You tapped it, so we're playing it. It's ZDM's Brean Clint, the podcast. ZDem's Brean Clint, thanks to KFC. Let's do it. Zedem's Brie and Clint. Good afternoon, everybody, and I mean everybody. And welcome to the Brea and Clint show on a Tuesday. It's my other favorite opener, two days in a row.

Nice robot dance. Oh, thanks. Yeah. You crumping just there? I'm bringing back the crumb. Hey, this is ages away. It's two hours away yet, but we are very excited about it. If you've ever listened in the 5 o'clock hour on a Tuesday,

you'll know the game name in a haystack, where we call a random business with a random name in mind, and if that name answers the phone, they win cash. It's a milestone day for naming a haystack today. It is a big day. It is the hardest game in radio to win, and it goes up $50 a week, and today marks $3,000 up for grabs.

Which means... How many games will we play? This is our 60th attempt at naming a haystack today. God. Yeah. Why would you keep playing, eh? It's a lot of failure. It's a lot of failure.

And are we setting ourselves up for success? Because when you do hit it... Yeah. Like, imagine the feeling. I had a boss once who told me you should fail fast. That's the key is fail fast. If you're going to fail, just fail quickly. Uh-huh.

This is the opposite of it. that. It's a long, this is a long, drawn out. Slow, brutal fail. Or,

or has it been the ultimate tantric buildup to a $3,000 climax today? We should ask new boss Marty that if

name and a haystack ever does go off. Yeah. Can we take the rest of the show off that day? Oh. To celebrate.

Yeah. And if you're in the area, when it, like if you hear it like, we'll say what bar we're going to and you meet us there to celebrate.

I like that. Fun. Could we get the jackpot so big that we talk to the Prime Minister and we say, hey, the day this thing finally goes, can we have a public holiday? We need another public holiday. We do need another public holiday.

This could be official name in a haystack day. Well, five o'clock, guys, if you're keen to hear of today's the day, we will call a random business with a random name in mind, and if that person answers the phone, they'll win $3,000 cash this afternoon. They may have never heard our show before and we will award them the money.

Yeah, that's totally fine. That is the name of the game. We'll continue our search for the unofficial national anthem of New Zealand's today as well. But first, we're going to play Trady versus Lady. Yes, 50 bucks up for grabs. If you want it, then come and get it, why don't you? Oh, 800 dial Z-M, we'll put you on. That's my favourite Selena Gomez song.

William Hanson is that guy on Instagram and TikTok who does the etiquette videos. He's very fancy and he's very proper and he tells you the correct way in which to conduct oneself in certain circumstances. I would be a nightmare for that guy. You would be his worst nightmare. I'd be a challenge. Yeah. I would be a challenge. He has caused a bit of a ruckus this week

because he has put forward the correct way to eat cereal. Now I wasn't aware. I wasn't aware that there was a correct way to eat cereal. Other than maybe don't slurp it out of the bowl. Yeah, but if I'm at home, myself, I'll do what I want. Me too. You know?

100%. Like, when are we eating? Mate, I'll do it at a hotel continental breakfast. Yeah, I probably would do. You know? Anyway. Because that's the only time really, because I'm trying to think of when you're eating a bowl of cereal in public. I'm going to play you what he suggests.

What William Hanson, the internet etiquette coach, suggests that is the correct way for you to be eating your cereal. And then I just want your thoughts. Okay. Okay. Here's how to eat breakfast cereal. First of all, add your milk. choice and then with a spoon held in your dominant hand and the fork in your non-dominant hand you will eat. Now it's not soup so you don't need to scoop away from you like you would

with soup but you can use the fork to push some corned flakes onto your spoon and eat accordingly. He's taking the piss. A spoon and fork. He's trying to see how far he can take it. He goes, I'm going to see how much I could make these idiots do. Because there's no way. in the world you should be eating cereal with a fork. Also, did you catch how fancy he is? He doesn't eat corn flakes. He eats corned flakes.

Corned flakes. Because his flakes have been corned. Yeah, not the other way around. There's other etiquette in there. He just slips other bits of etiquette in without you knowing. Did you know that you're meant to scoop your soup away from yourself? Oh, I'm not doing that. When you put the spoon in, you're meant to scoop it away from yourself?

I didn't know that. Yeah. That to shovel it towards yourself is... is the smart way. No, disgusting, apparently. Because you have to cover more ground. If you're scooping away, then you have to come back. Like, why would I double back on myself?

Well, yeah, exactly. You know, I want to scoop and then straight into my mouth. I wonder how William Hansen feels about the classic Kiwi wheatbacks, milk, and two tablespoons of sugar on top. I wonder what the etiquette is with that. Nothing better. Do I have to put the sugar on with a fork as well? Oh, he'd be mortified at that.

He'd be like, how do you? too. How do you? I'll put sugar on wet peps. All the way Bree makes her Milo, which is cold milk. Yeah, and eight tablespoons of Milo, minimum.

Minimum. Bree's Milo is more Milo than milk. Well, let's, tell us how you have your Milo. Oh, no, no. You think my Milo no, you're at one extreme? Recipe is psycho, but I think

yours is more psycho. Yeah, well, you're at one extreme and I'm at the other extreme. Wait, let's let the audience Decide. Okay, so which one is crazier? Which Milo recipe is crazier? So mine is like give or take eight tablespoons of Milo and some cold milk, stir and then you enjoy the Milo off the top of the milk and then you drink the chocolatey milk. And yours is a tablespoon of Milo into a mug, fill the mug with boiling water and then a dash of milk to cool it down. Yeah, so you've added the milk in. Normal.

you wouldn't. Just a dash. The tiniest fit. Just a dash. It's not necessary. You would drink it without the milk. 100%. Is what I've heard in the past. Milk to taste. Which one? Which one are you having? You can only have one or the other. Text

Bree if you have in mine or text Clint if you haven't Clint's. Text Breeze if you're a child and Clint if you're an adult. Excuse you. There is Brin Clint. Oh no. We have set the cat amongst the accidentally actually. We didn't mean to talk about this.

No. This afternoon. But it is something I feel like people feel passionately about. But do you see what I mean? We are opposite ends of the spectrum. I think I'm in the middle. No, you're not. No, no, no, no, no.

You are not. You are so far at one extreme. And I accept that I'm at the other extreme. I accept that. No, I think I'm in the middle. We're talking about the correct way to have a Milo. If you're in the middle, what's the extreme? People who put sugar in as well.

Which there are people out there. Breeze Milo recipe is. I want to say, I can't remember how many tablespoons. No, say what you said. Well, you change yours. Say what you said. Okay, but then you have to go back to your original recipe. Fine, happily.

Okay. Eight tablespoons of Milo, cold milk, stir it, and then you eat the Milo off the top and you'll leave a little bit, you know, as you're drinking it. Oh, fun. That's a good time. And yours? The original.

Table spoon of Milo in a mug, boiling water. That's it. And someone texts in and said, So Clint's one is hot water with the essence of Milo. I'm not joking when I say the text machine is divided. It is definitely divided. It is. 9010.

No, not 9010. Hey, Claude, can you count up the text and give us a percentage of how it's divided? Because it is divided. You're right. It's definitely divided. It's people on both sides. Like this text, it said clints is way more normal, but the correct way is...

Normal? Mug of milk microwaved for... one minute with two tablespoons of Milo. Oh, well, see, that person doesn't know what they're talking about. I think that's the middle. I actually think that's the middle. That's not the middle. I think that's the middle.

Two tablespoons, that's it. That's heaps. That's not enough. The problem is Bree's having her Milo in a pint glass. Yes. Yeah, yeah. So, might as people have their Milo in a mug. So more than two tablespoons and there's no room for the liquid.

In a mug, you half the recipe. So it's four tablespoons. So it's not that. The math is mapping. Bree, 100% yum. No doubt that it's yum. I'm just also unhinged. Someone said, Clint, you're a rare breed.

Jess is here. Hi, Jess. Who are you going with? Who's Milo you going for? A hundred percent brey. Thank you. No, but you don't actually do that, do you? You don't actually make your Milo like that.

I do. You're 100%. And I've even got my kids to do it too. Thank you, Jess. A lot of Milo and a lot of milk. I feel vindicated. Thank you, Jess. Someone said, Bree, maybe a bit much, Milo,

but Clint, one scoop is diabolical. Someone said, Bree, Bree, 100%. 100% amazing. Go Bree. That sounds delicious, Bree. I'm having Clint's. I grew up in a poor area. Milo and milk are expensive.

Okay, so to that person, Ryan, because I grew up poor as well, and my parents would get angry when we'd have too much Milo. Yes. But if you weren't, and you could have your Milo any way you want to.

No, no, no, no. The topic wasn't what's your dream Milo. It wasn't if you won lot. But you're an adult now. So you can have whatever. But you're an adult. You can have your Milo however you want now. We've had, this is a snap hole.

And we didn't do. Where are the producers at on this? Do you guys want to vote before we? Yeah, vote. I'm 100% with Brie. Thank you, Claudia. That's like minimum. Thank you.

You could put more myo in there. Claudia. You take the bit off the top and drink a bit. Claudia's just saying that because she hates me. Both can be true. No, you do sound a bit ridiculous, Clint. I'm on Brise OK. How do you have that?

Yes, Ella. I don't really have Milo, but I would have lots. Yes. And milk or hot water? Definitely milk, you ding dong. Vegan oat milk. Okay, Claudia's tallied up the text messages and the results are in. So about 21% for Clint.

I was pretty close. Oh my God. In February. I said 90. Hot water? Clint is having, it's pretty much dust with hot water in it. So you're on a diet, but you're like, I'm going to have some milo. You've got to have a milo.

We gave you one of the ones we had one time. I didn't say it wasn't good. Ice cream's good, but I can't have it for every meal, can I? You know? Well, you can. You're an adult. You can do what you want. Yeah.

Well, you bambooz with me with that one. Z-D.N's Brian and Clint. Can everyone stop bullying me for my Milo recipe on the techie soon now? Keep it coming, guys. Clint, are you 90? Someone said, I bet Clint had hot water on his wheatbooks as well. Yes, I did. What about this one?

Clint's Milo recipe is that of an 85-year-old sociopath. That's from a friend of mine. All right, all right, all right, all right, all right. Oh, that's so good. Hey, I saw some news today that I think you guys will be interested. Uber has launched a new feature in the US, which I definitely think a lot of people would want to come here to New Zealand as well. From Monday in the States,

they're going to allow female riders and female drivers to be matched with each other. Cute. Yeah. So you go, I am a female rider. I only want to book a female driver. And vice versa. I'm a female driver.

I only want to pick up female riders. Yeah. And... Oh, yeah, it works for both. It goes both ways, doesn't it? Yeah, it makes everyone feel safe, especially late at night. Correct. You know?

Correct. That's the big one. Uber is facing some backlash from some people in the US who argue that this new woman-only-only feature is discriminatory against men. Oh, God. Come on, bro. Come on, man. So when you say some people? Yeah, some people.

Probably the male Uber drivers, I'd say. Some people. It doesn't say what? type of people, it doesn't say. Can I, this is a genuine plea. Can I please get a woman's only Uber? No, you're not allowed. In my experience, anytime I've got in a woman's Uber.

The best, hey. They're way cleaner. And I've never had a female Uber driver who stunk of B.O. You know? They're always lovely. I genuinely haven't. Yeah, they're fantastic. I always am very excited to get a female driver.

Can I get like a? Maybe you, oh, if you want to pay extra. Oh yeah, okay. And then that means they have to do more background checks on you. Oh, okay, yeah. Yeah, which is fine. You'll pass. And then they'll go, we heard about your Milo recipe.

You're out. You're not allowed in this Uber. You're out. I asked the girls here today if you can get a women's only Uber. What are some other women's only things that you would like? Claudia? I was thinking, and not to like get the men out of there, but like concerts. so that the maximum height kind of lowers.

Oh, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. What a bad idea. Well, you could just have a women's only section. I would love that. Or the tall people can be on the left. Just go to a Taylor Swift concert. Are you calling Taylor Swift fan short? No, predominantly female.

Like, there are certain concerts where it is predominantly female. You got you. Ella jumped in to defend Taylor Swift. For absolutely no reason. For absolutely no reason. She was just like, excuse me. I'm a tennis with fat and I'm not short. You're tiny. Okay, Claudia wants women's only concerts.

Ella, what would you like? I want a woman's only car yard and mechanic. Oh. Do you get it? Less intimidating. It's less intimidating. They understand that I've got no idea what's going on, but they're like cool and they know about cars and that's kind of hot.

Women mechanics so hot. Can I... Sorry, what? What were we talking about? I don't know. Can I buy a car from the women's only car yard? No. You respect them.

It's women's only. Yeah, I'm too. No, but is there an issue with me buying a car? Obviously, you don't want me to sell you a car. Yeah, the men are allowed. But we're allowed to buy cars? Yeah, as long as you're allowed. Yeah, and you're allowed to go to the female mechanics.

Am I allowed to explain to the woman's car dealer? I'll see now you banned. The details of the car. You banned now. So I panicked. Here we go. But you know what would be cool to have a women-only version of that Ocean's 11 movie. They did that.

Yeah, I think they've done that. They did that with Rihanna. It's Oceans Aid, isn't it? Yeah, it is. I knew that, but I didn't know if you guys knew that. It's all right. We got car yard, mechanic, concert. What about?

What about Parliament? Yep, now you're talking snaps. It's like Barbie. Let's do it. It's like Barbie. We do it. Z&M's Brie and Clint podcast. we brought you the news of Timothy Shemalay's podcast,

which has angered a lot of people in the arts sector, hasn't it? Oh, people are up in arms about this. The opera singers, the ballet dancers, after comments he made on a podcast about how no one cares about those two things anymore. I admire people when I've done it myself to go on a talk show, and go, hey, we've got to keep movie theaters alive. You know, we've got to keep this genre alive.

And another part of me feels like if people want to see it, like Barbie, like Oppenheimer, they're going to go see it and go out of their way to be loud and proud about it. And I don't want to be working in ballet or opera or, you know, things where it's like,

hey, keep this thing alive even though no one cares about this anymore. And he was, like, he didn't stutter. Like, he was so sure about the comment that he was like laughing. You know what he's done? He's accidentally said what he really thinks. Uh-huh.

It's dangerous. It is dangerous. He's let, it's like that Simpsons Club where he goes, oh no I said the quiet part loud and the loud part quiet I wonder if he did like a weed brownie before that chat

you know and then everything just came out I believe the exact words were no one cares about these things and he was talking about opera and ballet he should have said I don't really care for these things which I feel like

would have got a different response but people are angry too because I think they feel like he might have struck a chord where people go, oh yeah, I do care about those. And the opera and the ballet people, and look, it's not us saying that, okay?

But the opera and the ballet people are like, guys, shut up. We get a lot of funding and we just fly under the radar, okay? Just leave us alone with our fancy tites and our expensive tickets. I figured, if we're canceling things, why don't we just have a big clear out?

Oh, no. In this afternoon, We're going to put together the list of things that we think no one else cares about. Oh no. And maybe we start a movement. Oh, then you go first. And maybe we get rid of them.

I'll go first. I'm happy to go first. Yeah. Because I feel strongly about this. Okay. Can we please get rid of because I believe nobody cares about these anymore? No one.

Can we please get rid of funny and creative airline safety videos? Just show me where the goddamn life jacket is and show me which exit to get off and then let's go. Wrap it up. Let's go. Can I just have a bit of input here?

I say bring back the flight attendants doing it. I loved when they did it. I was like, this is way more engaging to me. And get out the seatbelts. I'm sure they don't want to do it because they're like, shut up, Bree. It's the worst job. I don't want to see...

I have to put that bloody dirty life jacket over my head. I don't want to see scenery. I don't want to see birds. I don't want to see kings. I just want to see how the seatbelt goes into that. And then I want to go. And that's it. And that's it.

Okay. Love. Oh, see, that one was safe from you, I think. Yeah, I'm trying to get a gauge on how far to go. Yeah. Look, I'm just going to throw caution to the win. Breit, I'll ask you. I'll ask you, Bree.

People are going to come for me. What do you think no one cares about? Look, guys, I don't think anyone really cares about poetry. Get rid of it. Boring. What about slam poetry? Poetry. Look, it's annoying.

Well, are you a poetry man? No, but... When was the last time you went, I'm going to go read myself some poetry? Well, never, but... So, so? But most of your favourite lyrics are poetry. Yeah, but that's different. That's lyrics. Oh, okay.

It's musical lyrics. I'm talking about O-G poetry. Okay. Like Flandersfields. Yes. Right, okay. Nah, get rid of it. Okay.

You can say whatever you want You can say whatever you want At least I towed the line You went so far safe That you're over here sitting pretty No one's going to come for you Whereas I've gone for the whole poetry community No I've got a risque one down too

No you did I did Yeah go on No one cares about your LinkedIn post That's not That's not That's good of All right Ella what are we getting rid of

What does no one care about Art shows Art shows Yeah I don't care about a banana on a wall I don't care about who Modern art Modern art Paper machet statues

I don't care Leave that in the old Olden days You're saying get rid of art galleries No art galleries are fine Because that's history I'm talking about I'm going to an art show tonight

And it's new art Okay so all the good paintings have been made Yeah No more No more No more On a wall You're talking about the stupid art

installations. Because the banana on the wall is stupid. That's silliness. Okay. Art can stick around. That's beautiful. Because I was going to say if you're coming for all of art, I don't know if I can get on board that one. That's a big broom. That's a big one.

Even though I went for all of poetry. Don't come for me, you safety man and poetry lady. Don't be upset, okay? Stand in your truth. I am. And don't be so reactive. Okay. Say it, loud and proud, like I did. And just stand in your truth.

Okay. Claudia. Here we go. What do you think no one cares about and we should get rid of? Mine's risky because I know there is a market for it, but I feel like the majority don't care. Esports. Whoa!

Like, who actually cares about, like, esport competitions? Everyone's sitting together with different gaming controllers. I agree. I agree wholeheartedly. Fantasy Football League. Am I right in assuming that you're not saying get rid of? of gaming.

No. Don't get rid of video games. It's a great hobby. But get rid of the category of competitive game. Yeah. The organisation of the competitive gaming. We're going to get cancelled.

We're the second radio show to go. We're not going to get cancelled. We're asking people what should be cancelled. Like this, someone texts in and said, no one cares about your run on Strava. I thought that too. But I care. No, I don't.

No one cares about seeing your wedding photos again. Post them once and leave it at that. That's true. That's good. That's real chat. I also don't care about people's dogs Instagrams. Oh, get rid of animal Instagram pages. I think animal Instagrams in 2026 need to go.

Yeah, get rid of them. Yeah, you got one. And so does Clint. He's got one for his cats and one of the cats is dead. Oh. And you still post on it. Do you? You what?

Ouch. RIP. I'm keeping him. memory alive. You only put paid posts on there. It's what she would have wanted. That's true. She did love money.

0,800 dials at M, or you can text it to 9669. Could be controversial, but what, like Timothy Shemarle in the ballet, like Brie and all of poetry and Ella and all of art, what do you think no one cares about? Yep.

And we can get rid of. Needs to go. If we're having a clean out, let's have a clean out. Let's get rid of all of it. Like this. Get rid of golf. Whoa.

The ZM Podcast Network. Timothy Shamillay came out and said get rid of the opera and the ballet because no one cares about it. And it has thrown a cat amongst the pigeons. But he spoke his truth, didn't he? So we've asked you to speak yours and tell us what do you think no one cares about? And what else should we get rid of? Have no filter and just tell us what you really think.

Bree said poetry. Which is very funny. Alice said art Hell yeah Claudia Which Claudia's meant to be the art hater on this show Yeah she is the known art hater What was your one?

E-sports E-sports Very good You guys weren't happy with my one about Funny safety videos on flights Yeah But it's safe You went for the real safe option

Okay cycle lanes Ooh See that's better That's much better No one uses them The only people I ever see using them Are drunk people on lime scooters and who cares?

See, welcome. Welcome to the no filter lane. That's good. Doesn't it feel like you're out in the middle of the ocean with no floaty? Have you ever seen a full cycle lane? Never. Never, ever. They'll get cars off the road.

All I see is me and my car with one less lane because there's a cycle lane and there's no one in it. I hate to say it to you, but we never drive and peak our traffic either. You and I? Yeah, which I feel like that's when people would mostly be using the cycle lane. Okay, 9696.9. Bree and I aren't on the roads. If you drive between 7 and 9 a.m., are the cycle lanes full? Are there a decent amount of people in the cycle lane where you're like, that's worth it?

Lynette is here? Hi, Lynette. Hi, Lynette. Hey, how are you? We're good. The question is, what do you think no one cares about so we can probably get rid of it? Facebook posts on your birthday. Oh, that's...

Such a good one, Lynette. Honestly, I'm going to get spicy about it because it's passionate about this. Yeah. Lynette. Go for it, Lynette. Please, let loose, let loose, go for it. You get, like, people that you're friends with because you just want to be nosy when you're doom scrolling.

Next minute, it's so-and-so's birthday. Okay, happy birthday. And then a year later, it's the only post you see from this person is happy birthday every year on year. I've got an idea how we can eradicate this. literally everyone go to their Facebook, take your birthday off of your profile. My husband did.

Yeah. My husband did because of this. Yeah. And then it gets rid of it. But then you also get people that are like locked in on Facebook and see you in the street on your birthday, say happy birthday. Then they'll get home and post it on your walls.

Oh no, that's psychotic. No, no, no, no, that's psychotic. That's too much. If I take my birthday off Facebook and you still post happy birthday on my wall, then that means something. Yeah. Because you remembered my birthday.

We asked, what do you think no one cares about, so we should just get rid of it? Someone said the cycle lane talk made me think I accidentally switched to news talk, said, B. I'm trying. Hi, I'm Heather, and who the hell are you? I'm Marcus. Yeah, good Marcus, lush. Guys said great Tuesday topic to wind people up, guys. So we might as well chuck anime on the list.

Yep, put it on the list. You reckon no one cares about anime? Someone said get rid of trans Tasman passports. Okay, now we really are on News. on Sydney. Hey guys, no one cares about whales. I've got a great one. The animal.

Wales. Wales. Not the country, the animal. W-H-A-L-E-S. I care about both the animal in the country. Which one do you care about more? I have to say the country. You have to say the country.

There's a lot of people live there. Correct. And Wales don't. But I also cared very deeply about Wales. I had a really good one. And now I lost it. You think about it. I've got it back.

Okay. I've got it back. What do you think no one cares about so we can get rid of it? I feel so passionately about this. Any sort of fun run marathon, get rid of it. Hey. The bay to bays and the coast to coast and the bay to the coast. Don't care.

Ella's husband just came. Came second and round the base. Second, Bree. You tell that to Ryan. Second. Get it. And shove it in the bed. I must second that, Bree, though.

I don't care about freaking... I nearly swore. Freakened run clubs. I think they're the stupidest thing. Who wants to get coffee afterwards when you're all sweaty? And then you're smiling and you're sweaty gear. Get rid of it. It's stupid.

Agreed. Thank you. Geez, tell us what you really think. Get rid of Snapchat stories at every concert. Okay. Yeah. No one cares about recycling. Someone said,

no one cares about recycling. Someone said, get rid of Rubik's Cube competitions. Get rid of cricket, it sucks. Hey, you're just saying that because we lost the World Cup yesterday, okay? Okay, we're still hurting. Just to give it time.

Get rid of car ridges. What a waste of money. So true. Do you really care about the whales, Bree? Did you care about them when you pooed in the ocean? Get rid of those texts. It's been three.

How many years has it been? Two or three. It's been two. Get rid of participation certificates. No one cares, bro, unless you won. Get rid of taxes. This is so good. Yes, producer Ella.

Get rid of vlogs that are the day of my life. I don't care. I don't want to see you like turning on the light to go into your bathroom. I think they're stupid. Oh, hi-derade. Thank you. Someone said, get rid of family passes, which is, two adults and two kids.

Not all families fit that bill. Change it for the rest of us. Get rid of... I like it. Get rid of radio DJs. Hey, they're trying to do that and we're not happy about it, all right? It's ZAM's Bree and Clint podcast. We're going to play Let's Get Classical next.

It's the game where Bree and I take on producer Ella at guessing songs that have been recreated in classical style. We're coming off the back of a win. I think we're coming up the way back of it. of back to back wins. Can you speak? Oh, she's throwing shade already. She's not throwing shade well though.

Nah. She's just mean when she tries to be like. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. It's not like witty or articulate. It's just, you know, low blows. Straight down the line, baby. Low blows.

Yeah, because you're used to low blows. What does that mean? What does that mean? Sorry, not like jokes. Have you been at my house? No jokes. God, is that a homophobic joke? Don't want to.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I had an inkling that she was a little bit of a homofore. How did this turn on me? Wow. How did this happen? I love love. Be careful where you place your vote this week, okay?

You can vote for Team Brean Clint or Team Homophone. Don't even. Don't put that. Inclusivity? Yep. Or regressive exclusivity. I'm like women. Women are pretty. Is that all they're good for?

Is that all they're good for, is it? Oh, shut. You're not going to win this one. Whatever. Prove it. Got me all. Yeah, we've got a woman right here. I'll kiss you.

I'll kiss you. Okay, look, now this is getting into HR territory. Oh my God. Team Ella, team Brian Clint. You pick it, you correctly pick it. You could win 50 KFC chicken dollars. No means no, Ella. And consent is important.

I love you. Stay away. It's ZM's Breanclin' podcast. Let's get classical. Brinclints. Let's get. Classical. The game where we guest pop.

songs in classical style, can I say I really enjoyed the text which said, God, Timothy Shamillay would hate this game. Because he doesn't like the classics. Does not like the classics at all. Says get rid of the classics. It's Team Brian Clint versus Team Producer Ella.

And if you're like, that seems unfair. She's meant to be better at us than this. She's got more of a musical ear. Yeah. She's the most musically inclined. I can, yeah. On the show. No offense, Claudia. You're next.

It goes Ella, Claudia, me, Clint. Yep. Okay. Obviously. Anyway, we combined to bring ourselves up to Ella's level. And yet, Bree, we are staring down the barrel of a three-peak. We sure are. You guys throw me off with your annoying faces.

You just get under my skin. Close your eyes then. Close your eyes. Sorry for existing. Claudia is in charge. Claudia, when you're ready, let's get into a fresh round of Let's Get Classical. Okay, I've got a pitch for you also. Next week, maybe we should split you two up.

But something to think about. Somebody think about. We could have three teams. This is the only time Clinton and I get to be a team. Yeah, but you guys are dominating now, so. We make a good team. We can talk about it and come back. So the way the game works, these are pop songs that have been reimagined in a classical way,

and you guys are guessing what they are. As always, artist, name of the song. Need everything. Buzz in with your name if you know it. Here is your first song. I actually just screamed. but part of me. No.

For a guest or we can all jump back in. Ella! I got it. I got nothing. You got anything? Halo, Beyonce? No. Ella.

Yep. The one that got away, Katie Perry. That's the one. Wow, pretty good. No, neither. I was so far. That is genuinely impressive, Ella. That was very good.

Thank you. Can't we pressure now. Yeah. Pressure. You guys rattled? Yeah. Okay, one point to hour. No, not rattled.

Yeah, no, it's sort of whatever. Yeah. Solid as a rock. Neither. Here's another song. Clint. Damn it. Brian.

I'll say one part. You say the other part. You say the other part as well. Oh, no. Gracie Abrams. That's so true. That's so true. Thank God.

See, we make you a great team. So we're good. It's all good. I'm ready. Here we go. It's tie break. Yeah, this is for the win. Calm, everyone.

Here's the last song. Clint. Stop it! Stop it right now! Are you about to win this for your team? You can win it if you're quirk, otherwise I'll count you down. Three, two, she doesn't have it. I do have it, but... Ella, free guess, or...

She doesn't have it. I've got it, I've got it. Ella, American Girls Harry Styles. No. That's fine. You've got it, you've got it? Or you can have a little bit of a listen, but it's a rest because she can come back. I've got it. I've got it. How long do I have?

You have to tell me right now or we'll start the song. Sabrina Carpenter. Oh. No? No. Okay. Okay. Okay.

We're back in. Back in. Oh, what's that? Clint. Clint. Doa Leba Dance the Night. No. I thought you had it.

Ella? Got anything? Hang on. Shush everyone. You got to be quick. I'll just keep going. Oh. It's there, but it's not there.

It's so bad. Keep going. How is that? Oh, Clint. Do you have it? No, no. Clint? Just go for it.

Is it not Sabrina Carpenter? No. But then I don't have that. Still not. Okay. Where the shot? Timberlake dance. It's not dark.

It's not dance. Just imagine. Oh, Clint. Oh, the one where he's going to dance. Yeah. Justin Timberlake can't stop the feeling. Can't stop the feeling. Clint's got it.

Terrible song. You know what it sounds like? It sounded like that Sabrina Carpenter one. Oh no, that is Justin Timberlake. God. Todd. That was a messy old last round that one. It was exciting though.

It was devastating. It was. It was messy, yeah. Get in there, Todd. You picked the right team though. Todd, we've got 50 KFC chicken dollars for you. Awesome. Thank you very much, guys.

No worries. You are welcome. I need a wee after that. I think I tweaked a hamster celebrating. Why are you holding your gooch then? Glute. Are you glute? Play ZDEM's Bree and Clint.

We have begun the quest to find New Zealand's unofficial national anthem. Not, what is our national anthem? God defend New Zealand, not that one. No, this is the unofficial anthem. The one that could come on at a festival and everybody would stand up and put their hand over their heart. The one you could hear in a pub in London

and every Kiwi would just flock into the same spot. Correct. We started the conversation yesterday. By far and away, the most popular submission so far is Sir Dave Dobbins' slice of heaven. But Brea and I are confident that once we put it to a voting process, it won't be that clear cut. No, I hope not, because I think then this is what this is for, to have more of a conversation and a battle where we truly find the unofficial. NZ anthem.

And that's what I want to do right now. I want to have a conversation about some outliers. Okay? Yeah. We have probably a core of about 20 obvious songs that we will put head to head. We do need more than that. And so here are some songs that I would probably say are B or C list options to be considered our unofficial anthem.

Yeah, to be crowned the unofficial anthem. But should they still be given a chance? Because once they go in, they have as much chances down. Dave Dobbin, they have as much chance to 660, you know? Yeah. You never know what's going to happen. Yeah. So when I ask you the question, should these outliers be included in the competition to become our unofficial national anthem?

You have to, by saying yes, you have to be happy with the idea that it could win. Yep. Okay? Yeah. So if it did end up winning, then you would need to be comfortable with it. The first one I want to put to you is from a New Zealand band called Golden Horse. Okay. Are we okay with this being our unofficial national anthem?

It's lovely It's great hold music It's great hold music I don't know it's on the cusp for me Because I've never heard it I'd be able to put it in only because I don't think it's going to win Okay But if it did

You'd have to be happy with it Just just roll that around in your head Okay Would we be happy if New Zealand's original idol Ben Lomas was the unofficial anthem of New Zealand I'd be happy. I have to say, I don't want it. It would be my first choice.

But I would be happy with it. If it won on democratic process, then I would say this is what the people want. Well, that's what we want. We voted for him as our idol. Now we vote for him as our anthem. They put on Ben Lomas as they stand up there to receive the gold medal.

Lisa Carrington's there. I quite like it in that context. Yeah. Okay, these are the outliers. And this one's controversial because is it more of an Australian song or is it more of a New Zealand song? It's our very own Kimbra.

Could this be our unofficial anthem? I think it has to be in the mix. It's... Yeah, yeah. I don't think it'll win. But would you be okay if it did, you know? People are texting through going, these choices are rubbish.

No, we've done all the... Yeah, these are not... Yeah. These are not our number one choices. This is the conversation around, you know, do these out. outlier songs have to be included. Yes, someone texts through and said,

Bless by the dudes. No, we've done that. Bliss by the dudes is in. That's a given. That's an A tier. These are the other ones. These are like C tiers. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's like we've got Ferrari and we've got Red Bull locked in. We're talking about Haas. Okay? We're talking about who else is garbage? Steak. Yeah, exactly right. This is a weird one, but it came through. Should there be a jump jam song in consideration to be our unofficial New Zealand anthem?

I think it's in. I think it's out. You think it's out? I think it's a bridge too far. Okay. Nan doesn't know what jump jam is, you know? She's still a part of this country. Man still gets on up, don't you worry about that?

What about when she's down? Because when she's down, she's down. Oh, she's had a fall then? She's had a fall, yeah. Okay, so Royals is in. Does Lord get a second song? I think she does. Contrave.

I think royals shouldn't even get a look in. I think we go for another song from Lord that people just truly love. Yeah. Like ribs. No. No. Supercut or buzz cut season.

No. Because no one's going to vote for royals because it got so overplayed. They'll just be like, oh, royals. And they just ride it off. You know, whereas if they go ribs love that song? Yeah, right. Let's put solar power in. Should Lady Hawk be in consideration for our unofficial anthem?

I said it yesterday. This has to be on the list. I agree. It's a great song. This is a Ripper. She still has, I have a huge soft spot for this person still. I think she's fantastic. And she has to have a song in there.

And is it this one from Brooke Fraser? I think it's in. I think it's in too And this is the last Oh no Another one This could this be an outlier From Auntie Anika Moa

Oh get it anika I say no I say yes As our unofficial national anthem Especially in case she's listening Nah I'd say it to her face And she'd appreciate that too She'd be like respect

Someone a text through and said is Savage in the running? Yes. Yeah, it is. Savage is on the A-Lest. Savage might even have two. We're tossing up whether Savage has one or two songs in the mix. There's a potential that Savage is on three songs.

Yeah. Because if it's not many the rematch, then he's got that swing and freaks. Yep. So, yes. He might have three. Someone said True Bliss. Yep. Yeah, we added True Bliss today.

True Bliss is added. Has to be in it for sure. Does Avalanche City go in? I heard your heart say. To the Avalon. I have a launch city fans, but I hate this song. It reminds me of like insurance company or power company ad. I get it.

I got it, yeah, yeah. I saw him last weekend. Doesn't listen to the show, does he? No. It's not their fault. I'm pretty sure I've got news for an ad. Yeah, right. He got news for like 15 ads.

Yeah, yeah, right. But he's good. He's living on a boat. It's good navigato farm. He's good. Someone said his. Oh, Haley Westernra. Jeez.

What's that? What's Haley Westernra? Did Haley Westerner have a single? She was like our original like opera singer. Right. Did all the anthems at the games, that kind of thing. International level singer. She did have a single, I think.

Anna Mac girl in stilettos. Well, yeah, so that's the question. Shea Fu. I'm pretty sure we added Shea Fu. Oh, we have to have Shea Fu fade away on there. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. How far do we go with it, I guess? Midnight Youth.

Oh, Midnight Youth. Has to be on it. The letter? All of, like, everyone needs. an equal chance. Obviously it's not going to be completely equal because some people will have two songs. Yes. But that's because they're worthy and that they deserve to have two songs. All the obvious ones again. Poir is already in there. It's in there. The fringes are your Benny Tipanees that are coming through. Yes, the kids of 88, maybe. Oh, I love that song from the kids of 88.

Afterglow is in there. Afterglow by Wilkinson and Becky Hill is in there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's already in. Evermore is already in. Fast crew already in. I think a D's, at ease has to go in there. So, okay. Dane Rumble, he's already in. Dane Rumble is in. Dane Rumble is in. Yeah, Dane Rumble is in.

Oh, when the cats, the cats away melting pot? Okay, let's see, that's... Someone said it's white lines by 660 in, that's in. That's in. And, um, what was the other 660 song we put in? Don't forget your roots. Oh, that's a good one.

And Kings? Kings, don't worry about it, is in. It's in. All these suggestions are great suggestion. are great. I have just posted on our Branclin Instagram so we can have it in the comments. Okay.

And, you know, put together a list. Yes. Yeah, yeah, nice. Element AP, that's on there. It's on. Good, good. I'm just like answering some of the texts that are coming through.

There's so many. This week is about throwing, casting the net as wide as we can. Next week is about voting. Here's a question we haven't talked about yet. What about Susie Kato? See you see you later. I think it has to be in. I do too.

It's in. Yeah, I do too. Yeah. Yeah, put it on the list. All right, thank you. Go to our Instagram story at Bree and Clint. Have your say, because if you don't, we might not think about it and it might not get on to the list to become New Zealand's unofficial national anthem.

It's a Tuesday and on Tuesdays we go looking for a Name in a Haystack. Hot diggerid down. Today is monumental in the world of Name and a Haystack. It's the best. pinnacle. So far. So far. So far. I mean, who knows how high we'll go in this game. We might get as high as 10 grand in this, but today marks the $3,000 mark. $3,000. It goes up $50 a week that it doesn't get struck. So that shows you how long this game has been failing for. A long bloody

time. If you've never heard it, we get one of our producers to come up with a random name and the other producer, independent, to come up with a random business. And they're not allowed to speak when they're coming up with these two different things. Nope. We then call that business and if a person answers with that randomly selected name, today they'll win $3,000. Last week we talked about banning Ella from choosing the name. That's right, because what did you pick last week?

Fletch. That's a fine name. I was going for something in the ZDM family. Fletch. It's a nickname, though. Is it? His last name's Fletcher. So she's on stand down this week from the name.

Oh, my gosh. Also, it's his surname. Yeah, that's what Claudia just said. You don't know his name is Carl. Yeah, I know his name's Carl, but people are called Fletch. You could have picked Carl. I would have been happy with Carl. Ella's having a week off choosing the name this week.

Yeah, she is. I reckon a couple weeks off. Claudia, we would love to give someone $3,000 today. What name are we looking for? I'm going nice and simple today. We are looking for Adam. Adam. Adam's good.

Adam. Adam's fine, right? Adam's a very normal name. Adam's quite a common name. Great job, Claudia. Ella's pissed. Ella. Ella, you can redeem yourself here.

I'm going. Where does Adam work? She's going to pick a crematorium or something. A button workshop. No. A box factory. An old folks home. I am going for the rock shop in Nelson.

Okay. Appropriate everyone? I like it. I'm happy with that. Yeah. Okay. Claudia, when you're ready, please connect us to the Rock Shop in Nelson. We're today if Adam answers the phone, he'll win $3,000 cash,

and we will have found a name in a haystack, finally. This could be it. Nelson Rock Shop, Brent, speaking. Did you say your name was Brent? That's correct. Hi, Brent, it's Brian Clinton here from ZM. How are you? Oh, good, I do. We're good.

We play this silly game on our show, Brent, called Name in a Haystack, where we pre-pick a name. Have you ever heard of it? No. So we come up with a random name and if a person, if we call this random number and the person with that name answers,

they win $3,000 cash. And the name we were looking for today was Adam. So Adam Sandler, how does that sound? Is he there, is he? If he was there. Is he there? Do you guys have an Adam that works at the rock shop? Not in this branch, but there is one.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Don't beat yourself up. We've played this game that many times and we've never had a winner we're yet to find one it's never been successful Brent

oh well I guess you'll keep your $3,000 and we won't get it no all right hey what's the hot instrument what do all the kids want to play these days well they really want to be guitar heroes or DJs oh god damn those drummers around but yeah those bloody DJs

no one thinks they can do it thanks mate you have a good one see you Brent all right no good the rock shop in I thought it was like selling like quartz and... Oh, that kind of rock shop. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like Pownamu and stuff. So when you asked about... You asked about instruments, I was like, what are you doing? Hey, Brent, you got any scoria? And Ellen's at the rock show and you're like, yeah, perfectly normal. I was like, I wonder if they've got any obsidian. I'm after some. Oh, well, we came, we saw, we failed.

Yep, again. And next week we'll go for the totally random number of 3,000. $1,050. Onwards and upwards, guys, because it's the only way we can go in this game. There is Brankland. Look, guys, I need to be honest. There is still time to back out of what I'm about to tell you. Because I think...

Time for you to back out. Time for me to back out. Okay. Of what I'm about to tell you. Right. Because I think karma could be coming for me. Okay. In a big way.

So here's the situation. Producers, you guys need to be in on this. last week I told you guys that I asked my partner Sophia to marry me correct oh god you're not thinking back now that are you? No no no no no no no

we made so many videos I just realise how bad that sounded it's nothing to do with backing out of the proposal I would never that's one thing I'm positive about there is still time for her to back out though good point and here's the thing so here's what's happened

so she has gone off to work this morning and she goes early. She's a nurse. She works very long hours and because she's a nurse, she can't wear any rings. No. Right? Can't wear any rings. So the engagement ring, obviously she can't wear it to work. Stays at home? Stays at home. Yeah. Which I didn't really think too much about that. I only thought about it when this morning I got up was brushing my teeth, was doing my face care and I've opened

the cupboard in our bathroom and I've looked down and here's the engagement ring sitting in the bathroom cupboard. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. And I thought to myself No. Wouldn't it be funny?

I know we've done. If I hid the ring and made her thing that she's lost. So I've done that. You're crazy. But here's the thing. There's still time to back out of the joke.

She's not home from work here. She gets home after me. She starts before you and she gets home after you. So she's exhausted. And you've thought in your boredom, wouldn't it be funny to make her think she's lost the ring Yeah Wow

I told you that this was a calmer situation That if I go through with this Look I want to say it's a distasteful joke Especially because it's so Like soon after the proposal Also I understand when partners do this If the other person is sort of like Hapazard about where they leave the ring

And they want to teach them a lesson What's the lesson here? It's a prank right? Careful who you marry. Yes. Yeah. You know how many times in the last week where something has happened and I've said to her, you said yes, no take-back season.

Okay. This might be another one of those situations. I don't want to meddle in your relationship. So I'll just talk you through this as a friend. What is your gut telling you? My gut's telling me no. It depends how you play it. But my body.

Someone on the text machine's just written cruel. Hey, there's still time. This is why I'm coming to you guys. Another text. Don't do it, Bree. Well, text her, she's done it. She's asking us if she should undo it. I can reverse it and she'll never know.

This is the thing. I can reverse it. I want to know. I'm in two minds about this. I think it's kind of funny. How are you going to play it out? So if she comes home, finds the ring, what happens?

Great question, yeah. So, no, comes home, finds the ring is missing. Yeah, so this is what I was thinking. I'm not going to lead a horse to water, so I would say nothing, right? So she'll come home. And eventually, because, I mean, it's so cute, how much she loves

this ring. Like, she just puts it, like, she just wear, like, constantly is like, look at this ring. And constantly, you know, she's in that stage where she just wears it all the time. And so when she goes to find it, And obviously there's going to be a moment where she goes,

oh my God. The ring. What's the ring? So that's the moment. Are you going to say something? I knew this was going to. Oh, I should have never gave you that ring. Do you think if she finds it missing that she'll tell you straight away?

This is the point. Because when I lost my ring, which I have lost my ring before, I didn't tell my wife for about a week. You freak out quietly. You freak out quietly and you look in all the places. So meanwhile you see her getting more and more stressed. Babe, why are you Swedish? And you're just like.

See, that I don't like. I would never want to like prolong it for like a week. Are you doing it for the reaction? It'd be a straight like, she'd freak out for like 10 seconds and then I'd go, oh, I hit it. You know, and then everyone laughs. Someone said, Brie, what if you forget where you hit it? Yeah, do you know where it is?

Oh shit. Whatever. Someone said, has someone text your partner warning her? Someone said she knew who she married. Play on. Z-Dames, Brian Clint. Bring Clint. Let's do your birthday bangers first, though.

Number one songs when you turn 16. Who we got first? Jade, and it's Jade's birthday tomorrow. Hi, Jade. Hi. What are you going to do for your midweek birthday? birthday, Jade? Um, well, tomorrow and I'm going out for dinner.

Yeah. With the family and some friends then, sitting out with pissing. Pissing up. Yeah, Jade. You seem like a very level-headed person. Jade, should I hide my partner's engagement ring or no? No, absolutely not. That's been the very...

It's the predominant sentiment, isn't it? General consensus on the text machine, which I've taken on board. Still... Still breeze decision, though. Clint really wants me to not do that. No, I want you to decide. No, you want me to not do it for the story on the radio tomorrow. No, no.

For the fallout? I actually don't want anything to do with it. Okay, so that tells me that I should definitely go rectify my wrongs. Jade, it's about... Yes, Jay. I feel like if my partner hid my engagement ring, I would absolutely flip. But what if it's just for like a five-second flip? Like, oh, where's my engagement ring?

and I'm like, ha ha, hit it. Oh, that's okay then. All right, Jade, on your birthday, Eve, what year were you born? 1999. Okay. All right, that means you were 16 and 2013, Jade, and we've done your calculations. Here's your birthday bang. Oh, that's a gooder.

It is a goodie, yeah. It's such a good, Justin Timberlake. It might be. And is this a mean thing to say? It might be Justin Timberlake's last great song. Yeah, it could be. Yeah? I did that song for the trolls movie.

Has he been putting out good music? Like, just recently. I feel like all his old music's probably like where it's at. He's been dealing with the DUI he got last year. For real, though. He's been trying to get, um... Yeah, for real, yeah. Trying to stop them from releasing the body cam footage.

Hannah's here for a birthday banger. Hi, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. What is your birthday, Hannah? Sevens of the Sex, 1990. All right, that means you were 16, Hanna, in 2006. And I feel like your song is going to really suit you.

Oh, yeah. Chargillian, yep. Camillion, yeah. Oh, no, Camillionaire. Camillionaire, yeah. What do you reckon, Hannah? I reckon that's a classic. It is a classic.

It is a classic. Okay, wait there. We're going to do Violet's birthday banger. No, we're going to do your mum's birthday banger, Violet. Hi. Hi, Violet. Hi. How old are you, Violet?

I'm eight. Can I ask you, Violet, should I hide my partner's engagement ring to play a trick on her, or should I not do that? Yeah. Yeah, what? Yeah, do it or yeah, don't do it? Yeah, do it. I like you, Violet. You've got a good sense of humour.

Very good. Hey, Violet, what's your mum's birthday? 24th of January, 1985. You crushed that, Violet. Good job. Your mum was 16 in 2001. And on that day, this was number one. You reckon, mum?

Love biscuit. And Roland. I love it, do you like it, Violet? Do you like it, Violet? And limb biscuits gets an acquired taste Can I tell you something? Yeah, of course you can't. Violet, what do you want to tell us?

We're also a first-time caller. Wow. Just say, listening to you, Violet, I can hear how you're so much like your mom and it's the cutest thing ever. You're both spunky as. Thank you. You're welcome.

Wait there, ladies. We need to choose between Camillionaire, Justin Timberlake and Limp Biscuit. I want to pick Limp Biscuit just so we'd talk to Violet again. My only issue with the Limp Biscuit one is ZM has a weird version loaded. Oh. So we'd have to get Claudia to play it off Spotify. Oh, that would not be censored.

That is risky, nah. Like any Limp Bizkit fan will tell you this is not... This is not the right version. This is a remix. Oh, no, this isn't it. Oh, we got to play Rydiderman. Which means we've got to go to Camillion here, don't we? Yeah.

I just know. That we would have done Limpus. Yes, Violet and her mum. We would have went with you guys. But also, Riden's a great one too. Hannah, you've just won birthday banger. Well done. Shout out to my partner and my kids listening.

Shout out. Shout out. What's their names? Morgan, Harlow and Scarlet. And my girls, 10 and 8, know the lyrics to the song. Hell yeah. Really? Let's go.

That was Camillianers Riding Dirty It was number one in 2007 Banga! Banga! The ZDM Podcast Network. I've got some interesting stats on dating and relationship behaviour, if you know what I mean. Okay. It's been published by the podcaster Chris Williamson, who you will know if you see him.

Is he a comedian? No, he's not a comedian. No? He's a bit diary of a CEO. Okay. One of those kind of... He's in that podcast space. He's this guy.

You recognise this guy? Yes. He's very famous. He has like... like 3 million followers on Instagram, one of the biggest podcasts in the world. But he has published these stats. I'm just letting you know where the stats come from. Okay.

Okay. So we'll start with Gen Z dating first. There's a stat here that says 67% of Gen Zs would prioritize a good night sleep over indoor gardening. Really? Just check that one with our resident Gen Z. Wait, is this people in a long-term relationship or like? Like singles? It doesn't specify.

Gen Z's... Because I feel like that's really different. 67% of Gen Zeds. The young ones, the ones who shouldn't be as tired as the rest of us, would prioritise a good night's sleep over doing it. Ella? Can confirm. Wow.

Yeah, but she's been in a relationship for age. She's married. And I also love sleep. So much. Here we go. One in eight... Lady Boner over sleep. One in eight 26 year olds.

One in every eight 26 year olds. Okay. is a virgin. In 2006. Okay. In 2026. Obviously there's nothing wrong with that. No, nothing wrong with that.

24% of Gen Zs had no indoor gardening in the past year, which is double the rate of what it was in 2010. Really? So a quarter of Gen Zs haven't done it in the last 12 months. Damn, go off. No, no going off. No, opposite of going off. Amongst men between the ages of 18 and 24,

Around one in three report no indoor gardening in the last year. Even the boys. More so the boys. More so the boys. 37% of adults are doing it weekly, 37% in 26. Okay. It's down from 55% in 1990. Or are people just being honest now?

I don't know. You know? 1990, no streaming. No Netflix, no phones. There was just what was on TV. TV and your book. You know? Those are the options.

Oh, well, that's our show done for the night. Should we go to bed? Yeah, exactly. That was it. 55% of people were doing it weekly in 1990. 37% of people now. 37% of Gen Z had no indoor gardening in the last month compared to 19% of millennials. Oh, so our numbers are way down.

No, millennials are better. I'm confused. We're getting it. Yeah, 19% of millennials, only 19% of millennials. only 19% of millennials have had no action in the last week. Right, whereas the Gen Zs 37% and they should be the promiscuous ones. Yeah, but...

They should be out there doing it. I would say, though, a lot more millennials are probably in long-term relationships or marriages. Oh, okay. So you think they've got more access to it? Well, they would, yeah. Theoretically. Theoretically.

And yet this stat, 48% of married couples have not done it in the past month. Half of... The last month. Yeah. In 2004, 78% of millennials said that their friends commonly had one-night stands

in 2004. How many? 78%. That's quite a few. Yeah. Just 23% of Gen Zs say the same thing, 20 years later. Yeah, the Gen Zeds are after an emotional connection

from what I've heard. So in our prime, millennials, 78% of us were having one-night stands. Gen Zs currently in their prime? Only 23% of them are having one-night stands. Yeah, but that's a Gen Z choice, isn't it? Yes. Yes, absolutely.

Yeah, I feel like the millennials and the Gen Z is there's so many huge differences. Yes. And I blame COVID. Oh, okay. I think there's a lot to do with that big stint of COVID in the, like, you know. Gen Zs drink less than millennials? Yeah, we've got different hobbies. Because they couldn't leave the house.

You bonk less than millennials? Yeah, I think we're just a little bit more awkward. COVID did that to us. And you know what? This is what I mean. I blame COVID. Yeah. And we're all on our phones.

I blame phones and social media. That too? It could be a combination of both. You know? But what did COVID do? It forced you onto your phone and social media. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Really did.

And then you're looking at like people. So it's like a negative thing. I mean, oh my God. I truly believe, I truly believe I became at least 15 20% more socially awkward after the COVID period.
