We've got 50 bucks for you. Thanks to our friends at KFC. Congratulations. Thank you. We're having an interesting conversation on Breakfast this morning, me and my co-hosts, about how we met our significant others. Oh, yeah. Mine's not an interesting story.

I met him on Tinder like most people do these days. That's how I met Ryan. Yeah. But Indira, our newsreader, was telling us that she met her husband. They've been married for seven years because he sat next to her on a plane. Oh, really? Yeah. Well, actually, it's even more interesting than that because they sat in the same row.

Yeah. But there was a guy smack bang in the middle. But they knew of each other. Like she recognised him because he's friends of someone that she knew. There was a guy smack bang in the middle, but they knew of each other. Like they, she recognized him because he's friends of someone that she knew. And so they were kind of like, there was a connection. There was a connection.

They started chatting and the guy in the middle was like, do you just want me to move? I was going to say, did they have to bond over some rando? Yeah. But did he, good on him for picking up the vibes. He knew immediately.

He moved. So they ended up sitting next to each other, spoke the whole flight. It was an international flight to Australia. Okay knew immediately. He moved. So then they ended up sitting next to each other, spoke the whole flight. It was an international flight to Australia. Okay, yeah. And by the end of the flight, they'd swapped numbers

and they'd been married for seven years. How many times have you sat next to a hot person on a plane and then afterwards going, I wish I'd said something. Totally. I wish I'd said something.

Well, I think I've spoken about it on the show before. I once left my number for a flight attendant on a sick bag. That's right. Yeah, it didn't go so well. It didn't work out for me. So anyway,

we were talking about it on the show on Breakfast this morning and some of our viewers ended up sending in some of their stories and one of the most fascinating ones to me was a woman called Renee who emailed in to say she met her husband because she went to the toilets in the train station

and on the wall in the train station was a message that said, call Dee for a good time. I remember those messages. People used to write them on the playground all the time. Totally. When cell phones first came around, you'd write someone's cell phone on there as like a troll. I'm sure even before cell phones,

there were some 09s. Some home numbers. Landline numbers in there. So she said. Someone's mum answers. And they go, hey, I'm calling about a good time. She's like, hi, I'm calling for D. I'm looking for some D.

Hi, I'm looking for a good time with D. And she goes, hang on, D. Someone's on the phone for you. Get off the Seeger. Get off the Seeger Get off the Seeger Shut up mum I'm busy Anyway Renee messaged Dee

She messaged a random number off a train station toilet wall They have now been married for 18 years That's incredible Isn't that a crazy story And And happily Has it been a good time It's been a great time.

Well, the message was correct then. Some D from Dee. Dee was genuine all along. He's like, I genuinely just want to give someone a good time. Why won't anyone call me? And Renee did and she was rewarded for it. She got the D. So I wanted to know this afternoon,

do you have a story that can match that? Did you meet your partner in an interesting way? Yeah. Is your origin story like different? Yes. Or unique or like even just like special? Yeah, lovely. They call them in rom-coms, they call them meet-cutes.

You know, those moments where the two main characters have a meeting because they've both grabbed for the last, like, bottle of wine on a shelf or something. Something like that. Yeah. Or they meet at a funeral and they realise that they both, I was about to say that they were related, but that's not a good one. Hopefully not.

You know what we mean. Maddie said it better than me. So call us right now and tell us what was your meet cute. What's your awesome origin story of your relationship? You can text us on 9696 as well. Bree and Clint. We were speaking on breakfast this morning about the way that me and my breakfast co-hosts

had met our significant others. And most of us didn't have a particularly interesting story, but Indira, our newsreader, met her husband because they sat next to each other on a plane. Yeah. So we've been asking you for your meet-cues. How did you meet your significant other? And there's some brilliant ones coming through at the moment.

We've got Anonymous on the line. They don't want to share their name, but they do want to share their story. Hi, Anonymous. Hey, how's it going? Good, how are you? Yeah, wonderful, thank you. All right, tell us the story. How did you meet your partner?

My partner and I worked for a company in New Zealand, and every year that flies over to PG for a work conference. Oh, my God. Yeah, and it ended up being like a three- or four-day-long party, and each night I'd have different themes. And on one of the nights, and this was about six years ago, they had a carnival-themed party, and so there was lots of different games that you could play. and in one of the corners, they had a palm reader, and so the two of

us just happened to be at the palm reading at the same time, and we got given effectively the exact same palm reading, and yeah, we hung out for a bit to talk about it, and that's sort of how we met. You bonded over palm reading at the work Christmas party in Fiji? Yeah, man. And did your palm reading say that you were gonna make someone special like was there something significant about it uh yeah so we were actually because we never met before we were both in different relationships at the time and the

palm reading told us that the relationships that we were in um weren't supposed to last pretty much so yeah man you guys had to fly back to New Zealand and dump your partners. Is that what happened? No, we hung out as mates for about three years. And then, yeah, and then we ended up taking a few years before we actually decided to hang out properly. And then we got married maybe two weeks ago. Oh, wow. Congratulations.

Just before you go, what kind of company Has their work party In Fiji And how do we get a job I want to work there We're working for Coca-Cola I knew it I knew it I've got some friends

So I signed up for a gym, and when I started going to the gym, I noticed that there was someone that worked there that was quite breathtaking.

So I keep going back to the gym in order to try and impress her, you know. She was your motivation for going to the gym. Exactly. A tale as old as time. Love it. Yeah, so I keep going to the gym. Exactly. A tale as old as time. Love it. Yeah, so I keep going to the gym and in the process I accidentally lost 16 kgs trying to impress her. Wow!

And we got married in January. Oh, brilliant. Are you serious? Yeah, yeah. Wow. I love it. That's very feel good. How long did it take into the journey? Did it take for her to actually notice you? Maybe like a couple of weeks.

We talked and stuff because she makes it work then. So I go and say hello. But for us to start properly hanging out and stuff, it took a bit. How long did it take to lose 16 kgs? Maybe like three months. Wow. You lost 16kgs in three months? That's amazing. Oh, yeah.

You know, the motivation was high. Like, I'll tell you. Yeah, when you go to the gym five times a day, you're going to lose 16kgs pretty quickly. Hey, I love it. Hey, thanks, David. That's a great story. Someone said, I met my husband at the petrol station, parked beside him at the pump and had a chat. We married. Really? Yeah. That's like I met my husband at the petrol station, parked beside him at the pump and had a chat.

We married. Really? Yeah. That's like that guy we talked to the other week who wanted to meet the Red Swift girl from the petrol station. Yes, true. See, it can happen. It can happen.

It can happen. Yep. Bree and Clint. Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean McCarthy is everywhere you want to be, including on the red carpet with Sandra Bullock for her new movie, right, Dean?

Hi, guys. Yeah, new movie called The Lost City. She stars alongside Channing Tatum. Daniel Radcliffe is in this movie as well. Really fun, unique storyline. Hilarious film. But the two, Sandra and Channing Tatum, their chemistry on screen is so real and energetic.

Check this out. I actually caught up with Sandra. I had to ask her about how she and Channing are so vibing. Check it out. Chemistry between you and Channing was so awesome. Why was he perfect for that role, do you think? We've known each other for so long. Never worked together.

We're different enough in our approach to things, but we are oddly and uncomfortably similar. Really? Yeah. We are very similar. Wow, okay. Friends from way back. She's then gone on to talk to James Corden about how they know each other, right, Dane? This is the best part of all. Okay, so they've been friends for a while.

They vibe they're good friends. They first met in a principal's office. Here's some audio of how their daughters brought them together. Check it out. When did you first meet? In the principal's office. Here's some audio of how their daughters brought them together. Check it out. When did you first meet? In the principal's office at our preschool. We have two very, very, very strong-willed little girls that, you know, at that young age were very much button heads. Yeah, we'd get calls and I'm like, please let it be Everly. Please let it be Lila.

I would just be like, of all the people, of all the people to like fight with their daughter. What is the celebrity school where Channing Tatum and Sandra Bullock have kids going? How do you get your kids in there? You must be,

well, I know Channing, we know where Channing lives. We've actually driven past his house creepily enough. Yeah, we stalked Channing Tatum in his neighborhood.

Yeah, so they probably go to school in like Bel Air or Beverlywood or something. Yeah, probably, yeah, not school in like Bel Air or Beverlywood or something. Yeah, probably, yeah, not too far from where we stalked. Sorry, not stalked. Viewed. Viewed.

Investigated is the word we were looking for. Oh, wow. Well, there you go. That is the latest on the new Channing Tatum, Sandra Bullock movie from our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy. Free and Clint. It's one of life's biggest journeys, I think, finding the thing that you love to do for a job.

Yeah, what's your vocation? What's that saying? If you find the thing you love, you never have to work a day in your life. Yeah, yeah. Well, a guy in Australia has found a job that I find so fascinating that I think I would love,

but it's a job I never even knew existed until I heard him talk about it. Right, you didn't realise you could get paid for this. I did not know this was a thing. Okay. But it's so good. Do you want to do it? I would love to do it. Would you be good at it?

I think I'd be great at it. Wouldn't I be good at it? Yeah, I'd be so good at this. But I don't feel like I can do it justice telling you what this guy does. So I'm going to get him to explain his job to you. Listen to this. You also call yourself the coffin confessor. What do you do?

In short, I crash funerals on behalf of the deceased. People hire you. They tell you, say, a secret that they have while they're alive. And then they ask you to reveal that truth. It could be at the funeral, the wake, the will reading, or it could be a private message to somebody delivered face-to-face. It's not a job for anybody that can just go and do it. It takes a little bit of nerve, but at the same time, it's a request.

What a strange job. So that was Bill Edgar. Yeah yeah he lives in queensland yeah and this began because in 2018 his 79 year old boss who was terminally ill so knew he was going to die yeah organized for bill to stand up and read something out during his eulogy. Okay. So at the boss's funeral, the best friend of the boss got up to deliver the eulogy and the guy who died, the boss, said to Bill, I want you to interrupt the eulogy and I want you to read this letter from an envelope

that I'm giving you. Okay. He opened the envelope, read the letter and it just said a list of names. So he started calling out the names. He said, Amanda, John, Peter, can you all stand up? And then the letter said, can you please stand up? Can you all piss off?

Really? I haven't seen you in 30 years. Why are you here? Why are you at my funeral? So that was his first task and he did it and everyone went, oh my God, that is brilliant.

And so then he started getting hired from people to interrupt some element of the funeral, whether it be a letter like this saying, get out, don't be at my funeral, or if it was a deathbed confession. That's where my mind went.

I was like, are they hiring this guy to go to a funeral and go, I had an affair with Bridget 30 years ago and I never told you? Yeah. Really? No, who wants to deliver that news? He turned up to someone's funeral, turned to his best friend, to the dead guy's best friend,

and said, I knew you were screwing my wife. Whoa. Wouldn't that be such a good job? How do you find this guy? Well, Bill Edgar, look him up. Yeah, right. Well, how do you find him in New Zealand?

Where's the industry for these guys? Where's the coffincrashes.co.nz? I guess that's the website you need to visit. Totally. And someone's just going to put their hand out to do it. So if you've got a secret that you want me to reveal at your funeral, hit me up. Matty's the guy.

I'm the guy. He'll pre-organise a spotlight and he'll go, Silence! I've got something to say. I have found my new profession and I'm so happy. I'm never going to have to work a day in my life because I've found the thing I love to do. Keeping up to date with the news just became a little easier.

As at Herald's new podcast, 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

at nzherald.co.nz slash podcasts and follow us on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts. You know they say the customer is always right? Yeah, I've heard that. I mean, that's the saying, but I think the reality is the customer is almost never right.

I think if you work in retail, after hours you talk about all the wrong customers you've had in that day. Totally. Right? And you're right, the customer is never right. You just have to be polite to them in a professional way. You just have to pretend like they are and make them feel good about themselves.

Even when they're just being impossible, which often they are. Make them feel important so they give you some of their money. That's what it comes down to, right? You don't actually like them and they don't actually like you. This is a transactional arrangement

where for the 15 minutes they're in your store, you need to treat them like they're some kind of God. You have to go, I hear you. I respect you. You're right. You're right. Yeah, you're right. Through gritted teeth sometimes,

especially with the rise of what has now become known as Karens. Oh, right. Yeah. Karens don't like it when we talk about Karens. They don't. And fair enough, if you're a Karen, I get it. But also, you know what I'm talking about. But also, if And fair enough. If you're a Karen, I get it. But also, you know what I'm talking about. But also,

if you complain about it, you're a Karen. Classic Karen behaviour. Of course you would. That's exactly what a Karen would do. But we've already had a text in from someone to say, nice to hear Zedema carrying on

with the Karen thing. Hurtful and causes bullying. Okay, okay. All right, Karen. With love. Okay, okay. All right, Karen. With love. Okay, Kez. All right. I'm so sorry, Karen.

But also, like, it has become a thing and it unfortunately is just the term that we now know it is. And so a company in Australia called Dessert Boxes, they send out, like, those boxes of donuts or lollies or cakes or whatever it is. We've got them here. They're called celebration boxes. Yes, much like that. Yep.

Has started what they're calling their Karen wall of shame. Right. Their Karen mail. Yeah. This is the correspondence they get from people when it's just like, come on. Not all from people called Karen, right? No, not specifically. People who are just exhibiting that kind of behaviour.

Bad behaviour. Bad customer behaviour. And they've posted what is their very first wall of shame email. Okay, go on. It reads, Hi, Dessert Boxes. I'm emailing to say how disappointed I am. I know there's been some rain lately.

This is an Australia mind. But it is ridiculous that your driver didn't deliver the box today because the area I live in is flooded. I bet he didn't even try to deliver it. What do you expect me to do now? I didn't get my brownie. I'm sure it wasn't that bad to get to and he was being lazy, not happy at all.

So the customer acknowledges that they were living in a flood area. Yeah. And they're angry that the courier driver didn't risk their own life. Didn't kayak down the New River. Didn't turn his Toyota HiAce into an amphibious vehicle to get you your brownies.

I could understand it if you're waiting on a kidney transplant, but you're waiting on some chocolate. In fairness, when you want a brownie, you bloody want a brownie. Especially if your house has been flooded. I do get it. I do get it. But people in retail must deal with this all the time.

All the time. People who just have, for whatever reason, maybe they're having a hard day, and this person is clearly having a hard day, or maybe they just are detached from reality. They've lost perspective of what's a realistic request. They go, I gave you $14.99. Why isn't the thing I ordered here now?

Instantly. Totally. You know? Yeah, because it takes 48 hours to get here from overseas. We know with all the stuff we've been through in the last couple of years, especially you've got to be nice to people in retail. They're doing it tough,

especially people in the delivery industry. Totally. So are you in that industry? And do you want to vent to us this afternoon? Please, we would love to start our own wall of shame. Totally. Call us and tell us about the worst customer requests or customer complaints that you've received

working in retail, working in hospitality, working in delivery, anything customer facing. Now's your chance to have your right of reply. We can leave your business right out of it. You're not going to lose your job for sharing it with us this afternoon. But tell us, what are the worst things customers have said or done to you? Sorry, Karen. Love you, Kez.

There's a company in Australia who's started what they're calling the Karen Wall of Shame. This is a wall where they are posting up the most ridiculous complaints that they get. And the first one to get featured on the wall was a complaint about someone who was wanting a delivery and was disappointed that they didn't deliver it despite there being significant flooding in Australia over the last couple of weeks.

The courier driver didn't drive through a flood to deliver a brownie. A brownie. It wasn't medication. No, it was a brownie. Or like groceries even. Yeah, it was a brownie. I'm sure it was a good brownie.

Well, they'll never know, will they? That's what they're upset about. So we've asked people who work in customer-facing roles, you know, the people out there who are dealing with us, the customer, to vent their spleen this afternoon, you know, to get it all out there. Totally. A bit of relief for you guys.

Tyler's here. G'day, Tyler. Hi, how are you? Good, how are you doing? What industry do you work in, Tyler? I used to work in a cafe, but I no longer work in the hospitality industry. Okay.

Yeah, I bet. Hospo. Hospo's had it tough over the last couple of years. Yeah, I've spent the last 10 years at Hospo. What's the worst customer interaction you've had? One time I caught a customer stealing a drink from our cabinet, and once I confronted her about it, she said that I would never get anywhere in life and that I was lying.

Yeah, but then once I showed her the footage and she apologised to me. I was honestly so shook. You'll never get anywhere in life. Yeah, the audacity, right? The nerves. She's the one stealing a drink and somehow you're

the loser. She ended up putting the drink back and somehow you're the loser? Yeah. She ended up putting the drink back and didn't buy it anyway. Yeah, I'll bet she did. Yeah. Okay, hey, thanks, Tyler. Someone texted and said, I've been called a four-eyed C-word when I worked at Kiwi Bank.

They said, bank customers are a-holes. Banks are a weird one, eh? Because people are on edge. They're like, what are you doing with my money? Why are you charging me fees for this? And it's money, so, you know, people take it really seriously. But also, what a low blow. Yeah, to attack someone's appearance. Yeah.

We're not in primary school. People wear glasses. Someone said, I work in retail. All I can say is thank God for masks at the moment. Because people are in there spitting and screaming. But at least a mask means that you don't have to suffer all of that. Nadia's here. Hi, Nadia.

Hi. How are you? Good. Where do you work? I work in a hardware store. Okay. Okay, all right. And what's the worst customer interaction you've had, Nadia?

I had one customer come in. She was, like, amping like rural furious. And I was seeing that she was distressed, so I was like, oh, hey, can I help you? She's like, you can't help me. I've been to other stores, and. So I was like, oh, hey, can I help you, Shay? You can't help me. I've been to other stores and no one's got what I'm after. I went, what are you after? And she goes, I'm after letterbox numbers.

And I went, okay. So I took her down and said, what number are you after? And she goes, number 11. There's no number 11s anywhere. So they were two ones. That is so good. That's the equivalent of when they send their apprentice in for the left-handed hammer.

Yes. But it's one of those things where they hold firm, right? They refuse to admit that they're wrong. Yeah, yeah. So she quickly grabbed the numbers and the name sort of took off real fast. No one's got a number 11. Oh, that's bloody good.

Thank you, Nadia. You have a great weekend, okay? Awkward. Okay. Someone's messaged in to say that they are working a rest home. They have a mushroom and bacon on toast. They put it in a sauce. Oh, yep.

And someone complained and said they wanted the mushrooms and the bacon and the sauce all separated so that they could add them together themselves. Even though the sauce is mushroom and bacon. Yes. Ah, well, you know, lucky it's the weekend. Unless, of course, you've got to work on the weekend. In which case... Ah, bloody customers.

Sorry about that. Yeah, sorry about us. I've got some disgusting news for anybody who hasn't changed their hairbrush recently. Oh, God. And on that topic, welcome to the show, producer Anastasia. Hello. When do you reckon the last time you changed your hairbrush was?

Like, what do you mean? Like, replace it. Yeah, like your hairbrush. How old is it? I've never replaced a hairbrush. You've never replaced your hairbrush? No, like I've bought more, like, to add to the collection. Yeah, like your hairbrush. How old is it? I've never replaced a hairbrush. You've never replaced your hairbrush? No, like I've bought more like to add to the collection. So the main one that you use.

So this one I've got at work. Oh my gosh. We just saw Anastasia's hairbrush. I didn't have time to clean it. What, ever? No, that's a month. That was like a month. So I actually got this on holiday when I was six

because we were in Europe and I forgot my hairbrush. So this was the first... So that hairbrush is 18 years old? Yeah, I guess so. Okay, well, let me read you this information. Oh, my God. And I reckon you might bin that hairbrush on the spot. It looks like the brush you'd use on your Labrador.

Ross Moss once found it on my desk and posted, this was right at the start of COVID, that this would be where everyone caught it off. Totally. It's that old. Forget the Wuhan food market. Yeah. We found the source.

So hair stylist Elizabeth Hickman has recommended replacing your hairbrush. Bearing in mind you've had that one for 18 years, Anastasia, and you won't be the only one listening at the moment who is in the same boat. People will keep their hairbrushes for a while. But she reckons you should be changing your hairbrush every six months to a year, depending on how much hair product you use on a daily basis. Basically, the bristles on a hairbrush are a breeding ground for bacteria.

Every time you run a brush through your hair, you are coating the teeth with oil, dead skin cells, product residue, and germs. And that toothbrush has had, that hairbrush has had two decades of it. Do you know what's worse? I don't think I've ever cleaned this. I just take that hair off.

You might want to. It says here that a dirty hairbrush can make even clean hair look heavy, lank, and greasy. If you suffer from dandruff, an unwashed, oh, sorry. If you suffer from dandruff, an unwashed brush will comb the dandruff flakes back into your hair. That's gross. Which makes sense when you think about it, doesn't it?

Yeah. Well, luckily, that's not an issue for me, but I should definitely take that into note. So now what? Yeah, now what? What are you going to do? $800. Who wants an 18-year-old hairbrush?

The official advice is, if you purchased your hairbrush before the pandemic, get rid of it. It's gone. Or at least give it a good clean. That thing looks like it's alive. It is so hairy. First, it's time for the One Second Song Challenge.

Simple game. You join Team Maddie or Team Clint, and together we try and guess songs as quickly as we can. The team who gets three correct first wins 50 KFC chicken dollars. Let's meet our teammates. Cara's here. G'day, Cara. Hi, how are you? Good.

How are you? Whose team do you want to join, mine or Maddie's? Clint, please. Perfect. You're on my team. Which means, Tammy, you and me in it together, baby. Oh, that's all good. Thank you.

No, I'm excited about it, Timmy. I think you and I are going to kill it. I'm hoping so. I'm hoping so. Yeah, you've got to work together, though. Good energy. Oh, we will. All right, Anastasia runs the game.

What's the deal, Anastasia? All right, Clint's already beautifully explained the rules. I just need a song title and artist. Obviously, the first to three points wins. Today's theme, if you guys listen to Friday Jams today, they're all songs that have played on ZM today for Friday Jams. Oh, okay. So if you're listening out, you have a bit of a hint there.

All right, guys. Clint and Maddie will give it a go first, and then Cara and Tammy will go second. Let's hear song number one. Maddie. I know this. It's on my playlist. Oh, no. Five, four, three, two, one. I know this It's on my playlist Um Oh no

Five Four Three Two One It's Usher DJ got us falling in love Yeah

He is Usher's biggest fan He is And I knew it was Usher But I just couldn't get to the chorus. Yeah. Yeah. Can be a pressure-filled environment, but you have come back before, Matty. You crumbled.

Cara, we're on top. You can put us 2-0 ahead here. Hopefully. Confidence. I like that. All right, Cara and Tammy, your names are your buzzers. Let's hear song number two. Tammy.

Ooh, Tammy. hear song number two. Tammy. Ooh, Tammy. Shania Twain. I need a name. You got this, Tammy. Tammy. Five, four, three, two, one.

Sorry, Tammy. Do you know the name of that Shania Twain song, Cara? I Feel Like a Woman? Well done, Cara. That was awesome. Yeah. All right, awesome song. Maddie's looking at me like he wants to kill me.

I hate this. Maddie, you've come back from 2-0. Yes, I have. Yes, I have. In fact, I did it last week, I think. It was your last chance to come back, by the way, because it's your last show. I reckon the next song's right up Maddie's alley.

Let's hear song number three. Maddie. Sorry. That's Clint. Leona Lewis and Bleeding Love. Get out of here, man. I love that I actually was so emotionally connected to Maddie that I was wanting to give him that.

You apologised to me, even though it was my rightful one to answer. So sorry, yeah. Maddie, you did not perform well this week, man. Hey, you still got Friday Oki, Maddie. I did it from you. You can still win Friday Oki. And Cara, you've won the KFC 50 chicken dollars. Oh, thank you so much.

Congratulations. You're very welcome. It's very well. Thanks. Thanks anyway, Maddie. I'm so... I'm going to cry. This is for you.

Bree and Clint with Maddie. Bree and Clint. It's time for Friday Oki. And now it's time for Bree and Clint's most popular segment Friday Okie I love Friday Okie It's the best I listen every Friday

I never miss Friday Okie Thanks Bree and Clint You've made my Friday again Friday Okie Maddie has filled in for Bree the whole time she's been away And she's been away for five Fridays, which means you're about to compete in your fifth Friday Oki.

That is true. Fifth and final. That is true. Bree's back on Monday. And it's only fitting that you got to choose the song for the last one. And I wanted... When I've been picking the songs, I've kind of gone thick. You know, it's been something we've touched on on the show, or we've talked about or a song

we might have listened to and vibed with. And this week, the big kind of theme of our week was getting our nails done. And don't they look good? Mine are still on. They look amazing. I haven't chipped mine yet. Are you going to keep your nails on? I'm going to keep them at least for until they start to crack. Yeah, right?

Yeah. Good. I'm really vibing with them. So I thought, because we're vibing with our nails so much, we should pick a song that reflects that. So we've gone with this. Now, not everybody will be familiar with this song, Matty. But I feel like you don't need to be that familiar with it because the key is just hearing me and you put our spin on it.

This is Todrick Hall? Correct. And where do you know this song from? Because I'm gay. Fair enough. It's in the welcome pack. Yeah, exactly. They give you a Todrick Hall CD.

Yeah. And a Lady Gaga poster. They send you a Todrick Hall CD. Yeah. Lady Gaga poster. They send you the gift basket with the instructions. We've been in the booth. We've each spent 15 minutes with a professional making it sound as good as possible. This afternoon, you're going to have to judge who did the better version of this song.

Was it Matty on his last ever Friday Okie or his last Friday Okie for a while? Or was it me? Hearing the song for probably the first time. Just giving it a go. Matty chose the song so he goes first. Here it comes. This is Matty's nails, hips, hair,

No, you would have done so well. Wow. Okay, well you need to keep that performance in your mind, okay? Because you need to decide who did the better version

Nails, hair, hips, heels. That's the name of the song. That was fun too. Maddie sounded like this. Girl, what did that girl just say, girl? Girl, I don't dance, I work. I don't play, I slay. I don't walk, I strut, strut, strut, and then sashay.

Someone's got a win, though. We need five votes. And Hans has called up. Kia ora, Hans. Hi, Hans. Hey, guys. How's it going? Good.

How are you doing? I'm good. Matty, I thought you were fantastic. But I have to admit, I think Clint tapped into his inner drag queen. Do you reckon I've got one in me, Hans? Yeah. You sound like a man with experience, so I'll take that vote. Thank you very much, Hans.

You have a great weekend. Pip's here. Kia ora, Pip. Kia ora, guys. How are you this afternoon? You're so good. What do you reckon, Pip? Who had it?

I liked them both, but I have to say Maddie's version had me jigging along in the car from voting for Maddie. His was very natural, eh? It was, yeah, definitely. Yeah, I felt like he has been practising that for a long, long time. It's because I strut, strut, strut every day. Okay, thanks, Pip. One to Maddie. Let's go to Dana.

Hi, Dana. Hi, how are you? Good, how are you going? Who's your vote for this afternoon? I just firstly want to say both of you brought so much back to that. It was so good. Did we do it justice? Did we bring the energy that it needed?

Oh, hell yeah. You set the time for Friday. Good. Good stuff. Okay, cool. Well, which one did you like better? I have to say Clint, you nailed it. Oh, thank you.

That means a lot to me. I know the competition I'm up against this week. I know I'm in Maddie's domain, so to get that point means quite a lot. I'll take it, though. Dana, Lauren's here. Hi, Lauren. Hey. Hey, Lauren. What did you think, first of all?

They were both amazing, for sure. Yeah. Would you be able to do that? Would you be able to get in the booth and sing that song, you reckon, Lauren? Oh, hell no. You've just able to do that? Would you be able to get in the booth and sing that song, you reckon, Lauren? Oh, hell no. You've just got to channel it. It's all about confidence. You can't hold back.

Yeah, yeah. But who do you think took it out? I'm going to say Maddie. Sorry, he just did it better. No, that's good. Thank you, Loz. You've taken us to tie break. One last vote in Maddie's last Friday Oki for a wee while,

and it goes to you, Tabitha. Hi. Hi, how are you guys going? So good. What did you think? Did you like what we had? Did you like the energy we brought? Queen's of the century.

It was amazing. Here you go. Yeah, it's been a big five weeks for you, Maddie, and I have to give this one to you. You nailed it. I think that's the right decision. I think that's the right way to send our man out weeks for you, Maddie, and I have to give this one to you. You nailed it. I think that's the right decision. I think that's the right way to send our man out. So congratulations, Maddie.

You just won Friday Oki. Yeah, girl. What did that girl just say, girl? Girl, I don't dance. I work. Work. I don't play. I slay.

Slay. I don't walk. I strut, strut, strut, and then sashay. Okay. And the results are in. After five weeks, you have won our Friday Oaky battle three games to two. It's been a very, very good battle, though. Put it there.

Well done. Well done. I particularly liked your Kylie Minogue. Brie and Clint. Aye. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Brie and Clint's birthday banger.

Brie usually runs the buttons and the business for Birthday Banger, but while she's been away, you've done a great job, Maddie. Thank you. I really enjoy doing it. It's so good. Yeah. I've listened to this show for such a long time and have always wanted to know what my Birthday Banger was.

And we did yours. We did. It was Avril Lavigne Complicated. Yeah. And you voted against it. I just didn't, I felt like, you know, I didn't want to make it all about me. I thought I'd give the listener the win, but it was a good song.

Yeah, Matty wasn't feeling well that day. He wasn't himself. Jack's here to play Birthday Banger. G'day, Jack. Hey, guys. How we doing? Good, man. How's your Friday going?

Oh, pretty chilled. Pretty chilled, you know. Ready for a big weekend, though, Jack? Oh, days off this weekend. Nice. Hey, well, let's start the weekend off right with your birthday banger. When's your birthday? The 12th of May, 1992.

Okay, Jack, you were 16 on the 12th of May, 2008, and this was topping the charts. Can't do this post-COVID-19, can you? You can't make love in the club. You've got to be seated and separated. Social distancing. With a mask on. With a mask on.

Do you like Usher, Jack? And do you like that song? Oh, yeah. Can't go wrong with Usher. Love it. Yeah, good attitude, man. Okay, wait there. Danny's here.

Kia ora, Danny. Kia ora, guys. How are you? Good. How are you doing, Danny? I'm doing very well, thanks. Yay. Have you had a nice Friday so far?

Okay, Danny, you were 16 on the 7th of August, 2013, and this was the number one song. So wake me up when it's all over When I'm wiser and I'm August 2013, and this was the number one song.

R.I.P. Avicii. Wow, that's a good one. What a great song. That's a really good one. Avicii and Aloe Blacc, you get Wake Me Up. Does this remind you of being 16, Dani? Yeah, definitely. Yeah, right.

Brings back all the mem. Yeah, totally. Okay, wait there. We've got one more birthday banger to do for, Danny? Yeah, definitely. Yeah, brings back all the memes. Yeah, totally. Okay, wait there. We've got one more birthday banger to do for Memphis. Kia ora, Memphis. Hey, guys. How's it going? Good.

How are you doing? Yeah, I'm doing pretty good. Did your parents name you because you were conceived in Memphis? No, my dad was a big fan of Elvis. So they just called me Memphis. Have you got a sister called Grace? I've got a sister named Gracelyn, yep.

He went the whole hog. Yeah, good. God, big fan. All right, well, let's find out what your birthday banger is, Memphis. When's your birthday?

12th of November, 2000. Okay, you were 16 on the 12th of November, 2016, and this is your birthday banger. Imagine if it was Elvis.

You know? I mean, the chances are low considering when you were born, but... Oh, yeah. Do you like this? Do you like The Weeknd? Yeah, I love The Weeknd.

I love The Weeknd too. He's so talented. Yeah. It's a cool song too. Okay, Memphis, wait there. We need to decide between Usher, Avicii and The Weeknd. The Weeknd. For me, it's got to be Avicii.

You know what? As big an Usher fan as I am, I actually agree with you. Yeah. That song's all the vibes for a Friday, right? 100%. Hey, Danny, congratulations. You just won Birthday Banger. Woo!

Woo! Enjoy this. Enjoy your four-day weekend. Will do. You just won birthday banger. Woo! Woo! Enjoy this, okay? Enjoy your four-day weekend. Will do. See you guys. See ya. Brian Clint with Matty ZM. Feeling my way through the darkness.

Brian Clint. It's one of those age-old questions. Me and my friends do this all the time. That whole thing of, what ever happened to that person? Oh my God, where is such and such? Yeah. Yeah. You and I did it one time over dinner where we went, where the hell is Lana Cockcroft? Do you to that person? Oh my God, where is such and such? You and I did it one time over dinner

where we went, where the hell is Lana Cockcroft? Do you remember that dinner? I do. And then you and me and my wife Lucy did some investigative journalism to find out where Lana Cockcroft went. We deep dived into Lana Cockcroft's life because it was like, it was Lana, Lana, Lana, she got cut by the

coral. And then Celebrity Treasure Islands. And then she was nowhere. She was gone, yeah. No one knew where Lana Conecroft went. Is she working at Cafe with Matthew Ridge? We didn't know. Yeah. But one man who has made it his

mission to find out what has happened to some of our very favourite New Zealand celebs is Kiwi comedian James Musterpicker. Hi, James. G'day, James. How's it going? Good, how are you?

I'm great, thank you. Thanks for having me. People may know you from many former lives of yours. You were Shorty Street James. You did Shorty Street Scandal on YouTube. Yes. You also have done a show called Repressed Memories, a web series before, where you began profiling high-profile Kiwis, and where are they now, right?

Yes, yep. And so then TVNZ went, we want to turn this into something bigger, and gave you your own on-demand show, James. Yes, yeah, it's exciting. So Abandonment Issues is out today. Tell us about it. What is it that you are doing? Yes, well,

so yeah, it's basically I'm revisiting going through the graveyard of the cringiest or best NZ TV shows and playing clips and making fun of them and then I go on a mission to

find these long lost celebrities that have disappeared Drop some names on us, who are you searching for in this season of Abandonment Issues? Okay, we've got Ben Lummis and Michael Murphy from NZ Idol. Right, the classics Yeah, we've got Drew Nemia Sue Nicholson from Sensing Murder, that was Ben Lummis and Michael Murphy from NZ Idol. Right. The classics. Yeah.

We've got Drew Nemia, Sue Nicholson from Sensing Murder. That was a big one because I once had a bit of a feud with her. You did? She was not happy with you, was she? No. No spoilers, but did you recruit like a telepath or someone to find Sue Nichols? Did you access the supernatural to find sue nichols from since you went you went to deb weber and asked deb weber to help you find sue nicholson i unfortunately deb was not and neither was calvin crookshank he was not keen

to be a part of it but i did i talked to two other psychics and um they were batty, but very fun. I met Calvin Cruikshank once. He looked at me and he goes, have you got wood floors in your house? And I said, yeah, I do. And he goes, knew it. But the worst bit about it was everyone around us went, wow, he's good. He's good. I was like, he's not.

He's not. He just knows the Auckland property market. Like, of course I have wooden floors. I told my wife and she goes, you need to start believing, Clint. Okay. So what's the deal? So you try and track these people down. How many of them do you actually, without giving too much away,

do you have much luck actually getting a hold of them? Yes, almost all of them. There was a few. Well, there was one in particular. I won't say who, but he has blocked me on many social media platforms and did not want to be a part of it.

Okay. Yes, but, you know, most of them were keen, actually, which was good. What's your end goal here? Like, are you trying to create the ultimate Coca-Cola Christmas in the park? Like, is that what, would that be the dream for you? You get all these guys together, you get Ainsley Allen, you get Drew Nemia,

you get Frankie Stevens, and we do the ultimate Coca-Cola Christmas in the park? Yes, I love it. We do a charity concert to raise money for their careers. Jeez, you're a savage. Okay, I don't want, like I said, I want people to go and watch this on TVNZ On Demand, so I don't want too many spoilers, but can you give us

an interesting tidbit, like something that you found out by doing this series that you were like, I cannot believe this was something that happened. Okay, well, there was a couple who were not vaccinated. That was one little thing.

Yes, it was a bit of a tricky thing to work around. Hard to present sticky TV if you're not vaccinated. That's right. I can only make that joke because I've had so many hosts. Okay, well, it sounds very exciting and it sounds very nostalgic as well So we're excited to see it The show is called Abandonment Issues And what it's streaming now on TVNZ On Demand

Yes that's right That's it that's James Musterpick everybody Thank you James Thanks James I heard Fletch Vaughan and Hayley talking about this morning, talking about this specific thing, and I bolted up right in my seat. And you went,

oh, oh, oh, I need to know about this. A new birth control pill for men has been found to be 99% effective in preventing pregnancies. And there is hope that it could be out in the market like within a year or so.

Wow. Yeah. A man pill. The pill, but for men. For the boys. Yeah. Yeah. They're trialling it on mice

and if I know anything about men and mice, it works the same. One and the same. Mice boners, man boners, same Especially in size Two peas in a pod At the moment, as you know There's really only one kind of contraception men can use

And that's the Connie's, right? Did you know that Connie's have a 15% failure rate? Really? They tell you they're 98% effective, but in reality, according to this article, which is published about the man pill specifically, 15% is the failure rate for the Connie's. I guess you've got to account for whether it's a bit old,

like it's been in your wallet for a while. Wear and tear. Wear and tear. Improper application. And just in-use breakage, right? Yeah, breakage. Yeah, too rigorous. Yeah.

So is a pill the answer? Obviously, a pill is not going to stop STDs or anything. No. So that's... But if you're with a long-term partner, then you don't really worry about that anyway. Or if you're super scared of having kids, both. Totally.

You could be super safe. Yeah. I want to... I mean, look, it beggars the question of whether men will use it. That's the issue. Because in a heterosexual relationship, the traditional contraception has fallen to the woman.

Yeah. Because she's, I know this is the wrong thing to say, but the sentiment is right. She's got more at risk, right? Men have buggered off in the past and left the woman with the baby to deal with totally plus men dare i say it we're bloody lazy but useless we're so useless so i want to bring in heterosexual male enthusiast producer anastasia for a second well i'm not into heterosexual men. Ben is not into heterosexual men.

So that's why you're our spokesperson at this stage. Yeah, you could have just said producer Anastasia, but that's cool. Welcome to the show Straight Chick. You love to boys. Yeah, so do you, Maddie. No, but not like this. Not like this.

He likes to gay boys, and they don't need to take a contraceptive pill No they don't This is useless for Maddie Ryan and I keep trying for a baby And it's just not working So my question for you Anastasia Do you trust men to take the pill? Sorry

Were you going to finish that question? You answered so quickly Do you trust men? No Do you trust men to finish that question? You answered so quickly. It just came out. Do you trust men? No. No. Do you trust men to take the pill? No. And I want to fast forward this.

You're in a relationship, okay? And you go, the pill is messing with my hormones. It's giving me weight gain or depression or whatever it is, mood swings. So, babe, it's on you. It's your turn, babe. Which is really actually serious, and that is cool, and that's something that's cool But no I wouldn't trust any

No No I wouldn't Even if he said babe I want to do this for you Would you still secretly Have to take it in the background Yeah yeah I'd say that would be the situation

Yeah Yeah You wouldn't trust them In which case They're wasting their money Developing this pill Yeah Nice try
