For a few years, in the 1970s, the Mr Asia syndicate made millions. Heroin creates its own market. It acts like a form of play. Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down. Then he just pulled out a gun, shot her in the back of the head, and then said to Wayne, you're going to help me bury her. This is Mr Asia, A Forgotten History.

The ZM Podcast Network Hi everybody, welcome to Brian Clint's After Party Where we are trying to get former producer and former lead sprinter of the show Ben McDowell on the podcast He was definitely the person on this show who has always been the fastest. I would say he's the fastest person to ever grace the Brian Clint team. I think he might be the fastest person to ever be on ZM. Ooh, that's a big call. I'm trying to think who might possibly have been faster than Ben in the past.

And, no, nah. He's pretty quick. Yeah, I think he might have it. So anyway, that's in the works. Just waiting for him to message us back. Before then, Ella, would you call yourself a people pleaser? Would you say you're a people pleaser? What answer do you want me to say?

No, I want you to be honest. That's such a good answer. Oh, and then you ruined it. You ruined it with the fucking bazinga. I think you're a people pleaser. Oh, shut up! I honestly think I'm getting better. I am getting better. Let me read this important email

that Ella had to send to the ZM staff today. Oh, she had to hide herself up to see that. I know, and I can tell. She's nervous. So this is a group email to the ZM staff today. Oh, she had to hide herself up to say that. I know, and I can tell. She was nervous. And there's a lesson in this. So this is a group email to the wider staff that says, starts with, hey team, double exclamation mark.

That's just me though. That's our Gen Z lingo. We love, in capital letters, when you guys come in during the show and have a yarn with us and ask questions, double exclamation mark. Continue to hang and chat, but double check if the red light is on

and if the producers are on air. Everything comes through on air, the doors, chatting, et cetera. Plus, it's a little distracted. Appreciate it and thank you in advance. Love heart emoji. I think it's the perfect email. I don't want people to be afraid to come and hang. It's happened in the past.

It's really, yeah. Because, yeah, we love people from the office. We love them to feel comfortable when our show's on and to come in during our show. And so I think that's the perfect email. Yeah. I just like that you had an important message that you needed to convey.

And you have every right to say it. That's just a little. There's a light for a reason. One piece of feedback from me. many exclamation points yeah you could you could drop the exclamation points on at least it isn't the chat that the challenge needed more to be more friendly yeah i would have taken out two of them no but i do double exclamation marks i just love exclamation i hate exclamation marks. I just love exclamation marks. I hate exclamation marks.

Oh, okay. Wow. No, I hate using them. I just feel like I've never got something I need to say that loudly, you know? Something I love and Clint hates, I love ellipses. Me too. Yes, Ella. Always do it.

I know. Clint's going to hate us. Finish your fucking sentences. I'm ADHD. I never finish my fucking sentence. So funny. Oh, my God. He doesn't know we're on the podcast.

Huh? I don't think Ross knew we were on the sentence. Ross is in the corner and he hears some F words. He didn't know we were doing the podcast. Ross is having a heart attack. It's a podcast. Ross, we're loose. We're loose on the podcast. We're loosey-gooseys. Ben has just messaged back, by the way.

Well, thank you for the tip. There he is, the fastest man to ever grace the Brian Clint show, Benjamin McDowell. Oh, 11.2 was the best and it'll always be the best. Is it 11.2? We had you down at 14 seconds.

Oh, that was when I was actually racing at 17 or 18 years old. That's when he raced Whitney. You got an 11.2 at 14 seconds. That was when I was actually racing at 17 or 18 years old. That's when he raced Whitney. You got an 11.2 at high school? Yeah. Wow. That's fast. Over 100 metres.

Over 100 metres. That is quick. That is bloody quick. We were saying we think you might be the fastest man to ever work at ZM. Oh, yeah. Do you reckon Gary would ever have a run of it? Absolutely not. Mate, you would absolutely blitz Gary.

Yeah, true. Hey, Ben, have you heard about what's going to happen on Friday? Three girls, one race? Shit, that's what we should have been calling it. One race. He's good, man. See, it's even crossed the ditch. It's the race that's going to stop the nation.

If we get a trophy, it can be three girls, one cup. Yeah, true. We're going to get a cup trophy. That's foul. Yes. Ella is going to race Bree, who's going to race Claudia over 100 metres. And Ben, you know all of the women involved, and you know the 100 metres intimately.

What's your prediction? Well are they Hang on a minute Are they running like a time trial Or against each other? Against each other One straight race Everyone is running at the same time

I would rather a time trial Same No because then there'd be a lot of Faffing around about who gets to go first And who gets to go last I feel like someone would claim That if they lost, they'd be like, bullshit, you know?

Yeah, anyway. So, yes, Ben, to answer your question, it's a straight race. Yeah, okay. Well, three losers. Oh! Go away! Why? Because of age?

I think it's age. I think she knows she might have it, and that's the problem. That'll get her. Oh, you think she's a bit cocky. I've actually been the opposite, Ben. I actually really am worried. I don't think I do. I'm backing Claudia.

I'm backing Claudia for the win. Unfounded faith. Yeah, I mean, I haven't seen Ella walk, let alone run, so it's hard to know. But I would have picked Claudia to win it quite easily, actually. This is a mess, Dad. Well, you know what's consistent here is not a single person has picked Ella.

Not a single person has picked me. Really? Not a single person. Oh, I've got money on you. Oh, well, okay. You've picked me, then. Is there betting involved, or can we put money down? I'm releasing some odds tomorrow, Ben. The TAB are actually taking up the race. releasing some odds tomorrow, Ben. The TAB

are actually taking up the race. They're going to have it on the TAB. You can put it in your multi. Oh, yeah, okay. That was the Crusaders lost right at each other. Okay, interesting. So, Claudia, go ahead, Ella. I have a question for Ben because he's a good runner. What do you think before the race?

Like, when you're about to go off, what's your mental game like? Just start 10 metres forward and just get a head start. That's great advice. And then you're running and then you see someone come in front of you and you're not winning. What do you do then?

Trip them up. Should I throw a plank tone? Yeah. I'm so disappointed in you, Ben. I thought you were going to pick me. You've seen me with the soccer boots on. I've played a bit of soccer with you, but no. Yeah, that's probably why I win last, to be honest.

She wants to... Did you say you think I'll get last? Yeah, I reckon you will. Far out. No way. Ella's got 12 years Youth on her side Yeah but I've also got Like no talent

For speed Do you know what I actually love Being the underdog I want to be the underdog You're not the underdog Because You're not the underdog

I feel like Ella and I Are the underdogs I'm the underdog You are the underdog Because if you lose If you lose Then it's fine No pressure

And if you win I have all the pressure the glory is way bigger. What do you give for the win? What's on the line? It's just glory at this stage. Now Clint's going to shout drinks. No, this has nothing to do with me. I'm not even allowed to run.

It's so kind. You're going to make money off us. People are betting on the race. You're going to make all the money. Do you want to run? You're the bookie on this race. Why can't Clint run? Because that's kind of a given.

You can do a time trial. He can run against some other males in the office. They assume that I'll win, Ben. Obviously. Well, I mean, if we go off actual genetics and DNA, then yes. Yeah. We don't need Clint. It's happening on Friday. We don't need Clint to race because we already know. This is interesting.

This makes it interesting because we don't know who will win. It would be really interesting if I lost. Ben, what's your favourite performance enhancer for pre-race? Because everything's allowed. Viagra. Holy shit, really? Gatorade Purple. Gatorade Purple.

Gatorade Purple. I'm going to find that. Yeah, not no-dose? Not like caffeine tablets or something like that? It's going to get you going too much, I think, and you'll gas out. You'll feel the down more than you feel the high. I was thinking I'm going to have a gel pack. It's 100 metres.

I would love to try one. I've never tried a gel pack. Maybe we should. Man man you guys are hardcore we will be buzzing for two days okay um ben i'll give you those odds tomorrow but early money for you just confirming it's on claudia yes yeah yeah ten dollars in claudia each way please thanks ben ten each way there's only three people in the race that's second i still want some money i mean that's true okay he's got a point all right right, well, I'm only offering first and second. I'm not offering odds on third.

Okay. Okay? What if someone picks the entire order? Ooh. Like a trifecta? Yes. Are you offering a trifecta? So far out of my skill set, but yep, let's do it.

Because Ben would be locking in Claudia LME. Is that your running order, Ben? Yeah. Correct. Lock it in. No way. Actually, I'm order, Ben? Yeah. Correct. Lock it in. No way. Actually, I'm not. He's trying to reverse psychology.

I'm going to lose. No, I'm going to lose. But Ben, you should know me. That's going to drive me even more. Yeah, it might. But it's just, you know, I'm firm. I know you've already lost it. All right, Ben.

I think I deserved a second. I'm literally back in high school.

I've got anxiety and I want to cry. Yeah, I don't know if I want to do this. Should we call it off? This is such a fun race. Should we call it off? The tears are coming. Let's call it off. I'm going to lose again.
