Show requested, so here it is. As long as you've got da-da-da-da. It's ZDM's Braynclin podcast. I came across this guy talking on a podcast where he was ripping into the Kiwis. Oh, yeah. It's something that the Kiwis say. And he says that he believes Kiwis need to stop saying this one particular word because of your accent. Oh.

He was coming for you. Right. Big time. What word do you think it might be? Um, deck. That's a good one. I was going to say six.

Six deck. Six bears on the deck. Nice. Does not go down well outside of New Zealand, does it? No. Yeah. You guys aren't right. It's not a word that I hear people.

Yeah. Like when they're impersonating a Kiwi, they don't really say this word. But now that I think about it. Yeah. Very Kiwi when you say this. Take a listen. I also heard a New Zealish.

person say the word spaghetti and that pissed me off. Spaghetti. Take this play spaghetti. Don't ever say the word spaghetti again. Spaghetti. Wow, so classy when he says it. I've never thought about it, but so classy. I also love that he called Kiwi's New Zealandish people.

Disgusting. I hate that. No, I love it. No, we are the New Zealandish. I love it. It's so good. Okay. Do you say that word? word like that? I need to say it unencumbered and uninfluenced by that guy. What are you having for dinner tonight? Clint? What do you?

Spaghetti. Oh, God. Spaghetti and meatballs. Spaghetti? Oh no. Spaghetti and meatballs. Spaghetti and meatballs. God, what about you?

It's like a spaghetti bolognaz. Yeah, you suck too. Grace? I'm going to have spaghetti and meatballs. See, she's got a bit of, she's got a little bit of, I was raised overseas. Yeah. Yeah. You got a little bit of, as we're saying, you're not a good.

As we say in New Zealand, you've got a little bit of genie Sikwa about your accent. Yeah, we don't know where she's from. No. You know? So then the high and mighty over there, Australian, half Italian, hit us with the long stringy past name. Smaghetti. Oh, whatever.

No, that is actually how she orders it. It's a nightmare when you go out for dinner with her. And she's like, yeah, I'll have a glass of the sav. The garlic bread, actually cheesy garlic bread, please. And then the splint of the spaghetti. Lams Zmaghetti Play ZM's Brian Clint
