ZM's Brea and Clint podcast.
Play ZDM's Brie and Clint.
ZDM's Brie and Clint covering breakfast.
Yeah, it's the last Brie and Clint breakfast bonanza.
Oh yeah, last day of the week.
How have you enjoyed it?
I've really enjoyed it, actually.
It's been delightful, hasn't it?
I have not been enjoying involuntarily falling asleep at like quarter to six.
Oh, really?
Is that when you...
Too early to go to bed?
Yeah.
But too late in the day after getting up at four,
and I just shut down.
My brain just starts to shut down.
It's got to get through that half hour.
And other than that, I'm good.
Nice.
Other than that, I'm good.
I have not napped once this week.
Well done.
When I used to do breakfast radio back in the day, guys, full time,
I used to have, I'm not shitting you,
a two or three hour nap in the afternoon.
I did too, yeah.
It's so bad for you too.
And I never felt better.
I never felt better.
You always felt worse.
Always.
Ella, have you gone with the naps this week?
Good.
Two hours in the afternoon.
So she's doing what we used to do.
I mean, in fairness.
Every day.
Just yesterday.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that was pretty nice.
Also, you've only worked two days this week so far.
Yeah, but regardless, it's hard getting off at 4 a.m.
It is hard.
It is hard.
Respect to those that do it.
Mm-hmm.
Claude, what about you?
I can't nap because if I do, I just feel sick and disorienting.
Yeah, yeah.
So I push through.
So strong, but.
There is that rare golden goose nap.
Oh yeah, when you're like peak exhaustion and you just get like a hot 20 minutes.
Yeah, you know what I'm talking about?
No.
Like when you do wake up and you feel energized.
A 20 minute nap does nothing.
Nah, I think it can.
I think it has to be in the sun though.
Oh, yeah.
That's part of my theory.
I don't think you can get under a duvet for a golden goose nap.
Oh, it's so cozy.
I know, it's too cozy.
You've got to wake up on the couch and be like, okay, that was good.
I'm going to get up.
But what do you do?
That's my question.
When I wake up from a nap, that's more than 20 minutes,
I feel like I've travelled through time.
Yeah, the best feeling ever.
I'm like, where am I?
Sometimes you wake up and you actually feel like you've travelled through time.
Yeah, legit.
I'm like, are you just repeating what I'm saying again?
Hey, let's get into it.
We have Jason DeRuolo tickets to giveaway today.
Not until 8 o'clock when we do Friday Oki,
but if you're keen, you can sit a little,
Alarm. Got another concert announcement for you at 9 a.m.
But next on the show, Bree, next on the show, another would you rather.
From that same weird dude as yesterday.
Okay, would you say this one's weirder or more normal?
I don't actually remember what it was.
So it would be a surprise to me too when we play out.
But it was good. I did my research. I found this better one.
Cool. I'm going to get a quick three minutes during this song.
connection in here because he can't
I can't work the Uber Eats app
because he's never used it.
It's the most annoying thing
on the frickin' planet.
God, it's so frustrating
when something just isn't
super easy. Yes.
Thank you. Thank you.
Some other people find it not frustrating.
Is that other people find that app frustrating?
A little bit, yeah. Yeah.
Where's the coffee that I put on my order?
Where is it? I know I sound like a boomer right now.
It's within the combo that
you ordered. Can I just talk to someone
please? Can I just talk to a manager?
That's what a freaking combo
is. It comes with a drink.
This is the main event.
Trady versus lady.
Let's press on with something that
is relatively easy
most days. Is Trady
versus Lady? You can win $50
cash. The Trades have won
24 times this year. The ladies
have won 331.
It's a good leader.
for the ladies and we'll go to them first.
Our lady is in Canterbury.
She's 22 and she just finished milking the cows.
Welcome to the show, Jasmine.
Giday Jasmine.
Hi, how are you?
How many cows you milked this morning, Jasmine?
About a thousand.
A thousand.
And will you do a thousand more this afternoon?
Yeah, not on this afternoon.
Do you...
Obviously, because you're milking super early.
Do you just squirt a little bit of milk into your tea or coffee?
Oh gosh, no, no.
Needs to be homogenised, Bree.
I would never do that either.
Jasmine, our dairy farmer, you're taking on our trading from Christchurch.
He's 33, and he's a massive Waz fan.
Welcome to the show, Andy.
G'day, Andy.
After Waz.
After Waz.
This is Rugby League.
Huge weekend for us, Waz fans.
Isn't it, Andy?
Did you know we haven't beaten the storm since 2015?
Why are you bringing that up?
Oh, yeah, it scares me that they're coming off a massive.
lost to the pants as too.
Yes.
Guys, you...
We don't need to say we didn't have the faith.
We don't need the negativity though.
We need to talk about the positives.
Free, we said, up the waz.
Andy, your buzzer is tradie.
Jasmine, your buzzer is lady.
First of three correct answers gets $50 cash this morning, thanks to KFC.
Best of luck to everyone.
Question number one.
A movie starring Anne Hathaway.
Merrill Streep, Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci is about to return for a sequel.
What's the name of that movie?
Ladies.
Yes, Jasmine.
The Devil Wears Prada.
It is the Devil Wears Prada 2.
Devil Wears Prada 2.
Well done.
One to the ladies.
Question number 2.
How many states make up the United States of America?
30.
Andy.
Yes, Andy.
51.
We know.
Jasmine?
50.
50.
It is 50.
I always, for some reason, in my brain, have it as 52.
Yeah, I had some odd number two, but I did double Google, double-check that.
No, it is 50, you're right.
Two to the ladies, you need this one, Andy, to stay in at.
Question number three, buzz in when you can tell me who sings this song?
Right here.
Yes, Andy.
It's that Drex Project.
It is there, Andy.
Well done.
You're on the board.
We move on to question number four.
Jason DeRulo is coming back to New Zealand.
We have free tickets.
at 8am. Name a Jason Derulo's song.
Trady. Yes, Andy.
Wiggle, wiggle.
Wiggle, wiggle, yeah.
Wiggle, wiggle.
My daughter loves that song.
Banger.
Two to the Trades. Two to the ladies.
We are in a tie break in the fifth.
Here it goes. This is for the win.
Where on the body would you wear a cravat?
Trady.
Andy for the win.
Hid?
No, not hid.
Jasmine.
Okay, we can move on to question number six.
Around your neck.
It's a neck scarf.
It's the...
It's a neckerchief.
No, the neck is not the head.
It doesn't go heads and, heads and neck and knees and toes.
Some people's head and neck morphed together, but that's not what we are looking for.
The F1 drivers, kind of.
All right, we move on to question number six.
Was William Shakespeare born in the 16th, 17th or 18th century?
Andy?
17.
No.
Jasmine?
18.
No.
16th century is what we...
Andy, there was only one answer left.
But I appreciate you trying.
We move on to question number seven.
This is still for the win.
What type of factory did the Willie Wonka team run?
Trady.
Yes, Andy.
Cocky.
Chockey factory.
I thought you said cookie for us.
second and I was like, you idiot.
What a game to end the week, hey?
That was a tough game. Jasmine, great work.
You almost got it done.
Oh, no.
No.
I'm lucky jazz. Can we find Jazz something for a Friday producers?
We'll find Jazz some KFC chicken dollars.
Oh, yeah, KFC chicken dollars.
And Andy, we've got 50 bucks cash coming your way
and a tradie versus lady victory. Well done.
Thank you. I'm going to go buy a cravat.
Not for 50 bucks, you know.
Get it done, Andy.
This time yesterday we bought you a would you rather, which I think was good.
And then we got a good answer out of it too.
It was would you rather the LMFAO was the biggest band in the world and every band sounded like LMFAO or geese were in charge.
We chose LMFAO.
We chose LMFAO.
People reminded me.
At first that was pro-geese.
I said to you, I was like, we've already lived through a time when LMFAO was the biggest band in the world.
And I think I underestimated how mean geese.
are two.
Old geese is scary.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
So, should we do another one?
Yeah.
Yeah.
We did such a good job yesterday.
Do you think we should...
Oh, no, they're bad.
Can I try and do it?
Bit moosey.
Yeah, too moosey.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, here's today's Would You Rather?
Would you rather be the best piano player in the world,
but your hands are always really sticky,
so any piano you play, you get it all sticky and gross.
And if you ever shake someone's hand, they're like, oh, gross.
Hands all sticking.
And you can't wear gloves to cover it.
Or you have found the ability to teleport, but the only way that you can do it is by going number two in your pants.
And you can't be holding anything when you teleport.
So wherever you arrive to, you have to basically find new pants.
He's good.
He's good.
This one's an easy one for me.
I'm teleporting, baby.
Me too.
Oh, it's not even a question.
I'm poo-pooing in my pants and I'm teleporting.
What was the benefit of the sticky hands?
There was no benefit, was there?
Yeah, you're an amazing piano player.
Oh, you're amazing penis.
That's right.
Yeah.
Which...
Poo-in-in-my pants, but I freaking teleported.
Yeah, yeah.
So...
So you can go to Morocco, but you arrive there with poo.
in your pants. I probably would poo my pants in Morocco
anyway. That's very fair point.
Yeah, it's a very fair
point. You know, so may as well
not catch a super long flight.
We're on holiday at the end
of this show, you could
once you're done, just pack your things up
and just go, all right, see you guys
next in a week.
And all of a sudden you're in Fiji.
I did a poo in my pants in Ibiza.
Yeah.
Just to teleport here.
And no disrespect to our penists.
Yeah.
Like, I mean, I just, I have a real.
Someone who's really good at piano, I know they're intelligent.
For sure.
I have a real thing about my hands, though.
I hate a sticky hand.
No, but not even sticky, just being unclean.
So imagine them sticky.
Like, imagine how inconvenient that would be.
Yeah.
You know, like just an everyday, like, you use your hands for everything.
Like, imagine everything you touch is.
sticky.
I think we're in, we agree.
Claudia.
I want to take out the benefits here.
Would you rather just the sticky hands or just the poo in your pants?
Oh, sticky hands.
Wait.
Sticky hands.
Wait, so do I always have a poo in my pants?
No, just right now.
Right now, would you rather have sticky hands or poo in your pants?
But not forever.
Not forever.
Not sticky hands.
Yeah.
But the, but the upside.
The upside is so.
The upside is so.
much better.
Being able to teleport is so much better than being able to play piano.
So they're not even.
But here's my question.
So let's take out the good things.
So sticky hands or poo-poo in pants, right?
It happens.
Oh, that's not that hard.
I was going to say it happens once a week.
You don't know when it's going to happen.
Who is picking the poo in the pants?
I'll take some poo in the pants, please.
Also, the sticky hands one, you have sticky hands all.
all the time and you're good at piano.
The teleport one, you only have to deal with the number two in the pants
when you teleport.
When you teleport.
And then you teleport to a pants store in that country and you could go.
No, no, no one likes a workaround.
It's not a workaround.
What was the workaround?
You teleport to a pants store.
Or you have a smearer of ugly.
You teleport to a, just because it's a toilet store.
Just because it's a pants store.
Just because it's a pants store.
Doesn't even they want a poo-poo pants person in you?
When have you ever seen?
Teleport to a shower.
Just a pants store.
That doesn't exist.
General pants.
Yeah, come on, Brie.
Just jeans.
I hate to break just jeans.
You idiot.
All they sell is jeans, Bree.
Just jeans.
ZD.M.'s Bree and Clint.
Covering breakfast.
We're just doing the very deep, would you rather, which was, if you missed it.
Actually, I'll just play it for you again just quickly, just in case you missed it.
Because it's quite philosophical.
I think it's a good way to start your day too
to get your brain moving in that way
and sort of confront your own priorities
So just quickly
Would you rather be the best piano player in the world
But your hands are always really sticky
So any piano you play
You get it all sticky and gross
And if you ever shake someone's hand
They're like oh gross
Hands all sticky
And you can't wear gloves to cover it
Or you have found the ability to teleport
but the only way that you can do it
is by going number two in your pants
and you can't be holding anything
when you teleport
so wherever you arrive to
you have to
basically find new pants
so important question
Lynn has messaged in
and Lynn is taking this very seriously
she said guys what if to play the piano
really well you had to shit in your pants
and to teleport
you got really sticky hands
for your whole life.
I'm still teleporting.
I'm teleporting more.
Yeah.
That makes teleporting more appealing.
Exactly.
Yeah.
The sticky hands thing will be an issue,
especially when you want to be intimate with your partner.
It's the playing of the piano, yes.
The playing of the piano that's not...
It's not upside enough.
Yeah.
Although you are the best piano player in the world.
Who is the best piano player in the world?
We don't know.
See, that's the thing.
We don't know.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Also, penis is the correct word for piano player.
What'd you call me?
Penest.
ZD.M.'s Bree and Clint Podcast.
Oh, yeah.
Big penis.
Who likes to have a little car sit when they get home just in the driveway?
Sometimes in the work car park too, you get somewhere and you're just not quite ready to get out of the car.
Is that relatable to you guys?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Definitely.
Usually I've got a little sneaky snack with me.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, that's, yeah.
And so you're hiding that?
Not hiding it per se, but just, you know.
Are you secret eating again?
Nah.
Right.
Sometimes.
You know, how they say if you like hide,
you're drinking from your partner,
it means you've got a problem?
Is the same truth of food?
Yes.
It is, eh?
Mm-hmm.
Like if you have a, if you have a McDonald's
or something on the way home.
But I'm not in denial about it.
If you put your food wrapper in the wheelie bin outside
so they don't see it,
and you tuck it under some other rubbish,
That's, you've got a problem.
What are you talking about?
Anyway, this is the psychology of car sets.
I read a piece by a psychologist who said that it's, first of all, it's super common.
You're not alone if you like a car set.
I think we know that.
Loads of people just sit in their car before they go inside after arriving somewhere.
And psychologists say that your car in that moment is acting as a transition zone.
it's a buffer between two parts of your day
and also part of the reason that you like it
that you might realize and you might not
is because your car is one of the only spaces that you have
where you've got total control.
There are no people around.
There are no demands on you.
It's your music if you want it.
You even control the temperature inside your car
and what it smells like.
It's like our own personal spaceship.
It is.
I don't even think you've got that much control in the toilet,
which would be the other place.
Oh, I know I don't.
Yeah.
No control in there.
Do you want to know the benefits of having a little car set?
Yep.
They said it is definitely what you think it is.
It's a mini reset.
It helps your body to decompress.
It helps you process the day so far.
Or the day that's coming up if you're doing a morning car set.
Great.
And it mentally prepares you for what you're about to do next.
It can make you a better person going into that next thing.
I love that.
Even a few minutes of car sits can reduce stress,
improve mood and boost your focus,
but there's a catch.
And this is the bit that would catch us all out.
It doesn't count if you are on your phone.
If you're having a car sit and you're on your phone and you're doom scrolling,
Claudia is furious at that idea.
That's all I do in the car.
It doesn't happen.
When I'm parked.
They said it actually makes it worse.
Oh. What?
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah, because you're not doing any of the things.
You're not being present in the car.
You're not sitting with your thoughts.
Courtney's text through.
You're not feeling your feelings.
You're just masking them with social media.
Courtney's text through from the car.
It says, this is me right now.
Just got home from the gym.
And I have to go inside and deal with three kids.
Yes.
Yes.
And that's a real thing.
You're not ready yet, Courtney.
Give it a minute.
What does it mean if I sit in my car
and cry.
I don't, they haven't covered that
but I actually think that's probably good.
A car cry.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's like nothing.
Because then you get it out in the car.
Until you have to get out of the car.
And it's contained.
You can leave that cry in the car.
And then you go straight to the shower for a shower.
Then you go to shower.
Oh, the shower cry.
I always forget how much you guys cry.
I genuinely forget.
Yeah, you were shocked when you learnt that.
What was it?
I cried.
about, yeah, once a fortnight.
Yeah.
Yeah, Ella was once a week.
Once every three weeks, yeah, fortnight to three weeks.
And Claudia was...
Most days.
Most days, and I was bi-annually.
My wife is not a big cryer.
She cries, like a normal human being.
Maybe she just doesn't want to cry around you.
Maybe she doesn't.
Maybe she doesn't in the car.
Maybe it's always about you so you never see her cry.
But I don't know how to process it.
So she'll cry and then I'll be like, okay, we've got to fix this.
And she said to me one time, she goes, no.
I just need to have this cry.
Literally.
Reframed it for me.
It changed it.
I think I would pick anyone else to be around to cry other than you.
She's my wife.
You're the most awkward person.
If someone's crying, Clint can't look you in the face.
He's like, oh, no.
Are you all good?
Yeah, so if you guys can please do it in the car and leave it there, that'll be great.
There is Brinclint.
Brin Clint filling in for Fletchborn.
And Haley, it's time for the tea.
The tea.
Live from L.A. with D. McCarthy.
Nikki Glazer, what did you call her before?
The hottest roaster in the game?
She does all the celebrity roasts.
I just realized also that Nikki Glazer,
she's the hottest roaster in the game.
Yeah.
That's what you said.
Glazer.
Like, she'd be glazing the roast.
Oh, like a glazed ham.
Yeah.
Oh, I got you now.
I thought you were having a stroke.
Dean's here to tell us about Nikki Glazer's.
That could be happening as well.
Relationship Confession.
Good morning, Dean.
Hi, Dean.
Good morning, guys.
She's gone on one of the most talk about podcasts in the world.
She went on Call Her Daddy with the host, Alex Cooper.
And, you know, Alex Cooper has this way of disarming people
and really gets them to open up about stuff that maybe they shouldn't have.
Maybe they should.
Nikki Glazeeer.
She actually confessed that her relationship is like this.
She basically said, I'm going to try and keep this as PG as possible.
Her partner can go and do, could go and do whatever he wanted out in the world,
you know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
With other adults.
Yeah.
And she'd be cool with it.
It's basically what she's getting at.
She's like, I'm cool with all of this.
She said she has a very unique and she calls it modern take on a relationship.
And then a lot of people wouldn't understand how she sees it.
But she's like, yeah, no, if that's what you're urges, go do your thing, come back.
Her and her boyfriend have actually broke it up four times in the past,
and they've always come back together.
But it's really funny.
You've got to watch the full interview.
Like, she keeps it very real.
Yeah.
Very real.
She is talking about an open relationship as what she's talking about.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's so L.A. isn't it?
No.
She's from, they live in L.A.
It's very L.A.
Is this a clip of her on the podcast here, Claude?
Okay, here's a little bit of Nikki Glazier talking about it on Call Her Daddy.
A guy has a sexual connection with the girl and like he was to use protection.
Like I literally wouldn't care if my husband did that.
I don't know why.
If he were to like watch the wire with her or do crossword puzzles or like text up,
like send memes and stuff, I would be like, that's our thing.
Like emotional cheating would hurt me but like physical.
I'm just like outside of a relationship.
It's just kind of transactional.
God, she's funny.
She's so good.
That's very funny.
I like the phrasing she used Dean.
She said, I like my dog off the leash.
Yeah.
How about me at the top of this story trying to be as PG careful as possible,
and she's out there just staying in it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
My favorite thing is listening to Dean McCarthy, try B-PG.
Also talk about this like it's a foreign concept.
Yeah.
Dean's like, never heard of it.
Dean's like, I did not know it was possible to be intimate with multiple people,
but.
Dean's like, it's such a modern take on dating.
Oh, Dean.
Our perfect Catholic schoolboy, Dean McCarthy.
These are all foreign concepts to him.
Yep.
He's going to go Google some of these things after this.
No, he's not.
That's how good he is.
True.
Yeah, yeah.
Definitely don't do it on the work, Wi-Fi, Dean.
Back after this on ZM.
ZD.M's Brank Clint.
There are three things, I believe, that have divided us as phone users.
Sharing of charges, which we solved.
That's done.
And once everybody upgrades, USBC is now universal.
Yep, yep.
So slowly but surely as everybody gets newer and newer phones,
we will all have the same charger.
So that's good.
We can share charges, excellent.
Green text.
That's the other thing that divides us.
Apple users don't like texting us Samsung people
because it comes up green.
And we can't receive the videos that you send us on text.
It's a day giveaway.
even when you're not in the same room as someone
because you automatically know you're like,
oh, they're on a Samsung.
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah, yeah.
And I feel like that's not fair.
Yeah, exactly.
Why can't we all just be on the same?
Why does it matter?
Yeah.
An airdrop.
That was the other one.
Air drop is quite a big one, yep.
Well, I have big news.
Oh, please be airdrop.
One of those three things is no longer a problem.
Samsung now has air drop.
That is huge.
from the new versions,
so the S-26 and up,
they have now enabled it,
and both parties have enabled it.
So everybody's come to the table here.
I wonder how much...
We can now air-drop each other.
Money had to be exchanged.
I know, right?
And who pushed for what?
I think it's a good call, though.
You need to enable it.
iPhone users don't need to do anything.
Samsung users need to enable it.
You need to go just really quickly.
Settings, connected devices, quick share,
and you have to turn on share with Apple devices
and then it's done.
It's done for good.
The only other catch that I've found is
even if someone's in your contacts
and you've enabled share with contacts,
you both have to enable share with everyone.
Oh no, or the Samsung went to share.
Sorry, you've lost me ages ago.
It's pretty simple.
Once you turn it on, it's pretty simple.
Okay.
All I heard was AirDrop now available
from Samsung to iPhone.
That's all I need to know.
So airdrop me.
I've been waiting for this.
I've been waiting for this day for so long.
Okay, okay.
Hold on.
Everybody air drop me.
Ella, air drop me something.
Okay.
Air drop me.
I want to receive an eardrop.
Hold on.
So look for me in there.
Okay, hold on.
Just got an air drop me.
Can you see me?
Hold on.
Am I coming up?
I don't have to do anything, eh?
I don't think so.
Can you guys see me?
I can't find you.
Okay, make sure you, it's everyone.
Maybe we're too far away.
It is.
It is on everyone?
Yeah.
Oh, God.
I've got Clinton's...
Oh, no, that's your MacBook.
No, don't share it away MacBook.
No?
Yeah.
No phone from Clint coming up.
Bear with.
Allow sharing.
Someone said, wow, guys, listening to you,
airdrop each other stuff is high-level stuff.
Who can share with me, everyone?
Even worse as we're not air-dropping each other stuff.
Okay, air-drop me.
Look for me.
What do you?
You declined it.
No, I just accepted one.
Yay!
I accept.
Oh my God, they're coming in thick and fast.
It's been 10 years since I've received an airdrop
and they're coming in thick and fast.
Why aren't you accepting mine?
Was that your firstirdrop?
You could have been.
Wow.
Mine keeps declining.
Well, I'm busy receiving one at the moment.
So someone sent me a biggie.
I can do two at once.
Can you?
Huh?
Does it matter the size or?
Nah.
No.
Oh, Ella sent me a picture of a cat.
That's cute.
Okay.
Turn?
Yeah, send me an eardrop.
Okay.
Yeah.
Claudia sent me
Oh, I heard doing the fingers.
Are those yours?
Oh my God, Bree.
What did you send?
Just quickly.
What was it?
Hubber, hubber.
I'm not mine.
They're not mine.
They're my fiancions.
That's way better.
Their name's Breed and Clint.
Have you heard of the good siege theory?
Vaguely, it rings a bell.
It's about giving your partner the best seat, right?
Exactly.
Over yourself.
There's more research that's going into the good seat theory
where, you know, when you walk into a restaurant or a cafe,
and a lot of the time there's seats that are the comfy seats,
the cushy seats that are up against the wall
or they're in the window,
and then you've got your regular or old chair on the other side.
And the theory is that if your partner,
offers you the good seat,
at least offers you the good seat
or wants you to sit in the good seat,
then that's a good sign for the relationship.
Definitely. It's the chivalrous thing to do too, isn't it?
Yes.
Yes. I...
This is something that really came into one of my relationships
that ended up breaking down.
Okay.
When I first moved to New Zealand, I was dating that person.
Oh, yes, I know the person.
And one of the biggest things...
And this is before these kind of stories came out,
but something I always used to notice is I never was offered the good seat.
Ever.
I always offered the good seat.
Like I always offered the good seat to them.
But the good seat was never offered to me.
Yeah, interesting.
And it really bothered me.
Yeah.
Not that I would want to take the good seat all the time,
but just to have your partner have you in their thoughts.
Why do you think that was?
They just weren't thinking about you.
Do you think they were a bit resentful of you?
I think it wasn't the right person for me.
Yeah.
Like it was more about them.
Yeah, yeah.
Like I didn't enter their thought process.
Does your fiancé offer you the good seat?
Always.
But then you're offering your fiancé the good seat.
Yeah, so it's 50-50.
Sit on each other's lap.
Okay, calm down.
Sit side by side.
Calm down.
Side saddle.
On the one seat of table.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, we both go side saddle on the good side.
seat.
Go front saddle.
You just straddle them and they have to eat their meal around you.
The waitress comes over.
She's like, what are you guys has to sit in the bad seat?
Hey, we've had some complaints.
Can you guys not straddle each other in the cafe please?
It's making other people uncomfortable.
Do you think there's any, like, truth to the good seat theory?
I think it's symptomatic.
I think the good seat theory is kind of just everywhere, right?
you want your partner to think about you in decisions.
And it's not necessarily at a cafe or a seat on an airplane thing.
It's just in everyday life, right?
Yeah, I also think, yeah, you can see if your partner wants to give you the good looking dinner.
The good looking dinner is a really good one.
I was going to say the biggest slice of pizza.
That?
But, yeah.
But it's everywhere, hey.
Producers, would you say that you have had this happen in past relationships?
I'm always the bad seat person.
Are you?
That sucks.
Why, you end up in the bed seat?
Yeah, it's half that I'm like, you take the good seat
because I feel nice giving it to someone else.
But it's like, you're right, you'd never get offered it in return.
But here's the thing, Claudia.
You are single.
Yes.
Right?
So you can sit wherever you want.
No, no.
What I'm saying is maybe those relationships weren't right, and this was the warning sign.
No, let's be honest.
Claudia are single.
They'll sit her at the bar.
Yeah.
They'll be like, hey, we're saving the tables for the cover.
You can't have a seat for more than one person.
Yeah, yeah.
Can we sit you up at the bar?
Is that okay?
Yeah.
You'll be right at the bar, eh?
They're making cocktails in front of you, so it's kind of like dinner in a show.
The ZM Podcast Network.
There's a trend that's taking off online where people are sharing that they're getting the chicken icks.
Chicken eggs?
Chicken X.
Okay.
You know where you get icks over chicken?
No.
No, I don't know.
That's never happened to you?
I don't know chicken ick, no.
This like hits me right in the sweet spot because I am someone who has been a long time sufferer of the chicken egg.
Food chicken or animal chicken?
Food.
Food, right.
Like when you're eating it.
Okay.
Chicken's animal kind also scare me.
But the chicken eggs, like I can't eat chicken off the bone.
I can't eat, well, I can, but it's certain circumstances.
Right.
I really struggle to eat, like, chicken thigh.
Like, anything where the chicken is a different colour other than white when it's cooked.
Like, if I see colour in it.
So you're purely a breast woman.
I purely like the breast.
I've always said this about myself.
Breast is best is what I say.
I did not know this about you and I didn't know there was chicken act.
Yeah.
I thought chicken is chicken is chicken.
So my fiancé, she would be like, oh my God.
God. She knows this about me.
Yeah.
Because obviously when she's cooking for us, there's certain things where she's like,
Brie won't eat that.
Right.
And sometimes it's worse than others.
Like sometimes I don't have the chicken ick bad.
Right.
And I'm kind of like, oh, it's fine, I can eat it.
Because I'm pretty icked out by raw chicken.
Does it extend to raw chicken?
It's just what, like, it's in terms of like eating it.
Right, okay.
Like, and if I eat a piece of chicken and for some reason it tastes a little bit strange.
Yeah.
Or the texture's off.
The texture is a big thing.
I'm like, chicken egg.
Louise just texted him.
I only eat chicken breast.
Yeah, right, okay.
Yeah, chicken egg.
And apparently lots of people online are now talking about it.
And it made me think about other things, because obviously we all know the human egg.
Oh, when you get the ick with a person.
And it's an unexplained phenomenon, isn't it?
When you get the ick about someone you're dating, or it can be a friend or it can be anything.
It can come on really fast too.
And you don't really know why, but there's no turning back.
You get that over other things that aren't human related.
Quite often you'll get it with food.
I was thinking about what my non-human icks were.
Yeah, what are yours?
And minor food.
Yeah.
So mine are obviously ripe fruit.
It's more of a phobia than an ick.
Right fruit.
It definitely icks me out.
And I will get hit from time to time with egg ick.
So, and that's when I eat too many eggs.
The egg eggs is another super common one.
I've been trying to eat a high protein diet recently.
And the easiest way I feel like is to just have heaps of eggs.
Totally.
But I reckon my max number of eggs I can do a day is four.
Yeah.
The fifth egg in a day.
Too many.
Oh my God.
I started to think about where it came from, what it actually is.
And I'm like, ugh.
You know what gives me, because I, way more common with the chicken eggs,
but I have got the egg egg from time to time.
You know what gives it to me?
What's that?
You know when, like, I love a runny yolk.
Give me a runny yolk any day, but the runny wipe it.
Oh, yeah. They leave a little bit of snot texture on you.
Like, that can give me the egg X.
Bad.
You guys running any non-human X out there?
Yeah, I've got another food one.
Halfway through a bowl of porridge.
Yeah.
I know this one.
Yeah.
I know this one.
Really?
And then all of a sudden you're like, what am I eating this studgy?
Or even a yogurt bowl.
Halfway through, you're like, no, the texture.
I can't do it anymore.
I've had enough.
You know what gives me the eggs as well as chia?
Halfway through, you're like, old milk?
No thanks.
Chia pudding?
Oh, same texture, yeah.
Agreed.
I can't.
Can't have that.
But it's not the same.
It's not the same as the chicken X or the Egg X, you know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
These are all food ones.
We're keen to hear your food ones.
We're also keen to hear your non-human non-food X too.
Yeah.
I got one.
Yeah.
I hate chicken feet.
Like, looking at them.
No, they freak me out.
Looking at chicken feet.
Yeah.
Not the cooked stuff, really?
Just chickens' feet.
Are you all right with a sea?
Are you all right with a seagull's foot?
No, I don't like, I don't like feet.
Seagull's foot.
What?
It's awful.
Looking at them and the way they move and the way their toes are too long.
Yuck.
All right.
Save space.
9-6-96 or 0800-a-D-M.
What's your non-human ick?
Someone just texted and said,
guys, chicken mints?
Yuck.
Yeah, I don't know what it is, but I'm like, I don't trust it.
Pork mints, yep.
Beef mints, yep.
Lamb mince, give it a me.
Chicken mints, yuck.
ZM's Brian Clint.
in the morning.
We're talking about non-human icks this morning.
Bree's just discussed chicken ick.
It's connected with a lot of people.
Someone's texting Bree and said,
Bree, I hate to tell you,
but chicken ick is ADHD and autism traits.
I'm exactly the same.
I cannot eat chicken off the bone.
Girl, we got the tism.
Yeah, no.
Girl, I already knew.
Gabby's here.
Morning, Gabby.
Morning, Gabby.
Morning, guys.
What's your non-human ick, Gabby?
Crocs.
Crocs.
Any particular types or just crocs in general?
Just any crocs.
They should never be worn in public.
They're the most horrific things in the world.
Listen to how hard it is for Gabby just to say the word crocs.
I know.
Don't go to any school anytime soon, Gabby.
It's all kids wear these days as crocs.
I know, thank God my kids are teenagers now.
Gabby, one of them has them.
Gabby bullied her own kids out of crocs.
She's like, not for you kids.
What are your thoughts on the jenaries?
gibbets they put in them?
Yeah.
Okay.
If you're a kid, that's all right.
But if you're an adult.
What about a grown man who says, oh, I want to get some car gibbets to put him on crocs?
He shouldn't even have crocs.
He's a grown man.
To Gabby, the gibbets are just lipstick on a pig, you know?
Yeah.
What are you doing?
Um, thanks, Gabby.
Gabby, Gibby.
Lynette's here.
Hi, Lynette.
Hi, Lynette.
Hi, Lynette.
Hi.
What's your non-human ick?
Lynette?
Tea bags in the sink.
Oh, that's such a good one, Lynette.
I feel like I have this trauma from growing up in my family home
because my mum will leave tea bags in the sink for days.
There's so much worse when they're cold too.
We asked you what is your non-humanic?
There's some really good ones coming in.
Someone said ripping paper.
Oh, okay.
Someone else said, if I sit on a seat in public and it's already warm,
That's such a good one as well.
You're like, this is someone else's butt heat.
I'll take that one up a level.
Yes.
You sit on a toilet seat and it's warm.
My heck is goldfish with googly eyes.
That's an interesting one.
Someone else said Tesla's with rego plates about gas.
Especially now, eh?
Following some D-bag to work with an in-naught gas.
You're like, go away.
Shut up.
Non-human icks if someone else is brushing their teeth
Hate hate hate hate hate hate hate
What about the feeling of velvet fabric
Gives me the same feeling as nails on a blackboard
Wow
Now you guys have me gagging in the car
Talking about egg snot
Yeah sorry that's the last bit of egg white
That doesn't cook in a fried egg
Egg snod is the worst
Frosted glass
I would rather die from dehydration
than drink water from a frosted glass
Just thinking about it makes me feel physically ill.
You know what it is?
It's the feeling and the texture of frosting glass.
Keep them coming in.
It's ZM's Brie and Clint Podcast.
We're just putting together the definitive list of non-human-based X.
God, there's some good ones coming through on the text machine.
Some very niche ones, which we always appreciate.
Like that toast one.
No, that's not niche.
You don't think that's niche?
I share that one and I believe other people will.
share it. I understand it. I thought it was super
niche. That doesn't give you the
egg? Their non-human it was the condensation
left under a piece of fresh
toast on the plate. I call it
bread sweat. Yep. Gives me the
egg bad. Bread sweat. Someone said
putting non-food or drink products
in your mouth. I get that.
I get that. Yeah. No, Bree. No,
Bree. Don't make that
gesture in the workplace. Didn't do anything.
Someone said microfiber. A lot of microfiber.
actually. Someone said non-human-based
ex Vaughn's Birkenstocks.
Can I just
speak frankly while he's not here?
It gives all of us the ick.
Is it speaking out of turn
ladies, there's three ladies out there,
ladies, ladies.
Leaders, ladies.
It's quite, I believe,
difficult for a man
to pull off Birkenstocks.
Yeah. I've seen it
been done and he has
one, like got a cool vibe,
two socks and burks.
Oh.
That makes it better a little bit.
You know who did do it, the man who did do it?
Jesus.
Jesus, that's right.
Pretty cool.
Fulins got a Jesus vibe with the beard and...
But he isn't a long...
Jesus didn't have a beard, did he?
No, he did.
He had a man bun.
Jesus had long hair and a beard.
Yeah, and Birkenstocks.
That was one of his core tenants.
Non-human X, someone said cotton buds,
especially pulling the cotton butt apart.
I get that.
Oh, you mean the cotton balls?
The cotton balls.
And they make that weird noise.
Yeah.
Eating stone fruit, but your teeth scrape across the pip.
Oh, that's awful feeling that is.
Someone said, guys sucking on a lollipop.
Guys sucking on a lollipop.
Oh, right.
That's bordering on a human arc.
Oh, Georgia thinks that's hot.
Georgia thinks men sucking a lilypop is hot.
Georgia also loves a burkenstock on a man.
She does.
Ooh.
And she loves a mustache and a mullet.
Your dream man is a very interesting.
Your dream man sounds like you're talking about Shannon Noel.
Yeah.
She doesn't know who that is.
Oh, she's going to Google him. Wait, let's see.
It's Matt Corby.
It's Matt Corby, isn't it?
Yeah.
Google.
I think George is more Bogan, though, than Matt Corby.
You know, she would match better with that.
Hold on, she's Googling Shannon Noel.
She said no.
My non-human ick is other people's hair in bathrooms or on furniture.
Yeah, that's yuck.
My hair, that's okay.
Someone else said beef, sausages or mints when it has those little tough balls of fat in it.
Oh, the grisly bits.
Oh, that's awful.
That's your ick.
That's pretty yuck.
Okay.
Yeah, I don't like that either.
Okay.
Someone said also related with the chicken, breasts only here.
You and me both.
The wooden stick from ice creams gives me the ick.
Me too.
Yeah.
The taste of the wooden sticks.
What about this one?
This one is such a good one.
I relate to this.
It says, as a dairy farmer, my ick is putting wet weather gear back on
after being at home for breakfast or lunch.
It is the worst to put, like, wet clothes on.
Stepping back into wet gumboots?
Yuck.
Yeah.
Awful.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And wooden utensils.
Yeah, that's right up there with the wooden ice cream sticks, isn't it?
What would you rather?
Yeah.
What would you rather, wooden, like, spoons, forks, knives, or paper straws.
You can only pick one or the other.
I can get rid of one.
Yep.
I'd get rid of...
What's tough.
It's tough.
I'd get rid of the paper straws.
Wait, as in you'd want normal straws back.
Yeah.
I think I'm with you.
Yeah.
And we'll just deal with the wooden utensils.
Yeah, yeah.
Sorry, turtles.
A ZM's Brinklin podcast.
It's fun doing the mornings because you get to do the concert announcements.
And we've got another concert announcement for you guys at 9 a.m. this morning.
God.
How good is it having Concent?
Having concerts again.
Yes, it's very good.
We've had a heap of them.
Like, the back end of this year,
like, if I look at the back end, I'm like,
wait, the back end of this year.
That is a good looking back end.
The back end of this year.
Yeah.
Aren't we in the front end of this year currently?
Yes, but if I'm looking at the back end,
the back end looks really chalk a block.
You're looking forward to the back end.
You're preemptively viewing the back end.
Yes.
Yeah, right, right, right, right.
I'm here looking forward.
at the back end.
You've craned your neck around the year
to have a look at its back end.
And I'm like, damn, that is Twitter.
You're right, that is a nice back end.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Brean Clint's Friday.
Friday Oaky is our signature karaoke segment
that we do every Friday.
Bree and I go head to head
singing a song that we both agree on
and we get a professional audio engineer
to make us sound as good as we can
and it doesn't generally help.
Yeah, he does the best.
with what he's given.
You know?
Like you can roll a turd in glitter, but it's still a turd.
He's like a master builder charged with building a dream house out of clay.
You know?
It's only going to be so good.
It's still going to look like a pile of turd.
He doesn't blame his tools.
He blames his materials.
Our subject for Fridayokey today is also part of that good looking back end.
And he has quite a good looking back end.
It's Jason DeRullo.
that he is coming back to New Zealand.
He's doing Spark Arena
and today is a special treat.
If you vote in Friday Oakey,
you were in the draw for a free double pass
to see Jason Derulo live at Spark Arena.
Hell yeah.
So, we're about to play these.
And I am a bit scared about...
What's the one? We did want to want me.
We did this one playing.
We did want to want me.
I'd just say a very hard song to sing.
A lot of falsetto in there.
Why did we choose?
choose it. You'll hear mine, then you'll hear
breeze, and then we want you to choose.
Okay, I think I'm ready. I'm ready. Let's do it.
All right. Good luck. Best of luck.
Here's my Jason DeRolo, everybody.
Here we go.
It's to sleep.
I got the sheets on the floor, nothing on me.
And I can't take it no more.
It's 100 degrees.
Because I got to leave, yeah.
In the back of the cab.
I tip to dry the essence of Derulo.
After Rollo was a skinny white guy.
I thought it was quite bloody good.
Someone said, this is not Clint's song, guys.
Look, that is a fair comment.
It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.
That's what I, I think I was...
I was suitably impressed.
Preempting it was going to be a whole lot worse.
But then I was pleasantly surprised.
Happy for you.
Thank you.
You can't vote yet, okay?
No, because you haven't heard Breeze.
Bree could absolutely knock us out of the water.
Someone texts through.
Clint's is better.
You haven't heard of it yet.
You haven't even heard Breeze yet.
Clint's better.
You could be right.
Here it goes.
This is Breeze, Jason DeRullo.
Let's go.
Anything you need to add?
Nah.
I'm excited to hear it.
Let the song speak for itself.
Good luck.
It's too out to sleep.
I've got the sheets on the floor.
And I can take it no more.
That's what teased in and said, just asking for a friend,
when do you two return to the afternoon?
Very soon.
Very soon.
Okay, this is where we throw it over to you guys.
We're looking for five people to call through on 0800 dials at M.
Give us some feedback and pick the winner of Friday Oakey this morning.
They're in the draw for free Jason Derulo tickets,
but you can also text us your feedback on 9-6-9-6.
You sure can.
That will put you into the draw to win those Jason Derulo tickets as well, 9-6-9-6.
The phone votes are important, though.
Those are the ones that are going to decide it.
Yes.
So get on here, have your say.
score free tickets.
Play ZDEM's Bree and Clint.
Friday Oaky time.
Results time.
D-Day, Bree.
We just took on a big task.
Big task.
Jason DeRullos want to want me.
And you guys are charged with picking the winner out of this.
And this.
Girl, you're the one.
Got to say, Sam's done a great job with us this week.
He really has.
He always does.
He's the producer.
He has worked some magic for Friday Oakey.
God, there's some good texts coming in, some brutal ones as well.
Someone said, Bree sounds like the guy from Scissors Sisters and Michael Jackson, but not in a good way.
Can I just, Jason DeRullo in that song does a lot of falsetto.
He does.
And we were obviously trying to mimic Jason's version.
But it didn't come out that way.
How does he do that on stage and do backflips at the same time?
He's the man that can do it all.
Let's get our votes on Storms here.
Morning Storm.
Hi Storm.
Is it, Shavorn?
Oh, who have we gone to?
Oh, yeah, we have gone to Shavorn.
Shavorn.
Hi, Shavon.
Hey, guys.
What did you think about Friday, Oakey, Chavorn?
I think that Brie, you sounded like you had your eyes squeezed shut the whole time you're singing, trying to hit those notes.
I think I did because I was trying to get away from the embarrassing.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I envisioned it fully.
I watched you sing that in my head.
And then Clint, you just sound like the fun, drunk uncle at karaoke that, like, just
won't give up the mic.
Yeah, okay.
I see that.
I'm going to go with Clint just because you sounded fun of.
Bree, I was clenching the whole time.
So, thank you.
So was Bree, yeah.
Thanks, Shebourne.
We appreciate it.
Let's go to Storm now.
Morning Storm.
Hi, Storm.
Hi, good morning.
What's your thoughts?
It was a very close one because, yeah, they were both hard to listen to.
But I've got to say Clint took a little harder just with some of the notes hurt the ears.
So my vote goes to Bree.
Brie.
Thank you, Storm.
Yours was a little less painful is what I heard.
A little less crap and I will take that.
Nice stormy.
You're in the draw for the Jason Derulo tickets.
Amelia's here.
Good morning, Amelia.
Hi Amelia.
Good morning.
Hello.
Happy Friday.
What do you think about our Jason DeRuolo Fridayokies?
You definitely nailed it, Clint.
You, yeah, you captured Jason's essence.
Wow, that's the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me, Amelia.
That's a lovely compliment, Amelia.
You were in the draw for free, Jason DeRolo.
Thank you so much.
Let's go to Tamara on our 800 dial Zid M.
Hi, Tamara.
Hello.
What were your thoughts on our Jason Derulo's this morning?
Like others, painful to listen to.
But didn't give you a laugh.
Yes, it was good, it was good.
That's a plus.
I found Clint's chorus a little hard to listen to,
but that's where I think re took it.
Thank you, Tamari.
You kept me in it.
She's taking us to tie break.
It all comes down to Ellie.
Hi, Ellie.
Hi, Ellie.
Morning, guys.
Oh, my God, you're so powerful right now, Ellie.
Oh, I agree with that text asking when you're going back to afternoons
because it's quite hard to listen to that so early in the morning.
Yeah, we understand.
Yeah, that's fair.
And I feel sorry for Dan having to listen to it repeatedly.
Yeah, look, he's got.
the worst job at the station.
Worst job at the station, Ellie.
Ellie, who are you going to vote for?
So tough.
So tough.
I'm sorry, Clint.
I think Bree was like marginally better.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
I genuinely thought I had it this week, but no.
Get in there, Ellie.
Come from behind.
Victory, thank you.
Oh, you're welcome.
I don't know if I should be saying.
Yeah, you're welcome.
I didn't say you were good.
You were just.
I didn't problem,
you.
Well, thanks, guys.
We will draw the winners of those Jason Derulo
tickets before 9 o'clock.
So if you're keen, you can still text in your thoughts to
9-6-9-6, and we'll get that sorted soon.
Yes.
Well done, Bree.

Happy Friday morning, Beck.
Hi, Beck.
Hi.
What are you up to for your weekend, Beck?
Well, I'm having birth to celebrations for my mum this weekend.
Aw.
How old's mum?
Yeah.
She's 70.
Oh, is it a big one?
Oh, I know.
You getting a stripper?
Yeah, are you getting a stripper?
Yeah.
for the 70th?
I haven't got one planned, but you'd never just know.
Always give it a surprise.
I like what you're doing there, Beck, keep it a surprise.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Imagine your mum.
She would be surprised.
She'd be too stressed if she knew a stripper was coming.
Yeah, like you don't want to stress her out, but just kind of, yeah, just.
Bring it on her.
Exactly.
Don't spray, don't spring it on it.
That's a, no.
Beck, let's do your birthday bagger.
What's your date of birth?
The 12th of the March 1980.
All right, Beck, that means you were 16 in 1996.
And on your 16th birthday, this was number one.
Churn.
Great song for a stripper to dance, too.
Yeah, it's got that rhythm, that vibe.
Slow jam, you know.
You into it, Ben?
Yeah, I love it.
Yeah, I love it too.
It's a great one, Beck.
I feel like I need two or three or four or five Guinness first, but it'll be a little.
go good in the morning, too.
I feel like it's a good vibe.
Jennifer's here.
Morning, Jennifer.
Hi, Jennifer.
Good morning.
A couple of little birdies by the name of our producers told us that it's your
birthday today.
It is.
Happy bloody birthday.
Thank you.
How old are you turning?
27, but 26 according to my mum.
What would she know?
Yeah, was she there at your birth?
It's not her birthday.
Apparently.
Apparently. Jennifer, what is your...
So we've got all the details.
You're 29, which means you were 1999, maybe?
1999, which means, Jennifer, you were 16 back in 2015.
And on your 16th birthday, this was number one.
Actual banger.
This was one of the biggest songs of 2015 for me.
Huge, major laser and moo.
Okay, we're all into it.
Jen, the birthday girl.
One more birthday banger for Erica.
Morning Erica.
Morning.
Morning.
Morning.
What are you up to for your weekend, Erica?
Four-year-old birthday party tomorrow.
Oh, birthday's galore.
Lovely, lovely.
Anything special for the four-year-old's birthday party?
Well, it's not mine, so I think, yeah, well, there'll be cake and candy.
You're getting a stripper?
Yeah, stripper?
No, I was going to say, no, no, Stippers Brisbane, Bree.
It's just someone in a bluey costume.
Taking the head off.
In a sexy outfit.
Erica, what's your day to birth?
19th of March, 1982.
All right, Erica, that means you were 16 in 1998.
And on your 16th birthday, this had a number one here.
Get a jigger wetter.
Oh, change.
This is a good stripper song.
Way before he completely lost his mind,
Will Smith and getting jigger with her.
You like it?
Yeah, not bad.
Probably more of an oasis fan.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
Good to know.
All right, we're going to choose between Will Smith, DJ Snake and Major Laser or Oasis.
Bearing in mind that it's Jennifer's birthday today, and it's a Friday morning.
I think the lean-on song is the vibe.
Do you?
Disagree with me.
Getting jigger with it, Will Smith.
That's my vote, which means we go to Claudia.
Claudia?
Oh, the birthday factor really does weigh in for me.
Take it out then.
Oh, okay.
Take it out.
Probably getting jigger with it.
Bring it.
Lesgeal.
I think you guys have made the right decision.
It's a Friday vibe, you know?
I think you compensated for my decision.
And we found the right decision.
And that's what makes us a great team.
Erica, you're the winner of birthday banger.
Well done.
Wicked.
You too.
You too.
You're my.
Ready, set.
Let's go.
Dance floor broke.
Dead is Franklin.
That's the winner of birthday banger this morning for Erica.
Will Smith getting jigger with it, number one in 1998.
Chune.
Excellent tune.
Someone texts through and said not the right decision.
For once we had two older generation bangers,
and it's still the lame younger song that wins.
This is one of the older songs.
This is one of the older ones, yeah.
Major Laser was the new song.
This is 98.
Wonder War was 96.
Major Laser was 2015.
Yeah.
Someone else said
Will Smith, turn it on.
Someone else said,
Boehler!
Boomtown!
I think we made the right decision.
We were talking about,
you wouldn't believe it,
petrol prices yesterday.
Price of fuel.
Like only ones in the country
talking about petrol.
It's the most boring conversation.
Oh, it is so boring.
That and weather,
but it's the only conversation
that we're having at the moment.
Well, it's the thing that's taking up
most of our brain space.
Yeah.
You know?
Correct.
And one of the things we were talking about, Clint,
was the difference of American fuel prices compared to New Zealand.
That's right.
And which something that came up was the fact that Americans still sell fuel by the gallon.
Yeah.
So they look at the numbers on their board and it says three or so dollars.
And they look at our board and it says three or so dollars.
And they're like, what's the big deal?
Yeah, it's the same.
but a gallon is 3.7 litres.
Yeah.
Yeah, so it's very different.
It's almost four times the amount of what we're getting for the same price.
What is a gallon?
I don't even understand what a gallon is because I know what a liter is.
It's a thousand mills, you know?
So that makes sense to me.
But what is a gallon?
Well, that's what we're here to discuss.
Is a gallon made up of ounces?
So the gallon originated from medieval English.
and Roman systems used to measure wine and ale by the gallon.
Initially varying based on the substance and local custom before being standardized.
The US gallon stems from the 18th century Queen Anne's wine gallon.
Right.
So it's how they measured alcohol.
It must have been a wine carrying vessel.
Yeah, a gallon.
And they knew that that was one gallon.
Right, okay.
It made me think about other old measurements.
Some that people still use today.
Yes.
Which I always find so confusing.
Yes.
You know, what is one that's very common that we still use, most of us,
is obviously the measurement of by the foot.
In the inch.
In the inch.
Yeah.
And then also when we weigh babies.
Oh, pounds.
Yeah.
Why are we measuring the babies in the pounds?
I don't know.
But we're measuring ourselves in kilos.
Yeah, I don't know.
Because I'm very pro-metric system.
But I don't want to hear how tall you are in centimetres.
Yeah, same.
I don't get it.
You're like, I'm 182.
I'm like, what is that?
Do you know where the measurement of a foot came from?
No.
So like five foot.
No.
So apparently originally it was the length of a human foot.
I was going to say that, but I was like, no, that would be dumb.
Which varied by region and era, obviously.
A foot is a human foot.
Yeah.
So like a Roman foot, according to this, was 29.
6 centimetres so it's around.
Which is a ruler.
That's what I like about a foot.
That measurement. I like that's what I like about a foot.
I know how long it is because it's the length of a school ruler.
Yeah.
Do you want to hear some of the other old measurement systems that they used to use?
There was one called the digit measuring by the digit,
which is of course the width of a finger used in Roman and Egyptian systems.
Freaky B is measuring themselves in digits.
How many digits? About four.
What about the measurements?
measurement of a palm.
Oh, a palm.
Which is the width of four fingers or roughly three inches.
Yeah.
A span.
What's a span?
The distance from the tip of the thumb to the little finger with an outstretched hand.
Typically about nine inches.
I've seen builders use that.
Oh yeah, the shocker.
Yeah, it's about a span.
Yeah.
A salt spoon measurement.
Don't know that one.
Have you ever heard that?
Used in early US cooking.
Are we still measuring horses and hands?
We are.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
How many hands?
18 hands.
Crazy.
Yeah.
How tall is your horse?
Oh, it's about 15 hands.
You know what is an old measurement as well is a carrot.
Oh, for a diamond.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it's derived from the carib seed used to measure gemstones.
And you know what else?
In gold.
And gold, yep.
You know what else is an old measurement?
An acre.
Oh, yeah.
So originally defined as the amount of land that could be plowed in one day by an ox team.
That's where you got an acre from.
That's where an acre comes from.
And then, of course, we've got stone, gallon, etc.
My dad still uses stone.
He's like, oh, I've put on about a stone.
There are some boomers that still use stone.
And I'm like, Dad, get with the goddamn program.
I have no idea what a stone is.
But I have just Googled it.
It's like...
How many kilos do you reckon a stone is?
I want to say it's like...
Because a stone, I'm assuming he's referring to us stone.
Yeah, I reckon it's from a stone.
That's where they derive that measurement from.
How heavy's a stone?
I reckon six kilos.
Shit, Brie.
Is it? Is it right?
Yeah, it's 100% correct.
A stone is 6.3 kilos.
There you go.
So how many stone?
Oh, I won't do you.
That'd be rude.
I'll do me.
That would be rude.
What am I?
80-ish, 87.
Oh, no, that doesn't work.
Why?
Why?
Hold on.
This says I'm 550 kilos.
Kilos.
I'll do myself.
Oh yeah, I'm 13 stone.
I'm about 12 stone.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I've got a stone on you.
You got one stone on me?
I've got a half stone.
