Thank you. Who's your favorite Seinfeld character? Oh Kramer. Kramer. Come on. ZM's Brie and Clint podcast. Sabrina Carpenter on ZM, it's her birthday today. Is it? Yeah she asked for 50 million followers for her birthday. Did she get it? When I checked she had 46 million. Should we check? Yeah let's
Starting point is 00:05:45 check. How old's Sabrina Carpenter turning today, Claude? I reckon she's 27. Do you? 27. Okay I'll go 28 just to be annoying. Okay. Sabrina Carpenter who asked for 50 million followers, which I checked out about six hours ago, has 46.9 million followers. So she's gained? Yeah she's gained about, she's gained a few hundred thousand. Wow. Since I've been, yeah. Pretty amazing. Yeah. Claude how old is she? She's born in 99 so she is 26. You guys aged her up? Aged her up. It's just because of the success. Yeah. You know? Yeah. But young people, turns out, can have success.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Just neither you or I, Clint, were those people. It just missed us. We were not those people. I read an interesting article today where they've done a study and have confirmed what they believe is the most emotionally triggering text message that you can send someone. Oh, okay. They've confirmed what it is based on this study.
Starting point is 00:06:52 I think I know what it is. Do we want to have a guess? Yeah. Producers, do you want to have a guess at what the most emotionally triggering text message you can send someone is? I feel like me and Clint are on the same page. I think it's, we need to talk. Oh, okay, I have a different one.
Starting point is 00:07:10 If I text you, we need to talk. Hey, we need to talk. I need to talk to you later. Yeah. Okay, that's my bet, Claudia. I was thinking just the letter K. Just the K. What, out of the blue? No, like if someone asks you a question and you just reply, K. Is K worse than okay? Yes. Yes. Lazy. K is kind of friendly. If I text you okay. No, but if I'm like, hey, here's a
Starting point is 00:07:33 massive paragraph. Do you mind doing this after work and like, you know, all this thought and then you just go, okay. It's so amazing to me when we have these conversations, like hearing your perspective on something and then knowing how I feel about something you know what I mean it's so interesting to hear how other people feel about it. I feel like it's gender specific too. 100% of it. I got in a huge fight with a girlfriend once because she texted me to say I love you yeah and I replied with ditto. Oh that is the worst replying. I know but I know that now but at the time but at the time I did love her and I thought I was being cutesy. Wait was it the first time she'd messaged you that? No not the first time. Right.
Starting point is 00:08:09 Oh and you were just messaging her back ditto constantly when she would say I love you. No just once. Oh just once. Just once. But we were doing long distance so there were all kinds of other pressures going on. A lot of other issues happening. Anyway Pixie what's the most triggering text? I reckon it's like the passive aggressive emoji smiley face. I hate when people use that like just the normal little smiley face, but it's not really a smile. I'm like, what have I done? What's wrong? Oh, I want to see what smiley face you're talking about. Yeah. You know the answer though, Bri. I do know the answer. One of you has got it right and it is just the letter K. Oh, I'm a genius.
Starting point is 00:08:48 It is the most negatively received response in digital conversations according to this study. They reckon that the single letter response conveys emotional distance, passive aggressiveness or disinterest? Well, we've got a new weapon in the war against Claudia, don't we? We know what to reply to her if we want to wind her up. Or you could just thumbs up react. Do you want to hear some of the other words, the other replies that were in the mix? So K, as a reply, beat out sure sure Or just even simply being left on read K is worse than being left on read apparently according to this study Wow leave me on read, please So do you look at it as not super passive aggressive?
Starting point is 00:09:37 No, I'm right with K after to me it says you're busy and you received my message. You've acknowledged it But yes, you want me just to thumbs up react to your text, don't you? More than okay. Don't not reply with a thumbs up, but just thumbs up react. Just so any of you know, if any of you ever do that to me,
Starting point is 00:09:55 I'll be fuming inside. Oh my God, this is so complex. I didn't realize any of that. I hate when someone just double taps my message. I just thought of another one that would send shivers down your spine. So these are not replies, but this is a message if I sent you, Hey, can I call you?
Starting point is 00:10:10 Oh, that's scary. Ah! Out of the blue. Hey, hey, comma, can I call you? Hey, are you alone? Can I call you? Make her sigh. I'm busy. Can you call in 15 minutes? Literally, Pixie. And then I reply.
Starting point is 00:10:25 Something bad's happened! There it is, Brie and Clint. Bit of backstory, bit of context to mine and Brie's relationship. Brie recently has a habit of not ruining but slightly spoiling TV shows for me, but she doesn't mean to. I never do it on purpose. She doesn't mean to. And I feel bad.
Starting point is 00:10:45 So there's no malice involved. And it's not my fault that you don't watch anything and you're 10 years too late. No, I do watch things. I just cannot watch them at the same pace as you. Case in point, there's a show on Netflix at the moment that I suggested to you. People might be watching it, it's called Four Seasons.
Starting point is 00:11:04 It's got Steve Carell and... Fey in it. It's very good, very easy watching. Very funny. I was recommending it to Bree all week last week, I was like, have you started Four Seasons yet? Have you started Four Seasons yet? No, no, I'm going to wait till my partner gets home. On Friday I said to you, have you started Four Seasons yet? And you said, oh, we'll watch it this weekend. And so that was Friday. I checked in with you on Monday and I said, how are you enjoying four seasons? And Bree goes, oh yeah, what about this thing
Starting point is 00:11:32 that happens at the end? And you've chewed through the whole season in one weekend. Can I just, I will stand up for myself here and say that technically that entire show is eight episodes, half an hour episode, so technically it's about four hours so it's two movies. So I watched two movies this weekend, not a big deal. That's not the way that I look at it, it's eight episodes. Which is two movies. I just hadn't finished it yet, okay. I didn't give away anything. We just have, it's like a metabolism, right?
Starting point is 00:12:07 We have a very different television watching metabolism. Like an eight episode series probably lasts me three weeks. Two or three weeks. That's a long time. And then you threw the whole thing in a weekend. Yeah, cause that was what I watched this weekend. I didn't watch anything else. Yeah, right, okay.
Starting point is 00:12:24 You know, so that was like my little like, thing that I watched this weekend. I didn't watch anything else. Yeah, right, okay. You know, so that was like my little like, thing that I did this weekend. But you watched The Warriors, didn't you? Yeah, I watched that. Oh yeah, was that an intermission? That was my break in between. Claudia, you can be the referee in this. Am I really slow?
Starting point is 00:12:40 Is Brie really fast? I think both are true. Where's the middle ground on this? Both are true at the same time. But do you see where I'm coming from? That technically it's only two movies. Yes, but also I feel like the way that you responded to the question of Clint being like, so have you seen it?
Starting point is 00:12:54 And you immediately went in with a here's something happened at the end. I didn't say what happened at the end. But you just need to assume that the other has seen nothing and talk about it accordingly. Clint told me about it. How ago like a week ago and so I just yeah, yeah, yeah like a week ago So I would assume That if you watch one episode, let's say you watch one episode a night half an hour. Okay Yeah, potentially two because it's literally only an hour of your time that you would have finished it days ago
Starting point is 00:13:24 Yeah, okay only an hour of your time that you would have finished it days ago. Yeah okay I can see I can see where that that calculation comes from. And I think I was conservative because I didn't say what happened. Yeah yeah but I would make it worse because now I'm jumping to all these other conclusions. Anyway it's just a stupid TV show but it's worth a watch. The same thing happened with The Last of Us. I think I'd just been hurt before. The Last of Us. How did that even happen? I know. At least I felt bad. Someone else did the same thing to you and then tried to justify it. Yeah. Shows brought to you by NEON. You can stream that brand new season of The Last of Us on NEON.
Starting point is 00:14:02 There's a new episode out tonight. you can stream that brand new season of The Last of Us on Neon. There's a new episode out tonight. The Tea live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean, Taylor Swift's team have released a statement about her, I guess, implications with the Justin Baldoni Blake Lively situation and it really is pretty straightforward, the statement, isn't it? Oh, it sure is. But here's what happened. So she has been subpoenaed in the Blake Lively, Justin Baldoine case, and her team had set out, have actually released a statement.
Starting point is 00:14:35 And it's really, really clear. They said this, Taylor Swift never set foot on the set of this movie. She was not involved in the casting, creative directions, did not have anything to do with the score. In fact, she'd not even seen the movie until it had been out for weeks and the public had already seen it. So she had nothing to do with this movie. She was not involved with the creative direction, which has kind of been implied, right? I mean, the fact that she's been subpoenaed. Now she does, however, have a song that is going to... that appeared in the movie, and her team said that if you're going to subpoena Taylor, because she has a song in the movie,
Starting point is 00:15:09 which is her only connection to this movie, you must subpoena all other 19 artists who had songs involved with the movie. She could not be more distanced from this. And you know what? Like, I don't know. Here's the thing, though. Just to refresh everyone's memory, the reason she's kind of involved in this there was a meeting at Blake Lively's penthouse with Justin Balzoni there and Ryan Reynolds and apparently Taylor Smith was there whether she didn't know that there was like a meeting about the movie like Blake was like come over for coffee Taylor comes over and they discuss the movie and that is yeah that that that friendship is is over. That friendship is done and dusted. You can tell from the statement.
Starting point is 00:15:48 My favourite bit was in the statement it said Taylor had nothing to do with the movie. She was busy on the biggest world tour in history. That's an actual verbatim line from the press statement. They said she was busy on the biggest tour in history. Headlining the biggest tour in history. Leave her out of it pretty much like leave her alone and I have to agree. Like why are they dragging her into it? It's not it's not anything to do with her you know. I think it's that thing where they've gone but what about my friend Taylor Swift she'll vouch for me. And a true friend would not do that. But like the judge is going to go, Oh my God, you know Taylor Swift. Oh girl, you win. We'll let you off. But can you get me tickets to the next Eris tour?
Starting point is 00:16:30 Yeah. I'm sorry for the judge. If I taste this mist, we have a winner. Yeah. Yeah. We've got both receipts and a photo op. Can I get tickets to the Eris tour? If I can, Blake Lively wins.
Starting point is 00:16:41 I'm just picturing Dean in a judge's gown and with a with a gavel. Yeah, a gavel. A gavel, sorry. Well, if you want to picture him in nothing at all, go to his Instagram, because he's on a speedo trip for the Joshua Tree at the moment.
Starting point is 00:16:53 Isn't your stories at the moment, Dean, are literally just something that only people in their dreams would experience. I'm having Joshua Tree with my friends for their birthday, and they're their dreams would experience. At Dean McCarthy. I've been tossing a tree with my friends for their birthday and they're good looking dudes. Yeah they are. I've never seen more good looking men in one place at one time. Dean McCarthy, search one on Instagram.
Starting point is 00:17:17 How much does your dog mean to you? Well a research team has answered that question with a study, this was done over in Hungary, where they explored the role dogs play in human social networks. So they did this by comparing human-dog relationships with human-to-human relationships and where the dog relationship measured up. Okay, against the people in your life. Against the closest people. So these are the ones they measured it against.
Starting point is 00:17:50 So the closest relative was one. Romantic partner, best friend, and child. And guess where the dog came in. I would hope the dog came in above the children. I would hope the dog came in above the children. I would hope the dog came in above your romantic part. No, no, other way around. Other way around. I hope the children were above the dog.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Yeah. I hope your wife or husband or long-term boyfriend or girlfriend are above the dog. Yep. And then the rest, you know. This is how it went. Kids number one. Good. Number two, dog.
Starting point is 00:18:29 What? Yeah, the only human to human relationship that outperformed the dog relationship. With your children. Was with your children. Wow. So dogs outperformed humans on these different measures, affection, reliability, reassurance
Starting point is 00:18:50 of worth and companionship. Romantic partners only beat dogs in one area, thank God, intimacy. Thank God. Thank God for that. The love of a dog is a high bar to set your partner. I understand that. If you want unconditional love from your partner, if you want your partner to literally start panting
Starting point is 00:19:12 the second you walk in the door. You're not gonna get it. If you want your partner to follow you around the house from room to room and sleep at your feet. Yeah. No. You're not gonna get that relationship with your partner. It also says that the human dog relationship most closely resembled a parent-child relationship, but the dog relationship didn't have any negative interactions like a parent-child relationship has.
Starting point is 00:19:36 But the kids still went on top. Yeah. Maybe because people just felt bad and they were like, oh, well, I better save my kids. It's interesting. That means that people are prioritising the relationships in which the personal creature is dependent on them. Because your children are dependent on you, your dog is dependent on you,
Starting point is 00:19:54 your partner is independent, or at least they should be. Some. Yeah, some. Some are. Most. The good ones. Yeah, some are. Yeah, yeah. So therefore you're like... Isn't that why, like to me, I'm not that shocked by the results.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Yeah, you put your dogs above your partner? No! But I just know how much I love my dogs. Yeah. And I know what they bring to my life. So they're pretty high in terms of... But if you had to choose one... My partner.
Starting point is 00:20:21 I'm not even going to think about it. Good answer, good answer. What would you choose? My partner. Oh, a little hesitant. I'm not even going to think about it. Good answer. What would you choose? My partner. Oh, a little hesitant. I'm just kidding. Whatever. Even if it is the dog, you have to say partner.
Starting point is 00:20:32 Because the dog, they don't understand what we're saying. They're not listening to the radio. They're not going to be annoyed at you for the next fortnight. Exactly. It's a great point. Just be smarter guys. Interestingly, Claudia, single, dog, no kids. Above everyone.
Starting point is 00:20:51 Yeah, dog above everyone. He's my number one. The dog is your ride or die. And I was thinking like, because my next partner will be after the dog. Yes. I think I'd pick the dog. And any subsequent children would be after the dog. Come on Claudia, at what point? Well if I have to choose between a new relationship. This pick the dog. And any subsequent children Come on Claudia! At what point?
Starting point is 00:21:06 Well if I have to choose between a new relationship This is the thing And the love of my life, my dog The bar is set for any new person coming into your life You're like, well I could go out on a date with you Or I could stay home with this dog Here's it, no, well let's put it into Staying home with the dog
Starting point is 00:21:20 Let's put it into realistic, you know, kind of terms You start dating someone new, right? You really like them. Things are going well. Eventually it gets to that point where you're like, oh, I've got a dog. And they tell you that they're deathly allergic. Can't be around dogs. Can't be around.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Too bad. So sad. Bye bye. And to be honest, what what if you felt like they could be the one? Well, I'm not gonna get rid of my dog. No, you're... For anything. I'd probably say there's plenty more fish in the sea. Yeah, I'll take you to the chemist,
Starting point is 00:21:56 we'll find some anti-allergens, we're good to go. Oh, that, I was just gonna kick him to the... Get them some kind of injection, that's the test. You go, hey, willing to meet you halfway on this? Are you willing to alter your DNA? It's a deal breaker. You decide. Or I'll shave the dog.
Starting point is 00:22:18 Will you shave your dog for me? He's gonna be cold in winter. The ultimate Valentine's Day gift. Bulldog. The ZM Podcast Network. I saw the Girls Uninterrupted podcast with our friends Brody Kane and Caitlin Marrett and Gracie. Love those girls. They're very good. They're having a conversation about what the sexiest occupation is, like the sexiest job someone can do. That's interesting. I feel like very different depending on who you ask.
Starting point is 00:22:48 Absolutely. Especially when it comes to like the girls slash the lads. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But I have looked at the list of jobs and they're all fairly unisex jobs, you know? So. That's what I mean. I reckon it's very different who the guys are gonna pick
Starting point is 00:23:04 to who the women are gonna pick. like the straight dudes are not looking for a lady firefighter yeah yeah yeah I don't think for yourself but yeah yeah would you put that at the top of your list now I wasn't at the top of my list yeah yeah and I actually don't know what's at the top of my list at the top of my list what are ladies lady fire yeah yeah hot and you know what else is at the top of my list? Lady cops. Oh, we've talked about lady cops before. Nothing hotter to me than a lady cop.
Starting point is 00:23:32 I was in the traffic lights today next to a very attractive lady cop. They were all attractive. I'm convinced. I don't think I've ever met an unattractive lady cop. But I found myself looking over at her at the traffic lights, and then I was like, it's one thing to be a pervert, it's another thing to be a perv at a cop on the road.
Starting point is 00:23:49 You would have looked real shifty. I had to rain myself. And 9696 if you think you know what the most attractive job is, just text us. Lady Cop. Do you want to hear their list? And we can all pick from their list. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:24:02 So the girls suggested firefighter. Yes. Coach. Which I imagine means... Like of a like what a high school rugby team. Does it include like PT, personal trainer or... Or are they talking about like... Like All Blacks level... Or is it like yeah life coach. Or like Razor. Yeah. Oh yeah. Robinson. Like Fozzie Bear. Doctor slash nurse. Which I guess would include paramedic as well, wouldn't it? Paramedics are hot. Does it include paramedic though? I don't think it does.
Starting point is 00:24:31 I reckon it's different. Yeah, paramedics are very hot. Pilot. Yeah. Pilot's a classic. Chef. Okay. Farmer.
Starting point is 00:24:40 Right. And then arborist. They're the ones that do the trees, right? Yeah, the guys that climb the trees and hang off the trees with the chainsaws. That's because of that guy on TikTok. Which guy? The guy that wears the overalls and he just literally breaks these enormous logs apart with an axe. No no he's, no that wouldn't count him. He'd be a lumberjack not an an arborist. We're going to throw a lumberjack on there then. Lumberjack in there? An arborist is a rogue.
Starting point is 00:25:08 Is lumberjack a job in 2025? I don't know. That guy's made it into a job. I think arborists have great arms. Mmm. Armbarist. Armbarist. So what is it off the list? What are you guys choosing? I have a top two for sure.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Do you? Yeah. OK, Claudia, what's your top two hottest fighters? Yeah, and pilots. Okay. Okay. Yeah. What about one of those pilots who flies one of the planes that can dump water on bushfires? Even hotter. Yeah Firefighting pilot. Yeah. Bri, you've got a top two as well, don't you? Yeah, top two. Actually to be honest, I'm just gonna go rogue Anyone in a police uniform that is for me. No radio show sexualizes the police more than the Breeze show. I'll be honest I you know moving from Australia to New Zealand one of the first things
Starting point is 00:26:01 I noticed how hot the cops are here. All of them. I've never met an unattractive cop in this country. Every single one of them. And Breeze had a lot of running with the cops. I've been pulled over a million times. To be honest, I feel like I'm doing it on purpose now just so I can meet them. Yeah, totally. It's understandable. Pixie, what's the hottest job? I reckon I'm going to go with Claude on the firefighter. And I reckon the arborist as well. I've seen some hot arborists
Starting point is 00:26:26 Yeah, there's a lot of people texting in about the chaps that they wear. Oh Yeah, we do love we do love good-looking chaps. We love a good-looking chap and chap Mmm, someone texted and said female electricians No, there's a net. Yeah, okay hot seems like a niche one. But yeah, mmm, I Totally get that. Female tradies in general. Yes, Pixie. I think it's just women in general, right?
Starting point is 00:26:49 Yeah. Okay, can we all agree? All women. All women. Hot. And firefighters. Claudia, someone just texted and said, Claudia, my husband is a pilot. The fantasy is way better than the reality. His co-workers are not even above average.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Oh, come on. Some par even. And someone said the arborists know their way around a good bush. So. Nice. It always comes in handy, you know, especially after-
Starting point is 00:27:17 Pruning season. A long spring. A long dry spell. Yeah. Anyway, back to cops. How hot Kiwi Cops, where are you at? It's ZM's Bree and Clint podcast. How many? How many?
Starting point is 00:27:36 How many? How many? That's a good amount. The game where you win if you have the most things. The thing determined by producer Claudia. I have the power. You have the power. Do you want to know the topic today?
Starting point is 00:27:52 Would love to. Okay, the topic today, which we're trying to find the most of, how many siblings do you have? Ooh, okay. So we've got Emma, she's standing by to play. Hi Emma. Hi Emma. Hi, how are you Emma. She's standing by to play. Hi, Emma. Hi, Emma.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Hi, how are you? Can we just confirm before we get into this? You're not an only child, are you? No, I'm not an only child. Okay, thank goodness. So, it's Emma's job to figure out who is going to have less siblings than her. Is it Brie, Clint, we've got Pixie in the producer booth, or me? I'll throw myself in too. Emma, how many siblings do you have? I've got two.
Starting point is 00:28:28 You've got two? Two siblings. And what's the split? Two brothers, two sisters, one of each? I've got two brothers, one older, one younger. Oh, you're the middle child, Emma. I am the middle child, only girl. So you need someone with one sibling or less, Emma?
Starting point is 00:28:45 Yes. Hmm. I don't know how closely or how So you need someone with one sibling or less, Emma? Yes. Hmm. I don't know how closely or how long you've listened to this show. I don't know how often we talk about that. Yeah, who do you reckon, Emma, out of all of us in here, has the least amount of siblings? I think I'm gonna go with Claude.
Starting point is 00:29:02 Claude, okay. Claudia. Interesting. I have no idea what Pixie's sibling setup is. I do. Do you? Yeah. Do you, how? Because I've talked to you about it before.
Starting point is 00:29:12 Because she's Instagram's talked to you. She's a good listener as well. I was at your house. Emma, you want to eliminate Brie? Yes. Emma, you would have won if you picked me because I've also got two siblings. Wow, so close.
Starting point is 00:29:30 Pixie, how many siblings? I've got three. Three? You would have lost. You would have lost. Emma, I have three siblings. You would have also lost. You would have lost.

Emma, I can tell you. Claudia, what are you running? I'm rocking a family with... How many times did your parents do it? Oh, that's disgusting. Total. Total.

Sure, we'll do 100 next week. I don't think anyone's ever lost that game before. It's ZM's Brinklin podcast. We want to know what came first, the Last of Us video game or the Last of Us TV show.
Starting point is 00:30:42 You can text that to 9696 and we'll draw out a winner for that free three month neon subscription at six o'clock. Right now I want to talk about a movie I watched last night. Some people are probably, there's probably a lot of people listening that have watched it in the last couple of days because it's kind of just come out. Yeah. With Vince Vaughan and it's called Nonna's. It's based on a true story about this guy who, this Italian guy who had this dream later in life to open up a restaurant, but instead as chefs, he uses, he hires all of these nonnas
Starting point is 00:31:20 to come in and do the cooking. Which are Italian grandmothers, right? Italian grandmothers to come in and do the cooking and the restaurant Italian grandmothers, right? Italian grandmothers to come in and do the cooking and the restaurant, I think it's still running to this day. Very successful restaurant. Oh, True Story. True Story, yeah, based on True Story. Anyway, one of the other people who is acting in it
Starting point is 00:31:38 is Susan Sarandon and very famous actress. I think she's been in the game for 50 years. But we've got a little bit of the trailer from the movie. who you're going to get to come down and cook. Nonas, other real life Italian grandmothers. I am from Bologna. I spit on Bologna. Spit on Sicily, okay? Yeah, that sounds very good. I feel like I'm at home. The movie's great. I think it meant quite a lot to me
Starting point is 00:32:19 because obviously I have Italian heritage and it reminded me a lot of my nona. But the biggest thing that I learned watching this movie last night is Susan Sarandon. I've always known very, very attractive, great actress. In this movie, I'm watching and I'm like, I wonder how old Susan Sarandon is? Because obviously all the Nunas, you know You know quite they're older. Yeah, and so I was like
Starting point is 00:32:49 Wonder how old she is because she looks incredible My partner and I as we're sitting there watching it. We took a guess. Yeah, and we both guessed around 66 yeah, what it's gonna say 666 66 that's how well we thought she was. I googled, how old is Susan Sarandon? She's 78. Turning 79 this year. The woman is nearly 80.
Starting point is 00:33:21 And she, if you haven't seen this movie or you haven't seen her lately, I don't know what unicorn blood or what she's drinking. She looks unbelievable. What is happening in Hollywood these days where the work she's had done, if she's had any work done, because it doesn't look like she has, it just looks like her. Yeah, 78 is wild. Is that not wild to you?
Starting point is 00:33:51 Yeah, but also 78, I mean, age is just a number at the end of the day, but 78 to still be acting in huge films and things like that too. Like I wanna be so fricking retired by the time I'm 78, that you won't even see me. But they do it because they enjoy it and they love it, I guess. You have to.
Starting point is 00:34:09 I could not. And you need people to play 78 year olds, I guess. Yeah. I could not comprehend that that woman is 78. Like if I look like her now, I'd be happy. Should I Google Susan Sarandon skincare routine? Yeah, what is she doing? And what's all of Hollywood
Starting point is 00:34:26 doing actually? Have you guys noticed the shift? Here you go, Susan Sarandon's five must have beauty products. Yeah what is it? Sunscreen. Yep got that. A nice moisturizer. Got that. A preventative serum to protect skin from free radicals. Got that. And lip balm. Got that. There you go. That's four. That's from the Herald. That was four. Oh. You missed one. Her L'Oreal Paris Volume Million Lashes Feline Mascara. That seems like a product placement. That seems like a hashtag add to me. But the other ones are good. Anyway, do yourself a favour. Imperv on Susan Sarandon. No, go watch the movie! Play ZM's Bri' Bree Inclined.
Starting point is 00:35:06 I saw this video over the weekend of a girl admitting to some very embarrassing teenage behaviour. Which we've all done. Not this, but I mean we've all done embarrassing things as teenagers. Yeah, of course. It's a very awkward stage of life. And so it should be. Yeah. You're learning. Yeah, totally. And growing. And growing. And changing. And so it should be. Yeah. So you're learning. Yeah, totally. And growing, and growing, and changing, and smelling different, experiencing different feelings. And here is the
Starting point is 00:35:32 physical embodiment of that. I had a Jonas Brothers poster in my room growing up. Joe was my favorite, so I would make out with the poster so much that I wore his mouth off. And then I was like, well, what do I do now? So then I started making out with Nick, and then I wore his mouth off and then I was like, well, what do I do now? So then I started making out with Nick and then I wore his mouth off and I just couldn't get behind Kevin. So I had a Jonas Brothers poster in my room of Joe and Nick with no mouth, just a hole. And Kevin, some would say he was spared. That's so disturbing. And every day-
Starting point is 00:36:04 Very disturbing. That girl's parents would go into her room, she's you know, tidy up and stuff, have a look at what's going on. And the wear and tear on Joe's face would get more and more and more. And then Nick's face would get more and more and more, and she would bore through to the wallpaper. And at what point do you have a word with your daughter and go, honey, honey. I think it's time to take the poster down. Honey, do you think we should laminate the Jonas Brothers poster? I mean, that's a good idea. I'm just glad it was her telling the story and not a teenage boy.
Starting point is 00:36:39 Do you have anything from your teen years that compares to that? Like, where you look back and you just go. from your teen years that compares to that? Like where you look back and you just go... I'm trying to think, like obviously there would be a heap of stuff where I feel like I've on purpose blocked it out of my memory. Me too, that's how I feel about it too, you know? Like you've pushed it down and you're like no don't think about that. A lot of awkward moments, you know? I feel like it's yeah I'd prefer not to think about I can't think of anything off the top of my head can you? I do have a memory of someone because do you remember how big a deal do you remember how big a deal it was learning how to kiss? Oh when you're a teenager? Terrifying. And the pressure that when
Starting point is 00:37:20 you kiss someone properly kiss someone, pash someone for the first time you were gonna do it wrong. Who taught you? My cousin's Dolly magazine. My older cousin's Dolly magazine. The sealed section. And in the magazine it told you to practice on the shower wall.
Starting point is 00:37:34 Oh! It said, here's the technique. If you're worried about it, practice on the shower wall. And my parents had this like patterned... You practiced on the shower wall, didn't you? For Micah, shower wall. I definitely practiced on the shower wall and my parents had this like patterned... You practiced on the shower wall didn't you? For Micah, shower wall? I definitely practiced on the wall because that's what the magazine said to do. And looking back on it now, like if anybody had ever walked into that bathroom
Starting point is 00:37:55 and seen me, a naked teenager making out with the wall of the shower, I don't think I ever would have physically, mentally or emotionally recovered from that. I wanna stop thinking about that image now. Yeah. It's made me feel very uncomfortable. But I mean, at least I was brave enough to share one. Unlike you. Can I think about it?
Starting point is 00:38:15 I feel like I've tried, I can't, I'm panicking. Honestly, do you want me to tell you about the first person that I ever kissed and how bad it was? Sure. It was this guy, I'll even tell you his the first person that I ever kissed and how bad it was? Sure. It was this guy, I'll even tell you his name. It was this guy named Dean. Dean Hyatt. And it was at a break up softball, like the softball tournament had finished and we're
Starting point is 00:38:37 having a break up party. I was in grade nine, I think he was in grade nine too. And it was my first kiss ever and there was so much saliva, like so much and I'm pretty sure it was my fault, but the kiss ended because we ended up hitting our teeth so hard that it really hurt. Should have left the softball mouth guards in. That would have been better. Would have helped.
Starting point is 00:39:11 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that is an embarrassing moment from my teenage years. Okay, nice try. What? I thought that was pretty good. Okay, do you want another one? I hooked up with the head boarding mistress's son and I got caught because I snuck out of the boarding house because I put blue tack in the doors and snuck out, ran down to the house that
Starting point is 00:39:33 they got given because she was the head boarding mistress, got into into his room via window and and she found out like maybe the last two months of school. Yeah. And I'm pretty lucky that she didn't expel me from the boarding house. and she found out like maybe the last two months of school. Yeah. And I'm pretty lucky that she didn't expel me from the boarding house. Okay, good. All right, I'm satisfied.
Starting point is 00:39:53 That was pretty bad. If you have an embarrassing story of you as a teenager, which you can laugh about now that you want to share with us, we would love to hear from you. Did you pass your hole through a poster? Yeah, that one's taken the cake for me. And did your parents let you live it down? Your birthday banger is the number one song on your 16th birthday.

Yeah pretty good I'd say. Yeah. Bit of a bop, bit of a bop from Drake. Nicole's gonna go next hi Nicole. Hi Nicole.

Starting point is 00:45:00 I think it's when we go that song is 20 years old. That I'm not cool about. Anything 05 or older. Yeah. Especially if it's one that you remember enjoying that's when it really hurts. I felt like that was yesterday. Yeah totally. ZM's Brian Clint. My single friend sent me some screenshots this morning from the dating apps of someone they have stumbled across. Thought you'd be interested in? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Like this is a bit of you. Get rid of that wife of yours. Hey, what are you writing about this one? No, no. This female friend of mine is on the apps and she sent me some screenshots of a man which she has swiped past. That you'd be interested in? Well he is an all black.
Starting point is 00:45:40 No way! So. If you were going to date any man, it would be. It would need to be. It would need to be. At least a World Cup winning all black. No way! So... If you were going to date any man, it would be... It would need to be. It would need to be... At least a World Cup winning all black. Dan Carter. That'd be your top A.
Starting point is 00:45:52 I don't want to date Dan Carter, okay? More ways than one. I want him to be my best friend. But even that sounds desperate. Anyway... He could be both. She's not on Raya or anything. She's not on the Famous Person dating apps.
Starting point is 00:46:04 She's on regular old Tinder bumble. Okay, just the hinge, whatever. The normal dating apps. Yeah, I think she's on all of them. I don't know which one this is, but she sent me these screenshots and she's like, is this who I think it is? And I was like, yeah, that's All Black. I won't name them here, but they are an All Black and they're very, very famous All Black too. But they are an all black and they're very very famous all black too Are they current or X all black X X all black? Yeah. Yeah, how old are we talking? Um, oh Like can you give us at least ballpark of your range that'd be oh I don't want to name the person because you have to name them but you can be like probably 35 to 40, 40 to 45. That'd be in their 30s. Okay, that's a big range.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Yeah, that'll do. Well, if they're ex-all black, probably 35 to 40. No, see, you're just trying to find out who it is. It's not about who it is, it's about the level of fame, okay? And you have, we've established a level of fame, well-known all black on the apps. Would I know them? Nah, but I don't know what your knowledge of all blacks is like so yeah, right and
Starting point is 00:47:09 Her question was the same as my question Is it a bit weird for someone that famous to find someone that famous on the dating apps? You just swiping through regular people like yourself and like oh, yeah, we could date we could do we could day Oh, yeah, we could date wait I list New Zealand celebrity on the dating apps? Well depends depends who's looking like for me I wouldn't even know who that is that's a good point yeah that's a good you know whereas like a big fan yeah but this person yeah the All Blacks yeah then yes you don't have to be a big fan of the All Blacks to know a lot of All Blacks though. They are about as household name as it gets.
Starting point is 00:47:46 You know? They're a big deal. Is it a bit weird that they're on the dating apps? Shouldn't they be off in like celebrity circles meeting famous celebrity people in celebrity circles? How else are they meant to meet someone? I don't know, just from being famous and attractive? Like it would just come to them, wouldn't it?
Starting point is 00:48:03 Who knows? They don't need the apps. We should ask a celebrity. No don't ask a celebrity because it's not up to them. What? It's up to everybody else as to whether it's weird that they're on the apps. No, we should ask a celebrity if people just throw themselves at them. Oh. Yeah. Because I don't think, I mean depends. I think it would. I think, especially if you're an all black, I think you would have people thrown at you. Maybe not the type of person you were looking to settle down with, but you definitely would have people thrown themselves at you.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Claudia, sorry to always go to you as the single person of reference, but are you seeing many famous people on the apps? No, but back in my heyday, I did match with the lead singer of one of my favourite bands at the time. Did you? It was a very low-key band, but... Who was it? Do you remember Open Side?
Starting point is 00:48:53 Yeah! Favourite band. Yeah, yeah, okay. Yeah, I was more a flip side fan. Yeah, that's fair. No shade to Open Side, R.I.P. Yeah, they were very not mainstream. But Claudia, I'm talking about an all-black hair. Yeah, but...
Starting point is 00:49:07 Compared to... I think though... I feel like your version of an all-black, like you put them on a pedestal. Like you say A-list, we say... We're like, who? Nah, that's bullshit. But okay, someone of the same level.
Starting point is 00:49:18 Someone of the same level. Okay. Like a Shortland Street actor or... I don't know, what do you guys consider famous? If it's not a fricking all-blackblack what's famous in New Zealand to you guys? Lord. Yeah Lord. Okay Lord.
Starting point is 00:49:31 International acting I think. Lord international yeah like Grammy winner. Temuera Morrison or something. Okay. If he was on the app it would be weird. Is it weird if Temuera, there we go! It would be weird if Temuera Morrison was on the apps wouldn't it? Yeah let them live Clint. Yeah let them live. Stop scaring all the celebrities off the apps. If they want to date a normie let them.
Starting point is 00:49:53 Where what if the normies would like. I also wouldn't I mean I've never been on the apps. I've never been on the apps so I have a skewed perspective I guess but I would naturally think that it was a fake account too. There's no way that this all black is on little old hinge you know? Yeah I think Claudia is exactly right I think obviously you know the all blacks are your Everest. I feel like nothing is higher than the all blacks for you like you put them so feel like nothing is higher than the All Blacks for you. Like you put them so high on the pedestal that obviously when you hear that one of your heroes is, of course you're gonna go, what? No, but I'm asking you to give me a relative level of fame for a comparison.
Starting point is 00:50:39 It doesn't have to be an All Black. I'm just talking about the phenomenon, not of All all blacks on dating apps, of celebrities on dating apps. Yeah, like if I saw Lorde on a dating app, I'd be like, what in the world? Yeah. And then I'd be super upset if we didn't match. Yeah, right? Yeah. You hold your breath, you swipe and you got all black. So say you are Lorde, all you have to do is swipe yes and you know it will be a match because you know every other person will have swiped yes on you just for the chance to go on a date with you. Unless they think you're fake. That's the thing Yeah, you know, but someone as famous as Lorde is never gonna be on Tinder She's never gonna be on Tinder. She's she like she is actual A-list celebrity
Starting point is 00:51:21 You know, like she can't she actually can't go on those dating apps. No, she couldn't. She has to go on Ryo, Ryo, whatever it's called. Yeah. I wonder if she is now that she's single. Maybe. Yeah. Because yeah, she is single now. Anyway, if you're in Auckland, keep a wide radius.
Starting point is 00:51:40 If all blacks are your thing, we've got a live one on the apps. They're out there. ZM's Bri and Clint podcast. And that is the end of the Bri and Clint show. Oh, let's go baby, The Last of Us. Night tonight. Yeah, I hope it's a good episode. I reckon it's gonna be. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:59 You gotta have the faith. I'm loving it so far. Yeah. There's two camps, right, watching The Last of Us. People who are in it for the human storyline, the love storyline, and the rest of us who just want them to do the zombie stuff. Yeah, but that's not what The Last of Us,
Starting point is 00:52:14 at its core, has ever been about. It's about human connection. Well, that's easy for you to say as someone who's getting what they want out of the TV show. Me and Claudia over here just want some zombies. You get me zombies? And they've been starved of zombies the last few episodes. Guys, don't worry. They eventually will be zombies.
Starting point is 00:52:33 Oh, we found out we're not supposed to refer to them as zombies, by the way. What are they? From the company. They're infected. Yeah, they're infected. Oh, of course. Which is a kind way of talking to them, talking about them when the rest of the show is just blasting their heads off. Technically they're not zombies because they're still alive.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Where as zombies are the, zombies like the actual term, they are the walking dead. So they're dead. Whereas these people have been infected by the mushroom virus and but they're still alive. That makes it even sadder. Anyway, new episode out tonight on Neon. Get amongst, we'll catch you guys back tomorrow. See you later.
