You love competitive eating challenges.
You love winning.
I gave you all those three opportunities today.
You know that I'm someone that can't say no.
I can't back down, and it ends badly for me.
Back to me and the highlighter.
Ow.
Are you okay?
How are you, Clint?
Are you good?
Thank you.
Jesus Christ. You guys suck.
What am I?
You suck.
Hold the hand up.
Now, let's go.
Before I shit myself. Are your pants still undone?
Yes
They can't go back up
Do you have to get an Uber home today?
No
I have to walk
And that's going to be a struggle
I'm so sweaty
Like I'm
The meat sweats
Is not just a joke
It's a real thing
What's this?
What's this?
Free walking home? That's it. It's a real thing. What's this? What's this? Bree walking home?
That's it.
I just did a real one.
Did you?
Oh, yuck.
Not funny.
It stinks.
Oh my God,
it's like Christmas in here.
Wow. So, behind the scenes, it's like Christmas in here. Wow.
So behind the scenes, there's a prize cupboard here at the radio station. Every radio station has a prize cupboard and most of the time we're not allowed in it.
No, we're never allowed in it here at this radio station.
And for some reason today, they were cleaning out the prize cupboard
and they've put it all into a room where you could just take whatever you wanted.
It's like someone's opened up a packet of fish and chips
at the beach and just left.
All the seagulls have descended.
God, we got some good stuff.
What did you get?
What did you get out of there?
I got a full car cleaning kit.
I got one of those.
I got a car cleaning kit.
I got a T-shirt.
I got a medicine ball.
A vortex.
I got a...
Some ping pong cups.
I got some sheets for my baby's bed. Oh, that's the best thing you got. I got a medicine ball. A vortex. I got a... Some ping pong cups. I got some sheets for my baby's bed. Oh, that's the best
thing you got. I got a teepee.
Actually, this is... I got a miniature teepee.
This is bragging. No, this is good stuff.
Should we send the producers out there right now to see what
they can grab and then we can give it away? Yep.
Okay. Let's get Ben on. Ben,
Ben, are you there? Yep.
Can you go into that prize cupboard room? Get the best
three things. Find the best three things you can find.
Yeah, okay.
Bring it back in 30 seconds.
Go.
Yeah.
And he's away.
All right, so he is obviously out in the office now,
and there's a lot of people out there.
Oh, yeah, he's going to have to fight people off with us.
He's going to have to fight for the best things.
There was some makeup in there.
I don't think he'll choose the makeup.
The makeup's good, though.
People want makeup.
A couple of old Vortex Mega Howlers.
Those are good.
It's a good option.
I love a Vortex.
Are we going to wait for him to get back?
Are we going to stay here until he gets back?
He'll be back in a second.
All right.
Tell us what's on the show today while we wait.
Today on the show, you can get free Troye Sivan tickets at 4 o'clock.
You've just got to be listening.
At 6 o'clock, if you've text the keyword for Celebrity Treasure Island,
we could be calling you with $2,000 to your own island holiday.
Oh, he's back.
And he's back.
What have we got?
Producer Ben, what have you grabbed?
Tell the people what they can win.
The best three things you've found in there.
Okay.
These, a bunch of cans of drinks.
We've got a six-pack of Pepsi Max Raspberry.
Six-pack of Pepsi.
Yeah.
A Vortex.
A Vortex Mega Howler.
Yeah.
Vortex is good.
And two nice warm beanies
for winter.
Should we bundle it all up?
Yeah, it's one big prize.
Right, one big bundle.
If you want drinks,
beanies and some Vortexes,
call now.
Oh, $800 at M.
We'll be back with the
winner of the best prize
in radio next,
Bree and Clint.
What a day.
ZM's Bree and Clint,
the podcast.
There's a show that airs in Australia called This Time Next Year.
I think I've told you about this show before.
I like it.
You explain the concept.
I think it's a cool idea.
So the concept is they interview people who want to achieve something within a year
and that could be weight loss, that could be, I mean, getting over something, that could be, you know,
training to achieve something.
Run a marathon.
Run a marathon, whatever it is.
Build a house.
Yeah, build a house with, you know, only using your bare hands.
I don't know.
Yeah, interesting things, right?
Interesting things.
So essentially they interview them first and then they cut to a year later
when they interview them again to see how they went.
It's kind of like stars in their eyes, eh?
They go through these magic doors.
Yeah.
And it's like a year disappears instantly.
And, I mean, the weight loss ones are probably the most interesting
because, you know, they come out a different person.
Exactly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And it's in the same episode.
You don't even have to wait.
Yeah.
Like, it's in the same episode. You don't even have to wait. Like it's great. One of the stories I saw on there the other night was about a guy called Scott Cunningham
who had a phobia that he wanted to get over.
Okay.
So that was his thing and that's why he went on the show and you go in there
and you make a pledge that in the next 12 months I will pledge to do this.
And he pledged that he was going to go through exposure therapy to get over this phobia.
What's the phobia?
I'm not sure if it covers this in the audio, so I'll say it first
and then we'll listen to him talk about it.
Okay.
So essentially Scott is terrified of clowns.
Oh, no.
Okay.
This is what happens to him when he sees them.
I get anxiety straight away.
My heart pounds.
I get short of breath.
I just got this thing in my head that they just want to hurt people,
and so I want to hurt them first.
I can see your face.
I'm like, I am absolutely shaking now.
I just don't know how I'm going to react.
My man, this is a serious thing.
It is.
I'm sick of being embarrassed about it.
Everyone gives me crap about it.
I just need to get past it.
You couldn't even go to McDonald's.
You couldn't?
You couldn't go to McDonald's.
You couldn't go to circuses?
No.
You couldn't go, what else, where else couldn't you go?
You couldn't go to those horror movies where the clown wants to kill people?
Oh, well, even I don't want to watch those films.
I don't think exposure therapy is right for him.
I don't think exposure therapy is the thing that's going to get him over his clown phobia.
I think it's just going to result in him punching a clown and going to jail.
Yeah, that's not great.
Anyway, in the show, he does it and he comes back and the host is dressed up as a clown.
No.
And I'm kind of like, well, that's a bit insensitive, isn't it?
But he's over it.
Oh, it worked?
It worked.
Wow.
Congratulations.
And now he's off to see the new It film.
That could have gone one of two ways, though.
It definitely could have.
Host of television show, stabbed by contestant while wearing cloud mask.
News out today about 70s iconic TV show, The Brady Bunch.
I mean, I don't remember when it was on originally, but lots of reruns. What for a spanking show back in the 70s
where one woman has three kids
and she gets together with a guy and he has three kids?
Yeah.
It's the modern family of the 70s.
It is, yeah, yeah, blended family.
And I imagine it was quite controversial back then.
We told you earlier this year
about how the Brady Bunch house was for sale.
Now, when we say house,
it's what they call in the TV world an establishing shot house. So it's just the house that they filmed and said
this is where it is. None of the television show ever took part inside that house. It was filmed
on a stage at some film studio somewhere. So none of the TV show ever happened. The inside of the
house looks nothing like the TV show. Yeah, that's all studios that they filmed that in. Yeah, yeah.
So there's a television channel called HGTV,
which is basically renovation TV.
Their new TV show, they've bought the house
and they're going to renovate the inside of the Brady Bunch house
to look exactly like it did on the TV show,
but the kids from the Brady Bunch, the original Brady Bunch,
are going to be the ones that renovate it.
All of the kids?
Well, all the ones that are left.
I didn't check and see where they all were
but I think most of them.
I didn't do the research on that bit.
This is grim now, isn't it? I don't know.
I don't know. What about Alice?
Is she dead? I'd say so.
Not Alice. I would say so.
Not Alice. Anyway, that's
happening. I think one of them had a drug problem.
Now he's making it dark.
I think it was Greg.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
Well, maybe this is a chance to get back on the straight and narrow.
We were talking about this and Ellie goes, what's a Brady Bunch?
Okay.
That is not true.
I said, I don't know the Brady Bunch theme song.
Have you ever seen an episode?
No.
But I know who they are, thank you very much.
Maybe.
Name one character.
The Bradys.
There'll be a lot of people who don't know,
but I thought it's so iconic that surely you'd know.
You're what, 27?
Yeah.
You should know it.
Should I?
Yeah.
Ben doesn't know it.
Just FYI.
Ben doesn't know anything.
Ben didn't watch TV as a kid.
Yeah, that's true.
Ben never watched TV.
Ben doesn't know where he lives most of the time.
Think of this as a social experiment.
Oh, you're going to make me sing it, aren't you?
We've got the lyrics to the Brady Bunch song,
and we're just going to go on once through.
Don't give her the lyrics.
No, she can have the lyrics.
She won't know where they go.
I would have to say it.
She won't know where they start.
Yeah, she can make it up.
Okay, am I singing it, am I?
The song I've never heard in my life.
Yeah, you're going to give it a go,
the Brady Bunch theme song.
I've never heard this song.
I don't think so.
If I have, it's back in my brain.
It's like Friends.
Okay, it's like Friends of the 70s.
Good luck.
Here's the story of a lovely lady
who was bringing up three lovely, lovely girls.
Not bad.
All of them had hair of gold
like their mother,
the youngest one in curls.
Cool, now give me the words.
I'm a man named Brady.
I'm busy with my...
Now dance, monkey, dance.
Living all together.
I reckon they should put this show on Netflix.
I think it would go well.
Maybe I'll watch it.
I like the one where Marsha gets hit in the face.
There's a busy episode.
With a football.
Marsha.
That one.
Don't pretend like you know.
Yeah, they carried that.
Zed-Em, Spree and Clint.
The podcast from iHeartRadio.
This is The Latest.
Live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Normally from LA today, Dean McCarthy joins us live from Columbia.
Are you really in Columbia, Dean?
What are you doing over there?
I'm literally about to fly to Columbia in like three hours.
Oh, wow.
What for?
To be honest, my friend booked a flight with me while I was FaceTiming them.
They were like, you're coming with us?
Shut up.
We're booking you the flight.
And they booked it while I was on FaceTime.
Sounds suspicious.
We're going there and then New York Fashion Week on the way home.
Strip him.
Oh, I'll bet you're going to New York Fashion Week on the way home.
What a perfect detour to take on the way to New York Fashion Week.
Hey, before we cast too many aspersions, tell us who Ariana Grande is suing.
This is the most random lawsuit I've heard of in a while.
Forever 21, the clothing brand, Ariana Grande is suing them for $10 million.
Now, no, she did not buy a faulty dress that she hates and wanted to return.
It is serious.
Here's what they did, right?
They used a model that looks just like Ariana Grande, uncanny resemblance,
dressed her up like Ariana Grande.
You know, with the little, like, pigtail things at the front,
the little, like, mouse ear things.
It looks so much like Ariana, the same high pony switch.
I love a high pony switch normally.
But in this case, not good because they were trying to make it look like Ariana Grande. So she's now suing them $10 million for this campaign that they launched.
Pretty big deal, actually.
It's a lot of money.
Yeah. I mean, sucks if you're just a model
who naturally looks a lot like Ariana Grande
because then you're going to get sued every time you try and work.
But it sounds like...
They've dressed her to make it look like it's Ariana Grande.
Say they lose, say they lose.
Is $10 million still a good get?
Is that still a cheap Ariana Grande?
I don't think so.
Have you seen the person? No, I haven't seen the person.
Dean, does she actually look like her or is it just that
they've made, I guess, her image and her
dress sense to look like her? Both. It actually looks like
her and it looks like they dressed up a lookalike like her. Right, so they're
really in trouble.
They went hard.
That sucks for that Channing Tatum lookalike we've hired for our new marketing video.
This is awkward.
Hopefully he never finds out.
All right, that's Dean McCarthy en route to Colombia.
Have a great time.
Thanks for you.
Bye, guys.
Bring me back a present.

Brie and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
The internet is losing their shiznit over a pair of jandals today
because they've gone viral for one reason, the price tag.
Yeah.
So the jandals in question are a luxury label.
And correct me if I'm wrong.
Is it Hermes?
I think it's Hermes.
Yeah, I think that's how you say it.
Hermes.
But it has an H.
And starts with an H, yeah.
And has a little thing on the E.
Hermes with an H.
Hermes.
Anyway.
I think it's Hermes.
I think it's Hermes.
I think it's Hermes I think it's Hermes
Hermes
But we don't know anything about fashion so
But anyway we do know
That these jandals
That they've got on sale
They're trying to sell for $700
Sorry what?
And when I read that
I was kind of like
Okay so there must be something
Super fancy about them Or you know whatever It must be ind, so there must be something super fancy about them or, you know, whatever.
It must be indestructible.
It must be the only pair of jandals you ever need to buy for the rest of your life.
And when I clicked into the picture, they literally look like a plain pair of jandals.
They're red on top, black.
And according to the Aramare's website, the sandals feature a foam sole.
Wait, are they a sandal or a jandal?
Well, now the website calls them a sandal.
But you'll know if you look at them.
They're a jandal.
They're a jandal, right?
They're a jandal.
Stop trying to fancy it up, Hermes, by calling it a sandal.
It's a jandal, okay?
It's a jandal.
You're asking $700 for a jandle, okay? It's a jandle. You're asking $700 for a jandle. So they've got a foam sole with a calf skin lining and technical straps.
Oh, who wants a calf skin lining in their jandle?
That sounds horrific.
Soft.
No.
Jandles, you wear them in puddles, they'll go smelly.
The leather will go rotten.
You want it as a rubber jandle.
Who would do that?
Like Birkenstocks or?
Oh, good point.
I love Birkenstocks.
Well, I've got a list of jandles here that I was wondering if we could go through quickly,
different kinds of jandles.
Just a quick yay or nay.
Are these acceptable jandles?
I'm going to come out and say $700 Hermes jandles, unacceptable.
Unacceptable.
And we'll get the producers in on this too.
You guys can work your way in on this.
It's a $30 Haviana.
That's your jandle that you want. Haviana. That's your jandal that you want.
Haviana, we got an acceptable jandal?
That is the only jandal in my eyes.
Yeah, okay.
The only one.
What about those spicy Havianas where the strap goes around your...
No.
You know the ones with the thin strap and they try to reinvent the jandal?
They give you blisters.
No to those.
What about jandals but they don't have
rubber straps
they've got the straps
made of cloth.
Oh yeah,
those ones are a bit of cloth
between your toes.
They get all sweaty though.
Yeah,
and then you wrap them
around your ankle.
They're hard to put on
those ones.
You need two hands
to put them on.
I'm going to say no.
No.
What about jandals
with a bottle opener in them?
Yeah.
Oh, handy.
What about all those places
you've been standing?
You really want to put that filth next to where you're opening your bottle?
Yeah, you put your hands on it.
All right, fine.
Three against one.
What about the jandals with the flask in it?
Yeah.
Oh, those are genius.
They are genius.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can put about four shots in your heel.
Yeah, and nothing suspicious about seeing someone drinking out of their jandals.
It's a shoeie.
Yeah.
It is the original shoeie. And the last one I had down, you've already mentioned, out of their jandals. That's a cure-in-try. It's a shoo-ee. Yeah. It is the original shoo-ee.
And the last one I had down, you've already mentioned, Birkenstock jandals.
Are you down with Birkenstock jandals?
I don't mind a Birkenstock.
Birkenstock jandals.
Yeah, we're good.
Birkenstock jandals.
Don't mind a Birkenstock, but you know what we really should get?
Some thongs.
That's a jandal.
Isn't that just a jandal?
Yeah.
Yeah, it's a jandal.
ZM Spree and Clint The podcast
Here's a story
Which might scare you
Into eating better
Um
A 19
I don't think that's gonna happen
Well you listen to this
A 19 year old
In the UK
Has gone blind
And deaf
After eating
Nothing but
Pringles
Sausages
Processed ham
And white bread
For 10 years
No garlic bread on the list
I'm in the clip No it is White bread Oh sausages, processed ham, and white bread for 10 years. No garlic bread on the list.
I'm in the clear.
No, it is white bread.
Oh.
What if it's multi-grain garlic bread?
Then you're not eating it.
True.
Yeah, exactly.
Not true.
Don't come at me pretending you're having a multi-grain garlic bread.
Garlic bread's healthy.
Garlic bread is not healthy, but that's not the problem. Very good for you. Garlic bread
as part of a balanced diet
is totally fine. If you're coupling
that with Pringles, sausages, and
ham, and that is your only
food intake, then you've got a problem.
I do love sausages. So this kid ate that
from age seven
through until now.
He's actually 19, so a little bit longer.
And now he's legally blind and legally deaf.
What?
And they reckon it's from eating that?
Mm-hmm.
Exactly that.
What?
Because he hasn't been giving his body any nutrients,
so his body is punishing him.
They've said, well, look, if you're not going to put the things in,
we're not going to give you any.
I do say this to my bestie, Big Gay Gorgeous Al,
who doesn't eat anything that's green. Right.
Or pretty much anything that has colour.
And he's an adult man. He eats, this is his diet.
This is no joke. He eats
meat. And not
all meat. Not the healthy meats.
What do you mean? Or the healthier meats.
He doesn't eat fish. No. Which I think is probably
the healthier meat. Yeah. He only eats
pork. Right. Bacon.
Yeah. Rice. Yeah. He only eats pork. Right. Bacon. Yeah. Rice.
Yeah.
And potato.
That's it.
So his colour spectrum goes from white to beige.
That's it.
And that's all the variation he has in his diet.
And pink.
How is he not fat?
Like.
Well, he is 6'6".
Yeah, true.
There's a lot of surface area to cover.
Look, it'd be cheap, but you're not giving your body what it requires. You know?
Remember the food pyramid from school?
You're only eating from the sometimes food.
They were onto something with that pyramid.
I know.
I love the vegetables.
Um, maybe you...
Vegetables.
I love the vegetables.
Oh, I love the vegetables.
Maybe you haven't gone blind and deaf yet,
but maybe this is a wake-up call for you.
Maybe you're listening to us at the moment going,
God, I am not...
I thought you were looking at me and I was like,
I eat vegetables. No, I'm talking to the people. You're very good-up call for you. Maybe you're listening to us at the moment going, God, I am not. I thought you were looking at me and I was like, I eat vegetables.
No, I'm talking to the people.
You're very good.
Right, thank you.
Brie had a vegan dal for lunch with chickpeas
and some kind of brown rice.
Lentils.
Yeah, there were veggies in there.
That's the main thing.
There were veggies in there.
This is my call-out this afternoon.
0800DALSATM, what's your bad diet?
What do you eat exclusively that if your parents knew about it,
they'd be disappointed in you?
Do you eat
like takeaways
24-7?
Do you not eat
vegetables at all?
Are you like
big gay gorgeous L?
Will you not touch
anything green?
Do you only eat
white foods?
Do you only eat
chicken and potato?
Yeah.
Oh,
800 dials at M.
Let's try and find
New Zealand's
worst diet
this afternoon,
okay?
You can text us too on 9696 if you can still see your phone ZLZM. Let's try and find New Zealand's worst diet this afternoon, okay?
You can text us too on 9696
if you can still see your phone.
Yeah, drink three litres of
cola a day maybe.
Let us know
back in a second.
Speaking of motivation,
we're looking for someone
with none
or maybe a lot actually.
We're asking,
are you sticking to a
horrible, horrible diet?
A story out of the UK about a teenager
who has literally gone deaf and
blind after existing for 10
years on chips, Pringles,
sausages, processed ham,
and white bread. That was his entire
diet for 10 years. How good's
white bread though? How good's white bread?
White bread is the best bread.
White bread is the crack of breads.
Yeah, stop trying to trick yourselves into thinking multi-greens.
No, it's white.
Just have bread as a treat and you're good to go.
Yes, I agree.
We've asked you, yeah, what's your terrible diet?
We've got some good texts.
Someone texted through and they said,
my son only eats meat and pasta and has done for years. No bread,
no veggies, no eggs, just meat and pasta. His future wife will be in for a treat dining
out with him. At least I can go to Italian restaurants, I guess. I'd be keen. This text
here. Hey, since going on to solid food, as I assume this means since you're an infant.
Hey, since going on to solid food, I only eat toast means since you're an infant. Hey, since going on to solid food, I
only eat toast, butter, Vegemite
and cheese and chips.
And I am 48. Whoa!
And I'm fine. Normal
as. Cheers, Donna.
Oh, just living the dream, Donna.
I didn't expect that to come from a Donna. Hey, she's
picked some good stuff, though.
It's a delicious looking chip sandwich that you
put together there. It is, hell yeah.
But how about some lettuce?
Carl's here.
Hey, Carl.
Hi.
What's the diet that you're on?
I'm 25 now, and since I was 16,
I've been pretty much drinking Coca-Cola and soft drinks since I was 16.
What?
Exclusively?
You don't drink any water?
Well, you don't eat any food.
Oh, like, that's
just part of the bad diet.
Oh, that's part of it.
Balance. It's all about balance.
I think you've got a bit of balance. You'll be okay.
Brianna is here. Hi, Brianna.
Hey, girl. Hi. What's your diet
consist of? What are you eating?
Well, it's a bit worse than Alan's,
but, like, I eat, like a tonne of chocolate per day.
And I also drink fizzy drink,
and I eat like 10 litres a day of ice cream.
Wait a minute.
Brianna.
Brianna, do you actually eat 10 litres of ice cream a day?
Yeah, but the thing is, I don't literally gain weight.
Brianna, are you...
I hate people like you.
Are you jealous, Bree?
I'm so jealous.
Thanks, Brianna.
Does she really eat 10 litres?
She might.
Who can afford to eat 10 litres of ice cream?
You know those people?
I've definitely known those people in my life
where you look at them and you're like,
if I ate that...
I feel like she said the chocolate and the fizzy
and we weren't impressed yet
so she added 10 minutes
of ice cream.
She goes,
I also eat 100 donuts.
Come on,
someone give me
what I'm looking for here.
I'm looking for someone
who only eats cheeseburgers
or something like that.
Breakfast,
dinner and lunch.
Something like that.
You're our last chance, Matt.
Matt,

ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
Time for a bit of a surprise.
For Bree, it's for you.
No, it's never a good surprise.
It is a good surprise because I know you're competitive
and I know you like to be a champion.
Is Paula Bennett back?
No, it's not Paula Bennett.
We do need to get on to that fight, by the way.
No, it's a chance for you to reclaim a title that you already hold.
Yesterday on the show, you revealed to us
that you hold a special title in Australia.
Oh, no.
You said this.
I completed the 1.2 kilo steak challenge. Oh, you did? Are you doing that one? No. Oh, no. I said this. I completed the 1.2 kilo steak challenge.
Oh, you did?
Are you going to do another one?
No, f*** no.
I'm never doing that again.
So that title currently exists in Australia.
No, you don't.
You don't live there anymore.
You live here in New Zealand.
My heart's going real fast.
As a special treat for you,
we have organised from the good people at Tony's on Wellesley Street,
Auckland's oldest restaurant,
another 1.2 kilo steak
challenge. Oh no!
Oh
my nemesis.
Oh my god!
That's half a cow!
What we have
Hello, nice to meet you. Lovely to meet you.
is the Grundy. This is farm-raised scotch fillet. Now it's not the tomahawk that you ate. What we have... Hello, nice to meet you. And you. Lovely to meet you....is the grande.
This is farm-raised scotch fillet.
Now, it's not the tomahawk that you ate,
but it's enough steak... Oh, my God!
...to be the equivalent, okay?
We've had to double it because they don't do a meal
that is 1.2 kilos at Tony's Wellesley Street.
Oh, I can't do this again, guys.
So we've got you two of the grandes.
Also, the sides, we've got you the roast taties. Oh, I can't do this again, guys. So we've got you two of the grandes. Also the sides, we've got you the roastaties.
Oh, they do.
The sauces do look good.
The gravy and a side salad as well.
And what we've done is we've blocked out the next 25 minutes
for you to take on the 1.2 kilo steak challenge all over again.
Why do you hate us?
Why do you hate us? Why do you hate us?
It's a special...
Okay, I'm going to undo my pants.
It's a special chance for you to do a special thing again.
I don't think I can.
I trained.
You trained?
I ate a lot.
To stretch the stomach out?
Well, what have you been doing recently?
True, eating a lot.
I think you're ready.
I have to work out in the morning.
Yeah, we'll get some protein in you.
What we're going to do is obviously close this computer,
get that out of the way.
We don't want to get steak juice on it.
And let's slide the steak right in front of Bree, please.
Get it there.
And we'll get you to put the knife and fork in your hands.
We're not going to start the 25-minute timer
until you take your first bite.
I'm going to give it a good crack.
You're going to give it a good crack.
Your bets are welcome.
Can Bree do it?
You can let us know on 9696.
This is ridiculous.
What time is it?
It's 4.30 in the afternoon.
You can also send in your messages of support.
If you think Bree could use a little bit of support.
Let's do it.
Let's do it.
Let's get in there.
Let's get in there.
You get a bit of steak, mate.
You get a bit of steak so we can start the timer.
All right, can't you sell a little bit of steak?
All right, here we go.
Shit, that is a lot of steak.
Holy crap.
Oh my God, it's so tender.
In three, two, one, let's go.
I am.
She's underway, everybody.
I need some water in here.
We can get you some water.
That's fine.
Would you like some kombucha?
Yes.
We can get you some kombucha as well.
Messages of support
starting to flood in already. We'll check back
in with Bree very shortly. Why am I
always the one that does these eating challenges?
Ask yourself that question.
25 minutes
and counting. Bree and Clint,
back in a second. ZM.
Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM.
You rejoin us, New Zealand, in the middle of
a steak eating challenge.
Mum, are you proud?
Are you proud of me?
Brie Thomas-El attempting to take on 1.2 kilos of steak.
One of her arch nemeses.
A food challenge she's done before and freely admits to.
I completed the 1.2 kilo steak challenge.
Oh, you did?
Are you doing that one?
No, f*** no.
I'm never doing that again.
Or so she thought.
Currently,
you
are eight minutes
into the challenge.
This is my Everest.
The messages
from around New Zealand
continue to pour in.
Bree,
have you ever had
that much meat
inside you before?
Yes, she has.
Like we said,
she took it on
at the U-Miner Club
on the Central Coast in Australia.
That was a good night.
Hell yeah, Bree, you can do this.
Another text message reads,
Bree, I hope you've got some laxatives handy, girl.
You can do this.
I'll pick some up on the way home.
And joining us on the phone, some would say,
Where you get your appetite from, welcome along Bree's father, Big Steve.
Oh, no.
G'day, guys.
How are you?
Bree needs you at the moment.
She's actually 11 minutes deep into a 25-minute,
1.2-kilo steak-eating challenge.
I'm sweaty.
And she needs her dad.
She needs her father to come through and tell her what she needs to hear.
You know my dad was there the night that I did the first one.
Oh, I know.
We've done our research.
Okay.
Take her back to that moment, Big Steve.
Let her know what she needs to do to knock this bastard off.
Brianna, just remember what I've always taught you.
Tenacity.
You've just got to be tough.
You've got to tough it out.
You'll be fine.
I'll watch you that first time.
28 minutes in, you're still at about, what, 150 grams?
But you've got it, mate.
No worries at all.
Remember I nearly threw up on the last bite, Dad?
Exactly.
But you'll be fine.
Big Steve.
I never want to see that again, to be quite honest.
Yeah, and you don't have to.
That's why we're doing it in a different country.
Big Steve, Bree's father, when she completed this challenge the first time,
was she staying at your house?
No, we were staying at her place, actually.
Thank goodness.
That was one bathroom.
I was going to say, but there was a period there
where you had to share a toilet with her after this challenge.
It was the worst depth charger I've ever seen, I tell you.
To Bree's flatmates,
Big Gay Gorgeous Annabelle,
Big Gay Gorgeous Ellen
and Annabelle.
Just letting you know
what's coming.
Oh my God,
even I'm distracted.
I'm flustered.
We're on the cusp
of greatness here,
Big Steve, okay?
We're working on something.
I've got a sewer.
Sweaty up a little bit. Sweaty upper lip alert.
You are now 12 and a half minutes in.
We're going to leave you to it again.
Just for a visual update, you can't see this
unless you check our Instagram story at the moment,
Bree and Clint, where you can see some stuff.
I would say Bree is just about to hit the 600 gram mark.
I reckon we're halfway.
We're halfway time-wise.
We are halfway steak-wise. We're halfway steak-wise.
Stay tuned, New Zealand. The quest continues.
Brie and Clint.
ZM's Brie and Clint. The podcast.
And Brie is taking on 1.2
kilos of steak. You are really gunning it.
You are really absolutely putting the hammer down.
Time update. Let's get you one.
You have 25 minutes in which to complete
this whole challenge.
Currently, you are sitting at the 16-minute mark.
That means you have nine minutes left to take down
what I would hazard a guess to say
under a third of the steak is left.
We are allowing her to not eat the tendony bits,
you know, those bits, the gristly bits,
of which there's not many, but those are going to the side.
You are just left with beautiful, pure steak.
1.2 kilos of it.
Oh, we should have weighed you.
We should have weighed you before you ate it
and then weighed you afterwards.
I'm crying glad we did it.
The messages of support continue to flood in from around New Zealand.
Hans is on the phone.
Hi, Hans.
Hey, how's it going?
You're live with Bree.
She needs your help right now. What have you got to say?
Ah, look, Bree, I just
wanted to say if anyone can do it, you can do it,
girl. Thank you, mate. Appreciate that.
Hans, is this something you would take on
yourself? God, no.
They don't even do
this meal. We've got the good people at
Tony's Wellesley Street to bring this to us.
They don't do 1.2 kilos.
I'm so sweaty.
They've doubled a dish that they do regularly just to be able to do this.
We do have a side of potatoes and salad.
Those are just for if you feel like a bit of a palate cleanser, okay?
Those are not part of the challenge.
If I'm still hungry.
Yeah, those are if you're just still hungry afterwards.
Eight minutes remaining.
We're going to take a break, and when we come back, we will know,
has Bree achieved her goal round two?
1.2 kilos of steak.
Don't go anywhere, New Zealand.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
Yesterday on the show, these words were uttered.
I completed the 1.2 kilo steak challenge.
Oh, you did?
Are you doing that one?
No, f*** no.
I'm never doing that again.
I'm never doing that again. I'm never doing that again
until today.
We have presented Bree
with 1.2 kilos of steak.
We have given her 25 minutes
in which to tackle 1.2 kilos
of steak. You had a revelation
earlier about the tomahawk one you did the other time
didn't you? I realised
that it was 1.2 kilos
with the bone included. This time it's Scotch
fillet. This time we are off the bone. We have no bone involved. Before we find out the results,
let's go to Debbie. Hi, Debbie. Hi there. Where do your faith levels lie in Brie,
Brie the meat-eating machine? Sorry, what was that? I said, how much faith do you have in Bree in this challenge?
Oh, 100%.
Appreciate that, Debbie.
I don't know how much faith my pants have.
You can do this, Bree.
Get it in ya.
Get it in ya.
Get it in ya.
Her speech has slowed down.
Her brow has started to sweat.
But I can confirm, New Zealand, Bree Thomasel has completed 1.2 kilos of
steak.
With time to spare.
With a time of 24 minutes and 45 seconds.
She's done it, New Zealand.
She has knocked it off.
It's all in here.
Woo-hoo.
Woo-hoo.
I feel so sick.
Is there anybody you'd like to thank?
Is there any?
I'd like to thank the top button of my pants for always being there for me
and putting up with me and my mum and dad.
And your mum and dad, yeah.
They're so proud of me.
And Debbie.
And Debbie, thank you so much for your support, Debbie.
You got me across the line.
What about me?
Good on you, Bree.
What about me?
I give you all these eating challenges. Oh, yeah. Thank got me across the line. What about me? I give you all these eating challenges.
Oh yeah, thank you so much for that.
Where you
watch me eat a late
lunch at 2.35.
I watched Bree eat a whole
vegan dal just before we went on air this
afternoon and I was like, oh, that's not going to help.
Guys, the meat
sweats are real. I'm not even joking.
I forgot. She's done it, New Zealand
Congratulations
This is the greatest moment of my life
Last night
I did something that I do every night, Clint
And I didn't realise how many people were with me on this
But when I get home from work, I have some dinner
and then I usually sit on my bed
and I'll probably scroll through my phone for a bit
and I'm like, oh, I should go shower.
And then I'm like, oh, I'll watch one episode of something on Netflix
and then I'll go have a shower.
And then I'll procrastinate for a bit more
and I'll do some vacuuming. And I was like, after I vacuum the room, I'll go for a shower and then I'll procrastinate for a bit more and I'll do some vacuuming.
And I was like, after I vacuum the room, I'll go for a shower.
Then I'll go and have a shower, yeah.
And then this continues on, this process of procrastinating until it's about, oh, 11 o'clock
at night and I eventually go have a shower.
Do you do the thing that I do where you're constantly making deals with yourself?
Yes.
And so you're like, oh, well, look, the vacuum does need doing.
So look, if I do it now, then I won't have to do it tomorrow.
And then I can have an extra shower then.
Exactly right.
Or go, okay, 9.45.
When it hits 45, that's enough Instagram.
Well, Instagram, what I'll do is I'll scroll five more posts,
just five more, and then I'll stop.
And then I'll go and have that shower.
And then you do five and you go, oh, one of those was sponsored.
It doesn't count.
I'll just do five more.
Five more.
I'll just do five more.
And then I try and do stuff to entice me to go.
I'm like, if you go for a shower right now,
you can have a treat when you get out.
Like you're some kind of kid.
I know.
Like you're a baby avoiding a bath.
It's ridiculous.
Anyway, I put this on my
Instagram and the amount of people
that have messaged me back saying they
do the exact same thing. But all these different
things that they do to procrastinate.
Yeah, I think all of us since we got
our freedom, aka we moved out of mum's house,
it's too much for us. It is.
I don't think we're responsible enough
to handle it. No. Yeah. And that's why
I want to ask this afternoon,
what's your go-to procrastination before showering?
Yeah, what do you do to make yourself not have to get in there
for an extra 15 minutes, 20 minutes, maybe an hour?
We'll take all of them.
Yeah.
0800 dial ZM.
What are you doing procrastinating before a shower?
You can text us also on 9696.
Now, this is very different to another conversation topic.
What are you doing in the shower, okay?
No, that's different.
That's tomorrow.
And that's after six o'clock.
Yeah, after six o'clock.
Yeah.
In the danger zone.
What is your procrastination of choice before showering?
You know what I'm talking about.
You get home from work, you cook dinner, and then you're like,
all right, probably time to go wash the old bod.
And then for some reason you find all these things to do.
I'm a morning showerer.
Are you?
Yeah, and that's a good trick to use if you're a shower procrastinator
because if you have to start work at 8.30, you can't mess around.
Whereas I don't have to leave the house until midday.
So that's a bad combination for a shower procrastinator and a morning showerer.
Very bad.
Are you like me, though?
When you get in the shower, I'm like, oh, I don't want to get out.
Love it.
Love it.
Man, I wish I got in here 45 minutes ago.
And then you're expert level if you put a towel on
and then you sit on your bed for an hour in your towel.
Oh, yeah, afterwards.
That's expert level.
Just on the side of the bed.
Sometimes I don't have my phone for that.
I just sit there regretting things.
Someone texted and said,
Bree, you know your phone is waterproof, right?
You could Instagram in the shower at the same time.
Oh, it's a game changer.
Yeah.
But then I'll use so much water.
You can do all kinds of things on your phone in the shower.
Hey, Kim.
Hi.
Kim, what's your procrastination of choice before showering?
It's not me, but it's my partner.
He goes to the toilet for a really long time.
Oh, that is good.
I'm pretty sure it's like his me time where he watches a lot of videos
and then takes a little bit of a poop.
You're describing.
No, don't.
You ruin Kim's image of her wonderful husband.
That's all he's doing.
Don't you cast aspersions at her, man.
He's definitely probably watching PG videos and just doing a poop.
Exactly.
Yep, that's it.
Just don't go in.
Jill's here.
Hey, Jill.
Hi, Jill.
Hi. What's your. Hey, Jill. Hi, Jill. Hi.
What's your procrastination of choice?
Wait until you play a song that I like and I'll listen to that and then have a shower.
That's good.
Have you got a radio in the shower?
No, it's in my lounge.
Oh, are you talking to us personally?
Yeah.
Oh, the radio station.
You will use this radio show as your procrastination of choice
before getting in the shower?
Yeah.
What sort of songs do you like?
Are you trying to stay out of the shower at the moment?
What's an unshower song?
The top ones.
The latest one that I'll wait for until you play is Lover by Taylor Swift.
Oh, yeah.
Or Hire by Whitney Houston.
Yeah, and are you trying to stay?
I'll wait until you play them, and after that I'll go Houston. Yeah, and are you trying to stay... I went there, played them
and after that I'll go and have a
shower. Are you trying to stay... As long as it's not before
the countdown.
As long as it's not... Yeah, not before
the countdown. You like Cam
Mansell in the countdown. Are you
trying to avoid a shower at the moment?
Are you, Jill? No,
it's a bit early. Oh, you better...
I mean, yeah, I am avoiding it. It's a bit early. Oh, you better. I mean, yeah, I am avoiding it.
It's a bit early. Jill,
look out if we put Whitney Houston on,
you're showering, alright?
Hi, Holly. Load Whitney
up, Jill. Holly, how are you?
Hi. Good, thanks. Holly, what are
you doing? I end
up brushing my cats for like two hours.
I thought you were
going to say something else. Those poor cats. If you're doing that every day, your cats for like two hours. I thought you were going to say something else.
Those poor cats.
If you're doing that every day, your cats must be nearly bald.
They are bald now.
They're like, Jesus Christ, woman, we are groomed, all right?
Please go and wash yourself for a change.
They deserve a bit of a brush, don't they?
They do, but you deserve a wash.
The cats would be like, oh, not this woman again.
Just go shower for God's sake.
Oh, that is very good.
Thank you, Holly.
This is for Jill. Jill. Jill, that is very good. Thank you, Holly.
This is for Jill.
Jill.
Jill, if you're listening, it's shower time.
Time to get soapy, Jill.
Bree and Clint, sit in.
Sit in, Spree and Clint, the podcast.
About this time yesterday, we went into a bit of a Thomas L family Christmas dilemma.
And it was the dilemma of my brother's dating this new girl and she said to him that she wants to go away for Christmas.
Not to see her family, just to go on holidays during Christmas.
She wanted to rob you of your precious brother.
I asked the question, was I being selfish?
Because, I mean, I never get to see him
and it's the one time of the year where we're all together.
And, I mean, they haven't even been dating a year.
Wouldn't you want to make a good impression
and bring him to the family Christmas?
Yeah, you put your case across well yesterday,
and we had a lot of feedback.
Anyway.
Most of it in support of you.
There's been, um, what's the word?
An update?
An update.
There's been an update.
Talked to my brother.
He was very good about it.
He said he wants to be at home for Christmas.
He said he was going to talk to his new girlfriend.
So he's going to put his foot down?
He's going to talk to his new girlfriend
and they're going to come to an agreeance on something.
Agreeance being what you want.
Hopefully.
Good result for you. Let's call my mum just to see where she's at with the you want. Hopefully. Good result for you.
Let's call my mum just to see where she's at with the whole thing.
Sure.
And maybe play a bit of a joke on her and say that
because my brother's not coming to Christmas.
I'm not coming either.
Oh, you're evil.
Okay, let's give it a go.
Hi, Rana.
Hi, Mum.
How are you going, mate?
Oh, not too bad.
A bit tired.
I've got a bit of bad news. Nothing too bad. Oh, what? Don't worry. Hi, Mum. How are you going, mate? Oh, not too bad. A bit tired. I've got a bit of bad news.
Nothing too bad.
Oh, what?
Don't worry.
Nothing too bad.
I actually, so I made a bet with Clint.
It was like a couple of weeks ago.
You know when we were talking about Aidan maybe not be,
he might not be at Christmas because him and Kim wanted to go away?
Yeah.
Anyway, so I was telling Clint about that a couple of weeks ago
and he's like, oh, well, it's not going to be the same
if your brother's not there.
He's like, I'll bet you $1,000 and we played this game
where if I lost, I had to stay back over Christmas time
and house sit for him with his cats.
But if I won, I would have got $1,000. Anyway,
the results came out today and I lost. No. Well, too bad. I would say that you always
have to pay your bets, but that one you're not paying. You can stay there over Easter.
I shook on it. No, Brianna. Well, okay, put his cats in cages and come over.
Bring them with you.
Oh, bring the cats with me.
Yeah, bring them with you.
We've already got enough cats.
All the more the merrier.
Yeah, they'll be right.
Yeah, but Aidan's not going to be there anyway.
He is going to be there.
What, so they've made a decision?
Yes, they're going to be there.
Well, now I'm really stuffed up then, haven't I? Because I thought he wasn't going to be there. What, so they've made a decision? Oh, no, no. Yes, they're going to be there. Well, now I've really stuffed up then, haven't I?
Because I thought he wasn't going to be there.
Well, who cares if he's there or not?
What about us?
Well, he's the only one in the family.
What about the rest of the family?
He's the only one that I like.
Oh, Brianna, what a load of bull.
No, honestly.
Well, it's stupid.
Yeah, I'll put Clint on.
You can talk to him about it.
You're going to put my cats in cages?
Yeah, we're going to bring them over here for Christmas, Clint.
They're going to have Christmas in Queensland.
I tell you what, I'll let Brianna, I know how much Christmas means to you,
I'll let her out of the bet, but it's going to cost you $1,000, okay?
Oh, well, she might have to look after me.
Am I worth nothing to you, Mum?
Nothing.
How about we come over there and we'll all have Christmas over there
and we'll all look after your cats and then we'll trash your house
and then come home.
The booze is on Clint this year.
Did I say booze or poos?
I don't know what you said.
Both.
Thanks, Mama Di.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's birthday banger.
Focus on something we can control, and that's birthday banger.
Yeah, we're going to take your birthdays,
figure out what was number one on your 16th,
and then we'll pick one to play.
Daniel is here.
Hi, Daniel.
Hi, Daniel.
Hello.
What's your birthday, Dan?
28th of December 2000.
Okay, you were 16 in 2016 on the 28th of December,
and back on that day, this was number one.
Yeah.
Clean Bandit?
Clean Bandit.
And Anne-Marie?
That's correct.
Rock-A-Bye.
How do you feel about that
as your birthday banger?
Wow, I think that's an amazing song
and I'm so happy.
Are you really?
Yeah.
It's pretty good.
Okay, cool.
Could be way worse.
Could be worse, yeah.
All right, if he likes it, I'm not going to say what I really think.
Chef is here.
Hi, Chef.
Hey, mate.
How you going?
Hello, mate.
What's your birthday?
7th of January, 1983.
Okay, you were 16 in 1999 on the 7th of January,
and this is your birthday bag up.
Oh, chef.
Oh.
Awesome.
How good.
It is the remake of the Bee Gees hit Tragedy by Steps. Steps, right?
That's correct.
How do you feel about that, chef?
Oh, yeah, it's pretty good.
Not too bad.
The original's better, but I'll take it.
Were you a big Stips fan, Chef?
Nah, not really, mate.
Oh, you sound like it.
Okay.
Wait there, I like Chef.
Here's Eric.
Hey, Eric.
Hello, Eric.
Hiya.
What's your birthday, Eric?
12th of January, 1977.
Okay, you were 16 in 1993 on the 12th of January, 1977. Okay, you were 16 in 1993 on the 12th of January.
And on that day, this was number one.
And I...
Oh, there we go.
Stop it.
Woo-hoo.
I always loved you.
Don't try and sing, Whitney.
Sorry.
Yeah, that's for that lady who's waiting for the shower.
She can have her shower now. Jill. Very sing, Whitney. Sorry. Yeah, that's for that lady who's waiting for the shower. She can have her shower now.
Jill.
Very good, Eric.
I like that.
Eric, you might not know this,
but this is the single most important birthday banger song that exists.
Oh, that's why it's for my birthday, you know?
It's an important day.
This was the song, Eric, where Ross Boss at one point
tried to fight his way into the studio so we could not play it.
This is where we established dominance as the alpha of ZM over Ross.
Ever since then, he's never been able to look us in the eye ever again.
We won.
So you win birthday banger.
Congratulations.
Here we go.

It is the holy grail of birthday bangers.
This text sums it up.
Switney.
I had to look down to see if I'd put the air con on
because I got cold, hard shivers.
Goosies.
What a great song. What a great song.
What a great song.
Glad she's back too with new music.
You've got to stop making that joke.
Cheers.
Playing that High I Love One with Kygo.
We've played this on Birthday Banger too, haven't we?
Oh, we have.
We're not scared to play anything.
We'll play all the Whitney we can muster.
We ain't scared of nobody,
especially not you, Ross.
Oh my God.
Guess what we've just done?
What?
We've played
back-to-back Whitney.
Oh, because we played
Whitney earlier.
On the show today.
Good.
By accident.
Oh, Jill is going to be so clean.
She's... I still don't know if Jill gets in the shower when she hears Whitney
or if Whitney keeps her out of the shower.
I don't know.
I don't remember.
Can we please get Jill back on the phone to see if she's showered?
Yeah, we'll get her on now.
The update.
ZDM Spree and Clint, the podcast on ZDM.
In a very long running storyline
Please welcome back to the show
The lady who called us earlier
About what she does to procrastinate for a shower
To Jill
Hi Jill
Hi Jill
Hi
Look you called us earlier
And you said
What you like to do when you're procrastinating
Before you have a shower
Is you wait for the radio
Which is us
To play a good song
Now we're not clear on whether that song, and you said Whitney Houston, meant you would
get in the shower or you'd use that song to stay out of the shower.
Use a song to stay out of the shower until it's finished and then go have a shower.
So, now, we need a drum roll, Clint, because we have played back-to-back Whitney Houston
on the shower. Yeah, you said Whitney was one of the artists that could keep you out of the shower. So, we need a drum roll, Clint, because we have played back-to-back Whitney Houston on the show.
Yeah, you said Whitney was one of the artists that could keep you out of the shower.
So we need to know.
Jill, have you had a shower?
No, I'm procrastinating.
What was the other song that you said would keep you out of the shower, Jill?
Taylor Swift, Lover.
Oh, it's on now.
Here it is, girl. You're going to be dirty all night. Too much. Here it is, Jill? Taylor Swift lover. Oh, it's on now. Here it is, girl.
You're going to be dirty all night.
Too much.
Here it is, Jill, you filthy girl.
We can leave the Christmas library in Clint.
The podcast, ZM.
What about the headline of this story?
It says here, you're probably married to the wrong person.
I am?
Here's why.
Caught my attention. Not that I'm married. No. But I'm like, ooh, that's why. Caught my attention.
Not that I'm married.
No.
But I'm like, ooh, that's interesting.
Yeah.
And it's an article that talks about how our obsession with finding the perfect match.
So you know that obviously that phrase and that term, your perfect soulmate.
Yeah, your soulmate's a big one.
Exactly.
That there is one person out there for everybody.
What a load of bull.
I don't believe that.
I think there's definitely people out there who are suited for you.
Yes.
But it's not one person in the whole world.
No, you're hoping it's like five or ten.
Yeah, let's hope so.
But this article goes on to talk about how, yeah,
our obsession with this idea of finding that one perfect soulmate, the one perfect person for you.
Yeah.
Most of the time, it makes you end up with the wrong person.
How? or, you know, certain types of stereotypes or what the movies are telling you.
Okay.
Where they believe that if you're to end up with the right person,
you should be focusing more about what's on paper.
What do you mean what's on paper?
So, like, are they actually a good match for you?
In what way?
Because I would say that the feelings that you get,
those feelings that you're focusing on, that's the thing.
That's the spark. That's the thing feelings that you get, those feelings that you're focusing on, that's the thing. That's the spark.
That's the thing that makes you go, oh my God, this is the person I want to be in love
with for the rest of my life.
So what if you get that feeling and you get all those nice, you know, whatever, the chemistry
and the feelings or whatever, but then you're not compatible in any other way?
Well, then don't get married.
So they're the wrong person.
Do some time, but spend some time with them, right?
First.
Sorry, bless me.
No, but you know what I'm saying?
So maybe you can have that feeling with someone,
which I've had that before,
where you have that connection with someone
and that pull towards someone.
But then, unfortunately, on paper and in theory,
we're not compatible.
Yeah, or you were right at that moment when you met
and then you both grew into being different people.
God, you're such a romantic.
I just, yeah.
No, I'm not saying that the feeling isn't real,
but this article is saying that sometimes,
or I guess they're saying you should not just go by that.
I guess what I'm asking is what are the things you should go by?
Whether you're compatible with someone.
What makes you compatible?
I think making whether you're compatible with someone,
you have to have stuff in common.
Yeah.
Not everything.
Yeah.
But I think you have to like some of the same things.
Yeah.
Because, I mean, with my last relationship, if I think about it,
we probably didn't really like anything the same. Right, right, right, right, mean, with my last relationship, if I think about it, we probably didn't really
like anything the same.
Right, right, right, right, right, right.
So what you're saying is, is, uh, if I can sum you up correctly, I think what you're
saying is fight past the infatuation stage.
The lust.
The lust.
And then look at things logically and go, okay, I don't find you groundbreakingly sexy
anymore. You've done a couple farts in front of me. Or I don't find you groundbreakingly sexy anymore.
You've done a couple farts in front of me.
Or I don't find you interesting.
Do I like you for other reasons?
Exactly.
Is that what you're saying?
Exactly right.
Either that or buy a house together so then you're so financially tied together
that you can't leave each other anyway.
And it's too late.
Yeah, you've got a couple of kids.
It is too late.
Yeah, you're way too in debt to ever think about leaving that relationship.
Well, that's what this guy says.
That's what this author has written about.
It's called Why Will You Marry the Wrong Person?
Bit of a negative take on life, isn't it?
It is a little bit.
Almost as negative as the question you want to ask right now.
Yeah, we want to ask the question.
What was the question?
How did you know you were with the wrong person?
Yeah, what made you realise and go, oh, shit, I'm with the wrong person.
I've made a big mistake.
Maybe you didn't marry them.
Maybe it was just a long-term relationship.
Or maybe you did marry them.
Maybe you did marry them.
But what made you realise that you were with the wrong person?
Maybe it was a real trivial thing.
Like they put the toilet roll on the wrong way.
And you're like, God, I can't do this anymore.
You're not for me.
Yeah, or maybe you realise that they hate every TV show that you like
and you go, I don't want to do this for the rest of my life.
Yep.
Oh, $800 it is.
Or you can text us on 9696.
Bit of a grim question.
I'll be honest with us.
Yeah, be honest with us.
How do you realise you're with the wrong person?
Talking about this book, I think it's a book that talks about
why you're probably going to marry the wrong person.
It's an interesting take.
It's a happy read that is bound to fly off shelves.
It's absolutely going to fly off shelves.
God, imagine you come home
and your missus has got that book on the bedside
and you're like, what are you reading, babe?
She's like, nothing.
Why is your suitcase out?
No reason.
We're just discussing,
I guess, what were we saying?
They're saying that you shouldn't
base whether you should
be with someone forever
on attraction
and those first initial stages.
Yeah, now that I understand a little
bit more, I think that's right. There has to be a deeper
connection than just attraction. Exactly right. There has to be a deeper connection than just attraction. Exactly right.
There has to be a deeper connection than that.
So we've asked you this afternoon a bit of a brutal question on 0800DIALS.M.
When did you realise and what was it that made you realise you were with the wrong person?
You don't have to have been married to them.
Maybe it was just a long-term relationship.
If you're on the text machine, this is what we're looking for.
Someone texted through and said,
the reason I knew he was the wrong person to be with, he called me a mole on the text machine. This is what we're looking for. Someone texted through and said, the reason I knew he was the wrong person to be with,
he called me a mole on the honeymoon.
Yeah, that's a really good indicator.
Shame it was on the honeymoon and not on the way to the wedding.
This person texted through,
I knew I was with the wrong person
when I realised we had one massive thing in common.
We both like girls.
Ah.
Yep, that'll do it.
Yeah, that'll do it.
That'll do it.
And they say you should have things in common, but...
Not that one.
Not that one.
Not that one.
Yeah, there's so many...
Oh, you can make it work.
There's so many brutal ones on the text machine too.
Let's go and talk to Mia.
Hi, Mia.
Hi.
When did you realise you were with the wrong person?
When he decided that one woman wasn't enough for him
Oh, yep
That'll do it
So you don't have polygamy in common?
No
Did you consider getting yourself an extra boyfriend to live with the playing field?
Males, yep
You should have got six
And then it would have been like yeah
We're outnumbering you now
Mia were you guys married?
No
Good stuff
Danielle hi
When did you realise you were with the wrong person
When he decided
To sleep on a park bench in the middle of the city
Instead of paying for a bus ride home
That'll do it Were you dating Bear Grylls? to sleep on a park bench in the middle of the city instead of paying for a bus ride home.
Yeah, that'll do it.
Were you dating Bear Grylls?
No.
Were you married?
No, we were dating for about six months. And he was 27 years old at the time.
He just was terrible with money.
And instead of calling someone for a ride home,
he said, oh no, I'll just sleep on the park bench until tomorrow
when I need to go to work again.
And that resourceful kind of pragmatic behaviour
is not the thing you look for in a partner?
No.
I was like, if you can't get your money together,
then you're not really money.
Fair enough.
There's a few more good ones on the text machine.
Someone texted through and said,
I realised when he told me he hated coriander.
That's a genetic thing though.
It is, so he can't help that.
What about this one?
Someone said, I realised I was with the wrong person when I was more excited to go work at Field Days
than pick him up from the airport after he'd been away for three months.
Field Days is bloody good though.
It is a good time, isn't it?
You can get such a good deal on a new Hyundai.
It's a bloody ripping time.
Finally, Taylor, when did you realise you were with the
wrong person? For me,
it was when he would always choose games
over spending time together.
That seems to be quite a big problem
these days, isn't it? Where people are
on the gaming systems. I'd love
to know if there's any guy out there who
after their partner has left them
because they wouldn't get off the PlayStation,
they felt good about it.
They were like, finally, just me and you, Xbox.
Yeah.
Just what I've always wanted.
Taylor, what are we talking?
How much time would he spend?
Oh, honestly, all the time.
Anytime he was at home, I'd be literally just waiting for the game to end
and he'll go into another one and I'm like,
I thought we just said that we're going to spend some time, okay?
Would you ever try and entice him out of the game?
Oh, plenty.
And he would still choose the game?
Yeah.
What a moron.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
With marijuana likely to be legalised in New Zealand next year,
I've got a gift idea for you from Miley Cyrus.
Miley Cyrus does love to push the boundaries.
Have you ever done weed?
Yeah.
Smoked a bit of the gooch?
The gooch?
I mean the hooch.
The hoochie gooch.
You just call it the gooch?
We've all smoked a bit of the gooch, haven't we?
Nope.
Just me then.
I think you mean hooch.
I think I'm on it right now.
Do you mean hooch?
Even hooch?
I think hooch is alcohol.
I corrected myself and said hooch.
I think hooch is alcohol.
Nah, hoochie cooch.
Ellie, you ever smoked any gooch?
No.
Just toch.
That's what happens when you do drugs, kids.
Ben, you ever smoked any gooch?
What do you do?
Do you roll it up?
No, you just get down real low.
You get your nose in it.
You arse.
Oh, God. They're not legalising that next year. They should. You asked Oh god
They're not legalising that next year
They should
It's not illegal
It's not illegal
We should make it illegal
No why not
What's the girls called
The perineum
Smoking the perineum
Miley Cyrus bought Yeah, the perineum, I think. Smoking the perineum?
Miley Cyrus bought...
What's her girlfriend's name?
Gucci Gooch.
Caitlin.
They bought her ex-boyfriend Brody Jenner some weed for his birthday.
That's all I was trying to say.
Nice.
I've heard there's a really good other substance going around the labia.
That shit's potent too.
Yeah, look out.
Sorry.
There's no coming back from have you smoked the gooch.
I was in an accident.
It was a weed bouquet that they got him. was a thousand dollar Weed bouquet Oh that's awesome
It's all I was trying to
Don't say that's awesome
I mean that's naughty
Yeah
Big news
In the space world
Space news
Space news
Space news
I love those space sticks
What were they called? The spac space sticks. What were they called?
The Spaceman sticks?
Yeah, what were they called?
Kitty cigarettes.
Were they?
Are you talking about the same ones?
The white sticks with the red dot on the end
and you used to pretend you were smoking them?
Spaceman sticks?
No, I'm talking about the space food stick.
What's that?
And it was like food that the astronauts were meant to take up into the atmosphere.
Oh, no, I never had those.
Space sticks.
Space sticks.
Oh, maybe it was an Aussie thing.
Right.
Is it like a one-square-meal type thing?
Yeah.
Oh, right.
They actually tasted pretty bad, but it was, like, cool because it was, like...
Did you have Spaceman sticks in Australia?
Yeah, we called them fags.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which is very unpolitically correct.
For multiple reasons.
For multiple reasons.
They've taken the red dot off the end of them.
I know.
And now they're just white sticks.
Yeah.
I want to talk about something that I'm pretty excited about
and something that I would love to give a go in my lifetime.
Yeah.
There's news out today about the world's first space hotel.
Oh, okay.
This is cool.
They're saying it could accommodate up to 400 astro guests.
And unlike the ISS.
International Space Station.
That's correct.
The aim for this space hotel is to have artificial gravity running through the whole thing so that guests can walk around.
Why do you want that?
So guests can walk around the hotel completely normally.
Why do you want that?
Just go to a normal hotel if you want gravity.
If I go to a space hotel...
You're in the atmosphere, though.
Yeah, but if I go to a space hotel...
Yeah, but there'd be rooms like that you can go do that with.
Oh.
But you don't want to be like that the whole time you're up there.
I kind of think I do.
No, because then you can only stay for like a day or two.
Oh, okay.
Without training.
Also, it has issues with going to the toilet and stuff, right?
So there would be rooms for that.
You don't want your wee or your poo to float into mid-air.
Wouldn't be great.
Because they're saying for long term, it's way better.
Yeah, okay.
Because it would be very hard to do it otherwise.
So it'll be a 119-metre diameter wheel shape.
That's what they're looking at building.
Yeah.
Oh, like Halo.
Yeah, kind of, yeah.
And it will house
about 24 individual
pods with sleeping
accommodation inside all of those pods.
Cut to the nitty gritty. How much to go to the Space Hotel?
It hasn't said. It'll be
bloody expensive. And guess when they're planning
on doing it? When?
2025.
Oh, I thought you were going to say like 2050.
No, that's what I wanted to make you think.
And then when I come back with 2025, that's
not that far away. That's not too bad. Contiki Space.
They should launch that.
Imagine a whole lot of horny backpackers
floating around in space. And you're just trying to
get as much attention as you can, but you're
trying to float around.
That'll spice up your selfies. Okay, Space
Hotels. Hey, thanks for the space news.
