The ZM Podcast Network. Yo, what up everybody? Welcome to the 15th to last Brian Clint podcast of the year. 15th to last. Oh yes. What if we end up doing all of our podcasts? Not really though, because I'll do some summery ones, too. Claudia. Oh, you're going to do that, are you?

Yeah. God, everyone tell Claudia how good she looks. God, you look good, Claudia. Oh, thank you. Stunning. That started triggering me now, too. We need a change in studio. I was going to say, didn't we change?

Doesn't that mean that she's messed up when we say that? Yeah. Yeah, but it's also a nice thing. Say thank you to Claudia. Thank you, Claudia. Claudia, you look ravishing. No, I don't like that. Oh.

That means I've really messed up. Oh, does it? Yeah. I had some radish on the weekend. Fuck, how underrated is a radish in a salad? You didn't like it? Eh, it's okay. I like pickled radish probably better than normal radish.

Raw dog radish in this garden salad that we had on the weekend. It was a revelation. It was delicious. I garden salad that we had on the weekend. It was a revelation. It was delicious. I like horseradish on my steak. Oh, yeah. What is that? Spicy. Oh, yeah.

You have never had horseradish? No, I know. It's so yum. Has anyone's veggie started coming in yet? I feel like we all went handy on the veggies at the start of spring. Has anyone started? Me. Me.

Really? What have you grown that's edible? I've got so many things. I've gone crazy. So I was checking my garden every morning. This morning, all the flowers on my little cucumber, there's like 10 of them. Turns out that's where the cucumbers grow from.

So I've got 10. Right now, it's a tiny little baby cucumber. I'm so excited. And my potatoes are thriving. How do you know potatoes are thriving? Doesn't it all happen under the cucumber. Oh, I'm so excited. And my potatoes are thriving. How do you know potatoes are thriving? Doesn't it all happen under the ground? Yeah, I have no idea. But the top bit is just humongous.

And the flowers are blooming. When the flowers die, that's when they're ready to be harvested. I'm very excited. People tell me growing potatoes is a waste of time because they're so cheap. You're better to just buy your potatoes and save your ground space. I feel like that about most things, to be honest. I had them by accident in my compost bin. Yeah, don't eat those ones.

Yeah, don't eat them. They'll be yuck. They're so nutrient dense. True. Delicious. Most vegetables are a waste of time to grow. What? They are.

No, it's true. No, it's true. You're such a hater. I'm not. Mike, let me fucking finish. No, it's true. You're such a hater. No, it's the process. Let me fucking finish. I am making a point. I don't like your point. For God's sake, all the bloody Vegos are after me.

It is. Nearly everything is a waste of time in terms of how much produce you get from like a singular plant. That's why you don't. Sorry, sorry. I'll turn her off. You go. You have the floor. The only thing that is true. Don I'll turn her off. You go. You have the floor.

The only thing that is true. Don't you claim to be the bad guy. You're the one who talked over her first. Excuse me. I'm just clearing the floor for you. Turn my mind back on. I'm just clearing the floor for you. Everyone, shut the fuck up.

Let me make my point. Jesus Christ. The only thing that is truly worth growing in a veggie garden. Friendship. Tomatoes. Broccoli. I'm not kidding you. Just throw. Broccoli. I just said all vegetables aren't. They're not worth it. They all go to the fucking seed after like one round.

Yes, of course you want to know. You guys will want to take this advice and run with it. In terms of the amount of money it saves you and the longevity you get out of it, the best thing to grow in a veggie garden is every type of herb under the sun. Basil, parsley, well, they're our favourites and we save a shit tonne of money on it. Rosemary is, in my opinion, one of the, I think it's the goat of all herbs because it doesn't go to seed.

And it looks really cool if you get the hanging one. Rosemary. Yeah, I got that one. It's called prostrate rosemary, the hanging one. Did you know that? Nah. It's very close to prostate. Prostrate rosemary grows down.

It's the only thing that's worth growing. My point, can I do my point now? Oh, here we go. I have a point after that. Cool, okay. And then I have a point too. I'm holding the talking stick. Sorry, Bree. Is that the only thing that's worth growing. My point, can I do my point now? I have a point after that. And then I have a point too. I'm holding the talking stick. Sorry Bree. You know what I was thinking the other day?

You know what I was thinking? I had this thought the other day because I... It's not very nice is it? No, because you're wrong. It's not very nice is it? Sorry Bree, I'll respect you next time. Okay, go for it. I will do the right thing. It's not very nice, is it? No, because you're wrong. It's not very nice, is it? Sorry, Brie. I'll respect you next time. Okay, go for it.

I will do the right thing. It's the process of it. So it's like getting up, going outside, being with nature. I love that. Yes, but that's not the point that Brie was making. That's not the point that I'm making. No, you're saying it's a waste of time. It's not a waste.

No, she said money. Oh, money. Yes. And to be honest, you get all of that, what you're getting with your veggies, you get all of that with your herbs as well because you still have to do all of that with the herbs, but it's just a more viable thing. Okay, okay. So, honey.

No, your point is done. Null and void. Claudia, your turn to make a point. Last year I grew tomatoes and I had far more than I could ever use. I've had tomato seasons like that. So, I didn't have to buy tomatoes. Stop on that. Ella, please.

Even one time. Ella, you're going to look back on this as the time when you critiqued us. Suck it, Bree. I've been overthinking that all weekend. Don't even. Can someone who's listening to this, who knows what we're talking about, can you please find that piece of audio? No, no.

Yes. Don't. Please, I beg you. The audio from when Ella first started as our producer. So when would that be to give them a roundabout? So it's when Ella first started as our producer. It would have been mid to late last year. Maybe in like the first two or three weeks that she started with us.

I wonder if that died in a hole. I reckon it was. Do you reckon it was that soon? If you died in a compost bin, there'd be good nutrient-dense food for the... Was that the end of your point, Paul? Yeah, I think you got the gist of that. I didn't have to buy any tomatoes. Okay, valid point.

You're invalid. My point, my point. You know, they were pretty tasty. Oh, Claudia's doing it to you now, and I appreciate it. My point. Tell us your point. Yeah, can you hurry up and tell us your point?

My point. You've got to tell us what it is, though, first, and it needs to be good. But before you do that... You probably cut out my point. You're just witting. How annoying is this podcast going to be for people to listen to? It's infuriating me, and I'm here.

The real produce was the friends we produced along the way. What the fuck? Dave! You want to know something that I produced on the weekend? Yeah. I made my own butter. I thought it was going to be dirty what you said. Yeah, sorry, I made my own butter.

Did you churn it? Slap it on. I shook it in the car. Wait, wait, did you make your own butter? How did you churn it? With my hands. Were your hands in the butter? There was some vigorous shaking.

Claudia, have you been hand-churning your own butter? Yeah, hand-churning the butter at home. You hot milk made you. It made me very sweaty, I've got to be honest. Do you guys remember the car game Old Maid? No. Shit, that was a good game. No.

I want to find it again. I made Young Maid. That was so cringe. Shit, two bad points from you. This might be another moment that you think about No but the only moment I'll think about is that moment Cause yeah I go to bed and I Hello darkness my old friend

I love you and I'm sorry for being mean I never want to be mean in my life Why do I always cop it from you Can I be mean to you guys next time You're always mean Why don't you tell me to shut up Claudia We know that it comes from a place of love when Claudia does it, though. What the heck?

Why can't I do it? Anyway, I'm sorry. I just want, anyway. I was going to message you, Bree, but I was like, no. What? Message me when? When it happened? In the weekend.

Oh, in the weekend. What about that? Yeah, and be like, again, I'm so sorry. Oh, my God. Don't ever. It's like. I feel terrible. It's actually really funny. Okay. This is Ella going to bed at the end of her, after a good day. She's like... I feel terrible. It's actually really funny.

Okay. This is Ella going to bed at the end of her... After a good day. She's like, ah, what a great day. Got a lot done. I grew some of my veggies, which definitely wasn't a waste of time. Remember that time a year ago when I critiqued those two radio announcers that have just started on their show?

Hello, darkness, my old friend. I'm dying. Oh, why did I do that? I've come to talk with you again Instant regret When did you know that you'd fucked up? That's like immediately Literally when the mics went off

I slid over to this other computer And I went why? Why? Did you delete it from the video footage? I would've Yeah probably Absolutely It's gone

Enjoy the other podcasts, everybody. It's out now too. And Claudia, you look wonderful today. No, I don't. You put great effort into it. Must have been bad
