The ZM Podcast Network. Party after the party after the party. Hi everybody, welcome to the Brianne Clint After Party Podcast where Claudia finally has the Rubik's Cube that she needs to solve to be freed from prison. It's been delivered. It came pre-solved too, am I done? No, this is what we've talked about.

Can I mess it up? Oh, you want to scramble it? Yeah, I want to scramble it. We need to mess it up together because your brain will do it in a certain way that you won't be talked about. Can I mess it up? Oh, you want to scramble it? Yeah, I want to scramble it. We need to mess it up together because your brain will do it in a certain way that you won't be sure about. I feel bad. I don't want to mess it up crazy because you can mess it up really, really bad. Can you?

Yeah. I didn't know that. Ooh, Claudia. And I want to be nice to Claudia. I want to give her a chance. Like, we'll mess it up. But did you know that? I think Claudia's going to thrive in prison.

A friend of mine who's, like, really good at Rubik's Cubes told me one time, they're like, you can really. Just do one turn each. No, mess it up. I need a challenge. Come on. Get out of there. There's every chance that Claudia will mess it up too.

I absolutely will. Oh, it feels new and slippery. I have no idea what I'm doing. So no matter what you do, it's not going to be as bad as what I'm going to do. Okay, you ready? Where do you get a Rubik's Cube from these days? This one's from the warehouse. Oh, yeah? Just that little game shop. Imagine how much

they would have made of these things. Well, do they own the patent or can anybody make a Rubik's Cube? Yeah, they'd own it. Well, I think other brands make very similar things, but they're slightly different, so maybe they're different enough. Maybe it's just the name and the shape. Have you guys seen the hardcore ones where it's like a million?

Yeah, there's one on here that's got one, two, three, four, five squares on each side, on each line. So five by five. Yeah, have you seen the one that's like – 25 on each side. Oh, my God. Have you seen the one that's 100 on 25 on each side. Oh my God. Have you seen the one that's 100 on each side? No.

100? Yeah. Oh. So 10 and 10 to make 100. Yeah, probably. It's huge. It's like this big. It's crazy.

I should have bought the mini. It's like four by four or two by two. No, you don't want to- Hey, you want to do this properly. The mathematics involved in multiples, Or two by two? No, you don't want to, hey, you want to do this properly. The mathematics involved in multiples, like just adding one row and the number of possibilities that adds to it always blows my mind. I love how they've taken the stickers off and now it's like you can't. Can't peel the stickers off.

We used to do that as kids. You just move one sticker so you can never solve it. Oh, it's begun. I saw this video the other day yesterday that said that um if you have a hundred dollars i'm talking about the multiples and how things multiply each time like the rubik's cube if you have a hundred dollars you are only 37 consecutive hands of blackjack if you can win 37 games of blackjack in a row you'll have the same amount of money as Elon Musk. What? How many rounds? 37.

That doesn't seem that much. No, it doesn't. I think I've messed it up pretty bad already. I'll just give it a couple of turns. Give it two or three. And then I was like, oh, that doesn't sound too bad. I've got $100. So I could do that.

Do you know how to play blackjack? Yeah, vaguely. I love blackjack. And I was like, I Googled, what are the odds of somebody winning 37 hands of blackjack And I was like I googled What are the odds Of somebody winning 37 hands of blackjack In a row The odds

Are One in 4.5 billion So not zero Isn't that Yeah That's the gambler's mentality Yeah

That's the gambler's mentality And that's how I got into this mess But can you imagine The nuts It's probably better Stop Oh yeah I'll stop We want to give her a chance Okay Can you imagine the nuts? It's probably better. Stop. We want to give her a chance.

Okay. Can you imagine the nuts you'd have to have when it came time to make the 37th bet? Because you have, by that stage, you then have, I don't know. Billions. You have $20 billion. You have to put $20 billion on one hand. On one hand. You just wouldn't.

Surely you'd leave. It's probably better odds than the lotto. Nah. Do you know that for sure? I wouldn't be playing lotto if my odds were 1 in 4.5. Don, look up your odds in the lotto. Hey, Google. What are the chances of winning the New Zealand lottery?

According to Lotto NZ, whether the jackpot is big or small You have the same chance of winning Powerball always offers you the same one In 38.3 million chance to win first division One in 38.3 million 38.3 million That's a lot

So much better than one in 4.5 billion That's so much though Like 38.3 million. Yeah, I'm fine with that. I'm fine with that. It's a small thrill, you know? It's a little... How much do you reckon you've spent on Lotto?

Oh, you always ask this. You always ask me this. Not more than a couple of grand a year. A year? A year! Oh, I don't know. Well, let's work it out. No. You could give me a couple of grand and I'll give you

nothing back. It's the same outcome. Or she'll give you half back and you make half the money. Yeah, perfect. I'm not interested in winning small. I'm looking to win $10 million. Okay. True. Is $10 million big to you? Is that the big I regard $10 million as the number that won't ruin my life.

You know? Right. It's enough to do all the things that I want to do, but it's not that won't ruin my life. You know? Right. It's enough to do all the things that I want to do, but it's not enough to really ruin your life. Yeah, I see what you're saying. So let's work it out. What's the big number for you, Claude? 10's good, but I feel like my partner and I have talked about it.

We're not really buying any tickets anyway, but 20 is like where we start thinking about it. When you start arguing. Yeah. What about Pixie, film producer? Is she listening? What's a big number like big number in the lotto for you to win? Oh, as high as you can

get, right? She wants it all. I think if it's above 20, that's... Above 20 is like big deal. In lockdown, when there was nothing fun to do at all, I was playing twice a week. There were two draws a week. I was playing both.

Had 12 bucks a ticket, so $24 a week. Yeah. Times 52. Oh, I was way off. I was way off. How much? $1,248.

You weren't that far off. You said a couple of grand, so you were right on the money. Yeah, that's fine. That's fine. That's fine. Do you want to say it again? We almost believe you.

$100 a month for the chance at winning it all. Anyway, I don't play twice a week anymore. How often do you play now? I'm playing twice a week over summer. You sound like you've got a problem. Nah. And that's not fun to joke about. Yeah.

So we'll leave you alone. All right. What do I get if I do the Rubik's Cube? That's a great question. Or win Lotto. Or is it just that I get out of metaphorical? No, no, no. This is a social experiment.

Nah, she's got to get something, like a little something. We're trying to figure out. You said that you reckon you've got better odds so it goes back to the original thing brie's proposition was would you rather commit to one year of prison and know you get out on the one you get out at the one year or take a deal that says you can get out as soon as you solve a rubik's cube claudia has gambled yeah on the belief that she can solve this rubik's cube in less than one year and get out sooner. So we're going to find out. So I just win. You get your freedom.

I get nothing like Clint's lotto tickets. You, we will buy you lunch at the pub the day that you complete it. Can I pick where? You can pick where. Yes, okay. That's a good deal. You need to give her some incentive. Like, she's not actually in prison.

Like, if you were in prison, that's a good incentive You need to give her some incentive Like she's not actually in prison Like if you were in prison That's a good incentive To get the fuck out Lunch at the pub is a pretty good incentive if you're in prison too Fuck I've seen Shawshank Redemption The things those guys did for two cold beers each My god That movie was on TV the other night

That's one of my all time favourite films You can't have a favourite film because you've seen three. I've seen that one, though. It's my favourite. If the prize is cold beers, it could be a 12-pack, and every month I don't do it. Take a beer out. Yeah, take a beer out.

We drink it in front of you. Oh, don't mind that. Don't mind that at all. The Rubik's Cube is set. Okay. It's ready to roll. Good luck, Claudia, and may the odds be ever in your favour. Thanks, guys.
