The ZM Podcast Network. Hello everybody, welcome to the show and welcome back to the country, the Italian version of Brie Thomasel. Ah, buongiorno, come stai? That's it, that's about it. What did you bring us from Europe? Um, I bought you... Two weeks in Europe, what did you bring us from Europe? I bought you a good... Two weeks in Europe. What did you bring us?

A good attitude. Trip around the world. So much to see, so much to do, so much to eat, so much cool clothing and souvenirs. What did you bring us? A great attitude and good vibes. Oh, come on, guys. So nothing?

No, I didn't bring you anything. Nothing? Nothing. I bought Cam Mansell something cool. You did not. I did. Did you buy a gift for Cam Mansell? Cam Mansell. What? Did what? He made me three travel packs with all

these cute things that I needed like with like masks and earplugs and a disposable camera like all these real thoughtful things. What did you guys give me for my trip? We've got a give to get. Is that the deal? Yeah, pretty much.

Right, okay. We can give you shit. Do you want to see what I got him? It's real funny. Yeah. Okay. Is it a statue of Michelangelo's David with its... Ah, it kind of is.

Is that... Is that David? Yeah, that's statue of David giving the forks. He's doing a rude gesture around his mouth. Let's just say that. He is. Guys, I can't be distracted right now. I'm trying to buy tickets to the Warriors.

Oh, is that just gone on sale? I'm in. I'm in. I'm in, guys. Oh, let's get moving there. Also, also, no, wait, I've got heaps of stuff to say. I've been away for two weeks. I was telling you, because I mean,

I was flying back at the right time, because I watched the All Blacks, I watched the Warriors. I mean, not the best time because... No. Not the best result. No. But as I was watching the All Blacks game on my Emirates flight, an ex-All Black sitting right next to me.

Which one? Big time, ex-All Black, Conrad Smith. Was he on the plane at the same time as the game? Yeah. Why wasn't he at the game? I don't know. Everybody else was at the game. I don't know what he was up to.

Dan and Richie were at the game. And after this 16-hour flight, this guy comes over to Paul Conrad and goes, can I get a photo? At the end of the flight? At the end of the flight. Oh, gross. No, I don't even want my passport photo taken after those long flights. Can you imagine the ugly passport photos that are sitting somewhere in a database? But anyway, I had to sit next to Paul Conrad as the All Blacks unfortunately lost.

But hey, that's just the first game. I feel like it's the only ways up. Yeah, we've got a good chance against Namibia. Let's get into Tradie vs Lady. We've got 50 bucks cash up for grabs. Thanks to KFC if you want to play with us. The ladies are still in the lead, Bree. No change there.

The Tradies have come back a bit though. A smidge. We'll crack into it next. It's tradie versus lady. I've missed this raw competition between the tradies and the ladies. Good to see the ladies still in front on 81, haven't lost their lead. The tradies on 74. Slight catch-up last week.

Let's go to our lady first. She's calling from Hawke's Bay. She's 25, and she thought lukewarm was actually pronounced nukewarm. And she's willing to admit that on the radio. Welcome to the show, Tiana. Hi, Tiana. I feel like nukewarm would be very, very hot. Very, very hot.

Yeah, not mildly hot. I get it, though. What the hell is lukewarm? Doesn't make a lot of sense, does it, Tiana? Yeah, who gets named after Luke? Who's Luke? Yeah, why does Luke get a shout out? Why is he so mildly warm?

Yeah. Yeah. No, we get it. We're on your side. You're taking on our tradie today, a lady tradie from Upper Hutt. She's 35. She's a bridal hair specialist, and she works in her partner's auto glass shop. Welcome to the show, Rachel.

Well, hello there, Rachel. You just seem to really do it all. Well, I try. A lot of bloody skills Rachel has. Let's see if she's got the skills to take out this game this afternoon. Rach, your buzzer is tradie afternoon. Rach, your buzzer is tradie. Tiana, your buzzer is lady. Nice and

clear on those buzzers for us, please. And the first one to three correct answers gets 50 bucks cash from KFC. Good luck. Alright, ladies, here we go. Question number one. In the Pixar movie Cars, Lightning McQueen befriends a tow truck. What was the tow truck's name? Yes, Tiana? Tiana. Oh, lady.

Yes, Tiana. Tow mater. I'm going to say that's correct. Yeah, nice work. It was. We would have accepted just mater as well. Yeah, right. One to the ladies.

Question number two. The rumour mill is in overdrive that there is a second song on the Olivia Rodrigo album, which was about which female mega pop star? Is it Taylor Swift or Katy Perry? Katy? Yes, Rachel. Taylor Swift? Nice work, Rachel. Rumour is they hate each other.

Yeah, that is the rumour that they're trying to push, isn't it? Question number three, we are one apiece. Ladies, buzz in when you can tell me who sings this song. Who sings it? Give you a hint Kiwi band They're a project Tiana Rachel just in there I believe

Drax Project Yeah, well done Nice work Rachel That is correct Drax Project Two to the trad done. Nice work, Rachel. That is correct. Drax Project. Two to the tradies, one to the ladies. Question number four.

Who did the All Blacks suffer their first ever World Cup pool match loss to over the weekend? Oh, the tradies? Yes, Rachel. France. France.

She's got it. That's the win. She's a lady. Oh, no, but you're the tradie. Oh, she's a lady. Yeah, Rachel's the tradie and she won, right? Rachel's the tradie. There it is. She's a woman of many talents and you can add that to the list, Rachel,

and $50 to your bank account. Awesome. Thanks so much. Nice work. That's why I'd be no good in a menage a trois. I get all confused when there's more than one lady. You're like, wait, who are you? What's going on? Wait, there's more than one of you? What?

I'm back from a two week European getaway. Yeah, babes. Oh my God. I've never been to Europe before, so just be happy for me for a second because I'm not one of those people that's been a million times. It was my first time and it was everything. It was everything

and more. It was summertime. It was hot. It was just amazing. Yeah, alright. Stop going on about it. I did spend the first week of my trip on a romantic getaway with my parents as they were redoing their honeymoon trip. Third wheeling. Yeah. Which was amazing, to be honest.

Like my dad's Italian. We got to go to where my nonna and nunnu are from, where they migrated over from. And I got to see where my nonna grew up and meet relatives that I've never met before. You got to see where your nose came from. I did. And my mustache. It was amazing. It was such an awesome trip. up and meet relatives that I've never met before. You got to see where your nose came from. I did, and my moustache. It was amazing. It was such an awesome trip, and I got to see all these things that I've heard about

my entire life, all these landmarks and all these tourist attractions that you hear so much about, and Europe and the UK, and it just has so many of those things. Yeah, everywhere you go over there, I've only been once as well, I went on my honeymoon. You're right, every corner you turn is some historical artefact and you actually get fatigued of it after a while. You go, oh, God, another plaque. Yeah.

Oh, my God, another thousand-year-old building. Another huge bronze statue of some soldier on a horse. At the start, it's all incredible and And by the end, it's overwhelming. Yeah. Like, it's just so weird to see these things that you've heard and talked about so much throughout your whole life. Like, I felt so special that I got to see it all. Especially when you live somewhere like Auckland,

where our landmark is the Sky Tower. And that was built in 1995. It's pretty old. Pretty old. Pretty old. Some of my favourite things, I just want to go through some of my favourite things because I just want to preface this with saying that I wasn't disappointed

with pretty much anything. Like everything that I saw, loved. Except for one thing. I was going to say I felt it was a bad TripAdvisor review coming. Except for one tourist attraction that underwhelmed me quite a lot. But let's go through all the ones that I thought were just amazing. Okay.

The Statue of David is incredible. I went to see the real one, the legit one, because there's quite a few. They've got replicas because there's too many tourists. Yeah, there's quite a few. They have to spread them out. Because originally it was outside and then it was too precious, so they brought it inside to a museum. Just amazing.

So much bigger than what you think. Not that part, just the statue in general. It's quite small, right? Yeah, but the statue itself is quite impressive. Like it's huge. Amazing. Loved that. Venice, I just thought, was the most unique city I've ever seen

in my whole life. Like pretty amazing. Like very overwhelming. I was happy to get city I've ever seen in my whole life. Like, pretty amazing. Like, very overwhelming. I was happy to get out of there, but loved seeing it. Yep. What else did I see? Big Ben has just had a full renovation makeover. When we went, Big Ben was covered in scaffolding.

I was so ripped off. Full renovation. It's like gold now. It's got blue on it. Amazing. It's a digital clock now, eh? Yeah. Yeah, it's full digital.

It's got the temperature. It fl blue on it. Amazing. It's a digital clock now, eh? Yeah. Yeah, it's full digital. It's got the temperature. It flicks between the time and the temperature. I also found out that the London Bridge isn't the London Bridge that you think it is. No. It's called something, the Tower Bridge. Tower Bridge is the one everyone thinks is London Bridge. Is what you think the London Bridge is.

Yeah. But amazing. Loved it. Well, London Bridge is falling down. Literally. As the song goes. Falling down. Falling down. Yeah. But here it is.

Oh, okay. I have to say it. The most underwhelming tourist attraction that I saw. Buckingham Palace. Oh. Really? Boo. Thumbs down from me.

I had to ask my partner a couple of times, are you sure this is it? Are you sure? Yeah. So underwhelming to me. Really? Small. No.

Kind of dreary. Not small at all. I mean, they call it a palace for a reason. I saw palaces in Italy bigger than that. You did not. I did. I think you were expecting a castle, and what you got was a palace. I reckon that's the issue.

I think you thought king and queen castle, and then you said it's a palace. I mean, give me the Colosseum any day. I saw the Colosseum. You see the Colosseum, and then you go to- They say there's parts of the Buckingham Palace that are in similar states of disrepair to the Coliseum. You see the Coliseum and then you go to... Well, they say there's parts of the Buckingham Palace that are in similar states of disrepair to the Coliseum, to be honest. It's pretty munted inside. Apparently they need,

they're just about to undertake a full massive renovation of Buckingham Palace because it needs it. They're getting Peter Wolfkamp in there. Season 8 of The Block, New Zealand. They're renovating Buckingham Palace. Did you go to Buckingham Palace and think, wow, this is impressive? Yes, I did, because you're standing there, the mall is behind you,

and that statue, which is directly outside Buckingham Palace, that you, hey, you didn't even let me finish the fact. The statue that you stand on. The one where the Jubilee is. Yeah, and you look at the palace. Yeah. That statue was donated by New Zealand. Was it?

Yeah. See, you didn't even look, you didn't even read about what you were looking at. Oh, but I kind of, I saw it. It's all right. If you were underwhelmed, you were underwhelmed. That's fine. I was underwhelmed by it.

How many stars? How many stars? I'd give. How many stars? How many stars for Buckingham Palace? Three at a push. Three stars. Everything else, five.

Okay. Everything else blew me out of the water except for Buckingham Palace. You and I have a shared review of a New Zealand tourist attraction like that. What was that? Not a palace, not a building. The most underwhelming tourist attraction you and I visited. And I'm sorry to the people that run

this tourist attraction, but it should be on the sign. Oh no. The Moraki Boulders. Oh yeah. Just rocks. Not that interesting. Just rocks. Most of them are broken or under the sign. Oh no. The Moraki Boulders. Oh yeah. Just rocks. Not that interesting. Just rocks. Most of them are broken or under the sand. What was our review? If you've seen a rock,

you've seen it all. One star. Oh, Andrew Dahl's at him. Let's do it. We've done it before. Let's do it again. What's the most underwhelming tourist attraction? Let somebody know so they can reroute their tour when they're going on holiday. And you're allowed to have your opinion. We want to hear it.

0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. What is it? What got three or less stars? Two stars? One star? What did you visit and you were like, eh? It's all right. Bree and Clint.

We'll get you on next with ZM. Bree and Clint. Bree's published a very bad review of Buckingham Palace. I haven't. I would never. Saying avoid at all costs. I think my bar was so high because everything else I'd been to on the trip so far, I was absolutely blown away by.

Like Statue of David, Coliseum, like just everything blew me away. There's no Vatican, I'll give you that. Yeah. But I get to Buckingham Palace and I say to my partner, are you sure this is it? Maybe they needed to water blast it. Maybe it's had a rough winter. Maybe it just, you know.

Well, the Queen's been dead for a year now. Maybe she was in charge of maintenance. I don't know. I just, I could have, you know, given it a miss. Maybe she was the magic spark. I don't know. So we're asking you, what's the most overrated tourist attraction? Underwhelming tourist attraction that you've ever been to? Hannah's here. Hi, Hannah. Hi, Hannah. Hiya. I've heard this one before and it shocked me when I heard it. Many times. But I can believe it. According to you,

what is it? The Mona Lisa. The Mona Lisa. Hannah, correct me if I'm wrong. I've heard from people, because I've never seen it, that it's really small. It's tiny. And I've heard that so many people are trying to take a photo of the Mona Lisa with this stupid phone that you can't even get that close to it. No, you can't.

Like, the crowd is completely blocking it. And, like, I'm not a tall gal, you know? I couldn't really see it. It's small. Hannah, how long did you line up for to then be super underwhelmed? To be honest, this was years ago, and I was on a high school trip, so I actually don't really recall the line, but I'll tell you that, like, I left right away.

We were given, like, free time after, and I was like, Kate, bye, that's it, I'm out. You're like, I've seen it. The most famous painting in the history of the world after and I was like, Kate, bye. That's it. I'm out. You're like, I've seen it. The most famous painting in the history of the world and you're like, okay, see ya. Hannah. I know. I'd be exactly like you. If I lined up for four hours and I turned up and that was it, I'd be ropeable.

Some of these are shocking that are coming in. Someone said the Eiffel Tower is underwhelming. The Eiffel Tower? No, no, no, no. Remember when ex-producer of the show, Producer Ben, said the Coliseum was underwhelming? He said Coliseum. Take or leave it.

Are you joking, Producer Ben? The Coliseum. Holly, what's the most underwhelming tourist attraction according to you? According to me, Mount Rushmore. Oh, my goodness. I think the road leading up to Mount Rushmore is way more exciting than the actual monument.

Is it not that impressive? No, and it's super far away, and then you're walking through these tunnels that have this monotone narrative as you go through. You just want to go to sleep. And I don't know any of the presidents on there. They're not my president. That's so interesting to me.

I've never heard someone review Mount Rushmore before. Yeah. It's like a two-hour drive from the Black Hills in South Dakota. So it's smack bang in the middle of the States, and it's a very niche thing, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. It is pretty niche. Holly's review, not worth going out of your way. Someone texted and said, the Wanaka tree, what a piece of shit.

I love the Wanaka tree, what a piece of shit. I love the Wanaka tree. I saw the Wanaka tree, and I tried to get a good photo of the Wanaka tree, and I was like, how are these people doing it? How are they getting this photo? Let's be real. Wanaka has cashed in on that tree. They really

have. And I mean, good on them, I say. With their tripod, trying to get the shot, which already exists, by the way. The shot already exists. You're not going to get it. Someone else said, I saw the Sistine Chapel and as we were leaving I heard an American tourist say, is this it? I could have stayed on the boat and seen this on the internet. I could have slapped her. Didn't that person look at the ceiling? That's the impressive bit. They probably didn't stay long enough.

Someone else said, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, super cool, but also dirty and full of strange people. Full of the weirdest people. It is real dirty. Remember when we went? You're either getting accosted by a discount Spider-Man

or like... The Joker 2.0's there running amok. Wendy's here. Wendy, what's the most underwhelming tourist attraction in the world, according to you? The Leaning Tower of Pisa. Is it not good? No.

It's really pathetic, and the town is not nice. That's what I heard. The tower is the only thing to see or do in Pisa, and once you've seen the tower, that's it. Yeah, you get out of there because it feels quite dodgy. I have heard this, Wendy. I've heard that the tower quite small

and it's got a bit of a lean on it. As far as buildings go, it's a bit of a flop. And everyone's trying to take their photo to make it look like they're holding it up. Oh, that's a classic. I've never seen that photo before. Nara, can you spot on Wendy? Did you know it's hollow, the tower?

Is it? Yeah. There's nothing inside it. So you can't walk up it? No. Well, it's on a lean. They don't want you to walk up it. Or they've taken the inside out.

They've taken everything out of it. Oh. So she's just a husk. She's a husk of a building. All right, Wendy, thank you for your honesty. We appreciate it. Most underwhelming tourist attraction. Someone's texting Invercargill.

Oh. Oh, come on. They've got that thing. They've got the... The what? The world's fastest Indian motorbike. That's pretty cool. That's there.

That's actually really cool. Someone's texted through and they said, I'm with you, Bree. I used to run past Buckingham Palace every day for weeks, not realising it was actually Buckingham Palace as it didn't have the wow factor. It wasn't until someone told me. That's how I felt.

It was so underwhelming. Do your research. So underwhelming. Obviously, I've just gotten back from a Europe holiday. That's right, guys. Living my hot girl summer. How come you didn't come back with a tan like all the other girls from ZM that went to Europe?

Because I put sunscreen on. Ah, that'll do it. Yeah, I'm in that age range where they say I'm at risk of skin cancer, so I put sun cream on now. You didn't bake yourself to a crisp on sale Croatia? No, no, no, not me. Never put your face in the sun.. Never put your face in the sun. Don't put your face in the sun.

That is my tip for everyone living their hot boy and girl summers. But it's interesting to me because obviously yesterday I spent, I did seven hours was my first flight. And then the flight from Dubai to Auckland was 16 hours. So I've spent a lot of time on a plane. and then the flight from Dubai to Auckland was 16 hours. So I've spent a lot of time on a plane. You know there's nothing better than spending that long on a plane that can make you grateful for the little things? Right.

Like yesterday, going for a walk with my dogs, I was like, oh, I'm just so grateful to be out here in the sun walking these dogs. See, I'd love to be on a 17-hour flight. Just watch some TV and then I'd sleep for about 10 hours. Those people who complain sleep, not an issue. Oh, that's true. You're blessed. There's a story doing the rounds about this New Zealand couple.

Have you read it? No. So they were on a holiday and they got a flight on Singapore Airlines from Paris and they forked out for the premium economy seats. Okay. So the ones that are just up from the economy. So not like your business class or your first class, but just that little bit better. Yep. And they're asking for a full refund. refund. They said they weren't happy. Why? Because they said the 13 hour flight they were stuck next to, and this is their words, a slobbering, farting and a whiny dog. Oh, an actual dog. Yes. I thought the dog had to go down and under the plane.

Not if it's a service dog. Oh. Also, some airlines in Europe, you can just take your dog on board. Really? Depending. Yeah. Some airlines allow your dogs on board. But this particular one was a service dog.

And this couple said it ruined the whole experience for us. We had to sit next to this disgusting animal that was slobbering and panting and farting up a storm. Yeah. I could handle all the other bits except for the dog farts. If I'd paid for a nice airline seat and I sat next to a farty dog, I wouldn't be happy about it. I'll be honest.

There's always someone who's farting on a flight. I'm not joking. This flight that I just took home, there was someone who was sitting in my vicinity and it wasn't me dropping their guts like every five minutes. I've talked to someone who works at the airport and they stand on the air bridge on the other side when the door opens after those 17-hour flights and they said the smell that comes out of that plane, because you can't really smell

it. You're conditioned to it. Yeah, that's what happens. You know, when you've been in there and it's slowly come on bit by bit, you can't smell it. A hundred percent. It's like if you live in Rotorua, you can't smell it. You become accustomed to it.

You're used to it. Yeah. The person said they're not used to it. They opened the door. It's like opening a can of farts. It would be because the air is just getting recycled in there. It's disgusting, isn't it? So do they get a refund

because they had to stick to the dog? So, which I think there was a lot of back and forth because they complained and the flight attendant said, hey, we can offer you, you know, the first row of seats in economy, but it's obviously not premium economy. That's the only place we can move you, you know, the first row of seats in economy, but it's obviously not premium

economy. That's the only place we can move you. And at first, the couple said, no, we don't want to be moved back there because we paid for our premium economy. Yeah. And then later in the flight, apparently the farts got so bad that they did end up moving back to those seats. I do believe that they did contact Singapore Airlines because they did complain and said, you know,

we paid for premium economy. We weren't informed that there'd be a dog sitting near us. And Singapore Airways did come back and say, we can offer you a $200 travel voucher for each of you. Oh, yeah. Better than nothing. Which I don't think would cover the cost. No, but yeah.

Yeah, better than nothing. But I would be so stoked, can I say, if I got sat next to a service dog. You would. I'd be so happy. But I can also understand if you're not a dog person, you do want to know if there's a dog sitting next to you. That's a unique complaint. I've not heard about someone complaining about dog farts before.

It'd be horrendous. I've seen a picture of this dog. What sort of dog was it? It looks like a bulldog cross. Oh, yuck. And they would drop the worst farts. Yuck, those dogs look really unhealthy. We want to know, oh800DARLS.M,

are you the sort of person who would ask for a refund? Because not everybody is. Not everybody is willing to go out there. A lot of people do not ask or complain, do they? Which person are you? I ask for the refund. Do you? Yeah.

Because I actually, I was trying to think about this before. I write an email with all the facts. I get it all down in one email. Do you? Yeah. What do you think I am? You're a grin and bear it. I am. Yeah. Which is wrong. Unless I'm in a mood and it's real bad. Yeah. If it's really bad, then maybe. I'll write a strongly worded email just with the facts,

no emotion, just the facts. Do you ask, can I, from someone who doesn't ask for a refund, when you write the email, do you ask for a refund? No, I leave it in their court to say what they would suggest. So you leave it open, do you?

You're like, no, I want them to come to me. We want to know on the $800. What did you ask for a refund on and did you get it?

And was it substantial and was it like a big deal? Are you a refunder? Are you like me? Do you go in there and ask for what you think you deserve? I think Kiwis traditionally are kind of like, oh, yeah, okay. Yeah, no worries.

Yeah, don't worry about it. It's okay. Yeah. There was a pube in my cheeseburger, but that's okay. Not this Kiwi couple. But their names were, it's so funny. So they were on a trip going to Paris, I believe. Jill and Warren Press from New Zealand have asked for a full refund of their 13-hour flight

where they've forked out the money to go premium economy because they thought let's treat ourselves, we're on holiday. And they got sat next to a slobbering, farting, whiny service dog. That's such a mean way to talk about the dog. That dog has feelings, okay? And that dog used all of his savings to pay for a premium economy ticket. He has every right to sit there. I think he was sitting on the floor is where he was.

They got a $200 credit. Doesn't make up for it. I also can kind of see the other side where I'm kind of like, it's a dog. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's the premium bit. If it was an economy, you go, that's what it is. You reckon if they were in just normal old cattle class economy,

then you can't really complain. Yeah. It's because they forked out the money. It's because they paid for the special bit. They paid for the special bit. When did you ask for a refund? Someone said, I asked my husband's parents for a refund and or a replacement. They said, no, not negotiable. As is where

it is. Someone else said, I literally asked for a refund today. I ordered Uber Eats and I ordered a hot chocolate. Instead, I got given a mocha. So I asked for a refund for getting my order wrong. Fair enough. What's the difference between a mocha and a hot chocolate? A mocha, so I asked for a refund for getting my order wrong. Yeah, well, fair enough. They gave you... Wait, what's the difference between a mocha and a hot chocolate?

A mocha's got coffee in it. Oh, yeah, no, no. Which is different. It is different. Yeah. But if you can't handle caffeine, what if you're, like, pinging off the walls? Well, that's the thing. Let's talk to some people.

Sarah's on the phone. Hello, Sarah. Hi. Did you ask for a refund? What was it for? Oh, don't. I'm terrible for asking for a refund if I think it's true. So me and my sister went on holiday to Ibiza

and we booked through kind of a budget holiday company, Jet2. And on the way home at the airport, as you can imagine, Ibiza airport's quite painful for everyone involved. Everyone's hungover. Yeah. There's like just dead people involved. Everyone's hungover. Yeah. There's, like, just dead people everywhere. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Literally zombies just walking around.

Do you guys sell serotonin? Yeah, I know they need to. So we're cashing on that. But, yeah, so our flight was, I think it was three and a half hours delayed, and obviously me being one of the zombies, I was like, oh, I'm sure there's some rules about this. So I looked it up and it said, yep, you can get a refund for your flight if it's over three and a half, or I think over three hours delayed. So I put in a claim there and then while I was stuck at the airport.

And then it took months and months. And I was like, we're not going to get anything. And then me and my sister each got £500 refund. Out of the blue. Yeah, from me complaining. And we both got checks sent through to us. And our whole holiday didn't even cost that much. So we basically got a free holiday. Brilliant. What a win!

Yeah, see? The power of complaining. It pays to be a whinger. Just use the facts. Just go on with the facts. You never know what you'll get. Louise is here. Hi, Louise. Hi, Louise. Hi. Are you one of those whingy refund requesters as well? I'm not unless

I have had a bad day and I had a really bad day once. What happened, Louise? It was just one of those days and I was just running late and we decided on making pizza. So I grabbed a pre-made bag of, like, mozzarella cheese, and I was putting it on the pizza, and I was halfway done.

And then I realized there was, like, a fistful of mold in the bag. Yep. Yes, and because I had such a bad day, I, like, picked all of the cheese off the pizza that I just put on there and marched my way down to New World and went straight to the counter and was like, excuse me, I would like a refund. No receipt.

No receipt. I'm not going to even take a receipt. I don't need to. Exactly. No, no. Look at this mold. And the guy was like, oh yeah, that's gross. Can I check? Did you demand a refund for all the pizza ingredients because the pizza was ruined or just the mozzarella?

I should have done that, but I just went for the mozzarella. Can you? Anyway, anyway. Louise, did you just hear what Clint Roberts just said? He's like, you are the whinger expert level. I wouldn't even have thought to ask for the whole pizza. I wouldn't. Yeah.

But you make a good point. Yeah, we need to get on his level. Yeah, give me my pizza sauce back. Give me my bloody jar of Legos pizza sauce for free as well. It gets better though. So I go to him and I say I want a replacement. He gives me a replacement bag. I'm just about to turn around, and I say,

actually, can you open this bag right here, right now? Oh, no. Because I don't want to come back. He opened it, and boom, mold in there. I got my full refund. Left out of receipt. I was so proud. Wow.

Look how passionate you are, Louise. It makes me passionate. It was the best day of my life. I loved it. Louise, do you think you're a Karen? Do you think you're a Karen now? She's not. In that moment, I definitely was.

You demanded to speak to the manager. Yeah, it's a rush. Yeah. It's a rush. You just need the haircut now. Yeah. Louise is like, I will get that bloody haircut and I will get it refunded.

Thanks, Louise. Thanks, Louise. get that bloody haircut and I will get it refunded. Thanks, Louise. Thanks, Louise. Thank you. Are you watching Only Murders in the Building with Selena Gomez? I have not watched any TV for two weeks. Oh, you didn't have any downtime in the hotel to watch? Well, to be honest, in Italy, no TVs worked in the places we were staying. Yeah.

And then I just haven't had time. Well, that's a sign of a good holiday. And I'm excited, though, because I've got all of this good TV backed up. It's really good if you're looking for a TV show. Only Murders in the Building. It's on Disney+. How's Meryl Streep? She's very good.

Oh, well, I'm not surprised. Steve Martin, very good. Selena Gomez, good. Paul Rudd, very good. Why were you hesitant on Selena? Selena Gomez kind of just does one voice. She's kind of just like... Oh, I reckon she's awesome in it.

She's interesting. She's kind of just like... Cara Delevingne. Not this season. Could have taken it, leaving it. Selena Gomez is like, we've got to find the murderer. Guys, how could you not think about the podcast? We've got to work together to find the murderer.

Oh, my God. I think I found the murderer. It's got the same vibes as some of their music. Yeah, exactly right. Which is, like I said, good. It is. I love it. Welcome to Guess the Voice, where Brie and I and you try to guess the voice of famous people.

Teresa's going to play with us. Hey, Teresa. Hi, Teresa. Hi. Teresa or Teresa? Just Teresa. Okay, just Teresa. But you let me know if you want me to call you Teresa.

Teresa. You're on Team Bree, and Andy will be joining Team Clint. Kia ora, Andy. Kia ora. How are you? Andy or Andai? Andai. Andai.

Andai. It's Andai, Andai. Andai. Okay, you guys are on your respective teams. Bri and Clint, Claudia's going to run the game. Hello, Claudia. Hello, Claudia. Actually, it's Claudia.

I thought it was Claudia. Claudia. Yeah, close though. Hello, everyone. So this is Guess the Voice. Self-explanatory. I'm just going to make you guess. Did you just cut me off? I turned you off by accident.

Did you just cut her mic off? You had enough of me already. Sorry. Wow. Claudia is her name. Personal. We're going to guess the famous voice. Yeah, so I'm going to play a celebrity voice.

You just need to tell me who it is. There's always a theme, and I don't know if you saw what old mate Sharon Osbourne's been saying lately. What has she been saying? You kept up with her? Nah. She said Ashton Kutcher's the rudest celebrity in the world. Really? She says he's a dastardly little thing, and he's very

rude. Oh, Ashton Kutcher not getting a good rap in the press at the moment, is he? He's had a bad day. So I've taken a look back at other celebrities that have been deemed rude. Okay. Very rude. Okay. Yeah.

So Bree and Clint, you guys are going to go first. Just buzz in with your name if you can tell me who it is. Ready to go? Ready. Here you go. Who are these rude dudes? The songs are the... That's James Corden.

It is indeed. No, that was Gordon Ramsay. Same person. Glue that kind Gordon Ramsay. Same person. Glue that kind of hold it all together. But there's an intimacy that comes from that interview. It does sound like Gordon Ramsay. Which I think is an exhumanising... God, he copped it, didn't he, last year?

Yeah, he had a bad run. Lost his show. Oh, he quit. Yeah, sure. Teresa and Andy, you guys are ready to give this a go? Yep. All right, guys, when you're ready, buzz in with your name if you know. Real secure people add value to people.

Real secure people uplift people. Real secure people lead with love and humility. That's what we want. Who's that Rudy? His music was in the background while he was talking. Real secure people add value to people. Real secure people uplift people. Andy.

Andy, who's that? Nick Jonas? No, not Nick Jonas. Oh, that's a good guess though, Andy. It does sound like him. Teresa? No, I had no idea. Nah.

Alright, no points. Was that Justin Bieber? It was Justin Bieber. The Biebs. Remember when he spat on someone? Can I just say? Remember when he got that monkey and left it in Germany? Oh yeah.

Remember when he toilet papered someone's house? How rude. What is he... Remember when he went out with Selena Gomez? Oh, my God, full circle moment. What's happening with him at the moment? What is he wearing out in public at the moment, embarrassing his poor wife?

Yeah, his sweatpants and his hat outside of his hood. It's bizarre. Anyway. Okay, well, we're back to Brianne Clint here as your next rude celeb. It's bizarre. Anyway. Okay, well, we're back to Brie and Clint here as your next rude celeb. It's really awesome. It's so fantastic. I mean... Brie?

Brie. Oh! Debbie LaVada. Oh, no. I get to hear the rest of it. You know, look, I'm 36 now, and the story of Funny Girl spans throughout the course of many years. Oh, Clint? Clint.

Zooey Deschanel? No. Oh, I know who that is. Do you need a clue? Has she been told that she's rude? Oh, I feel like I know who that is. Who are you thinking of? It's really awesome.

It's so fantastic. I'm thinking of the girl from Forgetting Sarah Marshall. No, no. And the story of Funny Girl spans all three of the course of... Brie. Lea Michele. Yeah. Nice.

Of course. Two points to Team Brie. Andy and Teresa, you ready to go again? Yep. Come on, guys. Teresa, you could win it for the team right now.

Good luck. Here you go. Yeah, the director's a good friend of mine. We've been friends for a long time and we were getting dinner and he showed me the Chrysalis ad and I just thought it was hilarious.

I in no way thought... Teresa. Teresa, who's that? I'll have a punt. Is Selena Gomez? Oh, you're so close. You're very close. Andy? I can't get it either. Be in the movie. There was no movie. It was just the ad.

Is it Jennifer Lawrence? It's Jennifer Lawrence. I can't believe. Has she been told that she's rude? Apparently, she was really rude to fans for a bit, but I think it was more just that she was, like, awkward, and they were like, that's rude. Well, that's a win to Team Brianne Teresa. Congratulations.

There's 50 KFC chicken dollars coming your way, Teresa. Oh, awesome. Nice work, guys. That was hard. It was a hard round, this round. Nice work, guys. That was hard. It was a hard round, this round. Shouldn't have been. I think we... I don't think it was hard. I think we just weren't on our game. Bree and Clint.

You know the author Stephen King? The guy who writes all the thrillers and the horror... Very famous....stories and horror movies as well. He did The Shining. The Shining. What else? He came out with Pennywise the Clown for the movie It. He has given

an interview to Rolling Stone where he's revealed that his wife told him that she would leave him if he didn't stop listening to one particular song over and over and over and over. He's probably got ADD.

What does that mean? All of us ADHD people, we get onto a song and then just thrash it. Yeah. And we can't listen to anything else and then we move on to something else. Well, my toddlers must have ADHD then because they're obsessed with this exact same song. Oh, toddlers are different. The same as Stephen King. What?

Wait. The exact same song. Are they? Yeah. So the song that Stephen King's wife said she would leave him over if he didn't stop listening to is Mumbo No. 5. A little bit of Monica in my life. A little bit of Erica.

I mean, it is a straight fire banger. It doesn't fit. Stephen King, The Shining, horror movies, thrillers. I was thinking more Metallica or, you know, Slipknot. He told Rolling Stone, I had the dance mix. I loved the extended play. I used to listen to both sides of it. I think he had the cassette.

He said one of them that I was listen to both sides of it. I think he had the cassette. He said one of them that I was listening to was just the instrumental. The instrumental would be fire. I played it until my wife said one more time and I'm going to effing leave you. I mean, fair enough.

I wonder how long for though. Yeah, to be honest. How long is too long? I've been listening to, I'm not kidding when I say I've been listening to Mambo No. 5 every day for the last nine months. You know, you know you have control.

Yeah, I do. Of the radio. I do, but it makes them really happy. I wouldn't care. I'd say you listen to what I'm listening to or we listen to nothing. To be honest, sometimes I do say, oh, the phone is flat. Oh, bugger. Oh, the radio's down. Lucy has told them, my wife told them,

that her phone doesn't get music. Yeah, good idea. So if I'm not in the car, they can't have any songs. I'd just say music has been banned. The government's banned it. There's a music lockdown. Yeah. I thought, much like Mumbo No. 5,

we could try and find the most annoying song in the world this afternoon. And I would like to... Put in a candidate? I'd like to put in a candidate for most annoying song in the world. I believe this could easily be it. Puff. Yeah. The pitch.

Is up there. The tone, the lyrics. The music video. Bloody terrible. It's like crack for children though. You know how much money these people have made from YouTube? Oh yeah. I read it. I read the statistic.

You find out what it is. Claudia, you give us a candidate for most annoying song in the world. I think I used to like this song, but this classic from Meghan Trainor, All About That Bass. Because you know I'm all aboutor, All About That Bass. But Claudia, it's about big booties. It's too repetitive for me.

Ella, what's the most annoying song in the world according to you? I hate the song We Like To Party from Venga Boys. Oh, banger! Yeah, for like one second according to you? I hate the song We Like to Party from Venga Boys. Oh, banger. Banger. One second and then you have to keep up this excitement

at the party you're at. This is on my kids' playlist too. And the other Venga Boys classic, We're Going to Eat Pizza. We're going to eat pizza. Love it. I have to throw in the ring

and this is probably because I work in radio and did when this song was so big, and it was so big for so long that I now just think it's so annoying, is this song from Pharrell. If you're in a bad mood, you try and listen to this song. If you're in a bad mood, Ph try and listen to this song. If you're in a bad mood, for our happy, we'll make it worse. Let's open the phone lines and poll the people on 0800DARLS.M. Can you add to our list?

What is the most annoying song in the whole world? Get your votes in. We'll put together the world's worst playlist. We'll play it for you next. Stick around. Brian Clint, he's Dean Lewis. And Julia Michaels on ZM. Brian Clint.

Stephen King's wife said she would leave him if he didn't stop listening to Mumbo No. 5. By Lee Bagger. It's a one-hit wonder. He would listen to this and the instrumental. Aww. It's a one-hit wonder. He would listen to this and the instrumental. A song that I think a lot of people think is annoying, but it hasn't got to me yet. Yeah. You remember the song Sweet But Psycho?

I quite like it. I get it, though. I do get it. I think for a similar reason, Harmony finds hers the most annoying song in the world. Harmony, what is it? It's La La La by Naughty Boy featuring Sam Smith. Is this the one that goes la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la? Yeah.

I get that, Harmony. I can see it. People didn't really know Sam Smith back then either. He wasn't super famous yet. Yeah, they featured. Hey. Yeah. And they're like, who's this high-pitched?

Yeah. Okay. Thank you, Harmony. We're trying to find the most annoying song in the world. Isla, what do you think it is? I think it's Barbie Girl. Barbie Girl. Barbie, let's Barbie Girl. Barbie Girl.

Isla, in the year of the Barbie movie. I've just heard it like a million times because of the Barbie trending and stuff. Yeah. I totally get it. As soon as you hear a song like a million times, it's just going to be annoying. Thanks, Isla. John's here. Hi, John.

Hi, John. How's it going? Good, thanks, John. Check one out there, Johnny Boy. What's the most annoying song of the world? Oh, here it is, buddy. XOF Crazy Frog. Crazy! Yes, Up The Waz. Up The Waz. Up The Waz. Doesn't get more annoying than

Crazy Frog. John, did you really want to vote or did you just want to get on the radio to do an Up the Wars? No, I was listening to the songs that you were putting out and they were pretty good songs, but the most annoying one for me was Crazy Frog. It's got to be Crazy Frog. Hey, John, what's the scoreline going to be this weekend for the Wars? Oh, they're going to take it out.

It's going to be 34-0. 34-0. Yes, Johnny. Yes, Johnny. Up the Waz. Are the contenders coming in for most annoying song in the world? Very repetitive from Eric Prince. Great music video, though.

I think an absolute banger of a song, too. I don't agree with this, but some people hate him. Coldplay Yellow. I can see it. I love that song, but I can see how it could be annoying. What else we got? Gangnam Style. Gangnam Style.

This has got to be This has got to be On the top 10 Most annoying songs Not for me Or love to Gangnam Style Let's do it I went to a Russian wedding once And no shit

They played Gangnam Style Six times And every time it came on The men at the wedding Took their shirts off And waved them around their head It did not get old See that doesn't disappoint anyone.

Never heard of her. You've never heard of her? Of course I have. You've never seen the Blurred Lines music video? Of course I have. I love when she does, I feel like she's, have you seen like some acting stuff she's done? No. Quite good.

She's a good actress. Yeah, quite good. Yeah, right. She has done a TikTok video explaining why she thinks getting divorced before you turn 30 is a life hack. Yeah, because you get it out of the way. She is divorced. She's not trying to get some like 29 year olds to leave their partner. She is divorced. She's not trying to get some 29-year-olds to leave their partner.

She is divorced. She got married in 2018. She had a kid with her husband. They're now divorced. She's ready for round two. She's ready for round two. Have a listen to this. This is Emma Ratajkowski trying to convince you to get a divorce.

As someone who got married at 26, has been separated for a little over a year, 32, I have to tell you, there is nothing better than being in your 30s, still being hot, maybe having a little bit of your own money, figuring out what you want to do with your life, everything. And having tried that married fantasy andising that it's maybe not all it's cracked up to be and then you've got your whole life still ahead of you. Well, I mean, there's hot and then there's Emma Redikowski hot. Yeah. She's like, you know, it's kind of like when you go to an Indian restaurant

and you ask for, you know, New Zealand hot versus Indian hot. Like she's Indian hot. That's how hot she is. You're so right. Her divorced, her post-marriage life is very different to the regular person's post-marriage life. She got divorced and then hooked up with Harry Styles. Other people get divorced.

That's right. There was photos of them kissing, remember? Yeah, there was. Other people get divorced and then they have to figure out how to use Tinder for the first time. But that's fun. Because they've been in a relationship since before dating apps existed. I feel like she's really onto something though

because if I meet someone who is in their 20s and when they say, oh, I'm divorced, I'm just interested. I'm like, whoa, when did you get married? What happened? Who cheated on who? You know Whereas later on Like if you're in your 50s

And they say I'm divorced Then we all know what happened What It didn't work out Ran its course It ran its course You had a midlife crisis Everyone got over each other

And they're like Oh I'm a bit over this You hooked up with your secretary It seems quite like You're right Getting divorced in your 40s or 50s So cliche Getting divorced in your lates or 50s, so cliche. Getting divorced in your late 20s, early 30s.

Quite unusual. Fun. Quite rebellious. Exciting. Different. Intriguing. So we want to ask you this afternoon, how young did you get divorced?

Yeah, did you do it in your 20s? Yeah. And now are you over it? In your 30s is like your 20s because now you're just living your best life. You're born again as a single person. See, that's the right way to do it, can I say? She says she got to experience married life. She had her child.

She did those things and now she can move on with her hot girl rest of her life. She's got so many hot girl years left too. She does. Like she's 32. We all do. Okay, we all have he so many hot girl years left too. She does. Like she's 32. We all do. Okay, we all have heaps of hot girl years left. Oh, mate, anyone in their 30s, you've got plenty of hot girl and hot boy years.

Share it with us this afternoon. 0800 dial ZM. We want to know how young did you get divorced? Bree and Clint. A friend of mine is literally on this same vibe at the moment. She was telling me that she'd been married for four years, I think, and been with her partner for six. Anyway, they separated and she got divorced when she was 31.

And she said, she goes, I'm so glad I did that early and now I'm living my absolute best life in my 30s where I don't have to wonder, I've already done it. Yeah. Been there, done that. And then whatever comes, comes. Yeah, and whatever happens, happens. So we want to know how young did you get divorced? Mel's caught up. G'day, Mel. Hi, Mel. Hi. What's your story? We're good. What happened with you? Married at 19, separated at 22 and I actually can't even remember when I divorced. Probably 24, 25. I didn't live my best life in those years.

Yes, Mel. You got married at 19? Yeah. Religious? No. Really? That's quite young. Do you look back on it now thinking,

what was I doing at 19 getting married? Or you stand by it? No, absolutely ridiculous. Yeah. Mel. What do you say to any 19 year olds listening who are thinking about proposing to their partner? Don't. Well, I mean you can propose, just don't get married until you're

like 30. Oh, yeah. Just make sure. Yeah, okay. Yeah, a lot messier once you get married. Thanks, Mel. Renee's here on 0800 dials at M. G'day, okay. Exactly. Yeah, a lot messier once you get married. Thanks, Mel. Renee's here on 0800 dials at M. G'day, Renee. Hi, Renee. Hi, how's it going?

Good, thanks. How young were you when you got divorced, Renee? So I was 28 when I got married, and then we separated like six months after the wedding, and I'm nearly 31 now, so all done and dusted. I've tried that. All done and dusted. Take that one off the list. Renee, how long were you

guys together before you got married? We were together like six years, I think. A long time. Why do you think the marriage only lasted six months? Honestly, I think a little bit of it has to do with, we just came out of lockdown, so we got married end of

2020. So I kind married end of 2020. Yeah. Okay. So I kind of feel like you've been in each other's pockets the whole time and you've kind of just got that one person who's been with you and then you're too deep in it to get out of it. Yeah, yeah. Lockdown wrecked a lot of marriages, I think. Did you realise you could travel again, Renee?

Yeah, that was what I wanted to do. And you're not too old to do a contiki. No. And those are way better when you're single. Yeah. Okay, thanks, Renee. We appreciate it. Someone texted and they said,

I got married when I was 21 and divorced when I was 21. Four months of marriage. Four months. In and out. At 21. Best types of marriages, in and out. In and out. At 21. Best types of marriages, in and out. In and out. Make it quick.

What about this one? Married at 18, divorced at 29, four kids and a house, two cars. Now I'm single and ready to mingle. 29. You're so young and you've done so much. And you've got your family. You've got your family. How good.

29. Wham, bam. Thank you, ma'am. You've got your family. How good. 29. Wham, bam. Thank you, ma'am. How about this for some perspective? Someone said, I was with my first husband quite young. We were together for 13 years and four kids later, but divorced at 29. Straight into a relationship after that. That lasted for 17 years.

Now I'm with my second husband and we've been together for 10 years and I could not be happier. Feel pretty good at 56, so hey, it's never too late. Life is for living. Absolutely. Are we giving motivational speeches to encourage people to get divorced? Is that what we're doing this afternoon? You know what? My outlook

on things, and everyone has their own views and opinions on things, but if you're not happy, and it's all about how you feel, Everyone has their own views and opinions on things. But if you're not happy. Yeah, that's what it is. You know, and it's all about how you feel. Correct. And deep down in your gut when you know you know. Yeah.

I think. Yeah. So don't waste any more time if you've known for a while. I mean, don't. But do it as a team because the other person's in the marriage too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they might be really happy. And it could be quite a shock if you're not happy.

So you have to be, you have to have some open lines of communication, right? I mean, don't just come out of the blue. Maybe have a conversation. Hey, I was driving home this afternoon and Brianne Clint said that getting divorced was cool. So. It was the push I needed. So here is your letter.

Welcome to Dubsville. We will be going to court. Brianne Clint. I want you to think right now in your head, how often are you washing your towel? Do you regularly wash your towel? You have to wash your towel? What?

Don't tell me yet. Okay. Okay, what your number is. I know you wash your towel. I know you're not a Josie Grossie. No, I definitely wash my towel. According to new research in the UK, a shocking one third of people surveyed put their towels in the wash just once every three months.

What? That is disgusting, as they say in the UK. They wash their bath towel four times a year. That is feral. They dry their body with it every day. Maybe twice a day if you're showering twice a year. That is feral. They dry their body with it every day. Maybe twice a day if you're showering twice a day. They push the dead skin off their body with it. They get the

little bits of sweat residue off and then they go, that's good for three months. Oh, that's so yuck. Almost two million people in the UK only wash their bathroom towel once a year. What is wrong with people? Once a year? What is wrong with people? Once a year? What is wrong with British people?

What is, nah, I bet around the world there's always some. There's always some that go, oh, that's fine. You know when. That is, to me, that is filth. That is disgusting. What would you rather? Find out someone you're dating washes their bath towel once a year or changes their sheets once a year?

I'd rather the sheets than the bath towel. The bath towel's way filthier. I'd rather the bath towel because I don't have to use the bath towel. Oh, wait, am I sleeping with this person? Yeah. Bath towel. I have to sleep in those sheets. You know, I don't have to touch their towel.

Can you imagine what that smells like, that bath towel? I have the number of what experts say how often you should be washing your bath towel. But before we do that, let's do a quick round the room, bit of honesty. Bree, how often are you washing your bath towel? I'd say it'd be once a week. Once a week. Claudia, how often are you washing your bath towel? Yeah, about the same once a week.

Once a week. Ella, how often is your mum washing your bath towel? Yeah, I just grab a new one every couple of showers. Do you really? Yeah. So, really? Yeah. And what do you do with the other one?

Put it in the wash. Really? Oh, you're the problem with this bloody environmental crisis. Well. We're in a drought. I'm once a week. According to the experts, Ella's right. You should be washing your bath towel after every

three uses. Two to three. Yeah. I knew that but I choose to ignore it. I'm not doing that. Nah. Too much. I feel like I've got a heated towel rail that bakes. You don't wash your legs though. You're gross. Yeah, I don't wash my legs. I dry my legs though. Yeah, you wash them with the towel. That's fine. That means he only uses the towel half of what we

use it. They say you should also replace your towel, That's fine. That means he only uses the towel half of what we use it. They say you should also replace your towel, like throw it out, every two years. What? Because bacteria and fungi can linger within them, even if you are putting them in the washing machine. It's like pillows. Yeah, pillows is two years. What about sheets then?

Sheets? Nah, sheets can go a bit longer, I'm pretty sure. I hope so. It depends if you sleep nude or not. If you sleep damp or not. Yeah. If you don't have a heated towel, Raoul. Who's sleeping damp? Someone who doesn't have a towel.

If you don't have a heated towel, Raoul, and you're washing your towel, like if your towel is still damp the next day when you're going to use it, and you're not washing that thing at least once a week. Oh, that happens to me sometimes. Can I just say, I literally, like I'm not joking, I judge people when I go over to me sometimes. Can I just say, I literally, like, I'm not joking, I judge people when I go over to their house, I always sniff their towel. Why?

Yeah, I always sniff their towel to get the vibe. What vibe? You sniff other people's towels? Yeah, 100%. Like, if I'm going over to someone's house and I use their bathroom and wash my hands and there's a towel there for me to dry my hands. I sniff it before I use it.

Brie, you've said a lot of weird things, but that takes the cake. I do. Because I'm not drying my hands on a towel that smells disgusting. What are you trying to find? Do you sniff their bath towel? Oh my God. The towel they put out for me to dry my hands on. The little hand towel?

Yeah. Or their bath towel? Oh, not the bath towel. The towel that I'm using to dry my hands on? The little hand towel? Yeah. Or their bath towel? Oh, not the bath towel. The towel that I'm using to dry my hands. You said what you said. Yeah, I stand by it. You never come into my house. There's people out there that go, yeah. You're not invited. Why do you not wash your hand towel?

Stop sniffing my delicates. Disgusting. Bree and Clint. Let's talk about some coupled statistics. I do love comparing my relationship Because comparing is the best way to move forward in a happy relationship Is that the saying? Yeah, comparing yourself to other relationships

Yeah Is the best way to do it You want to feel normal? Make sure you compare yourself to others Exactly This study, or survey rather has asked 2,000 couples who said they were in happy long-term relationships a bunch of different questions and how they felt.

So the first question that they asked was, and these are all couples that have been together for eight years or longer. Okay. Okay. The first question was, how often do you indoor garden? Oh, interesting. Quite interesting.

Interesting for the ones eight years and above. Yes. So every one of these couples has been together eight years or longer, and they said on average between the group, they indoor garden seven times a month. Oh, okay. On average. So more than twice a week?

Yeah. About twice a week. Let's just give or take twice a week. About twice a week with a bum week. No, not a bum week. That's not what I mean. Jesus. What's a bum week entail?

I don't think you know. It's not what I meant, okay? Wait. How many times do happy couples do that? I want to talk more about this bum week entail? I don't think you know. It's not what I meant, okay? How many times do happy couples do that? I want to talk more about this bum week. Because I'm not getting that in my relationship. Are you? Because it depends what kind of relationship you're in.

Are you getting bum week? No, I'll go on the record now for my wife's sake and say, no, there's no bum week. In my relationship, we get shark week, which isn't great. Oh, okay. It was a slip of the tongue. Oh, no, that's not good either. It was a faux pas.

Seven times a month, you say. A faux poo. Seven times a month, they say. Do you think that's high? I do, yeah. These people that have been together eight years or longer. Yeah, no wonder their relationship is happy. Well.

I'd be over the moon. They say that reaching this magic number helped build a successful and keep that successful relationship. Yeah. And it might be hard to achieve, but you've just got to keep pounding away at it. You've just got to keep pounding, just got to keep at it. Just trying to get to bum week as fast as you can. Bree and Clint.

That, Fano, is the end of the goddamn show. What's something that you could eat seven days a week, guys? What is something you could have seven days a week and you would not get sick of it? You've got such a dirty mind. I was not. Okay, I was thinking about Japanese food because it's so fresh. Your face was saying something else.

What about you, producers? Chocolate. Chocolate, yeah, nice. You could not, but nice. Oh, I could, and I do. I could eat chocolate seven days a week. If it was just a bit after dinner. A little bit, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

What did you say, Ella? Tea? Have you said beans? No, not tea. Tea. Are you, honestly, that's your answer. I love tea. Vegans, eh?

Oh, shush, I could eat. What's for dinner? Tea. I don't know. A loose leaf tea. Mmm, tea. Good tea. Treat yourself.

Scrummy. Am I scummy? I'm going to say potatoes. I, tea. Good technique. Treat yourself. Scrummy. Am I scummy? I'm going to say potatoes. I could eat them seven days a week. What a great answer. That's a perfect answer. Hands down. You know?

Yeah. I'm sad I didn't think of that. Potatoes is a great answer. No, but I mean tea was also a great answer. No, no. That sucks compared to potatoes. In the words of Samwise Ganges, boil them, mash them, stick them in a stew. You can do everything.

Potatoes. I can do the Irish accent. I'm half Irish. And I know I've done a lot of accents today, but we just won't focus on it. Have a great evening. Pick something. Japanese. Japanese.
