Hey, live sport, live radio, we're here for all of it. Let's do it.
Starting point is 00:03:10 It's Trady versus Ladies. Three, two, one. This is Trady versus Lady. We're every day at three o'clock. The Trades go head to head with the ladies. Sometimes the Trady is also a lady. It doesn't matter. What matters is the score.
Starting point is 00:03:27 We keep score all year. And Ruby at the moment, the ladies lead the tradies 68 to 61. They've led all year the ladies. Not surprised at all. Really great opportunity today, though, to go ahead with that score line. Just that one more number there. They'd like to take it. That's the one.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Let's meet our contestants. Our lady is calling from Dunedin. She's 15 and she drove a train when she was 14. Welcome to the show, Charlie. I said, um, trainee. I'm pretty sure I said trady. Oh, you wanted to be a tradie. Oh, I'll go with a lady.

Starting point is 00:06:02 Well done. Oh my God, no way. You're on the board, Charlie. I actually thought it was fair. Oh, well, why'd you say Sabrina Carpenter then? Because I don't know. Because you were right. What a lucky accident.

Charlie, you've got to come in here with the defence. Okay, I'm going to take you guys to the gym with me. We're going to lie down on the bench.

Charlie, what do you say to allegations that you threw that game because you actually wanted the tradies to win? How dare you? I don't think to be a lady, bro? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:11 I very clearly said trade. We love you, Charlie. We love you. Yeah, yeah. You can email complaints at ZMonline.com. Or at Bree. Yeah, yeah, send your messages to Bree. ZDM's Brie and Clint podcast
Starting point is 00:07:26 The record button comes on so quick You'll get used to it You'll figure it out The Black Ferns left Auckland Last night for the Rugby World Cup It's about to get underway Over in England Their first games against Spain
Starting point is 00:07:40 In 10 days time Of course we're all gutted That Ruby is not in the team For this World Cup But it was announced yesterday That you will be there You're going to be there in England Absolutely first plan was like
Starting point is 00:07:53 I still got to go over there, like, support my team. Because it's pretty amazing, like, making a World Cup squad in your career is, like, whether it's your first one, your fourth one, like Calibrasia, it's always just such a massive occasion. So I was like, nah, I'm going to go, like, be a punter, just support the girls. Well, you're just going to get tickets and go in the stands? Well, 100%. Like, I love, I'm like, yeah, I love a good live sports game, and it makes it so much cooler when your friends are there.
Starting point is 00:08:17 But it's been a really crazy time, but a really cool one. super excited to announce I'm actually going to be joining the BBC media team and covering the game so I'm actually working the World Cup. Hell yes. Yeah and it's pretty crazy like I didn't realize how massive the BBC
Starting point is 00:08:37 are. Yeah, yeah, that's fair enough. Some of you remember that clip from the Olympics where I think that's where you truly got on the global radar and it was at that Tokyo games where everyone was socially distancing
Starting point is 00:08:55 and the reporters had masks on and the reporter from the BBC goes Ruby Ruby can we have an interview and Ruby turns around and goes oh BBC better be clear with your questions at the Olympics when you come off the ground off the pitch there's like
Starting point is 00:09:12 all these media people lined up for interview so I just was like oh yeah like one's a newsletter in Brazil and then the next is the BBC they've all got masks on like and I just treat everybody the same So, yeah, I really didn't realize how serious it was. But it worked the trade and all the girls from, like, the England team after that. When I sent them, they were like, bro.
Starting point is 00:09:30 And I was like, bro, sorry, I don't know what I did. They're like, don't you even know what our TV channels are. That's going to make a great video, though, where you transition from not knowing what the BBC is to literally being on the BBC at this Rugby World Cup. It's very cool. I think a lot of people, like, know you for as much as your rugby as they do, your post-match interviews.
Starting point is 00:09:52 And what did those interviews do for you and getting that kind of coverage, not just at the Olympics, but at the last World Cup as well? How did it change your life, that sort of attention? I definitely have to preface, like, I've always been, I've been in the game a long time and I've seen such huge transition, and I've always really respected
Starting point is 00:10:10 and been extremely grateful for anyone who covers any of our games. So I've always kind of handled interviews like that, like just authentically with gratitude. And so, like, that was kind of the first one that like just popped off and then you know like people from all around the world wanted to all of a sudden link up and do stuff like it was it was pretty crazy but it's also been cool being able to like help other players deal with that um because it does get in your head
Starting point is 00:10:36 and I think sometimes as a young and you're like oh let's go do all this stuff but it's like man you got to do footy first figure out yourself first look after yourself and then that's when the best version of yourself can come out here man there's not talking on the radio hey Water? You're doing a great job. Can you tell me, and I don't mean this to sound as salty as it does, but why are the women so much better at the post-match interviews than the men? I've never seen a more boring interview than with an all-black
Starting point is 00:11:05 directly after winning one of the biggest games of their career. Do you know that it's so buzzy that they're like that because if you meet any of the boys, I'm really good friends with lots of them, they're so cool, they're so interesting. Except for maybe Artie. Artie gives a real interview. The man, right?
Starting point is 00:11:21 He's really conscious about all that stuff, really does stuff off the field, which I think helps a lot of men, a lot of males. But we've just, we've never been afraid of opening up and we've understood the business concept of if we want to inspire young girls and get in the face of young girls, it has to be through something.
Starting point is 00:11:39 It has to be through a medium. So like, you know, let's talk about it. Let's talk about how we feel. Let's talk about how bloody hard that was. Let's talk about what it feels like, you know, like I just missed out on a World Cup. pretty crushing but also if I've got all my ducks lined up I'm actually just full of joy gratitude and I'm pumped
Starting point is 00:11:57 and look what's happened you know look what's come out of it well there you go you hit it here first on ZM Ruby Toey will be at the Rugby World Cup she's going to be on the BBC can you be on our show too can you be our official Rugby World Cup correspondent correspondent that's the proper word isn't it I was just going to be your plug like yeah yeah yeah call me up anytime I'll be at the grounds like who played what but I'll we'll say this is a really exciting tournament for the Black Ferns. Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:21 And England are ranked number one. We've got a pretty nice pool. So if it all goes to plan, we have Canada and the semis, you know, maybe South Africa, Italy and the quarterfinals. So it's going to be an amazing tournament to watch. Already sold out tickets to the Allianz, which was Twickenham Stadium. Already record numbers. Like, you don't want to miss out on this.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Oh, we go. We're so excited. And great to have your insight as well. That is Franklin. Ruby Toe filling in. How you going? You're all right? We're still here.
Starting point is 00:12:47 We're still here. I think there's a break coming up for Fadipuku break, okay. Yes. Ruby goes to me, hey, um, when do you go to the toilet? We'll do it shortly. First, though, Brooke's here with a new episode of Brock Explains. Brooke Explains. We've done Laboos.
Starting point is 00:13:06 We've done the Ibitha final boss. But today, and actually this week, it's all been Taylor Swift, hasn't it, Brooke? Yeah, the Swifties, I think they're finally getting everything that they wanted and everything that they hope for. So Ruby, you will want to hold your way in for this. Okay, I'll stay with you, bro. Well, definitely don't let it out. Not now, not now anyway.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Okay, so the last 48 hours has been huge information overload for Swifties. We got the countdown on her website that there is something coming, and that's when we found out life of a show girl, her next, her 12th era is going to be out. Okay, and take notes. Take, yeah, yeah. There's a quiz after this. And then today, we knew that the podcast was going to come out on her boyfriend, and Travis Kelsey's podcast with his brother.
Starting point is 00:13:50 So that was going to have more information about this new album and era. I did see that. It's the ultimate cross-promotion. She has brought her fame to their already successful podcast and just sent it through the fricking roof. It's genius.
Starting point is 00:14:05 That's so good. Like entertainment times entertainment. Yeah. But also I think it was trust for her because if she was to let any other outlet have that inside scoop, they could have easily turned it on her. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:14:18 Like this trust, that's my boyfriend. He's not going to do me dirty or cut me in a funny, you know, get it. You'd hope there's trust there in the relationship. So she went on new heights today. A lot of fans talking online about how touchy-feely they work. We don't really get to see that very often, so it's quite nice to see Taylor's. She looks AI. She looks gorgeous, but it was great to see her and Travis holding hands.
Starting point is 00:14:37 That's cute. Yeah, it is. I've never seen a podcast where people were holding hands during it. No, that's true. That is true. You know, it's a different kind of... There was a visual. Wait, is that the gag?
Starting point is 00:14:49 There was a visual. We watched it on YouTube. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no, that wasn't my gag. I mean, any podcast you've ever listened to, I've never imagined the host's holding hands. No, and you could really hear it as well. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:59 Yeah. The flirting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She talked largely on... How much of a cuck was the brother, though? He was just watching them. He was in another room. He wasn't even allowed in the same room as them.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Poor Jason, Kelsey's just like, oh, yuck, guys. Yeah, when they made, like... jokes at each other and that's my brother you're talking my younger brother you're talking about anyway a large chunk of the podcast was talking about like the reowning of her masters which was a big deal yeah big deal for her to get them back so she owns all her music now this is obviously the 12th is going to be like her first after the big ordeal of getting her masters back and i found this very interesting we've got some audio she wrote this new album that comes out on
Starting point is 00:15:43 October 3rd during the ERAs tour. It was something that I was working on while I was in Europe on the ERAs tour. So while you're on tour? I was working. I would be on tour. How on earth did she do this on the tour is still blowing my mind? I just love it. I just love it a lot.
Starting point is 00:16:00 I love music. I would be playing shows. I'd do like three shows in a row. I'd have three days off. I'd fly to Sweden, go back to the tour. And actually like working on this, I was physically exhausted at this point in the tour, but I was so. mentally stimulated and so excited to be creating.
Starting point is 00:16:16 That's impressive. That is wildly impressive. I would think my output of work during a time where I'm already at my wits some of the song lyrics, you can imagine that you'd write if you were really tired would not be good. The typos on your iPhone, A, the autocorrect would just be out of the gate. I just want to say, though, the hype from her partner, like, that is so cool. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:37 You know, when you're doing something massive and your people like to support you through and and he's like hyping her up, giving her that kudos. Like, that's probably why she can do it. He is her biggest cheerleader, right? Yeah, and there is a lot of stick because obviously he's talking to a male-dominated sports podcast who, any chance they get rip in on Taylor Swift, I think she made a gag as well being like, you know what male sports spaces need? More of my face, because everyone would boo when she was on the big jumbo jazz.
Starting point is 00:17:02 That's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, yeah. When I did a sabbatical over in America, and when I was staying there, Taylor Swift was on tour. So I ended up in the same city as her tours. And when I say, like, you couldn't get a coffee, you couldn't get a hotel room, you couldn't even, like, walk through the town without 100,000 little mini Taylor Swift's and their mums, who were also like Taylor Swift as well.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Yeah. Like, you've got to respect, like, the power she's just dominated the world with. And I think that will be really cool for that male audience, you know, like, man, they can do it. We can do it too. Let's all bloody do it together. And the world will be a better place. 100%. It was very informative.
Starting point is 00:17:37 It was a great episode of Brooke Explains. Thank you. I feel like I get it now. I feel like I get the whole thing. When does the album come out? It comes out October 3rd. There it is. Z-N's Braynclin.
Starting point is 00:17:47 Brean Clinton and Ruby Toey. It's okay. You don't have to look like someone just jumped out of a bush every time we turn the microphone on. It just gives me such a fright. Like you and Bree must be so useless. But like, guys, if you're listening, there's just like, I don't know how many fluorescent lights
Starting point is 00:18:03 that just turn on. But you'd be used to floodlights. They're just like floodlights in a stadium. Yeah, but they don't like, you know, strobe light. It's just, it's up. Yeah, it's like someone forgot to turn the key on at the rugby fields and then bang, it's on. Also, you do give me warning.
Starting point is 00:18:15 I just like forget. It's okay. It's your first time. We're an hour one of your new career as a radio host, so it's all good. I've got Soundkeeper Brooke back in here because I thought you could have a guess at the secret sound, Ruby Toey. I've always wanted to do this. This is a lifelong dream. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Oh, it's secret sound. Like you grow up guessing this. Yes. Yeah, yeah. And it annoys the heck out of you. What's going to be annoying for you is Brooke is unable to tell you if you get the sound right. That's weird. Am I allowed to tell her if she gets it wrong?
Starting point is 00:18:46 Yep. Okay. Yeah. If you're willing to, yeah. You can, it's going to be, it's going to be extra. Can I hear her guess first? It's going to be extra suss if you go, oh, I'm not going to answer that one. Oh, yeah, true.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Pleased the fifth. Yeah, yeah. Let's just, let's just play. You feel the vibes? Yeah, I will. Ruby hasn't heard the secret sound yet. I haven't heard the secret sound yet, but just real quick. I just really want to make a shout out to Brooke.
Starting point is 00:19:11 She is the only one here who knows her sound. And I've just witnessed her do all this work. Run around, she's been here. She's 7 a.m. protecting the sound. And I just, like, she's, you're pretty amazing, Brooke. I've just met you, but I'm impressed by your work great. I'm so sleep deprived. I'm going to cry.
Starting point is 00:19:27 Don't compliment me, Ruby, too. It will push me over the end. You're like a flanker if anyone asks. You have the work rate of a flanker. I reckon she's buttering you up, so you give her the answer. Oh, no. No, typical winger. Here it is.
Starting point is 00:19:40 This is the secret sound. Ruby Toey, do you know what this is? Oh, they're so good, bro. They're so good because you want to just hear it again and again, but you can't. That's so many things I've got to pick one. Okay. I'm not going to go with this, but the first time I heard it, I thought it was like an electric fence.
Starting point is 00:20:05 but I'm not, that's not my guess, Brooke. No, no, but that's the realm you're in. Yeah, that electric. That's where my mind went first, which is always a good place to kind of dive into a little bit. But then I'm going to go with, it's simply, it's something turning on and off. So I'm going to go, it's an oven element turning on and off.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Oh, come in it. Like the gas ones? Like a gas element. Igniting. Damn it, her face, I really know, it's not it. Well, Brooke. You can't tell me. Can you tell me?
Starting point is 00:20:36 No. That is not the secret. But it's so good. Do you know there has been some guesses where I'm like, that does kind of sound like that though. Yeah, yeah. That sounds like that, doesn't it? What that noise.
Starting point is 00:20:49 Shut up, what that noise. Zat M's Bree and Clint podcast. This is The Tea. Brooks in with the tea. There's a story about Jason Mamoa who's come out and said that he nearly drowned. Yeah, but it's weird because this has. It happened all the way back in 2007.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Oh. So it wasn't recently. So he was out surfing in Hawaii. He paddled 13 miles out. He's with Surf Legend, Larry Hamilton and Dave Kamal. So they're great surfers. Jason Mamoa is just like superhuman, so that's all good. But he got halfway out and then his little attachment, you know, oh no, it's on your ankle.
Starting point is 00:21:27 Yeah. You've got your string attached to the board. Boing! Just snapped. Jason Mamoa was free from his board and he started... started slowly sinking down. Oh, no. It's like a worst nightmare, though.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Yeah. Yeah. Luckily, being with two surfers, they eventually noticed that he was not with him anymore. They turned around. But this beach in Hawaii is known, like, it's like our version of Pihar. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:51 No one for sucking people in and just wild. At the same time, though, he's Aquaman. This was pre-Aquaman. Ah. It's still a little bit awkward, like if Aquaman drowned, though. It is awkward, yeah. Also, in 2007, he was on Baywatch. What?
Starting point is 00:22:08 He was a lifeguard on Baywatch. It's even worse. It is even worse. Would you say it's like Birdman not being able to fly? Yeah. It's like Superman dying in a plane crash. It's like the flash going slow. You said you've just been watching the new Jason Mamoa Chief of War show.
Starting point is 00:22:24 Good? Oh, so cool. Like, I think it's historical because it's kind of a story about war, ancient war and colonisation from the perspective of the indigenous people. Awesome, amazing. But what makes it epic is there's a whole bunch of like all blacks in the opening scene.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Like I went to the premiere and I sat in there like oh yeah and there were actually a couple all blacks there, like said hi to them and sat down, had no idea. Next minute off it just starts trying to kill Jason Mamoa. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:51 I was like, in the movie. Sorry, sorry. In the movie, in the movie. Completely pretend. But it's like epic. Like it's not just a, like I remember they were on Shortland Street one year and the camera just had them on for two seconds.
Starting point is 00:23:01 No, no, no. This is a full fight scene. So the All Blacks that are in it have actually got a decent part in that opening scene. Especially awful, which is so cute because he's huge and Musley Bay is actually really quiet. Okay. So this is really big.
Starting point is 00:23:12 Like, it's an epic scene. I don't want to ruin it, but it's so cool. The show is good? Like, so good. And he made a real point of, like, only speaking Hawaiian. Like, all the characters had to learn Hawaiian. And it was filmed here in Ontario. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:25 Like, it's epic. I think they shot a lot of it out at Pihar. Oh. He could have nearly drowned again. They're like, don't go on the water. please, Jason. We've spent a lot of money on this TV show. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, that's the T.
Starting point is 00:23:37 The ZD.M. Podcast Network. ZD.M. Bree and Clint. With Ruby Toey. This is like a feel-good story about someone getting their precious thing returned to them. That's nice.
Starting point is 00:23:50 It involves the Blue Bridge Ferry, the other ferry in the Cook Strait. They have successfully reunited an Australian family who were crossing the strait going to Picton with their monkey that they left on the boat. And it got back to the, was it the little girls or was it like the dads? Little boys toy monkey. Oh, that's cute.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Kevin Bear, who's a four-year-old human, left George the toy monkey on the ship and they got off at Picton. Anyone with kids, especially kids at that age, knows what a big deal it is if your kid is separated from that one special toy. Like they can lose any toy except for that one toy. 100% like we're talking could be sleepless nights for everyone in the household. Yeah. You know, tantrums again. You're like, we'll get you another monkey and I don't want. another monkey I want George
Starting point is 00:24:35 Anyway long story short They've moved heaven and earth To get George the monkey back to Kevin Which is great They used Facebook and they used all kinds of things And the Blue Bridge ferries documented the journey Of George the monkey Making it back to his family
Starting point is 00:24:49 It's so cool It's really good But would they have done that for your air pods If you'd left them on the ferry? Can you imagine the amount of air pods That are secretly down Like aeroplane chairs I've rung-A and the people just
Starting point is 00:25:02 in the nicest way, like, there's no way you're getting there back. There's no way. Because you can see them on that map too. Yeah. I lost a pair of Samsung earbuds in Perth and I can see them. I can see exactly where they are.
Starting point is 00:25:14 But I'm not going back to Perth. Yeah, hard out. I don't know when I'm going back to Perth. I'm never getting those things back. Yeah, and just when you, that moment, that poor kid too, like that moment when you remember that you've forgotten it. Yes.
Starting point is 00:25:24 Like that's just your heart drops. Can I out my teammate on live radio? Is that? Yeah. That's all right? Yeah. I hope she doesn't mind. one of the most powerful unreal wingers
Starting point is 00:25:34 in the Black Friends at moment, Aisha Leti Inga, this is a true story. We get to Eden Park for the final of the Rugby World Cup. Like, you know, get to, like, any rugby game. The Pinnacle. The fricking Pinnacle, Eden Park and she is like, oh, I forgot my boots.
Starting point is 00:25:52 I was like, what do you mean? Like, just, you know. You could forget almost anything else and be okay. Oh, you know, like these days, they've got your mouth card for you, they're hanging your jersey up for it. Like everything is,
Starting point is 00:26:05 there's just one thing you've got to remember as a professional rugby player is your boots. And I think in the end, one of the front rollers, because they always bring two pairs of boots. Yeah. This ever happens to you, just go to a front rower.
Starting point is 00:26:16 She ended up having to give her scrumming boots or something to age. And were they the same size or were they close enough? I think it was one of those close enough. Close enough. Like just say a Karakia and run out. I thought that a team like a professional rugby team
Starting point is 00:26:28 would have like a cupboard full of boots. for that sort of situation. There's, like, suit and boots for certain things, spare clothes, spare mouthguards. But as a player, like, your boots are like your, you know, that's like your thing. Did she tell the coaches or did she just tell us a couple of players that she trusted and you guys went,
Starting point is 00:26:45 we'll find you some boots? There was no way we were trying, it was smithy and, like, Ted. There was no way we play the coaches. And, like, the other funny thing is that Aish was always on the speaker, just for outpost the bus. And you could just see her, like, trying to cue the songs, like running around. I was like, oh, she's flustered.
Starting point is 00:27:00 Oh, it was, yeah, so I'm so glad that the monkey got back to the boy because those moments when you realize, right? Not all good. We want to talk to people this afternoon who have got lost and found stories. The thing that you lost that you thought you were never going to see again, and then somehow it made it back to you.

Starting point is 00:27:24 and you go to your partner and you're like, babe, it's gone. And then somehow, you know those stories you see in the news where someone pulls our carrot out of the veggie garden 30 years later and it's got the engagement ring wrapped around the bottom of a carrot, that kind of thing?

Starting point is 00:28:43 engraved? No, it was this beautiful little parlor ring from a shop somewhere up north and I still remember it to the day. I've actually lost it since then but... No, see. Now that's all good. Just wait a couple of years, it'll come back again, you know? Yeah, I'm hoping so.

Starting point is 00:29:08 What's the thing that you lost? And did it come back to you? Yes. So, a few years back, I lost my lunchbox on a school trip to the rec center in Kilbirney Wellington. And then two days later, we had school cross-country. and we had taken a bus And then we had got out And then in the middle of the field
Starting point is 00:29:31 I saw something bright purple And I ran over And it was my lost lunchbox Just sitting there And the cross-country park And the Rickenter Ward Like on the other side How did your lunchbox get from the bus
Starting point is 00:29:45 To the middle of a field? We still don't know to this day That's buzzy And then you're How did it get there And then how did you also find it? So we had just gone to the park across country and I walked over and saw my lunchbox with all the things they had left
Starting point is 00:30:01 sitting there. Your lunch was still in there. Did you eat it? I ate half of it. Yeah, you did. Oh wow, well I. That's so cold. Do you still have the lunchbox?
Starting point is 00:30:11 Yes, I do. Can't lose the magic lunchbox. Get this story. I'd given a bag of clothing to our local secondhand shop. Suddenly, I couldn't find my greenstone that I got on my wedding day. Weeks later, my mum. goes to the same secondhand shop and she's buying some bags
Starting point is 00:30:28 and she buys the bag that I donated with the greenstone inside it she recognised it straight away Oh my goodness That's buzzy That's like you don't want to If you lose a taunga That's like that's like giving whale rider

Starting point is 00:30:55 What did you do in the first place? Did you just send that ticket? No, that's... Excuse you. Paige is here. Hi, Paige. Hi. We're taking life-changing stories of Lost and Found.
Starting point is 00:31:09 What's yours? So, about four, maybe three years ago. I lost my wedding ring while renovating our house. Okay. It was prior to having our car. up it down and then I just made an assumption that I'd lost it either under the carpet or under a bed and then I sold my daughter's nappy bag and about five or six months later I got a random message on Facebook marketplace and like hey I've just washed
Starting point is 00:31:41 the nappy bag and I've just found a diamond ring in my washer machine oh my god what good people to let you know that there was a diamond ring in there they didn't need to do that did they page definitely not I thought I'm going to be honest I thought the story was going to You made your partner rip up all the new carpet to find your diamond ring and then it was in the ashtray the whole time. Oh my goodness. Were you like nervous?
Starting point is 00:32:05 Were you super nervous when you lost it? Did you tell your partner? Wasn't overly nervous. Just gagster. Yeah. Yolo. Okay, thanks. We're talking about stories of lost and found out.
Starting point is 00:32:18 I lost my cat. He went missing in the 2023 Auckland floods. Turns out he'd been living at Bunnings up the road. Someone posted a photo. of him on Facebook and we went and got him. Oh my gosh, a bunnings care. How good. And this text is what we'll end with.
Starting point is 00:32:32 Someone said, one day I was driving down Mount Smart Road in Auckland when I saw a small child aged two in the middle of the road. I swerved to the side to avoid him, jumped out of the car and ran to pick him up. There were no adults to be seen. Another woman pulled over in her car and together we walked around and found which house he had come out of. In the panic of the moment, I left my keys in the car and five minutes later came back out to find
Starting point is 00:32:57 someone had jumped in my car and driven off with it. Stolen car. I called the cops, but I didn't hold out much hope. A few days later, I was driving to the supermarket in my mum's car that I'd borrowed. I went down some back streets to avoid traffic that I don't usually use
Starting point is 00:33:13 and there on the side of the road was my car. I found my stolen car. That was so emotional. That was an emotional roller coaster. I had no idea where that was going. like a lost child and then I lost car and had everything Are you okay? Who was it?
Starting point is 00:33:29 I need to know how it ends. Did you then steal your own car back? 100%. Did the parents get found? And who was the child? Yeah, was it by a school? Full on. That was intense, man. A ZM's Breinclin podcast.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Once upon a time there was a girl. She was smart, debatable, talented. Eh, athletic, not really, but picking a movie title based on just the plot line that she can do. Bree and Clint's What's the Plot? That's the intro for Brie, which actually, weirdly, is kind of reversed with you this week, isn't it? That actually is really impressive.
Starting point is 00:34:13 That makes me rate, very hard. Athletic, yes. But guessing a movie based on just the plot line? Probably not. I take me out of that one. It might be, no shade, the most winnable round of what's the plot in a long, long time. Okay. Because it's you versus Ruby Toey today, Jess.
Starting point is 00:34:32 Hi-da. Hi, how are you? We're good. How are you going? A bit nervous to be honest. No need, Jess. Absolutely no need. Have you listened to this game when Brie is in the hot seat before?
Starting point is 00:34:46 Yeah, but it depends on the, like, what calls? kind of movies it is. Oh, totally. So whether I'm getting anything or not. Totally. I back you, Jess. Well, I can give you the theme for this week so you both know what it is. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Today, all of our movies are New Zealand movies. Oh, that's so cool. Kiwi films, classic Kiwi films. How does that sit with you, Jess? We'll give it a go. Sure. Give it a go, okay. So we're clear.
Starting point is 00:35:15 How this works is I read out plot lines. You guys buzz in with your name, Jess or Ruby, as soon as you think you know what that movie is you don't wait for me to finish the plot you just go for it when you think you'd got it and the first person to guess two movies correctly wins the whole game let's go Jess
Starting point is 00:35:35 shake your hand good game all the best here we go guys movie number one a juvenile delinquent is sent to live with foster parents in the New Zealand bush but after his foster mum's death he runs away to
Starting point is 00:35:51 avoid being sent back. Ruby. Hunt for the wilder people? Hunt for the wilder people. It's correct. Ricky Baker, not Ricky, but that was a jam. Sorry, Jess, I got so excited. I could see it, but I just couldn't think of it.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Yeah, I was watching Ruby do the same thing. It was right there on the tip of her tongue. Oh my gosh. It's okay, Jess. You got this one, okay? Come through, Jess, come on. Movie number two in What's the Plot? An 11-year-old lives on a farm with his younger brother, their grand and a goat.
Starting point is 00:36:33 Shortly after Grand leaves for a week, his father appears out of the blue. Having imagined a heroic version of his... Boy, I mean, Ruby. Ruby. Boy! Boy! Ah! Sorry, Jess, bro.
Starting point is 00:36:47 That movie is iconic. I can see that one as well Yeah Jackson It's all right I was looking at Ruby Toey standing about four metres away from her microphone
Starting point is 00:36:55 And I was like How are you going to buzz in From the other side of the room She was pacing Jess I'm not used to the mics We can't give you the 650 But we can give you 50 KFC chicken dollars As a consolation prize Jess
Starting point is 00:37:07 Sorry Jess Okay thank you, that's all good I hope you like some protein chicken Who doesn't Thank you for joining us I really appreciate it There you go. You had, while you've obviously disappointed Jess,
Starting point is 00:37:23 you have avoided the wrath of Brie. Yes. Because if you had given that away, we would start back at $50 next week. And she would, you can't hide that. No, she would know. No, Bree spent 13 weeks building up that jackpot so far. So she'll be happy.
Starting point is 00:37:38 Yes, they were good movies. Play Z-N's Bree and Clint. We were having a chat before you got here, Ruby, today with our producer Ella. who is newly married, recently married. Congratulations. Thanks. Did you guys live together before you got married? Yeah, at mom's house.
Starting point is 00:37:54 Oh, that's right. Yeah. Save some money. That's a hack. Now you've got your own spot, kind of. Yeah, it counts living in my friend's basement. And you're doing that thing. Even relationship does it, but particularly when you just get married,
Starting point is 00:38:07 you're furnishing your space, right? You're setting up your home together. We're buying some furniture. You're not happy about the item of furniture. that your new husband wants to bring into their house, are you? Not really. I was explaining to the team today that Ryan is going to start working from home full time.
Starting point is 00:38:26 First of all, couldn't do that. Second of all, he... There's a lot of people's dream is doing from home. I know, it is. And respect. People who don't have kids. Yeah, I mentioned that. Yeah, not good.
Starting point is 00:38:39 Yeah. Not good. But obviously, if he's working from home, he needs a comfortable seat. So now he's looking at comfortable chairs. which, coincidentally, would also be great for his gaming. So he's looking at gaming chairs. And I was just explaining to everyone today how ugly gaming chairs are.
Starting point is 00:38:57 And the ones he's looking at a red, black, like red and black, like big bright colors. And it will be, we look at the TV and in the corner of my eye will be that ugly chair. I'm not having it. So I'm trying to really not encourage him to get those chairs. Cheers. I got a foot in both camps. First, you congratulate you. Like, so cool.
Starting point is 00:39:19 You're married and go your own place. Like, that's goals. That's sweet. Thank you. But those gaming chairs just dominate a room. They just completely change the feng shui. That's exactly my thinking, yeah. But also, I'd probably get one with a big, like, Black Spoon's logo on the back.
Starting point is 00:39:33 Oh, okay. They serve a purpose, right? I'm sure they're real good for gaming in. But if you're in a small space... Yeah. And you guys watch TV on your bed and next to the TV is the gaming chair. Yeah. That's hideous.
Starting point is 00:39:46 It's just not, I imagine it's not, I've got nothing against gamers or gaming. No, if it was in another room. But I just admit, I assume it's not the, it's not the aesthetic you imagined for your first home together, is it? Yeah, that's it's all about the, I can't say it, aesthetic. Do you know what? I think this is giving, it's giving game plan. He's going to buy the most outrageous tier, so then he has to have a gaming room. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Oh, that's evil genius. You know, he's just slowly planting the seed. Oh, babe. just one thing. Are you willing to put your foot down over the gaming chair? Yeah, we've discussed it. So then I start helping him, which he regrets asking for my help, because then I'm like showing him nice chairs that look good,
Starting point is 00:40:28 but maybe sitting on them wouldn't be the most comfortable thing. So we need like a nice medium. Oh no, it's got to be comfortable. Yeah, of course. Yeah, yeah. But like, cute, please. I need it to be cute. It's kind of giving like at the, in my team,
Starting point is 00:40:41 like you get a catalogue from the Adidas and you pick all your casual clothes. So like you're but like can you imagine like some people like very different people in a 15s team like front rollers to like outside back so like you can imagine some people are like yeah that one and then the front row is like mate if you pick that I'm going to probably break your finger like you know it's it gets real it's really competitive so what we do is you have to pick styles from like you know everybody's so it's like some items you will love and there's a couple you're like eh that was obviously for the front rowers so like would you compromise yeah would you kind of compromise I might maybe get a couple of chairs. Is there something that you really want that he doesn't want where you can go, okay, you can have your ugly A-F gaming chair if I can have... My big fat rocking chair. Oh yeah, Ella wants a rocking chair.
Starting point is 00:41:25 Ella wants a rocking chair. That sounds fair. What's your husband's name? Ryan. That sounds fair if Ryan gives you a rocking chair. You two have gone to the two most opposite, but also ugliest chairs on the chair spectrum. What are you talking about? It's quite cozy.
Starting point is 00:41:39 We want to talk to people with this afternoon about the ugly item that your partner I wanted to bring into the house. It could have been anything. It could have been an item of furniture, an item of clothing. It could have been a type of car. But you, whether you put your foot down or not, you were like, I cannot bear the idea of this thing being in my house. For me, it was my mink blanket.
Starting point is 00:42:01 My wife said no to, when we first started sharing a bed full-time. She said no to my mink blanket. Can you explain what a mink is? And what does it look like? It's just a black mink blanket. Like? Oh, that's not too well. That's right.
Starting point is 00:42:13 Yeah, I thought so. I think I'm going to say like bright red or bright pink. No, it hasn't got like a tiger on it or something like that. Oh, $100 at him or text 9669696. When the ugly item you or your partner didn't want in the house. ZDM's Bree and Clint podcast. ZM's Bree and Clint with guest host Ruby Toey. We're just having a very relatable conversation with our producer Ella,
Starting point is 00:42:37 whose new husband wants to get a gaming chair in their very small first home together. So funny. So funny. But also not. Yeah, yeah, we're on Alice side, right? On Alice side. Some people are texting in Ella and they said, can't you just throw a blanket over it each night
Starting point is 00:42:52 so you don't have to look at the gaming chair? Or can you just roll it out of the room at the end of the day? Someone else said, think about the ergonomics. It'll be wonderful for his overall health if he gets a gaming chair. Oh, that's a breather. That's a gamer. Yeah. So we want to know what's the item, the ugly item that your partner tried to bring into the house.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Matt's here. Hey, Matt. Hello. Hi, Matt. What was it? My partner really, really wanted to get purple velvet curtains. Oh. And I was like absolutely not. That is not happening whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:43:30 It's giving grimace, Matt. 100%. Yeah. I mean, I'm not against the color of purple, but I can't do purple velvet curtains. Did you know you were in a relationship with someone with such bad. taste? I mean, I've got it, like, yes and no, but it mainly stems from her parents, and it's kind of just that growing up in the up of, like, 1980, not the shots fired at the in-laws as well, Matt.
Starting point is 00:43:58 Did I tell you feel, Matt? You're living dangerously. Thanks, Matt. It's curtains for Matt. Someone said, we asked, what's the ugly thing that you didn't want in your house? We just moved into our beautiful, grown-up new home. driving simulator right in the lounge. Bro, that's the only thing worse in a driving simulator

It was apparently the only place that it could go. It's a monstrosity. That's giving purge, bro. A gun safe in the lounge. Put in the garage.

Starting point is 00:46:34 What a ride. What a ride. It's been bad. It's been crazy. These clips are all over social media at the moment, which I'm glad for, because we can't actually watch the voice here in New Zealand yet, but you're keeping us updated through your Instagram account. Yes, yeah, I am
Starting point is 00:46:48 bombarding people with imagery of me at the moment, but yeah, I am. Sadly, it isn't available here for maybe like a month or so. Oh, okay, but we are going to get it? Yeah, it will be on TV and Zense. Ruby, have you heard this audition? I've heard like a little clip of it,
Starting point is 00:47:02 and I'm like losing it, like, Ron and Keating, the things he's saying about you, like, and I'm so glad you're here because it's really important that, you know, New Zealand entertainers get on the world stage, and you are just doing that for New Zealand. So thank you so much, Roeb. It's so cool.
Starting point is 00:47:15 Thank you, dude. No, it's honestly like, yeah, well, my dad used to have a Ronan Keating City in his truck. So, like, it was mad sitting there, just having his eyes on me even. It was just freaky. So, and I was so cool. Cassie, if you missed it, did a Chapel Roan song
Starting point is 00:47:31 as part of your audition. Sounded like this. What you could hear there is the iconic, You got four chairs, didn't you? Yes, I did. He was mad. He was so mad. He's a little bit of the judges, including Ronan Keating, waxing lyrical, about Kessie.
Starting point is 00:47:53 I've done the voice all around the world, and we get big international artists to come and perform. And it felt like you were already established as an artist, and you were coming to perform your new single here on the voice. That's what that felt like. You know what? You are born to do this. You just own that stage. no natural to you.
Starting point is 00:48:13 That's a spice girl. That was Mousier. Yeah. That's out the gate. Oh, I mean, she is just the coolest person I think I've ever met in my life. And she's so chill. Yeah. So calm and so chill.
Starting point is 00:48:26 And then she's sporty spice and she's giving me a hug. Right. And she's giving my dad a fist bump. And I was like, what is going on? Let's address the elephant in the room here. It's the line from Ronan where he says you have the aura of an already established artist. and to us here in New Zealand you are an established artist
Starting point is 00:48:45 you've got three or four songs that are already on ZM you're playing festivals here so let me put it to you straight Cassie Henderson Are you an industry plant Oh I love this question I've always wanted to be an industry plant No sadly I'm not I have been working so hard for the past five years
Starting point is 00:49:03 I think people think I'm too established to do something like this because there's a misconception that I have like a big label deal and this big team behind me but the reality is I'm living with my parents in like a dungeon
Starting point is 00:49:16 doing all of this mostly myself so I think like you said Ruby like it's really important for us to get out onto the international stage and I really just wanted to try and challenge myself
Starting point is 00:49:29 and see if I could rise up to that and try and make Kiwi's proud so round of a pause for you yeah you pass the test there well done yeah yeah yeah yeah and I got asked it was really stressful
Starting point is 00:49:40 does did sporty spice like in her training because is that your mentor yes yeah that is does she make you do push-ups like does she take you for runs any sport involved like what she like I really hope she does because she's gonna get you in a pair of tearaways as well for one of your performances all addie-dass it'd be sick um no she's like I was like my god you are shredded girl oh it's for real she's ripped she's ripped well she's sporty spice you know she's so ripped but Yeah, I was like, drop the workout routine, please, sis. Has she FaceTimed any of the other Spice Girls in your presence yet? No.
Starting point is 00:50:16 They haven't, like, called through. There hasn't been like baby flash up on the screen on her phone or anything? Oh, imagine. No, it is just wild because she's, you know, she's one of the biggest superstars in the world and, like, it's just so chill. Why do you, it might be an obvious one, but why did you choose her over Ronan? I think for me, the really cool thing about Mel is her, like, work ethic. I feel like she's so
Starting point is 00:50:38 Her big thing is just like consistency, hard work even if you are doing well if you keep doing that you're going to have a long, happy career and that's just quite inspiring for me So it sounds like a bit of you as well Like it sounds like this ain't no fluke
Starting point is 00:50:53 This ain't no luck This is just your hard work consistency True Kiwi spirit Absolutely love it And also probably too She actually like the Spice Girls How they were put together Was a bit of a show right
Starting point is 00:51:04 Like it was a bit of an audition Come through so she's probably got experience of exactly where you're sitting. Is any inside advice she's given you? Like, Ronan, take him out, mate. No, yeah, like that was another thing. Like, obviously she started really young in the industry and I had my start when I was 14
Starting point is 00:51:23 and I like had to deal with what that meant. But she was really nice about the whole thing and she's like, look, you're just, you're going to get commentary on you and you know this already from when you were younger. but that's just part of being in the industry, the good and the bad. That's so exciting. Last question for you, Cassie Henderson.
Starting point is 00:51:42 You're on the Australian voice. If any of them refer to you as an up-and-coming Australian artist, will you be correcting them? Oh, 100%. That's the right answer. So good. Oh, we're so excited to see how this goes. Yeah, man.
Starting point is 00:51:57 If you want to keep up to date before we can see it on Kiwi screens, you should go and follow Cassie on her Instagram account because she's posting the clips as we go through it. Come on over. So cool. Very cool. Best of luck. We're all rooting for you, Cassie.
Starting point is 00:52:09 Thanks, guys. Z-Eames, Brian Clint. We are about to head into another Rugby World Cup cycle. The girls are on the plane right now heading to England for the 2025 Rugby World Cup. Ruby Toey is going over there soon.
Starting point is 00:52:23 She's not in the squad this year, unfortunately, but you're going to be there covering it for us, which is amazing. And I thought you could talk us through a bit about what this World Cup means, not just for the girls, but for everybody else. Yeah, look, the girls are currently on their Dubai to
Starting point is 00:52:38 England leg. They've just finished the stop in Dubai. So they won't get to hear this, but it's actually a huge moment in women's rugby, but also in this country. Like that's genuinely what I believe. I'm super excited to go over there and still be able to
Starting point is 00:52:54 grow the game, but just like I wanted to say to everybody who's listening, you have led the world in a pretty impactful way, which is woman's rugby, just by the support you gave that last World Cup. Like, it was life-changing is one word,
Starting point is 00:53:12 but I think it was generational changing. And since that World Cup, no longer do we just have a couple of little girls who are fans. It's little girls, little boys, older girls, older girls, like it's just broken down so many boundaries for this country. And so the next
Starting point is 00:53:27 World Cup, like guys, the Allian Stadium, which used to be Twickenham Stadium, is, like I've played there a couple of times. It's like one of the pinnacle places to play as a rugby player. Rugby is our national sport. So if you're going to change the world, that's where you're going to do it. The games, the final has already sold out.
Starting point is 00:53:44 It's already going to break a world record. Like it's women's sports globally. It's not will it blow up. It is blowing up. And, you know, I think it's a really important time for New Zealand to stand up and go, I'm going to watch these games. I'm going to like these. I'm going to like and follow these pages.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Yeah. And I'm going to speak up in everyday conversations. about how important our sport is for this World Cup. You're right about it being a generational change. It's been in the last five or six years you've seen, because the Black Ferns have always been there. They've always been world champs or thereabout and grinding away. But in the last five or six years,
Starting point is 00:54:21 you've seen that sport go from being a curtain razor game to being the main event, to selling out Eden Park and to now selling out something like Twickenham, which I don't know the number off the top of my head, but I think it's close to an 80,000. Yeah, is it? can't hear when they're, and the way it's designed, it's like an acoustic, like it's just, it's a lot bigger than Eden Park.
Starting point is 00:54:41 Yeah. And you guys did that, like you guys did that by humanising the game and by giving people, not just, you're right, not just little girls, you are my little girls' heroes, but everybody got to watch that team and go, oh my God, these are Kiwis on the world stage dominating, and then you went on and won the damn thing as well. So the foundation is there, but my God, the pressure on these girls to do it again, right? Absolutely, and like, you know, just to, like, contextualise it, it was, I won't call them out who did it,
Starting point is 00:55:11 but somebody posted online, you know, the Springboks could be the first team to win three World Cups in a row. Black fans have already won four. Yeah. Like, there's so many facts that I think as a country we can be so proud about internationally. Like, you know, you want to stand up for something, the team is right here. We're right here to be stood up with.
Starting point is 00:55:28 There's that amazing clip of, is it Brian Hibana, where they ask him who the leading, Rugby World Cup tri-scorer of all-timers, and he goes, Portia Woodman. And everyone goes, oh, shit, of course. And I feel like that conversation has changed. And I don't know if people are as jeed up for this World Cup as they are going to be yet, or if they've quite realised. But in 10 days' time, the Black Ferns kick off their campaign,
Starting point is 00:55:52 they're playing against Spain, and then we're into it. Absolutely into it. And why is the World Cup so important for Warms Rugby? So many World Cup, 2010, even though 6 was debatable, England is always number one. We're not even number two. We're like a close number third. Why is that?
Starting point is 00:56:08 Why is England so dominant? They, just their winning rate has been so impeccable. I mean, you know, there is the factual evidence of they went pro a long time before anybody else to. If you, like, if I'm honest, I'm only probably can say this because I'm not in the squad because I'd be too competitive to admit it. But they probably do lead the women's rugby world and their resources and everything. But it doesn't mean they are going to win this World Cup. Last World Cup, it was the same.
Starting point is 00:56:32 We weren't ranked number one. but World Cups are different. We know this. Like, if you've ever watched North Blacks at a World Cup, it's not easy and it's never the same. No. So I just, when I say,
Starting point is 00:56:42 I think the New Zealand support, the support of Altero is what is going to get the girls across the line. Like, I so mean it. How do, how, so you've been there, you've played for New Zealand, outside of New Zealand, how does the support of people back home get to the players? Like, what can you do from here
Starting point is 00:56:58 that is going to make an impactful difference on the Black Ferns at this World Cup? Hunt, that's such a great question. Look, if there's any, if you notice any particular company, business or group, prioritising Black Ferns coverage, you know, supporting messages, the players feel it. Like we do see it, especially online. If you can get your whatever groups you're in, get together, send a video,
Starting point is 00:57:21 tag the Black Ferns, watch the shows that are put in place. Like, I am working for the BBC over there. So, like, if you see anything that's relatable, share it. All coverage is going to be great Like I'm literally going to work Eight days a week over there To make sure that people realize How amazing the black friends are
Starting point is 00:57:40 Because I'm so excited for this opportunity But I'm not only black friend in the media group Everybody else is England Or you know like it's I'm in a room full of people That aren't going to be going for the black friends You have to shout the loudest So I need Altaire to shout with me
Starting point is 00:57:53 You know like this is this is a moment man Oh my God I'm so excited You just got me completely hyped for this thing So it kicks off very soon. The opening match is between England and Alona Mars USA team. That's going to be explosive and then we're into Black Ferns
Starting point is 00:58:08 and we've got our girl on the ground Ruby Toey to give us the plug here on ZEM. Absolutely like if you want a message in ZEM at any time tell Ruby to ask anything the team, I can do that and set your alarms guys. Set your alarms. I love you so much. Up the Black Fern
