Who is Tim Payne and why is he significant in football?
Lane. Morning. How are you? Oh, great long weekend. Thanks to the King for the long weekend. Not his birthday, is it? Nah, it's just a public holiday.
What happened in the latest Super Rugby matches?
I mean, it's just an excuse, really. Yeah. But great to have the Waz on Sunday night and then just roll into Monday off. So good. I think we should give anyone that's elite, I mean, I haven't really thought this idea through, you'll be surprised to know, but I think we should give the king or people of authority actually just a day that they get to choose, and then that almost determines whether or not how popular they are.
How did the Blackcaps perform against Ireland before the Lord's Test?
So hypothetically, you get someone, like the Prime Minister of New Zealand, he takes his Friday after a... World Cup win or something like that. I think we should start implementing that. You get one a year as a leader.
What insights can we gain from the Warriors' match against the Panthers?
Well, the Labour Party did that. Matariki was their big thing.
What are the implications of PSG winning the Champions League?
They actually campaigned on a new public holiday. And good luck getting rid of that. Yeah. No, you can't get rid of that one.
How are the NBA and NHL Finals shaping up?
But, I mean, they campaigned on a holiday. Yeah, it's smart. You're right, though. There should be a red card. A red card. That's what it should be. A Prime Minister's red card where they decide, oh, tomorrow's a public holiday.
What feedback did listeners provide in the 'Yours Please' segment?
I mean, they'll be able to kick back from the private sector because it'll cost the economy a significant amount of money. Yeah, well, I don't really care about that kind of thing. But vibe-wise... Or do you think Chris Luxon comes into your flat at 6.30 in the morning banging on pots and pans and going, hey, boys, we're off to the crack? Yeah. Yeah, okay, that's good. Hey, last time we were here, Tim Payne had just cracked one million followers. He's not... He's... Blasted well past the All Blacks now. We're sitting at $2.8 million. And now sailed past $4 million. And he's sitting on about $4.2 at the time of recording. Oh, so good. It's going to keep on going because the bigger he gets, it's just like a snowball.
It's going to get bigger and bigger. By the end of the World Cup, I reckon he'll have $10 to $15 million. What is amazing about this, this changes the entire optics of the tournament for us as New Zealand now. It is now at the point where I don't know if we're going to ever experience anything like it again. We're going to be everyone's second favourite team. Yep, they've got the Painiacs, they're out there. Is that what they're calling themselves? Yeah, they call themselves the Painiacs. There's t-shirts coming out, there's absolute smoke shows on social professing their love for him. Does he ever miss us? Yeah. Yes, he does. Very long-term. His missus speaks Spanish, actually, and he was asking her.
I see what he's doing.
He was asking what the hell was going on on his socials.
Yeah.
He had to get her to read all the messages. She was translating for him. Yeah, he was going, it seems like you're taking off. You're popping off. Well, have you witnessed the absolute monomunch that is happening online right now? Every man and their dog are now doing content around it. And I mean, look, it's easy for us to talk about it since we did a YouTube video on this YouTube episode the other day that we spoke about Tim Payne for about four minutes is doing absolutely record numbers for us. So here we are again. Oh, yeah. I think it's got like 7,000 views or something like that already on YouTube only. Yeah. But the one that Joe saw over the weekend, this was your favorite one, Joe, was that Pizza Hut.
Pizza Hut.
New Zealand.
Yeah, Pizza Hut New Zealand. Pizza Hut New Zealand. Big brands are now incorporating him into their marketing strategy. How do they do that, though? You can't. They're going to be happily paying him, aren't they? Well, it's got nothing to do with Tim Payne, really. Or pizza, for that matter.
No.
It's just a guy in a Pizza Hut outfit going out and asking who the goat is. And then people scriptedly saying Tim Payne. Are they selling a goat pizza? They better be. There is nothing. There is no affiliation with... Why would you do that? Or the World Cup or anything. It's just a girl in a Pizza Hut t-shirt saying, who's the goat on Ponsonby Road?
