Z.M's Bree and Clint Podcast. It's our radio show, but wrapped up in a neat little package just for you. It's ZM's Brea and Clint Podcast. Olivia Wilde, who is Harry Stiles's ex and Jason Sadegis's ex-wife. Ted Lassau. Yeah, Ted Lassow, who is Ted Lassow, has gone on the Call Her Daddy podcast, which we've been talking about this week. There's a part, because I watched the interview,

and there was a part of the interview that, was brutal where she talks about the moment she knew that her marriage with Jason Sadegis was done. Ooh. And it was a particular conversation. Yeah. That she recalls her and Jason having. Yeah.

And it happened on her birthday. Oh. Take a listen. March 2020. We were driving home from my birthday party my friends had had. and I said, did you give me a birthday present? And he said, what would I get you, Olivia? I don't know you.

And he wasn't wrong. We didn't know each other anymore. And that was a point. That was when we realized it was over. Oh, that's a douchebag answer, though. Yeah, what, even if you're going through something, you still get your wife a birthday prison. That's not the Ted Lassow that I know.

No. He would never. God, that meant people forget how messy that breakup was. It was very messy. where he served her divorce papers while she was on stage. Isn't that what happened? Oh, yeah. And that sort of all came out while she was dating Harry and...

God, you forget, because he plays such a likable, lovable character on Ted Lasso. But he wasn't liked by a lot of people because that breakup was real messy. And I don't think either of them probably handled it the best. What's worse? Not getting your wife a birthday present or a birthday present or a breakup. answering her question like that. I think it's the response. The response is awful.

Yeah. And she, it's, you know what's sad to me, though, is her saying, and he was right. He was right. We didn't know each. He didn't know me. But like... Get to know your wife. Yeah, awful.

Yeah, that makes me really sad, actually. Pretty awful, eh? Also, stink birthday. I mean, I don't know. I hope it was a good party, because that's a real. buzzkill ending. What a crap birthday. Claudia, didn't you have a birthday where none of your family got you a present or even remembered your birthday? Yeah, it was, I think, last year.

Last year. Yeah, I didn't get a message from any of my family members. That's crazy. Yeah. Didn't feel good, but it was just, we were in different parts of the world. I don't care. Don't make my messages. And when they're like, oh my God, I can't believe we forgot your birthday. I think I got one, like, happy belated. And then the rest were just no acknowledgement. Yeah, that's not the best birthday. And it had never happened before, so it wasn't like I expected that.

Had you done anything? No. Had you not put effort in with your family that year? I mean, maybe. And they were getting back at you. They were like, yeah, she's been annoying. Yeah, yeah. Let's ruin her birthday.

Oh. I found out on my birthday one year that one of my best mates was dating my ex that I still wasn't over. Oh, ha. And no joke. Like, it was like a scene out of a movie. I was meant to go out with some friends for dinner that night. And I was so gutted that I cancelled.

And I was in bed. And I cried all day. All day I was so dehydrated. It was awful. You lit some electrolytes. You know what I was watching? What? I was watching.

So sad. I was watching the Ellie Golding live performance of some shows. show she did over and I would just go back to all of the slow songs and just re-watch them over and over again and cry. That was my birthday. I think I was, I want to say my 24th birthday. That's so sad and sucks that you had to cancel your plans. But can I say really smart to cancel the dinner because that is the evening where you would have got so drunk and so sloppy because you were so upset that I would have just compounded the problem. You know the biggest reason I cancelled the dinner is because the friend that I found out was dating my ex

was the one that organised it. So I was like, no, not going to this. That's wild. Pretty awful. Are you guys still friends? Hell no. Are they still with your ex? Hell no.

It lasted like a month. But it was gut-wrenching at the time. Yeah, I'll bet. We want to know the terrible, awful, sad, bad thing. that happened on your birthday. It was meant to be all about you that day, but someone else made it all about them by doing something awful or saying something awful

or dying. What was it? What awful thing happened on your birthday where you just thought to yourself, on my birthday? People who die on your birthday are such attention seekers, eh? So selfish.
