Starting point is 00:00:21 Where I'm quite shook, to be honest with you. What's wrong? I'm shook. What's happened? Well, you know what's happened this afternoon. Someone in my, and I'm not going to name names because they need to, you know, you don't out someone before they out themselves. Someone in my inner sanctum is tested positive for COVID.
Starting point is 00:00:42 Oh, is it online? Yeah. Oh, Fletch has got COVID And me and him share a microphone Oh so you've been And you get so close up to that microphone as well I thought you were going to say me and him like Like yeah What?
Starting point is 00:00:54 Sorry No say it Anastasia No I thought you were going to say that Nah I'm a married man Anastasia Yeah nah that's silly It's not cheating if it's a dude though Let's call him.
Starting point is 00:01:06 Oh yeah, I need to call him to... Oh, now you're doing that. No, this is not for your admin, okay? This is for my peace of mind to know that you're okay. Yeah. Yeah. Hello?
Starting point is 00:01:18 We've got to check on him first. We've got to be kind. Fletch! I'm dying, guys. What the hell, man? What the hell? I'm not being dramatic about this. I'm dying, guys. What the hell, man? What the hell? I'm not being dramatic about this. I know.
Starting point is 00:01:29 What a surprise. I'm not at all surprised. Why aren't you surprised? Because I know what you get up to on the weekends, Carl Fletcher. I actually went for a lovely walk this last weekend and didn't do anything nefarious. How many close contacts do you have from the last seven days? I know. Honestly, I've only been hanging out with work people, one other friend, and the gym.
Starting point is 00:01:52 It's got to be the gym. I was going to say, do you make them scan in with a contact tracing app when they come in the building? It's printed out on my front door, yeah. Get a little lower back QR code. Look, people might not understand how intimate you and I actually are. That's where I'm concerned. You and I share a microphone, and that microphone lives, Matty, how far away from my mouth is it right now? A mere millimetre.
Starting point is 00:02:19 Millimetres. And just this week, Fletch, on Monday when I was in to promo the new TV show with you, we talked about how deep throat we go on the microphone. Do you remember? Yeah, I mean, sometimes you accidentally lick it. Sometimes you accidentally lick it. Or you lift and touch it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:33 And there's spittle going everywhere. I'm sorry, guys. I'm sorry. Well, everybody else that I work with, like, in the morning has all rat tested just now and they're all negative. Yeah, well, they're not sucking on the same microphone. Yeah. And obviously I'm concerned.
Starting point is 00:02:50 I should lead with love. Are you okay? Yes, yeah. No, I'm fine. I've been hoarding, like they said, to, like, you know, get food and, like, medicines and stuff. So, yeah, I'm good. I live down the road from Maddie.
Starting point is 00:03:02 So, Maddie can pop over with. And I have. I live down the road from Matty, so Matty can pop over with great music. And I have. I've reached out. I've already, as a concerned friend, said, if you need anything, I'm here for you. It was a token gesture, but I made it. So it's on record. Just in case I die so you don't feel bad.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Exactly. It's on record. You can show it at the funeral. I tried. You know you need to milk this, eh? If you're getting these offers, you need to take them. Absolutely, absolutely. Apparently, Ross Boss
Starting point is 00:03:36 is dropping off, or someone's dropping off a microphone. Oh, Ben, I think. Yeah, I'm still going to be working. Isn't that bullshit, eh? I was talking to Lucy about this. This is a once-in-a-lifetime health event, a deadly virus, and they're like, yeah, we'll get you some shit to work from home. But at least you could do it from bed, right?
Starting point is 00:03:57 Like you can literally just wake up and then plug the microphone and you're good to go. Well, yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Yeah, great idea. Yeah. No one's going to do that. I mean, I live in an apartment. I don't know what your walls are like, Matty, the microphone and you're good to go well yeah that's what i'm thinking yeah great idea yeah no one's gonna i mean i live in an apartment i don't know what your walls are like uh maddie in your apartment but i don't want to wake up the neighbors at 6 a.m with a with a chortle this is true too you're gonna have to you're gonna have to mute your laugh a little bit
Starting point is 00:04:19 just be like oh yeah something like that you'll have to do the show in the closet. Yeah, heck. That's a feedback quiz, isn't it? Okay. That'll be hard. Okay, well, we're concerned. I was saying to Matty I didn't want to out you, but then he said it's all over your social media.
Starting point is 00:04:37 You put it up. You put your rat test up. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, okay. Yeah, I wonder what you're saying. Yeah, yeah, it's up there. It's up there. And also, a lot of people, because I said that my cat was positive,
Starting point is 00:04:48 you cannot test your cat. That was a joke. The nostrils are too small, eh? Yeah. Yeah. Try sticking one of those swabs up there. Yeah, too girthy. Need a rectal swab.
Starting point is 00:05:02 Okay, well, congrats on being the first. Thank you. Are you the first Zetium announcer to go down? I think you might be. the first. Thank you. Are you the first ZM announcer to go down? I think you might be. I am. I've had a few friends get it, and they've actually been like, some of them have been taken out pretty bad. So, I mean, it's quite a serious thing.
Starting point is 00:05:14 So, touch wood, we'll be fine. Yeah. Love and light. We're thinking of you. Take care of yourself, guys. We're thinking of you. Thoughts and prayers. Thank you. Thoughts and prayers.

Starting point is 00:05:32 Think of me. I'll pour you. Now I'm going to have to do another rat test. Honestly, I did the rat test this morning, and I'm like, and my wife comes out, and she's like, you're so dramatic.
Starting point is 00:05:43 Yeah. Which I am, but at the same time, she doesn't have to do do it She doesn't know what it's like being me So don't lick that microphone Get it away from my mouth Get it away Here's the podcast everybody, enjoy What time is it?

Starting point is 00:12:11 Hey, well done, Katie. Well done, both of you. That was a great game. But, Katie, we've got 50 bucks cash coming your way, thanks to KFC. Oh, my partner's going to be stoked. One of the things I love about parents is when they, you know that they're not necessarily Super into something
Starting point is 00:12:26 But because their kids are into it They'll get amongst Yeah right And this woman, I saw this story It's brilliant, a woman in the US Really really tried Her best to do something sweet for her Daughter
Starting point is 00:12:41 Emily Bennett shared this on TikTok Quite a big mistake That her mum has made for her daughter. Okay. Emily Bennett shared this on TikTok. Quite a big mistake that her mum has made. So Emily is a really, really big fan of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Okay. Yeah. And so her mum said, great, you and I are going to go
Starting point is 00:12:58 to a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert together. Cool, mum. I'm not a big fan, but you are and I'm going to go. It's going to be a really lovely mother daughter date. How old is Emily? Emily would be in her 20s I think. I don't have an exact age
Starting point is 00:13:12 for her but yeah based on her TikTok I'd say early 20s possibly. So cool of Emily to be like honey I'm going to go with mum. I guess if mum's paying for the tickets you're like totally come along. Because you might be like I don't want to go to a gig with mum. But yeah, it's a nice bonding experience.
Starting point is 00:13:28 But because Emily's mum was the one to buy the tickets, Emily had no kind of concept of the planning or she didn't have access to the tickets or anything like that. So it wasn't until they arrived at the venue that Emily realised her mum's massive, massive
Starting point is 00:13:43 mistake. It comes down to three letters. Right. Because Emily's mum had not booked tickets to the Red Hot Chili Peppers. She'd booked tickets to these guys. Who the hell are these guys? These are the Red Hot Chili Pipers.
Starting point is 00:14:18 This is awesome. I mean. This is Avicii. They're doing Avicii. They're doing a cover of Avicii. Wake me up. And in fairness, Emily said, the Red Hot Chili Pipers go off. Yeah. Like, she said it was a VT. They're doing a cover of a VT. Wake me up. And in fairness, Emily said the Red Hot Chili Pipers go off. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Like she said it was a good time. I wonder if the Red Hot Chili Pipers do a Red Hot Chili Peppers cover in their set. Wow. She just said it wasn't exactly the concert or the experience she was expecting to get. Yeah. Broaden your horizons though. Exactly. They won a BBC, the Pipers won a BBC talent show back in 2007, so they're doing pretty well for themselves,
Starting point is 00:14:52 and now tour the world. Yeah. They're just not quite the Pipers. If she was a real Red Hot Chili Peppers fan, she would have realised that the band's not touring at the moment. Yeah, true. They literally just got back together. They've got a new song,
Starting point is 00:15:02 they'll be on tour soon, but... Maybe she was like, oh my God, my mum's, like, found a secret concert. Mum's so cool. Yeah. She knows of gigs that I don't even know about yet. I would go to a Red Hot Chili Pipers concert. Totally.
Starting point is 00:15:13 That sounds great. Yeah. Bree and Clint. What I'm about to say is very boring, but it's kind of a sign of the times at the moment. I've got some tips on how you can save money on your power bill. You know? Yeah, it does sound boring
Starting point is 00:15:30 but also it costs a living. I've seen lots of people do ones on how you can save money on gas at the moment and they're like, walk. That's not practical if you work 20k's away from your house like we do. One of them was, accelerate as if there is an unboiled egg
Starting point is 00:15:48 between your foot and the gas pedal. That's how softly you should press the gas pedal. And aren't there silly things like wind your windows up, does something? Yeah, that does it. There's drag in the car or something. This one specifically is for how to save money on power. A guy called James LePage. He works for Consumer New Zealand. or something. This one specifically is for how to save money on power. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:05 A guy called James LePage. He works for Consumer New Zealand. So he's impartial. You know you can trust him. He's published some tips on how to save money on your power bill. I thought we'd go through them
Starting point is 00:16:15 and we could say, yeah, that's a good idea or no, I'm not willing to do that. Give, first one, give your heat pump filters a really good clean. That's easy, right?
Starting point is 00:16:23 Easy. Get in there. He said if you do that, your heat pump won't have to work as hard and it won't cost as much. Easy. Turn off unused appliances. Oh, I'm terrible for this.
Starting point is 00:16:33 They all use a small amount of power while on standby. So add all of these devices together and the cost can add up. So he's saying like, go around the back of your toaster after you make some toast, switch it off. Make a cup of tea, switch the kettle off.
Starting point is 00:16:46 You finish watching the TV, don't just turn it off at the remote, turn it off at the wall. I mean, great idea, but who's really going to do that? And how much are you going to say that's what I want to know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:56 And do you know what would annoy me is I'd go and then I'd switch on the kettle to boil water and then 10 minutes later, I'd be like, why is the kettle not boiling? Why isn't my toast popped? Me too. It switched off at the wall, that's why.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Pain in the arse, I'm not doing that one. Set the thermostat on your heater or heat pump to the right temperature. He says that you should be plenty warm with the thermostat set to between 18 and 20 degrees. Anything above that is too much. You're wasting
Starting point is 00:17:25 power. Well, so says you. We've got very set settings and it never changes. Also, I'm not sure if this James LePage guy has a girlfriend or a wife because they always want it warmer. Guys always want it colder.
Starting point is 00:17:41 But as a rule, he's saying nothing over 20 degrees. Okay, I can buy that. God, as someone that lives in Auckland, it gets very cold over winter. Yeah, as Aucklanders. Burra, winter is coming. Ventilate. You don't need to use the dehumidifier
Starting point is 00:17:57 if you open the windows. Okay, yeah. But you kind of run the dehumidifier in winter when it's too cold to open the window. But yeah, sure. Break out the slow cooker. He says if you use your slow cooker, you can make dinner for as little as 50 cents worth of power.
Starting point is 00:18:12 Okay, I'll definitely say you see that one. I love a slow cooker. Yeah. I didn't think that any appliance used more than 50 cents, though, to do a dinner. No, I wouldn't have thought so either. Like, does the microwave use more than 50 cents? Surely not. Surely not. Not for a quick kind of two minutes
Starting point is 00:18:28 in the microwave. Use the clothesline, dry your clothes for free outside. Yeah, that makes sense. Can you do that in your apartment or do you have the body corporate come to you and go, you're making the building look shabby. No, we're not allowed to do that.
Starting point is 00:18:44 But it does, it goes on the you know making the building look shabby. No, we're not allowed to do that. But it goes on the dryer rack. Yeah, right. This is the most controversial one that he's got. He says, beware of how often you use your air fryer. He says that air fryers suck a whole lot of power. He says that a large air fryer can cost you up to $25 a year to use. You're screwed, mate. It's like $2 a month to run your air fryer.
Starting point is 00:19:10 All of these things make sense. They're all just quite annoying. Totally. Right? I don't know where we're going to save money and I don't know where we're going to find it. But there's certain things where you just go, you probably do it for a week and then you go,
Starting point is 00:19:21 fuck, I'll be arsed with this. You're like, you're not going to let me use my air fryer? Screw you. I'd rather starve. But there you go. Those are the tips if you need them, everybody. Let's get the latest. Dean's here.
Starting point is 00:19:40 The latest on Bella Hadid, Dean, is that she hates her nose. She hates her new nose, actually, yes. She's done an interview with Vogue magazine. A lot of people talk about and post about on social media the alleged change in shape of her face. One thing to remember, though, a lot of makeup can really change and contour. A lot of that can be makeup. But a lot of people talk about the fact that her face has changed.
Starting point is 00:20:04 She has now talked about the fact that her face has changed. She says she regrets not keeping, quote, the nose of my ancestors. And, you know, and she has, her look has changed. This is a wild, fun fact. I interviewed her on her very first big major magazine shoot at her dad's house, probably about 2013 it was. And I have a photo of her and I on a pair of steps. You wouldn't even recognize her. It's way down on Instagram among all those shirtless, thirsty dudes. But
Starting point is 00:20:31 it is there. And she looks so different back then. And she really has become much more angular and she's got like really high cheekbones now and things like that. And she's come out saying that she regrets it. She said, you know, here's the thing though. Her sister at the time, Gigi, was a huge model. She'd just done the Tom Ford campaign. She was in the guest ads. And so there was a lot of pressure on her and her mom, Yolanda Hadid, also a massive model in her day. So I think there was a lot of pressure on her about her looks. And she said, as she said in the interview, it brought up insecurities, anxiety, depression and body image issues. So yeah, was I think difficult. Yeah although now
Starting point is 00:21:06 I see people are kind of slamming Yolanda her mum for allowing Bella to get a nose job when she was just a teenager. Yeah that's very true as well. It's nice to hear a story of someone saying they wish they could go back to how it was. Totally. You know and saying I regret the modifications that I did. Especially
Starting point is 00:21:22 in her position because girls will listen to her. Totally It's happening a bit. Courtney Cox has just reversed a bunch of the plastic surgery that she had as well, and some stars are going, you know what, I want to go back to the real me look. But can you really go back? No. That's the issue, right? Not really.
Starting point is 00:21:37 Not really, eh? Yeah. It's like when you crash your Lexus, right? They can patch it up and fix it, but it kind of doesn't really look exactly the same. There it is, another relatable reference. So relatable. From our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy. You and I are smack bang in the middle, I reckon,
Starting point is 00:21:57 of the age where people are hosting dinner parties. Yes. Dinner parties are the way we socialise now. Dinner parties at our age are BYOs. Absolutely. That's the are the way we socialise now. Dinner parties at our age are BYOs. Absolutely. That's the new BYO, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:08 Because someone's got kids or someone doesn't want to go out in public. Yeah. And you can go for a polite amount of time and then be like, I've got to drive home.
Starting point is 00:22:19 Also, what's nice about a dinner party is you get to see somebody's house. Yes. And you get an insight into how they're living. Yeah. Remember you and Ryan came over for a dinner party at ours and we had
Starting point is 00:22:27 a power cut? Yes, we did. And we ended up having to have a candlelight dinner. Super romantic. That was delightful. And your wife is a very good cook as well. Isn't she? Yeah. But dinner parties can be slightly stressful because there's a lot to organise and you've got to plan a lot and you want to make sure you're putting your best foot forward.
Starting point is 00:22:43 But as the host, that's the job, right? That's what you do. You cook the dinner, you organise everything and the people just turn up, maybe with a nice bottle of wine or something like that to help. Maybe a dessert. Maybe a dessert.
Starting point is 00:22:56 But this woman has gone to a, not a BYO, to a- Dinner party. Dinner party at her friend's house and was shocked when her friend after the dinner party sent her a Venmo request for $40. What? She charged her for a dinner?
Starting point is 00:23:16 Her friend said, I cooked and it cost me a lot of money to put this dinner party together. So I would like $40 for the dinner that I've cooked for you. Thank you. Cheeky. Isn't that crazy? So she said, she sent out a tweet and said,
Starting point is 00:23:31 got invited to someone's place for dinner and they charged me for it. That's weird, right? And the Twitter thread went off. I would say 99% of people saying that is so bizarre. So bizarre. If you said up front, hey, let's have dinner at mine,
Starting point is 00:23:48 I don't have any money, should we all chip in and I'll cook something awesome? Different. To get people to come around, eat and then charge them afterwards, that's weird. Totally. It's more than rude, it's weird.
Starting point is 00:23:58 Yeah, someone replied and said, it's beyond weird, it's sociopathic. And it is. What a strange thing to do. Also, I'm just doing a bit of quick math. Say she invited six people around for the dinner party and charged them each $40. That's $240.
Starting point is 00:24:13 What did she cook that could have cost $240? $40 is like a nice dinner out. And a glass of wine. And a glass of wine. Awkward. She said, this makes me not want to accept offerings in the future my southern grandma is rolling in her grave yeah um by the way uh we meaning to say
Starting point is 00:24:33 there's um i just seem to be for the dinner i've got an invoice for you um isn't technology amazing i'm always blown away by just advancements in technology and what it can do for you. Yeah. This one's not a crazy advancement, but it is amazing how many people are able to basically have eyes on anything and everything these days by having security cameras in and around their house, in the office, whatever it might be.
Starting point is 00:25:01 I always think it would be a terrible time to be a criminal at the moment. True. Because there's cameras everywhere yeah and when something happens quite often like in the States
Starting point is 00:25:09 it's very common to have a security camera at the front of your house and communities like come together and they pull their footage and they can see everything they can get a 360 degree view
Starting point is 00:25:18 of what happened in the street the night before so if you're a criminal right now our hearts go out to you like we're thinking of you at this time.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Oh, security cameras, petrol prices, everything is going against the criminal. It's so hard. It's hard to be a criminal in this day and age. But I saw this amazing video of a guy who had gone on holiday, but wanted to check in and see if everything was okay in his house.
Starting point is 00:25:43 Yeah. So he went back and kind of looked at the security camera footage in his home from the last kind of 24 hours. Yeah. And oh my God, the things he saw. Right. In his own house. In his own house.
Starting point is 00:25:55 Yeah. Because he lives on a farm. Yeah. And the farm animals, honestly, like a scene out of Babe, Pig in the City, had banded together and had broken down his front door. And next thing you know, like some sort of comedic sitcom, there's a goat, there's a donkey, there's a horse, there's chickens, there's sheep,
Starting point is 00:26:19 all back to back to back to back, walking straight through the front door. That's amazing. Brilliant, right? Like the front door. That's amazing. Brilliant, right? Like the animals have gone, this is our chance. Exactly. We sleep outside every goddamn day.
Starting point is 00:26:30 He's on holiday. He doesn't need it. Let's go in there. Let's see what's so good about inside. Exactly. Let's rummage through the cupboards. Let's go through the pantry. Let's sleep in his bed.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Make ourselves at home. You know, and that to me goes, wow, those are some intelligent animals, except for the fact that they overlook the security cameras. Totally. Busted.
Starting point is 00:26:47 Yeah, stupid. Although, stupid horse. The guy's on holiday so what do you do? Well, some cameras have the ability
Starting point is 00:26:55 for you to, they have a little microphone in them and a little speaker and some cameras you can go on them like a ring doorbell or a baby monitor
Starting point is 00:27:01 you can go on and you can talk so he could get on there and he could go, get out of here you bloody mongrel. And the horse would go, yo, who was that? Is he here? I swear to God he was on holiday.
Starting point is 00:27:12 Or the chicken just looks up and is like, what are you going to do about it? I know you're not here. Your Hilux is not in the driveway. So I thought there must be other people out there who have seen some fantastic things on their security cameras. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:27 Maybe you've left your dog at home and you wanted to see what the dog's done and they're doing something crazy during the day. Maybe you've seen someone enter your house that wasn't meant to. You know, we've talked about this on this show before. A friend of mine got one of those pet cameras in her house so that she could see her dog
Starting point is 00:27:43 while she was at work. She caught her boyfriend cheating on her at home on the pet cam. No! She dialed in to see what the dog was doing and saw and heard on the pet camera that he had another girl over at their house that they purchased together and it's their dog
Starting point is 00:27:59 and that she saw on the security camera him cheating on her. That is wild. Horrific, eh? Wild. What a way to find out. In your lunch break, you just tune in to see what bloody Millie the Labradoodle is doing, and you get served that.
Starting point is 00:28:13 Well, that's one thing you could see. Imagine the microphone on that. What? Get out of it, you bloody mongrel. I like Andrew Diles at him. Text us to 9696. We want to know what you have seen on your security camera footage. I've never seen Tate McRae before.
Starting point is 00:28:30 I don't know what she looks like. She sounds tiny. Like petite. Yeah, like sounds like a very small person to me. Do you get that vibe? Have you ever heard someone has a short voice and a tall voice? I know exactly what you mean. No, those bitches
Starting point is 00:28:46 don't help can't tell how tall she is. No. She's three iHeartRadio logos tall. That's all we can take from that. Wish there was
Starting point is 00:28:54 some security footage of her. Oh, good segue into what we're talking about here. She's five foot eight. Oh, yeah, she's totally normal height.
Starting point is 00:29:02 Yeah, she's not tiny at all. Oh, I take it back. Sorry, tape maker. Yeah. Sorry yeah sorry hey i saw this amazing video online this is a big i heart radio i saw an amazing video online of someone who was on holiday went to check their security camera footage and literally saw about 20 farm animals walking one after each other inside his house. Like Noah's Ark. We're talking goat, donkey, horse, chickens, sheep. Probably a pig.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Probably a pig. Can you imagine how hard you'd have to go with the rug doctor when you got home? And can you imagine if you didn't have security footage and you got home and the inside of your house looked like a stable and you were like, what the hell happened to my house? Yeah, at least he has an answer for it. At least he knows.
Starting point is 00:29:53 And you go and ask the animals and you're like, do you guys know who? No, no, no. Why would you ask us? We were outside the whole time. Bro, what are you suggesting? Bro, that's so rude. How dare you? The horse is like, I cannot believe suggesting? Bro, that's so rude. How dare you? I bet you the horse is like, I cannot believe you would insinuate something like that.
Starting point is 00:30:12 You laugh, but it's more common than you think. Jenny's had a similar experience with horses. Hi, Jenny. Hi, how you doing? Good. So what have you seen on your security camera footage? Well, we got up one morning to have a look at our cameras and saw these two horses having a ball around the section. They were racing up and down our lawn
Starting point is 00:30:34 and one skidded right through a wee feijoa tree. Oh, yeah. But, oh, yes, no, they had such a good time. Cute. Left a few holes on the lawn, but oh my goodness, it was a bit funny, I've never seen a horse in our yard before. Yeah. Because we do not have horses.
Starting point is 00:30:51 Oh, so there weren't even more horses. Where did they come from? Where do you live? Do you live on the desert road? Did you have some Kaimanawa horses just try into your section or something? Not quite, not quite. They came from about a k and a half down the road because we're on a lifestyle block.
Starting point is 00:31:13 And so, yeah, I might have expected cows on our lawn, but not horses. Jeez, country life, eh, Jen? I know. Those are some holes you had to fix up there. I know. All right, well had to fix up there I know Alright well thank god for security cameras Thanks Jen Someone texted and said
Starting point is 00:31:28 Once I checked my cameras To see if they were still working And I got a huge fright Because I saw someone standing in my living room Oh creepy A few seconds later I realised it was me Because you're looking down at your phone And you're like
Starting point is 00:31:42 Oh there's a guy in my lounge Oh wait It's me That guy got a fright too Cam's here Hey Cam Because you're looking down at your phone and you're like, oh, there's a guy in my lounge. Oh, wait. Oh, wait. It's me. That guy got a fright too. Cam's here. Hey, Cam. G'day.
Starting point is 00:31:50 How you going? Good. What did you see on the security cams, Cam? I was at work, got a notification saying there was movement at home on the driveway. Had a look and my partner's friend was doing some indoor gardening on the driveway. Wait. Wait. Your partner's friend was having an indoor gardening session. Indoor gardening meaning.
Starting point is 00:32:11 It's our code word on this show. Really? Who were they gardening with? Some guys she'd just been on a date with. Oh, right. Not with your partner. No, it's not. Why were they doing it on your driveway?
Starting point is 00:32:25 I don't know. I was from Glenham and couldn't wait to get home, I guess. Okay, now I'm going to ask you this man-to-man, Kim. How long did you watch the security footage for? It was a few seconds before I realised what was happening and then by the time I did the guy's work, we were quite interested. Yeah, you've got to monitor the cameras, right? Yeah, well, that's it.
Starting point is 00:32:46 Were they in a car? No, the bonnet. They were on the bonnet of the car? Was it night time or day time? Middle of the day. Was anybody home at your house? No. Jeez Louise, that's brazen.
Starting point is 00:33:00 Skyrockets in flight, afternoon delight. Yeah, all right. Well, good work, Cam. Keep those cameras, mate. You never know what flight afternoon delight. Yeah, all right. Well, good work, Cam. Keep those cameras, mate. You never know what's going on. That's good community. Yeah, it's good community watch from you, actually. Keeping up to date with the news just became a little easier.
Starting point is 00:33:17 As it heralds new podcasts, the front page is your short, sharp daily news podcast. Join me, Damien Venuto, every weekday morning as I chat with journalists and newsmakers going behind the headlines to break down what you need to know on the biggest news stories of the day. Listen to the front page
Starting point is 00:33:35 at nzherald.co.nz slash podcasts and follow us on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts. Brie and Clint. Brie's been away for, how long have you been here, Matty? Three weeks? Four weeks.
Starting point is 00:33:48 Four weeks. Four weeks. Bree's been gone for four whole weeks. And when Bree's away, we don't end up talking to Mama Di as much, which is a bloody shame. And we should. So let's get her back on the show. Welcome to the show, our favourite Mama Di.
Starting point is 00:34:01 Hey, Mama Di. Hi, guys. How you been going? I've been listening, but Di. Hey, Mama Di. Hi, guys. How have you been going? I've been listening, but not this week because I've been babysitting all week. Have you? How have you been? Yeah, we're good. How are you?
Starting point is 00:34:13 Yeah, really, really good. The weather's starting to cool off here and we've had lots of rain and I survived the apple and grape. I took three days to get over it, but yeah, I got out the other side. The apple and grape is the big boozy festival that happens in Stanthorpe, isn't it, Mama Di? It's pretty big, but we're down in numbers this year
Starting point is 00:34:34 for obvious reasons. It just means more apple and grape juice for you, right? Oh, look, mate, it was flowing big time. Hey, we haven't got you on here for no reason. Did you hear the news that's come out of New Zealand today? No, I was just talking to Ben and normally I listen to you guys and I have been listening to the show
Starting point is 00:34:54 and Maddy, you have been fantastic. Oh, thank you. Great to hear of your absolutely fantastic news as well. So sweet. Congratulations. So congratulations. Thank you. I'll expect an invite in the mail at some time.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Well, this news actually bodes well for that, Mama Di. Out of the New Zealand government today, they have announced that the international border will reopen to Australians who want to come to New Zealand from the 12th of April. Oh, my God. Are you kidding me? I hope this isn't a GF. No, it's not a GF.
Starting point is 00:35:33 We would never do that to you. Because we know how much you miss your daughter. Oh, are you kidding? 12th of April. So in less than a month, you're good to go to pop over here for a visit if you want to, Mama Di. Well, I might have to get off the phone
Starting point is 00:35:50 and go and make a booking. You might have to because it's going to get packed over here. Oh, yes. And I was planning to, we were planning to come, but now we can come earlier, which is fantastic. That's great news. I think I'll vote just entering, no problem at fantastic. Oh, that's great news.
Starting point is 00:36:05 I think I'll vote Jacinta in no problem at all. Yeah, this is the thing. She's not having a good time in the polls. No, she needed to do something. She's starting to give everybody what they want. On a serious note, what's it been like for you as a parent with a child in a different country and not like for love or money
Starting point is 00:36:23 being able to visit that person for the last, I don't know, what has it been, like eight, nine months? The thing is, Clint, I've absolutely missed her like anything. And the problem that we had is initially when she went and, you know, she's been away quite a bit off and on, but you could always go when you wanted to. Yeah. Like if someone was sick or if I was needed or she needed, if I needed her, we could, you know,
Starting point is 00:36:57 oh yeah, we'll just jump on a plane. You're only three hours away kind of thing, right? Yeah, literally. And I mean, it was closer for me to come to Auckland than it was to go to Gosford down near Sydney. And so that kind of was always at the back of your mind and of course I used to go and see her at least three or four times a year and her come home at least that often.
Starting point is 00:37:19 And the biggest issue was is these big milestones in your family that everyone has had, you know, with children being born and now Jonty's just, all he wants to do is watch you and Brianna fish. I put that video on the other, oh, a few weeks ago. Oh, of us fishing down in Wanaka. Is that his favourite? Yes. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:37:42 Okay, yeah. His favourite video of all time is you kissing the fish or getting a slap. Yeah. Getting a slap maybe, that's the one. And it's those things, but I keep thinking we're a lot better off than the majority of people who have had a lot bigger issues happening in their families.
Starting point is 00:38:01 Yeah, but it doesn't help when there's that separation from someone that you love so much. So we get it. We totally get why this would be such a big deal. Oh, it's just absolutely awesome and I think for want of COVID or whatever, let's just open up, guys. Well, we are. We are.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Yeah, that's the news. We are. So we actually haven't been able to get hold of Bree yet because she's busy doing her secret TV show. If you want to text her and break the news to her, maybe you could text her your flights once you've booked them. We'll leave that news to you to be able to share to Bree. Okay, Mama Di? Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:38:38 But there's one condition. I think because she's been away and that's her choice, I think the three of us should take over the show for a while. Done. I think, you know. Me, you and Maddie. Yes. I think it would be fantastic.
Starting point is 00:38:53 You get over here, mate, and the seat is ready for you, okay? That's Mum and Di. Bree's mum with the good news that Aussie's allowed back into the country from the 12th of April. We'll see you soon. Love you, mate. Good to talk. Love you, guys. Have a talk. Love you, guys.
Starting point is 00:39:06 Have a great day. It's time to Google down. Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down? What the hell? I think Google's actually... Our weekly quest to find the country's greatest Googler. Is it going to be you, Amelia? Good afternoon.
Starting point is 00:39:25 Hi. You're playing for 50 KFC chicken dollars this afternoon. Would you say that you're good at Googling or good at typing or good at, I don't know, computers? I'm pretty fast at typing. Pretty fast at typing. Okay, that's going to help you. You need to tell us what we're Googling on. Is it a phone or a computer this afternoon?
Starting point is 00:39:45 Phone. Phone. All right. Okay us what we're Googling on. Is it a phone or a computer this afternoon? Phone. Phone. All right. Okay, Maddie. I'm ready. Anastasia and myself will use a phone. Ben will run the Google down with Bree being away. Ben, we've got a theme today.
Starting point is 00:39:55 Yep. Today's theme is to celebrate the fact our show is interviewing the Channing Tatum next Monday about his new film, Dog. Yes. All questions will be animal related. Oh, okay. Doesn't really help much. 101 dumb questions.
Starting point is 00:40:10 That's a negative point to Anastasia. She starts on a negative one. Fair. That's fair for doing that. So is everyone else ready for the first question? I'm ready. Okay, here we go, guys. Just call out an answer if you know what it is, Amelia.
Starting point is 00:40:21 You don't have to buzz in. Just yell out the answer. What's the biggest breed of dog? A simple nut. Great Dane. Wrong. Angus Mastiff. Anastasia is now on zero. Angus Mastiff. Well done, Anastasia.
Starting point is 00:40:38 Welcome to the same. Welcome to the playing field. I took a stab in the dark. Thank you. And you are allowed to guess. You're allowed to yell out your answer. Here we go. Your second question. What's the loudest animal in the world? The blue whale.
Starting point is 00:40:54 Blue whale. Anastasia did get that. She's on one. Is a blue whale an animal? Yes. Yes. Is it? It's a fish. Oh, it's. Yes. Is it? It's a fish.
Starting point is 00:41:06 Oh, it's a mammal. Is that why it counts? We're going to go straight to the third question. I'm on negative one now, eh? Yeah, you are. Okay, here we go. Your third question for Google Down. How fast can an elephant run?
Starting point is 00:41:22 40 kilometres an hour. Oh, no. Anastasia's got it. So it's about now that I... There's a Thai restaurant called Fast Elephant and all I got was that. It's about now that I would have pantsed you if I hadn't said that stupid thing at the start.
Starting point is 00:41:36 Oh, she's getting cocky. Pride comes before a fall. Oh, how well with that. The last point. Come on, Amelia. We're all playing for you, okay? We're all playing last point wins. If Maddie or I get a point here, it playing for you. We're all playing last point wins.
Starting point is 00:41:46 If Matty or I get a point here, it goes to you. So we're going to beat Anastasia. Let's do it. You've got to play too, Amelia. Yeah. All right, here we go, guys. How many Kiwis are left in the world?
Starting point is 00:42:00 68,000. 68,000. Clint's got it. Amelia's got it. That's a point for Amelia. Okay. So we equal Amelia and Anastasia now. Matty's like, I think we're going to go to Amelia. Yeah, yeah, our points go to Amelia.
Starting point is 00:42:14 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, good. Okay. Two to Anastasia, one to Amelia. Here we go. Your next question. How large is the albatross's wingspan? Up to 11 feet.
Starting point is 00:42:28 35 metres. That's a point to Maddie, which is a point to Amelia. Yes! We're tied up, guys. We're all tied up. This is the decider. Here we go. Three against one.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Remember when Anastasia was talking all that shit? Yeah, good one. I got three points. All right, here we go. Your last question, team. What dog does Channing Tatum have in the movie Dog? Oh, God. Belgian Mammalinas.
Starting point is 00:42:56 There's a lot of yelling going on. Belgian Mellinos. Yeah, that's correct. Anastasia got the point. Yes! The evil Anastasia wins again. I had a shocker. I'm not evil.
Starting point is 00:43:08 I'm nice. Amelia, you get 50 KFC chicken dollars, but not the title of New Zealand's greatest Googler. Well done. Thank you. There we go. If you want to go and see that Channing Tatum movie, Dog, by the way, it's out this week.
Starting point is 00:43:20 And you can score a double pass if you text DOG to 9696. You might win yourself one that way and yeah Channing's on the show on Monday I love my mum she's so sweet she's like the glue of our family she's your matriarch
Starting point is 00:43:37 she's the rock she holds everything together can you smell what mum is cooking sorry when you said she was the wrong... Sorry, that was a dad joke. That was a bad joke. But I pity that. Baft. Well, thank you. I appreciate it. Keeps the show moving.
Starting point is 00:43:55 Back to your mum being awesome. She's amazing. She does everything for us all the time. Sends us care packages if we're sick. Still, we get a Christmas stocking, for God's sake, when we go home. Yeah. So she's amazing. And occasionally she'll send us really sweet, thoughtful gifts.
Starting point is 00:44:11 You know, obviously on our birthdays and things like that. But every now and then we'll just get one in the mail. What, out of the blue? Yeah, because she's thought of us. Really? Yep. Oh, nah, she's doing too much. She's making other mums look bad.
Starting point is 00:44:22 She's amazing. She's going overboard. Yeah. But the other day I... Well, so you don't need anything. No, I don't. No, I don mums look bad. She's amazing. She's going overboard. But the other day I... So you don't need anything. No, I don't. You double income, no kids. You're a dink over here. Inner city dink. You don't need
Starting point is 00:44:32 any gifts. Oh, but you best believe I'll open the packet and it'll rise. So the other day I did just that. I got a gift from mum. Opened it up. It was beautifully wrapped. For no reason. I haven't missed your birthday or anything. your birthday no no no last year
Starting point is 00:44:45 you're fine opened it up it was wrapped up unwrapped it it was a book oh yeah because I like to read mum loves to read
Starting point is 00:44:55 part of a book club and so she's all over what the best books are and stuff and she knows that I like to read so it was really thoughtful and then I turned it open to start reading it at nighttime when I was in bed. And I opened it up.
Starting point is 00:45:11 And on the second page, up in the top right-hand corner, it just said, Tracy McClain. And I thought, hang on. Hang on. That's your mum's name, right? That's your mum's name right? That's my mum's name Why would mum write her own name in a book that she's bought for me? Yeah how strange
Starting point is 00:45:32 That's so weird Unless she wrote the book and she's autographed it for you No my mum has not become a fiction author No okay So it turns out I just got mum's hand-me-down book. Which is
Starting point is 00:45:50 funny for a couple of reasons. Because, like, it's fine to give someone a book that you've already read. Like, it's a very normal thing to do. You go, I've bought this book. I've read it. I think you'll like it. I think you'll like it. Or even just have it. I don't re-read books. You should just have it.
Starting point is 00:46:05 But to pass it off as a gift? But to wrap it up? To pass it off as a gift. Yeah, yeah. So did you hit her up about it? No, I haven't. Have you not? No.
Starting point is 00:46:16 Oh, we should have called her. I'm too embarrassed. Do you think, oh, really? I don't want to make her feel bad. But she knows what she's done. Yeah, she knows exactly what she's done. Unless it's totally innocent and she bought two copies and she sent you the wrong one.
Starting point is 00:46:29 Possibly, or she just forgot that she'd written her name in the front cover and didn't think anything of it. Yeah, I've heard of this happening before. I have a friend who went to the NRL Grand Final one time and don't ask me why they thought this was a good gift. They bought their partner home a commemorative T-shirt from the stadium of where the NRL Grand Final was played and they wrapped it up and they gave it to her
Starting point is 00:46:56 and they said, hey babe, I bought you this back. Thanks for making it possible for me to go on the trip. Here's a gift for you. And she opened it up and she goes, this has been washed. It's like, ugh. And it turns out it was a T-shirt he bought to wear to the game and then afterwards went,
Starting point is 00:47:10 oh shit, I didn't buy her anything. So he just wrapped up the T-shirt that he purchased at the game and gave it to her as a gift. Shit gift, first of all. Terrible gift. And then if it doesn't have a tag on it, what do you think she's going to think?
Starting point is 00:47:21 I think they're going to react. You've been busted. You've been busted re-gifting. Yeah. And I know that there will be so many instances of this. People who have either re-gifted and been busted or you've busted someone re-gifting
Starting point is 00:47:35 you something. Yeah. Or you busted them giving you something you know they got for free. Totally. Like if you know they get a certain thing as like a work pick, like if you've got a friend who works for Coke and they're like, oh my god you got me a dozen blue Powerades for Christmas. How generous of you. So nice of you.
Starting point is 00:47:51 And they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, totally. I didn't just put this up in the warehouse out the back. Rat out your friend for their re-gifting stories this afternoon. Give us a call on 0800 dials at M or you can text us on 9696. It's fine. It's fine. They did it.
Starting point is 00:48:05 Yeah, and I do love you, Mum. I love you. Yeah. Just don't put your name in the cupboard next time. Work on your own. Were there like corners folded down as well? My mum got me a really thoughtful gift. She got me a book because she knows I love to read
Starting point is 00:48:19 and she's a big reader. And so she sent me a book and this was not a, here's a book, I think you'll like it, you should read it. This was a, here's a gift that I've bought for you. Only problem was when I went to start reading the book, she'd written her name in the top right-hand corner of the second page. And then wrapped it up.
Starting point is 00:48:39 And then wrapped it up. And passed it off as a genuine gift. Look, maybe she's going environmental and sustainable and not purchasing any gifts now. Or maybe the rest of your life, all of your gifts will be things from around the house. That's good for the environment. Like a half-eaten packet of biscuits or something. Yeah, or an old pillow.
Starting point is 00:48:59 Yeah. You know, just eco. Also budget savvy. True. But yeah, you've been re-gifted. And so we've been asking people, have you ever been the recipient of a re-gift or have you re-gifted something yourself?
Starting point is 00:49:13 Are you a flagrant re-gifter? Which a lot of people would be. You know, so let's get the stories. This person doesn't want to be named and we get that. We totally get it. Re-gifting is a controversial topic. Hello, Anonymous. Shota, how are you going, guys? Good. Howifting is a controversial topic. Hello, Anonymous. Kia ora.

Starting point is 00:49:41 And a month or so after, I spotted her on a community page selling it. No! So that was cool. Not. So you knew it was your stuff but you specifically knew because you could see her name, like her Facebook name or something selling it. Yeah, so it's on a
Starting point is 00:49:59 community page and it was her actual name. What a cheeky shit! Yeah, right? Right. And it wasn't just my stuff, it was some of the other stuff that she's obviously been gifted at some point too, so. So what do you do? Do you hit them up? Do you say, hey, I noticed
Starting point is 00:50:15 on the community page, you're selling the thing I bought you. Yeah, no, I'm just not going to give her any more Harry Potter merch. And just avoid the topic?

Have you ever had a magnum of champagne before? You know, those really, really big bottles of- I know exactly what you mean. No, I haven't. Have you not? I was meant to once when my sister turned 21.
Starting point is 01:00:58 Mum bought what she thought was a magnum of champagne. Yeah. And we were all very excited to crack it open and share it around. Yeah. Our family and my sister's friends. We went to crack open the bottle and then we realised it wasn't a magnum of champagne,
Starting point is 01:01:13 it was a magnum of mower beer. Oh! By mistake. I've seen the beer ones. Much cheaper than a magnum of champagne. Yeah, Mum was like, I got a really good deal on this.

Well, much like beer, there is a Magna of champagne Yeah mum was like I got a really good deal on this Yeah that's because it's beer mum Well much like beer there is a new type of Magnum
Starting point is 01:01:29 Which is about to come out Which you might be into actually I know you in a former life would have been into this Very shortly you're going to be able to get your hands On a Magnum of Vodka Cruiser As in the Vodka Cruiser Oh my god my entire teenage years just went flashing before my eyes.
Starting point is 01:01:47 The original RTD, before you were having pals, before you were having odd companies, before you were having long whites, you were having a vodka cruiser. My friend Matt's favourite vodka cruiser was the red raspberry vodka cruiser, but he'd always have too many, and then he'd vomit, but his vomit would be red, and we'd be like, oh my God, you're bleeding from inside. And he'd go'd go no i've just been drinking red vodka cruises plus he was like kind of pinging because they were full of sugar oh my god so full of sugar i mean you could get
Starting point is 01:02:14 three for twelve dollars at the lava bar in rotarua um the limited edition cruiser magnum which magnum by the way if you don't know what it is giant bottle massive do you see like peter burling spraying them off the side of the Team New Zealand boat when they win It holds 3.1 litres of vodka cruiser And when you think that a standard vodka cruiser is like 330ml That's a lot That's 11 times the amount of vodka cruisers in one bottle It comes in three very classy flavours
Starting point is 01:02:43 Wild raspberry Juicy watermelon And lush guava All great All great cruises in one bottle. It comes in three very classy flavours. Wild raspberry, juicy watermelon and lush guava. All great. All reeking of sophistication, right? I mean, I can see Peter Burling switching to... The bottles hold 11 standard
Starting point is 01:02:58 cruises and they take two bar staff to pour. I was going to say, God, imagine turning up to a BYO with a bottle of that. That's your whole night. Yeah. Chuck a straw in it. And then some. Oh yeah, and legally we have to say, God, imagine turning up to a BYO with a bottle of that. That's your whole night. Yeah. Chuck a straw in it. And then some. Oh yeah, and legally we have to say and then some. Yeah, and legally and then some. Unfortunately, they're only
Starting point is 01:03:13 making 21 of these. They're limited edition to celebrate Vodka Cruises' 21st birthday and they're only available to Australians. Oh bugger. Which I think is bullshit. That's so rude. So rude. So rude. I helped keep Vodka Cruises in business when I was a teenager. they're only available to australians which i think is bullshit it's so rude so rude so rude so i helped keep vodka cruises in business when i was a teenager the thing about it is though
Starting point is 01:03:32 surely a a cruiser of magnum if it only holds 11 cruisers should only be the same price as a box of cruisers yeah right it's the same amount if anything it should be cheaper because there's less bottles in there exactly yeah just a marketing idea for you if any of the liquor companies are out there. We'd buy them. We'd buy a couple. They'd go good on the table at Maddie's wedding.
