Hello everybody and welcome to the Brie and Clint podcast. I've got something good for the podcast actually no now I've like talked it up yeah it's not that good you should have just launched straight into it I wanted to talk about because uh me and my partner we threw a birthday party for big gay gorgeous for a cat oh um not for a cat for big gorgeous Al, he turned 28 on the weekend. Hello, boys. Is that man only 28? He's 28, yeah. Wow. What? Do you think he was older?

Yeah. Oh, that's a bit harsh. Excuse me, he's in a management position here at our work. Yeah, well, true. He is high up here. It's not always an insult to say that someone seems older than Al. For a female, it is. Well, he's not a female.

He's a male, yeah. Yeah, but he's a gay man. He also gets offended. Anyway. Anyway, yeah. Producer Ben's over it. No, no, no. Move on.

No, neither of us know how gay age works, so neither of us are commenting. Yeah, you don't know anything about the gays. He looks great. Happy birthday, Al. Happy birthday, Al. I thought you were 21. Yeah, that's better.

Because I'm telling you, don't ever call a gay man old Don't call Yeah right No They'll get real offended Just as offended as us ladies Right I'm telling you

It's like death to them They want to stay as young as possible Don't we all though Not as much as them I'm telling you Well they're doing more to achieve it than we are yeah they yeah um but anyway so we threw a birthday party for him and uh one of the girls that works here megan the stallion um she brought over um an adult past the parcel love it and it

was so much fun yeah oh wait wait adult in what way? So each round someone would open a thing and it would have pretty much like a thing written on it what you had to do. And most of them you had to do a shot and you had to pick a shot from the... Oh, I thought it was like a sex toy past the parcel. There were fun things like Scratchies. I made one of those for my sister's hen's night.

Yeah, right. Yeah. It ended with... Your auntie with a hen's night. Yeah, right. Yeah. It ended with... Your auntie with a giant donger. Yeah, a black one. And it somehow ended up at the boat party that we went to. And at one point in the night, I just saw this big black donger flying across the air.

And then this girl like reach up and grab it like an AFL speccy. And then she was interviewing people with this big dildo. At one point, the ship's engines failed and the captain goes we need help and Bree's auntie goes I'll paddle us ashore. She put the donger in the water and she just. She was like a Dick MacGyver. Yeah.

She was like Dick Moana. No that's inappropriate. No that is inappropriate. Culturally inappropriate. Anyway it got me to thinking Who was the rocks character? I should have said that one. I No, that is inappropriate. Culturally inappropriate. Anyway, it got me to thinking. Who was the Rocks character? I should have said that one. I haven't seen more of that.

It sounds like Carrie Bradshaw. What other games that you played as a kid could you turn into adult ones? Well, there's the classic one. Catch and Kiss. No, that's not appropriate. I've never heard of that. What? Was that before my time? Catch and Kiss. It's not appropriate. Spin the never heard of that. What? Was that before my time?

Catch and kiss. It's not appropriate. Spin the bottle. Did anyone here ever play spin the bottle? I feel like that's not a kid's game though. No, I don't think it's a kid's game. It's a teenager game. There's the classic one played at...

Oh, seven minutes in heaven. Pin the penis on the man. That's a hen's night. That's a hen's one, yeah. What kid's games... Don't use a real man, by the way. Hide and seek. Learn the hard way. Well, hopefully his hasn't use a real man, by the way. Hide and seek.

Learn the hard way. Well, hopefully his hasn't come off. Tag? Tag. Tag? Why has everything got to be sexual? Well, I thought that's where you were taking it. No. I thought it was about Aunty Julie and the big donger.

Pass the drink. It was Aunty Cheryl. Pass the package. You have to run and give them a drink, and then you're like, tag, you're in. I don't know. Spotlight. Remember the game Spot in. I don't know. Spotlight. Remember the game Spotlight? I love that game.

The problem is, although so pretty scary though, this is the reason we don't play Spotlight as adults, is none of us can afford to live somewhere that has a big enough backyard to make Spotlight interesting. Spotlight was always fun when you were a kid because your parents had like big sections and stuff.

Do you play in a big backyard? Yeah. We used to play in rooms. you play in a big backyard? Yeah. We used to play in rooms. Really? Rooms? Yeah. Where you find them with a torch? Yeah.

We used to like play in the living room. I was too scared. I stayed inside. No, we would play outside. Oh, that's terrifying. Yeah. Camping was good. Oh, that's so scary.

Yeah. Yeah. Because the fun part about playing in a room is then at the end you turn the light on you see where everyone is straight away as a 32 year old dad who's quite tired do you know what my favorite kids game is to play as a sleeping tigers close go home stay home what's go home stay home so i go home and stay there stay home oh do you know the game you don't know that was quite a i felt it was an okay joke do you not know the game go home stay home no no i know i know the goat i know the game uh smoke bomb disappear yes i think my adaption is very similar similar i've got some good games that uh you can

ask for my advice when tooey gets a bit bit older thanks like sleeping tigers is a real good one um also oh you're being serious I'm being serious I thought you were like When Tilly wants to learn how to have fun Tell her to come to Naughty Auntie Bree No no no I was like stay away from my daughter

You were talking about keeping kids occupied Yeah Another great game is You save up all your coins Like just your leftover change It can just be like you know Small change And if the kids are old enough

So obviously when they don't put the change in their mouth You pull them out to the backyard You install a small pole over change it can just be like you know small change and if the kids are old enough so obviously when they don't put the change in their mouth you pull them out to the backyard small pole no no that would hurt them you tell them to come out to the backyard hopefully they've got a sibling because that makes it more fun and then she's got two cats you tell them to hide like or to hide cover their eyes and then you just peg all of the change into the backyard. Oh, I thought you were going to say at them. No. And then they've got half an hour to find every last bit of change

and you tell them that you know the exact amount. That's good. And if they don't find it all, they don't get to keep it. But you lie, eh? Yeah. You say there's more money than that. Yeah, exactly. So they just keep going.

And it preoccupies them for ages. Love it. And then the other one that I got in trouble on the internet for is where you get a $5 note and you tell them to rest their forehead against the $5 note on the wall. That was a cracker. And they're against their sibling. And the last person standing wins the $5 note. Yeah.

People told me that I was a child abuser. Yeah, your fatal flaw was putting it on the internet. Great game. What a load of BS. And everyone was like, oh, they've been there for hours. They were there for about six minutes, I think. And they loved it. And they loved it.

And they both got to keep the $5. To spend on candy. Nah. No, they eat healthy. Yeah they loved it. And they both got to keep the $5. To spend on candy. Nah. No, they eat healthy. Yeah, spend on apples. Food. But not too many apples because they're full of sugar. No, you should give them escape.

That's why they should have been able to have candy. I would love to hear from people that listen to the podcast, if you want to put in our podcast group, what is a similar game that you have that keeps the kids preoccupied? Oh, yeah. Heads down, thumbs up. Yeah, heads down, thumbs up. And hide and go seek is a good one too because you just. Or what, I'd like to know what kids game have you turned into a drinking game.

That's more fun for me. I always, you know what I always give as a present. Drinking Jenga? I was, she bloody took my thing. Bloody hell. She took the words right out of your mouth. If you don't have a lot of... Oh, it must have been while you were kissing her.

Stop singing old weird songs that should be on The Rock. Meatloaf? Yeah, The Rock. Oh, well, I swear it's true. I was just about to say I love you. You took the words out of my mouth Don't worry You're meant to do the falsetto

If you don't have a lot of money A good birthday present you can get for someone Is you buy Jenga from Kmart It's about four bucks Yeah no Anastasia told me I'm so sorry Yeah fuck you Anastasia I just think it proves how in sync us females are on the show

No you and I are so similar It's crazy. It's actually wild. I feel like I'm looking at myself ten years ago. Actually, you're not that much younger than me. Brie, I wouldn't call yourself ugly like that. What? All right, this is a good time for our old friend to come on up.

No, this is where you've got to reassure her. Don't be a dolphin tome. He's not listening. He's doing typical. I was looking for that Meatloaf song but I can't find it. I'm so disappointed. Just look at my coach playlist. Meatloaf sucks. Meatloaf does not suck. Meatloaf sucks.

The dish sucks but the singer is excellent. Nah. The dish sucks but the singer is excellent. Have you seen that sweaty mess at the AFL halftime show? It is bad. He's gone off the rails for sure. What do you mean? He was never on the rails. Have you seen that sweaty mess at the AFL halftime show? He's gone off the rails for sure. What do you mean? He was never on the rails.

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 Brie and Clint on? Brie and Clint are on air in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Kia ora everybody, welcome to the show, Brie and Clint How was your weekend?

Good, glad to be out of that gosh darn Wallabies jersey Oh that's right, You did your time. I did my time. And now you will receive the money from my mother, I'm guessing. Well, no, I don't get it. Hopefully it goes straight to the Cancer Society. Well, it'll come to you. Or she just makes a donation to them.

Oh, does she donate the money to me? No, you can't be trusted. It'll go straight to the Cancer Society. I mean, I'll do it if I need to, but it seems like some middle managing. I'll warn her. Yeah, exciting about alert levels being moved as well. So what, rest of the country goes to level one tonight and Auckland level two on Wednesday.

Yeah. That's good. And alert level two means you're going to have 100 people or less at a gathering. That's too much pressure. To be honest, I didn't have 10 friends. No, exactly right. Everyone's like, I can't have more than 10 people. It's too much pressure. To be honest, I didn't have 10 friends. No, exactly right. So when they've moved... Everyone's like, I can't have more than 10 people.

Here's a life hack. You don't want more than 10 people at your house. I had a gathering at my place on Saturday and it was so good being like, oh, you know, we would have invited more people, but, you know, with the restrictions. Yeah, and it makes the nine people that are there feel really special.

Yeah. They're like, oh, my God, I can't believe I'm one of your nine closest friends. They're in the top ten. I don't have five people that I want to invite to my house. So that's good. And I mean, if you're just getting ready to hit the motorway to head home in Auckland,

I hope you got some snacks. I hope you took a toilet break. Well, if you're going North Shore side anyway. Yeah. The other, like, did you find your way home was affected? No, but we drive at like like, 7 o'clock at night. Mate, the traffic was banked till midnight. Yeah, right.

I've just been looking at some pictures of the bridge. It's fully munted. Yeah, it's ridiculous. That bit that's bent, it's, like, popped out, and it's, like, you don't want to be driving on there. Anyone who's going, oh, it's not that bad, let me drive in the middle bit, it's bad. Like, it's pretty bad.

Yeah, it's not good. There's quite a lot of damage. Build the tunnel. Yeah, build us a tunnel. Give us a, um, can we get a train or something? Yeah, that'd be cool. Lots of money around at the moment, eh? We're going to start the show with some freebies from the warehouse.

Thanks to JVC, now available at the warehouse, in-store and online, you can upgrade to the next level with the JVC range of TVs, headphones and audio.

Well done, mate. Amazing. Thank you, guys. Nice work. She was onto it, wasn't she? Bree and Clint. Please be upstanding for a remarkable national achievement. An international study tracking the movement of domestic cats,

has shown that Penny the cat from Wellington, New Zealand, roamed further from home than any other cat in the entire world. I think Mittens will have something to say about this. Kia kaha, Penny. No, Mittens very centrally located. I think that's largely the appeal of Mittens, because you know where she is all the time. Mittens has been the most famous cat from Wellington and now Penny

is obviously trying to take over that role. Thanks for bringing up mittens by the way. We need to check in on that painting you were meant to buy of mittens.

I'd completely forgotten about that but we'll touch on that in the $1000 sketch of mittens. I think some millionaire has come in and bid $5000.

Anastasia, have you got the auction open? I sure do. So Bree's last bid was $515 and the current bid is with Big Bear V12 at $600. He's going to be gutted to know that Bree's budget

is $1,000. Yeah, he's going to be sad. Anyway, we've got, I think 7.30 that auction closes. We've got time. We'll deal with that. Put it in the show. Thank God we've got time. We'll deal with it later on. Anyway, back to got, I think 7.30 that auction closes. We've got time. We'll deal with that. Put it in the show. Thank God we've got time. We'll deal with it later on. Anyway, back to Penny the cat. She had a tracking harness attached to her.

209 cats in New Zealand got a tracking harness put on them for a week. They also tracked cats in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The median area travelled by cats in the study, 1.3 hectares. Well, give it to me in a measurement I know. I can't. I don't know.

What do you mean? It's relative, okay? How many kilometres away? I don't know. Producer Ben, can you look that up for us, please? This will make sense, though. The median distance travelled, 1.3 hectares. Nope, still doesn't make sense.

I'm just doing this as a comparison. Penny the cat roamed for 217 hectares. Okay? That means nothing to me. Well, it's 200 times more than the other cats. Okay, that's a lot. Look, I googled how many kilometres is a hectare

and Google went, oh. What? Google didn't even know. Ben might have a conversion. Look, I googled how many kilometres is a hectare and Google went, oh. What? Google didn't even know. Ben might have a conversion. Have you got a conversion for us? Hectares are done in like square kilometres, so it's just going to overcomplicate everything. Yeah.

And cats don't go in a straight line. It's not like a marathon, okay? They roam. Yeah. Anyway, Penny went the furthest. She disappeared for a whole week when her tracker was on, so she's doing it out there doing it for New Zealand. Do you reckon her owners put her in the car?

And they were like, right, Penny. We've got to win this thing. If you don't say anything, we're going to win this bloody thing. The New Zealand data, all the data has just been released. The New Zealand cats were tracked four years ago. Right. And not long after it was tracked, Penny roamed away for good and never came back.

Oh. Yeah. She's born to roam. She's born to roam. That's what her owners said. They said she wanted to be wild. God, this story. Grim.

Yeah, but she's got the record. And an incredible other result. It actually tracked how far she went and the record. And an incredible other result. She actually, it actually tracked how fast she went and she went 100 kilometres an hour. Oh, that is. No. That's disgusting, suggesting Penny got hit by a car. No, she went in the car because her owners wanted to win the competition

so they drove her. Yeah, so where is she now? What are you suggesting? Where is she now? I don't know. She's a national goddamn hero, Bree. Anyway, we've got to win this auction, so change focus.

Bloody hell. Trade me. Let's talk about Milo and Otis. That story's not sad. Next. Oh, wait. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio. This is the Latest.

Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean, tell us about the big artist who had her biggest hit ever, but she nearly gave it to another artist. She did. I love these songs because you've got to try and imagine how it would sound with someone else. Alicia Keys' hit, If I Ain't Got You, which was so unforgettable. It was the defining song of her career.

Almost got given to Christina Aguilera. In fact, it was so close. She was the one, Alicia Keys was the one going, oh, yeah, I don't really, I'll pass on that song. You can give it to someone else. They're picking Christina Aguilera. That's all good. And her manager was like, no, no, no, no, no, no.

You need to sit with this a bit more. We need to discuss this. This song could be huge for you. And it was. But you know what? Christina Aguilera would have done a good job of that song too. She would have done an amazing job, but I can't picture anyone else doing that song apart from Alicia Keys now.

Correct, yeah. Because it is her, literally. Yeah, no. Like her in a song, that's what I picture. I also remember because obviously Alicia didn't give her this song in the end. They did a collaboration on a song. That's my picture. I also remember because obviously Alicia didn't give her this song in the end. They did a collaboration on a song called

Impossible and it was amazing. So that must have been the song that she ended up writing and then giving to her. She gave her a credit. Yeah.

She was like, I'm going to keep this one but I'll get you later. You can do this one. I owe you, Christina Aguilera. She got her back eventually. I owe you.

All right. Thank you very much, Dean. You'll be busy today with Emmys and everything, so we appreciate your time. That's Dean McCarthy live out of Hollywood with the latest. Thanks to Old El Paso, you can launch into mess-free Mexican with their new tortilla pockets. Bree and Clint.

ZM Bree and Clint. It's Kygo. He exclusively gets divas from the last century to do his remixes now. I think it's cheaper. I called it last week and I said Donna Summers is the next person up. Yeah. Guess what? Donna Summers is the next person up.

I'm a psychic. That was a very good guess. Crazy guess. Has he done a very good guess. Crazy guess. Has he done a good job? Have a listen. The problem with these songs he's doing is it's very hard to make it better than the original. The original is so good. Yeah.

The way it's building. Yeah, right. I need hot stuff. Okay, that's pretty good. That's pretty good. We'll give Mum a die-on. Mum a die-on. What do you reckon about the Donna Summers remix?

Is that a bit of you? Mum. Oh, I go, yeah, no, I love it. You love it? Did you put the phone down? The remix is fabulous. Oh, I go, yeah, no, I love it. I love Summer Summer. Did you put the phone down? The remix is fabulous. Oh, you like the remix too?

Okay. I'm calling it his next remix, Tina Turner. No, we just played the Tina Turner. Oh, that's right. What a guess. Whitney Houston. Whitney Houston. Whitney Houston.

No, he's done Whitney Houston as well, Mumma Di. Anyway, hey, we've got you here because we've come to the end of a very long week of punishment for me and fundraising on your behalf. The Wallabies jersey has been retired. I did it. I did a full five days in the jersey, Mama Di. Oh, Clint, everyone would be absolutely so proud of you you've done a magic job

thank you fantastic I love how we've made it's like you've saved like a bunch of dying cats or something this is what I wanted

it's like you've been a hero because you wore a jersey for five days let me have this because you've given me none of this this is the this is the

this is the pat on the back I need from your mum okay I want to is there any more any more because you've given me none of this. This is the pat on the back I need from your mum, okay? Is there any more? Any more congratulations you can give me? No, Clint. The way you embraced it and the way you just threw yourself into it with no inhibition or whatever at all. Inhibition, that's it. I think you've done a magic job,

and I'm going to up the offer slightly because I think you went in above and beyond. He burnt the jersey, Mum. He threw it in the bin and burnt it. Oh, no, I'm going to take that back now. You can't do that. No, I didn't. I pretended to throw it in the bin on Instagram,

and God, I got some angry messages. It was just a joke. I've got it here. It's washed. I thought I could send it over to you, and you can have this jersey if you like. Oh, God. My dad would love that.

Yeah, okay. Mum, for 30 years, I've wanted any form of encouragement on anything in my life, and nothing I got from you my whole life. And look at how you're treating Clint for wearing a jersey. Well, Brown, I have to say, I have to give you an absolute wrap. That billboard was just brilliant. My mum messaged me on Friday.

She was like, this is the funniest thing that's ever happened on your show, ever. Brie put me on a billboard wearing the Wallabies jersey for the weekend. It was quite a good move. It was 50 make the high billboard. If you stuck with anything for five days long, you'd get this kind of praise from your mum. You know that, don't you? Like if you stuck with anything for more than a weekend.

Mate, I committed to a fake broken leg for five days to get out of something. I've got the commitment in me. Thank you for the challenge because through you, Mum and I, we've raised an extra $400 for the Cancer Society of New Zealand on behalf of you. So thanks very much. Well, actually, Clint, because you did

such a great job, we're going to make it $500. And is that Aussie dollars? Because that's even more in New Zealand. Yes. Yes, it is Aussie dollars. Aussie dollars. Well, all good Aussie dollars. Aussie dollars. Well, all good, all round. A bit worth it. Thanks, Mama Di.

Love you. Talk to you later. Bye, Mum. And good luck to the Wallabies because they'll need it. All right, bring her down. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has done an interview with Radio New Zealand and she's revealed who her crush is. God, that's a big scoop, isn't it?

It is a big scoop, yeah. Very big scoop. I didn't know that was a line of questioning they asked at the National Broadcaster. Yeah, that seems quite invasive, doesn't it? I thought it was more like, what's your tax policy? You know? They asked, who's your cartoon crush?

Oh, good question. Great question. I like that question. And they use it to break up boring stuff like, what's your 2021 fiscal policy? What's your opinion on public transport? Who's your cartoon crush? Oh, I'm in.

You want to hear Jacinda Ardern's answer? Who'd she say? I don't know. I don't think she's answered it very well. And I'm not sure if she got the question perfect. But I'll play you Jacinda's answer too. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, who is your cartoon crush? My cartoon crush?

Probably Deadpool. Okay. Yeah, a little unusual. Oh, yeah. He's not a cartoon. No, he's a comic. Yeah, he's a comic. He is a comic.

But I'm pretty sure. I think she's referring to Ryan Reynolds. She's definitely referring to Ryan Reynolds. There we go, right? Yeah.. He is a comic. But I'm pretty sure, I think she's referring to Ryan Reynolds. She's definitely referring to Ryan Reynolds. There we go, right? Yeah. Her crush is Ryan Reynolds. Because I can't imagine Jacinda sitting down reading the Deadpool comic books. And going, this graphic novel, ooh.

I mean, hard not to be attracted to Ryan Reynolds. Exactly right. Yeah. Yeah, you put Ryan Reynolds' voice in any character. He's so funny and, like, relatable. So I get it, but I wanted her to say, like, um... Like, who? Well, who's yours?

Oh, mine's easy, and it's always been the same. My Cartoon Crush. Ariel, listen to me. No, not Sebastian the Crab, no. Sebastian, do you like crabs? No, no, no, no, Ariel from The Little Mermaid. Well, I'm pretty sure that's crabs? No, no, no, no. Ariel from The Little Mermaid. I'm pretty sure that's Sebastian.

No, no. Who likes crabs? Fair enough. Mine's The Little Mermaid, but not when she's a fish. Okay? When she's a human. Are you sure? Yeah, 100% sure. Yeah.

Who's yours? Who's your cartoon crush? I'd probably have to say I had a bit of a crush on Action Man. Action Man. Action Man. Action Man. Amp it Action Man. Action Man. Amp it up. Amp it up.

But it was equal with, do you remember Kim Possible? Kim Possible. Do, do, do, do. Yes. Yeah. Nickelodeon? I think so, yeah. Yeah.

She was a babe. Was Action Man a cartoon? It must have been, right? It was a cartoon slash an action figure. Yeah, right. And let's just say I owned one of the action figures and my mum had to take it off me at one point. No, because she came in and Action Man...

What was Action Man doing? ...was doing inappropriate things with Barbie. You know, hey, we've all done it with the Barbies. Not we, but I mean we've made the Barbies have relations. It's okay. I think the less we say on this topic, the better. I've said too much. I've said too much.

I've just realised that I have. Just picturing your mum walking into your room and going, No, they were naked. Give me that action man. All they were was naked. They were naked in the spa. What is action man doing? He's getting action.

That's not the scuba action man. He's getting action. He was so hot. Chiseled jaw. All right. Action man's on the list. Ariel's on the list. Kim Possible's on the list. Oh, 800 the list. Kim Possible's on the list.

Oh, 800diles.com, who's your cartoon crush? Who was your cartoon crush or who is your cartoon crush? Yeah, who's on the list? Yeah. Who are you? Who's the cartoon... Please, someone, dig me out of this hole that I'm in. I feel very awkward now.

I think you should. I've released a secret I shouldn't have done. Share yours with us. Who's your cartoon crush? That's what we're asking this afternoon. Jacinda Ardern said hers is Deadpool. Which, yeah, we're going to give her that. We'll give it to her. She's busy,

alright? Doesn't matter if she didn't quite get the question, we're going to give her Deadpool. So we've asked you, who's yours? And, ooh, there are some passionate fans on the text machine. I love this question. Even though I've said too much. What have we got? Who have we got up first? Because we were talking about Kim Possible before.

Yes. Oh, my gosh. And there's quite a few Kim Possibles. What do you mean? Oh, a few people saying that they like Kim Possible. She's such a babe. She's so cool, too. Someone also texted and they said, because I think you said,

is Kim Possible Nickelodeon? And someone said, Kim Possible is Disney, you uncultured swines. Very sorry. Especially if she's your cartoon crush. I'm very, very sorry. They said, P.S. Johnny Bravo is the best. Johnny Bravo is a great cartoon crush. Yeah, he was hot.

Jason, g'day, welcome to the show. Hello, Jase. G'day, g'day, g'day. Who's your cartoon crush, Jase? I have to disagree. It is actually Shego is the crush, the villain. Shego. She was far hotter.

Shego, the villain? The green villain in Chris Kim Possible. Oh, yeah, she was hot. But they looked very similar, though, Jase. Yeah, many say that she was like the anti-Kim Possible. If you were more edgy, you liked Shego. And funnily enough, me and my wife actually agreed.

And I think that's why her favourite colour is green, is because Shego. I think she started it all off with her. Yeah, if you like the bad girls. Bree's mainstream and she likes Kim Possible and then you're alternative and you like Shego. Well, I always had this theory, Jason, that that was like her alternate ego and I was kind of like, is it the same person, you know?

Like, I never knew. Okay, good. Always like dealing with her own teen angst, right? Yeah, that's exactly it. This is turning into a great deep dive on Kim Possible. I'm really enjoying this. Kylie's here. Hi, Kylie.

Hi, Kylie. Hi, guys. Who's your cartoon crush? Who did it for you? Jessica Rabbit. Oh, yeah. Hi, guys. Who's your cartoon crush? Who did it for you? Jessica Rabbit. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. She is probably one of the hottest cartoons ever made.

Exactly. They just drew Marilyn Monroe as a rabbit, right? That's what they did. Pretty much. She's a babe. Yeah. She's a hottie, for sure. Very, like, sexy cartoon.

And very weird animal to choose to make so sexy too because I've never looked at a rabbit before and gone, oh. Let's hope you haven't looked at any animal like that. Well again, that's a great point. Like if you looked at a horse and went, oh that's a good looking horse. No, no, but imagine, okay, okay, let's take a horse for example. Imagine you make a horse as curvaceous

as they made Jessica Rabbit. Right. Oh no. That's what you're saying. No, too many limbs. Why does this horse have boobies is what you'd be asking yourself. Great suggestion, Kylie. Thank you for that one. A few good ones on the text machine. A lot of different people who are all naming different characters from Dragon Ball Z.

Yeah. Which I feel this one deep in my core. Goku, absolute babe. Yeah. Vegeta, not so much, but Trunks. What a hot dude. We've actually got someone to support you. Carla, hi.

Hi. You've got a big Trunks fetish, yeah? Well, yeah. I mean, it came out at very informed of age, around, you know, 11, 12. Yeah. Yeah, and I mean, he's just extra cool with his sword.

Why was it Trunks for you? Because I feel like I was in the same boat. Like, it was Trunks that did it for me over the top of every other Super Saiyan. Oh, I think it was just, it was all that mystery, eh? When he first came in, you didn't know who he was, and then you find out later who he is. He's also a bit of a bad boy. And he's blonde. Yeah.

When he's not a super saiyan. Weirdly, no one is texting to say Piccolo was there. And he can regenerate limbs. What's more sexier than a man who can regenerate his own limbs? Oh, no. Bree and Clint. I was out for a few drinks With some friends On the weekend

And on the speakers A song came on And it was so recognisable You know when something Is so recognisable As an ad You don't even hear it As a song anymore

And they've done Such a good job with it You go oh my god That's the such and such ad Don't hold back Yes That song That's the pop ballets

For Jeep The Jeep for the Jeeps. Jeeps. Yeah, perfect. It's exactly what I'm talking about. However, the song that we heard was probably, it's quite bad timing because we were all at this place and as soon as we heard this ad, we all wanted to go to the place that the song was an ad for.

I'll play it to you. See if it does the exact same thing for you. Do you recognise this straight away? Hungry Jacks. I mean. No. No. You're close.

Oh, I can see food being flipped. Yeah. KFC? KFC, yeah. KFC. KFC's completely right. Correct. And to the point that when that came on, we all went, oh my God, I feel like some KFC.

Wait, is the bar playing us ads for KFC? I didn't even know that was a song. So that's a real song. I thought it was just music that KFC had got. It's like the opener to Friends. You're like, wait, this is a real band? Exactly right. I played that song the other day, by the way, on Spotify. The Rembrandts. And then it automatically

auto-plays the second most popular Rembrandt song. Which, have you ever heard it? No. But the Rembrandts must have Which, have you ever heard it? No. Yeah. But the Rembrandts must have got so many plays from Spotify just because it rolls through. They'd be killing it. They'd be like, oh, my God, I can't believe we'll finally love our second song.

Anyway, I thought we could play a quick round of Jingle Bingo. Okay. So I've prepared a game. Jingle Bingle. Jingle Bingle. Bingo Jingle. Jingle Bingo. It's going to be between you and producer Anastasia.

Oh, you know that her and I Are really competitive Yes And quite similar with Our likes and interests Yeah She's got a local advantage Okay

So what I've tried to do Is only pick pure icons Okay Okay And also current These are all current Theme songs Ben and I are out

Because we prepared the game Alright Okay First one Who's this song an ad for? Is it like shampoo something? No. Oh, I can see it.

Yeah. It's on TV every night at the moment. Is it food? No. I don't own a TV. It's not for a car. It's not for a TV. It's not for a TV. Give us a hint.

Big, red, shed. The warehouse. Yes. No, Clint, I was saying I don't actually have a TV to watch ads on. Yeah, but you get pre-roll. Oh, yeah, pre-roll. Yeah, yeah. Love me some pre-roll.

You're such a Gen Z. You are so Gen Z. Go get your Lime scooter home. What happens when you watch YouTube? What comes up? Do you just shut your eyes? No, my YouTube's not working on my laptop. All right, okay.

God, you're in trouble. Let's go radio jingles. She doesn't use laptops anymore. Let's go radio jingles. And if you say you don't have a radio, then you're going to lose your job. Yeah. Well, she doesn't have a car. I don't have a radio, then you're going to lose your job. Yeah. You should have.

Yeah, correct. Oh, damn it. I was a butcher in a previous life, so. Your family is a family of butchers. That's just rigged. Bree and Clint. Oh, my God. What? No way. Iged. Bree and Clint. Oh, my God. What?

No way. I can't believe that happened. Oh, my God, no. Are you f***ing kidding me? Bree and Clint's Cliffhanger. Cliffhangers is where you tell us three quarters of a great story and then leave it there. Then what happens is you hear three potential endings.

One's the real ending. The other two have been written by Bree and I. And if you can correctly pick the ending, you'll take home the free mobile fuel. That's right. You'll steal it from Nathan, who's about to tell his cliffhanger. Hello, Nathan. Nathan. How are we?

Good, mate. Okay, remember to stop at the right moment. But please tell us three quarters of your story and leave us on a cliffhanger. Righto. So a couple of years ago, we had a new fella start on site with us, supposedly sort of new to the area. Anyway, a couple of weeks later, it came to Friday afternoon. You know, the boys were about to clock off.

We had a few beers and then, yeah, decided to head out for a couple more. The young fella can't come with us because he's underage. But anyway, we had a good night out. Comes to the end of the night and one of the boys ends up pulling one of these quite fine young lasses home at the end of the night. Okay, yeah. Yeah, fast forward to the Monday morning. This lady comes back into our work and then... And then...

Producer Ben has three potential endings. And then... And then... Producer Ben has three potential endings. And then... Ending number one. It turns out it was the new guy's mother. Oh, no! Ending number two. It turns out it was the boss's mum. Oh!

That's not good. No. Ending number three. It turns out it was actually the new guy's grandma She was early 40s So a young hot grandma But still very awkward for the next time they all had smoko Okay

Oh no Who did Nathan's friend share a wonderful romantic night with? Was it his boss's No so the first one was The first one was the new guy's mother The new guy The new. The new guy... The new kid. The new kid on site's mother. The second one was the boss's

mother. The boss's mother. Or the third one was actually the new guy's grandmother. Who was it? The man tasked with deciphering that is Carl. Hi, Carl. Hi, Carl. How you guys? How's it going? Good, thank you. One shot, one opportunity.

Who did the guy go home with? I reckon it was the new guy's grandma. Option three. Turns out it was actually the new guy's grandmother. She was early 40s, so a young, hot grandmother. Nathan, when you're ready.

Who was it? Who was it? It was the mother. No! Why did she turn up? Was she dropping off his lunch or something? Oh, yeah, I think so, actually. So, yeah, that's a really great point, Bree.

How did you guys all find out that it was that guy's mum? So she came in and actually walked up to him, you know, started having a bit of a chat. To her son? Yeah, to the son. And we all sort of, you know, our eyes sort of averted to them. And then afterwards we sort of said, oh, who was that? And he goes, oh, it's just my mum.

Have you guys told him? No, I don't actually work there anymore, so I don't know if the boys ever did. It's best he doesn't know. No, it's best he doesn't know. And you know what? And you know what? Mum's only human too.

You sound like a great looking bunch of men. Mum needs a good night out too. This is true. Her son doesn't need to know. Nathan, we've got free mobile fuel for you, man. Congratulations. Nice work. Wicked.

Thanks, guys. No worries. They were all so similar. Any of those endings all would have been equally entertaining and devastating. Bree and Clint. I know we talk about a lot of fun, light stuff on this show, and this isn't too heavy, but just a good reminder, I think,

for the females listening to the show. Because I read this article and it was talking about, it was pretty much a study. In 2019, Runners World did a survey with women and asked them, how many times have you experienced harassment whilst running? Right. And it's crazy, but 84% of women said they've experienced some kind of harassment whilst running.

84%? 84% have said they feel unsafe or have gotten some form of harassment. Would have thought it was higher. Well, yeah, 84% is very high. Yeah. But does not surprise me at all. And I was like, oh, I need to read this article in case there's, you know, any useful information that I can pass on to, you know,

the females that listen to this show. And it talked about how a lot of females and people in general are using those apps where you track, like, your run. Yeah. You know, you've seen them and people in general are using those apps where you track like your run. You know, you've seen them and people post it on Facebook or they post it and they're like, hey. Strava or Nike Run Club. That's exactly it, those.

And they're proud of their run, which so they should be. Go for it, I say. Or this article talks about how you probably should keep in mind if you're a female not to post those type of pictures because this article talks about how a lot of women have been tracked by men and they get to know their running route. Oh, my God. Yeah, so it talks about how it can be quite dangerous

for females to do that because depending on, you know, you don't know who's out there that can see your social media or can track those certain, you know, ways that you go. What a shit thing to have to think about. It's crazy to me because I remember we talked about this a while ago because this article, it talks about how many times has someone said, don't walk home in the dark alone or don't get separated from your friends or change up

your running route so you nobody can learn your routine yeah and i've like read that and went yeah my whole life that's pretty normal yeah like i can imagine how many females right now are listening like if you're listening it is instinct for me like every time it is like early in the morning or late at night i will carry my car key in my hand i've heard that yeah yeah i don't know where like how i've learned that but it's just automatic that you do it as a female. If you're in like a place where you don't feel safe. Yeah.

Oh, I mean, I don't know what my car key is going to do, but it's better than nothing. You know? He's sharpening that thing. He's filing it down at home. Yeah. But I know what you mean. It's like you'll have some kind of wits about you. Whereas as a man, I've never thought twice about it

unless I was in a forest. Right. And in complete darkness. And even when I'm in the forest, I'm concerned about werewolves, not people. Yeah. And that's what men don't understand about this conversation as well.

And I've had this conversation with Lucy, my wife, and I want to hear more about these conversations too because I have a daughter now and so I want to hear more about these conversations too because I have a daughter now and so I want to know the female perspective. And it blows my mind because guys just have never had to think about that. But yeah, because I've had conversations with my male friends and they're like,

what are you talking about? Some guys have. Some guys who are part of the LGBTQI plus community have definitely experienced this. Absolutely. But most guys out there listening. Most big burly men have never thought to themselves, oh, I'm a bit scared in this fully lit car park.

Yeah, no one thinks they're going to get pulled into a car. Yeah, like there's been times where I've been walking back from like a night out and I've ran home because I've just been terrified, you know? Yeah, I've never had my butt grabbed on the way home from the gym. You haven't? No. Have I?

Doesn't matter whether you have or haven't. You know, just anyway, I think a good thing to just be aware of if you're someone who runs a lot. Well, it's a shocking thing to have to think about. And rather than saying to women, don't post your run map, we should be saying to men,

don't stalk women. But I guess it's a reality for some people. I think it's bringing that conversation into the light though and pulling your male friends up on things if they say stuff that's inappropriate. And you don't have to do it 24-7, but just every now and then be like, hey, that's not appropriate. Yeah. And also further validates your decision never to run.

Yeah. I mean, it gives me a reason. It's not safety-based, though. No. That's more instinctive. That's just because I don't run. Bree and Clint. I said before, this is quite interesting, actually,

especially if you're keen to go on any first dates soon or if you're new, like, in a fresh relationship. Yeah, level one tomorrow around the country, Lesh goal, first dates. Well, maybe. It might be, you know. And Aucklanders from Wednesday can go on a date with 99 people. If they want.

If they want to. So The Bachelor back on. Speaking of The Bachelor, have you been watching the latest season of The Bachelor Australia? No. You haven't been watching it? No, I'm full up on reality TV shows. Yeah, there's quite a lot going around at the moment.

But this is all stemmed from The Bachelor Australia, which I know is screening in New Zealand at the moment. Yep. And there's a relationship coach that is talking about how wrong something that the girl said on one of the first dates with Lockie, the bachelor, did. What did she say? Well, her name's Irena and apparently she has went on and on

about how much of an outdoors person she is. Yeah. Because he's a real outdoors person. Yeah. Very outdoorsy, loves rock climbing, loves running, hikes, all that stuff. Yeah. Anyway, this chick, Irena, has pretty much said, oh, I love doing anything outdoors and all that kind of stuff.

Yeah. Turns out she actually doesn't. Oh, I see. And he said, so the relationship coach has said that this is possibly one of the worst things that you can lie about early in a relationship. Yeah, well, when it comes time for the truth to be told, you're halfway up a mountainside.

Well. And you're absolutely exhausted and you're like, I actually hate the outdoors. I'm an indoors person. I'm an indoors person. I love to lay. And I thought about my previous dating history and I've done this before. Lied about being an outdoors person?

Well, I didn't technically lie about loving the outdoors. It was one particular outdoors activity. Yeah. So I went on a date with this guy and I knew for a fact he was so attractive. He was a real avid surfer and loved to surf. And people who love to surf, usually it's like their whole life. They just love it. Yeah.

It takes up a lot of their time. Anyway, so I knew this about him and we started dating like in the winter and I said to him that I love to surf as well. Did you plan to learn to surf before summer came around? So I thought, I mean, how hard could it be? In winter? Yeah, how hard could it be? And I'd done a real minimal amount of surfing.

Yeah. And then anyway, I had to break up with him in spring. But instead of telling that you couldn't surf? Yeah. Why don't you just try being honest with him? Say, I had to break up with him in spring. Instead of telling him that you couldn't surf? Yeah. Why don't you just try being honest with him? Say, I liked you so much, I just pretended that I could surf. No, it was too awkward. Yeah, right.

Yeah, and then I'd have to go watch him surf every weekend. You're just feigning, you're faking common interests because you want to get the conversation flowing. Exactly. So we weren't right for each other anyway. Well, this is the thing. Maybe you need to accept that you're not right to each other. I came to that realisation. If you're not an outdoors person and they say, I love the outdoors, he's probably not the guy for you.

No. Because each holiday he's going to want to go hiking. Each weekend he's going to want to go tramping, you know, and you're not going to want to do these things. Later down the track, it's going to become an issue for your relationship. I'm very upfront these days that I'm not a super big outdoorsy person. Like every now and then, great, I love it. But most of the time, I love some home time. Yeah, right. What about you?

Am I an outdoors person? No. Well, yes and no. I think I found – I can't picture you going out for a tramp or an abseil. I love the idea of it. Yeah, me too. But I think I've found my person because it's not our motivation. I love the idea of it. Yeah, me too. But I think I've found my person because it's not our motivation.

She doesn't like it either. No, it's not our motivation. Your motivation isn't getting up on a Saturday morning at 6am and doing an F45 session. No, no. Or a hike up a mountain. No, no, no. No, no, no.

But every now and then maybe. But find your person that does love doing that and you're on. But find a person who lied about it and they will resent you for the rest of your relationship. That is the key. That's what it comes down to. That is the absolute key. I wanted to ask people this afternoon because I reckon a lot of people

have done this, like where you lie on a first date or early in a relationship to try and fit kind of into what you think the other person wants. Then it comes back to bite you in the butt later on. Yeah, we put a poll up on our Instagram, have you lied on a first date? 50% of people have. Yeah, right.

Which doesn't surprise me. Like I said, you're just trying to get common ground with this person at the start. You're just trying to keep the conversation moving. But eventually you'll realise you're not right. And I think the outdoors thing is like a definite, like, wedge in a relationship. Kia ora, this is Toby Manhai. I'm the host of Gone By Lunchtime,

a podcast for the spin-off podcast network all about politics and politicians, with me, Annabel Lee-Mather, and Ben Thomas, careering wildly from the very serious to the very ridiculous. It's not for everyone. I don't think it would be Ellen's cup of tea, but you, I reckon, will love it. Gone by lunchtime. Grab one now wherever you get your podcasts.

So we want to know, have you lied on a first date or early in the relationship? 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. You can remain anonymous. Relationship expert

has come out and said the riskiest thing to lie about early in the relationship is saying that you're an outdoorsy person when you're not. Only risky for you and your own well-being. Well, unless you're ready to get up and go hike mountains and rock climb and all that, then that's fine. Any lie in the early stages of a relationship, if the relationship is successful,

will come back to bite you in the butt. Yeah, because eventually you know everything about the person. Because that's the common ground. That's the initial common ground. And they'll go, oh, you love doing that thing. Let's go and do that thing. And you're like, maybe not. Can't wait. So I've asked you, what did you lie about in the early stages of a relationship?

Bex is here. Hi, Bex. Hi, Bex. Hi. What did you lie about early in the relationship stages of a relationship. Bex is here. Hi, Bex. Hi, Bex. Hi. What did you lie about early in the relationship? So I lied by saying that I would go on a second date and I told him I was going to be sick and couldn't make it. He came round to see if I was all right and we've now been married for 10 years. Shut the fuck up. What won you over in the end, Bex?

I don't know. He just wouldn't leave. Yeah. So you didn't want to see him again, and then you ended up marrying the guy. Yeah, I know. He was pretty persistent. Yeah, wow. Was it that he was caring?

Maybe that's what it was. Maybe that's what it was. I like that. That's quite good. Let's look to Hannah. Hey, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. Hi. What was the thing that you what it was. I like that. That's quite good. Let's look to Hannah. Hey, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. Hi.

What was the thing that you or someone lied about early in the relationship? So my now husband, we were on our first date, our first Tinder date, and he said to me that he could drive, that he didn't smoke, and he liked swimming in the ocean. Okay, great. And I was lucky enough to meet him on my OE in London, and so our first holiday together was in the south of France. And I realised when he was lying,

when he refused to go into the water any deeper than his knees. Right. So he didn't like the ocean. So he couldn't swim. He didn't like the ocean. Yeah. Yeah. And now he's moved over to New Zealand

and he just can't deal with the water. And I'm like, well, we live in Auckland. What about the smoking and the driving bit? Yeah. Was he telling the truth on those? He does smoke and he can't drive? Yeah, he can't drive. So he said to me that he had his driver's license and then it turned out he didn't. So when I was pregnant, we were like, well, you need to get your driver's license from over in New Zealand. So I had the unfortunate task of teaching a 30-year-old man

how to drive. Hannah, where did you find this catch? This big no driving, no swimming. I'm sure he's got a great personality. This person wants to remain anonymous. Hello, anonymous. Hi, anonymous. Oh, we've got two anonymous.

Yeah, your name is anonymous number two. Yeah, sorry, that was me. Perfect. No, that's okay. That was our fault. Anonymous, has someone lied to you on a first date? Yeah, so I went on this date, and probably one of the first things I asked was whether he had kids.

Okay. And he said no. And then a couple months later, I get this random text that he had something to tell me. Oh, no. And it turned out he had a son. Yeah. Okay. He didn't even tell me in person or anything. He just texted me, which was kind of a crap thing to do anyway.

Was there any inkling from you? Yeah. So when I used to stay at his house, when I went into the bathroom, there was always this Peppa Pig toothbrush. He didn't even hide the Peppa Pig toothbrush. No. I kept meaning to tell it, like ask him about it.

Hey, when are you going to tell me about your son who loves Peppa Pig was it a deal breaker that he lied about having a son not having a son well it kind of was because

that was probably one of the reasons I asked in the first place and he actually said I'd asked twice and I don't even remember asking the second time

oh no and lied twice pretty massive thing to lie about this is the thing and when it catches you out, it catches you out. Yeah. But then, in his defence, maybe that's why he...

It's hard. It was such a deal breaker so many times. I feel bad for people who date with children. It is very difficult. It'll be a tough space to navigate. Finally, other anonymous person, what did you lie about on a first date? It wasn't me, but it was my now husband.

And on our first date, he told me he didn't like avocado. And then four years down the line, I caught him stealing it off my plate. And it turns out he actually does like it. He just lied to me for four years. Because he saw how happy it made me and he just wanted to make me happy. You had to marry that man. Together for seven years and married for one. Cute. Any man who will pretend that he doesn't like avocado is a keeper.

Just to keep you happy, that's massive. What a sweetheart. That is so cute. Does he have a brother? No, unfortunately. Producer Anastasia, we need to find her somewhere. I was going to say, you're in a relationship. No, not me.

Jeez, you can't have all the people. Just looking out for Producer Anastasia. We're going to do Birthday Banger next. Brie and Clint. Hey. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Brie and Clint's Birthday Banger.

All right, Birthday Banger for a Monday. Three people's birthdays. What was number one on their 16th? So we're about to tell you. Hi, Kayla. Hi, Kayla. Hi, how's it going? Good, mate.

How are you? Good, thank you. That's good. What's your birthday? 1st of October, 94. Right, you were 16 in 2010 on the 1st of October. And Kayla, this is your birthday banger. Enrique. Henrique!

Before he removed his famous mole. I love that song, Kayla. What do you think? I would have to say that it's average in my thought. Really, I like it. It's got pitbull on it. Does that help? Definitely not.

Makes you go down, I think. She knows what she likes. That's okay. Let's get Simon on. Hey, Simon. Hello, Simon. What's your birthday? June 16, 1973. Good man. You were 16 in 1989 on the 16th of June and here's your birthday banger.

When you call my name it's like a little prayer I'm down on my knees Madonna. How do you feel about Laika Priya being your birthday banger? Oh, I reckon it's pretty cool. Yeah, I like her. It was a classic back in the day. It was.

She's an icon, Simon. She's just announced that she is going to direct and produce her own biography. Is she? She doesn't trust anyone else to tell the Madonna story. She would know it best. She would know it best. Oh, would she? Well, that's also a very good point.

I'm interested to see who she casts as herself, or if she just goes, I'll do it. Who do you reckon she would cast as herself? Herself. Yeah, probably, yeah. I think she would cast Madonna. Hey, well, Fittie Cent did. Yeah, yeah. And so did Eminem. But Hey, well, 50 Cent did. Yeah, yeah.

And so did Eminem. But 50 Cent was playing himself from like six years ago. Madonna needs to play herself from 40 years ago. Oh. That's going to be, but she can do it. If anyone can do it, Madonna can do it. Hey, she could pull it off. Amanda's here.

G'day, Amanda. Hi, Amanda. Hi. How are you going this afternoon? Good. How are you, mate? Good, thank you. That's good.

What's your birthday? 1st of May, 1990. All right, you were 16 in 2006 on the 1st of May. And Amanda, this is your birthday banger. Does that make me crazy? Does that make me crazy? Niles Barkley. They didn't do a hell of a lot after this.

No. Kind of a super group, but yeah. There's other good stuff a hell of a lot after this. No. Kind of a super group, but yeah. There's other good stuff, but this is the big one. Crazy. Do you like This Is Your Birthday Banger, Amanda? I mean, it probably got overplayed a lot, but I'll take it. It definitely got overplayed. There was a guy, Amanda, when we did the Friday Oki live tour in Hamilton,

and he sang this song, and it legit sounded like the original. Oh, he actually did a good job. Yeah, I was like, oh, this is going to be a train wreck, but he was fantastic. He was so good.

I think even though she didn't like it and she's already hung up because that's how much she didn't like it. I like it. I liked it too. Oh, I see what you've done.

Bailamos. He was a babe. He was a babe. Speaking of babes, producer Anastasia is... A babe. A babe. She's a babe. She's deep in the Tinder at the moment.

Well, Producer Anastasia and I hung out on Saturday night and I said, go on, let me give your Tinder a go. People who are in relationships love giving single people's Tinder a go. Well, it's a good way to see if you've still got it. Yeah, that's true. But also, sometimes you need a third party to overhaul your Tinder and go, this picture doesn't work for you. Just freshen it up a bit.

You need to know what the first impression is like and it's not going well. So you overhauled her Tinder. Yeah. Changed a few things on her profile. I think I picked a really good array of young men. Yes. I think I know what she likes. As in Swiped Yes to?

Yes. Yeah. We've got a similar vibe Anastasia and I. The only similar vibe we don't have is that you made my bio a fart caption. Hey, I'm telling you that'll reel them in. No, it's what

we talked about before. Don't lie in your first impressions. If you're not a fart person don't. I don't like fart jokes. You've got to lighten up a bit. It has got you one nibble on the... She's done well. Yeah. She did get the type down.

I said, moustaches, they're quite attractive. Big, burly men you like? No. Yeah, big, big, muscly men. You like a big guy

because you're quite tall so you like a big guy. Yeah, definitely. You said that. Yeah, you know, that's true. Yeah, and we had, yep, someone, someone swipe right to me.

I had heaps of matches. I mean, you had heaps of matches, but I had heaps. I'm trying to be humble here, Brie. Do you care to read the conversation? Because this conversation has been going on throughout the show where Anastasia's like, he's messaged back, and then Brie will help craft a message and reply. Could you just take us through this conversation?

This is so going to get bad, by the way. New Zealand's so small. No names, no names. No names. No, no. Brie messaged him on Saturday night. This is a make or break. How many months you got on that moustache?

Question mark, explanation mark. Yeah. And then I came to work and told Brie that he hadn't replied. Which I was very shocked at. It was a little bit of a disappointment. So she replied at 3.19 this afternoon, I must stash you a question. She double messaged.

Double messaged. Yeah, why not? First time I've ever done that. Yeah. And then he replied not long after, this mo grows quickly, Anastasia. How many months of growth is yours? Oh, not good chat.

We were all offended by it. Horrible chat. Can I say? Brie replied with an absolute stonker reply. Bro, this ain't your grinder, dot, dot, dot. Wrong app. Yep, that's good too. And this Justin, he's responded.

Oh, shit. Sorry, Oos. How orcs? Nah, he's not for you. Nah. He doesn't have good chat. Let him sweat for a couple of days. Yeah.

If he double messages, then maybe you can pick up the conversation. I cannot see him double messaging, but hey. He's not a superman, okay? Put it out there. He's just a guy with a moustache. You never know. You've already stood out because you've offended him. Yep, double message.

Double message. I mean, you're on track. Do you know how many DMs you're going to get from ZM listeners with mustaches tonight as well? If you've got a mustache and you're over six foot, inbox Anastasia. Can we talk about two-minute noodles for a second? Always. I love two-minute noodles. Right.

Why is there no meal more comforting, more delicious, and less expensive than two-minute noodles. I know. They're just such a great invention. I mean, Mie Goreng was one of my biggest staples in boarding school. 100%. Everybody's was. It was the best. Which is where I today have learnt something,

and I'm glad that I've learnt this, and I'm embarrassed that I hadn't thought about it before because I saw an article which said top five instant noodles. Okay. I was like, oh, power rankings, baby. I'm here for it. Surely Mi Goreng at the top. Mi Goreng didn't feature in the top five.

At all. At all in this top five instant noodles article I was reading. It's a New Zealand article. What's in there then? All instant noodles that have been purchased from Asian supermarkets and that's the life hack that I think I wanted to share and that's what I want to do myself.

Get in there to the Asian supermarkets, get some of the other flavours that you haven't thought of because who's going to do a good two minute noodle, an instant noodle other than an Asian supermarket? Well, we've got an Asian supermarket right near my house which we go to quite often. Yes, you do. It's a real good one.

And my flatmate, he actually loves the Asian two-minute noodles. Yes. And you get so much. Let me tell you some of the names here. And the real ones will know these and they'll go, yeah, Clint, welcome to the conversation. Is one a red packet? Yeah, there's red packets in there.

Mama Spicy Shrimp Tom Yum. Prima Singapore Luxa Whole Grain Instant Noodles. Producer Ben and I used to have a Luxa style one. Yeah, but you would have been having a Mi Goreng one, right? I'm not taking anything away from Mi Goreng, but apparently Mi Goreng don't even feature in the top five when it comes to the instant noodles that you can get in New Zealand in 2020. Okay.

Right? It did get me thinking though, so that's fantastic and I want to get onto this and I've also watched an episode of MasterChef recently where the whole thing, no, no, this was a good one.

Right. I like the episodes of MasterChef that I can relate to, like the toasted sandwich episode that I told you about. Oh, that's a good episode. Because I'm like, finally a dish that I can handle

and they go, make us a deluxe toasted sandwich. They did an episode which was all about pimping out two minute noodles. Oh yeah, that's cool. I'm here for that. So you started with a bag

of me goreng at the start and then they said, make them fancy. Right. Make them good. If you were going to add one thing to your two minute noodles that wasn't in the packet

to make them bougie, what are you adding to it? Fried shrimp. Fried shrimp? Oh yeah. Oh yeah, that's good. Is it fried onion? Fried onion. Fried shallots? Yes,. Oh, yeah, that's good. Is it fried onion? Fried onion.

Fried shallots? Yes, that's what it is. Yeah, fried shallots. You can buy them in like a little plastic container. A fried egg? Fried egg. Yeah. See, I'm not a big fan of the egg on noodles.

Really? No. Right. I love hot sauce on noodles. Hot sauce? Hot sauce is good. It's a good addition. How do you make your two-minute noodles, by the way?

What's your process? I'm always fascinated by people's two-minute noodle process. I think mee garang is a very elaborate process because you've got the three sauces, then you've got the dry powder. The two sachets, yeah. And then you've also, it comes with dry shallots. Crispy shallots, yeah.

So I put all of the three sauces into a bowl at one time. Yeah. And then I take- With no noodles in it. No time. Yeah. And then I take- With no noodles in it? No noodles. Yeah. So just all the sauces and the powder all in one bowl. Dry powder?

Yeah, you put it all with the sauces. Yeah. And then you get a saucepan and you boil your noodles so that they're cooked. Yeah, that's the key. Do them on the stove. Yes. And you take a bit of the starchy water,

like maybe one or two tablespoons, and then you put that in the sauce. Do them on the stove. Yes. And you take a bit of the starchy water, like maybe one or two tablespoons, and then you put that in the sauce and you mix it all together and you make like a bit of a sauce that your noodles can bathe around in. Yeah. And then you drain your noodles and then you put the noodles in and then the last step is you put the dried shallots on top. Oh, my God. Gordon Ramsay over here.

Far out. I'm telling you, it's elaborate. Yeah. If you don't, it can totally change the taste. I'm not going to say how I do mine. How do you do yours? Just similar. I think the one thing I'll say is good two-minute noodles

take more than two minutes. I agree. Sorry to all the people who we just made think about two-minute noodles when you're that close to home and you haven't cooked dinner yet. I'd, yeah. Sorry to all the people who we just made think about two-minute noodles when you're that close to home and you haven't cooked dinner yet. I'd love to. I was going to get them for lunch. Yeah, well, you get them for dinner.

Okay. Kay, you get them for dinner. I wanted to talk about personalised plates for a minute. Right. Because... You're looking at getting one? No. R-D-O-C-H-K.

What does that mean? Radio chick. I think that's already taken. Can you check, Producer Ben? I think it's taken. That was JJ's website in the 90s. Was it? Can you check if radio chick is taken on Kiwi Plates, please?

We'll come back to you. R-D-O-C-H-K or any variations that you can think of. What variations can you come up with, please? Because there's this story doing the rounds and it's about a guy who's from Sydney and he's a barrister. Not a barista, a barrister. Which is the one that makes the coffee, right?

No. Damn it, I always get them confused. It's the other one. Anyway, apparently he's in a legal battle at the moment over his personalised place. Well, he's the man for the job. Well, yeah. He's arguing it, obviously, but he owns a bright yellow Lamborghini,

so just something subtle, a nice subtle car. And the number plate that's on the Lamborghini has been deemed too offensive for people. Because I'm thinking of appropriate number plates for the Lamborghini. P-E-N-1-S comes to mind. What? Well, you know, someone who drives a bright yellow Lamborghini. Oh, you mean S-P-E-N-1-5. P-E-N-1-5.

Yeah, that'll work. Pen15 Club. Yeah. No, that's not what it is. Any other guesses? W-A-N No It would fit

It would fit You get six characters It would fit I wonder if anyone's got that We can get Ben to check I quite like if someone Ben, with any results on Radio Chick Can we get any results on Radio Chick?

We need you to check another one now Yeah, was it R-D-O-C-H-K? Yeah It's available Is it? Yes, okay What about boobK? Yeah. It's available. Is it? Yes. Okay, now can you please check? What about boobies?

We know that's gone. Yeah, remember that time that person called up and they said- Go B-0-0-B-Y-S. Remember that time that person called up and they said their grandma has been holding on to that personalised glass? Their grandma's got boobies. Yeah. Anyway-

Oh, sorry. No, not taking boobies. Sorry, man. No, not available. Yeah, of course it's not. Sorry, and this is an off-air one, the WAN. Can you check that one? Oh, yeah, check that one.

Anyway, this guy's number plate reads it's not available. Not available. I like that. Someone's got a sense of humour about themselves. Or... No, I think that's banned. There's certain ones that you're not allowed to buy. Oh.

Which is what this... Oh, well, this is cool because this is in Australia. So I want you to check if this is available in New Zealand. Okay. Australian barrister with a bright yellow Lamborghini. His plate has been deemed inappropriate. He's arguing that he should be allowed to have the plate on his car. He said it's free speech and the number plate reads.

I'm not going to read it out. Yeah. It's all in capital letters. L-G-O-P-N-R. Legopener. Don't say it out loud. It doesn't mean anything to me. L-G-O-P-N-R. Go sound it out again.

Legopener. Oh, no, no. No, no. No. I told you. No. But you didn't listen. You kept trying to read it out. Also, that number plate is the opposite of that thing that I just accidentally said.

That is literally. Right? That is the equivalent of a desert. LG, shut up. I hate to say it, but if you're one of the people who's sitting here listening to this right now, maybe you've hung around because you've thought, I feel like my partner might be cheating on me. Yeah.

Because I said there's been an article released from a woman named Samantha Rex, who's an author, slash escort, slash columnist, slash coach. Oh, we've talked about her before. Yeah, she's quite an interesting woman. Had a very full life. This is how I see what she does. Okay. She helps people cheat on their partner, and then she writes about the people who cheat on their partner.

Yeah, to help. She shares what she's learned. To help other people. Yeah. So she helps you cheat, and then she helps your partner know that you've cheated. She's like a real raunchy Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City. She's all in one. She's a

one-stop shop for cheating and relationships. But she's written a list and it pretty much says the eight key signs of a cheating partner. Hit me up. Let me know what they are. Let's see. The first one is they're being extra nice, extra passionate and change

their behaviour. Apparently they sometimes people overcompensate when they've played up. No, my wife's not cheating then. She cooks dinner for you every night, though. Yeah, she does. But you said extra compassion and stuff. Then I'll lie down on the couch next to her, and she'll go, can you sit somewhere else?

And that's how I know she loves me, and that's how I know she's not cheating. Marriage. Number two, they come home with wet hair and it hasn't been raining. Oh, yes. We talked about this one. Yeah. We've talked about this before. And a lot of the time people say, oh, you know, I showered at the gym or whatever, but

they could be hiding something that they've done. Yeah, right. Well, I'm going to say no, but my wife has a lot of time to dry her hair before I get home. See? Yeah. Number three, they choose to stay up late watching TV while you go to bed. Late night texts and hushed phone calls. Nah, she's straight to bed.

Love some sleep. I stay up late watching TV. Does that mean I'm a cheater? Yeah, so do I, actually. That's just, I hate that. But I'm in our room, so it's not like. Yeah, right. I can't take phone calls.

No. No. Number four. There's a sign that your partner is cheating on you. Yes. Written from a columnist slash escort. Number four. An obvious one, but they suddenly take their phone everywhere,

even the shower, and they have it face down constantly that you notice that they're doing it. I take my phone everywhere, but I want to control the playlist. What do you mean? Well, the music's playing all around the house, so I've got to have Spotify on me. Right. Or you just like to scroll through your phone when you're taking a poo? Tell the truth. Tell the house. So I've got to have Spotify on me. Right. Or you just like to scroll through your phone when you're taking a poo.

Yeah, well, that's... Tell the truth. Tell the truth. It's not for cheating reasons, anyway. Yeah, cool. Yeah, right. Number five, your indoor gardening life changes, whether it's either disappeared, they've lost interest,

or suddenly become Mr. or Mrs. Passionate. Yeah, right. So there's a change. I'm not filtering Mrs. Passionate. Yeah, right. So there's a change. I'm not filtering this through myself anymore. Okay, why? You don't want to share that with us? That's getting too personal. Number six, he or she becomes a bit of an a-hole at home.

Picks fights, tells white lies, accuses you of cheating and so forth. Yeah, right. Like I said, still not running it over myself, but good for you if that's helping you out. Number seven, they suddenly become righteous about people who cheat, saying that they'll never forget the people and their friends who have cheated and how horrible it is. Yeah, you and I have talked about that one as well. Overcompensating. Yeah, you're like, oh, I hate cheaters so much.

I can't believe they would cheat. That's disgusting. That's usually a sign. Sometimes. You're like, yeah, babe, we get it. Cheating's bad. Why are you talking about it so much? Why now?

Yeah. Like you've never been this crazy about it before. And number eight, if you feel it, nothing, absolutely nothing is more reliable than your instinct. That's a horrific one. Because now these people who have got this. They're like, I've got the gut feeling. I've got the gut feeling. I've got the feeling.

You're cheating. He smells weird. I'm not cheating. You just listen to Bree on ZM talk about cheating for five minutes Now you think I'm cheating Just ask them I think that's the best advice ZM's Bree and Clint The podcast with mobile smiles
