendy's. I thought there was a cafe in this small place in Christchurch called Rooster Cafe. And I would always tell people, I was like, no, there was definitely a Red Rooster there. There wasn't, but. Just a Ro this is for all our aussie podcast listeners we have so many different chicken places but red rooster is the main one but we've got places like super rooster super rooster super rooster is like probably a more queensland thing you don't even eat the
Starting point is 00:06:42 rooster do you you only eat chicken yeah that's a bit sexist, isn't it? Oh, yeah. The roosters are too tough. It's like how you don't eat bull. It's the testosterone that makes them too tough. I've eaten bull's testicles before. I'm talking out a hole in my face, by the way. I don't know what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Have you ever eaten bush oysters before? Is that a bull's testicle? It's any type of animal testicle. Oh, no. It's a bush oyster. No. I have. It's not nice.
Starting point is 00:07:06 It's real chewy. Right. Like real chewy. I'd say it would be. Now you tell me this. I've had sheep's testicles. Now you tell me this. They're a delicacy in some cultures.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Yeah. Mountain oysters. Yeah, that's some other people call them mountain oysters. I'd be lucky in that instance because I don't eat any seafood and I'd just be like, oysters, get them away from me. I'd be like, no, they I don't eat any seafood and I'd just be like, oof, oysters, get them away from me. I'd be like, they were like, no, they're a different food. You don't eat, wait, you don't eat any seafood. I eat prawns.
Starting point is 00:07:32 You eat, I love prawns. Of everything you eat prawns. Yeah, I had a few bad. What about fish? Yeah, well I had a bad instance with, um, on a flight, on an Emirates flight. You get the shits. They didn't know, it was just. You get the fish shits. Spewing from Sydney to christchurch three hours just non-stop i was oh i told this story on the weekend about my mum the time she
Starting point is 00:07:53 got she got this one time she got real sick wasn't you guys that i told this story to i was about 12 years old no 13 and it was the only time i ever saw my mom really really violently ill yeah and she was my mom's gonna hate that i told this story on the podcast she was throwing up she started throwing up and anyway she went to the bathroom and then it started shitting and vomiting she and she's like i've got food poisoning Yeah. So she was in the bathroom. She was in there for a couple of hours and I kept going in to check on her because she literally couldn't leave the bathroom because she was so ill. And I came back to the bathroom and I was like trying to give her water
Starting point is 00:08:35 and I was like, Mom, how are you going? She's like, not good. She's like, call your dad. Anyway, so I've called my dad who was up at the apple shed packing apples. And I was like, Dad, I think it was about 4 o'clock at this stage, which my dad always used to work till whatever. And I was like, Dad, you need to come home. Mum's real sick.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Anyway, my dad goes, yeah, yeah, yeah. I've just got one more bin of apples to do, which is like big giant bins to pack, and then I'll be home. Anyway, I was like, Mum, because I was still on the phone, I was like, mum, dad said he'll be home after one more bin of apples. And all I remember is my mum being like, you tell him to come home now. And it was like the devil was coming out of the bathroom. Anyway, my mum was like, before my dad got home,
Starting point is 00:09:21 she was like, call the ambulance. It was real bad, like real bad. Anyway, so the ambulance turned it was real bad like real bad anyway so the ambulance turned up was it that bad or was she like i'm no it was she was throwing up violently and shitting herself for about six and a half hours all right leave the woman some dignity no no listen you will never guess what it was from oh no anyway anyway so she went to the hospitals she went to the hospital and they had to give her a drip and give her fluids and stuff so she went to the hospital. Plotless apples. She went to the hospital and they had to give her a drip and give her fluids and stuff so she could, like, obviously get back to normal.
Starting point is 00:09:49 And then, like, how many days later, all of a sudden, the same thing has happened. No. And she's the exact same. She's like, call your dad. It's happened again. And what? You know what it was from?
Starting point is 00:10:03 What? It was from this natural vitamin that she'd been given by a naturopath or whoever it was. I think it was called wisteria root. That's what it was called. Yeah. And some people it can make you violently ill. Was it a weight loss vitamin?
Starting point is 00:10:21 Because if it was. I don't think so. Arguably it was doing its job just too fast. I think she just had a bad reaction. She just needed a smaller dose. The worst part was the look on her face when she realised what it was and she'd taken it again. Not good.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Not good. Tell him to come now. Anyway mum if you're listening Anyway that's the first time Brie learned about a Kanga. Mum had the bucket on top of the toilet and she was sitting Kanga style. And it stages out. Mumma Di, we respect you and love you. You call my mum.

Like you take, like, even though it's really hard sometimes, like we're waking up a couple of times a night to take her out to go to the bathroom. I saw a baby hedgehog this morning. So that's, you know, glass half full. You're still in the afterglow.

Yeah, right, because you're a new parent. Because I'm a new parent. You get up and watch the TV news. With my baby dog.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Yes. So I saw this segment where they're talking about how top ways to save money. Okay. So I thought I could bring that to you guys, but then we could talk the fun side of it afterwards. I was going to say, it sounds like some Mark Richardson boomer content from you. Hey, there's some actually really good millennial ways. He's like, number one way to save money,
Starting point is 00:14:11 vote national. That's how we'll save money, we'll get money back in the economy. Get rid of Jacinda. Boom! Money saved. Bree and Clint. I was up early this morning, Clint, you know, because I'm a new dog mama now. You're a new parent.
Starting point is 00:14:27 And I was just getting all the knowledge. You were dog breastfeeding. Please don't say that. You had to change your dog nappy. That is not accurate. Well, dogs sometimes do have to wear nappies. Does yours? No.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Well, not yet, but she is a female, you know, dog. Yeah, right. So when her time comes. Anyway. You know, as a new mum, you need to avoid trampolines for a while. Yeah. Just letting you know. It's a fact of life.
Starting point is 00:14:49 It's not embarrassing. You just should. It's just a fact of life. I didn't birth the dog. You know that. You know that dogs don't come from. Yeah, but for this analogy, it provides me with a lot more room for jokes. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:14:58 If we pretend that you did. Anyway, moving on from the weird area we just arrived in. Who cut the umbilical cord? Sorry, moving on from the weird area we just arrived in. Who cut the umbilical cord? Sorry, carry on. I was watching the AM show this morning and they were talking about different ways you can save money in 2020. And, you know, obviously I have a baby daughter now to think of, my dog. I was like, I need to save money. So I pulled out a few of the things that I thought were actually quite good.
Starting point is 00:15:24 Okay, we're laughing and mainly because you were watching the AM show. Yeah. save money. So I pulled out a few of the things that I thought were actually quite good. Okay, we're laughing and mainly because you were watching the AM show. Yeah, I know. But there was a few really good tips. This is helpful and topical. We need to save money, so go on. Yeah, well, you tell me if you think these are decent tips or not. So the first one was you should go into your phone and I love doing this and I think this is probably a really good tip for anyone that has a smartphone. You can go into your phone and I love doing this and I think this is probably a really good tip for anyone that has a smartphone. You can go into your phone and you can have a look at what you're subscribed to
Starting point is 00:15:50 because you don't know what you're subscribed to. You know what I'm talking about? So it could be different apps it could be a gaming app. If you've got an iPhone you do it all within the app store and if you've got an Android it's all within the Play Store. You go into the Play Store, it's a tab at the left,
Starting point is 00:16:06 and you just click on subscriptions. Yeah, and you click, and it shows you everything and when they're out of date and how much you're paying. That's just common sense. That's a good one. Yeah, but a lot of people don't do it. Right, okay, yeah, that's good. They subscribe to something.
Starting point is 00:16:17 And she also said that it's awesome to streamline your streaming services. So if you've got, say, because she was pretty much like, you know, when things are good and you're not worrying about money or whatever, you tend to go, I'll get this one and I'll get that one and I'll get this one, which you don't really need six streaming services. So she was like, you know, you should streamline them. Keep your favourite one. Keep your favourite two.
Starting point is 00:16:41 If you're a neon person. She was like, keep your favourite two. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, instead of four or five or six. Yeah, you can get by with neon and Netflix. You're changing them every time. Yeah, just pick your favourite ones and if you need to save money. Okay, what were you?
Starting point is 00:16:56 So that was one of them. She also said, don't pay rent for a year. How does that one work? Well, and people do this, you know. She said, make a commitment. If you don't want to pay rent for a year, you can sign up to different websites and stuff and you can pet or house sit
Starting point is 00:17:13 and you bounce around from house to house. Pain in the ass. But still. I've tried it. I tried it when we renovated. Oh, yeah. It's actually way harder than you think to get onto these house sitting and pet sitting
Starting point is 00:17:25 sites because everyone's figured out that life hack. Yeah, but you just wanted to house sit mansions and places that had a spa pool and stuff. Yeah, why else am I going house sitting? I'm not looking to house sit a worse house than mine, am I? What's the point of that? And the last one she said was
Starting point is 00:17:42 to pretty much rent out all of your stuff. What do you mean rent out your stuff? She was like, if you've got a bunch of stuff, like if you've got paddle boards or adventure gear or if you've got a car that you don't drive to work every day or a car space, she's like, you can rent all that stuff out. There's like websites and stuff to do it. I've actually seen that.
Starting point is 00:18:00 I forget what it's called, but there's a new, you can use your, you know, I read a crazy fact that said the average power drill gets used for 15 minutes. Yes, what it's called. But there's a new, you can use your, you know I read a crazy fact that said the average power drill gets used for 15 minutes. Yes, and she said tools. Of its entire life. It runs for 15 minutes. Yeah, tools are one of the biggest ones on these websites where people rent out their tools. Yeah, right. Okay, yeah, I'll give you
Starting point is 00:18:17 that one. Cool. That's all I've got. I couldn't bear to watch any more of the show. Well, those are good tips. Do you feel more financially equipped? I think they those are good tips. Do you feel more financially equipped? I think they're quite good tips. Yeah, right. But, you know, that's quite boring to talk about saving money sometimes.
Starting point is 00:18:33 Sometimes you just want to throw caution to the wind and just spend money, you know, one weekend. Hand over fist. Retail therapy. Just throw money at people. Why don't we come back next with the top five ways to save money. Why don't we come back next with, that was the top five ways to save money. Why don't we come back with the top five ways to waste money. Yeah, see, that's way more fun and more on brand for us.
Starting point is 00:18:52 Yeah, right. 0800 dials at M. Top ways you like to waste money. Or you can text us on 9696. Bree and Clint. The AM show this morning had the top ways to save money in 2020, but we're millennials, so we're doing the top ways to waste money. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:10 What is your favourite thing to just splurge money on? Oh, oh, rent. Oh, God, I love to pay that rent. Love paying that rent. I love it. So good. Oh, I live in Auckland and I love paying for parking, for the job that I have to do to be able to afford parking. So good. Oh, I live in Auckland and I love paying for parking for the job that I have to do to be able to afford parking.
Starting point is 00:19:26 So cheap. No, no, fun things to spend money on. Seriously, what's your favourite thing to waste money on? It 100% is takeaway food. Takeaways. Yeah. Yeah. Uber Eats.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Yeah, any takeaways. I'm just like, you know, that's my thing. Yeah. Mine's Lotto. But you already knew that. Yeah, I did know that. Because Lotto is like an you know, that's my thing. Yeah. Mine's lotto. But you already knew that. Yeah, I did know that. Because lotto is like an investment scheme. It's like a-
Starting point is 00:19:48 Stop trying to- No. It's a money in- It's like a term deposit. Uber Eats or like takeaways, instant gratification. Yeah. Yours could be in 10, 20, 30 years. Lotto is temporary gratification
Starting point is 00:20:01 because I feel like a millionaire right up until Saturday. Right up until Saturday where they whip that rug out from under you. We've asked you guys on 0800DIALZM, what's your favourite thing to splurge money on? Sarah, waste of money, what's your favourite way to do it? Buy a CrossFit membership for $50 a week
Starting point is 00:20:18 and then never use it. Yeah, right. Can I ask, what are the games like with a CrossFit membership that you don't use? Oh, brilliant. Yeah, right? I bet you're really seeing results.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Break a watermelon with your thighs. Oh, so many. Yeah. A lot of people do that, though, Sarah. Don't feel bad. There's so many people who have gym memberships and never go. Olivia's here. Hi, Olivia.
Starting point is 00:20:40 Hi, Liv. Hi. My partner, Wes, are ridiculous when I'm running on those claw machines at the mall. What, like. Hi, Liv. Hi, my partner wastes a ridiculous amount of money on most car machines at the mall. What, like a skill tester? And yeah, he only ever wins a cheap toy if he ever wins it all. Olivia, how old is your partner?
Starting point is 00:20:56 27. How much money do you think he puts into, because obviously there's two numbers, the number he tells you and the real number. Every time we go, he has to have a couple of goes. So it'd be at least $10 every trip to the mall. Right. Oh, that's a fair bit.
Starting point is 00:21:10 You need to start leaving him in the car. Buy him a 1.5 litre Pepsi and leave him in the car. The worst thing is when he's got no coins and he expects me to fork up coins for him. And then he's like, do you have any coins, babe? And it's every time. You're dating a regular Jeff Bezos there, Olivia. You know what you should do, Liv, and you can cheat the system. You buy your own claw machine off Trade Me, like one of the old ones, and then you put
Starting point is 00:21:34 heaps of beers in there. Yeah. And then he just puts all the money in that and you take all the money. But you buy cheap beers. That'd be great. Yeah, you just got to outlay for the machine first and then start making money out of your boyfriends. It'll pay for itself. That's the best kind of relationship.
Starting point is 00:21:48 We'll finish with Emma. Emma, your favourite way to waste money, what is it? Going to the groceries and spending a bunch on food and then just coming home and getting Uber Eats. Hey, Emma, have you been living at my house? That's exactly what I do. How enjoyable is it throwing out an unopened bag of spinach every single Sunday?
Starting point is 00:22:09 It's not spinach anymore. Every single week. Well, you go into your grocery shop with such good intentions and you get all the fresh fruit and veg and you're just so exhausted that you come home and you don't want to cook. You're like, oh, that's probably off anyway after being in there for a day
Starting point is 00:22:25 You're like better get in a brief Time to treat myself I've done the hard work Thanks Emma Brian Clint ZM Brian Clint From iHeartRadio
Starting point is 00:22:34 This is The latest Live from LA With Dean McCarthy I honestly didn't realise It was still a magazine Honestly I didn't But Dean McCarthy's got details
Starting point is 00:22:44 On who's going to pose for Playboy magazine. Hi, Dean. Hi, Dean. Hi, guys. Yeah, this will shock you. It's left me a little bit unsettled, I guess you could say. Dolly Parton at 75 years old is going to pose for Playboy. Now, here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:23:02 Here's the thing. Look, she's still got it. She looks amazing for her age or any age, hello. Welcome to Playboy Day. Here's the thing. Here's the thing. Look, she's still got it. She looks amazing for her age or any age, really. She has posed for Playboy before in 1978, I think it was. But at 75, she will be the oldest, eldest, most mature of all the models ever in Playboy. She's got the Playboy look. I don't know. She's like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:23:22 Whatever. I'm Dolly Parton. You know there's a Dolly Parton world. Are we all aware of this? I've been. Brie's been to Dolly World. I've been to Dolly World in Tennessee. It's quite the place.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Brie and I are all about this Playboy shoot, by the way. I don't mean to speak for you. We're keen for it. Dean, the only reason that you're rattled and a bit shocked is because the idea of any naked woman scares you. Which is fair enough, Dean. I say good for her. 75 and feeling fresh. Go for it.
Starting point is 00:23:48 It's going to do amazing things for sales. Yeah. Because you'll want to see. Absolutely. I hope someone doesn't take photos and put it on the internet and ruin their big arm. They'll be very tasteful photos now in Golly. Yeah. You know? Yeah. Good question, actually, Dean. Do we know if she's doing
Starting point is 00:24:03 full nude Playboy? No. Well, okay, Coll Dean. Do we know if she's doing full nude playboy? No. Well, okay, Colleen. You could go there. I feel like I knew you were going to go there. Look, we don't know if it's going to be how nude, but just like Bree said, as she said in her own words, it will be very tasteful because it's Dolly Parton.
Starting point is 00:24:17 She's a legend. She's an icon. I think they always do. Even if the celebrity is fully nude, there's always things placed. So it's not fully nude. Not always. So I've heard. So I've heard. Do you own any Playboy magazine?
Starting point is 00:24:31 No, but I did used to work in a gas station. What, so you would read them for free? Yeah. Wow. That's even worse. They would just be there. They would just be there in the break room. And we all know you don't touch the magazines at a gas station.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Not those magazines, anyway. That is the latest on Dolly Parton's Playboy shoot with our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy. Thanks to Pump, you can get that fresh feeling with Pump sparkling and berry and lime with no sugar. It's been very topical in the last couple of weeks. James Bond. They've had to postpone
Starting point is 00:25:06 the latest James Bond film, the last Daniel Craig film, to next year. And there's many rumours about who the next Bond is going to be. It's Daniel Craig's last one, this one. Yes, this is his last one. You're too old, we've thrown you off too many buildings. That's it.
Starting point is 00:25:22 It's not realistic that you could keep surviving. You need to retire yeah it is officially 007 James Bond Day today happy I was going to say happy 007 James Bond Day
Starting point is 00:25:32 happy 007 day and I thought we're going to have a martini to celebrate shaken not stirred we thought we didn't even practice that
Starting point is 00:25:41 yeah no that was all off the cuff who would have thought I played a game a fair while ago where I guessed someone's age based on who was their Spider-Man actor. Yeah. Like who was it for them? Was it Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield?
Starting point is 00:25:56 What's the latest one? Who cares? Because for you and I, it was Tobey Maguire. Yeah. Who's James Bond for you? Okay, so James Bond for me, and this might be controversial because of my age, but my James Bond is Daniel Craig.
Starting point is 00:26:12 Does that fit with your algorithm that you've created? We'll see. I have created my own algorithm, and I think maybe because you got into Bond late. Right. Okay, sure. But we'll see. We'll see if it works out.
Starting point is 00:26:25 I'm going to guess people's age based on who is James Bond for them. Let's start with Jax. Hi, Jax. G'day, Jax. Hi there. How are you? Good, thanks. All right, Jax, all I need to know is who is James Bond for you?
Starting point is 00:26:38 Sean Connery, without a doubt. Bond. Right. James Bond. He's so hot, Sean Connery. So hot. He's so, so hot. Oh, you've got an accent too.
Starting point is 00:26:50 Is it an Irish accent? Irish accent, yes. Derry City. Okay. Look, I'm going to go off feel, accent. Did you grow up in Ireland? I did, yes. That's how she got the accent.
Starting point is 00:27:03 Well, she might not have spent a lot of time there. I'm going to say you're in your 40s. Yes. She's done it. She's done it. No, they didn't tell us. No. Okay, one from one.
Starting point is 00:27:19 Let's go to Damien. Hi, Damien. Hi, Damien. How's it going? Good, thank you. All right, he's trying not to give much away. Who's James Bond for you, Damien? Daniel, Damien. Hi, Damien. How's it going? Good, thank you. All right. He's trying not to give much away. Who's James Bond for you, Damien? Daniel Craig.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Daniel Craig. The name's Bond. James Bond. It's an easy one for me. He's got to be around. I'm going to try and narrow it down a bit more because 40s is like a 10-year period, isn't it? Yeah. You've got a five-year window.
Starting point is 00:27:45 Between 20 and 25, that's how old you are. Damien? Yes, spot on the money, 24. 24, baby! You've done it, two from two. Okay, thanks, Damien. Whatever this algorithm is you've created... It's working pretty well so far.
Starting point is 00:27:59 If it gets three from three, it's foolproof. Hi, Toby. Hi, Toby. Hey, how's it going? Come on, Toby, Don't let me down. Who's James Bond for you? Pierce Brosnan's my James Bond. Name's Bond.
Starting point is 00:28:11 James Bond. Look, Pierce Brosnan is my James Bond. So based on... I didn't appreciate him as Bond until I got older. Yeah, right. Because I like Daniel Craig. I was like, he's a wimpy Bond. Nah, Pierce Brosnan was the man.
Starting point is 00:28:25 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Based on that and my algorithm, if I'm putting it to the test, I'm 30. I'm going to say you're 30. Yeah, yeah, pretty close, 29. I'll take that. I will take that. It's foolproof.
Starting point is 00:28:43 The system's foolproof. Yeah. I will take that. It's foolproof. The system's foolproof. It does, like, hinder it a bit when people base it on who they think is the hottest Bond. Yeah, the Sean Connery one threw you a bat. Yeah, it did. Because he's 90. Can you believe that? Sean Connery is 90.
Starting point is 00:29:01 Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint's Pumped Up with Pumped Sparkling. Thanks to the new Pump Sparkling. This is one of those ones where you get to choose how much money you take home. That's right. All you have to do is say stop before the bubble bursts, but if you don't, you'll go home with nothing. Who is the lucky person giving it a go today?
Starting point is 00:29:21 Well, how much did she win yesterday? $200. She won about $200, which is a pretty good deal. It went to, I think, just over $300. We're going to give Jeannie a go. Hey, Jeannie. Hi, Jeannie. Hi.
Starting point is 00:29:33 How are you guys? Yesterday we asked the person who won how much money they'd be happy with. Do you have a number in your mind? A hundred would be great. A hundred. Okay. I think that's definitely achievable, but see, maybe if you can hold out for a touch longer. We don't know how long it's going to go for.
Starting point is 00:29:49 My advice would be hold out longer. But we actually don't know. But we don't know. So if you do that and you lose, don't blame me. But I mean, it's all on you. All we need from you, Jeannie, is a nice loud stop when you've had enough. Good luck.
Starting point is 00:30:01 All right, come on, Jeannie. $60. $60. $120. $135. She's going for it. $145. $200. Stop.
Starting point is 00:30:18 Stop. Good job, Jeannie. Well done. I think you crushed it, but we don't know how high it could have gone. You got literally double as much as you wanted. So you've got to be happy with that. 200 bucks coming your way. Absolutely brilliant.
Starting point is 00:30:32 Should we see how far it would have gone just for fun? Yeah, why not? All right, go on. $360. $300. $315. Whoa. $335. Oh, no. $315. Whoa. $335.
Starting point is 00:30:46 Oh, no. $390. No! $425. Oh, my God. Jeannie, you weren't to know, that is the biggest one we've had so far. Yeah, don't feel bad about that, Jeannie. I think $200 is awesome.
Starting point is 00:31:03 I would not be brave enough to hold out that long. And you get to take home $200, which is awesome. Oh, that is amazing. Thank you so much. What are you going to spend your money on? We've got a friend coming down to visit this weekend, so probably drinks in town. Love it. Great idea.
Starting point is 00:31:20 We're glad we can sort you out with that. Congratulations. So thanks to Pumped Sparkling, you can get that fresh feeling with Pumped Sparkling. Berry and lime, it's absolutely fizzing with absolutely no sugar. I love that game. Brie and Clint. How close to the wedding was it called off? Right.
Starting point is 00:31:37 It's a story where a woman has spoken out about how her childhood sweetheart of 10 years never turned up to the altar. Got cold feet. On the day, never turned up. Stayed with her all the way through school. And then at the wedding, he's like, what the hell am I doing? I need to see the world.
Starting point is 00:31:58 I'm out. So turns out her name's Sasha. She was 29. She discovered that she wasn't going to marry her partner of 10 years when he didn't arrive at the wedding. Wait, 29? Yeah. Not childhood sweetheart.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Oh, well, close enough. Nah. That's university. In America. Yeah, maybe not childhood sweetheart, but they've been together for 10 years. Anyway, her partner Kevin was 30 and he bailed on the day when he told her
Starting point is 00:32:31 that his Uber had gotten lost. On the way to the wedding? On the way to the wedding. That story checked out for a little while until three hours later when she said, okay, where are you? Why would you bother?
Starting point is 00:32:46 If you weren't coming, why would you bother sending the Uber lie? He must have been thinking about it. Well, probably. He must have been like, buy myself time. I can get over this. Yeah. Yeah, he was buying himself a little bit of time. She spoke about it on a podcast and she talked about when her first like initial inkling
Starting point is 00:33:03 that something wasn't quite right was when the florist called her and said this florist called me and told me that's when i knew there was something awry my florist called me and said hey the venue is not allowing me to set up the flowers or the tables or the decorations i was in complete like shock i was like what are you talking about you know so that's when i knew obviously there, there was something very, very wrong. Why weren't they allowed to set up the flowers? Because her soon-to-be, not-to-be husband now didn't pay the full amount for the venue. He never intended to marry her. No.
Starting point is 00:33:33 So this was a premeditated thing. What an assbag. He already obviously had cold feet because he hadn't paid fully for a bunch of stuff. Tell the poor woman before the day. I never understand this. Guys who just put it off, put it off, put it off, put it off, like it's going to make it better. It's poor woman before the day. I never understand this. Guys who just put it off, put it off, put it off, put it off, like it's going to make it better. It's going to make it worse.
Starting point is 00:33:50 Just bite the bullet and say, hey, I don't want to marry you. They'll much prefer that than standing at the altar waiting for you to arrive. 125 guests and a total cost of about $28,000. Wow.
Starting point is 00:34:06 You wouldn't care about the money at that stage. You know why? Because you'd be blind with rage. You'd be furious. That's the only upside, is you're not concerned about how much money you've lost because you're busy planning an assassination. Do you remember that film with Julia Roberts and it was called Runaway Bride?
Starting point is 00:34:20 Yeah. Did you ever watch it? No, but I know what it's about. I'm never talking to you about movies anymore because you haven't seen anything. Secret of Pretty Woman. Moving on. Anyway, we thought we'd ask you guys this afternoon
Starting point is 00:34:35 because obviously this one was called off on the day. On the day of the wedding, yeah. Well, it wasn't even called off. He never even told us. He just didn't show up. Just didn't show up, didn't pay for things. But we want to know how close to the wedding was it called off for you or maybe someone you know?
Starting point is 00:34:50 At the altar on the day of the wedding. A couple of weeks before? The day before the wedding. He puts in a phone call from the stag do and says, I can't do this. What was it? How close to the wedding did someone or both of them go, we're not doing this. We're out. I'm out.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Pulling the pin. I thought I was going to be with you forever. I'm going to be with you for never. Oh, 800-DIAL-ZM. You can remain anonymous or you can text us on 9696. Kia ora, I'm Jane Yee. I'm Alex Casey. And I'm Duncan Grave. We are the hosts of The Real Pod

Bree and Clint. How close to the wedding was it called off? Do you remember when, I think it was last year, you and I got invited to a wedding?
Starting point is 00:35:58 That's right. Somebody listens to this show, so we want you guys at the wedding. And we were so stoked. We were like, what an amazing offer. Yeah, we'll come keen for a free wedding I mean keen to come to your wedding
Starting point is 00:36:07 free food awesome anyway we were like yeah we'll come for sure putting our diaries and everything yeah and then about a month later
Starting point is 00:36:15 we got another follow up email being like hey sorry the wedding's called off and we were like oh but also what's the tea
Starting point is 00:36:23 but we didn't know them no we couldn't go into too much detail and I was like do we get a vouch, what's the tea? But we didn't know them. No. We couldn't go into too much detail. And I was like, do we get a voucher for the meal? I'm just kidding. I've already bought a suit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:33 What am I supposed to do with that? It's happened to a woman over in the States where her partner of 10 years, she found out on the day, wasn't coming to the wedding and he told her that his Uber had gotten lost. Turns out he just wasn't coming. Real stand-up bloke. She dodged a bullet in that sense.
Starting point is 00:36:48 I agree. Still, it didn't make it any less awkward on the day when she's there with all the guests and he wasn't. So we've asked how close to the wedding was it called off? Hi, Crystal. Hi, Crystal. Hello. Was it your wedding?
Starting point is 00:37:00 It was my wedding. Oh, your wedding. What happened? Ah, he cheated on me a few months before our wedding. No way. He did, so I held onto his passport so he couldn't board our flight and our cruise ship. Wow. Yeah, you did.
Starting point is 00:37:17 And you obviously went on the trip without him. Yeah, and we took his best mate with us and my family and we had an amazing time. That's so good. That is so good. I love that, Crystal. You should have tagged him in all of the photos that you put up as well. Oh, I didn't tag him, but there are a few photos, so he's probably seen them.
Starting point is 00:37:38 So he cheated a couple of months before the wedding. When did you find out? How close to the wedding did you find out about the cheating? About six weeks. And was he going to tell you? That's so close. Was he going to tell? How close to the wedding did you find out about the cheating? About six weeks. And was he going to tell you? That's so close. Was he going to tell you or was he going to marry you without telling you? He probably would have married me without telling me because
Starting point is 00:37:53 I had to get my mum to get him out of my house. Crystal, how did you find out? Can I ask? You don't have to say, but... His phone kept going off and he was playing rugby and he had asked me to hold on to it. You had a gut feeling, didn't you? Well, you asked me to hold it.
Starting point is 00:38:08 No, I just got sick of it ringing and I was like, oh. I'm going to have a look. Yeah, and then I was like, uh-oh. Wow. Six weeks out, I'd be absolutely roped. We say this all the time, Crystal, but you dodged a bullet, mate. Well done. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:23 Absolutely. Dodged a bullet and you had a great time. On the cruise ship. Yeah. And it might be the last time you can go on a cruise ship for a long, long time. So, double joke on him. Stacey's here. Hi, Stacey. Hi, Stace. Hi. Was it your wedding that was called off? Yeah, it was.
Starting point is 00:38:37 It was a week before my wedding. A week? Why? Yeah. He went on his stag do and he cheated on me with a guy from high school. No! He cheated on me with a guy from high school.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Was the guy on the stag do? No, he wasn't on the stag do. He just ran into him? No, my fiancé at the time was a dairy farmer. Yeah. And he asked me to hold his phone for work purposes
Starting point is 00:39:09 because one of the fellow milkers called in sick. Yeah. And his phone went off and it was some naughty photos from the person he'd cheated on me with. No. And how did you confront him about that? Because obviously that's a pretty big... Bombshell.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Bombshell and thing to deal with. It was, yes. No, I just kind of came straight out with it that night when he got home from work. Can I ask Stacey, is he actually gay now or was that just like a... He's come out as bisexual. He's come out as bisexual, yeah, right. Fascinating. You found out the same way as the last caller.
Starting point is 00:39:45 You were just holding your phone. So the moral of the story is, that's what we've learned, don't ask your partner to hold your phone. Ever. Yeah, pretty much. Especially not if you're doing those things. Brie and Clint. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:39:56 I heard she bought all her followers. She would. She's such a bitch. It's time for Brie and Clint's Instafame game. First simple game. Clint and I will go head to head guessing how many followers celebrities have closest to wins a point. First three takes the game. When it's in the budget, we like to play for you guys.

Starting point is 00:45:24 Yeah, I can't say their name. reasons. That was very elusive. Let's just say they publish a lot of stuff. Let's just leave it at that. Rhymes with. No, no rhyming. Don't be immature. No, I just was going to tell you a story. Don't even bluff.
Starting point is 00:45:36 I was going to tell you a story about how we went to bluff that time. That's enough. You're so tough. They were tempted to rank New Zealand's top five peanut butters. Now, these are the peanut butters that you can buy. I'm here for this. Peanut butters for me. Power rankings.
Starting point is 00:45:54 I'm not sure they've nailed it, but we'll go through. They took the brave move of giving it a go, so we've got to at least acknowledge that. In no particular order, their top five peanut butters are Fix and Fog, Coffee and Maple. Bougie. Bougie. Bougie, but delicious.
Starting point is 00:46:08 Love a Fix and Fog. Nut Brothers Super Crunch. Ooh, Nut Brothers. Can't say I've had a Nut Brothers, but I've heard great things. Let's give it a go. Super Crunch sounds like it's a bit different. Yeah, I'd jump on the Nut Brothers. 40 Thieves, Scorched Almond and Cocoa.

Yeah, that sounds divine. It does sound wonderful. I'd love to get on board that. Oh, this is the one that the Paleos eat. Ceres Organics peanut butter, crunchy.
Starting point is 00:46:41 What makes it, like, different? It's organic. Oh, what does that mean though? The peanuts, they're organic. Yeah, but what's different from an organic peanut to a normal peanut? It means the soil in which the peanuts were grown has had no artificial fertilizer used. Or at least that's what they tell you on the jar. And finally, bega peanut butter.
Starting point is 00:47:02 Better buy bega. Better buy bega. Yeah. Where's Pix peanut butter. Better buy Bega. Better buy Bega. Yeah. Where's Pix peanut butter? Excuse me. I love, love, love Pix peanut butter. Don't make me forward this list. It's so juicy and delicious.
Starting point is 00:47:14 Yeah, the Ministry of Primary Industries. If Pix is not on here, then I don't know how seriously I can take it. They're the pride of Nelson. Yeah. They're literally. And it's kick-ass peanut butter. And it's kick-ass peanut butter. And it's kick-ass peanut butter.
Starting point is 00:47:25 It's great peanut butter. I feel like it's the default. I mean, I know it's. I use half a jar of Picks peanut butter in a spicy peanut and coconut milk ramen last night. Like I use half of it. Well, half a jar. Half a jar. I was making it for five people.
Starting point is 00:47:41 Yeah, right. Okay. But it makes the dish. Like having that peanut butter. I buy the bulk jar. I buy the one kilo jar. Oh yeah, that's good stuff. Special mentions to Eater and Kraft,
Starting point is 00:47:50 which you're lying if you say you didn't have those in your pantry growing up. Yeah, love good Kraft peanut butter. But they're not in the top five. Got me thinking, there's one way to know if you and a certain person
Starting point is 00:48:01 are compatible as friends or even as lovers. And that's to find out if you're peanut butter compatible. If you're a certain person are compatible as friends or even as lovers. And that's to find out if you're peanut butter compatible. If you're a crunchy or a smooth. It's a big question in a relationship. I don't know this about you. I've never enjoyed a continental breakfast with you. Yeah, can't say I've ever seen you
Starting point is 00:48:15 down some peanut butter. No. We've never done it together. I do it on the daily. I've just never been with you at that time of day. Peanut butter and celery? Yes, please. So what we're going to do is we're going to figure it out Oh first of all, let's see what the mood of the nation is Brewster Anastasia's been polling the people on Instagram Yes
Starting point is 00:48:31 What's the results? Crunchy versus smooth? Crunchy won by 5% at 55% Crunchy? Pretty close Don't reveal your politics yet, okay? I was just saying it was pretty close At the exact same time we're going to find out how compatible we are as friends and lovers. Crunch, you're smooth.
Starting point is 00:48:47 Three, two, one. Crunchy. Oh, my God. I knew we were friends. It's got to be crunchy. It's time for some signature Breeinclint aviation news. Whoa. That jet plane.
Starting point is 00:48:58 No, that's how you know. That was flying straight over us just then. That's how you know you're listening to the Breeinclint show. It should sound like that's flying. If you've got a good to the Brian Clint show. It should sound like that's flying, if you've got a good stereo, turn this up. It should sound like the jet plane is flying
Starting point is 00:49:08 straight through your car. Have a listen. Hang on, have a listen. Does it work? I think it works. It goes through my headphones like that. Depends if you've got
Starting point is 00:49:17 a car stereo or a UE Boom stuck to the dashboard. This story is a Kiwi story, but I don't think we should be proud of it. Why? What's happened? An Air New Zealand pilot has been reminded of the correct procedure
Starting point is 00:49:33 after he invited an intoxicated female passenger to travel in the cockpit of a Wellington to Nelson flight. The woman travelled in the jump seat of the Q300 plane. And look, I get it. I understand. You're a pilot and with that comes a lot of prestige. Do you get it though? Because like...
Starting point is 00:49:57 You've got the uniform, you've got the hat, you've got the badge with the little wings on it. You might even have the aviator sunglasses. Like just because, you know, we work in radio but if someone walked through and I thought, oh, I want to impress them by swearing a bunch of times, I still can't do that. Oh, I
Starting point is 00:50:13 see what you mean. No, the equivalent of this would be you bringing a drunk guy in here during the show because you wanted to bash him. That's the equivalent of it. And he sits in the corner of the studio. Is that the equivalent? Because, I mean, bringing a drunk guy in here I don't think is going to bash him. That's the equivalent of it. And he sits in the corner of the studio. Is that the equivalent? Because, I mean, bringing a drunk guy in here, I don't think it's going to hurt anyone.
Starting point is 00:50:29 Well, the liability is that he could say some swear words while we're live. Oh, look out. Whereas the liability of the plane is that something goes wrong and she grabs the wheel. And she's like, let me have a go. Let me have a go. I want a turn. I can do it.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Or she spells a glass of her rosé that she smuggled out of the Kuru Lounge into the control panel. Oh, really? What was he thinking? Something like that. He was, I don't know. I don't know. But it does reek of trying to impress someone, you know?
Starting point is 00:50:57 Yeah, I'm going to show off a little bit. Yeah, and you're using the cards that you've got, you know? You're going, all right, what are the assets at hand? What's the most impressive thing about me? Oh, that's right, I'm a pilot. I'm going to use that. Anyway, the other passengers on the plane weren't impressed and they complained about it.
Starting point is 00:51:11 Well, it is very unprofessional. Like, it is very unprofessional. What did he do? Did he put it on autopilot and then go back to, like, row 3F and he's like, hey, babe, if you want to get upgraded. Yeah, like, how did he even get her up there? Congratulations, you've been selected for upgrade of the day. You're coming up to the cockpit with me. She's like, cool, is there free booze up there? Because that's the only reason I want to come.
Starting point is 00:51:37 And he's like, yeah, just come and there will be. She's like, cool. It reeks of doing something to, and a lot of guys have been guilty of this, doing something maybe questionable to impress someone, often of the opposite sex, not always of the opposite sex, but to impress someone that you're looking to. What do you mean? Like a burnout? Like a burnout. Absolutely right. Look at this sick burnout I'm going to do.
Starting point is 00:51:59 A burnout that ends up in a power pole. God, the amount of times a guy has looked at me through a window in his speed dealer Oakley Sonny's and he's thought, I'm going to drop this sick burnout and he's yelled, hey, hey, hey, check this out. And it's always the same pathetic burnout. I'm like, come on, give it some if you're going to do a burnout. For God's sake, you've made me look. Burnouts, backflips, buying the most.
Starting point is 00:52:26 Backflips? No, see, I would be impressed by a backflip. Would you be impressed by a backflip? Yeah, I would. Would you? Especially at my age. In the campgrounds of R&V, you're like, that guy's going to give me babies. I'd be like, that's a very athletic man.
Starting point is 00:52:38 Maybe buying the most expensive drink at a bar just to impress you. We want to know on 0800DialZM this afternoon, what did they do to impress you? And bonus point, did it work? You know? Yeah. Because you might be a sucker for a burnout. Maybe it was an impromptu arm wrestle in the middle of a bar.
Starting point is 00:52:56 Yeah. Maybe they whipped their shirt off. Where would it be appropriate? Grocery store. Grocery store. They whipped their shirt off at Fruit World and you were like, damn, this is working. It shouldn't, but it is.
Starting point is 00:53:07 We want to know, 0800 dial ZM or you can text the thing they did to impress you to 9696. Brianne Clint. What does someone do to try and impress you? It's a classic mating tactic of the human species. It's like peacocking. It's like putting up your peacock feathers. You do your most impressive move to see if it'll pay off.
Starting point is 00:53:26 And very rarely does it pay off. Usually it's the worm and you end up hitting your chin on the dance floor and splitting it open. I've literally done that. Yeah, same. There's a pilot who's in trouble because he invited a female into the cockpit during a flight. I thought that's not allowed anymore.
Starting point is 00:53:44 Like you can't invite anyone into the cockpit. It's heavily frowned upon. Right. Well, aviation's very relaxed in New Zealand. I know. When I first got to New Zealand. You just walk out to the tarmac and pick a plane. I was going on a rural flight and I was like, okay, where's the security?
Starting point is 00:53:58 And they're like, oh, there's no security. And I was like, what? Yeah, yeah. And then obviously the bigger planes. You're going to x-ray my bag? And they say to you, why, do we need to x-ray your bag? And then Clint's like, yeah, we trust people here. And I was like, that's nice.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Nathan's called up. Hey, Nathan. Hello, Nathan. Hi. Were you doing the impressing or was someone trying to impress you? Oh, it was my brother trying to impress my now wife. He was on my motorbike trying to pop a wheelie,
Starting point is 00:54:24 but he went straight to the river. Oh, no. Is that trying to impress my now wife. He was on my motorbike trying to pop a wheelie, but he went straight for the river. Oh, no. Is that why she married you instead? Well, no, I was her best mate for I don't know how many years, but, yeah, I didn't tell him the river was ahead. Yeah, right. Okay. He found out pretty quick, though, Nathan.
Starting point is 00:54:38 Was it his motorbike? No, it was mine. Yeah, right. Did you ruin it? I didn't care. I just sat there laughing. It would have been pretty funny. I like Nathan. He's a straight-up guy. Matthew's here. G'day, Matthew. Yeah, right. Did you ruin it? I didn't care. I just sat there laughing. It would have been pretty funny. I like Nathan.
Starting point is 00:54:46 He's a straight up guy. Matthew's here. G'day, Matthew. Hello, Matt. Yeah, g'day. How you going? Good, thanks. What did you do to impress a girl, Matt?
Starting point is 00:54:55 I was at a music festival and decided to whip out my nunchuck skills around the campsite. Is that a euphemism? No. Yeah, yeah. Real nunchucks or figurative nunchucks? Like wood, proper wooden ones. Is that a metaphor for something, Matt? Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Starting point is 00:55:12 Stop for a second. This goes back to exactly what Brie was talking about and how laxed New Zealand is. You were able to get nunchucks into a music festival. Yeah, it was real casual. There was no picking bags or anything. And it was recreational. You know, people spin around their poi and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Recreational nunchucks. Yeah, you know how it is. Oh, wait, so they were real nunchucks? Yeah, but just used, like, Bruce Lee would, not on anybody. You don't have to justify it to us, Matthew. Where was the music festival? It was like a parachute music festival. Say no more.
Starting point is 00:55:47 You were in Hamilton. I was in Hamilton, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so you pulled out some nunchucks to impress a girl and did it work? Yep, yep. Married to her 11 years later now.
Starting point is 00:55:56 Whoa! That's impressive. So you must be all right on the nunchucks, Matt. Not really, actually. I'm surprised, thinking back, that it worked, but yeah. Good, you're inspiring a whole new generation of nunchucks, Matt. Not really, actually. I'm surprised, thinking back, that it works. But, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:08 Good, you're inspiring a whole new generation of nunchuckers. Someone texted and said, back in my younger years, I ended up seeing a guy 16 years older than me. I told him how much I, excuse me,
Starting point is 00:56:16 I told him how much I loved the Audi Q7. Next week, he bought one for me. Four years later, I found out how much debt he had got into trying to impress multiple women at the same time. He bought you an Audi Q7.
Starting point is 00:56:30 That is too much and to be honest that nah. That's a red flag. Yeah nah. If someone shows up with a car for you that's a um. A pony I'll take. Yeah let's step it back a bit. Jase hi. Jase. Hello, Jesse.
Starting point is 00:56:45 Oh, Jesse. How's it going? Sorry, Jesse, sorry. Was it you that was trying to impress someone? Yeah, it was my partner at the time was trying to do a burnout around the runabout. Yes, Jesse. I smashed my old Ford up on the curb and snapped the wheel off. You actually did a burnout to impress a girl?
Starting point is 00:57:02 Yeah, I had a car full of mates at the back too, so. Okay. How bad was it smashed, Jesse? I snapped the wheel off. What? You snapped the wheel off? The important question though, the important question. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:17 Did it work? Was the girl impressed? She was. I've been together 14 years with three sons. There it goes. Nice, Jesse. Nice. See? See what I was talking about? If you're going to do a burnout, go all in like Jesse. Snap the wheel off. Hey, congrats, Jesse.
Starting point is 00:57:33 Thanks for calling us, man. We appreciate it. Thank you. All good. Bree and Clint. Hey. It's my birthday. It's my birthday.
Starting point is 00:57:41 Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger. All right, Birthday banger time. Three people's birthdays. What was top of the charts on their 16th? We're about to figure out. Every damn day we do this. At this damn time. Every goddamn day.
Starting point is 00:57:57 Sam, we do it for you, okay? Sweet. Nice. Nice. Sam, what's your birthday? The 20th of October, 1992. All right, you were 16 in 2008 on the 20th of October. And Sam, here's your birthday banger.
Starting point is 00:58:14 Live your life. You said it's less than I've had, but I just live your life. Sam, that is a damn good birthday banger. Live your life. That's a banger for sure. That is a banger, yep. That's why we do this damn feature. I like that one, Sam.
Starting point is 00:58:31 I think that's a good one. Yep, let's get one on for Sarah. Hi, Sarah. Hi, Sarah. Hi there, guys. How are you? I'm great, and yourself? They are not too bad.
Starting point is 00:58:40 Sarah, let's do your birthday banger. What's your birthday? 28th of May, 1972. All right, you were 16 in your birthday? 28th of May 1972. Alright, you were 16 in 1988 on the 28th of May and on that day this was number one. Ooh baby do you know what that's worth? Ooh heaven is a place on earth. I love this song. I love this song. Awesome.
Starting point is 00:59:04 Does it bring back good memories for you, Sarah? No. That's a shame, Sarah. Why not? What is the memories it brings back? No comment. No comment. Okay, no problem.
Starting point is 00:59:17 When she was 16, I'm going to say she was at parties. Heaven wasn't a place on earth. Heather's here. Hi, Heather. Hi. Hello, Heather. Hi. Hello, mate. What's your birthday? My birthday is the 3rd of January, 1991.
Starting point is 00:59:33 Same birthday as me, Heather. Crazy. Yeah. Well, you're a bit younger than me, but you were 16 in 2007 on the 3rd of January and here's your birthday back. What? Smack that all on the floor. Smack that, give me some more.
Starting point is 00:59:48 Smack that till you get sore. Smack that. With that acorn. Smack that all on the floor. Smack that. Don't know if that song has aged all that well. That's what I was going to say. Is it 2020?
Starting point is 01:00:00 It hasn't. It hasn't aged. It's horribly hasn't in Heather. There's probably out there some real sanitised radio version that we could play, but it would be missing half the words. Yeah. Like it would be. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:00:11 Yeah, it would sound like your radio was cutting out. Isn't it crazy? Like that was, what, 2007? Yeah. And obviously it was super popular, but now everyone's like, I can't say that on the radio. It was literally on the radio four times a day. I think Sarah might have won birthday banger today.
Starting point is 01:00:29 I'm going to have to vote T.I. Live your life. You're going to vote T.I. Rihanna? Yeah. Okay, I'm going to vote for Heaven is a Place on Earth by Belinda Kark. Can't even say her last name. Can't say her last name. Okay, we're going to split vote.
Starting point is 01:00:43 Let's go to producer Ben. Who's winning birthday banger today? I'm going to go Heaven is a Place on Earth. I'm going to go with that one. Yeah, right. We haven't played it before.
Starting point is 01:00:55 No, we've never played it before. Whenever Bree doesn't go for it, it makes me nervous that it's not a good choice. I don't mind the song. It's just not one of those songs where I'm like, oh my God, that's huge.
Starting point is 01:01:04 Okay. But I don't mind the song. It's a good song. Okay, where I'm like, oh, my God, that's huge. Okay. But I don't mind the song. It's a good song. Okay, let us know in the text machine if you think we've made the right decision. And Sarah, you've won Birthday Banger. Congratulations. It's awesome.
Starting point is 01:01:12 Thank you very much. Even though it doesn't bring back good memories, Sarah, we're going to play it for you right now. Thank you, guys. Let's traumatise Sarah. I'm brilliant. This is the winner of Birthday Banger. Zinim.
Starting point is 01:01:22 They say in heaven, love comes first. of Birthday Bangers. It's him. When the night falls down I wait for you and you come around And the world's alive With the sound of kids on the street outside Bye. Oh, baby, do you know what that's worth? Ooh, heaven is a place on earth They say in heaven, love comes first We'll make heaven a place on earth Ooh, heaven is a place on earth
Starting point is 01:02:40 When I feel alone I reach for you and you bring me home When I'm lost at sea I hear your voice and it carries me In this world we're just beginning To understand the miracle of living. Baby, I was afraid before. I'm not afraid anymore.
Starting point is 01:03:14 Oh, baby, do you know what that's worth? Oh, heaven is a place on earth. They say in heaven, love comes first. We'll make right back. In this world we're just beginning To understand the miracle of living Baby, I was afraid before I'm not afraid anymore Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth? Ooh, heaven is a place on earth They say in heaven, love comes first
Starting point is 01:04:43 Who makes heaven a place on earth? City and Bree and Clint. The winner of Birthday Banger for Sarah is Belinda Carlyle. And Heaven is a Place on Earth. Mixed response. I think Overwhelm are largely a positive response to that choice of birthday banger, so we're good. Yeah. I think we're good.
Starting point is 01:05:12 Someone said, is this The Breeze? When did The Breeze get new hosts? No, it's not. It's Coast. Thank you very much. I'll show you that it's not The Breeze. Watch this. Let's get it.
Starting point is 01:05:24 Does The Breeze play this? They might these days, actually. We just decided we don't even know if we can play this. Yeah, we don't want to play this. So, yeah. Bree and Clint. Happy birthday, Instagram. Happy birthday to you.
Starting point is 01:05:39 How old's Instagram? The photo sharing app. Like I need to explain to you what Instagram is? I was going to say, tell me more, Clint. The popular app where people share their favourite pictures, heavily filtered with captions that are sometimes obscure, today turns 10 years old. October 6, 2010 is when Instagram went live.
Starting point is 01:05:56 Never heard of it. Instagram. You should check it out, man. Is it cool? Is it still cool? I think it's still cool. It's still where I spend 90% of my time on the internet Yeah, I think so too
Starting point is 01:06:07 And I think they've evolved They've added Instagram story And now they've added reels It makes me wonder, have I been on Instagram for 10 years? Have you been on Instagram for 10 years? I have no idea, I think I was a little bit late I'm getting like 11 year old Facebook memories now 12, yeah, maybe 12
Starting point is 01:06:23 Maybe, I don't know I've been on Facebook for, hold on I'm getting like 11-year-old Facebook memories now. Yeah, right. Maybe 12, maybe, I don't know. I've been on Facebook for, hold on, 13 years. Yeah, right. Yeah. Good. I'm glad you took some time down to figure that out. That's okay.
Starting point is 01:06:35 You're welcome. Something about an Instagram memory that I feel is more special than a Facebook memory because you put more thought into an Instagram post often. You post less. So you, um, no? Do you? I don't know. I think maybe it's different for everyone. Anyway, we thought on the 10-year anniversary of Instagram,
Starting point is 01:06:51 we would have producer Anastasia do some digging in our personal Instagrams to find the good stuff. So... Can't wait for these results, Anastasia. Anastasia, please come to us with your findings. So basically, here is Bree's first Instagram. Bree, do you want to tell us what you saw and what you're seeing in this picture? Oh, I posted a picture of a coffee.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Wow. This is how old this is because I don't even drink coffee anymore. Yeah, right. And a lovely filter that's kind of given it a blue look. Those are the early, early, early Instagram filters. And I didn't even put a caption. God, I was crap at Instagram. And that was back in July 2012.
Starting point is 01:07:31 Okay, 2012 you joined. So you've been on for eight years. So that means I was two years after it came out. Yeah, you're a bit slow to the social media. Very slow. Okay, well done. Clint followed suit in September. Clint, tell us what you're seeing in your first post.
Starting point is 01:07:44 Oh, this is me and my friend Connor and Bryce and that's me biting into an Olympic, a real Olympic silver medal. We were at a party and Blair Truke was there and he bought his medal with him. Why did he bring his medal? Because it was a party and he
Starting point is 01:07:59 just won an Olympic medal. So it wasn't like a year after the Olympics and he just bought the medal with it? No, no, no. It was straight up in the Olympics. I reckon this is a pretty good first Instagram. That's a pretty strong post. That's way better than I thought my first post would be.
Starting point is 01:08:11 So I went digging a little bit deeper and found myself stopping at some interesting photos. Bree, do you want to tell us what was happening in this picture? Oh. Whoa. Yeah. Have you had a nose job? No, that's when I got assaulted on a night out.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Oh, yeah. Oh, buzzy. It was New Year's and... Way to bring it up, Anastasia. Yeah, good one. No, it's fine, it's fine. And yeah, she broke my nose in a lot of places. Did you put it in there because you thought she'd had some nose jobs?
Starting point is 01:08:43 Did you think I had a nose job? I thought this was going to be a Producer Anastasia exclusive. No. That's turned on me. What year is that? That was the same year, October 2012.
Starting point is 01:08:53 You've still got that same t-shirt. Yeah, I do still have that same t-shirt, yeah. Eight years old. Right, okay. It's an interesting picture though. I would have pulled it out too. Please, I hope the next one
Starting point is 01:09:02 is a traumatic event from my past. I think it is. This is Clint's interesting photo. Oh no, oh no. I thought you were wearing a suit, but they've painted a suit on you. I'm wearing full body paint, except for a very small G-string, because I was the ground announcer at the annual nude rugby game in Dunedin.
Starting point is 01:09:24 You know, do you know? What happens when you sweat? It starts to run. Yeah, I bet. But I was only emceeing. I wasn't playing. Okay. Fun fact.
Starting point is 01:09:32 Doesn't mean you won't sweat. Soundkeeper Gary played in this game, and I didn't even know him at the time. No way. He was naked in this game, and I didn't even know him. So you've seen Soundkeeper Gary's winger? I have, and I have no recollection of it. Sorry, Gary.
Starting point is 01:09:43 Is it still being played? Like, is it still a thing? Yeah, it's still a thing. Yeah. That's awesome. It's pretty grim, to be honest. So then I went... I'd be keen to go.
Starting point is 01:09:52 Yeah, we'll be moving the slides very quickly. It's largely the same guys that play every year. So then I went, and obviously on Instagram, it's quite popular to be posting selfies, which can be, you know, a little bit vain sometimes. So I just wanted to see who posted the most. So Bree. What in our history of being on Instagram.
Starting point is 01:10:08 In the whole history of your posts, which is 939, you've posted 19 selfies, which is pretty good. Okay. And that comes at just over 2%. 2% of your posts are selfies. I'm happy with that. I've also had a look at Clint's, and I wanted you two just to have a wee guess
Starting point is 01:10:24 at who you thought would have the most. Well, this is a stitch-up. It'll be me. I'm going to take a wild guess and say it's Clint. It'll be me because you put me second. Right, okay. Clint had 68 selfies in the total of his 1,790 posts, which is 3.79%, so nearly double Breeze. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 01:10:42 I'm glad it's below 10%. If my selfie strike rate was above 10%, there'd be an issue. I'm more concerned that you've posted 17, nearly 1,800 times. What are you posting? Oh, you've got a baby. A lot of cat pics. He's got cats and babies. They're all cute.
Starting point is 01:10:59 I've got nothing good to post. You've got a dog now. Your post is about to go through the roof. Bram, Bram, I'm actually going to inform you. I did find a post that I feel like a lot of our listeners will enjoy a lot. Bree, can you tell us what's happening in this photo? Oh, that's my brother. It's a nude.
Starting point is 01:11:16 No, it's not. He's nude. He's not. He's got a sleeveless shirt on. It's my brother having a nap. We've never seen this picture of Bree's hot brother, Aidan. Oh, my God. Okay.
Starting point is 01:11:26 Have you screenshotted this? Because we need to share this. Yeah, yeah. Is that okay if we reshare the post, Bree? Yeah, go for it. Why not? All right, cool. He looks so hot.
Starting point is 01:11:34 What year is that? That was in 2013. December 29th, so after a few beers on Christmas Day. There we go. Thank you. That's a deep dive into Instagram. Go and have a look at what your first post was tonight when you get home.
Starting point is 01:11:50 Scroll all the way back and see what you did the first time. We'd love to see it. Send it to our Instagram. I'd love to post a few. Yeah. That's where you can find the picture of Bree's hot brother. It's going live to our story now. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 01:12:01 Bree and Clint. I did say we have some more maritime news, which we haven't had in a while. No. And it's not only maritime news, it's spooky maritime news. That's right. This doesn't come around all that often, so we need to really savour these moments, Clint. Have you ever thought about giant cruise liners, big cruise ships, what happens to them when they retire?
Starting point is 01:12:33 Yeah, they go to a cruise ship rest home and they play cruise ship petanque and cruise ship chess in a big lounge. And they have dinner at five? Yeah. No, they actually go to a cruise ship graveyard. Really? That's right. Oh, I've seen this. I've seen the Google Earth photos.
Starting point is 01:12:45 Similar to where planes go. And isn't that in the middle of some desert? Yeah, it's in the Nevada desert. In Arizona, actually, I think. Well, the cruise ship graveyard, this one is on the east coast of Turkey. And it's where all the unwanted cruise ships go, including massive luxury cruise liners
Starting point is 01:13:06 where they are broken down and used for scrap metal. You know what's a weird concept? A cruise ship being unwanted. Like, you've got to think that it's so big and there's so much stuff on it. Like, how old does it have to be? When P&O goes,
Starting point is 01:13:19 we don't want that anymore, surely there's someone around who'd go, well, I'll have that. Like, if you said to me, we don't want this cruise ship anymore, I'll be like, I'll have that. Yeah. I don't know where I'd put it, but you'd go, surely, surely I can do something.
Starting point is 01:13:30 Surely we can do something with it. A giant cruise ship. What you do is you pull it up on the shores of Lake Taupo and you turn it into a McDonald's restaurant. Or you turn it into a big hotel. Or, yeah, that's even a better idea. Yeah. A McDonald's.
Starting point is 01:13:42 How many restaurants could you get in there? Well, Taupo's got a McDonald's restaurant inside a old aeroplane. Yeah, see, that's even a better idea. Yeah. McDonald's. How many restaurants could you get in there? Well, Topol's got a McDonald's restaurant inside an old airplane. Yeah, see, that's cool, isn't it? So this is the logical progression. Did you know since COVID hit... Probably some cheap airplanes going at the moment too, if you're listening, McDonald's. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:57 Since COVID hit, the cruise industry has been pretty much one of the biggest, yeah, biggest multi-billion dollar industries to face crisis. Yeah, them and the planes. Them and the planes, yeah. Some of the cruise liners that have been laid to rest in this graveyard, if you're a big cruise liner fan, the carnival imagination, the carnival inspiration, and the carnival fantasy.
Starting point is 01:14:22 Three of my favourite carnivals. I know, same. Damn. I know. It's Damn. I know. It's the thing I'll never get to ride atop those beauties ever again. Never get to dine at their buffet. Don't worry, there's new ones. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 01:14:35 You just go to the new ones. I'm not going on a cruise ship anytime soon, but thanks, Bree. That was some wonderful... You didn't make it very spooky. Well, it is spooky. You should see them. Google it if you want to. Can't. It's radio. It's kind of like The Lion King where they go to the elephant graveyard
Starting point is 01:14:50 but instead of elephants, it's cruise ships. It's cruise ships. That's your spooky maritime news, New Zealand. ZM's Free and Clint. The podcast with mobile smiles.
