Comes to all units, priority update on our active search. We are looking for someone analysing the defensive line, predicting the referees call, holding the nerve when the game is on the line. They are tactically minded, equipped with composure relentlessly loyal to their team. They might be unaware they can apply these instincts to a career in policing as well as the game. Do you fit the description we're looking for? New Zealand Policies are accruing now, head to the Newcop's website to get started. How dare you give up? The pyramid. This music does not make me feel bad. It's quite dramatic, isn't it? It certainly is. It's Yone Edge. It's Yone Edge. Welcome back into Mozi and Guy with Pippin Lashes and yes, it's time for the pyramid. They just made me more nervous.

Yeah, as it should. Even have Alt said this was one of the better ones, Lash. That's how you know I've done a pretty good job. I think I'll put myself on the back. Well, it won't be the judge. You haven't been here for a while, Lash? No, I haven't. The spiel. I can't even remember it. Well, the spiel. Look, team building blocks of the pyramid. It starts off easy and then gets progressively harder Pipp. So we'll start off with block one. Hopefully that's a lay out for us. Yone, I will work together to endeavour to build the pyramid, which is very, really done. There's no lives. There's no real hints on these fins feeling nice today. I might Pipps, they do. Every pyramid has to have a good foundation, Fimball. So what do you got for us today? So the pyramid today is what year did this happen? Oh, okay. So I'll give you like a sporting event. Yep. And you just got to tell me what year it occurred. How are you feeling comfortable now, you've? God, no. Okay. So yeah, fairly simple. And like you said, Lash, you always got to build a pyramid with a very good foundation. So nice and easy, a lay up to start. The all blacks win their first rugby world cup in what year?

Okay. Do you know who's one Pipp? No, I'm straight back in this to you, man. Okay. It would be 1987. Yes, Lash's, that would be correct. 1987 is of course, when David Kirk lived the William Webb Alistrofi for the first time. Number two, Grant Elliott, Grant Elliott, it's a six to beat South Africa in a cricket world cup semi-final. What year did this happen? And a piece of audio that gets played many a time on the three years since. Many times. Many times. I'm like, I was with the man yesterday. Yeah, you were actually feeling some Promo. Grant did that in 2015. Of course, did it in 2015, Lash's. I thought we were on for the double. The rugby world cup, the cricket world cup. Oh, that would have been huge. Yep. Look, yeah. Straight down the ground, Grant Elliott, Superman, Ian Smith. They went on to losing the final to Australia over across the ditch. You're going to be unfortunate.

Alrighty. Number three, the all whites go undefeated at a FIFA World Cup in what year? Was it like 2005 or something? A little bit lighter than that. Is it eight? A little bit lighter. Ten? Yes, it was. In 2014. In South Africa. In South Africa. In South Africa. But fun, but fun, it was a great World Cup undefeated only team to do so at that tournament. Yeah. Even got a snuck almost a winning it's Italy. It's a controversy going on in that game. Alright, number four. Andrew Webster's first season as Warriors head coach was what year? Oh, jeepers. 22? Yeah. Oh, no. What's the year now, 26? Yeah. So... Oh, was he with Penrith on 22 when they won that? Yeah, R. Can he come in 2003? 23? 23, yay. That's what I'm thinking.

Lock it in? Is he been there? Sean Johnson, yeah, when they... 23, 24, 25. Yeah, 23. 23, yeah. It is indeed. 2023. Stumps you a little bit, though, eh? Yeah. I feel like he's been here for longer. Yeah, time. You're already just leaving just such a great legacy behind him. Yep, recent extension as well. A huge extension. He's here for a while, which is just bloody awesome. Masal just put a blim and think of him and mounts him out a big old trophy or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's got a new statue, that's it. He's got to get a... If they win this year, they better build that man a statue. Oh, he's the best thing to happen to the Warriors for a very long time. I think Andrew Webster. I agree. Alrighty. Four blocks already built, Tim. Pip, how are you feeling? Well, thank God I got last chance. And that's okay. I'm often a zero factor in some of these pyramids as well. But both of you, I hopefully will get this. Number five, Kiwi wins the Melbourne Cup. Oh, jeepers. 19. It was definitely 19.

Yeah, yeah. 89? No, I don't want to say 89. I want to say earlier than that, eh? Yeah. I want to say 1980 or 83. Those two dates are sticking out to me for some reason. 83? Long time before I was born. Oh, yeah. 80th. Why is 1980 in my brain? I think it is 1983 Melbourne Cup. Kiwi, storm tone. 83? Yeah. Lock it in. Lock it in? Yeah. Look at you two, eh? Putting your brains together. Kiwi wins the Melbourne Cup 1983. Halfway there. Melzie would have let that one up. Oh, yeah, he would have. And he would have probably given you so much shit if you didn't know either. That's terrible. I've watched the movie and all. The brain, the brain. OK, I feel like it ramps up a little bit here, team. Right, yeah. Number six, when did team New Zealand blow an 81 lead in the America's Cup?

One of the worse sporting memories in, I'll give you, recent, if you say, I don't think that was that long. Kiwi sporting history. I was working here, so it's within like eight years. Is it? I'm sure it is. What was right before it? What would that be? Would that be three cups ago? See, if you're too use your brains and do a bit of math, math maths here. Because the cup's next year, isn't it? Ah, yes, I think so. 2027. I think that is next year. It's not as sad, isn't it, isn't it? I think so. But COVID made it a bit. I think that motor technique here. Yes, yes, yes, they might have fumbles, you're right there. I love this. I was in San Francisco, wasn't it? Yeah. In the harbour? Yeah. I've eight won. Oh, no. I can't believe it's still to this day, actually. They get like some automated thing on their boat that made the way quicker.

I can't remember. Am I right in saying that, Craig? Yeah. From what I recall, it was that there was a rule of regulation in place that you couldn't change your boat during racing, but they allowed them to do it, which caused them to win. Yeah. It was a nine on the trot. I swear, we had to put our foils up manually and they put a system in where they did it. What a minute. I don't know. Bullin' knows, that it was eight won. It was not good. It was not yours. For some reason, 2016's in my mind. 18? Earlier. About 2014. No, hold on, hold on, hold on. If we're thinking, I'm thinking. Yeah. Recent times, Finn Bull's Ricans. Esh. Yeah. Esh. Nah, I think it's 12 or 13, eh? I'm pretty sure. I was an intermediate school. That's a good hint, Eric. Yeah, that is a good hint.

Yes. Yeah, I reckon San Fran and 2013 are... 13? Don't want to go 13, purple, don't want to go 12. 13's usually an unlucky number, but it's actually pretty lucky, so for me. So that's 14, well, by the time 27 rolls round the next cup, that'll be 14 years. COVID missing it, yeah, 2013. You want to go 2013? Yeah. 2013 is correct? Yeah, that's... It's a little bit longer than I thought. Yeah, it is. I just remember it so distinctively, because I was an intermediate school when I was only there for two years, obviously. And I just remember watching it in the auditorium every morning. Thinking, this is the one we're going to win. Yeah. And then we wouldn't win. And then we blew the entire lead, so that was awesome. Six down, four to go. Right. Number seven, Lester City wins the English Premier League in what year? Oh, shhh. Where's Ricardo and you need him? Yeah, he would get this in a heartbeat. I actually knew this pretty easily off the top of the dome as well.

Yeah, football's not really me. I want to say that... So the year they lifted the trophy? The year they lifted the trophy. Yeah. Jesus, a few while ago now, actually. Hmm. One of the most ridiculous upsets, either, and sporting history room, pretty sure. For sure. Pretty sure it's number one, yeah. I reckon it'll be... Something tells me it was at around, like, when the Hounders won at around 2015-16. That's what I'm thinking. I think it'll have to be on the something there, Lester. Yeah. It could be on the something there. Was it the 15-16 season or the 14-15 season? That's what is irking me. Oh. Or I can they lifted the trophy the same year the Hounders did in 2015. What a year it can put. Ah, 2016, maybe.

What would that be? The 10-year reunion this week. And now they're down in like the second of them. Yeah, I think they... I think they got relegated back to back seasons, actually, which is pretty rare. If you were happy with 16 football, go with 16. Why not? Look at it in thin. 2016 is correct. Well done, Fillefer. 2015-16 season. That is number seven. Three to go. Right, yeah. It could be on the building of Pervett on your first show, Pervett. Who would have thought? Alrighty. And I've really boomed those blocks. LAUGHTER Australian Cricket Court ball tampering with sandpaper against South Africa. Oh, wow. What a year did that happen in Sam Lash's casey? Ah, it's a good share from Buss. And Philip Amoris, when was the sandpaper gate? Ah. GEEPERS OK, and this was in... It was in the 2000s. No, it was 2010s. Yeah. Smith and Warner have been back for ages now, pre-COVID.

I want to go something like 2000 and... GEEP. How long ago would that have been? It'd be seven or eight years ago, at least I reckon. I feel like even I reckon almost slightly longer, but it's me. Like 2016 type stuff. I might have just thought it was 2018. About eight years ago, that's kind of what feels right. Just before COVID, we're not just before, a couple of years before 20 years. Eight years ago, Smith, Warner, Smith always still going, but coming towards the back end of it, captain at the time, he would have started his career in about 2013, I reckon. I can't believe that was eight years ago. 2012, yeah. I want to lock in 2018.

Are you sure? Well, now I'm making me second guess myself. Go 2018, please. Oh, last year smart man, it was 2018. Yeah, beautiful. We talk about it in a fair, but I feel like we could bring it up on the show kind of bit. Yeah, we did. It was a joke. It does feel like it's longer, but eight years is a long time. That is. It kind of makes under one day and eight years. You've got two more to build. Roddy, yeah, how'd that happen? Lansar, I'm strong, confisors to using PEDDs with Oprah Winfrey in what year? Lashes. Lansar. Lansy, lansay. What year was that? So has Oprah Winfrey interviewed? Correct. When he confessed the two parts, might have even met a documentary around the same time. She said it would be, um, stopped the sporting world. Good decade. Oprah's been off the screens for... She has? Yeah. A while. It was like 2006, kind of, times.

A little bit later, Eric. A little bit later. You know what we could do here? What's that? Take a quick break, come back. Okay. Give you another four or so minutes to think about it, and then we'll resume and see if you can build... Right. ...the last two blocks of pyramid on the other side of our ID. Millsian guy here on Spawnation, lashes and pep trying to build the pyramid. We back in the tick. Yes, so it's Millsian guy, but today it is a pip and lashes, and we're building the pyramid. So what have we got two to go, Finn? Yep, two to go. You've done bloody good. What's the thing, again, Finn? Just remind the listeners of this journey. What year did this happen in? And your question number nine is... Lance Armstrong confesses to using Pee-Gee-D's with Oprah Winfrey. What year did this happen? So that interview with Oprah Pippin, I was chatting during the break. Hmm. And we are thinking what, Pupp? We're thinking 2014 because we think Oprah's been off here for at least around five years, and she was definitely not coming to the end.

That was a big headlines. Maybe 2014. So you're going with? Yeah, you're smiling. 2014. Yeah, we talked about it, we discussed it. We think 12 years ago. It's been a while. I think would be surprised how quickly it's gone. Hmm. Process of elimination. Yeah. Let's go 2014. It's 2013. Oh, damn it. Jeez. I said 13's been so a cap, they're twice. Yeah. 2013. Unfortunate team. Theory close. Oh, geez. Oh, that's a way. That's a way. I know, Brad. Just texted in 2013, Brad. Quick to it. Oh, he's so nice, Brad, yeah, that's a shame. Do you want to know number 10? Yeah, get... Oh, we would have thought. Number 10, I wanted the year Stephen Adams was drafted into the MBA. Now, Finn would know this in a sleep.

He would. That would... Stephen Adams now would be a... What? What would be a 10-year veteran in the MBA? Well, Stephen Adams in that OKC team in 2000... What, 16? Uh, the one that lost the finals to... I don't know, he lost the finals to Finn Bulls. LeBron? Yeah. Was that Miami or Cleveland? Miami. OK, so Stephen Adams wasn't in that. He got drafted to the O'Clamour to Nick. Yeah. The headby... Headby 2016. You bit off? Am I? 2013. Oh, I'm back to back. He's been around, he's been around on Stephen Adams. He had some serious coin. So, he'd go to the finals. No, no, because they went in 2012. Well, they're thunder, yeah. And then they lost to... Yeah, LBJ and the... That's right.

And the heat? And he was the year later. He was? Same draft as the biggest bus in MBA history in Athens. And he'd been it. OK. Yeah, there you go. She's at some Korean out, 30 years. Oh, yeah. Rotable with injuries, but he stuck around. Oh, Steve, though. Make good cash. Oh, yeah. Serious cash, actually. Uh, bugger. Yeah. You were very close. But, yeah, try to throw... Try to throw you off with back to back 2-13. Nah, that's good. Lisfen, Bols, well done. Thank you. Very good.
