Oh, they're yelling at us.
They want us to start the podcast intro.
Why?
Why are you yelling at us all the time?
Yeah, come on, man.
Chill out.
We're so nice to you guys.
Take some CBD oil and chill out, okay?
Ellie and I had CBD lollies when we went to LA that time.
I'm so excited for weed to get legalized so I can try CBD.
I am.
I am.
Because the hallucinogenic side of marijuana doesn't really agree with me.
It makes me very anxious. Same.
It makes me overthink things. I get real paranoid.
But CBD sounds wonderful. I always think
I'm in a submarine. You think you're
in a submarine? What colour is it?
Do you mean like an enclosed space?
Yeah, I always feel like
and I think it's because... How would you know what colour the submarine
was if you were inside it? Yeah, I'm on the inside.
Yeah, well she might have had to go through
the door. She might have swum in.
You know what it is?
I always feel like I can hear myself talking back to myself.
Yeah, right.
Like echoing.
You can't swim into a submarine.
Yeah, I did.
What do you mean you can't swim?
She might have walked on the platform.
You can't enter a submarine by swimming into it.
I didn't say that.
No, Anastasia did.
I was just playing on the song.
Yeah, who's swimming into a submarine?
No, we all live in a yellow submarine
I just was hoping it might be tied to that song
But it's just pointless
No I did get where she was going
Yeah
Thank you
I just wanted to
Well maybe you might have had a deep connection with that song
Back to me and wanting to do CBD oil
Yeah
Keen
I'm real keen
So I'm voting yes
I have a question about how you take it
Oh yeah
Up the bum Up the bum.
It's called shelving.
Is it? How do you know that?
Has anyone stuck anything up their bum before?
Oh, can I?
What a genuine question.
Has anyone had a finger up their bum before?
Clint? No.
You said you've had your prostate checked.
No, I didn't. I said I haven't had it checked.
Well, you should go get it checked. I told you I said I haven't had it checked Oh well you should go get it checked
I told you I asked to get it checked
And the doctor laughed at me
Clint went way too early
And the doctor goes
You're way too young to be doing that
And Clint's like
No I really want it
And the doctor's like
No you're fine
And Clint's like
Can you please
Well you're telling a version of the truth
Well that is the truth
Good on you for going there
It's a version of the truth
The facts are correct.
You took creative license with the scripting.
Yeah, that was...
But I...
Yeah, okay, yeah, I did.
I asked for a checkup, and the doctor goes, okay, if you want to.
Anyway, then it was like real passive-aggressive, and he goes, okay, lie down.
And then he's just fondling...
Fondling?
Cupping my balls, and I know he doesn't want to do it, and I never wanted him to do it.
It was one of the most awkward experiences of my life.
Clint can't go. He didn't go back to that
doctor after that. I changed doctors.
He put in a complaint about you, didn't he?
No, he didn't.
That's a lie. No, I've never stuck anything
at my bum.
But more power to anyone who has.
We're not having this topic.
No, I had something I wanted to talk
about. Yeah, alright.
Because I felt like I wanted to use... CBD topic. No, I had something I wanted to talk about. Yeah, all right. Because I felt like I wanted to use-
CBD oil.
No, I wanted to use our podcast listeners for advice.
Yeah.
All right.
I, for the past seven or eight months, have been looking into getting a dog.
Oh, not that shit again.
Why?
What's so boring about it?
No, just buy the dog. That is very cute. No, I'm trying to. It's all about the journey. No, not that shit again. Why? What's so boring about it? No, just buy the dog. That is very
cute. No, I'm trying to. Buy the dog.
It's all about the journey. No, I'm trying to.
This is the problem. I have been talking
that the dog that I want
is so hard to get.
And I said to you yesterday,
I cracked the dog code, remember?
I said, whatever dog you get, you'll love it.
That's true. You will love it. Yeah, I know.
But it's also, the thing is, is that dog is a big commitment.
Yeah.
Like you have it for a long, long time.
Can't get a dud.
So, well, there's no, is there such thing as a dud?
Yeah, some of the inbred ones.
My, we got a dog that we didn't realise was inbred.
Yeah.
See, see, see, I was right. Max, and he was one of the best dogs we've ever had.
I made up a song about his knees because they were messed up.
I think the song was, huh?
So his name was Max.
He had messed up knees because he was inbred.
So we sang, I'm a dog.
I got fleas.
I'm an inbred So I got fucked up knees
That's actually quite good mate
Thank you
Well done
He didn't enjoy it very much
This is the dog that we're missing right?
Yeah
Yeah
Randomly
Don't talk to my mum about it
She's still devastated
Do you still sing her the song?
No
Time to retire the song.
Time to retire that song.
It upset her beforehand.
Anyway, I want to ask people listening if anyone has had a can or I think that's how you say it.
Canteria.
It's the dog that was in The Wizard of Oz, Toto.
That's the breed of dog and that's the dog that I've been trying to get for so long.
Do you want one with a sooty face?
I want one.
I want a darker one.
I reckon you should post a photo in the podcast group just so everyone can see.
Because I'm an older dog person and I didn't have any idea until you showed me.
Yeah, look at the black ones.
They look messy.
They look cute.
That's why I like them.
They're rough and tumble kind of dogs, like a sturdy dog.
I want to know.
Terriers are adorable. They are. They're really kind of. They've got a goodble kind of dogs, like a sturdy dog. I want to know. Terriers are adorable.
They are.
They're really kind of.
They've got a good energy to them too.
A lot of energy.
A little bit psycho, but in a good way.
Yeah.
But these dogs are really good with kids apparently.
Are you going to have a kid?
Are you going to have kids?
No, but my partner has nieces.
Oh, yeah.
I thought this was a surprise announcement.
No, no, no, no.
Let's get a dog first.
Let's have a dog first.
Let's have a dog.
Yeah, actually, really genuinely, if anyone's had one before or knows anything about them,
I'd love some advice because it's proving to be very difficult.
To what?
Buy one?
Yeah, well, there's no one that breeds them in New Zealand or very few.
That's like if you're going to run into problems here, mate.
Why?
Because it'll be hard to get second
hand parts for it.
Yeah.
This is like when you
it's like if you get
like a Saab or something.
Are you just
segueing into Audi
chat?
No.
No excuse me mate
it's very easy
through an Audi
approved dealer
to get parts.
But if you've got
like a car.
This is obviously
Clint has never
had a dog.
Yep.
No but like
you know what I mean?
You don't have to
replace parts on them. No but that was a joke but if you have to go to a dog. Yep. No, but like, you know what I mean? You don't have to replace parts on them.
No, but that was a joke.
But if you have to go to a dog specialist.
Yeah.
They're all the same.
It's a dog.
Fit.
A dog specialist.
No, but a dog,
a specialist for your breed.
I don't know.
I've never had a dog.
I don't think the breed's that special
that it has its own little.
No, no.
It's just a terrier.
Well, ask yourself another question.
Why are they so hard to get? That's the other
question you need to ask yourself. It's a great question.
Well, because we
want to do all the right things, so we want to
get it from someone who's a reputable
breeder that treats them properly and
does all the right things and, you know, because
the worst thing you can do is buy from
what's it called, a puppy
farm or somewhere that doesn't treat
them the best. Black market breeder.
Yeah.
Right, okay.
Khan Terrier.
Bree's putting a picture up in our podcast group.
It's very cute, by the way.
I reckon you should post the video that you showed me too.
Of the puppies?
It was extra cute.
So cute.
You are so dog clucky.
Which is why I said to you, just get one.
So, background though.
I have wanted a dog.
I've wanted my own dog.
Yeah, you can't take it back.
For 10 years.
And can you imagine how I feel where I'm like,
I'm finally at the point in my life where I think I can get one.
Yeah, it's time to settle down.
I just want to give it the best life ever.
So I've never been one of those people that's just got one
because I wanted one.
But I feel like I can be a good dog mum.
So any advice would be great.
I can't wait for the, we're expecting Instagram posts.
I'm not going to be one of those.
You will, you will, you will.
Everyone's like, oh my God, Brie, congrats.
No, I'll create a separate Instagram account and put all of that on there.
Oh, yeah.
Like a normal person.
And do it under an alias.
Please, woofy woof dog.
Anyway, I'll post the picture in the podcast group.
And if anyone's got any info, that would be good.
Or name suggestions.
Yeah, well.
Oh, yes.
So that's also interesting.
We're thinking for a girl, Whitney, first name, last name Houston.
Yep.
Oh, legend.
Whitney Houston.
Similar hairstyles too.
Yeah.
Fluffy hair. Because, I I mean I love Whitney Houston so much
As a tribute
For guys we haven't
We're thinking something like Ian
Or like you know
Greg
Or like a real person name
But open to suggestions
I like the name George Trudog
I thought we were going for dead 90s icons
No probably not Michael Jackson What do you say An George for a dog. No. I thought we were going for dead 90s icons. No, probably not Michael Jackson.
Right, well, it's a work in progress.
What did you say, Anastasia?
Just that George is always cute.
Toe touch.
George Michael.
George Michael.
George Michael's quite good.
Actually, I know a really cute pug called George Michael.
No.
Frenchie, sorry.
Good name, it's Seal.
Lots of options.
Yeah.
Let's get the thread running in the Facebook group.
And see what we come up with.
God, the excitement.
Pick things up.
Shut up!
Oh, I'm actually really excited.
Don't take this away from me, Ben.
I reckon this is way better than lotto chat.
That's all I'm saying.
Thank you, Anastasia.
By the way, we're in the draw for the British Lottery tonight.
I'm so excited!
No, I'm not.
I'm bringing a person into this world!
A dog and a dog.
I'm bringing a life into the world!
Here's the podcast, everybody. Enjoy.
Hey, Google.
What's the time? It's 3pm. Give or take
a minute. Alexa, play ZM
on iHeartRadio. Playing ZM
on iHeartRadio. Hey, Siri, when are
Bree and Clint on? Bree and Clint are on air
in 5, 4,
3, 2, 1.
Welcome to the show. It's 3 o'clock.
Bree and Clint, and it's time to launch Bree's big dad bod competition.
Oh, yes.
I'm so excited.
And to celebrate the occasion, I have worn active wear.
Well done.
To support the fellow dad bods.
Now, I'll just ask you the hard questions.
Have you set up the, have we got a place to send the dad bod pictures to?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I told people, send them to my Instagram.
Yeah, right, because that's what I was going to suggest.
If we're not set up and ready,
are you willing to handle all the dad bod pictures?
I am so willing to handle it.
Okay.
You can send all your pictures to at Bree Thomasel.
I will sift through them with my own two eyes.
Will you repost pictures of the hottest dad bods
to your Instagram story?
Yeah, probably, yeah.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, my favourites.
And just so you being the sole judge,
what is the criteria in your eyes of a hot dad bod?
I think a hot dad bod is, you know when you look at a body and you're like,
well, they've not put much work into that.
Right, okay, yeah.
But there's still something about it where you're like, I like that.
Do entries into your dad bod competition, do they need to be a dad?
Nah.
Yes, surely they do.
Nah.
Surely they do.
No, because I...
I thought you were literally doing this competition for Father's Day.
Yeah, true.
How am I going to get around that?
Can't have some non-dad winning a Father's Day competition.
I just don't want to discriminate
against my other
fellow dad bod
people.
You have to
discriminate against
some.
Fine.
You have to be a
dad which includes
pets.
And I would like
I mean I don't
mind a little bit
of hair.
Okay.
Doesn't have to be
a lot.
Maybe a tuft.
Up top or down
on the puku?
I'm going to say I prefer it up top, but don't mind it anyway.
What if it's just like creeping out of the boxer shorts?
Snail trail.
It takes a lot of work to get a good snail trail.
Right.
Okay.
That's the dad bod competition.
Have you figured out what the prize is?
Yeah.
I think, what did we decide on yesterday?
Because we can't give away alcohol.
Yeah.
That's a legal thing.
That's illegal.
Yeah.
So we're trying to get a barbecue.
Oh.
We are trying to get a barbecue.
Right, okay.
So if you have one that you can donate.
At the moment, we're just asking men to send in their dad bod photos
for no guaranteed reward.
But hey, you never know, there could be a barbecue.
DM them to Bree's
Instagram account. That's the methodology
we're going with. We are doing the 50k fact
of the day today. There is a question for you
just before 4 o'clock. We'll ask that.
And if you heard Fletch, Vaughan and Megan's fact of the
day this morning, then you are in
with a chance to win $500 today.
Also, one last thing. Speaking
of Fletchwater Megan,
I just wanted to say a massive congratulations to Megan and her hubby Andrew with the amazing news
that Megan and Andrew are pregnant.
Yes.
Well, Megan is the pregnant one, but you know what they say.
No, that's what they say.
They're pregnant.
You say we're both pregnant.
They're pregnant.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, it's massive news.
Amazing news.
Such cool news to wake up to today.
And such an amazing message that she shared on the show, which you can see at their Facebook page, a video of her sharing her news. Such cool news to wake up to today. And such an amazing message that she shared on the show,
which you can see at their Facebook page,
a video of her sharing her news.
There you go.
Andrew can enter the dad bod competition.
He could now, yeah.
Brian Clint, send him.
I was distracted and in track.
Brian Clint.
I don't know if you've noticed this lately, but I'm dog mad.
Who let the dogs out? Everything, but I'm dog mad.
Everything dogs.
I just love it.
I'm trying to get a dog at the moment.
Ooh.
But for now.
Controversial conversation with Ross Boss today about your dog.
I don't have a dog yet, but I said, you know, if I get one,
can I bring it into the studio?
Yeah.
And he was like.
He's very noncommittal.
No.
Yeah.
And I was like, well, meet it first.
And he's like, no. Anyway,-committal. No. Yeah. And I was like, well, meet it first. And he's like, no.
Anyway, that'll be a conversation for later on.
But this got me excited because if I do get a dog, there is a new product on the market that I feel I'm all about.
Right.
So there's a company, I'm pretty sure this is in the States, unfortunately,
but hopefully it will come to New Zealand,
from a company called Bush, and they've unveiled a new product
just for your dog.
Okay.
What are your thoughts on dog beer?
Oh, wow.
Dog beer.
Dog beer.
It's called Dog Brew.
It's made specially for your dog.
It launched on August 26th, National Dog beer. It's called Dog Brew. It's made specially for your dog.
It launched on August 26th, National Dog Day.
The first batch has already sold out,
and they're pretty much calling it, well, I'm calling it,
Hair of the Dog.
Quite good.
It's not bad.
What's doggy about it? Because, like, what is it that a dog would go,
is it meat flavoured?
So, obviously, don't give alcohol or actual beer to your dog
because it is poisonous.
You can't do that.
I've seen some tradies give their dog a scull of their beer on Fridays.
Yeah, but don't do it.
It's not recommended.
Corona.
Apparently Corona is dog's favourite beer.
No, no, no.
Don't do that.
You can give them this beer though because it's made with vegetables,
herbs, spices, water, pork broth to provide
the dog with a nutritious and tasty snack whilst also enjoying a frothy one with you.
Got it.
It's a savoury beer for the dog.
Yeah, I like it.
Can you imagine?
You get home.
You're going to have a cold one on a Friday afternoon.
Your best friend comes in.
He goes, what do I get?
You crack him a beer and you share it together.
Oh, the best friend is the dog.
Got you, got you, got you.
Can you imagine you come home from town, though,
and you're steamed and you're like, kick-ons?
And all that's in the fridge is a can of dog brew.
I guarantee you that someone's going to...
Don't mind a bit of bone broth.
Someone's going to crack themselves a dog brew by accident one time.
It's going to happen.
Would you finish it?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Depends.
Might not be too bad.
You can get a four-pack of dog brew for about $10.
Oh, I hate a four-pack.
Since when did four-packs become a thing?
It's six-pack or 12-pack.
Yeah, what's going on with the four-pack?
Stop trying to make four-packs a thing.
Although I do love $1 from every four-pack sold goes to the Animal Society.
There you go.
Which is lovely.
Dog beer.
Some dogs have better diets than their owners.
I know.
Some dogs live the life.
Some people, yeah, treat their dogs like kings and queens.
I've seen dogs get cooked eye fillet steaks before.
I've seen cats be served pan fried fish at the dinner table.
Yeah, I've seen some people cook their dogs a full beef shrugging off.
Like full on.
And I'm like, whoa, that looks delicious.
Can I have what he's having?
And a dog brew, please.
Yeah.
We want to ask you this afternoon,
and I feel like we're going to get some really weird
and far out there stuff.
Is your dog eating, dog or cat, eating fancier than you?
Like what are you serving up to your pet where you're, like, putting in the hard yards
to make it real nice?
You're slaving over a hot stove for your animal.
How much do you spend on the grocery bill
on your cat or dog each week?
Yeah, are you putting something in the slow cooker
for your animal?
Did you buy your dog a Thermomix?
0800-DIAL-ZM or you can text us on 9696.
Bree and Clint.
New products on the table, on the market for your best friend, your dog.
It's dog beer.
A bit of dog brew.
It's a mix of, you know, vegetables, spices, broth,
so you can enjoy a beer with your dog.
Sounds like a disgusting beer, but I'm a human, so I would say that.
I reckon the dogs would lap it up.
Yeah. Wouldn't they? The dog's having one lick
of Heineken. He's like, oh, yuck.
No. Yuck. It's not
savoury. Where's the
beef?
So we want to know, are you
a fancy feeder? Do you
treat your animals to meals
so fancy you're almost
neglecting your own dietary requirements.
Yeah, do your animals eat better than you?
Because you'd be a sitter for dog beer.
Vanessa's here.
Hi, Vanessa.
Hi, Vanessa.
Hi.
What are you feeding your animal?
So I have a cat and she's really picky.
So I feed her chicken with peas
and I cook that up with a little bit of red curry paste.
Wow.
Your cat likes peas?
She's not really a fan of the peas, but when she became the picky eater,
my vet said that if I was going to feed her the chicken,
I had to also put the peas in for the protein in them.
There you go.
She was getting everything in her diet.
It's like a kid.
You're not going anywhere until you eat your greens.
And how many curry pastes did you try before you landed on red curry paste?
Red curry is actually my favourite, so I make it a lot.
And it's these little hot ones that I get.
Is that the spicy one, Vanessa?
So it is very spicy, so I only put a little bit in
because Yvette said that the spice isn't actually good for her.
Yeah, good question.
She loves it so much.
Did you get like kiwi hot or Indian hot?
I think she's more of a kiwi hot girl.
She tries the Indian hot curries, but yeah.
I feel like she would, you know, a cat would get sting ring
if you give them too hot.
Let's talk to Jade.
Hi, Jade.
Hi, Jade.
Hey, hi.
You have a chihuahua who has a fancy diet.
What's going on?
Yeah, it's actually my sister's chihuahua.
He's a tiny little chihuahua and he eats fillet steak every night.
Medium rare.
Medium rare.
Yeah.
Now, obviously it's not your dog so you can say whatever you want.
Do you find that a bit ridiculous that a chihuahua's eating fillet steak medium rare?
Yeah, I have told her because she also sometimes just gets takeaway for herself
and then Joel cook up a steak for her chihuahua.
God.
Does the dog ever send it back and she's like, I said medium rare?
This is clearly medium well.
And I'm not eating it.
No, he's fussy with dog food now.
He prefers the steak.
Right.
Well, that's what would happen, yeah, because if you feed him that kind of food
and then they get kind of used to it.
Someone on the text machine has said,
we don't make any special food, but our cats eat at the table on a chair.
My uncle was like that.
He had special chairs for the cats.
The cat ate at the table?
Yeah, yeah.
They were like high chairs that the cats could eat out of.
Did it go to the toilet?
At the table. Did it use the human toilet? Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. I would love to find a cat at the table. Yeah, yeah. They were like high chairs that the cats got on. Did it go to the toilet? At the table.
Did it use the human toilet?
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I would love to find a cat.
I've never seen a cat be able to do that.
I would love, if you're listening right now and your cat does that,
can you send us a video?
I think we lost our last caller, but producer Anastasia,
what were they going to say?
What was the last fancy animal that we had on the line?
Oh, oh, oh. Oh, my bad.
Sorry, what was it?
It's all good.
Her mum would take the dog through the drive-through
and so she would do her first order,
which was for herself, the Macca's drive-through.
And then she'd get a second one, which she called a doggy bag,
and it was a cheeseburger and a couple hash browns for the dog.
A couple of hash browns?
Yeah, a couple.
At least the dog knows what's up.
One's never enough, Bree.
I agree, but it's a dog. What kind of psychopath iss. Yeah, a couple. At least the dog knows what's up. One's never enough, Bree. I agree,
but it's a dog. What kind of psychopath is getting
one hash brown? Come on.
Yeah, who gets one hash brown? I don't care
if you're a dog. You deserve more than one hash brown.
That's just the way it is. You know how, that's how
I usually test, like when I used to go out
with people, like if it was
the morning after, I would take them
through the McDonald's drive-thru, and if
they got one hash brown, that was it.
Drop them off.
Drop them off.
Drop them like it's hot.
Never talk to them again.
Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio.
This is The Latest.
Live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Dean, is Spider-Man star Kirsten Dunst trying to get into New Zealand?
She certainly is.
Yes, she's coming down there with her man
Jesse Plemons to do a new film called
Power of the Dog. This has made headlines
in LA today. Here's why. First of all,
they were given special exemption to
enter New Zealand. As you know,
you have to be, I guess, a national.
People can't just go there on vacation.
So they got approval for that. But then
they wanted to take it one further.
They applied to stay and quarantine in a rural farm.
Like, they felt like, you know, the hotel you have to stay in for two weeks.
They felt like it would, you know, be really unsafe for them.
They need their privacy.
And they put in a special request.
Can I just say this, though?
Okay, girl, you are not Beyonce.
I do not think that if Kirsten Dunn is going to be in a hotel, that there's going to be paparazzis and helicopters and fans.
I think they need to chill.
They are not Beyonce.
Also, in the hotel, it's a quarantine hotel.
No one can go anywhere.
I literally can't think of any more privacy than a quarantine hotel.
Literally.
In fact, if you commit a crime at the moment,
the best place to hide, a quarantine hotel.
Because no one's going in.
Literally no one's going in. Literally no one's going in.
Did you guys hear, so
they're allowed in because they've got an exemption.
So are they still coming? If they can't get their special
farm stay, are they still coming, Dean?
Well, the rumour is that
they were like, well, we won't do the film, but I think
they might just chill. I think everyone needs to chill.
Everyone needs to chill.
Did you guys hear that
Australia is one of the only countries
that is literally barely letting anyone out of the country?
Oh, you can't even leave?
Unless you have like a serious exemption
or if you're like an essential worker or something like that.
My friend is trying to leave Australia today.
Well, he is leaving, but he's a New Zealand resident
and he's coming home.
He's moving back to New Zealand.
But he messaged our group chat
just before and he goes, do you guys know if we get alcohol
in the quarantine? And I said, bro,
I'm pretty sure you get like one or two beers a day.
So if there's a duty free that's open,
put it in your bag, wrap it up
in socks, do whatever you've got to do because it's going to be
a long two weeks in there, man.
Pay all the duty free you can.
And see if you can get in the same hotel as Kirsten
Dunst because I reckon she's going to end up somewhere quite nice.
She'll have all the alcohol, that's for sure.
That's the latest with our Hollywood correspondent,
Dean McCarthy.
Bring it on.
Live out of LA, it's thanks to Old El Paso.
You can launch into mess-free Mexican now
with their tortilla pockets.
Bree and Clint.
Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down?
What the hell?
I think Google's actually the people.
I thought it was going to be a one-time game,
but I've had that many inboxes of people just being like,
Bree, bring back Google down.
We loved it.
Explain the game.
Pretty simple.
Created this game off the back of when Google went down last week
or the week before, and it's easy.
Who is the fastest Googler?
I've just closed all the tabs on my laptop.
I'm running at maximum speed on the work Wi-Fi.
That's all it takes.
If you can Google the questions I give you the fastest,
no name calling, you just yell out the answer.
The first person to have the correct answer will get the point.
Playing today, myself, present, Producer Ben.
Yeah, I'm here, mate.
He's in.
Producer Anastasia.
You forgot to add in reigning champion, Producer Anastasia.
I did forget.
You won by a clean sweep.
Producer Anastasia, very quick on the keys in this game.
Thank you.
He's the reigning champ.
And joining us for the first time to play Google Down is you, Kate.
Woo, awesome.
How are you going to access Google while you're on the phone to us?
I've got my son's phone.
Perfect.
Perfect.
She's running two phones.
You're double-devicing.
It's a solid two-phone game, Kate.
I love your style.
Has everyone got the Google search drive ready?
Yes.
Okay.
All right, guys.
When you have the answer to this first question, just yell it out.
Question number one.
How many steps does the Great Wall of China have?
All right.
Time is on.
Everyone is Googling.
Just yell it out.
4,000 plus.
Oh, no.
Clint is wrong. He is out. Oh, what? If you get it wrong. 4,000 plus. Oh, no. Clint is wrong.
He is out.
Oh, what?
If you get it wrong.
1,000.
Oh, Kate's in with the right answer.
I saw that and thought it wasn't right.
I saw that and I thought there were steps up to the wall.
Yeah, damn it.
That is the answer that comes up on Google,
so I will take that from Kate.
There's only 1,000 steps on the Great Wall of China. I did
10,000 steps yesterday.
Yeah, because I read that.
That's what comes up in Google.
Alright, question number two. Kate, you're in the lead.
Here we go. How long
is a panda pregnant
for? Google
Googling has begun.
95 to 160
days. What did you say, Ben?
I said could last.
95 to 160 days.
Is that what you said, Ben?
I said 135 days.
I'm going to have to take Kate.
She yelled out the correct answer first.
What did she say?
95 to 160 days.
Which is the top search on Google.
All right, guys.
Wait, how is a panda pregnant for such a random amount of time?
I know.
Isn't it strange?
I agree with mine.
All right.
So you guys need to get this to stop Kate from winning, okay?
She's cheating.
Here we go.
Here comes the third question in Google down.
How many studio albums has Taylor Swift released?
Seven.
No, Ben is out.
Eight.
Anastasia's in and that's correct.
That was so close.
You know what?
There wasn't even Google.
That was just me being.
Studio albums, Taylor Swift has released eight.
Yes.
All right.
That was close.
This is on Kate.
It's between Anastasia and Kate now.
I'm kidding.
All right, here we go.
As of June 2019, how many people live in Palmerston North?
Here we go.
The Googling has begun.
Yell it out.
88,300.
Ben's got it.
No, this means this stupid game is going to keep going.
Yes, my questions.
I'm at the stage where I just want Kate to win.
All right, Kate, you need one more to win, okay?
Kate, get this, all right?
Okay, all right.
Can the question be, what is Kate's middle name?
I don't know if that's on Google.
All right, here we go.
What size shoe does LeBron James wear?
13.
15.
Anastasia's got it.
I guess.
All right.
It is a tiebreaker between Kate and Anastasia.
All right.
Ben and me are out.
I don't have any more questions, so this is awkward.
Okay.
Hold on.
I don't want that.
Okay. I think I do have one.
Are we ready?
Ready.
Yes.
For the tiebreaker, how many Ocean's movies were there?
Four.
Four.
Kate's got it.
She's so good.
Kate has taken away Google Down.
Playing on speakerphone and her son's iPhone, Kate's taken out Google Downs. Playing on speakerphone and her son's iPhone.
Kate's taken out Google Downs.
Congratulations, Kate.
Well done.
You've taken away the mobile fuel.
Bree and Clint.
Am I running this?
Yeah, you put it in there, didn't you?
Am I running this story?
Well, I don't even know what the story is.
You were the one that was talking about the note.
Oh.
Oh, do you want me to run it? Oh, yeah, okay. was talking about the note. Oh.
Oh, do you want me to run it?
Oh, yeah, okay.
We both know the story.
To be fair, you came up with a better idea to do with it,
so I just left it to you.
Oh, right.
No, I can read the note.
I can read the note. You read the note and then I'll jump off of it.
I'm glad we're doing this on air.
Okay.
It's professional.
So a woman has left a note on her neighbour's windscreen of her car.
See, I love this stuff when people leave notes.
The note says, FYI, I beeped your boyfriend.
He said you were broken up.
I live in 5D.
One, you need to wash your car.
And two, you need to dump him.
Not in that order.
Imagine getting that note on your windscreen.
I'd rather you park like an asshole.
Right?
Instead of that note, you know?
But the woman is theoretically in the right here.
The one who's left the note,
she thought the guy was single
and then she's seen the girlfriend going back in there
and she's like, he lied to me.
I've now been caught up in cheating.
So I'm going to tell her with a note on the car.
Girl code.
Yeah.
Not tell her to her face because that could be dangerous.
It's going to leave her a note.
And presumably this is a stranger, even though it's her neighbour.
So she's done the right thing.
So you reckon she's done the right thing getting into someone else's business?
They're strangers?
She was in their business.
She slept with her boyfriend.
Yeah, well, I agree.
Doesn't matter.
She's inadvertently become part of her business.
No, I'm someone who I think she should, yeah, definitely get involved.
Now, my idea was to ask the question,
have you had a note left on your windscreen?
Saucy.
Yeah, I know.
Not one of my better ideas.
And this is why I thought you were going to run this.
Bree's come up with a better idea.
So the question we're going to ask you this afternoon instead is.
Have you hooked up with a better idea. So the question we're going to ask you this afternoon instead is... Have you hooked up with your neighbour?
Because technically they all were from the same apartments, right?
So she was essentially hooking up with one of her neighbours.
I can imagine that hooking up with your neighbour would be extremely convenient and also romantic.
Because even things like putting out the bins, you'd be like, ooh, what am I going to wear
to put the bins out?
You know?
Yeah, well, true.
You never know when you're going to bump into them.
You're just dancing around your lounge,
and if they can see into your lounge, you're like,
ooh, I wonder if I should accidentally just be in my towel
and not think that.
I've thought about this too much.
Yeah, you have.
Also very risky because you are doing something where you eat
and sleep.
No, you're not.
And live.
No, you're not.
You're doing it next door to where you eat. Is that this? And sleep and sleep. No, you're not. And live. No, you're not. You're doing it next door to where you eat and sleep and drink.
Yes, you are.
Because if it goes to custard, like people who have fights with their neighbours all the time,
just pull the curtains.
You know, this is something that I've done.
You've hooked up with a neighbour?
When I was at boarding school.
Oh, okay.
No, no, no.
So that sounds weird.
That sounds wrong.
And it's quite sinister, but our boarding, so what do you call a boarding mother?
Yeah.
They get to live in the house next door to the boarding house.
Yeah.
And you hooked up with her?
No, I didn't hook up with the mum.
Oh, you said next door.
Yeah, so they lived next door, but she had a son that was in our grade.
Oh.
And he lived in that house.
Yes.
Right.
So you were trying to upgrade from the boarding house to the main house.
Yeah.
And one night I did, and then I managed to get through the whole school year
until the end, and my boarding mother found out.
Yeah.
And it was very awkward.
But was it all the things that I talked about?
Was it exciting and romantic?
Absolutely.
I had to put Blu-Tack over this certain gate
because they lock us in there at night time.
And I put Blu-Tack into the lock part of the gate
so I could get out.
And then I ran through this bush area and into the window.
It's like the Shawshag Redemption.
Oh, 800 dial ZM.
Have you hooked up with your neighbour?
That's what we're asking, right neighbour That's what we're asking right
That's what we're asking
Unless you want to do
The night one
No I think the neighbour one
Okay cool
You can text us on
9696
0800 dial ZM
When did someone
Leave a note on your car
Oh no we're not doing
That photo are we
Okay we're brainstorming right
There's no bad ideas
In a brainstorm
No to be honest
I'd actually be interested to hear that one too.
Oh, now you say that.
But I also probably would be more interested to hear
about times when you're hooked up with your neighbour.
What a sexy scenario, right?
You always read stories about the girl or the boy next door.
When did it get Randy on Ramsey Street?
Right.
When did your neighbour become your naughty neighbour?
You killed that.
Thank you.
Thank you.
And is it as romantic as we think it could be?
First person wants to remain anonymous.
This makes it even better.
Hello, anonymous.
Hello.
Are you there, Anonymous?
Yes, can you hear me?
Yeah, we can hear you.
Sorry.
Did you hook up with your neighbour?
Sorry, what was that?
Did you hook up with your neighbour?
I did indeed.
We hooked up for a good six months, solid.
And how did it come about, Anonymous?
Like, how did you guys meet, and how did the situation arise?
Borrowing a cup of sugar?
No, my old friend was actually his ex-partner.
Oh.
That's even more saucy.
So he lost a partner, you lost a friend,
and then you both found each other.
Is that how it worked? Yes, it lost a friend, and then you both found each other.
Is that how it worked?
Yes, it was.
Yes, that's how it went. And then towards the end,
he actually ended up sitting with the other neighbour as well.
No, he went the other way.
Did he not have a car?
The guy literally never left home.
Yeah, seriously.
He's a real homebody.
Get in the bloody car.
This is Anonymous Man on the show this afternoon.
Hello, Anonymous.
Hello.
Good afternoon.
Did you hook up with your neighbour?
Yes, I did.
How did that go down, Anonymous?
Not too bad.
We've been neighbours since we were little kids,
so we always had a pretty good relationship.
And then just before I moved, I went to America for my OE, I guess.
Things just got a little steamy.
Oh, my God, you had like a goodbye rendezvous.
Yeah, pretty much.
And you said, I've always had a thing for you,
and they said, I've always had a thing for you too, Anonymous.
How old were you, Anonymous?
I would have been, I think I was 18 at the time. Right, so wait, were you
guys both still living with your parents? Yeah, we were.
That makes it even more sinister. Do they still live
next door to your parents? They still do, yeah, but she doesn't
anymore. Oh, she doesn't. She can say it doesn't make Christmas awkward. It's like that movie
Love and Basketball.
Have you ever seen it?
No.
Oh, my God.
And their rooms are right next to each other,
and they used to, like, sneak out of the windows.
And where's the basketball hoop?
Nadine, hi.
Hi, how's it going?
Have you hooked up with your neighbour, Nadine?
I did hook up with my neighbour, and he's still in my bed.
Whoa!
20 years later.
20 years later.
Yeah.
Now, call me stupid, but have you consolidated properties yet
or are you still running dual dwellings?
We have the same property.
Yeah, you live together, yeah.
Yeah.
So I got invited next door for a couple of drinks
with his flatmates where I got slightly intoxicated. Yeah. So wait, the flatmates invited you next door for a couple of drinks because his flatmates, where I got slightly intoxicated.
So wait, the flatmates invited you
next door? Yeah.
Well, there you go. You're the
poster girl for hooking up with your neighbour.
You'd recommend it to everyone, wouldn't you, Nadine?
Oh, well, you know,
I couldn't get him out of my bed, so I had to
keep him. And you probably, you couldn't
get away from them either, because you,
what, you're going to be like, I'm going to go home.
And they're like, well, okay, I'll see you in a sec.
He's been in that bed for 20 years.
He's like one of the grandparents on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Yeah, literally.
Yes, he is.
Good for you, Nadine.
That's awesome.
Great story.
20 years later.
We appreciate that.
It's a neighbour love story just like Ramsey Street.
Kia ora.

Bree and Clint.
Sorry, we were just watching the video of Megan announcing her pregnancy to Fletchford and Megan.
It's so amazing.
It's very good. It's very good.
It's very good.
They did it through a whisper challenge.
I'm so happy for her.
That's on their Facebook page if you want to watch it.
Speaking of things that are on the internet and exciting and so good and very feel good,
I am the proud auctioneer of a celebrity lunch which features Bree's mum, Mumadai, and Bree.
Okay?
I like how I'm always the afterthought.
Well, well.
And again, I guess Bree can be this.
It's like when you see a poster for a concert.
Yeah.
Put the big act first.
And mine's with the real small print.
And then there's a whole lot of other small ones down the row.
Right.
But you're second.
You're second.
Hey, no, that's fair enough.
You're second on a two-person line-up.
Yeah.
No, it's fair enough.
People love Mama Di.
We're auctioning off lunch with Mumadai.
It's to raise money for the Cancer Society.
It's on Trade Me at the moment.
It'll be lunch for you, and then you can bring three friends.
You can choose whoever you like to come along to that.
It'll be here in Auckland.
Because of COVID, Mumadai will be Zoomed in.
Why am I telling you all these details?
I've actually made an ad.
Okay.
I've made an ad to promote the event because the auction's going very well,
but because it's for charity, I want to get as far as possible.
Okay.
Okay.
So without further ado, here's my latest marketing campaign
for Lunch with Mama Di and Bree.
This year sucks.
I hate 2020.
Well, it's time to get your year back on track by having lunch with the stars.
Never Before has the chance to dine with Queensland's own Mama Di
been available to purchase on Trade Me here in New Zealand
at the end of a pandemic.
But isn't she in Queensland?
Yes, she is.
But by the wonders of technology and a stick,
it'll be like she's right there.
Oh, sick.
Now I'm definitely keen.
How much is it?
Ben, how much is it?
Currently $5,100.
F*** me!
Ah, ah, ah, it's for charity.
Sorry, f*** me.
Plus, celebrity chef Brie Thomasel will be there to cater the whole event
with her signature chicken parmigiana.
Ugh, I don't want to cook.
Ah, ah, ah, it's for charity.
I told you I'm not cooking, dammit!
She is, don't worry.
So, but now, we want to beat Ashley Bloomfield in his $13,000 lunch.
Because even though it's for charity, it's also a flex.
For the clout.
For the gram.
Are you just saying random youth slang now?
Whap.
It's good, eh?
I'm sure it's going to get at least another couple of bucks.
Yeah, I'm good with that.
Brie and Clint.
Got some sheep news.
Yeah, some sheep news.
And here in New Zealand, I know we love sheep news.
This should be right at the top of the 6 o'clock bulletin.
This news is actually taking the sheep community by storm this week.
It is, I think, a record in the sheep community.
And it's very exciting.
So this happened in the UK last week,
and a bunch of breeders have paid a record price
for a near genetically perfect ram at an auction.
Right, what makes it genetically perfect?
That's a great question.
You know, like, is it the fluffiest coat and the biggest horns?
It looks like, I've seen a picture of this thing,
and I'm not going to lie.
Because he's a big rooter.
It is the biggest set of cojones on an animal I have ever seen.
That's all the boy ones are good for, eh?
It looks like it's got six legs.
Got it.
Got it.
It's ridiculous.
And he looks like a real sturdy bloke too.
Anyway, do you want to know what its name is?
Yeah, I do.
Pretty special name.
Six-month-old Texel sheep named Double Diamond.
Double Diamond's all right.
Yeah, Double Diamond.
Two big diamonds.
Pretty exciting stuff.
And you're not going to believe how much this sheep went for.
I don't know how much sheep go for in general.
Well, obviously he's a ram,
so he's going to be the sheep that's breeding with all of the, you know,
the female sheep.
Yeah.
And do you get one ram per flock?
I think so.
I don't know.
Well, it's like when you get a herd of cattle,
you usually have one bull.
Right, okay.
Depending on how many you have, I guess.
Depending on the bull's appetite for romance.
Depending on how many legs your sheep has, and he has six, so he's going to go pretty well.
Anyway, three breeders who eventually secured a piece
of this near genetically perfect ram.
Oh, he's in a three-way.
Bought the ram for a price of $666,000.
Eh?
Uh-huh.
$660,000?
Over half a million dollars.
Holy crap.
That's the price of a Lamborghini.
You could go out and buy it.
That's a house.
Isn't that wild?
Oh, wow.
Anyway, they plan to breed him.
Of course you do.
Of course you do.
Of course that's the plan.
Because I looked up.
I was like, I wonder, you know, is that pretty normal?
Like I wonder what other rams have gone for.
So I've got the second two highest.
Another Texel, same breed of sheep, sold for around $417,000 in 2009.
Right.
And in Australia, a Collinsville ram sold for $450,000 in 1988.
We're in the wrong business.
People laugh at, like, oh, New Zealanders love sheep.
If you can sell a half a million dollar sheep, we're in the wrong business.
Yeah, let's buy some sheep.
With real big nuts.
There's plenty around.
Just look for the biggest nutted one.
Brie and Clint.
Oh my God, I heard she bought all her followers.
She would, she's such a bitch.
It's time for Brie and Clint's Insta Fame Game.
You know the game.
We guess how many famous people follow it.
We guess how many followers famous people have on Instagram.
There we go.
And while we guess, Ben tells us an interesting tidbit about that celebrity.
Have you trimmed your moustache lately, Producer Ben?
Yes.
Just thought I'd let you know it's looking...
Shaving the full face, bar the moustache,
with two months leading into November.
It's looking good.
Thank you.
Just thought I'd give you that compliment on air
so everyone would picture it.
There it is.
There it is.
All right, Ben, when you're ready,
hit us with our first celebrity for the Insta Fame Game.
Your first celebrity is Jeff Bezos.
Has he got Instagram?
He does.
He probably owns it.
Today, his personal wealth topped $200 billion.
He's going up billions of dollars a day at the moment.
And I don't like it.
No.
Neither.
Too much power.
Anyway, he does have Instagram.
Clint, you've put $4.9 million.
Brie, you've put $3.4.
Jeff has $2.4.
Yeah, get in.
So, Brie, that's for you.
He should buy some followers.
Can't afford it.
This is how we do it.
This is how we do it.
Your second celebrity for the Insta Fame Game is Katy Perry.
Katy Perry. Katy Perry.
Yeah, we had a baby girl last week, Daisy Dove Bloom.
Daisy Duke.
No, Daisy Dove.
Bikini on top.
Nope, Daisy Dove.
Daisy Duke, that was good for me.
Katy Perry.
Clint, you've put $50 million.
Brie, you've put $72 million.
Katy Perry has $105 million.
Have we all got the play on words with the baby's name?
What's the play on words?
Daisy Dove Bloom.
Daisy Bloom.
Daisy Bloom.
Daisy Bloom.
Like as in a daisy's bloom.
Oh, as in Daisy Bloom.
Daisy Bloom.
As in flower's bloom.
Oh, yeah.
Got it.
Well, that's what I took for it.
Do you reckon they did that on purpose?
100%.
Okay.
Your third person for the Insta Fame game.
This person actually recently broke the internet
with 4.7 million likes and over 100,000 comments.
A bit of a clue.
On one post.
On one post is Adele.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, she posted a very cool little fun festive pic.
Oh, snap.
In a Jamaican bikini
Adele
Adele
How many Instagram followers
Adele
The singer not the computer
Oh it's the singer
The singer
Clint
For Adele you've put
Is that say 10 million
Yeah
10 million
Brie you've put 72 million It's Adele Yeah I've given up Adele has you've put, is that say 10 million? Yeah. 10 million. Bree, you've put 72 million.
It's Adele.
Yeah, I've given up.
Adele has 38.7 million.
Oh, hang on.
Okay, right.
That was me acting uninterested because I felt like I was going to lose,
but I'm actually really interested and I'm here to play.
That's a bad message to send to kids.
Never give up, even when you're sucking.
Also, don't wear Adele's outfit if you're not Jamaican.
She's copping a lot of heat.
She is, isn't she?
A little bit, yeah.
We're up to four.
Your fourth person in the Instafame game is our very own Megan Puppers,
who announced today her and Andrew are having a baby.
A baby.
A baby.
A baby.
Where is Bebe's chamber?
Bebe back, Bebe back, Bebe back.
How many Instagram followers to Megan?
Oh, that's not meant to say million.
That's meant to say thousands.
Clint, you put 43 million.
Damn it!
That is, you've ridden the M,
and Brie, you've won with 42,000.
You could have literally put anything in there.
44,000.
Damn it, I wrote million by mistake.
I'm used to dealing in millions in this game.
Megan will be flattered.
She's got a long way to go, to be fair.
Well done, Bree wins.
Bree and Clint.
You know there's those moments in life where things just seem to come together
and they fit perfectly?
I like to call it synergy.
Right.
And there's a guy that I am mates with where I used to live back on the central coast near Sydney.
And he worked in radio with me and his name is a very distinctive name.
And I noticed recently that this guy has gotten a new job.
And it's one of those situations where his name fits perfectly
with his profession.
Okay.
They match.
Okay.
So I'm going to tell you his name.
Yeah, I'll guess what he does.
And then you guess what his new job is.
Okay.
Please let his name be David Butcher.
That's going to be pretty easy.
So my mate's name is, he's going to love that we're talking about this
by the way. Good advertising
for him. His name
is Jimmy
Love.
Okay. Jimmy Love.
Jimmy Love. He's a male
gigolo. That would
be perfect. Jimmy Love.
Jimmy Love. Jimmy Love. No, okay. He's not
a... What was the
professor? Bruce Bigelow. Buddy Love.
Buddy Love. Bruce Love.
Jimmy Love. Oh, sorry.
Jimmy Love. Jimmy Love.
What does he do? His name
fits perfectly with his new
profession. Both names or just last name?
Or first name? Just the last name.
Alright. I was going to say because if it's Jimmy, he could be a locksmith.
Yeah, well, that's good.
Love.
Love.
You're going to kick yourself.
Love.
He is writing for Hallmark.
He's making birthday cards.
9696.
Someone help Clint.
Love.
He's a sex therapist.
Oh, well, then.
No.
He's a sperm donor.
No. That's not a job. He's a sperm donor. No. That's
not a job. He's a midwife.
He's a...
He's a... Okay, I'm opening the text
machine. Don't tell me. Love.
You can't open the text machine. He's a breeder.
He's a dog breeder. He's not
a dog breeder. He...
He is... One more guess.
Oh, I just saw it. Yeah. Is he a
marriage celebrant? Yes.
Oh, producer Anastasia reckoned she got it straight away.
You did not.
It's all good to say you got it straight away after I've got it.
No, I told Ben.
Ben, did I tell you that?
Yeah, she got it.
Well, I mean, pretty obvious.
No offence, Clint.
You went with sperm donor.
Actually, someone texted a tennis coach.
A tennis?
Yeah.
Oh, that's pretty good too.
Yeah, I like that one.
So, yeah, he's embarking on a new job where he's going to be a marriage celebrant
charging $300 a wedding.
With the name Jimmy Love, I feel like you would get a lot more bookings.
Jimmy Love.
Jimmy Love.
Wouldn't you want to be married by a guy called?
Love by name, love by nature. Jimmy Love. Jimmy Love. Wouldn't you want to be married by a guy called? Love by name, love by nature.
Jimmy Love.
Yeah, it's good.
Which made me think,
I wonder how many people out there have this situation
where their name fits perfectly with what they do.
It's like you were born to do it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Do we have any Gareth Blacksmiths listening?
Yeah.
Are Blacksmiths still a thing?
I think, no, not really.
I don't know.
Do we have anyone with the name Filet Mignon in Are You A Chef?
Filet, first name.
Yeah.
Last name, Mignon.
We'll see what we get.
Bree and Clint.
Does your name match your profession?
A friend of mine with a very cool name, in my opinion, Jimmy Love.
I worked with him in radio, which was great, but turns out he's gone in a different direction and he's
now a marriage celebrant. Perfect. It matches perfectly. Who doesn't want to get married
with someone with the last name Love? Yeah, we just had Ross Boss in here who was explaining
to us that originally your last name was what your family did. That's how you got a last
name. My mind is blown by that.
Which works for some people if your name is like Sarah Brewers.
Obviously, you guys ran the beer making place.
I have a friend with the last name Butt.
Does that mean they did?
I've got a friend with the last name Gooch.
So what was their forefathers up to?
It's not good any way you rub it.
Oh, I shouldn't have said that.
Anyway, we're asking you this afternoon.
0800 dials at him.
Does your name match your profession?
We're going to try and guess.
So, Rob, can you tell us what's your full name?
Yeah, my full name is Robert Samuel Banks.
He works at the bank.
You work at a bank.
He's a banker.
Yeah.
You're a big banker.
Yes.
Do you feel like, Rob, you kind of were pushed in that direction because of your last name?
Well, funnily, I worked at the Westfield as a security guard,
so I was Rob Banks as a security guard,
and I got to know the guys at the bank,
and my business cards do say Rob Banks.
You are kidding. I've just realised your name is Rob the bank and my business cards do say Rob Banks. You are kidding.
I've just realised your name is Rob Banks.
Yours is actually, wow.
It's going to be hard to get a better one than yours.
Okay, thank you, Rob Banks.
Let's talk to Tracy.
Hi, Tracy.
Hi, Tracy.
Hi.
What's your full name?
It's Hart.
It's not me, but the surname's Hart.
Okay, the surname's Hart.
They're a heart surgeon.
They're a doctor. Cardi Heart. Okay, the surname's Heart. They're a heart surgeon. They're a doctor.
Cardiologist.
Oh, no way!
That's awesome.
Who's that?
Is that your partner or someone?
No, no, just through my work.
It's in medical and, yeah, doctor heart.
What are the odds?
They're not just a doctor.
They're a cardiologist.
You should tell your friend with the last name Butt to become a butt surgeon.
Yeah, butt implants are big, aren't they?
Then they'd stop making fun of them.
Christina, hi.
Hi, Christina.
Hey, how's it going?
Good.
What's the name?
The last name is Smiley.
Dentist.
It's got to be a dentist.
Yep.
It is.
Perfect.
This game's really easy.
This is a pretty easy game.
There's a few on the text machine I want to read out
because I've got quite a laugh out of a few.
Someone text through and they said,
my mum's school caretaker's name was Mr. Rake.
How could you work in a school?
How could you work in a school as the caretaker of your last name was Mr. Rake?
Kids are ruthless.
You would never get to...
All right, yeah, good.
That's good.
Someone else said, I'm a teacher and my name is Mrs. Staples.
That's good.
That is good.
The shame.
Nicknames, I always get Mrs. Stationery.
That's a good date.
Oh, you poor thing.
Let's finish up with Sophie.
Hi, Sophie.
What's the name?
Hi, guys.
I had two teachers in school.
One was Miss Jelly and the other one was Mrs. Ham.
Both cooking teachers?
Got it.
Cooking teachers, Jelly and Ham.
I hope they got together.
Sophie.
I hope they shaked up.
That's weird because I had teachers at school, and this is no BS,
Mr Fanny, and he was, this is no bull, he was the vice principal
and the principal's name, this is no BS, Mrs Cox.
What are the chances?
I mean, why put yourself in that position
at a primary school?
Again, some names are not cut out to work in a school.
It's just...
They were such a good team,
you know? They fit together real well.
Mr Fanny
and Mrs Cox.
That's their name!
C-O-X.
Made for each other.
Bree and Clint.
Say.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.

Notorious B.I.G.
P. Diddy and Mace.
Did you hear that?
My money, my problems, what?
Back to back biggie.
Back to back biggie.
Back to back biggie.
Back to back biggie.
I still haven't heard it. Back to back biggie. Back to back biggie. I still haven't heard it.
Back to back biggie.
Back to back biggie.
Okay, so I really don't want to hear it anymore.
Oh.
Yeah.
This album is dedicated.
I love it when you call me big pop pop.
R.I.P.
R.I.P.
What a legend. Coming up in the show, your chance to win $250 cash thanks to F'n Vodka.
We're going to be shouting out F'n Legends.
That's right.
Yeah.
So if you know someone who isn't F'n Legends, stick around because we want you to tell us about them and win that cash.
Father's Day coming up could be your big pop-up.
Your notorious DAD.
That's right.
Very hard to go on holiday at the moment,
especially if you've been living in Auckland for the last three weeks.
We literally couldn't leave the city.
There was police.
Roadblocks at the north and south.
We were prisoners on our own.
Well, to be honest, everything's here.
But it was still hard. We pretended
like we were on holiday at my flat.
Oh, yeah? You guys had a pop-up
bar? Yeah, we also had that
really fancy pool that
we installed. Did you?
Yeah, it was like $15
one from Kmart. Oh, in the middle
of winter? Yeah, just to make
it feel, you know, resorty.
Anyway, look, this is interesting because while it is hard to travel,
and you should travel, we've got to go and experience our own backyard,
but at the same time, ooh, COVID's scary.
Not sure what's going to happen.
100% Pure New Zealand, which I think is the tourism group for New Zealand,
have launched an audio journey around the country.
Oh, like an audio book.
Kind of.
It's up on Spotify and it's the sounds of New Zealand.
And within this like seven minute clip,
you travel from Northland down to Rotorua in one of them.
And the other one you go from the Marlborough Sounds
down to Canterbury.
Okay.
So I'll give you a little bit of what it sounds like.
So guys like this, this is how we travel now.
This is us in the Marlborough Sounds. And then if you like, you can also have your journey
narrated along the way, which sounds like this.
Kia ora. Welcome to a mindful journey around our home. So close your eyes as we make our way from the serenity
of Marlborough Sounds
across to the rugged west coast
heading inland at
Punakaiki Rocks
then high up into the
Southern Alps
before finishing amongst the
calmness of central Otago.
So you tell me that's not relaxing. Does anyone else
really need to pee?
Yeah, that is a strong part of it, actually.
Makes me want to pee so much.
Don't listen to it in the car.
Okay, yeah.
It's dangerous.
Well, I'm so glad we're playing it on the radio while people are driving.
Good point.
I did have a good listen to it, and I thought, while it is beautiful and it is a wonderful audio journey
through our wonderful nation,
there are some key spots that have been missed off this
audio journey. So I've
been out today. I've been around the
country actually. Have you? Yeah and I've
recorded the sounds of the other places that have been
missed. I'm sure you have.
So first
we stop off in
Tarmaki Makaurau, Auckland.
Oh move your
f***ing car, arsehole!
Ah, the serenity.
Mm-hmm.
So calm.
And then we head to the capital, Wellington.
Oh, where's my f***ing train?
The train's always cancelled
Yeah, I can picture it
That's why that guy was saying that
What about the tunnel?
What about the tunnel?
Everyone always toots in the tunnel
That's in there too
That's in there?
Yeah, that's cut by the elephant
And finally we head to the Edinburgh of the South
Dunedin
Trip through Dunedin
F*** G
I'm f*** wasted Dunedin. Trip through Dunedin. F***ing G.
I'm f***ing wasted.
Shit, there's Mitch James over there.
Which is good, you know.
I think, like, saved you some money on flights with that.
Guys, come and look at the 660 house.
It's over here.
Shit, it's on fire.
Yeah, they all lived in this house.
No bullshit.
Why have we gone Australian?
I don't know Because I'm travelling
Oh I got it
Makes sense
Good
Alright good
That was a real exercise
That we just did
This exact house
666
How good's this?
Thanks to our friends
At FN Vodka.
Premium vodka, sparkling water, and a hint of natural fruit flavours.
Perfectly balanced.
We're looking for F'n Legends to give them $250 cash.
Pretty simple.
All you need to do is call through and tell us why the person you're nominating is an F'n Legend.
We'll start with Kat.
Hi, Kat.
Hi, Kat.
Hey.
How you doing?
Good. Who's an if and legend?
My dad
is. And why is that Kat?
When I was studying
for three years he covered
pretty much any bill that was over a hundred bucks.
So car rego,
car
insurance, car
servicing, anything like that.
So he is a bloody legend.
Yeah, wow.
If you went out for dinner and you were like,
oh, the bill's 83, if I get one more side.
A couple more drinks.
I didn't go out for dinner.
Yeah, right, but you see the flaw in your dad's math there.
If he had a more opportunistic daughter,
you'd just make sure every bill was over $100.
You should do every bill under $100.
But he does sound like a really lovely guy.
Bloody legend.
Dad's on the list.
Good.
Anna.
Hi, Anna.
Hi.
Hi, guys.
How you going?
Good.
Who's an effing legend in your life?
My boyfriend, Alistair.
Okay.
What does he do?
So he's an essential worker that's been working at the hospital throughout the whole COVID
crisis, and he's just an effing legend because he's just done worker that's been working at the hospital throughout the whole COVID crisis.
And he's just an effing legend because he's just done it with absolutely zero complaints.
Amazing.
Is he a doctor, nurse?
Does he work?
He's a pharmacist.
Okay, yep.
So they've all had to stay open over there.
Oh, yep.
And he's been working really, really hard.
I bet he is.
He's on the list.
Catherine's here too.
Catherine, hi.
Hi.
Hi. Who's an effing Catherine, hi. Hi. Hi.
Who's an effing legend, Catherine?
My dad.
Another dad.
I bought a new car and he drove it all the way from Blenheim up to Palmy for me.
Whoa, okay.
Yeah, good guy.
Wait, I need a few details.
What sort of car?
Subaru Forester.
Yeah, right.
Was it worth the drive?
I was going to say, was there anything in it for dad?
Because it sounds like fun for Dad.
Uh, no, he actually, um, an engine light turned on on the drive up, so it was pretty stressful.
Right, so he delivered you a dud car.
Yeah.
It wasn't his fault.
Catherine bought it and sent him down there.
Okay, this game is really hard because now we have to choose one of those.
It's your turn to pick.
Uh, we've got Kat, whose dad paid for any bill over $100,
which I think is a legendary move, and it is Father's Day this weekend.
Anna, whose boyfriend is an essential worker,
or Catherine, whose dad drove the munted forester up the country.
Oh, this is hard.
The one that I liked the most was Kat,
the one whose dad paid for the $100 bills.
Yeah, and for three years.
For three years.
Shall we do it?
Yeah, it's Kat.
Everyone else, great stories too, but Kat, congrats.
Your dad's a different legend.
We're going to hook you up with $250.
No, that is so cool.
Thank you.
Nice work, Kat.
And poor Catherine.
If the dad had drove an Audi, Clint probably would have picked you, Catherine.
They come with a decent service plan, so you're never caught short
in a fine engineered German vehicle.
Tell your dad we said hello, Cat, all right?
I will.
Thank you so much.
See you, mate.
Heaven Vodka is available in three refreshing flavours
with only three grams of sugar per 100 mils.
Bree and Clint.
We've got another one of those lists.
These are the most endangered baby names.
These are names that no one is calling their kid anymore,
and because of that, they're at risk of not existing.
I'm going to say Donald.
Donald.
Is that on there?
Let me just scan the list for a Donald.
No, Donald's not on there.
No.
No, and you know what?
Donald not only is Donald not? No, Donald's not on there. No. No, and you know what?
Donald, not only is Donald not on there,
Karen's not on here either.
And I don't know if that's because those names are already extinct for babies.
Maybe.
Like they're already gone.
Little baby Karen.
Like when's the last time you met a Karen?
Baby.
And I say that as a man with an auntie Karen.
I'd find that quite cute.
Little baby Karen.
Not in 2020 though. I probably find that quite cute Little baby Karen Not in 2020 though I probably would
I'm a little baby Karen
That'd be the same as calling it
If you named your baby Karen
I would complain to the manager of your baby
My womb
Lists are pretty stupid really
But let's run through them shall we
We're going to do top 5 for each gender
Okay
Actually for the boys
We're going to do top 6
Because the number 6 most endangered, for the boys, we're going to do top six because the number six most endangered
name for baby boys is Ben.
Is it?
Yeah.
Is it just?
Producer Ben.
Look, I'm not going to lie.
Ben.
Yeah.
A little bit beige.
Is it?
You know, it's just pretty generic.
Are you a Benjamin, by the way?
Yeah, I'm a Benjamin.
You are a Benjamin.
Are you a Benjamin?
Yeah.
Benjamin McDowell.
Yeah.
Are you named after the president?
Not the current one.
No, the American president.
I got it, yeah.
What was his name?
Benjamin Franklin.
Benjamin Franklin.
Ben Franklin.
Are you named after the pie guy?
Big Ben?
Yes.
Are you?
Yeah.
Are you named after the big clock?
Yeah, that too as well.
Yeah.
That is disappointing.
Five. Craig. Oh, that's my well. That is disappointing. Five, Craig.
Oh, that's my dad's name.
Is it?
Yeah.
Craig.
Four, Brandon.
Brandon?
The fourth most endangered boy's name.
I thought Brandon.
No, Brandon.
American style, Brandon.
I don't think I know anyone with the name Brandon.
Brandon Flowers, the lead singer of The Killers.
Don't know him.
No, I don't know him personally.
Number three, Ross.
Is it?
Yeah, number three, Ross.
Number two, Kieran.
Pervat.
Kieran.
Yeah.
Okay.
We don't know any Kierans.
And number one, Mitchell.
I thought Mitchell was a pretty cool boy's name.
But yeah.
Mitch.
Let's run through the girls, shall we?
Here we go.
Number five, Courtney. At the risk of going out of fashion. all bought his name but yeah Mitch let's run through the girls shall we here we go number five Kourtney
at the risk of going out
of fashion
Kourtney
I don't understand
why that would be going out
I don't see a baby
called Kourtney
like I don't imagine
holding a baby
and being
this is Kourtney
I think because
when someone owns a name
that's the age of the name
and because Kourtney Kardashian
owns the name Kourtney
I was going to say
do you reckon it's because of that
I think of a 38 year old woman when I think Kourtney and people are like donourtney. I was going to say, do you reckon it's because of that? I think of a 38-year-old woman when I think Kourtney.
And people don't want to name it after a Kardashian.
Four, Shannon.
Shannon.
These lists are so bullshit, by the way.
Number three, Shauna.
Shauna?
Shauna's not a baby's name.
Nah, I can't picture a baby Shauna.
Number two, Jordan.
Jordan's on the way up.
I love that name for a girl.
J-O-R-D-A-N.
Yeah, that's how I'd spell it.
Like Michael.
And number one, the number one most at-risk name of going out of fashion.
For girls.
Brianna.
No, it's George.
You liar.
That was so predictable.
It's Kirsty, but for the sakes of this.
Yeah, Brianna.
So Brianna.
No one was naming their kid Brianna in the first place.
