Today coming to you from outer space!
More like old school.
Wait.
Hold on.
Ba-ba-da-da!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba!
Greetings, Earthlings!
Now you might be asking,
how did they afford such expensive broadcast equipment
to come to you from outer space?
Ha ha.
It's actually just us sharing the same handy towel roll and pretending.
Where has that been?
Next time we do this joke, we should get a roll each.
Really splurge.
You know, that's been one of my big radio ideas I've had in my phone for a long time.
What's that?
Broadcast from outer space?
To do a radio show from zero gravity, so technically outer space.
How do we achieve it?
Well, I've actually done some research into it.
There's a place in America where we could do it.
Yeah.
How do they achieve zero gravity?
So you just go up into the atmosphere high enough to the point where yeah there is zero
gravity right but like i mean there's a difference to obviously going to the moon to going up so high
that you're in zero gravity but technically for me i'm dead keen that's out of space i'm just
gonna put my technical hat on for a second and i'd love our producers to join the conversation now
that's a great idea i'd love to broadcast from there.
I do remember that time we tried to
go 15 metres outside the studio
to broadcast from the Venute
and it cut out
for 50% of the show.
But I don't want that to let
you know, I don't want that to stop us
from making these things happen. Ben,
obviously you're not an engineer by trade
but can you, I mean you start looking into it now
of how we would broadcast from outer space?
That'd be a really long extension cord.
If the space, this shuttle that you're talking about
that goes up into this atmosphere,
if it has internet connection, baby, we're on.
Yeah, it'd have Wi-Fi.
There you go.
How do you know?
I don't think Wi-Fi's strong.
You'd want to plug in modem.
You'd want it hardwired.
We can't hardwire it.
We're coming from Earth's outer atmosphere.
I'm just telling you that that would be an easy option.
Haven't you heard Spark's new tagline?
What's that?
Oh, well, it's not going to be real.
No, it is.
It is.
Disclaimer, this is not real.
The service is so good, even the aliens use it.
That's what Spark are saying, aren't they?
Yeah, or it could be...
How every alien will be watching this year's Rugby World Cup live.
From outer space.
All right, we've got to go.
It's time for a moonwalk.
Fuck.
Oh, no.
You know, the hardest part of this show is the podcast intro.
Enjoy it, everybody. Do people even appreciate it?
Good day, everybody.
Happy Monday, Bree and Clint.
Well, good day, guys.
How was your weekend?
Mine, personally, was very good.
Was it?
Yeah, didn't leave the house once.
Oh, I don't mind a weekend like that every now and then.
How was your weekend?
It was good. I had a naked shower.
As opposed to a what?
Oh, sorry, I missed one word out. A naked outdoor shower.
Oh, right.
That makes more sense, doesn't it?
Yeah, I was like, mate, I had a naked
shower. In fact, I had one today. It was delightful.
Yeah, I was going to say, yeah. There's nothing to write home about.
I have naked showers every day. Where'd you have a
naked outdoor shower? In Ha'ei.
Oh, okay. Legally? Like, or did
you just get a hose in the town centre?
No, it was at a house. Right. Around the back.
Yeah. But then there was a lot of
properties around. Do you think
that the outdoor shower was made for naked showering
or was it one of those ones you're meant to shower off in your togs
after you come out of the surf?
I think the latter.
Right.
Hey, well, good for you.
You do you.
But they didn't specify, so technically can't get arrested.
If you saw Bree naked in Ha'hai over the weekend,
you can call us now on 0800DIALZM.
We're not doing that.
Or if you have photographic evidence, feel free to submit it.
No.
To ellie at zmonline.com.
No, no, no.
Hey, if you're just here for our money, we're cool with that.
You can win some off us today at 4.30.
Your chance to ride the KFC sushi train.
And if you do it correctly, you can win some good money today.
4.30 is when we're going to do that.
Yeah, good money up for grabs.
Also, how good science.
I love a bit of science.
I love a beaker and Bunsen burner.
Bunsen burner, yeah.
Yeah, Bunsen burner's good.
Litmus test.
You said something last week on this show, which I don't know whether I believe it.
Right.
And today we're going to science the hell out of it.
We're going to test it before four o'clock.
What did I say?
You said that a flake, a Cadbury flake, does not melt in the microwave.
Oh, no, this is scientifically sound.
No, I stand by this.
No, that's fine.
We can test that out.
Well, you and I are going to get our lab coats on.
We're going to put that to the test.
We might need a fire extinguisher, though.
I'll let you know that much.
Next though,
how much does it cost
to have a meet and greet
with Kylie Minogue,
not Jenna?
We'll give you that price after peak.
You leave Kylie Minogue alone.
She's an icon.
Bree and Clint, ZM.
I don't know where you roll your eyes.
ZM, Spree and Clint.
The podcast.
There's a lot of talk today
over in Australia
about this new TV show that's about to launch.
Okay.
It's called Crazy Rich Asians.
Yeah.
And it's off the back of that movie, Crazy Rich Asians.
Yeah.
But essentially, there's this guy who, I guess, works for these crazy rich Asians that live
in Australia.
I think a lot of them live in Sydney actually and they use this guy
to like plan parties.
Are they crazy and rich or are they crazy rich?
I think they're both.
Right, okay.
Yeah, I think they're crazy rich and they're also a little bit crazy
because if you see some of the things that this guy.
Are they Asian?
Yes.
All right.
If you see some of the things that this guy organises for them,
it's wild.
Like they shut down the Harbour Bridge to have a party on it
and like crazy stuff.
Like just they dropped 200K on a dinner party.
They're the sort of people that you want
My Super Sweet 16th reboot to be made about
because you know those kids are getting a G-Wagon for their birthday.
Yeah, for sure.
How sad was that show when the family wasn't
obviously as rich as some of the other families.
Oh, yeah. And a bit depressing.
I mean, amazing for any normal
family, like next level. Oh, no.
This poor kid got a second-hand Range Rover
for her 16. Exactly.
Sucks to be her. It would just look a bit
dodgy. I hate you, Mum and Dad.
I wish you were crazy rich Asians.
Anyway, one of the things that this guy does
Is that
He sometimes organises
Meet and greets
For these people
Yeah
Because they obviously have the money
And if they want these
Famous
You know
Super celebrities at their parties
Then they can pay for it
I saw this on Super Sweet 16th as well
One of the dads
Paid for Soulja Boy
To show up to a birthday party
Yeah they used to do that
On most episodes Yeah yeah yeah Yeah they used to do that on most episodes, I thought.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, they used to have a performance.
I don't know if these celebrities, oh, maybe they are doing a performance,
but it just says in this article that it's just a meet and greet.
Right.
And anyway, he's given the prices for a few celebrities.
Oh, I'm interested in those.
So the first celebrity he talked about was Lady Gaga.
Yeah.
And he said that her prices change all the time based on what she's doing.
So after a star is born, she was a lot more expensive.
Went up, yeah.
But when she wore that meat dress, probably a bit cheaper.
Yeah.
Because she's like, I'll show up.
I don't smell good, but I will show up.
She was pretty popular, I think, when she wore that meat dress.
It's more just a joke about how gross the meat dress is.
Mainly with dogs.
So she can range from hundreds of thousands to a million.
A million dollars for Lady Gaga to show up to your party.
Which, I mean, it's Lady Gaga.
I guess if you're a crazy rich Asian, though, the sky's the limit.
She is like, you know, worldwide fame.
Yeah.
And the next one he talked about was Kylie Minogue.
Well, he's gone straight from Lady Gaga to Kylie Minogue.
Which, I mean, Minogue you.
I mean, she's an icon.
Don't get me wrong.
I love her.
Yeah.
She hasn't released that much music lately.
No, for our younger listeners, she did this song.
Amongst others.
Amongst many others.
No disrespect to Kylie Minogue.
I love.
How much to get Kylie Minogue
to appear at your party?
God, I love Kylie Minogue.
Don't know if I would pay
$1.8 million though.
Oh, nah.
$1.8 million.
This is what it is. That's how much? No, this is
what it is. She's gone. I don't
want to go to that party. I don't want to
do the meet and greet. So you put out, this is a
classic technique. You put out a crazy
price and that way they probably
are not going to do it so you don't have to go but you don't look rude.
But if they do do it and they do take it
then at least you get $1.8 million.
If
if she counter offered, if I said, oh, what's her cheapest price,
can you come back to me?
Yeah.
You know, her coming to a party we were hosting.
Yeah.
And if she was like $1.8 million, I'd probably be like,
can you counter with she can eat some of the party-sorted rolls?
She eats for free and she can park in the driveway.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
I am the resident half Italian on this show
and when I see something with Italian food in the news,
I like to bring that information to the show.
And you know what?
We appreciate it.
And I think you guys will like this
because we all love pizza here at the show
and I'm excited about something like this, I think.
I don't know what you guys are going to say about it,
but there's a restaurant in America called Crave It,
who is taking pizza to the next level.
To the next level?
Literally to the next level.
They're putting things you would never put on a pizza
on top of a pizza. Now, we've had this discussion before about what belongs on a pizza on top of a pizza.
Now, we've had this discussion before about what belongs on a pizza and what doesn't.
So I'm interested to see if they heard our rules.
So the one that's getting a lot of media coverage is the cheeseburger pizza.
Talk to me about a cheeseburger pizza.
So the pizza is topped with French fries, fried eggs, and 16 cheeseburgers
before being finished off with a chipotle and bacon sauce.
Why has it got 16 cheeseburgers on it?
Is it one of those big American-sized pizzas?
It's pretty big.
Right, okay.
It's a pretty big pizza.
Not only are you having 16 cheeseburgers, you're also having a pizza.
Well, yeah, exactly right.
And you know when you can't decide between a cheeseburger or a pizza?
No, I've not been in that situation.
I'm in that situation many times.
Although Crave It do have a
point. There isn't a restaurant that caters to
both, is there? No, there's not.
There's no one who's cornered that market.
See, now that's an idea. We've taken some audio
from a story
talking about this cafe. Here's some of the other
pizzas that they have on offer.
The cheeseburger pizza is just one of the over-the-top dishes at Crave It.
This pizza has fried chicken and waffles with maple syrup.
There's one loaded with tater tots and black beans.
Or the mac and cheese with Cheetos on top.
Ashley Iosa, who works next door at a restaurant,
came over to Crave It for a slice with buffalo chicken and Doritos.
See, I just don't...
I don't...
Well, first of all, we said no to...
Nah, I'm keen.
Nah, no, no.
I'm keen to try it.
No, we said no to corn chips on a pizza.
As a team, we said no to corn chips on a pizza.
Because they're sharp.
They go in your throat and they get all stabby.
You can do twisties, though.
Twisties?
That's what, like, a Cheeto is.
Yeah, she said Doritos. Yeah, but there was, a Cheeto is. Yeah, she said Doritos.
Yeah, but there was also a Cheetos one.
Oh, no, yuck.
Look, I think they're great, and I would be keen to try those,
but I think you need to keep it authentic.
Mm-hmm.
Why not put lasagna on a pizza?
Why not put spaghetti bolognese on a pizza? Why not put a gnocchi on a pizza? Why not put spaghetti bolognese on a pizza?
Why not put a gnocchi
on a pizza?
I think we're onto something.
We should open that here.
Okay.
Why not put carbonara
on a pizza?
And you know what else
we need to serve?
What?
Cheeseburgers.
There you go.
There's our business.
Boom.
ZDM Spree and Clint.
The podcast.
From iHeartRadio.
This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Dean McCarthy, he's back from Columbia, yes?
I'm in New York for New York Fashion Week.
I'm swanning around New York City.
I've got to go to coffee.
I've got to go to chill.
So heaven.
Hey, Dean, do you own anything Balenciaga?
No.
I bought the cheap fake versions from Zara.
Can you tell Bree for me that those Crocs,
those Balenciaga platform Crocs are actually fashionable
and she should just wear them?
I don't think I can bring myself to that.
See, even Dean McCarthy.
Actually, if anyone knows fashion, it's Dean McCarthy.
Well, I thought so too, but now not anymore.
Speaking of fashion, is J-Lo still wearing fur?
That's what we want to know first.
J-Lo is still wearing fur.
And today, actually it might have been last night,
she got slammed at the world premiere of Hustlers,
her new movie that's coming out, by the way.
It looked awesome.
There she was.
It was at the Toronto Film Festival, right?
They launched Hustlers. All the stars were there.
J-Lo on the red carpet gets
slammed, screamed at, yelled
at, abused by animal
rights activists, screaming, stop wearing
fur, J-Lo, stop wearing fur.
They didn't have, they weren't Scottish.
They didn't tell them like that, but they were screaming at
her. I don't know what accent they were in. Wait a minute.
So she is open about wearing
real fur?
Yes, very open about it. And she
even, I think in the promo of one of the
of that movie, she's wearing a big fur thing.
Yeah, she is open about it.
Lady Gaga is open about it. I don't think the
Kardashians, any of them are open about it anymore.
But yeah, definitely. I don't get it.
I don't get it. And 2019 when... Why not just wear the
fake fur? Yeah, the fake stuff looks just as
good. What's the thrill that you get from wearing some dead carcass on you? I don't get it. I just don't get it. Why not just wear the fake thing? Yeah, the fake stuff looks just as good. What's the thrill that you get from wearing some dead carcass on you?
I don't get it.
I just don't get it.
I don't get it either.
Also, over the weekend, Nicki Minaj announced that she's retiring.
She did.
She went to Twitter to say this.
She said that she is retiring and that she's going to start a family,
focus on a family.
Actually, first of all, we're all like, wow, she's only 36.
She's got a phenomenal
career and her career is certainly not over.
But then the tweet is now missing.
So I don't know, maybe she was in a mood.
Maybe it was just a, maybe it's a publicity.
Maybe her next album is called Family or something.
I don't really know.
Funny, actually funny, funny story today I found out.
Do you remember when she had the fight with Cardi B at New York Fashion Week?
Yes.
And the shoe got thrown?
Yes.
They're trying to find the shoe.
What do you mean?
There is an investigation
because they want to find the shoe
and auction the shoe.
Ah.
Because I'm here for Fashion Week
and everyone's talking about, like,
you know, who's the last person to see the shoe?
Is the shoe part of a police investigation?
Have they sold?
Whatever happens,
we're going to find the shoe.
It's going to be on eBay.
That is such a good witch hunt. The shoe-y Hollywood story. I tell you what, it're going to find the shoe. It's going to be on eBay. That is such a good witch hunt.
The shoe-y Hollywood story.
I tell you what, it wouldn't hurt if the shoe thrown was a Balenciaga crock.
That would have bounced right off.
That's Dean McCarthy live from New York Fashion Week this week.
Thanks, Dean.
Bye, guys.
The latest is brought to you by Amplify Kombucha.
Taste amplified.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
Time for a science investigation.
You said something in the studio last week,
and I didn't believe you.
It was about a flake.
Mm, Cadbury flake.
And...
Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate. I do love a flake. Yeah. I will say. You said this about a flake. Mmm, Cadbury flake. And... Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate.
I do love a flake.
Yeah.
I will say.
You said this about the flake.
Do you know that flakes won't melt in the microwave?
You can microwave it for 10 minutes and it won't melt.
Are you sure?
I've done it.
Now...
You're saying that if we put a flake, a Cadbury chocolate flake,
in the microwave, very, very vulnerable to heat, chocolate is,
it will not melt.
It won't melt.
It won't melt.
I stand by it.
I stand by my statement.
It will not melt.
10 minutes, I was maybe exaggerating,
because what it will do is it will catch fire
before it will melt.
Well, we're not going to do 10 minutes.
No.
But I'm not going to be impressed unless it's over a minute.
Okay, you can put it in for a minute.
Why have we got the Terminator in here?
So I've got producer Ellie in studio to conduct the experiment.
She's got her safety goggles on.
She's brought us a microwave and a flake.
She's also wearing some, yeah,
Willy Widoa safety goggles and a high-vis vest.
Right.
You look very safe. So what we're going to do, obviously you're going to unwrap the flake. Oh, yeah, Willy Wairua safety goggles and a high-vis vest. Right. You look very safe.
So what we're going to do,
obviously you're going to unwrap the flake.
Oh, yeah, you've got to unwrap it.
Yeah, you don't want to put that
because it'll definitely catch fire.
For those who are taking scientific notes,
I've chosen standard flake, not luxury flake.
I think you should only do half of it
and I'll hold the other half.
Oh, will you now, Brian?
No, no, whole flake.
Oh.
Okay.
If we're doing this,
if we're maintaining scientific integrity. I don't care about integrity. Now, no, whole flake. Whole flake, okay. If we're maintaining scientific integrity...
I don't care about integrity.
Now, are we saying a minute?
A minute. Okay, Ellie, pop that microwave
open. Got the microwave in
studio. And put it straight in.
This is nice and convenient, actually, having this
microwave in here. Can we leave it in here?
Yeah, like a little kitchenette. Yeah.
Okay, and you get it underway.
Alright, microwave is on. So for safety's sake... Don't Yeah. Okay, and you get it underway. All right. Cool.
All right, microwave is on.
So for safety's sake.
Don't stare near it.
You'll get... We also have a fire extinguisher in studio.
Because like I said...
I've always wanted to use a fire extinguisher.
Have you never used one?
No.
Oh, my God.
Have you?
Yeah.
I've always...
What happened?
Something exploded.
Is there a noise?
Monitor the microwave, please. Yeah, you're meant to be happened? Something exploded. Something's made a noise? Monitor the microwave, please.
You're meant to be watching, safety officer.
That's my job.
She's so distracted.
I can't really see through my glasses.
Don't give anything away.
But if it catches fire, you need to stop the microwave, okay?
Nah, let it go, I say.
No, no.
We're not having the sprinklers go off.
That's why we've got sprinklers.
It's just doing that thing where the plate's not on.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Why would they put sprinklers in this room unless we were to use them?
You know, that's a great point, Bree.
I've always wanted to see them go off as well.
How long have we got on that timer there, Ellie?
Five seconds.
Five seconds.
Five seconds.
All right.
Oh, here we go.
The results.
Bring her up.
Ladies and gentlemen, after 60 seconds in the microwave,
our Cadbury flake has...
Not melted.
Not melted at all.
What is that alien piece of food?
What?
It looks the same.
Yeah.
It's exactly the same. It's a little bit soft,
but it's not melted. I should inspect that
if you want to bring it over here.
Told you. Told you.
Why?
Because it's dehydrated chocolate, so there's no liquid
in it for the particles to start moving,
for it to dissolve. Whoa!
It's petrified chocolate.
It's petrified chocolate. It's
petrified that you're going to eat it.
Zidim Spree and Clint, the podcast.
Had a weekend away with
some mates over the weekend
and one of the conversations
that got brought up was
I don't even know how we got onto this
but one of the girls there
was talking about her and her siblings
and we got onto birthdays and then I started asking
when her siblings had their birthdays and then I realised
that all of her siblings are born within a month of each other.
Right, okay.
And I was kind of like, that's a bit unusual.
How many siblings are we talking?
Four.
So five people all together?
No, four.
Four all together, yeah. Yeah, so people all together? No, four. Four all together.
Yeah, so four all together within a month of each other.
And I was like, my mind went straight to obviously what has happened nine months earlier
or what is happening around that time nine months earlier.
For her parents specifically?
Yeah, for her parents.
Yeah.
I mean,
some people are like real creatures of habit and maybe they've
just decided that's the week
every year where they, you know.
You know?
Maybe it's an anniversary. Maybe
it's a birthday. But
I
then started thinking about
my family.
And look, I'm not born near my brother or my sister,
but my brother and sister are quite close together.
Okay.
What time of year are they?
Around end of May, June.
So nine months prior to that is?
Is what?
September-ish.
What happens then?
Apple harvest?
I think it's end of the season, actually.
End of the season.
Your dad comes in.
I've picked the last apple.
Oh, shit.
Part of me wants to call my mum and ask her.
Yeah.
Well, I know she's been to the dentist today, remember?
Yeah, but that might make this even funnier.
We can call her and ask her.
Maybe we'll call her next.
But what about you?
Because you've got quite a lot of siblings.
Me and my siblings are perfectly spaced apart.
So my brothers and I are all, I think, two years, four months apart.
It's even my brother and sister who are born two days apart in separate years.
So you know what that means.
What's that?
Your parents are always randy.
They're year-round kind of people.
Maybe.
I like consistency.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It'd be interesting to know if you do know what the trend is for your parents.
Like, have you traced it back?
Are you one of three, four, five children in the family
and you've all sat down together and gone,
why are our birthdays so close together?
Let's work this thing backwards.
So people on the text machine are already texting through on this.
Someone said, my sister and I are New Year's babies for sure.
We're both born in September.
Oh, right, yeah.
Also better.
New Year's and like you said, Christmas.
Exactly.
Christmas as well.
Yep, could be Christmas babies.
Things aren't exact.
Yep.
But I want to ask this afternoon.
Yeah, Producer Ellie.
I was just going to come pipe in here.
Do you know that the most common birthday in the world
is the 30th of September?
Because of New Year's?
Yes.
Exactly nine months after.
You know it.
New Year's resolutions.
Yes, exactly right.
Might as well start a little early.
That's interesting.
I want to know from people on 0800 Dial ZM this afternoon,
are you and your siblings all born around the same time?
Yep.
Or maybe there's a date that coincides with your birthday
nine months earlier.
Yeah.
Maybe you have a reason already.
Maybe you've already done the math and you could give it to us.
I want to know the reason.
Or maybe you can give it to us and we'll help you try
and figure it out.
Either or.
Okay.
Call now.
0800 dial ZM.
People are already texting.
You can do that too.
9696. Bree and Clint. 0800 dial ZM. People are already texting. You can do that too. 9696.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
From your birthday, I guess you can figure out nine months earlier,
what were your parents doing?
It was a special occasion.
Yeah, what was the occasion?
You asked for siblings where there's a recurring birthday time in the family
to see if there's a trend.
We don't have that, but we have just gone nine months back in our own timeline.
I can't believe I've never done this before with my birthday.
So I'll just look back at mine.
Nine months before the 1st of February.
My mum's birthday.
That makes sense.
Happy birthday to you.
That's the best birthday present, can I say?
Me?
No.
Oh, the act of creating me.
Yeah.
Right, right, right, right. I mean, you're great too, but I'm just saying.
Nine months on you?
So I was born in January and then to go back.
It's around April, which I know for a fact my parents were married.
Oh, wedding anniversary.
Yep.
Wait, wedding anniversary or wedding night?
Wedding anniversary.
Right, okay.
That'd be special if it was the...
I know.
I've got an older sister, thank you.
Let's go to Michaela.
Hi, Michaela.
Hi, Michaela.
Hello.
Are you and your siblings all... Are you loving this topic, Michaela. Hi, Michaela. Hi, Michaela. Hello. Are you and your siblings all
born? Are you loving this topic, Michaela? I'm loving this. I love that we've made everyone
think about their parents doing it. When were your siblings all born around the same time?
So I was the odd one out. I'm definitely a Valentine's baby. Yeah. But my siblings were all born in February.
Okay.
And have you done the math on that?
I have. But the problem with the math is that my parents weren't together when my
eldest sibling was born.
Sorry.
They weren't married.
Right.
I was going to say, I was like, okay, so how does that work?
So you've worked out that you think your parents might have got married
because they got pregnant with your sister?
Is that what we're saying? My eldest brother. So you've worked out that you think your parents might have got married because they got pregnant with your sister?
Is that what we're saying?
My eldest brother.
He was born about six months before my parents got married.
Oh, he's a bastard child.
Oh, well, all's well that ends well, I guess.
Let's go and talk to Jamie.
Hey, Jamie.
Hi, Jamie.
Kia ora. Now, you are
a dad with children who are born
close together, is that right? Oh, I like this. So now we can
actually know for sure.
How many kids? I've got
two. And how close together?
My daughter was born April
the 3rd and my son was born April the 10th.
Alright. Well done. Jamie,
there's definitely something happening nine
months earlier. What was it?
I have no idea.
Just luck of the draw.
Wait, what is nine months prior to April?
Yeah, let's see if we can figure it out.
No, I haven't figured it out, actually.
I've been a bit lazy on that side, sorry.
No, that's all right.
We'll try and figure it out for you.
When's your wedding anniversary?
I'm not married, but me and my partner have been together
since July 24th, the day after my birthday.
Perfect.
So that's your anniversary, July.
1st of July.
That's nine months prior.
Is it actually?
Yeah, that's nine months prior.
We're figuring it out.
No way.
I love that you don't even remember.
How wild is that?
Like it made your kids, but you don't even remember.
Last one's Jo.
Hi, Jo.
Hi, how are you going?
Good, thanks.
Are your siblings all born around the same time?
Oh, it was actually my dad.
So my dad was born on the 5th of October.
Okay.
And a year before that, his brother was born on the 5th of October.
Whoa.
And then when we were at my dad's funeral
we found out that there was actually a sister
who was also born another year apart
also on the 5th of October. No.
No way. No way.
And the standing joke in our house is always that Nana
only ever put out once a year. And that was on
New Year's, nine months prior to that was
the 5th of January, which is close enough to
New Year's. How good is that?
Go Nana. Happy New Year.
Oh, she's got on the trip.
I'm glad we didn't quite hear that last bit, Jo, I think.
Yeah, I think that wasn't radio suitable.
ZM's Bree and Clint, the podcast.
Bree and Clint's KFC Sushi Train.
This is cool.
In a world first, KFC is partnering with Q Pie Mayonnaise
and is releasing a limited edition teriyaki double down.
Available from KFC's nationwide from Tuesday the 17th of September.
And to celebrate, we've got your chance to win cash every afternoon
from the KFC Sushi Train.
God, I love a double down.
Don't even get me started.
The lucky person who is going to ride the KFC Sushi Train today is you, Zoe.
Hey, Zoe.
Hello.
Need some cash?
Yes.
Perfect.
This is the game for you then.
Nice and simple.
We're going to start the Sushi Train off.
You're going to hear the dollar amounts go up and up and up and up.
As it collects plates, right?
Yeah, that's exactly right.
You choose when to stop it, and wherever you stop it, that's how much money you win.
The only thing is, you need to stop it before it reaches the end and all the plates crash, okay?
All right.
If it crashes, you win nothing.
So you don't want to go too long.
Okay.
I'm a bit nervous.
Yeah, I know.
I would be too.
No, you'll be fine.
You'll be fine.
You got this.
Just stop nice and loud when you're ready.
Here you go.
$25. $25.
$50.
$75.
$120.
$150.
$160.
$185. $200. Stop. $185.
$200.
Stop.
Stop. Oh!
Well done.
Congratulations.
So...
Do we get to see how long it would have went?
Yeah, okay.
Two things.
Let's find out how much you were up for winning.
The $200 is yours.
Congrats.
You could have won...
$210.
$250.
Oh.
Pretty good.
$250 was it.
Nice work.
Oh, that was a bit.
Zoe, this is where it gets interesting, okay?
Oh, that's right.
I forgot about this part.
Zoe.
The $200 is yours.
Yeah.
You now have the opportunity to walk away with that
and we'll put it in your bank account.
Or you can choose to risk it with a double down.
If you choose double down, we will play this thing here
and you could get $400.
It's 50-50.
Or you could get absolutely nothing.
Do you want to risk it all
to double it?
I'm not sure.
We're going to need you
to decide pretty quickly, Zoe.
She's really not sure.
It sounds like you want
to keep it, right?
You want to take it home?
You want to keep it?
Yeah.
Yeah, congratulations.
Okay, well done.
$200, all yours.
Thank you.
The Teriyaki Double Down is a limited edition from KFC.
Plus, you can join Bree and I at KFC Fort Street on Monday,
the 16th of September for a Sushi Train dining experience.
Just go and register at ZM online for that.
So keen for that.
That's going to be awesome.
We're going to play the Sushi Train all week this week, thanks to KFC. Bree and Clint, the podcast. ZM online for that. So keen for that. That's going to be awesome. We're going to play the Sushi Train all week this week,
thanks to KFC.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
Over the weekend, spent some time with some mates,
and one of the things my mate Dan said to me,
I guess my ears perked up a little bit,
because it's not something you hear every day.
Right.
And I believe the sentence went something like this.
Oh, yeah, me and my partner, we've hired a pet psychic to help us with the behavioural
issues of our dog.
I see.
And I was like, pardon me?
Pet psychic?
And he's like, yeah, she's a really well-known pet psychic in Hamilton.
Right.
That is a bizarre sentence.
It is.
For multiple reasons.
And I mean, obviously the show Lunatics, that's got Chris Lilley on it.
And if you've watched it, if you haven't, you need to.
He plays a pet psychic on that show.
That's the South African lady, right?
Yana.
Who's in love with her assistant.
Yana.
Looking for a advuk.
Yeah.
Anyway, so I kind of was like, I'm interested. lady, right? Yana. Who's in love with her assistant. Yana. Looking for a advuk. Yeah, anyway,
so, I kind of was
like, I'm interested. So is he serious?
He's serious.
And apparently she is booked out for
months. Months
and months. You cannot get in to see this
woman. She's a well-known pet psychic
from the Hamilton region. Hamilton's leading pet psychic.
She is the leading pet psychic
in Hamilton, apparently.
I've done a little bit of Googling and I don't know if this is her,
but I found a pet psychic on the internet.
Yeah.
And I've just looked into what this particular pet psychic deals with.
Sure.
And she said she can deal with stuff like missing pets
who have been with the family a long time. So maybe your pet has
passed away and you're missing that pet. Okay. So you'd like to talk to them on the other side.
Yeah. Is that what it means by missing pet? Doesn't mean like pets that
ran away. No, you're missing your pets. Oh, if you're missing it. Yeah. Right, yeah. Does she do missing
pets? She does have a lost pet which needs to be located.
Cool. Yeah, that's a handy thing to Hamilton.
Hamilton's leading.
My mum recently has lost our family dog.
Yeah.
And she said to me the other day, and this is so heartbreaking,
she's like, even if a family has found him, she's like,
I don't care if they want to keep him.
I just want to know that he's okay.
Oh, that's heartbreaking.
So he's been missing for nearly a month now.
Yeah.
Anyway, there's so much stuff.
She's like, are you wondering if your pet is your soulmate?
What do you mean?
Do you want to marry your pet type thing?
No, not marry your pet, but if they're your soulmate.
There's also people whose pets died quickly
and weren't able to say goodbye properly.
She can deal with that.
I've just connected with your dog.
And yes, he does have a message for you.
It's...
Ruff!
Ruff, ruff, ruff, ruff.
So does that mean she can talk to animals too?
I don't know.
I don't know anything about a pet psychic.
I have seen before someone who performs cat reiki.
Oh, yes, I've seen that. I saw Art and Matilda on their Instagram
they were having some indoor urination issues
with one of their cats. And they got Reiki
on it. Yeah, they got a lady around to do animal
Reiki. She put like crystals on the cat
to try and channel its energy into different places.
Did it work? Nah, the cat had a bladder infection.
Wait, did they have
one of those what's-her-name gardens?
A bonsai garden? What are those?
Oh, the little sand, the little...
Yeah, what are those called? I don't know.
I think you think of a... Will you rake it? I think you think of
a rake. That's different to rakey.
No, no, no. Those little gardens that have
sand in them and you're meant to rake them.
Yeah. And it like brings in good energy.
But it also looks like a cat litter box.
Yeah. So cats probably would
wait in it. Yeah, that wouldn't be that good.
Anyway, I don't mean to conflate animal psychics
with animal Reiki specialists.
I know they're different things.
They're very different professions, Clint.
I want to track this woman down.
Hamilton's leading pet psychic.
If she's the best in Hamilton in terms of pet psychics,
then I want her on the show. Yeah, we'll get her.
If she's the best, we'll pay for her. Yeah.
If you know who we're talking about, if
you're listening in your car and you're like, oh yes,
she came over and she did some
readings on my dog.
Yeah, any leads would be appreciated.
Yeah, 9696,
that would be great. We'll get her
on the show and we'll delve
into the world of pet psychics.
Bree and Clint, covering off all your spiritual needs this afternoon.
Oh, by the way, on the text machine, it's called the Zen Garden.
There you go.
That's what we're looking for.
ZM's Bree and Clint, the podcast.
Trash.
All treasure.
This is the game where we get old vintage items
and we get you to try and guess how much they're worth by a wee.
I mean, we make producer Ben trawl through hours of Antiques Roadshow
and porn stars.
You said you love those shows, mate.
Yeah.
You learn lots.
Did I say that?
No, you didn't say that, but I assume that you really liked those shows.
It's just one of those passions of mine that I love sitting here at a computer
every Monday morning for two hours and getting this.
When I look at your moustache,
I think Antec's Roadshow.
Exactly.
And he's done it again,
so we have three more items today
playing for some free mobile fuel is Shaylee.
Hi, Shaylee.
Hi, Shaylee.
Hi.
Now, you need to get two out of three correct,
and if you do, you'll win.
If you don't, Kelly will win your money
for doing absolutely nothing.
Alright, have you heard
the game before, Shaylee?
No. Okay, this is how it works.
We're going to play you some
audio of them talking about an item
and you just have to tell us whether
you think it's worth under five
grand being trash or
over five grand being treasure.
Here you go. Here's your first item.
This is Madonna's personal daily planner and phone book from 1988
filled with unbelievable phone numbers, dates,
all completely handwritten by Madonna.
This is something I purchased at a very reputable auction house.
That is so cool.
So it's Madonna's daily planner and phone book from 1988.
Is that trash or treasure?
Um, treasure, actually.
I'll go with treasure.
All right, locking in treasure.
Let's go to the audio.
Conservatively, I'd say $10,000 to $12,000 range,
right in that bumper.
Oh, damn.
Well done, Shaylee.
Nice work.
That's one to you.
You've got one.
Here comes item number two.
Since 1955.
Yes.
It is an old McDonald's bag.
How old is it?
1955.
The year that McDonald's launched in America
and the first McDonald's store opened in San Bernardino.
What?
Wait, are we just using audio from our own show now?
Yeah.
I thought it was a good idea, actually,
if I'm being that honest.
You're not even going on to TV shows.
We've asked you to do it.
No, I went to radio shows.
Old radio shows from back in the day.
This is new levels of incompetence
from a just a kid.
You didn't even have to look for that.
He was here.
Yeah, that's how handy it was.
Shaylee, we're going to go with it anyway.
It's an original McDonald's bag
from the original McDonald's.
Is that trash or treasure?
I'm going to have to go with trash.
All right, locking in trash.
Bit like that piece of audio from Producer Ben.
Let's go to the audio.
$455 is the current bid.
What?
Well done.
You got it correct.
Nice work.
It actually ended up selling for $964.
That'll do it, Shaylee. You've got two out of three correct already
So we don't even need to go to the last one
You win some free mobile fuel
Yay
Nice work, Shaylee
We should go to the last one
Because, I mean, producer Ben wants to find new ones every week
If we don't, it means he's one ahead for next week
Do we?
Nah, give him a break
He used one from the show.
He should be punished.
Give him a break.
Congrats, Shaylee.
Well done.
Nice work, Shaylee.
You win this round, producer Ben.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.
ZM.
I mean, in 2019, I looked at this graph the other day, actually,
and it was showing how people were meeting their love matches in 2019.
Yeah.
And it was a graph from, you know, back in the 80s to now.
And the most common is online.
Yeah, I would have thought so.
By far.
That is by far the most common.
Online counts apps as well, right?
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah, so Tinder, Bumble, the whole lot.
That's the most common way anyone these days is meeting someone.
What was the most common way back in the 1980s?
I think it was through friends.
Oh, yeah.
It was pretty common.
Yeah.
And I can't remember now.
But yeah, through friends was pretty common.
Anyway, a little while ago we were talking about,
and this was big a few years ago and it's kind of died down a little bit, but the idea of having a party where you don't get to see the person,
you don't get to talk to the person,
all you get to do is smell their pheromones.
That was a deep smell, wasn't it?
It was a big sniff.
And by that I mean you walk into a room
and you sniff a bunch of different T-shirts
and you base who you like off the smell of those T-shirts.
So there's apparently some science behind this whole pheromone party thing
and we're going to dig into that a little bit later on.
But on the face of it, you're trying to get someone's raw scent, right?
You're trying to find out what it is about them that makes them them
and come at it from a real sort of animalistic side of things.
Because they reckon that you actually do kind of connect
through someone's personal scent.
And we're not talking about aftershaves or perfumes
or any of that stuff that kind of clouds that.
We're talking about laying in a bed three nights in a row in the same T-shirt with no deodorant on.
And then you bring that shirt to the party.
Then you give us that shirt.
And then we get strangers to sniff it and they go, I like that one.
Yeah, I like number 12.
This is an idea that we're actually going to do.
We're actually going to have one of these parties.
Yeah, we're going to hold the first ever ZM pheromone party.
And look, it's all being put together at the moment.
But you out there, if you're single, and like I said, if you have an open mind,
there's going to be an opportunity for you to do some pheromone dating.
Which, I mean, you know what?
What a cool story to tell your grandkids.
How did you and Grandpa meet?
Sniffed him.
Sniffed him and I knew from the first sniff.
Also, what a great compliment if you do get a match out of this.
Like, what does it say about you as a person
if someone is attracted to you just by the way your body naturally smells?
And a good wake-up call if no one is.
For the record, we're doing T-shirts and not undies.
It's not that kind of pheromone party.
No, that's gross.
Although you would get some strong pheromones,
especially if you wore them for three nights in a row.
Yeah, they would be very pungent.
I feel like that would attract a different kind of clientele
to our pheromone party.
No, T-shirts at the pheromone party.
We're thinking about doing it in two weeks' time.
Yeah, but we're still learning about how this whole thing works.
So we thought this afternoon, can you shed some light on it for us?
Have you been to one of these?
Have you ever been to a pheromone party before?
Yeah, maybe you have.
Maybe, you know, it was something you did with your girlfriends.
Instead of speed dating, you went to a pheromone party.
Maybe you found your partner at a pheromone party.
Or maybe you just know a hell of a lot about pheromones
and you believe in the process of pheromone dating.
If you do, we're looking for some intel at the moment.
We're looking for people to call us.
Have you been and what was it like?
0800 dial ZM or you can text us to 9696
as we get all the info together for our first ever pheromone party.
I'd love to see people on the text machine as well if there's any interest.
Would you want to come to ours?
9696.
ZDM Spree in Clint, the podcast.
So we've had this idea that we want to throw what's called a pheromone party.
Yeah.
Which essentially is where you rock up, all the singles rock up,
and you put a shirt into a bag that you've worn for three nights in a row
and then one by one each person goes into the room with a card
and they sniff the shirts and they mark down which ones they like the best.
We will then play Cupid and introduce you to your match.
So all the ice breaking is done
and you've got to remember that you both chose each other.
So there's something there that you guys don't know about.
There's some form of attraction inside the way you smell
and that's what we want to use to try and pair you up.
And I love that it takes looks out of it.
It takes looks out of it.
It takes social status out of it.
It takes what you're wearing out of it.
Because sometimes you're your own worst enemy
because maybe the perfect person isn't your stereotypical,
you know, perfect type in terms of looks.
It takes all the current, like, dating currency out of it.
It takes banter out of the equation.
Oh, well, see, that's a big one for me.
For an introduction, it does, at least.
Yeah.
And maybe you'll persevere.
You'll go, oh, their chat's a bit shit, but I love the way they smell.
They do smell.
I'm going to just stick with this for a little bit longer.
Have you ever got that compliment?
What, that I smell good?
I got it this morning, actually.
No, but not based on aftershave.
Oh, then not.
I've got, I've got.
You need a shower.
You need to have a shower.
Yeah, I get that quite a bit.
You, now I know why you asked the question.
You've been told that you have a nice smell before, haven't you?
But I did say to you, I think it's from the shampoo that I was using. Right, okay, okay, okay.
I think that's what it was from, but I have been told a few times that I have a really
nice scent. We don't know a hell of a lot about the pheromone party, but we're going to hold
one soon, so we're asking you. Have you been to one? Do you know much about pheromones?
Alice is on the phone. Now, Alice, you actually teach some information about pheromones
to your biology classes.
Yeah, definitely.
So what do you actually tell them, Alice?
I show them, first of all, this great video by Robert Winston,
who is this amazing scientist with a huge mustache,
who's probably the OG t-shirt sniffer out there.
Yeah.
He did an experiment where he did the same thing.
He got women to sleep in t-shirtsshirts and they tested the genes that they have.
He was way more attracted to
the females who had different copies
of immunity genes than he did.
So they think that's
probably because if you have different genes
to the person you make a baby with,
your baby's going to be immune to more things and your
baby's more likely to live and survive and be
strong. How sexy is science?
So there's like an evolutionary element to it as well.
Like there's something inside it where your body is going,
this will make some strong kids, baby.
Sniff this person out.
Your actual perfect match.
That's fascinating.
Thank you, Alice.
Billy is less scientific.
You just know what you like when it comes to scent.
Is that right?
That's exactly right, mate.
I wouldn't say I've based all my exes off of smell,
but it's certainly a strong point for me.
So wait a second, Billy.
Do you go up to someone and you're like, just have a sniff?
Or like how do you?
Do you know on a first date where you ask them a question,
you're like, can I have a sniff?
No, if I get a whiff and I think they smell nice,
I'm not going to say I've pursued them, but I'd be quite interested, I'd say.
So there's an interesting word you use.
All of my exes were based off smell.
So you either got it wrong or their scent has changed
and you've gone, sorry, Billy's got to get rid of you.
Yeah, well, it's usually after about the three-week mark
because, you know, that's when you start doing the fun stuff.
So, yeah, maybe that's what it is.
Billy!
What?
Billy! No, no, no. Are you yeah, maybe that's what it is. Billy! What? Billy!
No, no, no.
Are you single?
Yeah, I am, yes.
Are you interested in coming to our pheromone party?
Absolutely.
Okay, cool.
You wait there.
We'll get you some details.
If Billy sounds like your cup of tea, you'll definitely be in.
Alison is here as well.
Hi, Alison.
Hi, Alison.
Hi, how are you?
I heard you're keen for our party.
I sure am.
Why would this be something that would be up your alley, Alison?
Okay, I had, I was in an industry, you could say, and I sold pheromone sprays.
So I went to a sexpo in Australia and I thought, okay, you know, we tried them.
And I put some on and went downstairs and thought, oh, you know, we tried them and I put some on
and went downstairs and thought, oh, bollocks, this isn't going to work.
Yeah, I got a bit more attention than I thought I normally would have.
Oh my God.
But you were wearing other people's pheromones, is that right?
Yeah, so I was wearing the woman one to attract men,
and you can also get the men ones to attract women.
So I've been telling some single men out there that I know.
But, yeah, so I've used those.
Yeah. So I'm really intrigued to try this natural one.
Alison, what about when the next day you get up and you have a shower
and the guy comes out and he's like, I've been catfished.
You don't smell like that at all.
I'll be saying too late, buddy.
Too late.
Too late.
I've got what I wanted.
Alison is on her way.
This is going to be fascinating.
Stand by for more details on our upcoming pheromone party.
Bree and Clint, the podcast.

It's such a big birthday.
This is such a date-based game, and we never actually think about what date it is today.

That's the winner of Birthday Banger today.
George Michael and Faith.
It is Anna's 30th birthday.
She chose Natasha's mum's birthday banger.
That's how it went. That's how it went.
That's how it went.
It's good too.
It's good.
I enjoyed that.
That's such a big birthday too.
Sucks to have your 30th on a Monday.
Why?
You go hard on the Sunday.
Yeah, true, I guess.
And then you call in sick on the Monday.
Yeah, because it's your birthday.
Exactly.
All right, maybe it doesn't suck.
ZM Spree and Clint, the podcast.
I want you to think about how much it costs
where you go for just for one beer, okay?
Just one beer.
What are we talking?
Pint, schooner, pot.
Pint.
Pint.
Pint, yeah.
No, we don't have schooners in New Zealand.
Do you have pots?
I think they call that a 12 ounce here. Yeah. And you don't have schooners in New Zealand. Do you have pots? I think they call that a 12-ounce here.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
And you don't have schooners?
No.
And can I say, I think a schooner is the perfect size serving of beer.
It is.
It's in the middle.
Because a pint, a little bit too much.
Like you go back to work after a pint and you'll be like, ugh.
Like Goldilocks, she would down a schooner.
And then a pot, not quite enough.
But a schooner, the perfect amount of beer.
Yep.
Listen up, pubs in New Zealand.
Get some schooners in you.
We want you to think about how much you pay.
So depending on where you are, I mean,
you can pay up to 20 bucks for a pint in some fancy Auckland bar.
Where?
In the, in the, in the, I don't want to say.
Yeah, probably a good idea.
Yeah, you can.
You shouldn't, but you can.
But then you go to some RSAs and some rugby clubs
and you can still get away with $5.50 for a handle.
I love an RSA.
An Australian man who is in England at the moment
covering the Ashes, which is the cricket series,
has paid $107,000 for one beer.
Now, when I first read this story, I thought, well, that's ridiculous.
It's ridiculous.
And when I read further into the story, it was an accident, wasn't it?
Yeah.
So he's gone up to pay for his beer, which is meant to be £5.50.
So it's about, what, $12?
About $12-ish.
Yeah, you kind of double it as a rule of thumb.
The bar staff, who I'm sure were run off their feet,
put it through as £55,000.
That is a little different.
That converts to about £100,000.
And the only reason he knew, because he went bib, bib, bib, bib, off to his $100,000. And the only reason he knew,
because he went off to his table with his beer,
the only reason he knew is because his wife called him and said,
hey, how come there's $100,000 missing from our account
and it says it's been spent at the pub?
Also, we've been charged a $2,500 transaction fee.
Because it's such a large purchase.
So many things about this.
One, if his wife hadn't said something, he could have flown home and never gone
back to get the money and that would be the most expensive
bit. I'm just assuming the bar's going to refund him.
Two,
how's your FPOS account if you can do
a purchase for $100,000 over
the bar? Even if it's a credit card,
how's your credit card limit? Yeah, that's
massive, isn't it?
Mine would bounce, surely.
100 grand.
That's dangerous. It's a dangerous amount of money,
especially to have at the pub.
I'm trying to think if mine would bounce if it was $100.
Dollars. Probably.
Anyway, he's tweeted
about it and he's done a hilarious
Twitter thread which has gone viral.
I thought, oh, go and check this guy out. Sounds like he's got good
bants. Don't because everything
else on there is just cricket commentary.
Oh.
No wonder he was drinking.
Tell you what
I could really go for a beer right now.
Same.
Bree and Clint. The Podcast.
ZM. Ladies and gentlemen please
welcome to the studio,
New Zealand's most beautiful television crier,
it's Maddie McLean!
And the rightful winner of Celebrity Treasure Island.
Can I just say, you have really stuffed up my bet.
I put money on you to win this competition. I had money in a pool over at TVNZ that you were going to win.
I think I was a few people's office sweepstakes picks and
that devastates me.
God, it was a cliffhanger from
Tuesday night to Sunday night.
I do know what I was sitting there last night.
I knew what was going to happen.
My heart was racing
and I was like, I know the outcome.
And you're like, wait, do I get saved?
Spoiler alert, in case you haven't picked up on it,
Maddie McLean, TVNZ weatherman,
was eliminated from Celebrity Treasure Island last night.
Well, it was actually on Tuesday night you were eliminated,
and then we saw last night whether or not Gary Freeman
decided to use the mercy card on you.
Turns out he just called you back to give you your hat.
My hat?
Your bloody hat. My bloody hat. I didn't want my hat. It's a good hat, though. No, it is you your hat. My hat? Your bloody hat.
My bloody hat.
I didn't want the hat.
It's a good hat, though.
No, it is a cute hat.
It looks good in it.
You've got to leave with something, right?
If you can't leave with $100,000 for your charity,
at least you can leave with your hat.
At least with my H&M $5 hat.
If you can't leave with your dignity after crying about Barbara Kendall on TV,
at least you can leave with your hat.
I just thought the hat stinks.
Like, I've been wearing it for nine days.
I don't want the hat. I just thought the hat stinks. Like, I've been wearing it for nine days. I don't want the hat.
Get rid of the hat. I saw you went and watched last night's episode
at your best friend Jack Tame's house
for a bit of emotional support. He gave me
none of that.
He's ruthless on the gram with you,
can I say? I know, but do you know what?
If you can't have your best
mate bring you back down to earth, like, who is going
to do that for you? Exactly right.
He's the one you want to do it.
Look, cut the BS.
Sex, marry, kill.
Who's it going to be?
Slavery, Treasure Island version.
Okay.
I'd marry Moses.
Who wouldn't?
Because then I could have... Oh, my God.
He could sing at your guy's wedding.
Oh, my God.
Shotgun coming.
And shotgun attending. Yeah. shotgun attending yeah oh yeah yeah shotgun
winning um and so what have you got you've got mary who are you going to just have sex with uh
it would have to be lily lily yep she's babe i never i never went all the way with a girl and
i feel like she would be the one you want your first time to be with Lily McManus?
Oh, my God.
She'd show you a thing or two.
Yeah, she would.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah, she could.
She would definitely take the lead for you if you wanted her to.
And the nitty-gritty, who would you kill?
I mean, I think we all know.
Barbara Kendall.
You're going to kill Olympic gold medalist Barbara Kendall.
Hypothetically.
She killed me, basically.
You're going to kill national treasure Barbara Kendall.
I know.
No, that's fair enough.
I'd probably kill her if I was in her situation, too.
I mean, it's her or Sam Wallace.
But ask me to say that to her face and I will run away.
Oh, no, no, it's fine.
You can stab her in the back.
That is Maddie McLean no longer in contention to win Celebrity Treasure Island.
Thanks for coming to talk to us.
Thank you, team.
Thanks, Maddie.
Remember, you can win two grand
if you watch the show tonight.
There'll be a keyword come up.
Just text that to 9696.
It's right beside mine and Bree's face.
And here's a tip.
It is a big episode tonight.
Let's just say blood will be shed.
TVNZ 2, 7.30pm.
Bree and Clint.
ZM's Bree and Clint, the podcast.
A Whangarei man may be New Zealand's luckiest person
after winning Lotto First Division twice in a row.
That is ridiculous.
So the man who does not want to be named, understandably,
on August 28 won $27,000.
Right, which is a good win.
It's a good win.
You'd take that.
That's a once in a lifetime win.
Especially when people play for 25, 30, 35 years and win nothing.
$27,000.
And then on September 4, he won a million dollars.
How?
Oh, they'd be investigating that.
You said this, and I don't think they will.
I think it's just lotto.
It's luck of the draw.
It's just you buy a ticket, you win.
You can't rig the lotto.
That's the thing.
That's what they say, but there's been movies made where they rig the lotto.
The interesting thing to me is people who win first division
and then still remember to buy a ticket the next week.
So for me, if I won, I'd be like, yeah,
and then I'd probably clock out of lotto.
I'd be like, oh, yeah, that's me done.
But he had the nows to buy another ticket the next week,
and then it won him a million dollars.
These are the stories that fuel people like you.
People like me?
Yes, people like you who truly, truly believe
you're going to win Lotto one day.
No, I just truly, truly believe I'd like to win Lotto one day.
And you've got to be in to win, girl.
You can't win if you don't spin.
How much do you think you've spent on Lotto tickets?
How much?
20 bucks a week.
For how many weeks?
No, I only buy a ticket when I'm feeling lucky.
I only buy a ticket when I'm feeling lucky I only buy a ticket when I'm feeling lucky And you feel lucky often
How about this?
This guy in Whangarei
Who has won Lotto twice in a row, first division
After he won the second time
Decided he wouldn't buy a third ticket
He's on this epic run
And then he's gone, nah, that's enough
And he didn't go and buy a ticket the next week
There's no way he'd win three times
There's no way he should have won two times.
Surely you just give it a go.
Surely you give it a go.
Right?
I got the worst prank ever played on me once on radio.
Someone fix the lotto numbers?
No, well, I thought the only time I ever buy tickets
is when it's like it's a mega draw.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, the best times to buy it.
Yeah.
It was like 50 million.
It was the 50 million.
It was the first one ever in Australia and I bought a ticket.
And we're on our way to the radio station and it comes over the radio that someone in Queensland, which I was living in Queensland at the time,
had won the ticket but they hadn't come forward.
Yeah.
And anyway, my co-host at the time sneakily had a look at my lotto ticket
that I hadn't checked yet and then he read out the lotto numbers on air
and just so happened to be all of my numbers, didn't it?
Yeah, it's a classic gag.
It's also a great way to ruin a friendship.
Oh, trust me.
Hang on, isn't that right about the time you decided to move to New Zealand?
It was, yeah.
