For a few years, in the 1970s, the Mr Asia syndicate made millions. Heroin creates its own market. It acts like a form of play. Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down. Then he just pulled out a gun, shot her in the back of the head, and then said to Wayne, you're going to help me bury her. This is Mr Asia, A Forgotten History.

Zeddy, Brie and Clint. Salve, alave everybody and welcome to the second to last Friday of the Brie and Clint show for 2024.

Woohoo! Second to last time. You have to hear us burn your eardrums with our singing. What are we singing today? I can't even remember. Chapel Roan, Good Luck Babe. Oh. I believe. Yeah, you're right. Guys, you can tell it's getting towards the end of the year, but we put our everything. I'm not bothering to remember anything anymore.

I'm at that part of the year. You'll let me do all the remembering for the rest of the year? No. Between us, we'll figure it out. Okay. That's good. It's like you're a sieve and I'm a sieve, but your sieve is held above my sieve or the other way around. Do we just catch what we can? Yeah. Can I be the top sieve?

Yeah, you can be top sieve. I don't want to be catching stuff after it's gone through you. Yeah, fair, fair. Yeah, I've got bottom sieve energy. Okay, you're bottom sieve, I'm top sieve. Five o'clock today, Chapel Roan. Just think about how hard this song is to sing for Chapel Roan, let alone

Brie and I. I think when you try and sing this song, it makes you realise how incredible her voice is. That's every song we've ever done. That's the realisation I've had on almost every song we've ever done. Some more than others. That's the realisation I've had on almost every song, you know?

Yeah. Anyway, fun show. Anyway, tradie versus lady first. Let's go. Oh, $800 at M. One tradie, one lady, 50 bucks cash on the line and all the glory. Bree and Clint. Time for tradie versus lady.

Let's have another go Our lady is calling us from Christchurch She's 36 and her husband, Jed, played on Monday at the start of the week and he was a loser. Welcome to the show, Tanya. Hi, Tanya. Hi.

Welcome to the show, Nate. G'day, Nate. Hey, guys, how are we? How long did you think that for? Probably until I was up until about 14, yeah. What do you think road rash is? I wouldn't have a clue. He just learnt what road kill is.

Tanya, your buzzer is lady. Nate, your tradie. The first of three wins the game. Good luck, guys. Here we go. Question number one. What do you call a baby goat? Lady.

21,000 kilometres. That's a great guess, Nate, and you were correct. 21,000 kilometres. 21 kilometres would still be a very impressive wall. It would be. And when you put it into the context that it's 21,000, it's a bloody long wall. It's a big wall.

Okay, one apiece. Question number four. What was the catchphrase of the Milky Bar Kid? Lady. Yes, Tanya. Milky Ways are on me. Oh, so close.

Mate. What? Oh, Tanya was so close. Can we give it to Tanya? No, you... I think we've got to give it to her, right? Tanya, we'll ask you again. What was the catchphrase of the Milky Bar Kid?

I hope you rubbed that into your husband. Thank you. Nate, that was good from you. Have a good day, guys. See you. You too, Nate. See you. Bree and Clint.

The year is rapidly drawing to a close. I was reading today a list of the top 10 songs of the year, not from Billboard, because that's very easy to measure. That's just stats. Most downloaded, most streamed, most purchased. Yeah, there's no real discussion. Nah, this is more subjective, but it's from the New York Times,

who are fairly reputable. So I thought it'd be worth looking at what they think the top 10 songs of the year were. What are the people at the Times listening to? Before we go to the people at the Times What's your number one song of 2024? Oh god Well if you don't go by my Spotify rap

What was it? No I don't want to talk about it No it's not that bad My song of the year I reckon Would probably have to be Maybe Pink Pony Club Oh okay that's a good choice. Or Birds of a Feather.

Oh, nice. Billie Eilish. What about you? Those are respectable choices. Neither of those are on the New York Times top 10 songs of the year. I won't say mine because mine is on the list. Okay. So here we go.

We're going to start at number 10. Remember, when people put these lists together, they always put some things in there that you've never heard of to make them sound cool. Yeah, gotcha, gotcha. But according to the New York Times, the 10th biggest song of the year, 10th best song of the year

was from Tyler. Remember Tyler who did Water? Yes. Yeah, not that song. Her song Safer. Tyler's very cool. I've never heard this song. Can't say I've heard it.

It gives me her... And we are literally on the radio. It gives me Water vibes, but I love, heard this song. Can't say I've heard it. It gives me her... And we are literally on the radio. It gives me water vibes, but I love... Yeah, love. Number nine was from Flo. It's called Caught Up. Again. Haven't heard of it.

Cool, but... Sounds fun, though. Never heard of it. Number two, I do know Leon Bridges. He had the eighth biggest song of the year. Sorry, not biggest, best. Let's get to a song that we know. I haven't heard that song either.

Seven is from Eyes and... From The Smile. Six is this. Haven't heard that. I see a theme starting to happen That one hurts my brain Five is this from Mavis Staples Dope But I haven't heard it before

What about number four from Shaboosie We know Shaboosie right Yeah Shaboosie. We know Shaboosie, right? Yeah. Shaboosie's Good News. This is a good song. I haven't heard that one either. It's not better than Shaboosie Tipsy, is it? That song was huge. Okay, the third biggest song of the year,

some small unknown artist by the name of Sabrina Carpenter. In my opinion, even in the Errors Tour era and in the year where Taylor Swift released a new album, it's been Sabrina Carpenter's year. Yeah, she's been incredibly successful. Her rise to fame. Number three is Beyonce.

Beyonce? Sorry, number two is Beyonce, yeah. Yeah, I like this song from Beyonce. And it was big. It was. And I know it. I've heard it before. Exactly.

It's a big part of this. And according to the New York Times, very reputable publication, they called the result of the election first. They know what they're talking about. The biggest song of the year, the most important song of the year, was Kendrick Lamar's Not Like Us. They not like us. They not like us.

They not like us. It single-handedly ended the biggest rap beef of the last 30 years. It was massive. Yeah. Between him and Drake. How do you have a top 10 of the year and you don't have Chappell Rhone on there? Yeah, that doesn't make any sense to me. Like not one, like not even Good Luck Babe.

Yeah, exactly. I don't know. But I imagine whoever wrote this list wears a monocle and a cheese grater. They've got a beard. They ride a single gear bicycle. And they only drink at craft breweries. Yeah. And they only gave us Sabrina Carpenter out of charity.

That's it. Time for the latest. After two years, the Eras Tour has finally wrapped up in Vancouver a couple of days ago. We were talking about it. But all these details around it are coming out now. So do you know how much that tour made? So it was going for two years.

Yeah. They were on tour for two years. Biggest shows that have ever been held. Huge shows. Yeah. Massive. It wrapped up earning $2 billion. Wow.

$2 billion that. Wow. Two billion dollars that tour earned and there's reports out today that Taylor Swift over those two years gave out around $300 million to her employees in bonuses. What, to like the roadies and stuff? Yeah, like everyone, like that's production staff, dancers, musicians, truck drivers, caterers, everyone over the course of two years. She dished out $300 million. Well, that's nice to hear because that is way too much money to be going to one person.

Yeah. You know? And one person can't put on a spectacle like that. Not everyone would do that, though. No, no, no. I'm not saying she had to do it. I'm just saying that she should do it, and I'm glad that she did do it. Yeah.

It's awesome to see. It's so saying that she should do it, and I'm glad that she did do it. Yeah. It's awesome to see. It's so nice that she- Should she have given more? Oh, I mean, let's be real, though. She's not making $2 billion off the tour. Oh, good point. You know, there'd be a lot of money going elsewhere and be flying all over the place. Who's got their fingers in the pie?

A lot of people would have their fingers in that pie. Probably her dad, eh? Her dad, her mum. He's like, give me some money. Her manager. Travis Kelsey's like, I need a new outfit to walk into the game in. Oh, babe, can you buy me a new Amarok? Can I get a new podcasting microphone?

I want a new Volkswagen Amarok, please. Thanks, babe. Oh, good old Taylor Swift. Yeah. Bree and Clint. Black-eyed peas. No, pussycat dolls. Very different. Has it got Will.i.am on it? I don and Clint. Black Eyed Peas. No, Pussycat Dolls. Very different.

Has it got Will.i.am on it? I don't know. I don't think so. It's a Friday jam anyway. You're on Zed In with Brie and Clint. It is drawing closer and closer to the end of the year, which means a lot of lists come out. It's because it's called BEEP.

B-E-P. Black Eyed Peas. Oh, yeah. Was it what your brain did? It only took you... Were you not listening to me at all? Were you just thinking about that? Yeah. This is the sixth to last show. Anyway,

sorry, back to you. Anyway, because it is the end of the year, there's all kinds of info that comes out, lists about the year that was, but I have a bit of an interesting one for next year, where a company called Pantone, is that how you say it?

Pantone, yeah. Pantone. They do this every year where they collate data across fashion, beauty, entertainment and the economy to provide everyone from graphic designers to interior decorators with the colours and tones that are going to be for next year. The Pantone Company does colours. That's what they do.

Yeah, that's them. That's their thing and they always are like, this is going to be the colour of the year next year. This is what it is. Like the American authority on colours. Essentially. And who's interested? Producers, does this interest you?

Like what is going to be the colour of next year? I am interested in panettone, so yes. I do love a panettone too. No, that's the bakery. Oh. Yeah, that's where you get the croissants from. Right. No, I'm not interested.

No, this is pantone. I am, Bree, but I would like to know more. What was meant to be the colour of this year? Does anyone know? Does anyone know what was the colour of this year? I'm going to say green or red. I'm pretty sure green, like a moss green, was the last year. I feel like it was red.

You think you're locking in red, Claudia? Blue. Pop of red. It's an aqua bluey kind of colour. Yes. The colour of 2024 was? Peach fuzz. What colour is that?

Isn't that what girls use those razors to shave off their face? Oh, yeah, don't remind me. But it's gone very different for next year. Okay. Because obviously peach fuzz, I picture like an orangey, pinky kind of tone. They reckon next year, according to Pantone, mock-a-moose is going to be the colour of 2025. Is that brown?

Brown. Oh, cool. It's going to be the colour. Yeah, I'm into it. I already painted that brown wall in my house this year I have seen It was orange No it's brown

It's totally orange You just house sat my house You think my brown wall is orange? The one off the kitchen Are you coloured like that? Is this the one you showed a photo There's your green couch Yeah yeah

It's orange It's chocolate brown What? I haven't been there So I don't know It's terracotta. I'll show it to Brie right now. But anyway, you carry on, Brie.

I have noticed in a lot of fashion, not that I'm a fashionista at all, I've just noticed that a lot of clothing coming out recently. A lot of neutrals, eh? Oh, yeah, it's an orangey brown. It's brown. It's got some orange undertone. Yeah, it's definitely terracotta. Like, orange overtone. Um, yeah, so much

brown clothing. Shoes included. A lot of like, even like, sambas have brought out a lot of brown sambas. I mean, I like brown, but moving forward into 2025, I want to see colour. I want to know that the year 2025 is going to be a bit of some joy and lot. You're talking to a millennial grey over here?

I was going to say, I think we bring back millennial grey. Brie is very scared of colour. Absolutely not. It sucks the life out of everything. I love grey. Beige. Give me everything in grey. Anyway, there you go.

Colour of 2025. Mock a moose, everyone. Mock a moose. There you go. Brie and Clint. What is the world we live in at the moment? I swear. Like, where is the world going? Today, I have been Googling cat behaviourists for my brother's cat.

Cat what? Behaviourless. Oh, yeah. For my brother's cat. Yeah. So he's got a cat that's eight years old, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Loves this cat to death.

Has always been a good cat. And then him and his wife in the past week have got a kitten Yes And they've brought the kitten into the house And now the cat His original cat The OG has gotten aggressive towards the kitten Ah yeah classic

Either that or they start peeing everywhere Yeah And in today's day and age We now Employ people to come over. Yeah, it's big business now. Huge business. Well, we've been doing it with the dog that we adopted.

See, dog, I mean, I've used one for my dog because I feel like- Dogs are made to be trained. Are made to be trained, whereas cats, not so much. No. Like how often do you see a cat doing tricks? Not all that often. There's actually no problem with the dog. We have a problem with the cat, but we know that we can train the dog,

so we've got a dog specialist in. If we had thought that we could get a cat trainer in to train the cat to be better with the dog, then maybe we should have done that. But what do you do when you've got two cats? Yeah. Yeah, well, that's true. Cat on cat. Like I wonder, I mean, you got your cats at the same time

and they were related, so you would have never had that problem. They'd never lived apart, so that was fine. I didn't realise, because I'm not someone who's had a lot of cats, you know, in my adult life. They're very stubborn. Very stubborn. And are they territorial? Yeah, that's why they pee everywhere.

Yeah. Right. That's why when they that's why they pee everywhere. Yeah. Right. That's why when they're threatened, they start spraying so they can leave their mutt ears disgusting. How delightful. Anyway, if anyone knows any... What's the going rate for a cat behaviouralist? It's a great question. I'm still doing my research to find the best ones in the area where he lives.

I know Arden Matilda got a cat Reiki specialist in one time to perform Reiki on one of their cats. I don't know if it was a behaviour thing or if it was like a health thing. I nearly swore then. I nearly said the F word. That's a real thing that happened. Did they do it like for serious? I think Matilda was serious.

I want to call her right now and ask her. Why don't we give them a call? Did they do it for serious? I think Matilda was serious. I want to call her right now and ask her. Why don't we give them a call? Can we call them? Yeah, yeah. Put their number in. I need to ask, was that for a gag or were you dead set serious? Okay. Reiki on a cat.

I hope they're not busy. Well, if they're getting Reiki done on their cat, I'm sure their schedule's wide open. We'll try Art. We'll see what... He'll probably be working out, but we'll just see if he's available to pick up. Give him a call. Between sets, he could take the call.

Please record your message. When you have finished recording, you may hang up. We'll try Matilda. Okay. Yeah, I want to... Hello, Matilda speaking. Hello, Matilda.

It's Bree and Clint calling from ZM. Hi, Matilda. Oh, hi, guys. What a nice surprise. How are you, first of all? I'm very well, thank you. How are you both? That's great to hear.

We're very well. Clint has just said something outrageous on our radio show, and I said that can't be for real, and we must call you immediately. I've got a fact check. I can't say things about you without checking whether it's true. Am I right in remembering that you once had a Reiki specialist come to perform Reiki on your cat? Mattel day.

You can't be serious I know I know It was a moment of desperation What for? What was it for? What were you trying to achieve? Well one of our cats in particular Was pissing all over the house

And let me tell you Clint you will know If you have this, you will know. Yes. If you have this issue, you will do whatever it is in your power to stop this doing it. Absolutely. Because it's horrific. Well, did it work?

Yeah, I must know. Did it work? Ah, oh, God. I can't even remember. I feel like it wasn't a noticeable difference, but I told myself, I think it's improving. I think it's improving. Because I didn't want to have to admit to Art that maybe it didn't work. That's hilarious. He was not on board.

He was not on board. Okay. That is great news. We're just discussing my brother's having big problems with his cat because they bought in a new kitten. I said I'm here Googling cat behaviouralists for my brother and then Clint drops that bombshell on us. Matilda did some Reiki on her cat. So I'm going to pivot and Google cat people who do Reiki.

Cat Reiki. Cat Reiki. Get the crystals, throw everything at it. Why not? I'm going to call it Crakey. Thanks, Mad crystals. Throw everything at it. Why not? I'm going to call it Craiki. Thanks, Maddie. Merry Christmas, mate. Thanks for taking our call.

Did you know that?

Yeah, pretty much. We've done all the rest. We haven't done Good Luck Babe. You'd think we would have learned our lesson from the other disaster Chapel Roan songs we've done. Every single one has been a schmuzzle. Not great. But let's see how this one goes. This might be the one.

Whose week was it? Mine or yours? It was your week. I was worried you were going to say that. Okay, here it comes. What you're going to hear is my version of Chapel Roan and then Bree's version of Chapel Roan and then we're looking for five people to pick the one up.

Just in your car, you know, on a Sunday afternoon. But look, I'm not going to go home and beat myself up about that one. Yeah, I don't know how this is going to go for me. I guess we're about to find out. Well, good luck, Bree. Thank you, babe. Which is a pun on the name of the... Oh, because the song's Good Luck Babe.

I was impressed with the opera bit. I was impressed with the whole thing. I like the opera bits. It did go a little bit Muppets Christmas at the end for me. Yeah. If you notice, Chapel Roan does an operatic style. And I was just trying to follow in her footsteps. You're just channeling Chapel, yeah.

Yeah, just trying to, yeah. Can we get five votes on 0800DialsAtM to pick the winner of that, the second to last Friday Oki of the year? Who's got it? We'd love to hear from you. 0800DialsAtM, and as always, text us on 9696. That feedback's always welcome. Bree and Clint.

Well, look, I don't know what it was, but something about Clinton's cover there I just found slightly offensive. In a good way? Offensive in a good way. There is offensive in a good way. That wasn't it. Oh, okay. I can tell you what it was.

It was the singing. It was most likely the singing, yeah. Yeah, right. However, Brie, I really appreciated the operatic maestro that you are. Thank you. Pulling out the falsetto there, harmonic, it was sublime. It's 2-0 to Brie. We'll take it.

Thank you, pugs. Thank you, pugs. Merry Christmas. Let's go to Maddie on our $100. Hi, Maddie. Hello, Maddie. Hi. What did you think of our Chapel Rome performance?

If I'm going to be completely honest, Clint's version kind of made me hate the song. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm going to go with Brie if I'm going to be completely honest, Clint's version kind of made me hate the song. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I'm going to go with Brie if I'm going to be honest. I'll take it. So long as it made you hate the song and not the man. No, no, no. Yeah, okay, good. Well, then you're in the clear.

I'm in the clear. Thank you, Matty. Merry Christmas. That's on Chapel Row, not me. Exactly. That's her fault. It's going to be a whitewash, I think, but let's find out. Mitch is here.

Hi, Mitch. G'day, Mitch. Hey, guys. How you doing? Good, thanks. We want brutal honesty from you. Well, Brianna, were you by chance like one of those theatre kids? Mate, I was a drama kid through and through.

Did you grow up on the stage? Because you have some notes there that I just did not know you had in you. And, Clint, you should probably never do that again. Well, Mitch, I actually grew up in the theatre, too. Did that not come through in my performance? Really? Yeah. Yeah, I was in Guys and that again. Well, Mitch, I actually grew up in the theatre too. Did that not come through in my performance? Really? Yeah. Yeah, I was in Guys and Dolls.

I was giving more thespian, apparently. Oh, is that what you are? You have my vote. Thank you, Mitch. Thank you, Mitch. Merry Christmas. Thank you, mate. Can she get the sweep?

Ollie's here. Hi, Ollie. Hello, Ollie. Hello. Just give it to us, Ollie. What's it going to be, Brie or Clint? Well, I'm going to have to say Brie. Spectrical, operatic, dare I even say angelic.

Oh! Look, slightly criminal in some parts, but mostly amazing. Do I get your vote? Yes, my vote all the way. Thank you, Ollie. If you're so hard to poison, shoot another shot just to stop the feeling. You didn't win. You smashed her.

Have I found my niche? Opera. Have I been an opera singer all along? Is that the problem? We don't do pop music. That's the issue, yeah. Next week, Andrea Pacelli. Oh, my God. Thank you, everybody. Yeah. Next week, Andrea Bocelli. Oh, my God.

Thank you, everybody. Bree and Clint, we're going to do a birthday banger next. If you'd like to know the number one song on your 16th birthday, 0800 dial ZM right now. Bree and Clint. I was off yesterday to DJ my daughter's school disco. Yeah, did you get paid good? Primary school disco.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, nice. I got paid in sushi, actually. Oh, that's not bad. Wild. I've DJed a lot of parties over my long and pathetic DJ career. A lot of parties. But this is one of the most high energy events I've ever been a part of.

It was two discos. It was one for the juniors, so the year zeros to year threes. Okay. And then we had a half hour break to reset and decompress. Have a nap? Yeah, yeah. And then we went in for the year four, five, and sixes. Okay.

I reckon the year zero to threes, more consistent energy. Right. The year four to sixes, just more power. Just go hard for a short burst. And they know what they want, too. That's the thing. They're now at the age where they are making requests. The zero to threes were like, play Mummy Kissanax i was like i will but the year what were they requesting so

this is what i've done brie i've been out there canvassing the people and actually ross boss should pay me for this because this is good research for zm i now know what the kids want okay i'm interested to know what they're requesting and this is how music goes it goes to the kids first and then it comes through to us young adults, and then eventually it ends up on the ad breaks of 7 Sharp. Yeah, right. So this is at the cutting edge. Okay, so what is the things that are coming through?

Three songs in particular I got requested nonstop, and when I played them, the room absolutely went bonkers. So these were the energy bringers. Kids love KSI. This song in particular. They know the words. Interesting. This KSI song went mental.

Is it because he's a YouTuber and people follow him on YouTube? I think that's a big part of it, yeah. The other one which was huge, one of the other ones, which I was surprised about for people that young, Travis Scott. Really? And I had to get the Wi-Fi password because I didn't have the song ready to go.

I had to go and download it and I had to play Fiend by Travis Scott. How old are these kids? They are eight, nine, seven, eight and nine. And they're like, we want Fiend. You're like, what is that? One of them came over and goes, I want Fiend. Clean radio edit.

Least he's appropriate. This song, though. Goes off. Sorry, we don't say that. This song, it's lit. Oh, it's lit. Are we back to it's Lit, are we? Travis Scott voice, It's Lit.

It's Lit. But the biggest song by far. Yeah, what was it? The biggest song by a long shot. I had to play it twice. It nearly set the school gymnasium on fire. It is the Rosé Bruno Mars Apatit song. It's got real Jump Jam vibes, doesn't it?

This. This song here. Insane. Took the roof off. Say what you like about Bruno Mars, Brie. What? I love the guy. The kids love him.

This song's fun. It is. It is fun. I get it. I get it with this song. So there you go. Anyone who's been lumbered with the task of DJing a children's disco anytime soon, I've done the work for you.

Just get those three songs, put them on loop, check in Mummy Kissing Santa Claus, and you're good to go. There you go. You heard it. From the kids' leading DJ, Clinton Roberts. Yeah, the top DJ for people under 10 years old. He's taking bookings for bar mitzvahs, 12-year-olds' birthdays, anything. Brian Clint.

In your opinion, Clint, off the top of your brain, just first thing that comes to mind, who are the better drivers, men or women, go? Oh, me, but it's not gendered. I don't know. I don't know. You do know. I believe men are more confident drivers, but does that make them better drivers?

That's interesting you say that. Because I'll just say one last thing. I think a nervous driver can be as dangerous as an overconfident driver. Both are dangerous, in my opinion. You're right. Overconfident or nervous, both dangerous on the road. There's a new study by Continental Tres is the place that's done this study. Oh, yeah, good tyres, Continental Tyres.

Yeah, great tyres. And according to this study, some 77% of men believe that they're better than average drivers. Yeah, it's the same as that stat we got recently which said most men believe if they had to, they could land a plane. Similar to that. So this research shows that men are also statistically more prone to reckless driving behaviors, like speeding and driving under the influence, combined with confidence and risk-taking make for a concerning concoction on the roads, according to this survey. Yeah, I would agree. It then went into the generational-

But what about a woman who's doing her bloody lipstick in traffic? All right, calm down, Boomer. But this is the part I found quite interesting because they broke it down into generational differences, and I still think this is just the men that they've looked at here. So the Gen X men were the leaders in terms of how confident they felt they were on the road. So you're mid-40s to mid-50s blokes. Yeah. So the Gen X men, 81% rated their driving above average.

Yep. Gen Y wasn't far behind at 78%. So Gen Y, otherwise known as millennials. Oh, okay. Followed by the baby boomers, 75%. And then Gen Z were last at 73%. They're the least confident. But they've had the least time on the roads.

No, but I feel like that's where you want to be. Right. You want to be the least confident. You want to be a bit humble in your driving. You don't want to be like Oh yeah I'm a bloody great driver Yeah Bloody great driver

Something we did behind the scenes here Is Claudia has put us to the test She made us sit a road code level Driving test earlier in the show I need 10 questions And I don't know how you did And you don't know how I did No

But Claudia knows how we both did But we are representing our respective genders. You are representing all women on the road. Shit, that's a lot of pressure. And I'm representing all men on the road. So Claudia, once and for all, who are the better drivers, men or women?

Women. Wait, what did I get and what did they get? Brie got 10 out of 10. 10 out of he get? Bree got 10 out of 10. 10 out of 10? And Clint got 8 out of 10. In fairness, in fairness, I really took my time. Like I really made sure to read the questions.

I got frustrated with it. I thought it was stupid. That's why I failed my learners because I was like, oh, I just got to get this over. I did fail my learners. Also, there was a lot of left and right based stuff and I don't know left and right. So it was a challenge for me.

A lot of excuses. I got eight out of ten. And you are confident on the road? Very. It's crazy considering you don't know your left and right. Ella, you were telling us before the show that you were watching a behind the scenes. Is it a movie that Billie Eilish has done?

You know how celebrities take you behind the scenes of them getting ready for the Met Gala or come watch me get ready for my concert? Oh, yeah, yeah. It was kind of something like that. Well, like a vote of 21 questions or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right.

Oh, CBS Mornings, if you want to know exactly. But she popped a little exclusive look on her Instagram story. Who did? Billie Eilish. Billie Eilish. And it's really cool because she, obviously there's behind the scenes, we meet the band, and then there's a room which is her, quote,

like stress-free room. And what was in it? We have one of those at work. Do we? We do have a wellness room. I've never been in it. Have you? Nah.

That was more for breastfeeding, isn't it? No. Wellness rooms for a lot of things. Should we go check it out? Yeah, we should. Should we all go to the wellness room? Yeah, yeah. And make a lot of racket.

I don't want to go there if there's a whole lot of people breastfeeding in there. That would be weird. And if the four of us are there, it's not going to be very relaxing. Now we know where Clint goes at 2.30 before the show. Oh, I thought it was coffee. I've never been there before. Okay, so what is in Billie Eilish's wellness room? It's amazing.

It is, what are they called? What has she got? What calms Billie Eilish down? Chocolate fountain. No. Ice bath. No. Masseuse.

Massage chair. Is it a meditation corner? One of those sticky soldiers that you throw at the window and then it like jelly rolls down the window. Bonsai tree. I love jelly roll. How about you just have a listen? Okay. A few hours before showtime, Billie was scurrying around backstage

introducing us to her backup singers, her band, and taking us. Have you guys gone to the puppy room yet? To a room full of rescue dogs. Welcome to the puppy room. Who offer stress room full of rescue dogs. Welcome to the puppy room. Who offer stress relief. He adopted one the other day.

She adopted one the other day too. Oh my God. Amazing. I want to go on tour with Billie Eilish. I want to be Billie Eilish when I grow up. Ella, our show vegan. It's not very vegan of her to have a puppy room. Huh?

Making those dogs. She's not eating the puppies. No, I know, but they don't want to be there. Billie Eilish is literally vegan and this is amazing. No, I know. I know.

That's why I'm saying. What the heck are you on? She took them off the streets. She's making these dogs go on tour. Hang out with humans and interact with humans instead of being in a cage.

And what happens when the tour's over? Then they go back into the... I'm only half joking here, by the way. Did you not listen that all the people were adopting them? Yeah.

Did you not hear that bit? Did you zone out of that bit? Oh, do you go and adopt a dog from the... Well, you can. In that audio, she was saying that, like, three of them had been adopted. The crew had adopted them. I didn't hear that at all. Are you joking?

Did that get sick? He's just zoning out. Play the audio again. A few hours before showtime, Billy was scurrying around backstage, introducing us to her backup singers, her band, and taking us... Have you guys gone to the puppy room yet? ...to a room full of rescue dogs... Welcome to the puppy room.

...who offer stress relief. He adopted one the other day. She adopted one the other day, too. Wow. Welcome back. relief he adopted one the other day she adopted one the other day too wow welcome back are you how much do you think you really like here of what when we're talking yeah nothing like out of a hundred percent um i'm questioning everything now i would have said a hundred now 99 it's like i decided what I wanted to say halfway through the clip and then the rest was just noise. Accurate.

Well, there you go. Oh, wonderful. Wasn't that cute? Yeah, it was lovely. What would you guys have in your stress room? My stress room? Stress room. I think Clint would just have himself as well.

His pins and boons. Brie and Clint. We have himself as well. It's Benson Boone on Zed-In. Brie and Clint. We've got to go. Brie has got so many of her own book left to sign, it's not funny. You've got to stop offering this service for free. You should do it as an upsell. No, what am I going to charge? $32 for the book, $37 for a signed copy.

Yeah, I would charge. You're going to get RSI. I would charge, but I don't know how to spell properly, so there's spelling mistakes. And so I can't really charge for that. So it's an as is, where is. Anyway, good on you. But it's not even just signed.

They're all personalised. Bree's like, what's your mum's name? Where was she born? What's her favourite dessert? Oh, well, I mean, if I'm going to sign it, I may as well put some effort in. It's nice. It's just another reason why I never want to write a book.

I did one for you as well. Oh, yeah, thank you very much for that. So you're adding to my list for one of your Christmas presents. Not me. It was for a family member, okay? Yeah, still. Anyway, great Christmas gift. My book, Unapologetically Me.

Get it now from any good bookstores. All good bookstores. And that's our cue. Have a great weekend, everybody. We'll catch you back next week for the last week of the Brian Clint Show. Bye-bye. Bye. Zeddy's Brian Clint. On Insta, Facebook, week for the last week of the Brian Clint Show. Bye bye.
