Maddie's getting married soon. You're in the process of planning a wedding right now. Yeah. Are you sick of talking about it?

I'm so sick of talking about it. You are not. No. I'm relishing in the moment. What would you say if I told you there's a way you could get paid for your wedding and I'm not talking about doing a Women's Day spread? Okay. Okay?

This is a way that you could get paid to have your wedding in a pretty cool place and not just you, not just celebrity weatherman Maddie McLean. I'm talking anybody listening now could get paid to have their wedding. Right. So if you've got one coming up, how does a wedding in Italy sound? Sounds beautiful and honestly

the deeper we go into this wedding planning the more I'm thinking, God, an elopement would be very good. Well, you don't even have to elope because they'll give you funds to put the wedding on. After being hit hard by the pandemic, the Italian Tourism Board for the region of Lazio, excuse me if I'm not saying that right,

that's an area that includes Rome, has launched a fund that will give people €2,000 to spend on their wedding if they have their wedding in the area. Wow. Cool, eh? Very cool. So in that area,

they used to do 15,000 weddings a year. Yep. Since the pandemic, they have done 9,000 weddings total. Wow. So it's like crashed. Yeah. And there's a whole wedding industry there

that needs propping up. There's caterers, there's suit makers, dress makers, bartenders, venue hires, everything that goes on with the wedding. Wedding DJs. Amazing. They all need work. That 2,000 euros equates to 3,172 New Zealand dollars. Not enough?

No. Not enough to get you over there? Not enough? No Not enough to get you over there? Not enough Both Italians and tourists can apply for this So long as you apply before January 2023 Shit, it's a romantic city though And country You could get married in the Coliseum You know, you could get married above the Lion Cage or something like that

You could have a gladiator themed wedding And have Frank Sinatra playing Lion Cage or something like that. You could have a gladiator-themed wedding. And have Frank Sinatra playing, When the moon hits the earth. Yes. I'm singing the wrong lyrics, but you know what song I'm singing. That's a boring. Yeah, romantic. So romantic.

I mean, it'll cost you a hell of a lot of money to get over there, plus your friends, plus your family, plus your accommodation. But I mean. But two grand. Two thousand dollars. Two thousand euro, by the way. Yeah, there you go. And a trip to Italy, it would double as your accommodation. But I mean... But two grand. Two thousand dollars. Two thousand euro, by the way. Yeah, there you go. And a trip to Italy,

it would double as your honeymoon. Totally. There you go, there's some inspo for you. I'll talk to Ryan. Talk him into it. Yeah. I want to find his fee, by the way. Free in Clint.

God, you are everywhere at the moment. Me? You. Am I? Well, we talked the other day about your TV guide interview that you did. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I was on Stuff today just doing some research

and I found another article that you feature in. All about your brand new show, 60 Seconds, that's coming to... Oh, it starts on Monday. It starts on Monday. So yeah, the publicity is really starting to ramp up. Totally. And so you are just giving interviews left, right and centre. And this one on Stuff is really nice.

They've done a really good write-up and it definitely makes me want to watch the show. But there was one line in here that really got me it piqued my interest. Okay. It says 60 Seconds is a new talent show hosted by Radio Nice Guy

Clint Roberts. Yeah. Radio nice guy? Is that the reputation that you have? It's not my words. And you know what? No, I wouldn't have thought so. I think I've got a bad boy edge.

Oh, do you? Yeah, I think I've got a bad boy edge. They just haven't seen it yet. Well, I don't know. Everyone out here is talking about you as some nice guy, soft touch. Nah, I've got bad boy energy. Oh, do you really? I don't have one, but I wouldn't look out of place on a motorbike.

Like, it's in my DNA. Dad had a motorbike, so I could get a motorbike. You could? Yeah. I like to treat him mean, keep him keen. All right. Well, I want to put this to the test today. I'm a bad dad.

Well, I'm not a bad dad. I pride myself on being a good dad, but I'm a bad boy who is a dad. I'm a badass dad. Badass dad. That's my vibe. Well, you've got to walk the talk, Clint. Do I? You've got to walk the talk.

Okay. Because everyone's out here calling you nice guy radio host Clint Roberts, and you are here insisting that you're a bad boy. So let's put this to the talk. Okay. Because everyone's out here calling you nice guy radio host Clint Roberts and you are here insisting that you're a bad boy. So let's put this to the test. Okay, I'm ready. I'm ready to prove my bad boy credentials. I've got a quiz for you. I've curated

just to see if you really do have a bad boy edge. Good, yeah. There we go. There we go. All right, so I'm going to ask you a series of questions, all right? I'm ready. Question number one.

Do you own a leather jacket? Yes, but I don't think it looks good on me, so I don't wear it. But it's sitting in the closet? It's sitting in my closet, yeah. I'll give you a half pass for that. Half pass? I gave myself a whole pass, but yeah. Do you have a tattoo?

No, I don't have a tattoo. I've never been able to commit to a tattoo. Fail. Also, well, no, no, no. No, fail. No, fail. There's a good reason for it. No, fail. I think it's irresponsible.

No. What a nice guy radio host Clint Roberts thing to say. Fine, okay, yeah. All right, fine. No, no tattoo. Have you ever ridden a motorcycle? Yes, I have ridden a motorcycle. By yourself?

You weren't holding on to someone's chest on the back? I used to own a scooter. I used to own a 50cc. That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about like a Harley Davidson hooned down the motorway. No, I've never owned a 50cc. That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about like a Harley Davidson hooned down the motorway. No, I've never owned a motorcycle. No.

Fail. It's not looking good for bad boy Clint Roberts. You can be a bad boy in a five-star rated motor vehicle. No, you cannot. You can't. No, you cannot. Okay. A bad boy should always have a pickup line ready to go.

What's your best pick-up line? Hey, are your pants made of glass? Because I can see myself in them. No. Wait, I feel like that was pretty bad. I feel like I should get a... It was a bad line. It doesn't make you a bad boy. Fine, okay.

Give me another one. Okay. Have you ever pulled the fingers at someone? Have you ever flipped anyone the bird? Yeah, totally. Yeah, absolutely. To their face? No, in traffic.

From the protection of my car. Did they see you? With the doors locked. Yeah, they saw me, but I drove away. Yeah, no, that doesn't count. All right. Producer Ben is going to pull up a phrase here. I just want you to read this for

us and we're going to all rate how bad boy you sound reading this. Hey bro, you're cruising for a bruising. That bad boy vibes, isn't it? Anastasia? The fact that you actually read that is so not bad boy. No.

If I was to check your police record, Clint, would it be clean? Of course it's clean, yeah. They wouldn't let me on TV if it wasn't. Fail. Fail. Fine. Okay, all right, fine. Nice guy radio host Clint Roberts is your new moniker.

It's my tagline. Exactly. Fine, okay, I guess I'll get a speeding ticket on the way home and punch someone. Pull the fingers at them while you hoon off on your Harley Davidson. You wait till you see the TV show, man. I'm bad. Bad to the bone.

Bree and Clint. off on your Harley Davidson. You wait till you see the TV show, man. I'm bad. Bad to the bone. Do you know, I love talking about who people's celebrity crushes are. I feel like it's very telling who someone finds hot. Yeah. Because you know so much about those celebrities. Totally. So you feel like you can pinpoint all of that person's likes and dislikes from that one

guest, right? Yeah, exactly. And often it changes quite rapidly, depending on who's hot in the moment. Totally. Henry Cavill for me right now. Superman. Oh God, yeah. Really? Oh yeah. You reckon he's gonna be James Bond? Oh, he could be.

He's in the running. He's a bit too muscly. Yeah, you're right. Yeah, you're right. But I'll take the muscles. But there's this clip that I saw on TikTok today of three of the famous drag queens from RuPaul's Drag Race talking in a kind of interview style about who they found, which celebrities they found attractive and in particular, who they might want to share an on-screen kiss with?

Oh, good question. And one of the answers from the drag queens was to me, slightly surprising. Right? Have a listen to this. If you were nominated for Best Kiss, who is your celeb on-stage kiss with? You know what? I really would want to do probably with Tom Hanks

from, I remember watching Forrest Gump. Tom Hanks and Forrest Gump is your on-screen crush, you psycho. Not even Tom Hanks in Big? No. Or Tom Hanks in Sully or something like that? No. Specifically, Forrest Gump, Tom Hanks. Not even the movie where he had his shirt off the whole time.

I know. Not even cast away Tom Hanks. And so, you know, Tom Hanks, fantastic actor. Some people call him America's dad, you know. He's 65 years old. Is he? He's 65 years old. Is he? He's doing pretty well for 65. But it just made me think,

what an interesting choice for a celeb crush. Totally. Yeah. Not the go-to celeb crush, I would say, most people would have. You don't usually hear of celeb crushes in the boomer bracket. You know?

And nothing against it. It's just, I think it's an underutilized category of celeb crush. Totally. Because you're going left field and that's an interesting crush to choose. My, we always give my mum a hard time

because her, her absolute celeb crush, and it's not a bad celeb crush, but it's Denzel Washington. Oh yeah. Great choice, except I just laugh because she's married

the whitest of white guys in my dad, Steve. And yet her celeb crush is Denzel Washington. Like, they could not be further apart. No, no, no. But that's good. I mean, if you're going to have a pass card, why would you go for what's in the pantry? Yeah, you're right.

You may as well dine out. Do you have a boomer crush? Do you have a boomer celebrity crush? I mean, George Clooney's classic hot. Is he a boomer? He would be. Shall we check quickly? Ben, can you Google how old George Clooney is?

Because I've got the age of mine. 62. Does 62 count? Absolutely. Who's that? My boomer crush would be Nigella Lawson. Oh. Yeah. From the chocolate ads. Yeah.

And everything she says just sounds sexy as well. Ben, we got an age for George Clooney? 60. Is he 60? Alright, yeah. Boomer. Okay, well done. Anastasia? Who's your boomer crush? It's Harrison Ford. Oh. He is so hot.

Good choice. From childhood even to now. Indiana Jones. Do you like his characters or do you like him? Because he's got big, grumpy old man vibes. Because Han Solo, I get it. No, no, no. Indiana Jones.

Indiana Jones, okay. The whip, the everything. The intelligence. No, I mean. Whoa, whoa. The whip, the everything. Ooh. Whoa. The intelligence. No, I mean. No, I mean. Whoa, whoa, too much information in this session. And the intelligence. I mean, happy International Women's Day.

You do you, girl. You do you, girl. Keep some things back from the show. Check you. I just also found out he's nearly 80, so that's kind of. Yeah, you're the most progressive of all of us so far. And look, I will say there is something about the grumpiness, isn't there? I'm not biting that.

The whip. She's purely into the whip. Ben? Ben, who's your boomer crush? I was going to say Sarah Jessica Parker. Oh, I think she's Gen X. I think she might be Gen X. I think you've aged her, Ben.

That's inappropriate on International Women's Day, by the way. No, okay, mate. She's 56? Nah way No okay mate But She's 56 Nah No Wrong one She's Gen X Okay

Nah You need to go older I'll go back Do some thinking Boomers She's almost there Boomers are currently Between 57 and 75 years old

Ooh, Helen Mirren's a good one. Dame Kiri Te Kanawa. Okay, get that bracket up there. Okay. While we survey the nation for boomer crushes this afternoon, for too long the boomer category has remained uncoveted. Who is your celebrity boomer crush? This is a safe space.

An older celebrity who you're like, you know what, they're a bit of me. You need to call us this afternoon and out yourself on 0800DIALS.M or you need to text that crush into 9696 and we will put together the list of the hottest boomer celebrities.

I have to think about this. This was an immediate reaction. We've been flooded. Flooded. With responses. The question was, who's your celebrity boomer crush? Yeah, I saw someone on TikTok talk about how Tom Hanks would be their go-to on-screen kiss if they could have a celeb kiss.

Good choice. Well, yeah, but it was interesting to me because I just thought you'd go for the usual suspects.

A lot of products people want you to sample. The good people at Cully's actually sent me a package yesterday, which I thought you and I could have some fun with. Let me read this note to you that came with it. It says, Hey Clint, we have just launched our hottest sauce yet. Eight count is packed with the world's hottest chillies. Plus for the first time, we've added ultra hot chilli extract.

Oh God. To kick up the heat even further. Can't wait to hear what you think. So I thought, Matty, this afternoon, why don't we do a little taste test on it together? Oh. I'll just describe this to you. It's arrived

in like a black box. It looks like a coffin. It looks so dangerous. Open it up. It says that it contains the Carolina Reaper versus the Trinidad Moruga Scorpion. I'll take the bottle out here. I propose to you that this afternoon we have a teaspoon of this together and then attempt a bit of karaoke.

So it's the Reaper versus the Scorpion combined together. Combined into a sauce. I mean, that just sounds like my worst nightmare. Are you good with hot stuff?

I don't know that you do. This is a terrible ad for Cully's. Well, there you go. I think that is officially the hottest sauce I've ever tasted in my life. Oh, God. My lips are tingling.

Why would anybody ever put that on their phone? Ow. Ow, it's burning. That is sadistic. Are you okay? It's burning. Oh, God, I'm sweating. We're going to take a break.

Okay. And come back. Brian Clint with Matty. Do it. Brian Clint. Brian Clint with Maddie That's Lee Matthews And running Taking over, sorry

We just thought we'd better come back on And just let everybody know That we're okay after that Are we? Man If you missed it I thought it would be fun I think I was wrong

We just attempted to eat The world's hottest chilli sauce. Why? Because it got sent to us. And we thought, great content. Yeah, we thought this would make a fun video. But we didn't think through the actual consequences of our actions, and that's on us.

For the people who know Spice, the sauce is made by Cully's. It's Carolina Reaper and Trinidad Moroga Scorpion Chilies. The two world's two hottest chilies both put together with chili extract. I've just, I'll send you this article. How to stop sting ring. Oh my God. It's real, apparently. I'm at an okay place now.

Ben gave us a lot of milk, which started to go curdley in the stomach with the hot sauce. But it was a real journey. So immediately you got the burning in the mouth. Yes. Then it started to go down the esophagus. I got a tightening of the airway. I found it hard to breathe.

Then I got the hiccups. Yeah. Then my esophagus started burning. Yes. And this is bad In the COVID era My nose started to run But I was too scared to blow it Because I don't want my fingers near my eyes

And I didn't want to bring the chilli oil Up through my nasal passages My whole hands and arms went tingly For a while there Yeah And then the worst bit Was Matty's new CEO Called him on the phone

and Matty goes, I have to answer this. Hello, hello, hello, Matty speaking. Hello, is this the end of TVNZ? And Clint's in the background just swearing profusely, retched over, bent over backwards. Ben's loaded us an instant replay. I don't know how we sounded. I haven't heard this yet.

But this was the aftermath of tasting the world's hottest chilli sauce. Okay. This is a terrible idea. I can't talk. Oh, wow. The things we do. Can I say, real MVP, Calipo Frost. Absolutely.

That's really saving my life at the moment. Time for the name game. Very easy game that you can play while you're in the car with us this afternoon. I'm going to dish out celeb names. Just one name. It'll be part of a name. You need to give me

You're very welcome. Matty, you can't beat Marie on International Women's Day. No. Although, I also can't give you a free ride on International Women's Day because you're a strong, independent woman who can easily win this game. Marie, you don't need me to go easy on you, do you?

No, not at all. I can totally take it myself. She does want some KFC, though, you know? Oh, yeah. True. So 50 KFC chicken dollars on the line. I will start dishing out names.

Oh, yep. And so we have quite interesting conversations with him. Is he a narc? On Saturday night, you and Ryan are like whispering. Don't tell the cops. Narc. We're going to go downtown. Exactly.

Do some tagging. Yeah. Because we're bad. We're bad. We're so bad. But we did have some quite interesting conversations with him about his work and what's going on. Yeah.

And the community. I've got some friends that are police officers and they have the best stories. Safer communities together. It really is true. The better work stories is a real thing. Totally. But we were actually just kind of having a mundane conversation last night about, you know, when you first start out as

a cop-off and you're doing kind of traffic cop stuff. And so I was like, oh, do you get some, do you, do you pull people up for any kind of infringements? Like, you know,

like not indicating properly or, you know, like leaving your lights on and your, inside your car. Yeah. And he goes,

what? I was like, you know, like leaving your lights on inside your car. Like if you put the light on in your car, you're not allowed to do that.

That's illegal. You mean like the interior light? The interior light. And he goes, that's not a thing. And I went, what? My mum, I swear, my mum told me when I was a kid that that was illegal. You weren't allowed to do that.

You couldn't have your interior lights on in your car. She told you the police would pull you over. Yeah. I remember being a kid and turning the light on in the car being like the worst thing you could do. Dad would be like, turn that light off right now. Yes. Right now.

Maybe there were brighter lights when we were kids or something because now it really doesn't seem like a big deal. But maybe back then there were super bright bulbs and they just distracted mum and dad. I never thought I'd get arrested for it. But you brought this up earlier and Anastasia, you said that this was a key feature of your childhood. The Lufin family believed that was a jailable offence.

Yeah, mum was hard on it. Really? Yeah, I just thought, I don't know. Why do even your parents growing up say you can't have the light on? Is it because they get distracted? Yeah, I think it must be. And then they just, to drive home the point, they say you could go to jail for this.

I remember no mum would be like, I'm going to get in trouble. Like, I'll lose my licence. Yeah. So your police flatmate has told you that that's not true? That's a lie? That's a lie. And your mum was lying to you all this time? Totally.

Bloody trace. But, I mean, as a parent myself now, I've begun employing lies left, right and center. Absolutely. Just to get kids to do what you need them to do. Not what you want them to do, what you need them to do. Yes.

Like, Tui, if you don't wash your hands they will fall off. Yes. That's what I say to her. And it may be traumatising her about hand washing, but I need her to wash her hands and she won't wash them. So if your mum really needed you to turn off the interior light, maybe the threat of the police

was what needs to happen. And it's all the classic, you know, eat your carrots and you'll be able to see better. Yeah, that was BS. Yeah. Yeah.

But it worked as a kid. I thought I had superhuman eyesight. Eat your crust, you'll get curly hair. Totally. Yeah. What else to parents? What other classics

from parents? I wonder if we can get some people on this afternoon whose parents, you found out as an adult that your parents had been lying to you all this time.

And it might be bigger than that. You know, it might be like serious. You might like, you may like, well I don't mean like

your dad wasn't your real dad. Although, I mean if it's a good story and you're happy to tell it, we'd love to hear it. Yeah, absolutely. We're busybodies. We'll hear the story. Or just urban legend ones, just mundane ones.

We'll take both ends of the spectrum this afternoon. We want you to call us on 0800 dials at M or text yours into 9696. What did your parents lie to you? What did they tell you when you were a kid? And now that you're fully grown, you know the truth. I am not alone with this car light thing. There's a lot of teats coming in. Really? Oh yeah. Oh, you've really

woken some people up today. Bree and Clint. You have blown some people's minds this afternoon. Yeah, well, it blew my mind last night. I was talking to my flatmate, who's a cop, talking about the fact that when I was little, my parents told me that it was illegal to

have your interior lights on in your car. Yeah. And I've always believed it. I always thought it was one of those things that realistically the police would never actually pull you up on. Sure. But it was there in their... They could use it if they wanted to. If they wanted to, it was in their toolbox. Yes. And then

I found out last night from my friend, not true. Total bullcrap. I was being lied to my entire life. And we are getting some amazing lies that people have been told by their parents. Some of the classics like when Mr.

Whippy plays the music, it means he's run out of ice cream. I love that one. But I loved this text. My dad told me the rumble strips on the edge of the highway was to help blind people drive. That's good dad gear, that one. So good. Because kids wouldn't think twice.

Totally. They'd go, all right, dad knows everything. Yeah. That's totally what it is. Totally. It's totally what it is. Yeah. And the ones that are great are the kids who have carried that into adult life. Absolutely. That's totally what it is. Totally. It's totally what it is. Yeah. And the ones that are great are the kids

who have carried that into adult life. Absolutely. They're never thinking about it. Totally. They go to university and they're driving with their mates in the car and they go, you know what that's for? Yeah.

Blind people. Oh, you mean the blind strips? Yeah. And they're like, they literally pull the car over and they go, what? And then you see them start to like piece it together. Wait, blind people driving in the car.

Wait, that can't... Oh, God, I'll be lying to you my entire life. How did I not know? So we're asking you for more lies that your parents have told you. Lizzie has called up. Hi, Lizzie. Hi, guys. How's it going?

Good. How are you? Good. You were raised by liars. I was, yeah. What did they lie to you about, Lizzie? So when I was a kid, I was always folding my watching.

And so my dad told me to give it a fold my watching. That's what he did to me in the World Folding Competition. I can't quite hear what Lizzie is saying. We'll come back to Lizzie. Can we see if Lizzie's on speakerphone and see if we can change that line there?

That would be good. Let's talk to Syl. Syl's here. Hi. Hi. How are you guys? Good. How would be good. Let's talk to Syl. Syl's here. Hi. Hi. How are you guys? Good. How are you?

Yours is very good, Syl. So, yeah, when I was younger, my mum used to say that if I swallowed gum, it would stick my bum cheeks together. And when I was like seven, I accidentally swallowed it and just cried and cried because I thought I'd never be able to poo again. No!

They scarred you. Yeah, that would scar you. So then did they have to then come clean and go, we've been lying to you for the last 10 years? I don't actually think she told me. I think I just like worked it out eventually because I was too scared to tell her because I thought she'd tell me off and be like,

oh my God, we have to go to the hospital now. Amazing. Stuck bum cheeks. Someone's texting and said they're from an Asian household and they were told if they didn't finish their rice, it would end up

as spots or moles on your face. Oh. If you didn't finish all of your rice. I mean, you've got to give parents props for being creative,

you know? Totally. And that's your right as parents to be as creative as you want. Lizzie's back. We've got you again, Lizzie?

Yes. Am I here? That's better. Yeah, good. What was your lie your parents told be as creative as you want. Lizzie's back. We got you again, Lizzie? Yes. Am I here? That's better. Yeah, good. What was your lie your parents told you? Okay, so my dad took a bit of fold my washing when I was a kid, told me he'd entered me in the world folding competition. In the world washing folding competition?

Yeah. So you were training for the world. How long did that last for? Because after 12 months, if I hadn't attended the World Washing Champs, I'd start to smell a bit of BS. He used to just say, oh, I've been postponed and keep holding your washing.

Oh my God. And did you get good? Were you like, I could take Cone the gold in this? Oh yeah, I was pumped. I was ready for it. Yeah, good stuff. Someone said, Mum told me if I mucked around with the vacuum, with it sucking onto my skin, it would give me warts.

I know it's not real now, but I'm slightly traumatised by it to this day. It's one of those things where you're like, I know it's not real, but I don't want to mess with it. I don't want to touch the vacuum. You associate the vacuum cleaner with warts. I get it.

Finally, Amanda, what was the lie your parents told you growing up? Hi, guys. How are you? Good. No get it. Finally, Amanda, what was the lie your parents told you growing up? Hi, guys. How are you? Good. No, it wasn't a lie for me. It was one that I told my children when they were little. Oh, you're the liar.

Yes, I'm the liar. Okay. Because I'm taking their seatbelts off when we're driving. It's quite often on the motorway. You can't stop. And you know how it beeps when they take their seatbelt off. I'll be like, it's going to get faster. And they're like, that's going to happen.

And the beeping would get faster. I'm like, quick, quick, the bomb's going to go off. The bomb's going to go off. And they'd be like, they would just move so quickly. You told them they were going to explode if they put their seatbelts back on. To be honest, it was for their own good though, wasn't it? That's a good safety message. I'll be back on their seatbelts, that's for sure.

You know you're raising a psychopath though if they take the belt off and they just stare at you and call you a bluff? And they're like, oh well mum, this is the end I guess.

See you later. Tick, tick, boom. Thanks Amanda, that's great. Someone's texted and said my mum used to tell me that wine doesn't last

overnight once it's opened. That is a good one. That is, that's quality parenting right there. Very quality parenting. And any kids out there, that's true. It's so true.

Mum needs to finish the bottle, okay? Bree and Clint. Aye. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's birthday banger. So we find out the number one song

When's your birthday? 22nd of January, 1988. All right, Leon. You were 16 on the 22nd of Jan, 2004, and this was the number one song. Yes. I reckon this is an underrated Black Eyed Peas song. It's a good one.

Yeah. Really? Yeah, you don't really hear much of it now. Yeah, you don't think of this one straight away. People wouldn't even put it in their top five, but I think it's a really good Black Eyed Peas song. Do you like it, Leon? Yep, yep.

London bridge, wanna go down like... Double Fergie for birthday banger. Double Fergie for birthday banger. I like it. I mean. This is the first song Fergie released when she went solo. And for you,

it's the song that was number one on your 16th birthday. Do you like it? Oh yeah. It's iconic. It's probably a good one for Women's Day.

Yes. True. It's iconic. True. Should we celebrate Fergie going independent for International Women's Day. Yes. True. It's iconic. True. Should we celebrate Fergie going independent for International Women's Day? You've given us something to think about. We need to decide between Jordan Sparks, the Black Eyed Peas, and Fergie Solo. What does your gut say, Matty?

My gut says Fergie, London Bridge. I think I agree with you. I think that's our winner. Rebecca, congratulations. You've just won Birthday Banger. Woo-hoo! Yay! Great energy.

Here we go. Coming straight out of 2006. This is your Birthday Banger on ZM. Are you ready for this? Oh, snap! Oh! It's me, Perky. Up here. Polo! Oh, sorry. Earlier in the show, we ate the world's hottest chilli sauce.

And it's just... Oh, I think I just got what you got. It's just hit my tummy really bad. Yes. So it travels from your mouth. First you got the mouth burn, then I got the esophagus burn, then it hit my stomach and...

This is like an hour and a half ago that we ate this. And you know what's next. It's literally just hit me in the puku. Yeah. Oh, ouch. And next up is... The next floor down. The next step.

Well, we are about to eat more food because why the hell not? It's time for another Bree and Clint taste test. We taste it so you don't have to. Hey, Google, how long until Easter? Come on, Google. Easter in Auckland is in 40 days. 40 days. 40 days. 40 days.

Wow. It's not too long away, but there's still got a few weeks to go. And yet today, in the mail, I got hot cross buns. Not just any hot cross buns, too. I like the advancements in hot cross bun technology that have come in recent years. Brioche hot cross buns, love those. Chocolate hot cross buns, love those. Cinnamon ones have been really big as well.

I haven't tried the cinnamon ones. Well, if you love two of those three things, boy, do I have something for you. Yeah, what do you got? New World has teamed up with Pix Peanut Butter to release brioche, chocolate, and peanut butter hot cross buns. Oh, my God. They sound like they should be incredible.

But some of these things you don't know until you put them in your mouth. Yeah, and some combinations just don't quite work. To celebrate International Women's Day, Anastasia has very kindly prepared some hot cross buns for us. Ben, you should have done this, man. For Women's Day, you should have stepped up and offered to go and do this. Hey, Anastasia, happy International Women's Day. Thanks, guys.

Happy Easter. And thank you for toasting our buns. No worries. We all have a hot cross bun, all four of us. So I reckon, bon appetit. Let's give these a taste test for everybody. Should a chocolate brioche Picks peanut butter

hot cross bun from New World be on your shopping list this Easter oh oh my god oh I just got the explosion of peanut butter

Anastasia, what are your thoughts? Ben? Yeah, that's nice. This is fantastic. Have you had the peanut butter burst yet? It's like a big glob of peanut butter in there. I got a top bit. You got a bit on the top? I don't think there was much peanut butter in mine.

See, I got a big explosion of peanut butter. Yeah. I mean, that's a 10 out of 10 for me. Is it like stuffed with peanut butter? Yes. It's got like a peanut butter injection inside. Well, my brioche chocolate bit was nice. But you didn't get much peanut butter? Okay.

I got the peanut butter and it's a good time. It's a good time. And it means you don't need to spread that. It's good to go. Totally. Yeah, true. All in one. Are we all about them? We're all about them. I'm all about them. There you go, everybody. Put those on your Easter shopping list.

And I say that not as a New World ambassador. I say that totally impartially as a man who just loves... I see. God, lucky they were good because I would have been

very conflicted if I had to say otherwise. See, I'm not compromised here so you're getting an honest review from me. Maddie shops at Countdown. Please welcome to the show the other co-host, yeah, our little bug, Kim Crosman.

That's the way that you're going. I was like, sure. We'll give you the great New Zealander intro, by the way. Because you are one. Even canned applause feels good. I've never had the great Oh okay Maddie's here as well

Fine Thank you I thought maybe we could focus on Kim For Women's Day But that's fine It's not about me It is It's always about you

It should always be about you That's such a weird feeling for me Happy International Women's Day by the way Yeah happy International Women's Day You're the token women on the show today Thank you We got one In honour of it, I bought you

snacks and flowers. I've really leaned into the whole reason for the day. So we get gifts from a woman on International Women's Day. I'm just leaning into the narrative. That's what I see. Totally. Good womaning, Kim. Exactly.

Very good womaning. You're here with exciting news because season three of your podcast is out. I know. Thank you so much. Yeah, very good womaning. You're here with exciting news because season three of your podcast is out. I know. Thank you so much. It's actually, it's kind of a weird feeling because it's, yes, a day to be celebrated, but at the same time, I'm basically just sharing all of my yuck and insecurities with the world. And it's a very brave podcast. It's called Pretty Depressed and you bare your soul on it.

I do. What happens in season three spoiler are you still depressed yeah yeah yeah spoiler got it for life which is kind of works well for content right like we'll just continue to fix all that's wrong with work through but yeah so i guess in season three i've kind of taken a bit of a different approach of not just talking to you know people who i admire and look up to but also uh talking to experts okay which is a really cool thing so in an episode I dropped today I talked to a self-pleasure expert which is a really terrifying episode for me because you know I'm all like flirty and dancey and stuff but when

it really comes down to any real intimacy chat I just take a prude yeah total pivot on my heels and i get it so um yeah i've never really kind of done that okay please receive it with grace and i'm kind of like i'm trying to have all the uncomfortable i feel like i'm very blessed that i'm in a very confident season oh lord may it continue or i'll regret the season of your life as well as season of your podcast so I feel confident enough and I have enough grounding currently this week that I'm prepared to kind of go through and have those uncomfortable discussions publicly so that hopefully I can help move the needle forward a bit for other people to experience those uncomfortable conversations but isn't that the whole point of your entire podcast when it first started no but it's so

much harder when it's you yes totally totally but when you started that was the whole point right was to actually just have this dialogue and a conversation about something that lots of people go through so many people relate to what you're going through but lots of people don't talk about it yeah so i'm kind of talking about my own journey but then i'm also bringing in some experts for stuff i haven't experienced I speak to a specialist who deals with ADHD and so he kind of talks about his experience but it's been a really humbling process for me to learn about some other facets of mental health that I don't personally suffer from so I can continue to walk through life and in my community as a better friend as well you're providing an important service with this podcast hopefully

yeah totally you must hear from so many people as well like that must be such a nice part of it is to actually just hear from people who say oh my god i totally get what you're going through it is cool like i i mean i also had a very public panic attack on television last year so did you yeah on treasure island so it's actually been oh of course it's kind of this cool. Oh yeah. Oh yes, of course. Actually, we've got the clip. Let's roll it. But you know, I think it's been, I feel like,

you know, those things that are so hard to walk through in the moment have actually been these really cool gifts that most people approach me with a little bit more care and ease

and people ask me all the time how I am, which is really nice. What, they like check in with you because of the podcast? Yeah, yeah.

Or like, I have more people checking in on me now than ever before because I guess they're check in with you because of the podcast? Yeah, yeah. Or like, yeah, I have more people checking in on me now than ever before because I guess they're concerned about me. Because of the title of the podcast. When things are at arm reach, it's great to have perspective on them. When they're happening to you, things feel a lot more intimate and terrifying.
