Starting point is 00:10:49 It's great on a hangover. I wonder how it is on COVID. You should check it out. Hopefully your taste buds are working, right? Yeah, yeah. Actually, it's cash as well, not just KFC chicken dollars, so spend it on whatever the hell you want. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:11:01 Treat yourself, Grace. Brie and Clint. Maddie, you've done a lot of live TV crosses in your time. Some good, some bad. I was going to say some very memorable ones too. Didn't you break into Government House one time? Yeah, I jumped the fence once. That's right.
Starting point is 00:11:15 That's where the Prime Minister lives. Yes. And I was broadcasting live from outside there for a completely different reason. It was just a random news story that I was reporting on and the host of Breakfast at the time. You may have heard of him, Paul Henry. We got talking about how low the fence was
Starting point is 00:11:32 and he suggested that someone could easily jump over the fence. I'm highly, highly susceptible to peer pressure. And so when he suggested I see if someone could, in fact, jump over the fence, I did. Of course, why not? Turns out they don't love it in fact jump over the fence, I did. Of course, why not? Turns out they don't love it when you jump over the Prime Minister's fence. Absolutely not. And I almost got arrested on live television.
Starting point is 00:11:52 You found a chink in their armour. You found a flaw in the security system. The elite security system. Actually, there's a lot of protests in Wellington at the moment. Let's not talk about security failures in government houses. My advice is not to do it. Good. This is a completely legal, completely innocent live TV cross fail,
Starting point is 00:12:11 but it's cute. There's a guy who reports for the ABC in America. His name is Miles Harris, and he seems like he's relatively new. Right. Like, I don't imagine you being on TV is still a novelty for your mum, right? No, she's over it. No, she doesn't even watch anymore.
Starting point is 00:12:30 No, she's over it. This still seems like it's an exciting thing for his mum. So this is Miles Harris lining up his big live television cross to the ABC network. He's in Ohio when somebody he knows drives into shot. Take a listen. Did you record that? Hi, D'Angelo. Hi, baby. D'Angelo is the cameraman. She's saying hi to everybody.
Starting point is 00:13:08 Look, I get it. If your kid has worked this hard to get on TV and finally he's making his debut, you're proud. You're proud, yeah. You're a proud parent. She just needed to drive on the other side of the camera. She needed to drive around the back of the camera. She drove straight into the shot. Hi, baby.
Starting point is 00:13:26 But it's cute. My kids ever get on TV? That will be me. I'll be there. Oh, my God. That's my kid. I made them. I made them.
Starting point is 00:13:36 I made them. That's me. Cute. Bree and Clint. COVID is absolutely blasting us at the moment. It's everywhere, mate. You can't escape the thing. I'm sick of talking about it.
Starting point is 00:13:49 It doesn't mean that has anything to do with the, like, it doesn't matter if you're sick of it. There's 12,000 cases today. They're literally sick with it. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. We're sick of it. Some people are sick with it.
Starting point is 00:14:00 It's going to get really tricky for businesses and employees and bosses around the country. A little bit easier with the changes to like close contacts. They're now only household contacts, right? Yeah. But still, I mean, 12,000 cases today. So many people are getting COVID.
Starting point is 00:14:19 That means so many households are going to have to isolate. We're still four or five weeks away from the peak as well. So what does that do to workplaces around the country? Some restaurants in Auckland have begun closing their doors. The very fancy Prego restaurant in Ponsonby, or as Matty calls it, the local, closed its doors because they can't staff it at the moment. There's a story today about a cafe in Tauranga
Starting point is 00:14:44 where customers have actually pitched in to keep the doors open by doing the dishes. And joining us on the phone from Tauranga's Mereterano Cafe is Jo Brown. Hi, Jo. Hi, how are you? Good. How are you doing, Jo?
Starting point is 00:14:59 God, what a time, right? Oh, it is absolutely crazy. Absolutely. You are joking, right? Your customers are not doing dishes for you, are they? They actually are. It was really weird the first day they came out and put all my tables out on the footpath and one just grabbed his pinny and went out the back and started doing dishes. And I'm like, no, you don't have to do that, buddy. And he's like, I want to do it. And people were clearing tables.
Starting point is 00:15:28 Customers were clearing tables. That's incredible. Hey, and I saved wages. Yeah. How many staff are you down by at the moment, Jo? 12 out of 16. So you have 16 employees, and 12 of them are currently isolating. They were isolating until the changes happened at midnight last night.
Starting point is 00:15:50 So you got them back? I've got all of them back except the chef that had COVID. Oh, he got the COVID. Yeah, right. He got COVID. So basically he got the COVID and wiped out all of the Saturday, Sunday staff. Yeah. Jo, that says so much about your business though, that the customers,
Starting point is 00:16:09 because there are so many cafes where you go in, you order your coffee, you leave, that's all you think about. But these customers clearly care about you guys a lot. Yeah, I guess I've been here for nearly 20 years and there's probably 50 people that come seven days a week, twice a day. Wow. Yeah, so it's a very local base
Starting point is 00:16:33 and I guess we are like a family. Well, they're proving that, for sure. But I give them shit too because the dishwasher, the dishwasher was like talking to the customers and I'm like, mate, that is not where the dishes are. Are you cracking the whip on your free labour, are you, Jo? He was leaning, and I said, yeah, got time to lean, got time to clean.
Starting point is 00:16:56 You're bloody brilliant. I've been thinking about ways that you can pay these people, because obviously times are really tough, and you're up against the wall at the moment. Have you thought about maybe giving them, next time they come in, give them an extra stamp on their coffee card? Oh. You know?
Starting point is 00:17:11 If I'm paying, they're paying. I love it, Jo. You're ruthless. You're a savvy businesswoman. That's a compliment. A savvy businesswoman. You guys are close. No, it's, yeah, sorry.
Starting point is 00:17:25 The Paul Rutherford that was doing the dishes, I said to him today, on a serious note, can I please buy you lunch? And he got quite snotty and said absolutely not. Like he got, he did not want anything for free. And internally I said, perfect, great scenario. Yeah, you're a few because I didn't actually want to buy you lunch. Hey, Joe., I said, perfect. Great scenario. Yeah, you're a few because I didn't actually want to buy you lunch.
Starting point is 00:17:47 Hey, Jo. To be honest, no. Yeah, great people. And like Maddie said, it says a lot about you guys as well. So well done on running such a place that people actually want to chip in to get you through. And we hope that-
Starting point is 00:18:00 Thank you very much. It's like there's lots more to come. And we hope you and all the other cafes, because we can't survive without our coffee and our piece of cake in the morning, you know? So you've got to get through. We really appreciate it. Perfect. Thank you very much.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Hey, Jo, just quickly, would you hire them? Absolutely not. Bree and Clint. Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest. This is one of those Simpsons predicts stories. They're everywhere. Yeah, they've had some really, really good ones,
Starting point is 00:18:31 like Trump becoming president. Some people say they predicted the iPod as well on my phone. This one is the latest one that people are saying the Simpsons managed to predict. The war between the Ukraine and Russia. Wow. So this is an episode saying the Simpsons managed to predict, the war between the Ukraine and Russia. Wow. So this is an episode of The Simpsons from 1998 called Simpsontide. And the scene that I'm about to play you that they're saying predicted the war
Starting point is 00:18:54 is where there's a United Nations meeting and the person who is the Russian ambassador to the United Nations says they want to bring back the Soviet Union. Have a listen. The Soviet Union will be pleased to offer amnesty to your wayward vassal. The Soviet Union? I thought you guys broke up. Yes, that's what we wanted you to think.
Starting point is 00:19:17 I mean, it's pretty good. Yeah. But at the same time, who didn't predict a war between the Ukraine and Russia? True, although it was in the late 90s. I mean, it wasn't like... 1998, yeah. It wasn't like it was six months ago. Maybe then you could go, well, obvious.
Starting point is 00:19:35 And when you see it, it involves tanks, and it's the same as a lot of the imagery you're seeing on the news at the moment. So I don't know, maybe The Simpsons did predict Russia invading the Ukraine. Who knows? So good. Yeah.'t know, maybe The Simpsons did predict Russia invading the Ukraine. Who knows? So good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:46 Not the war, The Simpsons. Not Putin. No. There's the latest. Brie and Clint. Can be tough being single, right? Totally. I mean, it's been a while since, well, you especially were single.
Starting point is 00:20:00 But, you know, if you're flying solo and you need something done that requires maybe like a two-person job or just something you're not very good at, who do you call on? We talked about this earlier in the week, even just making the bed. Yeah. Like if you've got a queen-size bed and you've got to put a fitted sheet on, you don't understand your own privilege if you're in a couple and you make the bed together.
Starting point is 00:20:24 Running from one side to the other, constantly. That's reason enough to get shacked out. Exactly. I've said this before, the real reason people get into relationships, somebody to make the bed with. Totally. And so that every now and then someone else empties the dishwasher. Yeah, true.
Starting point is 00:20:41 Because isn't that the most painful job? I hate it. You open it and it's full, but it's clean. And then you just close the lid and you go, I'm going to pretend like I haven't seen this. Well, Nicole Peaver from New York is single. And she needed some shelves installed in her apartment. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:02 Yeah, she wanted like a bookshelf. Okay. On the wall. So she got the bookshelf ready to go, but they were like on brackets on the wall. Yeah. Not a job she was willing to take on herself? No. So she asked a handyman, she put the word out to a handyman
Starting point is 00:21:18 to see if someone could come and do it for her. Yeah. And I said that like it's a job I'd be willing to do myself. I'm not, it's not. Yeah, I did. I'd get a guy on. And I say that like it's a job I'd be willing to do myself. I'm not. It's not. Yeah, I'd get a guy on. When I was single, I had a mirror like a full length mirror that
Starting point is 00:21:32 sat on the floor of my wardrobe forever. It was meant to be wall mounted. Yes. Right, I got it. I just didn't trust myself. No. And neither did Nicole. So she thought, well, I'll see if a handyman can come and do it. And a handyman quoted her $200 to come and hang these shelves. Whoa, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:48 And she's not, you know, she does fine for herself, but she was like, I'm not willing to spend that much money on these shelves. Yeah. So instead she went to Tinder. And she thought, well, I can get two things possibly out of this. I can find a guy to go and have a nice dinner with, and then I could also try and find a guy to have a nice dinner with who is willing to come and hang my shelves afterwards.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Yeah, right. And she did it. She did. She had a nice, successful date with a guy. Yeah. She put it to him, would you be willing to come back to my apartment to hang my shelves for me? And he did.
Starting point is 00:22:22 And he was like, that's a euphemism. Yeah, exactly. He's like, I'd love to hang your shelves. I know what that means. And he was like, that's a euphemism. Yeah, exactly. He's like, I'd love to hang your shelves. I know what that means. I've got shelves at my house where they are particularly well hung. Well hung. Very well hung shelves.
Starting point is 00:22:33 Anyway, he gets back there and it's actual shelves that he needs to hang. Okay. Well, I mean, he's agreed to it. Please tell me he followed through and he was a gentleman and he hung the shelves. He followed through. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:43 And she documented it on TikTok. Unfortunately for the girl, well, unfortunately for both of them, I guess. For Nicole who wanted her shelves hung. Yeah. And for this guy who was clearly trying to impress the girl by hanging the shelves. Yeah. He hung them upside down. So she ended up with upside down shelves.
Starting point is 00:23:06 And I mean this in the nicest way possible. She got what she had coming. Exactly. I would say those are not well hung shelves. And that's not what you're looking for either in your shelves or from a Tinder date either. Upside down. Oh, I'm looking at them now.
Starting point is 00:23:19 Those are very ambiguous shelves. I would hang them that way. But obviously that's a brace that's meant to go underneath. Again, why you shouldn't get me down your shelves. Yeah. I would hang them that way, but obviously that's a brace that's meant to go underneath. Again, why you shouldn't get me to hang the shelves. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:29 It's pretty hot though, I reckon, someone doing some work. No, not him, I mean the act. Oh, sorry. Doing some DIY. He's fine, yeah,
Starting point is 00:23:36 but the act of doing some DIY early in the night is very hot. Very attractive. I once, I'm not afraid to say it, I once fixed a bed for a girl that I was seeing. How early in are we talking?
Starting point is 00:23:49 Like, third, fourth date. Wow. I fixed her bed. What, did she have some loose knots? Well, full disclosure, I broke the bed as well. But that's a whole other story. Write yourself. I broke the bed.
Starting point is 00:24:04 I fixed the bed. I fixed the bed. I have never received so much kudos as I did after doing that. And I've got to tell you, I made it up completely. I just went to Mitre 10 and I bought, you know, those nails that are on a strip and you put the strip up and you bang all of the nails in? I don't know if the bed survived much longer, but, you know. Well, it's four o'clock in the afternoon,
Starting point is 00:24:22 so we won't get into what kind of kudos you got. What sort of nailing? Excuse me. We're meant to be talking about something else. I thought we could take some calls this afternoon on DIY fails, particularly from your partner. Great. So your partner comes in,
Starting point is 00:24:38 got all the confidence they need, and they're like, yeah, I can take care of that. Not a dating situation. Any partner, they're like, yeah, I can take care of that. Not a dating situation. Any partner. They're like, yeah, I can do that. Turns out you should have got a professional in. 0800 dials at M or text us to 9696 this afternoon. We want to know your partner's DIY
Starting point is 00:24:55 fails. Oh, they'll be there. Oh yeah, totally. You had to pay more in the long run to get it done. You had to pay someone to fix what your partner fixed. Let us know. Dob them in. Oh, $800 at M.
Starting point is 00:25:09 Maddie's telling you how to get work done around your house. All you got to do is get a Tinder date to do it for you. Exactly. This girl in New York needed her shelves hung. Yeah, not a euphemism. And so she went to Tinder. She needed her pipes checked stop it she
Starting point is 00:25:28 she needed a job done she needed something to look under the hood she needed a job done and so she went to Tinder to get a job done it was shelves real shelves too
Starting point is 00:25:44 she needed some shelving done and her Tinder date did it for her To get a job done. Yeah. It was shelves. It was shelves. Real shelves too. She needed them hung. She needed some shelving done. Yeah. And her Tinder date did it for her. But he screwed it up. He hung the shelves upside down. Upside down. Your one opportunity to impress this girl.
Starting point is 00:25:56 I imagine him standing next to his upside down shelves that he's just hung really proud of himself. And he's going, so? Can I have a pash now? And she's like, they're frigging upside down bro and he's like what do you expect it's free labour
Starting point is 00:26:08 exactly I hope she paid for dinner I mean she was exploiting him he screwed it up it's tit for tat even if it was tit for tat Lynette's here hi Lynette
Starting point is 00:26:18 hey how are you good happy Friday we want to know your partner's DIY fail this afternoon dob Dob them in. What happened? Okay, so my husband noticed that the pantry doors were off culture, like the handles weren't
Starting point is 00:26:32 straight, so him and his mate decided, oh, we'll whip the door off and plane one end of it and that'll fix everything. So they took it off, went outside, thought they were real cool with their plane and everything and, you know, power tools and everything. Decided to, yep, grab some off. Went to hang it back up and realised that the plane's the wrong end of the door.
Starting point is 00:26:55 Brilliant. I've got an important question for you on this DIY attempt. Before anything happened, Lynette, you said he noticed the door handles were off kilter. Had you noticed anything? Like, did you notice an issue at all? Yeah, but he's one of those people that wants to do shit straight away, so I just decided to ignore it because if I told him he'd want to do it sooner. So do you have uneven pantry doors now or do you just have no pantry doors?
Starting point is 00:27:16 No pantry doors. That's a trendy look, isn't it? We sold the house with the uneven. You sold it with the uneven? We sold the house with the uneven doors. The ironic part is his other brother's a builder, so if we'd waited a couple more days, he would have done it properly. He would have been fine.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Yeah. I love the idea that the pantry doors were so rooted, you had to sell the whole house. Oh, you've stuffed that up. Also, why wait a couple of days for the brother when you can do it yourself? Obviously, DIY. Yeah. Bryony's here.
Starting point is 00:27:40 Hi, Bryony. Hi. What was your partner's DIY fail? So we were repainting the walls and it was like old jibs. So my partner tried to rejib the walls before we started painting it because it was going to cost like $500.
Starting point is 00:27:57 But I ended up doing such a shit job and now we have really ugly walls. And do you remind him of it every single day? He actually reminds me of stuff. I feel like walking to a room and he goes, man, these walls are shit. I love the idea because jibbing and plastering is actually not an easy thing to do.
Starting point is 00:28:19 Like there are jibbers and plasterers whose whole job it is to make walls look smooth and your partner's like, pfft, 500 bucks. I can do that. Quick two-minute YouTube tutorial. Easy. Well, good. At least you know your limitations going forward.
Starting point is 00:28:33 Finally, Megan. See, I'm Megan. Hello. How's it going? Good. What happened? A few months ago in the last lockdown, I couldn't reach one of our mirrors that was hung up on the wall,
Starting point is 00:28:44 so I asked my partner to clean it because he's like a foot taller than me. I left the room and then I came back and he was using like a dish scourer and dish soap. So the whole mirror was completely destroyed. It was scratched everywhere. He cleaned
Starting point is 00:28:59 a mirror with like steel wool? Yes. That's not even a DIY fail, that's just like an IQ fail. Are you sure you're with the right man? Yeah, deal breaker. That's a deal breaker. Leave him. Are you worried that you're dating a big dummy? Well, usually he's actually onto everything
Starting point is 00:29:15 but this is just, yeah, not his moment. Or do you think he did it as a way of saying to you never make me do anything again? Never make me do this again. Because that is a male tactic. Maddie's right. Guys will do a terrible job of the first thing they're asked to do, like cooking, so that their partner goes, oh, don't worry.
Starting point is 00:29:31 They never have to do it again. Yeah, don't worry, I'll just do it from now on. Yeah, yeah, well. True, maybe I should hit him up about that, see if there was anything behind it. Yeah, cleaning with steel wool. You need to check what he's using for a loofer in the shower. The man may be stripping his skin off. That's terrifying. Thank you, Megan, for your call. I love this text.
Starting point is 00:29:46 My ex of 13 years was nicknamed Half-Ass Nick. It's every job he did needed some sort of fixing up later. There you go. They walk among us, everybody. That's why, and if there are any tradies listening, they'll back me up. Just get the professionals in, man. Swallow your...
Starting point is 00:30:00 Dude, swallow your pride. Get someone in. They'll do a much better job than that, and you won't have shitty looking walls. Kia ora. I'm Simon Pound and I host Business is Boring, a podcast that reckons it's anything but.

Brought to you by the Spinoff Podcast Network in partnership with Sparklab. uh russia overnight has invaded ukraine crazy right i heard that news update at four o'clock that said it's the largest invasion in europe since world war ii it's absolutely bonkers yeah and a really big deal so this is where i i'm glad you're here because it's clearly a big deal but i think a lot of new zealanders don't necessarily understand how big a deal or because it's clearly a big deal, but I think a lot of New Zealanders don't necessarily understand how big a deal or why it's such a big deal. And I get it. There's so much going on in the world right now.
Starting point is 00:31:13 Yeah. And especially when you feel literally so far away from something like that, it's easy to go, oh, I don't care. Not another thing. Yeah. Not my problem. It's your job to care about it, though. You were anchoring TVNZ Breakfast this morning.
Starting point is 00:31:27 It's the number one news story in the world. So can you explain the Russia-Ukraine conflict to us? I'm going to give it a go. Go, cool. So conflict between Russia and Ukraine has been going on since Ukraine separated from Russia, which was at the time called the USSR. That happened in the early 90s. So this is a
Starting point is 00:31:46 long time. Right, okay. But they used to be part of Russia. They used to be part of Russia. They used to be part of the USSR. Yes, exactly. They separated. They became their own states and countries. Yeah. But it's always been a little bit fraught. Titchy. Yeah. And then in 2014,
Starting point is 00:32:02 Ukrainians got rid of their president at the time who was super chummy with Russia. Right. And Russia went, we're not loving this. And so they invaded this region in Ukraine called Crimea. Yes. And they took over Crimea.
Starting point is 00:32:21 That's on the border, right? Correct. Of Russia and the Ukraine. Which actually covers quite a lot of ground. Yeah. Like the border between Russia and Ukraine is really long. Justin Timberlake wrote that song about it, Crimea River, right? Stop it.
Starting point is 00:32:34 It's literally the border, the Crimea River, right? I don't know if that one's factually correct, but sorry, you carry on. I'll fact check that later. But yeah, that invasion was huge. And that was in 2014. And since then, like 14,000 people have died. Whoa. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:49 Okay. So it's huge. Yeah. So this isn't like an overnight thing. This has been going on for a really long time. Yeah. Recreating the Justin Timberlake joke. Not great.
Starting point is 00:32:58 That's okay. We'll let it slide. And so Ukraine since then has been like, this isn't cool. Yeah. We can't be having this. And so Ukraine Since then has been like This isn't cool Yeah We can't be having this So they wanted to join NATO Which is like a big Collaboration of about 28
Starting point is 00:33:14 28 European countries That have formed this like military alliance It gives them coverage right Against a superpower like Russia Totally It means that they There's a deterrent for Russia to invade A a bit of protection yeah uh but russia really don't want ukraine to join nato um partly i think because they like the idea of being able to maybe reform the ussr but
Starting point is 00:33:37 also they don't want these big military operations so close to their border yeah so they've been trying to get all these european countries turn down Ukraine's application to join NATO. Yeah. You with me? Yeah, I'm with you. Yeah. But everyone else in Europe's like, no, let them join. Like more the merrier.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Come on board. Come on board. Especially because Russia is seen as this big superpower. Yeah. So they're like, we'd love to have Ukraine on board. Balance it out. Absolutely. A bit more maybe, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:03 So now Russia's like, we can't let this happen. We're going to invade Ukraine to stop them from joining NATO and take control of Ukraine. Which is crazy in 2022 that you think a country will just go into another country and go, we own you now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Which is effectively what they're trying to do, right? Like if Australia said, we want New Zealand and then just push their way in by military force, like it doesn't... It seems crazy. And especially when you think of it in terms like that, right? Yeah. But this is literally happening
Starting point is 00:34:35 and looks like it could quite easily happen. Like it would not surprise anyone if Ukraine just became part of Russia now. So the big tension is also, right, is any of the other big Western countries like the UK or the US going to do anything about it, right? Totally. And all of these Western countries have said,
Starting point is 00:34:55 we're not going to engage in any kind of military operation. No, because everyone's got nukes. Yeah, exactly. And also, things have changed. They're not just going to send in their army and their military into an unnecessary battle that could likely result in a huge number of deaths. So instead of sending in military operations,
Starting point is 00:35:17 they've just gone naughty. Naughty, yeah. Snapped on the head. We're going to cut off your, I don't know, we're going to make it hard for you to trade with the West. Exactly. So they've all imposed actually quite heavy sanctions on Russia, shut down banks and that kind of thing, like banking operations
Starting point is 00:35:34 so that they can't have overseas banking operations going. They've stopped funneling money into big projects that Russia wanted to be responsible for. So there are some quite big things that they've done. And essentially they're trying to kind of isolate Russia so that Russia goes, crap, we can't do anything without all of this money kind of coming in and stuff.
Starting point is 00:35:57 But it's kind of like, who knows whether that will be enough to put a stop to it. Because inevitably, Vladimir Putin, the leader of Russia, would have gone, well, this is exactly what's going to happen. Yeah, I know what to expect. I know what to expect. I'm willing to do it anyway. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:36:12 And he has done it. And he has done it. And there's been like, they're saying there's been more than 100 Ukrainians have died in the last 24 hours. Yeah. Possibly more. Yeah. And it more. Yeah. And it's just crazy.
Starting point is 00:36:26 Imagine going from just wandering the streets in your country one day. To being shelled by Russia. And literally having to go underground into your subway stations to take shelter. Yeah. Crazy. It's fascinating.
Starting point is 00:36:41 And there are so many pictures, like crazy pictures coming out of that as well. So hopefully that gives you a bit of an crazy pictures coming out of that as well. So hopefully that gives you a bit of an insight into why all of that is going on. Totally. Because like Matty said, it's so far away. It is so far away, but it is really important. And also I get it like, you know,
Starting point is 00:36:54 you go to a dinner party and your smart friend is talking about something and you get lost and it goes right over your head. Happens to me all the time. Now you got a bit of back. Now you got, yeah. Just take a little, one or two of those facts, not the Justin
Starting point is 00:37:07 Timberlake one. And then they go, wow! And you go, thank you, my friend Maddie McClain. Exactly. Perfect. Time for the one second song challenge. Maddie's second ever one second song a song. No hesitating. You only got one second. One second. Matty's second ever one second song challenge and he's coming off a win as well. Also, is he?

Starting point is 00:39:29 No problem. You're going to get it for us this time, though. You're going to pull it back. I am. All right, Jess and Ethan, this round's a little bit different than normal. It's a little bit tough, so I'm going to accept just the song title
Starting point is 00:39:41 or just the artist, okay? Ooh, okay. Your names are your buzzers, guys. Let's hear song number two. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I don't know this.

Starting point is 00:40:47 You were hot on that buzzer. Well done, Maddie. I would have said Sugar Babes. Yeah, I said Sugar Babes the first time I heard this one. For all saints. Being gay is paying off. Yes, well. Did you say being gay is paying off?
Starting point is 00:41:02 Being gay. Oh, being gay. All right. We're going to go back to Jess and Ethan. Ethan, if you get a point here, you could win it for your team. Sure. Ethan, hopefully it's a nice big straight anthem. All right, guys.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Let's hear song number four. Ethan. Appleveen. Comicated. Oh, he didn't buzz in, Jess. Oh, I forgot to buzz. Ethan, what is it? Hopefully Ethan didn't hear you.
Starting point is 00:41:31 Ethan? Ever Levine. What's the song name? Oh, no. I was about... Okay, Jess, what's the answer? Oh, no. Complicated.
Starting point is 00:41:43 Ever Levine, complicated. The comeback of the year. You've kept us in it. What's the score? What's the score? We're currently sitting at a tie, 2-2. Oh, okay. All right, it's Maddie versus Clint for the decider.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Let's hear a song. Oh, that had so much tension. That was... My heart is racing. Yes. Let's hear song number five. Go, Benny! Oh no! Obviously Eminem.
Starting point is 00:42:10 Yep. Five. No, don't put pressure on me! Three, two, one. No! What's the name of it? Is it just Slim Shady? No.
Starting point is 00:42:27 Is it the real Slim Shady? No. Without me. Oh, Ethan, well done. Well done, Ethan. And with that, the 50 KFC chicken dollars go to team Maddie and Ethan. Yes. Congratulations, guys.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Boys. Nice work, Ethan. Without me. Sorry, I don't know whether I was meant to say anything. No, you were. Honestly, we were floundering. Someone had to win it. There we go.
Starting point is 00:42:57 That's the one second song challenge. Well done, Maddie. Two wins in a row. Thank you. Bree and Clint. This is a real interesting one, though, that came out of the internet this week on Reddit. Someone posted, am I the a-hole? Because they've taken their mum to task,
Starting point is 00:43:11 and the internet is calling mum narcissistic. But is she? This person has broken ranks with the family and said, I'm over it. I can't do it anymore. Since I was a child, my mother has expected us to buy her presents on our birthdays.
Starting point is 00:43:29 So when the kid has a birthday, the mum wants the presents. So the mum goes, I gave birth to you. I carried you. I carried you. I raised you. I raised you. I clothed you. I fed you.
Starting point is 00:43:43 When you say it like this, it actually sounds kind of reasonable. Doesn't it just? But it's not the way, right? Mum has her day to be celebrated. It's her birthday. Exactly. And she has a backup day as well. Mother's Day.
Starting point is 00:43:55 Totally. And for me, every day is Mother's Day. I celebrate Mother's Day. My mother. That wasn't meant to be dodgy. I mean, my mother, my wife. So is it too much? Is the mum being unreasonable? The internet
Starting point is 00:44:09 thinks so. But I thought who are we to comment? Two men. Two non-childbearing men. Neither of us are mothers. Neither of us have carried a child before. Two men who will never push a child out of our downstairs. So I thought we need to get a mum
Starting point is 00:44:26 on. So please welcome to the show your wonderful mother, Tracey. Hi, Tracey. Hi, how are you? Hi, Mum. Hi, Matt. How are you? I'm great, thank you. Have you got a gin in hand? Just poured one because it's close to five.
Starting point is 00:44:41 Friday. Yeah, Friday my day off. So, yeah, just poured it. And it's a to five. It'd be Friday. Yeah, Friday my day off. Fair enough. So, yeah, just poured it. Fair enough, Mum. And it's a beautiful day down here. The lake looks like glass. You're in Queenstown, aren't you? In Queenstown, yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:55 Maddy's got an important question because we needed the opinion of a mum for this conversation. So, Maddy's got an important question to ask you. Mum, do you think that on my birthday you deserve a present? No, why? No, definitely not. Well, there's a mum on the internet who says that on each of her kids' birthdays they should buy her presents because she did the birthing and the carrying.
Starting point is 00:45:22 Oh, yeah, well, good point. But no, no, you've got to celebrate. You've got to celebrate your kids' birthdays. And it gets harder the older they get. But to me, it's a special day. Why does it get harder? Why does it get harder? Well, because, you know, your kids move away from home
Starting point is 00:45:41 and they've got their own lives and you're just trying to think of something. You don't know what to get them up, do you? No, no, sometimes I don't. But you say I'm hard to buy for. You're a very good gift giver, Mum. And I think you and I have come to a mutual understanding that if we can't figure it out, a bottle of gin will do the trick nicely.
Starting point is 00:46:01 Absolutely. Or a voucher for a nice meal out next year. Exactly. But look, I would understand if you wanted something on my birthday trick nicely. Absolutely or a voucher for a nice meal out. Exactly. I would understand if you wanted something on my birthday because it wasn't easy with me, was it? No, no. 36 hours, mate. 36 hours.
Starting point is 00:46:16 Yeah. It was that big head, eh? It's only gotten bigger. Eight pound ten. So yeah, it took a... Yeah. Hey, Maddie. Eight pound ten. So, yeah, it took a... Yeah, yeah, she wasn't easy. Did Dad at least get you a bloody gift afterwards? Good question. Did people buy push presents in the 80s?
Starting point is 00:46:34 Oh, one of the few times I ever got flowers from your father. Yeah, count them on one hand. Three children. All you had to do was push Maddie out of your vein. That's all it took to get flowers. Hey, Maddie's mum, we really appreciate you. Enjoy your Friday dinner, okay? Have a great afternoon and a lovely weekend.
Starting point is 00:46:49 And it's been a blessing ever since, right mum? Yeah, absolutely. Bree and Clint. Friday Oki. And now it's time for Bree and Clint's most popular segment. Friday Oki. I love Friday-oke.
Starting point is 00:47:05 It's the best. I listen every Friday. I never miss Friday-oke. Thanks, Brian Clint. You've made my Friday again. F-F-F-Friday-oke! All real testimonials. True.
Starting point is 00:47:19 Those that you heard just there. I don't doubt it for a second. People bloody love it. And last week when we didn't do it, because I was between co-hosts, you know, I had a bit of Bree, I had a bit of you, there just wasn't time.
Starting point is 00:47:30 We didn't do it and we got messages saying, you've got to make Matty do a Friday Okie. So this week, Matty has stepped into the lion's den and taken on a song of his choice. What song have you selected for us for Friday Okie, Matty? Well, I was, look, it was a hard decision to make, but we talked about this guy earlier on in the week, and it got me thinking about some of his absolute bangers,
Starting point is 00:47:52 and I thought this one would be a really good song for Fridayoke. Robbie Williams, Rock DJ. I don't want to rock, rock DJ. DJ. And the stage is already going, rock, DJ. DJ. Anastasia's already going off. Wait.
Starting point is 00:48:11 It's got good juju, right, Anastasia, this song? Got a lot of late night Saturday in town. Yeah, Denny Dolan's vibes. Yeah, the music video up on the PowerPoint. The bog Irish bar in Christchurch vibes. Oh, shut up. Right? So if you like this, Anastasia, just you wait.
Starting point is 00:48:29 As is tradition, those who choose the song go first. Oh, okay. So, Matty, we're about to hear your Robbie Williams rock DJ. Any final messages you need to put out there? I'm so sorry. Let's do it. Here it goes, everybody. You can't vote until you've heard them both,

It's one of the better ones we've had, yeah. Also, how refreshing is it to have a different voice on Friday Oaky? Yeah, one that's in tune is nice.

I had it in my mind how it was going to go and then all of a sudden you're hitting this high note. I also don't remember putting on a British accent, but it turns out that I did.
