Starting point is 00:00:00 The best bets of ZDM's Brian Clint. My brother's partner recently on an overseas holiday proposed. No, your partner's brother. What did I say? Your brother's partner proposed. To who? To him. My brother's also getting married at the end of the year.
Starting point is 00:00:18 He proposed to her. No, my partner's brother rather proposed to his partner. Is this his keeper? Don't confuse me anymore. Listen to me. I'm already struggling. Luke, I am your father? Anyway, he proposed.
Starting point is 00:00:30 His partner lost the ring in the ocean an hour later. Yeah. So we're asking you guys this afternoon. Is that a record? Is that a record? Where did you lose the engagement ring? It was in Italy. He'd been eating olives and his hands were all oily.
Starting point is 00:00:44 The ring just slipped off. Straight off. Straight out. Let's see what we can get. Paige has called up on 0800 dials. G'day, Paige. Hi, Paige. Hello.
Starting point is 00:00:55 Someone lost a ring boogie boarding, Paige. Yeah, what a way to do it. What a way to do it. It's not quite an hour, but it is in the ocean. My husband lost his wedding ring about a month after we got married. And it was in the ocean because he had the little boogie board strap around his wrist for safety. Yeah. And it pulled off and pulled the ring off. Wow.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Paige. And it was quite horrible. Paige, can I ask you? When your husband straps on that boogie board strap and he gets in that ocean. He's got those short little flippers on. And he boogie boards like he's. And he's got his rash vest on.
Starting point is 00:01:32 Life depends on it. What does it do to you, Paige? I've never been more in love with the rash vest as well. Ladies love a surfy guy. Do they love a boogie guy? I love a safety man with his thumb block. Yeah, yeah. Has he got one of those little ocean hats with the buckle underneath his chin? Do they love a boogie guy? I love a safety man with his sunblock. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:48 Has he got one of those little ocean hats with the buckle underneath his chin? Nobody does have the little shoes. Has he got a reef shoe? Yes, he does. But you know what? He's an engineer, so it's about practicality and safety. Nothing hotter than a reef shoe, I always say. Can I just check, Paige?
Starting point is 00:02:05 Was he a boogie boarder before you married him or is that a post-marriage development? He was. I knew what I was getting into. Okay, so long as he was up front. Paige, another question about the boogie boarding. Have you ever been on an overseas holiday where he's had to bring the boogie board? We haven't quite got to that level yet.
Starting point is 00:02:23 I might have to reconsider at that point. But the worst part of the whole thing was we thought, we were so flustered, we went and got a metal detector to try and find it. Oh yeah. Obviously not thinking that through because the sand at the beach is full of iron. Yeah. It just goes off. He ended up
Starting point is 00:02:39 just looking like a dick. He already looked like a dick because he was boogie boarding, but then you looked like a dick as well. Yeah, yeah. I love it, Paige. Shout out to the boogie boarding community. We were half joking. Half joking.
Starting point is 00:02:53 We were half joking. Half joking. Let's talk to Tanya. Hi, Tanya. Hi, Tanya. Hi. Who was the one that lost the ring, Tanya? My husband.
Starting point is 00:03:02 Where did he lose it? In the ocean. In the ocean again? About two days after we got married. Two days after you got married? Yes. Was he boogie boarding as well, Tanya? No. I'm not sure we would have been married if he was boogie boarding. Yeah. It's gone, right? In the ocean it's gone. It's not coming back. No. We got it back.
Starting point is 00:03:27 What? Yes. So we went to Rarotonga, and we were on the Captain Thomas boat cruising. Yeah. And the guys actually dived in because I was like, this is it. Like, our marriage is over. Like, it's gone already. Bad omen.
Starting point is 00:03:43 Yeah. And, no, they dove in and found it, came up with it. Wow. I know. That is incredible. That is service. Yeah. They've gone above and beyond. And probably the reason my husband's still alive.
Starting point is 00:03:59 I was going to say, they saved his ass. He's like, thank you, guys. Thank you. Big tip. It's like, guys,, guys. Thank you. Big tip. He's like, guys, you need to come through. Finally, Bianca. Hi, Bianca. Who lost the ring and how quickly?
Starting point is 00:04:13 Oh, my God. So on the night of the wedding at the reception. You're kidding. The night of the wedding. You or them? What's that? Who lost it? You or your partner?'s that? Who lost it? You or your partner?
Starting point is 00:04:27 My husband Bianca It's all men Bianca It's been all men Bianca level with me I know Was he boarding you boarding?
Starting point is 00:04:35 No but we were close to the beach You were close to the beach Level with me Bianca How many jars had your husband consumed? How many drinks? We'd pretty much lost count at that point of the night. Yeah, right. Did it show up, the ring?
Starting point is 00:04:51 And did you make all of the guests get down on their hands and knees to look for it? Well, I didn't know. They kept it a secret from me. So it was him and his best man. And his best man said, look, I'll come back in the morning. I'll have a hunt around and we'll try and find it. And so he dragged his partner out of bed in the early hours and they went hunting for this ring and they found it in the middle of this big paddock.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Oh my God. The old thing behind the restaurant where they got married. That's solid best friending right there. Oh, I know, right? And then they snuck into our hotel room while I was in the shower. I was like, oh, here's the ring. They returned it to him so he didn't even have to get out of bed. That is...
Starting point is 00:05:32 That is... That is such good best manning. I know. I know. And then they told me that afternoon what happened. Yeah, it's all good by then, eh? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:43 Just as they were heading out for a boogie board. Yeah, exactly. And then everyone could go off and boogie board in peace. With no worries. I think if the body glove company are listening this afternoon, they need to develop, so they've got a safety strap for your wrist, an extra strap that you can strap your little wedding ring in.
Starting point is 00:05:59 That's a great idea. And it would make you look even cooler. That's a great idea. You're on to something here. Thank you. I thought so, Bianca. Okay, thank you very much. Brainclinch. The best bits. We're talking about the real reasons you don't want to go on a second date. Maybe it's a third date with people.
Starting point is 00:06:17 But what is the fake reason also that you tell that person? You tell them something often to protect their feelings. Yeah. Or because you just don't want to get into a confrontation with someone that you don't intend to see again. Yeah. And then the real reason sits in the background and that's the one that you tell your friends. Like this text message here that we've received. Loving the honesty. They said real reason. Oh sorry fake reason. Called it off because she had the same name as my ex. She actually did. Which is a weird reason but that's the reason they gave. Which I mean, yeah, I've
Starting point is 00:06:45 heard that reason before. Real reason. Had fugly as feet and her house was a pigsty. Yeah, see, that's hard to tell someone, you know? We asked to be honest. We really asked for honesty. Yeah, we did and you gave it to us. Wendy's caught up. Hi, Wendy.
Starting point is 00:07:04 Hi, Wendy. Hi, Wendy. Hi. Hi. Tell us, have you done this before where you give a fake reason, but there's a real reason behind it? You don't want to go on a second date? Yeah, definitely the phone thing. But what I used to have set up is I did shift work, and it was 24-7, seven days a week that you were on shift.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Yeah. So I used to get a work colleague used to ring me 20 minutes into a date. If it was going well, I didn't answer. If I really didn't want to be honest to the person, they didn't like them, I'd answer the phone and then tell them that I unfortunately had come out with work spam keys and so work urgently needed them and I had to end the date. Because you had the keys.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Oh, that's good. Because obviously we've heard the one where you're like an emergency. There's an emergency. Wendy, I want to test your acting ability right now, okay? Pretend you're on a date. Wendy, you and I are on a date. You and Clint are on a date and I'm going to call you. You're not enjoying it.
Starting point is 00:08:01 Okay. Okay, and yeah, I really think you should consider getting into cryptocurrency, Wendy. Do you have it? Ring, ring, ring, ring. Hello? Yeah, it's me. I'm ringing you because obviously you've picked up, so the date's not going well. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Really? Oh, shit. Not again. Oh, my God. Yeah. Yeah. I'm serious. No, you've got to get them into the doctors.
Starting point is 00:08:26 Yeah. Okay. Sorry. I will be there in, where am I now? It'll be about 20 minutes. All right. I'm so sorry. I'll come right now.
Starting point is 00:08:34 Okay, I'll come pick you up. All right. See you, mate. Bye. Oh, it was good. Hey, who was that, Wendy? Who was that? But the worst thing is.
Starting point is 00:08:44 Oh, she's out of character now. She's broken character. She can't go back into it. I'm out of character. That was good, Wendy. Wendy, we were still on a date here, okay? You needed to follow through. But then someone did it to me, and then I didn't like it
Starting point is 00:08:58 because I knew he'd just been at work, and it wasn't going well. You've got to taste your own medicine. Oh, my God, I've got to go back to work. And I'm like, oh shit, this is terrible. You said don't bullshitter, bullshitter. You called him out about it. You're like, I know what you're doing. Someone said their fake and real reason.
Starting point is 00:09:16 I said my grandma had died and we were really close. So I wasn't emotionally stable enough to date at that time. I actually didn't want to go on a second date because of the fact that they ate their own boogers. It gave me the ick. They also used a hanky, which I find disgusting. Wait. Please keep me anonymous. Wait.
Starting point is 00:09:34 Did they find all that out on a first date? How did they find out they ate their own boogies? Because they had a hanky. So they must have taken it out of their pocket. No, the boogers thing. Yeah, and then maybe one on the finger went into the mouth. Who is doing that? Claudia's dry reaching out there. Who is doing
Starting point is 00:09:52 that? This person wants to remain anonymous. Hi, anonymous. Hi, anonymous. Hello. Tell us, what was the fake reason you gave someone you didn't want to go on a second date, and what was the real reason? So the fake reason I gave was the typical, oh, there's no spark. Yeah, it's a good one.
Starting point is 00:10:09 It's a classic. That's the go-to. Yep. Yep. The real reason is that he had, like, the sort of old man style hair where he's, like, bald at the top and he's got, like, wispy sides. Oh, he's got the hair around the bottom. Wispy sides.
Starting point is 00:10:24 Yeah. And then the bald on the top. He should have just shaved it all. In the business, we call that. Oh, he's got the hair around the bottom. Wispy sides. Yeah. And then the bald on the top. He should have just shaved it all. In the business, we call that the friar tuck. The friar tuck. Yeah, and it was a blind date, so I didn't know what he looked like. And I'm assuming from the sound of what you're saying, you don't have a problem with bald guys.
Starting point is 00:10:41 It's just the way. No. The old man haircut. It's just the keeping the fluffy. No, it was just that. Yeah, it was just that combination. It's just the way. No. The old man haircut. It's the keeping the fluffy. No, it was just that. Yeah, it was just that combination. It was just, it was an ick. Yeah, no, I get what you're saying.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Do you reckon in any world you could have just been like, look, it was the haircut for me. If you shaved off the sides, I think, you know, or you just can't do it, can you? I wanted to tell him, but I just... It's not your place, really, is it? It's not your problem. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Oh, poor guy. What do they say? Not my clown, not my circus or something. Yes. Not my monkey, not my zoo. Maybe. I don't know. Thanks, Anonymous. Hey, Anonymous, thanks for being honest Maybe. I don't know. Thanks, Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:11:27 Thanks for being honest with us. We appreciate it. We appreciate it. Feels good to be honest. Someone's texted us. They didn't give the fake reason that they gave, but the real reason they didn't want to go on a second date is because he didn't have a manual car. Really? That's an interesting one. That girl is looking for a man who can do hot laps
Starting point is 00:11:45 And the boy in the automatic He just ain't it The best bets We're asking you the question Where's your dead pet? What do you do with them? There's a lot of options now Including humans
Starting point is 00:11:58 There's more options than just Putting a human in the ground or cremating Oh yeah true You can get planted under a tree. Have you seen those ones? No. Yeah. Well, they still cremate you, I believe.
Starting point is 00:12:09 And then they put you in a pot and then they plant a tree on top of you. Oh, that's quite nice. And then, yeah, and it comes pre-made and then you can put that tree in the ground when it's mature. Yeah, right. I'd rather be put in a firework. You want to go in a firework? You don't know where you'd end up, though.
Starting point is 00:12:24 You'll go in the wind. I'm dead. That's a firework. You want to go in a firework? You don't know where you'd end up, though. You'll go in the wind. I'm dead. That's a fair point. You know? It's a very fair point. You need to be dramatic. We're not asking about people, though. We're asking about pets.
Starting point is 00:12:33 What did you do with them? Did yours go somewhere interesting? Amy's here. Hi, Amy. Hi, Amy. Hi. First of all, sorry for your loss. What sort of animal are we talking about?
Starting point is 00:12:42 A horse. A horse? Oh, jeez. Okay. What are the options when it comes to horse? lost, what sort of animal are we talking about? A horse. Oh, jeez. Okay. What are the options when it comes to horse? I remember when our ponies that we had as kids, so we had two ponies and they were in love and one pony died and my dad had to dig a hole with the backhoe out in the paddock and he put the pony in the hole and buried her.
Starting point is 00:13:01 And then the other one died of a broken heart like two weeks later. Oh, that's horrific. And then he buried him next to her. Yeah. With a backhoe. Yeah. But you only had to dig a mini hole. Because it was a pony. Because it was a pony. Yeah. Amy, what happened to your horse? Well, she was 30 years old and I had her since
Starting point is 00:13:20 she was two, so 28 years. She was 30, Amy? Horses live to 30? She lived to 30, yeah. Wow, that's incredible. And she died in her sleep of natural causes, which was the most best outcome. But it was still upsetting anyway. She died and she did get buried in a hole, but about four months later it was my birthday and my sister got a little miniature version
Starting point is 00:13:51 of her knitted by a lady with the same colours as the horse, which is an unusual colour, and put the tail, for the real tail, she'd cut off some of my dead horse's tail and used it for the mane and the tail. Oh, that's quite cute, Amy. Very thoughtful from your sister. Did you love that? I do.
Starting point is 00:14:11 I do love it. Yeah, so it's just like a little piece of your horse there with you. Thanks, Amy. That's unique. Haven't heard of that before. Cam Ansell from The Night Show came into the studio before and said a friend of mine, when her dog passed away, had it taxidermied.
Starting point is 00:14:27 Yeah. And then had it taxidermied so it looked like it was rollerblading and then put rollerblades on all of its feet and then used to drag it around like she was walking it. Is that a real story? That's what he said. Is that the dog from Scrubs?
Starting point is 00:14:41 Look, I'm saying that's a real story. Wow, that's one sick dog. By the way, the average horse lives for 25 to 30 years. In rare cases, domestic horses have lived into their 50s and 60s. I've never heard of that. I thought they lived like maybe 23, 24. Yeah. That's what I thought.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Charlotte's here. Hi, Charlotte. Hi, Charlotte. Hi. Sorry for your loss. What sort of animal are we talking about? A cat. A cat, okay.
Starting point is 00:15:08 What did you do with the cat? Bonsa passed away, Charlotte. The cat went into the deep freezer. Are they still there, Charlotte? No. Okay. They were there for about six years, though, in the freezer. You had a dead cat in the freezer for six years?
Starting point is 00:15:26 Yes. You said cats. Were there multiple cats in the freezer? No, just one. Okay. Just one. And then after, you know, obviously there was a time where you had to do something about the dead cat in the freezer.
Starting point is 00:15:37 What did you do? It went into the ground, so we moved house. Oh, you were just waiting until you moved to the right place. Yeah. Mum knew we were moving and she wanted the cat to be in the right place. Yeah. Did anybody accidentally come across the cat and have a bit of a minor heart attack? Well, I was quite a weird child.
Starting point is 00:15:58 And I used to... You didn't take it out and play with it, did you? You didn't use to take it out. No. I hope it was labelled really well because you didn't want it out and play with it, did you? You didn't use to take it out. I hope it was labelled really well because you didn't want mum going down there after a few bloody vinos going, I'm going to make that rabbit shirt.
Starting point is 00:16:13 No, I used to take it out and tell people that it was a birthday cake for my mum and then I'd open it and it was a cat. Charlotte. You were a weird cat. You were dark, Charlotte. Yeah, I was. Psych, dead cat. I love it. Thanks. Charlotte. You were a weird cat. You were dark, Charlotte. Yeah, I was. Psych.
Starting point is 00:16:26 Did cat. I love it. Thanks, Charlotte. So dark. Did you read the text about the dog? No. Someone said, my friend's mum had her dog made into a rug. After it died, it got skinned.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Not the head. I believe it was a border collie. Oh. Can they do that? It's. Oh. Can they do that? It's too much. Can they do that? Megan, round us out. What sort of animal are we talking about?
Starting point is 00:16:53 Hi. Hi. Oh, my God. This is Ed. First time calling. Wait, wait, wait. What did you just say? First time caller.
Starting point is 00:16:59 Sorry. Yeah. Are you a first time caller? First time caller. Yeah. First time caller. Oh, Megan. Yeah. Are you a first-time caller? First-time caller. Yeah. First-time caller. First-time caller. Oh, Megan.

Starting point is 00:17:25 Oh, my God. We had that made just for. This is the first time this has ever happened to us. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. We had that made just for you. That made me blush. That was exciting. Oh, my God. Now to really drop the tone, what happened to your dead animal? Okay, so this is like, there's really two quick stories. One's slightly traumatic, but the one's less traumatic.
Starting point is 00:17:40 There's also a horse. Yeah. My friend designed a horse when I was younger, and when he passed away, we actually made a horse of a tail into paintbrushes. horse. Yeah. My friend designed a horse when I was younger, and when he passed away, we actually made a bit of a horse, of a tail into paintbrushes. Okay. Yeah. Right.
Starting point is 00:17:50 You painted the horse. Okay, and what's the other one? Yeah. And so this is slightly traumatic, but I was really young. One of my rabbits passed away. Yeah. And I didn't know where it went,
Starting point is 00:17:59 and then a few weeks later, I went to go put something in the compost, and I noticed some fur. Oh, no. And I found out my dad had go put something in the compost, and I noticed some fur. And I found out my dad had put the rabbit in the compost. Dad? Dad, not cool, Dad. The music really doesn't match the story, does it? No.
Starting point is 00:18:18 My dad put my dead rabbit in the compost. Yeah. It's dead. Put my dead rabbit in the compost. I've got a rabbit in my compost. It's dead. So I forced him to bury even the chickens in the garden from then on. Oh, good on you, Megan. Both ripping stories. So why haven't you called till now?
Starting point is 00:18:39 You should have called way earlier. Now, I'm actually profoundly deaf, so it's really hard to talk on the phone. So this is really serious.

Starting point is 00:24:51 The best bets. I'm just telling you a story that might save your life one day where a couple couldn't figure out what the fishy smell was coming from their bedroom. Turns out it was an electrical fault in one of the power sockets. Someone text through and said this happened to Vaughan while he was doing his renovations. Really? Must be like quite a
Starting point is 00:25:12 common thing. Yeah. Well, that is good advice then. I'm glad I know it now. Can you imagine people looking around in that room for ages. This might be a dream. I'll be like, babe, come here. I've got to sniff you. Smell something fishy. Sniff you all over. Sniff check.
Starting point is 00:25:25 We asked what's the mystery smell. Someone texted and they said, not a mystery, but one time my brother saved, in quotation marks, a mouse from a cat and it got away from him and hid in my car and it died somewhere else in the car. It absolutely reeked for four months. I sprayed air freshener, Febreze, I burned incense inside my car.
Starting point is 00:25:45 I tried everything and I couldn't get rid of it until it completely decomposed, I guess. I had to drive around with my head out the window for the first couple of weeks and then windows down for the next three months through winter. Nothing worse than a bad smelling car. Yeah. You know, because there's no getting away from it. Yeah. It is just there for life.
Starting point is 00:26:06 Let's go to the phone. Let's talk to Tracy. G'day, Tracy. Hi, Trace. G'day. How are you going? Good, thanks. How are you doing?
Starting point is 00:26:13 Hello, mate. What was the mystery smell for you, Tracy? Oh, it was a dead rat. Every time I came into the living area, I'd be like, there's a smell. And I'd be like, oh, maybe someone just farted. Days went by, and every time I came in the house, I'm like, there's a bit of a smell. Yeah, there it is. It would get really strong in the lounge.
Starting point is 00:26:39 And then I'm like, oh, no, there's something wrong here. So I started hunting everywhere. Under the couches, there's something wrong here. So I started hunting everywhere. Under the couches, there's something wrong. Went in behind the curtain that was next to the TV, and there was this big dead rat. Oh! The cat must have brought it in and partially killed it, and it must have crawled in behind the curtain and died.
Starting point is 00:27:02 Isn't it so frustrating, Tracey, when you know, you're like... There's something here. My mum used to go through it all frustrating Tracy when you know You're like My mum used to go through it all the time when we were kids She'd be like there's something dead in here Where is it But the worst Part was It had been in there for days
Starting point is 00:27:18 It had been degrading for want of a better word And it had left this Dark brown stinking Dead rat juice on the curtain. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Those curtains are poked. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, they're stuffed.
Starting point is 00:27:31 Yeah. She's supposed to have to ripple the carpet up as well. Thanks, Trace. Oh, what a nightmare. Someone texted through and they said, I found raw chicken in my car after being in there for two weeks. Fell out of the grocery bag.
Starting point is 00:27:47 That's rank. Francesca's on her $800 at him. Hi, Francesca. Hi, Francesca. We're dry reaching in here, but what was the mystery smell? It was my son. He bought a car. About three weeks later, there was a real fishy smell in it. So they had to look through everything
Starting point is 00:28:04 under everything, inside the cushions, covers, and they couldn't find it. Right. It was worse. So they took it to the electrician. Sorry, the mechanic. Yeah. He said, no, no, no, take it to an auto electrician. The auto electrician said, no, no, you're going to have to take the panels off the inside of the car.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Yeah. So they started with the boot and took the bottom off, nothing, took the side off and there was a crab that was probably bigger than 60 centimetres in width that was dead in it. There was a dead crab inside the car? Yeah, inside the panel.
Starting point is 00:28:37 I have seen people on the internet put a fish, like a dead fish inside the door panel of a car as like a prank before? Do you think that the people who sold this car to your son with a crab in the door as a joke? They could have done. We don't know.
Starting point is 00:28:54 Yeah. Not the first time someone's caught crabs in a car either. No. Yeah, that's true. You can have experience, eh? Yeah. Yeah. No comment, friends.
Starting point is 00:29:03 That is the crabs that you want your son to come home with, though, isn't it, Francesca? Yeah. Wow, his wife wouldn't have been happy. Thank you, Francesca. One more call from Zoe on Mystery Smells. Hey, Zoe. Hi, Zoe. How's it going?
Starting point is 00:29:18 Can you top that, Zoe? What was the mystery smell? Well, I didn't get crammed, but I... Congratulations. Yeah. Mystery smell was a dead bird. Oh, no. Not only a dead bird, but a very heavily megatized bird.
Starting point is 00:29:35 Oh, megatized. What a great word. Where was it, Zoe? It was sitting under my couch. Well, it wasn't sitting. It was dead under my couch. And my it wasn't sitting. It was dead under my couch. And my son had spilt some milk on the carpet probably about four weeks prior. So I'm sitting there cleaning the carpet thinking it's the milk.
Starting point is 00:29:55 It's the milk. Right, yeah. And this went on for about four weeks. And I don't know what made me decide to do it, but I split the couch. And I was just like... With the maggots and everything. Oh, with the maggots. It's over.
Starting point is 00:30:09 It is game over when there's maggots. Did you see the text about the chicken bone? No. Did you see the one about the dog? You go with the chicken bone. There's a couple of good ones. This one is crazy. It says,
Starting point is 00:30:20 Our family friend's son had a very gross smell about him for a couple of weeks. The boy did? Yeah. Okay. He was only three and they couldn't work out what it was. They took him to the doctor and they found a small chicken bone up his nose. It had rotting chicken meat on it.
Starting point is 00:30:37 Inside him? In his nose. Oh, thank God you found that. Otherwise you'd be like, sorry, you have to live outside now. It's over for you. We'll keep feeding you, but you have to live outside now. It's over for you. We'll keep feeding you, but you have to live outside. Can you imagine? Stink boy.
Starting point is 00:30:49 You're like, what's wrong with Johnny? He just stinks at the moment. One other text, someone said our dog kept coming inside for three weeks smelling horrific. It turns out she had found where dad buried the fish carcasses and was rolling around in them for the summer. No. That'd be a happy dog. There's nothing worse. And dog owners who have the dogs that roll and stuff, like my dog, Meryl,
Starting point is 00:31:16 so she'll go up to something dead and then she'll do this weird flip thing where she wants to get it on the back of her neck and it reeks. The dog, the people are like, there's a really fishy smell in here. Weird flip thing where she wants to get it on the back of her neck and it reeks. The dog, the people are like, there's a really fishy smell in here. And the dog goes, oh, maybe it's an electrical problem. I think there's an electrical fault. I think your wiring is melting. I think that's a fire.
