The ZM Podcast Network. ZM's Bree and Clint, cheers to KFC. Grab KFC's crispy box for only $9.99. Tonight, we are going to witness the most anticipated show in the history of professional radio. ZM's Bree and Clint. Tullabalaba, everybody. Brie and Clint. We're just going through a few more potential movies that we could watch on our binge-a-thon this Thursday down in Tauranga. We've got our tracksuits organised today. Did you see that? I did see.

Nice comfy tracksuits to wear. Can't wait to wear a tracksuit for 24 hours. Bit concerned that my tracksuit is cream. Like I'm not the best at keeping my clothes clean. Yeah, neither. And I'm going to be having a lot of snacks. I'm being slob mode

for those 24 hours. And espresso martinis. Yeah, what time do we have the espresso martini? Do we have it at midnight? Or do we have it at like 1am? I think midnight's too early. Too early?

Too early to have it. You want it when you're in the trenches. And I reckon the trenches. 3, 4 a.m.? Yep. That'll be the absolute trenches. We've been going through a few more potential movies to watch too.

Breeze just brought up the film Deep Impact from 1998. You reckon that's a must watch? I don't know if it's a must watch. I'm just throwing up ideas over here. We're trying to fill the space category. Maybe people listening could help us with suggestions for space movies. Because The Martian, which is a relatively newer film, with Matt Damon, fantastic space movie.

He eats his own poo, eh? He does. Well, he doesn't eat the poo. He uses it as fertiliser. Oh, to grow potatoes. Poo-tatoes. Oh, I can tell you what it's about. I haven't seen it.

I have seen, just if you're texting them, I have seen Gravity and I have seen Armageddon. Interstellar. A lot of people texting in Interstellar. Oh, and I've seen Interstellar. You've seen it. Okay, so that takes it off the list. Yeah, so space movies.

Armageddon, someone's texting through. Clint has seen that as well, so it can't be on the list. Ridiculous film. Yeah. What? Armageddon. It would have been way easier. It would have been way easier to teach astronauts how to drill than to teach offshore drillers how to be astronauts.

I mean, yes and no. We don't know much about the drilling industry. Could be quite difficult. Yeah, but you can text your suggestions in. We're also hoping to get a suggestion from movie buff and massive nerd Vaughn Smith on the show this afternoon. Yes.

He's going to join us and tell us what movie we should watch from the nerd realm. I feel like Vaughn Smith, King of the Nerds, is going to be definitely on our ass to watch a Star Wars film. As long as it's not Pokemon. I love Pokemon. Have you never seen the Pokemon movie? No.

It's fantastic. So we'll talk to him and lots of other stuff too. So stick with us. If you go and suggest a movie for us to watch at ZM Online you could win a 55 inch Samsung TV. Yes. All you have to do is suggest a movie for us to watch even if it doesn't get picked. You're in the draw to win that amazing 55 inch Samsung TV. Yes, all you have to do is suggest a movie for us to watch even if it doesn't get picked. You're in the draw to win that amazing 55

inch Samsung TV. Thanks Samsung. The new era of AI TVs is here. Right now let's play tradie vs lady. Alright, a tradie and a lady going head to head. $50 cash up for grabs thanks to KFC. If you want to play 0800 dial ZM

right now. Just to repeat that $50 is is up for grab-a-thus. Grab-a-thus. I ran out of breath. I've got to have a talk. Brie and Clint. Our space movies going head-to-head, we decided. Yeah, Deep Impact versus The Martian. Yeah.

And there's also a gangster movie poll going up as well. So you can go to our Instagram, at Brian Clint, if you want to have your say. A little poll there that you can vote on. You can click through to suggest a movie and win that Samsung TV. Also, Happy Gilmore versus 50 First Dates. Or it could be Happy Gilmore versus Billy Madison. Someone messaged me to say...

You haven't seen any of them. No. I've seen The Waterboy, though. Someone messaged me today and said... haven't seen any of them. No. I've seen the water boy, though. Someone messaged me today and said. The water boy, I would say. Look. Yeah, I've seen it. Yeah.

I wish you had seen one of the other ones. Someone said because I hadn't seen Billy, Happy Gilmore, that I should be removed from the group chat. I think it was Billy Madison. You're getting confused. Billy Madison isn't the golf one. Well, I haven't seen either of them. I feel like you have to see Happy Gilmore.

We'll put it on the list then. All right. We'll watch it on Thursday. Brian Clint. It's Tradie versus Lady. Three, two, one, let's go. But first, there is business to attend to And that is the tradies versus the ladies

The tradies taking the lead yesterday They're on 38, the ladies on 37 Our lady's from Te Awamotu, she is 34 years old And she has broken five different bones Welcome to the show, Jamie Hi Jamie Hi What bones are we talking?

I've broken all the bones on my leg, both my wrist and my finger. What were you doing? They're all different accidents. You sound very clumsy. You sound very fragile. You're taking on our tradie today who is calling from Auckland. He's 30 and he once ran over a family of ducks when he was 18.

That's your fun fact. That's your fun fact, Jason. Yeah, I could... Good afternoon, guys. I couldn't think of anything else. But before I get started on that story,

We have to celebrate, yeah. Here he is, Jason, the duck family killer. Look, what I was doing, I was late at night and I didn't see them, but I was too busy jamming out to Nickelback. So can you explain me? Jase. You know what? I forgive you.

Jason, Jason, you know me. Not everyone loves Nickelback, but you've got to love... Not everyone loves ducks either, so... Jason, I'm a Nickelbacker from way back, so I will forgive you, although I still feel very sad about the ducks. We'll let it slide. I was devastated.

Yeah, I bet. We'll let it slide only because it's duck hunting season right now. No! Ducks are the best bird. They're the cutest out of all of them. Okay, Jason, your buzzer is tradie. Jamie, you're our lady. The first one of you to get three correct answers gets 50 bucks,

All right. Thank you. See you, guys. Brie and Clint. Clint, they're talking about us again. Are they? Us millennials. Leave us alone, okay?

But this one's for you. We're very tired and our lower back hurts. We are quite tired and we're low on vitamin D, all right? Yeah, our no-show socks are cutting off the circulation to our toes. And C, as a matter of fact, both. Yeah, we're vitamin deficient. We are. You know why?

Because we are the ones who bought vitamin water and there's no vitamins in it, allegedly. How did we think that pink water had the vitamins that we need? Oh, we're so dumb. It was delicious though, wasn't it? Yeah. It was yum. Even if it was a placebo.

I actually think this one is fair enough. People are talking about how the millennials can't make big purchases on their phone. Oh my God, that is so true. They have to go to big screen. Yeah. I like to call it, in my words, for the big purchases, I need big screen, big internet. Correct, big internet.

Big screen, big internet is where it's at. Big keyboard. Big keyboard. There's a radio host over in the UK who has spoken out about it. Millennials, why can we not make big purchases on our phones? Takeaway clothes, shoes, within reason, yeah. But a plane ticket

on your phone? That's a laptop job. You can't book a holiday on your phone. We've got to get the laptop out. We cannot make a big or significant purchase on the phone. No.

No way. No. No. I also can't really do an important email on my phone. Neither. Like if it doesn't matter, I can reply on my phone. It seems a bit risky. If it's like a work email that matters, I have to do it on the laptop.

It's a laptop job. It has to be on the laptop. Yeah, yeah. I thought we could go through a few different things. Producers, we've got another millennial out there in Claudia in a Gen Z. We'll go through a few things and then you guys tell me whether it's a phone or a laptop purchase. The first one, flights. No, laptop.

Laptop. I would do it on a phone. Depends where. Actually, domestic, I can do it on my phone. International's got to be on a laptop. Oh, yeah. Because there's so many options and you want to make sure you're getting the cheapest deal. No, you're living recklessly.

That's a laptop job. The Air New Zealand app is very easy and very good if you're booking domestic flights. I don't care. I don't care. I even struggle adding a bag on my phone. Is it too scary? Yes. What if I do it wrong? Yeah. Yeah. struggle adding a bag on my phone. Is it too scary? Yes. What if I do it wrong?

Yeah. Yeah. You do need to get it right as well. It's not that I don't know how to work my phone. I do. It's just the gravitas of the purchase is too big. You know? I mean, not if you're just flying to Nelson.

Yeah, well, have you seen the price to fly to Nelson recently? Anyway, anyway. Okay, next one. What about accommodation? If you're booking accommodation? No way, stupid. I would do that on a phone. Got to be on the laptop.

Laptop. Has to be a laptop. How can you see all the options on booking.com? Yeah. If you're on... You zoom out on the map. What? You use your little fingies and pinch and zoom out.

Little pinch. Yeah. Little pinch. Little pinch. The screen's not big enough. I need to see what the amenities are like. Even if I turn the phone sideways. Oh, don't do that.

Ew, yeah, no. Accommodation 100% happens on the laptop. Yeah, it's on the laptop. What about a car? Renting a car? Buying a car? Buying a car. I bought my car but called them to ask questions.

But you bought it off the internet. But I found it on my phone and then called them. No, we're not at the stage where we buy cars on the internet. Are we? Some people are. I know you buy a Tesla on the internet, but you still have to go into the shop and they do it for you, don't you? My friend, I'm pretty sure.

You bought a new car. A new car. Well, that's not part of the question. My friend ordered a Tesla on her phone. What? Yeah. That's wild. You can do everything these days. Isn't it? I mean, it took another nine months to get here, but I was like, you've been

scammed. I've only recently stopped buying my cars in cash, you know? What? A car? Yeah. Well, now that I'm not buying cars that cost like $5,000 or $6,000, I'm not getting out. You know, when cars... Oh, yeah.

You took cash. That's how you bought every car. Like in a briefcase. No, just in an envelope. In a briefcase. It's a duffel bag. You go on the bus and then you have your little... Have you ever seen $5,000?

No. You put it in a brown paper bag like a normal person. Nice. What about... We're talking about things that you would never buy on your phone, by the way. What about like a couch? No. I would.

Yep. Nah, that's a laptop slash going in. But it depends on what site. Like I would be buying a couch on Facebook Marketplace. Is it a $1 Facebook Marketplace purchase? Oh, okay. Yeah, but if it is like fancy. If I'm getting a nice new couch, I need to scroll through the pictures.

I need to have them on the big screen, on the big laptop. It's laptop. Yeah. Okay, here's a question. Are you buying a laptop off your phone or your laptop? Oh, it's a Catch-22. It's a chicken and egg situation. I'll have to buy it on the work computer or I'll have to go around to mum's house.

There's no way I'm buying a laptop on my phone. No way. Are you buying a phone on your phone? No. No. It's a laptop job. Yeah, it's a laptop job. It's got to be laptop.

You think we're being silly. I'm not being silly. Yeah, I think you're being silly. No, I'm not being silly. If I was buying a new phone. Because you need the ability to compare. Yes. I need to look at like 15 different sites.

You need the full screen where you're comparing the different phones. That's how you do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we've established. Can someone tell me how to easily get, so I found the purchase on my phone. How do I easily get it onto my laptop without having to send myself the link on Facebook Messenger and then go and click on the link?

You just do that. Is that the way to do it? Guys, someone just texted through and they said, I don't have a laptop and I've booked six international trips and a car on my phone. All a success. I'm a millennial. God, you've evolved.

Yeah, that's... You've evolved. Yeah, that's... We need to get that one and we need to... Clone them. Well, we need to probably... Get them to teach us. We need to probably kill them so we can cut them up and study them.

That's true. Yeah, yeah. For the greater good, you know? That's all right. We'll tell them to book it in through their phone. That's Jay-Z, Rihanna and Kanye. Run this town. Do we have the theme song to Malcolm in the Middle in the system?

Yeah, we will. Because I feel like it would be quite fitting for this next experimental game, which we were having a conversation the other day on air about eldest, middle and youngest children. And I just feel like we should experiment with a game where i reckon we can tell if someone is a eldest middle or a youngest kid in their family okay so essentially we need some people to play so we need anyone it doesn't matter if you're eldest middle or youngest but let's just clarify at the top here that if there's if you have an older sibling and then there's like

three kids in the middle and then a youngest that means you're a middle. You're middle. You're middle. If you're not eldest or youngest, you're middle. You're middle. Yeah, okay. You're in the middle. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If you want to do that we need a couple people on 0800 DALS.im like right now to call that right now. Yeah, right now. Right now. Okay. So they're calling. Essentially. How do we

figure it out? I reckon you can ask a question. I'll ask a question. And based off if we ask the right questions, we will guess if they're eldest, middle or youngest. Okay. Because I mean, and I think we've got a good spread because you're the eldest in your family. Correct.

I'm clearly the middle. So I feel like, and I mean Ella is the eldest, Claudia is the middle. We have no youngest on this show. We've got no youngest on our show. So that's where we might slip up. But I know what youngest energy looks like. Says the eldest. I do. I look down on them.

Okay. Oh, there's heaps of people that want to play. Do we have a bit of Malcolm in the middle? We did. We did? Oh, Claudia said no. No. Okay, don't worry about it. Typical middle child. Let's get Katie on. Hi, Katie. Hi, Katie. Kia ora. Okay, Katie. My first question for you is when you go out to eat at a restaurant, do you like to have your own meal or do you like to share

food? My own meal or do you like to share food? My own meal, 100%. Ooh, okay. Katie, when you got your first car, was it your car or did you have to share it? I had to buy my own car. You had to buy your own car. Yeah. Oh, it's giving middle energy. Yeah.

It's giving real middle energy. I would agree with that. I'm going to say, let's lock it in. Katie, are you the middle child? I am. You knew it! Yeah. It was the buy my own car thing that got me.

Go on, Katie. Yeah, my brother got one straight from his grandmother. Katie, isn't it BS being the middle child? And then the youngest would have got like a hand-me-down car as well or something like that, eh? Yeah. Yeah, from your grandfather. Can I just say, I stand? Yep. Katie. Yeah, from your grandfather. Yep, yep.

Can I just say, I stand with you, Katie. Yeah. You're so hard done by you middle children. We really are. Apparently. Look, Claudia's nodding. May's here. Hi, May.

Hi, May. Hi, May. Hi, May. May, are you there? May, are you there? May. May. We'll put May on hold.

We'll come back to May. Let's go to, no, that's May again. Let's put May back on hold and let's go to Ezra. Hi, Ezra. Hi, Ezra. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. Ezra, question for you.

Did you have your own TV at any point during your childhood or teenagehood in your own room? No. No. Did you ever have your own room? No. No. Did you ever have your own room? Yes. Yes. Okay.

Oh, it's give it. Okay, you ask a question now. Because the eldest child often has their own room and the youngest child often has their own room when the other siblings have moved out. And a TV. And there's enough room for them. I would say youngest definitely would have a TV in their room. I can answer as a middle child as well then.

I'm tossing up between eldest and middle. Oh, what does my gut say? Did you ask a question? Yeah, I said, did you ever have your own room? And he said no. He never had his own room. Yeah. Oh, the eldest would.

So it's got to be middle. It's got to be middle. Because eldest and youngest would always at some point have had their own room. You asked if I had my own room. I had my own room. You asked if I had my own room. I had my own room. Oh, you did have your own room. It's eldest. It's eldest.

Okay, are you the eldest, Ezra? Yes, I am. I knew it. That's what my gut said. Oh, we're so good at this. All right. Thanks, Ezra. We appreciate it.

Let's go to Kayla. Hi, Kayla. Hi, Kayla. Hello. Oh, it's giving youngest. It's giving youngest. It's youngest. Don't look it in your bar. No, it's go to Kayla. Hi, Kayla. Hi, Kayla. Hello. Oh, it's giving youngest. It's giving youngest. It's youngest. Don't look it in your bar.

No, it's youngest. Okay, let's ask her questions, but it's giving youngest. She literally just said hello. Okay. Kayla, what did you want to be growing up and what are you doing now? I wanted to be a teacher, but I'm a compliance officer now. Okay. Okay.

Interesting. Okay. Oh, okay. Interesting. Okay. Ooh. This is a two-part question. Did you ever sleep in bunk beds growing up? Yes. Which bunk did you get first? Top. Oh.

It's not youngest then. It's not youngest. It's not youngest. Always top or did you start on the bottom and graduate to top? Always top. Always top. Always top. Oh, it's giving oldest. It's middle or oldest Always top or did you start on the bottom and graduate to top? Always top. Always top. Oh, it's giving oldest. It's middle or oldest. I'm going to say... Actually, I'm the youngest.

Oh, no! We should have stuck with that. We knew it. We should have listened to her. We should have listened to her. As soon as you came on, I knew you were the youngest. Wait a second. Kayla, how are you the youngest and you're scoring the top bunk? I was my dad's little girl, so it wouldn't make me have what I wanted. You're such, you are so the youngest.

You are so the youngest. Kayla, you spoil little brat. Kayla loves it. She's like, that's me. Thanks, Kayla. If we had listened to our gut, we would have got three from three. We could have. Unfortunately.

The game checks out. It does. We're going to do it again. Next, we are locking in our movies for our Blockbuster Binge-a-thon. Vaughan Smith, movie aficionado and king of the nerds, will give us our nerd film that we must watch next at ZM. Mission, acquire ZM's night show host. Case file number 69.

Nice. 22 years young, from Marrensville. Milks cows in her spare time. Can spin an okay yard. Target acquired. Brooke, your mission if you choose to accept it. Host ZM's Late Show. Okay.

I might be a bit late. I've got to shower. Bree and Clint. It's time to make some hard decisions about the 24-hour Blockbuster Binge-a-thon. So we need to go straight to the top. A man who knows his stuff, king of the nerds, please welcome to the show, Vaughan Smith. Yes, ahoy hoy. Ahoy hoy to all. Vaughan.

Star Wars poster boy. We need your help. Mr. Pokemon, we just thought we would come to you to tick this box off. Yes. Yeah. I mean, it's got to be a Star Wars film. You've got plenty to choose from. Does it?

Does it need to be a Star Wars film? That's the thing. Empire Strikes Back is widely regarded as the best of the Star Wars movies in the Skywalker saga. But that's the second. Well, actually, it's the fifth. You've got to start with the pre cause. You've got to do all three of them.

Of course you're probably going to do Rogue One. No, no, no. Absolutely not. It's a 24 hour binge-a-thon, not a 24 day marathon. Do you honestly think, do you honestly objectively think that Star Wars is, if I could only watch 24 hours

worth of movies and these are the movies to set me up for the rest of my life, does Star Wars go on that list? Absolutely. Why? Absolutely. Well, name any other movie that came out in like 1977 that still holds such a- He's got a point.

He's got a point. It's kind of pop culture. It kind of kick-started a multi-billion dollar movie franchise and then there's the toys and there's everything. Okay. It's got to be in there. They've even got their own Lego. I mean...

Well, let me... A lot of Lego. A lot of Lego. That's the mark of a good movie. Let me throw this spanner in the works. I've seen the one where Anakin does the pod racing with Jar Jar Binks. Okay. And I've seen the one where Luke does the pod racing with Jar Jar Binks. Okay. And I've seen the one where Luke gets his arm cut off.

Okay, so you've seen Phantom Menace, which is the first in the sequel in the Skywalker saga. Yeah. And you've seen Empire Strikes Back, which is the fifth. Yeah. Ooh, Empire Strikes Back is good. If you've got to go one, I probably wouldn't go too heavy on the prequels. I Knew Hope's really good.

I love how much thought is going into this, and this is why we asked you. If you have to make a decision right here, right now, Vaughn, out of all the Star Wars movies, what is it? Return of the Jedi. There it is. Oh, Return of the Jedi. There it is. Oh, Return of the Jedi. Is that the one with the Ewoks in it? Yeah. It is.

And they go racing through on the flying motorbikes through the forest. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. I've never seen it, but I know it. He can tell you what it's about. You've seen Empire Strikes Back. So Return of the Jedi is the kind of culmination of all of that story. So yeah.

There you go. I reckon we lock it in. I've never seen it either, so. You've never seen a single Star Wars movie. Don't tell Vorn that. Don't say that

in front of Vorn. Well, you better do your homework because it's not going to make a lot of sense to you without a good thorough assessment. That's what I was

worried about, Vorn. I was very worried about that. Vorn Smith, thank you very much. Thank you, Vorn. Awesome. Thanks, guys. All good. It's brought to you by about, Vaughn. I was very worried about that. Vaughn Smith, thank you very much. Thank you, Vaughn. Awesome, thanks, guys. All good.

It's brought to you by Samsung, by the way. The new era in AI TVs is here now. If you go and suggest a movie at ZM Online, you could win a 55-inch Samsung TV. Can I please dress up as Princess Leia for that movie if we're watching it? I saw you more as a Chewie. Excuse you, I could rock the gold bikini.

Put my hair in those little buns. Okay, you want to wear that bikini? You can wear that. Nah, it'll be pretty cold actually. New research out says Gen Z's need to answer the phone, man. You guys need to pick up the phone. Just answer it. Not a big deal.

You're not going to die. The research out this week found that a quarter of people aged 18 to 34 have never answered the phone. Ever. They've never answered. What? A quarter of people aged 18 to 34 have never answered a phone call. That's the most ridiculous stat I've ever heard.

That is not true. Well, I mean, they can't really. Never. They've never answered the phone. A quarter of people aged between 18 and 34 have never answered the phone. What a load of BS. About 70% said that they preferred to deal with things by text. 70% of all people aged 18 to 34, not just the ones who haven't answered the phone.

And it's not just Gen Zers. These days, a quarter of all mobile phone users make less than five phone calls a month. That's nothing. It's nothing. That's not ordering their fish and chips. That's not calling the pharmacy to get your prescription. That's not... How do you go through life?

Isn't it just easier to pick up the phone? Well, this is what these people are saying. They're saying, no, it just easier to pick up the phone? Well, this is what these people are saying. They're saying, no, it's easier to text. But dealing with things over text, this is according to this research, or via a chatbot on a website. Oh, I hate chatbots. There is nothing I hate more than a website chatbot.

Oh! Not as good as a real person. Oh, it's the most infuriating thing in the world. They can never answer your question. No, it never works. If you go off, they take ages to reply to you. And if you go off that tab for 15 seconds. Like, where are you? I've got the answers.

Where are you? You're not here. Okay, bye. I'm ending this. I'm ending this conversation. I was gone for two seconds. You're a robot. You wait for me.

Anyway. I have to agree. Sorry, that's a bit of personal rage coming out. The research said that often arrangements made over a long text exchange could have been sorted with one quick phone call. Yeah, no crap. Hey, do you want to meet up for dinner tonight? That sounds awesome.

Where should we go? Oh, I don't really know anywhere good. Do you? There's an Italian place by me. Sounds good. See you at seven? Perfect. Bye.

I have to, yeah, you're right. That text conversation would have taken about 20 minutes. But I will argue for the Gen Zers here, where sometimes you're just not in the mood to talk on the phone. And I have those moods. Don't roll your eyes at me. No. Sometimes I'm overwhelmed and anxious and don't feel like talking to, you know.

A phone call is going to tip you over the edge. Oh, I just don't feel like talking to someone I don't know. So I don't want to answer the phone and have to make conversation. I always wonder with these things because it's very easy to target a particular generation. And I feel like Gen Z are the whipping generation for a lot of things at the moment. Thought we could test it, the theory that Gen Zs don't answer their phone. I want to call some Gen Zs, see if they answer. We've got a bunch of Gen Zs who work here at ZM.

Okay. And we've loaded up some of their phone numbers. Claudia, could you please connect us to Katie from the ZM office? And we'll see if she is willing to answer her phone this afternoon. Representing Gen Zs this afternoon. All right, Katie, can you answer the phone? Because if she answers, this is all BS. It's ringing.

She not answering. She's not answering. Sure don't you breach, Caitlin. Sorry, Connor. She's letting the team down. Okay, that's one for the research. Let's try another one. You've got to go get Amelia.

Let's go Pixie. Can we go Pixie? Oh, Pixie, yeah. Pixie's Gen Z. Let's see if Pixie's willing to answer the phone as a Gen Z. And she's arguably very Gen Z. Technically, technically they should be listening to the radio in the office right now. Oh, I can see her. She's picked up the phone.

She's looking at it. Is she not even going to answer it? She's looking at it. She knows we're calling her and she's not even going to answer it. That's because she knows she'll be on the radio. She's looking directly at us. Hi, Pixie. Hello.

Did you know that it was us calling you because you're listening to the radio right now? No. Oh, what a load of BS. that it was us calling you because you're listening to the radio right now? No. Oh, what a load of BS. Pixie, is this the first time you've ever answered the phone? No, no, no. It was behind my laptop.

I didn't see it, but I always answer the phone. Do you? You're a phone answerer. I'm a phone answerer. Yeah. Pixie gives definite millennial vibes, I must say. She's like, that's the meanest thing you've ever said to me. This experiment is obsolete because they can all see us in the studio trying to call them.

There's Gary, he's waving. Now they're all listening. Okay, I can see who's not there. And this is what we'll use as a test case. Yeah, who's not there? Let's go, because we're picking on Gen Z. Yes. Let's call a Gen X.

Let's call our Gen X, Ross Boss. You know that Ross. And see if he's willing to answer the phone. Maybe Gen X are the problem in this situation. Claudia, connect the call. In the six plus years we have worked here, he has never answered one of our calls. Well. If he answers right now. This is the time to answer.

I'm going to eat my own hat. Hello? Hello. Hello? Hello? Hello? Is this Ross Boss or a chatbot? I was just talking to chat GPT actually. You've interrupted the conversation.

Were you listening to the radio? No, I wasn't. I was just before. Oh, BS. He was listening. All right. Thanks, Gen X.

I mean, thanks, Russ Boss. We appreciate it. I don't know what you're talking about. No, no, it's all good. You've done your bit. He's trying to play the role. That is probably the first time he's answered our phone call. He was listening to the radio, Jim.

Oh, I have no idea what you're talking about. I was definitely not listening. We've proved nothing. We've proved nothing. We've proved nothing. Which is the tagline for our show, to be honest. Bree and Clint. And Houdini.

That song just makes me feel good. Every time I hear it, still. Everything about Dua Lipa. Do you get that vibe? Makes me feel great. Yeah. She's awesome. hear it still. Everything about Dua Lipa. Do you get that vibe? Makes me feel great. She's awesome. Like at the gym, like when that comes on, I am a machine.

And then I go straight back to the normal me. Which isn't the best. Hey, is anyone still watching the Kardashians? Producers? Anyone? Show of hands? My wife does. Yep. Still watching? We fire up the Disney Plus subscription. To watch the Kardashians? Producers? Anyone? Show of hands? My wife does. Yep. Still watching? We fire up the Disney Plus subscription.

To watch The Kardashians? When The Kardashian comes out, yeah. The latest season, season five, is premiering on Disney Plus on May 23rd, so not too far away. So you're going to have to fire up that Disney Plus. The trailer for the latest season has come out. Okay. Which it's what you'd expect, all the latest dramas.

They're all looking very plastic surgery. Are they? Well, I mean, that sounds judgmental, but they just, I feel like. Have they had some panel beating done between seasons? They've had a bit of panel beating and there's quite a dramatic part at the end of the trailer where Kris Kardashian, or Kris Jenner, sorry, talks about how they've found a small tumour. It's very dramatic.

There's one part in it where they talk about what success looks like to them. I've grabbed the piece of audio here. Take a listen. Everyone just has a different idea of what success is. My actress era. Running a business, back and forth from meetings, and then law school. Being a working mom. It's

really hard. And they just talk about what success looks like to them. Right. Okay. So success to Kim Kardashian. I can tell you are not here for it. I just don't, I don. I just don't enjoy them. I'm trying not to be the guy who hates on things for hating's sake. Because I don't think I am that person.

But I've tried. I've tried. I've tried. They do some all right stuff. Kim's been doing some good stuff with becoming a lawyer. You know, with becoming a lawyer and that. I just hate the idea of the Kardashians being put up as people like... They're so relatable. They're the least relatable group of people on the entire planet.

I mean, that's fair. Yeah. I thought... They have the same problems as us. I thought we could make it relatable, though, where they talk about what success looks like to them and they're talking about being an actress... Yeah...going to law school, all those type of things, where they talk about what success looks like to them and they're talking about being an actress,

going to law school, all those type of things. And we could discuss what success looks like to us. Sure. You know? And I'm sure it looks quite different. I'm sure it would look very different. So let's go around the room and you can text through what success looks like to you. Sure, sure.

I'll kick it off. What success looks like to me? Changing my sleeping position from my stomach to my back. That is success. Well, it would be success. You can't do it. I've been going through some changes lately. Have you?

Where I've actually tried. Did you get the knee pillow like I told you? No, but I have successfully kind of changed. Now I'm like a side to back sleeper. And that's what success looks like to you. And that's what success looks like to me. I like it. Yeah, what about for you?

Well, I've got kids. Okay. So for me, and this is not joking and this is not looking for sympathy. This is truly what success looks like for me. Yep. I sleep in until 7am. Success. If I can get to 7am and like the sun is up, if I can wake up when the sun is up and I

haven't been woken up by kids yet. I like it. Success. Set the bar low. Either that or like making a block of Whittaker's last more than two nights. That is difficult. If we have the same block of Whittakers on the third night, that's what success looks like to me.

We don't want to make the success unachievable. True, we're trying to be relatable. Someone on the text machine just says, success to me is making it to home from work without shitting my pants. Yeah, and yeah, that's... I like it. I like it. I'd love to know if today is a successful or unsuccessful day

Was today successful at all? It's not over yet Are you texting us from the drive? Mine is a three parter Part one, meal prepping the night before your lunch Part two, remembering to bring it to work Part three, still feeling like eating it when lunchtime rolls around

That is real success. Real success. Yep. Ella, what does success look like to you? This hits deep. Not leaving an event before 9pm. That's success. Yep.

She's notorious. Yeah. I'm out of here. If it's a good event, then, you know, you need to stay. Yeah. Let's keep rolling through some of these. Getting a double yoga. What? Oh, the egg. Yeah, right rolling through some of these. Getting a double yoker.

Oh, come on! I feel like I can take on the world when I get a double yoker. I haven't seen a double yoker in years. That's what I mean. Someone texted, success looks like successfully getting freaky with the miso. That is success. Someone says

success looks like having a centre console in my car full of coins. Nice. Oh, yes. Yeah. Hell yeah. I never have that anymore. That is success.

Someone said success is making it through the day sober. We don't know what journey they're on. It might not be as grim as it seems. Producer Ella? Success is when you recommend someone a movie that you really like and they actually like it. Or a TV show. That's even better.

Someone watches the TV show that you said that they would like. I feel that deeply. That is success. I love this text. It says, this is probably the pinnacle of success, I reckon, on the text machine. They said, success to me is when you go to the toilet and you notice that there's

no toilet paper before you start going. That is success. Success is leaving Kmart or the supermarket with just what was on your list and nothing else. Yeah. Or is that a failure?

That is a high bar. I think that is just self-control, really. You've got to go in with the blinkers. That's a high bar of failure. I think that is just self-control, really. You've got to go in with the blinkers. That's online shopping. That's what that is. Bree and Clint. Cole. It's time, thank you.

Sorry, missed it. I was replying to Claudia who sent me something that we're very gutted that we missed. A great event. It was an event. You know when you see an event and it's too late and it's past and you're like, God, would love to have gone to that.

Would have thrived. Is it something to do with RuPaul's Drag Race? Not far off. Not far off. Not far off. No. Not far off. Okay, this is Let's Get Classical.

We guess pop songs in classical style, and the tradition currently is that you and I, Brie, team up to take on producer Ella. Yes, we do. Who's weirdly good at this? Yeah, I am. Yeah. Do you take offense to that?

No way. When he says, who's weirdly good at this? No, because it is a weird thing to be good at, but we all have our weird niches, and I'll take it. She only found out who Ricky Martin was about two weeks ago, and yet this game, this game, she has in the bag. You still don't know who Enrique Anglesias is.

No, that's Ricky Martin. Perfect. If Ella wins, someone who's text Ella in will get free KFC, and if Brie and I win, someone who texts us will win. Claudia, let's do this. Hello. So yeah, like you said, these are pop songs turned classical.

You guys are working together. Ella, you're on your own for this, but you'll be fine. Just buzz in with your name. I need the artist and the name of the song. Got it. Don't hum it if you've already buzzed in. Yeah, yeah. Gotcha.

We're all on board. We all know the rules. Is there any themes? Nah, no theme today. No theme. Gone in 60 seconds. What's happening over there? Fast and the Furious.

Let's jump into the first one. Number seven. Clint. Clint. Oh, that was quick from you. I hope you're right. Have you got it? That song there is...

Come on. Oh, he's stalling. Oh, no. Give him room. Give him room. Oh, no. One. Oh, that's outcast and hey-ya. Yeah, okay. I him room. Give him room. Oh, no. One. Oh, that's outcast and hi-yah.

Yeah, okay. I'll give it to you. Yes. All right, all right. Hi-yah. And I will admit I pushed the boundaries of... That was a very generous buzzer. Timing there.

He didn't hum, though. No, he didn't. There was no humming. I knew that Ella didn't have it, so I was like, I'll give you a chance. Yeah, sure. Fair. I would have maybe known that. Give me a minute.

Okay, that is one point for Brie and Clint. Do you want another one? Yeah. Here we go. Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Ella, Hence Myself, Selena Gomez. Yes!

I'm in a good but way wrong one too. Hey, well done. Cool, calm, collective. Well done. That was good. I had nothing. I was close. It was coming, but nowhere near as close as you, Ella.

Well, we're all tied up. This is for the win. Everyone stay calm. This is Bree's one. This is Bree's one. Oh, no. Okay, this is for the win. Didn't you get two last week? I won by myself.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know how that happens. Okay. Good luck. Ella obsessed Olivia Rodrigo. Gosh, she's done it. Christ on a bike. God damn it.

That song came out like 45 seconds ago, okay? Yeah, where have you been? Wow, that feels good. Makes me want a hot dog real bad. That was a fair victory. She played well and she deserves the win.

That means Emma has scored 50 KFC chicken dollars. Well done, Em. Nice work. Thank you very much. Yes, Emma! Let's go! Got to back the producer.

Love you. Can you maybe back us next week? We're due. I'll think about it. That's a no. That's a no. Brie and Clint. We're kicking off our 24-hour blockbuster binge-a-thon on Thursday. Brie and Clint. We're kicking off our 24-hour blockbuster binge-a-thon on Thursday.

Brie and Clint's 24-hour blockbuster binge-a-thon. Clint has not seen pretty much anything. He's seen none of the movies, so we've decided to pack it all into a 24-hour time period and we need to collate the best list possible. Someone called me yesterday and they were passionate. They had a lot of suggestions. They were quite hurt that we haven't asked them already.

Right. And that person was you, Mama Di. Hi, Mum. Absolutely. I'm as passionate as anything about these movies, that's for sure. Are you a movie buff? You've got a movie room at your house, don't you? Oh, absolutely, Clint.

It's absolute godsend for me. Are you a cinephile? Oh, absolutely. I think that's where I get it from, actually, because I love movies, and I think I get it from you, Mum. You're very passionate. You've seen a lot of films, and she calls me yesterday, and she said, I think you need a gangster film in there.

Oh, I love that. And it needs to be between these three films, and all three films she suggested I've seen. They're amazing, and I think you're spot on, Mum. So let's talk gangster films. What are the three movies you're putting up? Okay. The Departed.

Okay. American Gangster. Yes. And The Untouchables. Right. Okay, I can confirm I've seen none of them. Here's a little bit of The Departed. Hey, what do you think?

You can pop somebody and there's a special card to play? That guy Jimmy Vags, whose jaw you broke, happens to work undercover for the Boston Police Department. I'm going fucking nuts man. I can't be someone else every day. It's been a year of this. We've loaded these clips at pace. It's a gangster movie. What did you expect? Yeah. That was sounding like Mark Wahlberg. Was that

Mark Wahlberg? It's Mark Wahlberg. Okay, American Gangster. The most important thing in business is honesty. Integrity. Hard work. Family. Never forgetting where we came from. Is that Denzel?

Such a good movie. Absolutely. God, this makes me want to watch all these movies, Mum. And this is The Untouchables. What am I? What draws my admiration? What is that which gives me joy? Damn, it's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. What draws my admiration? What is that which gives me joy? Dance.

Music. Baseball. So good. And of course... The one and only Robert De Niro. Robert De Niro, that's the name I was looking for. It's a young Robert De Niro too. I'm so into this.

I'm deep into... The TV show that I'm watching at the moment is The Sopranos. And so this is right in there. It's right in that mode, Mum and I. Right in the pocket. Yeah. We need to make a decision because we don't have time to watch all of them. So, Mum, between the three, you'll kick us off.

What movie for the gangster film are we picking out of those three? Well, in my opinion, they're all fantastic and he'll have to watch the other two. So I'm going with Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jack Nicholson, Mark Wahlberg, Martin Sheen, Alec Baldwin in The Departed. What a cast. It's a huge cast. Okay, The Departed. Okay, locking in your vote.

Four Academy Awards. Okay. And a Dessert the More. How have I never even heard of this film before? Not only have I not seen it, I've never heard of it. You've never heard or seen of most films. No, I've heard of them. But not this one.

Not this one. Okay, let's go around the room. Producers, have you seen any of these films? I have to admit, I don't think I've seen any of them. No, neither. Okay, what one do you like out of that description then? What's your vote going to? I feel like Mama Di sold me and I'm with you on The Departed.

That's an all-star cast. It's a stellar cast. Big line-up. Are you locking in that too, Ella? Yeah, I am. It's got 91% on Rotten Tomatoes. That's pretty good. That's high. Let's take a few

votes on the text machine. Text us to 9696 if you had to vote between The Departed, American Gangster, or The Untouchables. Are you babysitting at the moment, Mum? Yes, I am. I'm sorry. Does Big Steve

need his dinner? I hope you're not breastfeeding again. Oh, come on. I can do three things at once. Jeez. I think we're locking in the departed. Are we? Are we taking some votes?

Oh, we'll take some votes. We'll take some votes. We'll just see on the text machine. We want to hear what you guys have to say. Text through to 9696. Which out of those three are going on the list? Bree and Clint. Thanks to Samsung, we're on the quest to watch

as many movies as possible in our Blockbuster Binge-a-thon. Did you know Samsung are putting in a 90-plus inch TV for us to watch? I didn't even know TVs came that big. I've seen this TV. It is phenomenal. 90 inches. Like 92 inches.

92 inches 92 inches Yeah Is that once it's Like been erected or Yeah that's erect Yeah Oh that's Yeah that's solid isn't it

Yeah That's enormous I don't know if I'm going to be able To see the whole screen It's 92 inches Because I've got that gammy eye That kind of looks off to the left It's 92 inches permanently

It's a shower not a grower Oh So it just as permanently 92. That's impressive. So thank you, Samsung, the future of AI TVs. We appreciate you guys. We're trying to lock in a gangster film right now that we're going to watch. I didn't realise your mum was so into gangster movies,

but then I guess she did marry an Italian. My mum is into every type of movie. That's one of her favourite things is movies. And she texted me yesterday and she's like, how have you guys not asked me for my input? And then she goes, I want to suggest a gangster film. She's put three up. Yeah.

The three that she suggested is The Departed. Correct. American Gangster and The Untouchables. You lot are clear that you want The Departed. What do you think, you can pop somebody and there's a special card to play? That guy Jimmy Vags, whose jaw you broke, happens to work undercover for the Boston Police Department. I'm going nuts, man.

I can't be someone else every day. It's been a year of this. It's got such a big line-up. But Claudia and Ella have never seen it, so I can't take their opinion seriously. They haven't seen any of them. So let's go to the people. Let's ask the people on 0800

dials at M. Let's talk to Dylan. G'day, mate. G'day. What do you reckon out of those three is the must-watch, Dylan? Definitely The Departed. Oh, there you go. Definitely The Departed. Like, no questions asked. Yeah, my dad got me to watch it

probably about six months ago, and I fucking loved it. Dylan, Dylan, Dylan, you're not in a gangster film now. This is what happens when you talk about gangster films. Let Dylan go. Dylan's like, then I had to pop a cap in my dad. And by cap, I mean... And his bitch ass.

Thanks, Dylan. We appreciate the passion. Sandy's here. Hi, Sandy. He meant a Mylanta. Hi. Hi, Sandy. Thanks Dylan. We appreciate the passion. Sandy's here. Hi Sandy. He meant to my lantern. Hi. Hi Sandy. Apologies. Sandy, let's bring up the tone. What are you voting for

for the gangster film, Sandy? Oh, to be honest, if it was out of those three, I've seen all of them and The Departed wins. Hands down The Departed. There you go. And it's got an epic ending. It's an experience vote from Sandy. We appreciate you.

Sandy, you said that if it was out of those three, I feel like you have another one you would suggest. I would, actually. To be fair, when Mum and I brought up the gangster movies, I was half expecting Goodfellas to come up. Oh, I want to watch Goodfellas so bad. A lot of people on the text machine suggesting Goodfellas as well. Maybe Mama Di hasn't seen it, hence why she may have not suggested it.

Possibly. Yeah. This is my favourite gangster movie. If there was ever any gangster movie that I could recommend, it'd be Goodfellas. That's the one. Okay. Great. Thank you, Sandy.

Thank you, Sandy. We appreciate your input. Thank you, Sandy. We appreciate your input. See you, mate. I'm going to have to put my vote behind The Departed. I think we're locking it in. I think it's a clean sweep for The Departed. Two and a half hours of our 24-hour

blockbuster binge-a-thon. Is it two and a half hour movie? Two hours, 31 minutes. Whoa. Goes to The Departed. Done. I feel like that's an overnight movie. That's not a daytime movie. Two hours, 31 minutes. Whoa. Goes to The Departed. Done. I feel like that's an overnight movie. That's not a daytime movie. Nah, it's not the same effect. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You need to watch it at night. Yeah, and you need to be drinking and smoking. Yeah, can we get

cigars for when we watch The Departed producers, please? There's some more movies you can vote on too on the Bree and Clint Instagram story. Go and tell us what we should watch this Thursday in our Blockbuster Binge-a-thon. Thanks to Samsung. Bree and Clint. Did you really dislike the engagement ring that was picked out for you?

It's okay. It's a safe space. And it does happen often. Someone texts through and said, I worked in the jewellery trade and sold so many horrendous rings as engagement rings. Age old saying though, the customer is always right, but we knew they would be back to change it.

Yeah, well, there you go. There you go. My husband did a warehouse cheap ring, and then I chose my own way better. That's smart. It's a placement holder. Well, it doesn't sound like it was. Sounds like that's the ring he wanted to give you.

He did not have great taste. Lol. Nothing wrong with a warehouse ring, but if you don't like the ring, then yeah, go and choose your own ring. Yeah. You do have to wear it for the rest of your life. You know what's a fun way of going about it? You go, babe, I love this ring. I love that you got this for me.

It's not quite right, but I love it so much, I want to have it melted down and incorporated into the ring that I'm designing. I don't know if that's worse. Oh, okay, babe. Yeah, that sounds good. Where you hate it that much that you want to melt it down. You want to destroy it and rebuild it.

That there's never even a chance you have to wear it. Sarah's here. Hi, Sarah. Hi, Sarah. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. Did you hate the ring, Sarah? I did, and I thought it was a joke when he got down on his knee

and proposed to me. Oh, that bad. Why did you thought it was a joke when he got down on his knee and proposed to me. Oh, that bad. Why did you think it was a joke? It wasn't even that bad, but it just wasn't me. It's like the opposite of me, you know? And we've been together for like close to 10 years, and I was like, what is this? Oh, that's even worse. Tell us, describe it.

What's the ring look like? So it doesn't look the same now we changed it. You did what I said. You rebuilt it. Yeah, so we just got little bits taken out, but it was rubies and diamonds. Look, like beautiful. He'd spent a lot of money on it.

He designed it himself, so I felt really bad. I think that's the key there, Sarah. I think that is the key there where people go, you know what? I love this person that I'm going to propose to so much that I am going to design it myself. I've never, ever had any experience in designing rings, but I think I can step up to the plate. Yeah.

Leave it to the jeweler. Yes, Sarah. That's men conflating, like, sentiment with their ability. You know? The sentiment is that you want to marry them and that you want to go to the effort. Don't feel bad. That is not your trade.

You cannot design rings. Don't start now. Yes. Like leave it to the professionals. You wouldn't design a wedding dress for her. No.

Would you? Oh well good on you Sarah can I say for being honest with your partner and just being like, you know, it's not exactly right. Did they handle it well when you told them you didn't like it?

He, well, look, I pretended for about a year that I liked it, but he could tell. He could tell. You know, when people would ask to see the ring, I kind of was like shying away. Oh, bless you. So did he bring it up? Did he bring it up eventually and go,

hey, I don't think you like the ring? He used to say, he was like, look, I don't reckon you like it. I was like, no, I love it. It's just. Even you just saying it then, Sarah, I could tell you were lying because your voice was like, no, I love it. Yeah, I'm not a great liar. So that's right there. And that's why he loves you.

Exactly. Well, everyone wins. Sarah got what she wanted. Totally. And her boyfriend got he loves you. Exactly. Well, everyone wins. Sarah got what she wanted. Totally. And her boyfriend got a reality check. Don't design the ring. He got to design two rings. Emily's here.

Hi, Emily. Hi, Emily. Hi. Tell us, what was the situation that happened in your relationship? So it wasn't actually me. It was a girl I used to be friends with. Yeah, gotcha. So he proposed And then she

Whinged and whinged And whinged to us Oh no, but she didn't tell him Yeah, so one of the reasons We're literally not friends anymore is because I turned around And I said, no good whinging to us We can't change it But the reason we kind of knew, like, when he proposed,

we were like, we know that's not what she wants. But it's because she was the kind of person that would say, go to, like, Pandora and buy one of those, like, comically large, like, fake diamonds kind of ring. Gotcha. Gotcha. But it acts like it's real. Oh.

But it's not like it wasn't. Like, it was like, it's a, you know, $150 Pandora rake. So do you think she wanted a comically large real diamond for her wedding? Oh, yeah. Like, I'm talking like he would have had to probably spend $60,000, $70,000 to get her a wedding. Oh, no. No, no, no, no. That was never going to happen.

No. And, like, that's the thing. That's why I said to her, I said, just, you know, there's no good whinging to us. No. Also, I did send her a text about that original story. Yeah. It's about five years old, but it was literally in a ring-shaming group.

That's what the entire group is for. The Facebook group is for ring-shaming. You go and put... Ring-shaming. It'll be, I guarantee it'll be, because I've heard the story a few times over here, and it'll be like, something, something, I'm ring shaming. What's wrong with people that they're a part of a ring shaming group?

There's a wedding shaming group. There's wedding dress shaming group. Shame my ring. Yeah. Oh, no. It's so horrible. And she's the kind of person I could see being in that kind of group. Yeah.

I can't believe her engagement ring broke up your friendship. It was that bad. It was the tip of the iceberg. That was the first time I actually spoke my mind. Yeah, no, no, you're better off. Sounds like it was the tip of the iceberg. By the way, if you're joining this conversation late, the ring shaming group

is, we're talking about wedding rings. Yes, yeah, because no one likes to shame someone's brown eye. Right? We would never. We would never. Not on the internet, anyway. No.

It's time for a birthday banger. Bree and Clint. All I want for my birthday is a birthday banger. Birthday banger time. Number one songs when you turn 16. We do all the work here in the studio for you. Figure out the song and then tell you what yours is. We played Queen yesterday.

How good. Today, taking on the Birthday Banger Challenge is Adam. G'day, mate. Hello, Ads. Yeah, hey, how's it going? Good, mate. How was your day? Oh, glad it's over.

Really? What was a tough day, bad day, sad day? It was just sort of long. Long. Yeah, Tuesdays can be like that. Yeah. How many hours did you put in at work today, Adam? 10.

Oh, yeah. That's a solid day at work. Solid day. Well, let's get you home, mate. What's your date of birth? My date of birth is 14th of January, 1985. Right. That means that you were 16 in 2001,

I said to her that very question because I've never seen it, and I said, is it a good movie. I just don't know if it's one of the must-sees in that 24 hours. I said to her that very question because I've never seen it. And I said, is it a good movie, though? And all she said to me was, hold on to your knickers, girls. It is a good movie. It is a good movie. But I don't know if it should be on the list. Okay, fair enough. You're in charge.

Daryl's going to do his birthday banger. Hi, Daryl. G'day, Daz. How are you, team? How's it going? Good, mate. How many hours you put in on the clock today, mate? Oh, the clock said nine, but probably six, I'd say.

Three-hour toilet break? Yeah. Yeah, so I'm... You had to have smoko, and then you had to have a cup of tea. Nothing like getting paid to sit on the toilet, too. And then you had to smoko after the tea, and then toilet. So we hear you, Daryl. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What we hear you, Daryl.

What a classic. Mate, Darrell, are you stoked? I'm stoked, very stoked. It was hard to beat that one. I saw the cutest TikTok video the other day where the groom's favourite artist, I think, of all time was Ben Lummis. Really? And the bride had organised Ben Lummis to come to the reception

and do a couple of songs. I love that. And I love that Ben Lummis would do that too. And yeah, Ben Lummis turned up. He looked great. Okay, Daz, wait there. We're going to choose between Ben Lummis, Spice Girls and Destiny's Child.

Hey, quick break, and then I've got a surprise for you. Okay. Okay. Is that a good surprise or a bad surprise? That's a bad surprise. No, it's a surprise. It's a surprise. It's an opportunity.

I hate surprises from you. It's an opportunity. Okay, it's an opportunity. Oh, no. Okay, and we've gone to a bit of effort. So stick with us and we'll present that to you next. ZM. Bree and Clint.

A survey's been conducted asking the participants when they felt like they were the most out of touch and officially uncool. At what age exactly did that happen for them? What was the tipping point? What was the moment where you lose touch with coolness? And there was a bunch of different categories that they did ask them about,

but essentially they asked all the participants to rate themselves on how up to date they felt with the latest trends and what's, and like different categories from food to music to technology, the arts, even slang terms. Fashion? I believe fashion was in there. Fashion is a big one. Yes. Fashion was in there.

Here's how to know you're out of touch. If you've ever uttered the words, oh my God, I can't believe XYZ is back in fashion, I remember wearing that the first time around. Yeah. You are. You're out. I feel you're out. Unless you're like, thank God that's back.

I've still got some. I can bring it back in. If you can wear them the second time around, there's a chance that you're still in touch, right? Exactly. Exactly. All right, let's go around the room. What is the exact pinpoint age do you think the majority

of these participants said or felt like they were out of touch and uncool? 40. 40? Yeah. Locking in 40? Producers? I was going to go a lot younger and say 30.

Same. 30? Yeah. 30? That's you, Claudia. Some of the coolest artists on the lot younger and say 30. Same. 30? Yeah. 30? That's you, Claudia. Some of the coolest artists on the Zedian playlist are 30. Yeah, but they're not normal people. SZA is 34. Yeah. That's true.

I'm still going to lock in 30. 30. I'll pick something different. That's mine. Okay, fine. But it's all relative. There's some things I say to my 16-year-old sister and she goes, cringe. So then I feel uncool. But I'll pick 28.

28, okay. Let's see. I think 2,000 participants agreed that 39 was the average age of feeling really uncool when being surveyed. I've got one more year. You've got one? What are you going to do with your one more year of being cool? Definitely get cargo pants.

Yeah, for sure. You've got to go with the cargo pants. Definitely like... Are you going to keep hitting the woe? Yeah, I hit the woe a lot. Tattoo? Dab, tattoo. A lot of TikTok, I think.

A lot of TikTok. Far out. This is like being given a death sentence. How many crew socks do you have? Yeah. Do you wear crew socks or ankle socks? I transitioned out

of ankle socks recently, thank goodness. Did you? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because you, like, Clint didn't even wear an ankle sock. Did you know that?

Clint wore those little ballet socks. Oh, that's such an ick. Didn't you? No, now it is. Now it is. When I was wearing them, it was a sick. That was no.

Can I just say, any guy, when they took their shoe off and they were wearing a ballet sock, wasn't for me. My eyes. My eyes. I feel like Phoebe Buffay. My eyes. So 39. 39 is the age.

See how Clint's wrapping it up He's like alright enough of that Rest in peace Enough Hands on hip Guys Guys You can rip on me next year

Okay next year He's got one more year guys For now For now We still cool homies Oh no Oh no It's happening early

I wish I didn't say that And that is us We are done For the day Oh, no. It's happening early. I wish I didn't say that. Bree and Clint. And that is us. We are done for the day. We outies. Do we get paid? You know we're doing the movie marathon. The blockbuster binge-a-thon for 24 hours.

Yeah. Do we get paid overtime for that? I negotiated overtime for myself. Did you? Yeah. It's like eight, 16, three days worth of work. Yeah. I just thought, you know, be smart about this. Wait, you negotiated it for yourself?

Yeah, I tried to get you on there, but they said one of you, and I just swooped in there. To be honest, there's a high probability I'll be asleep anyway. Well, that's the thing. I thought if anyone's going to stay awake, it's going to be me. And I also thought you're already getting paid. You're getting paid with the joy of watching film. Yeah, true. And then there's the gender pay gap as well.

Yes. So I got that. Yeah, you got that. So it all works out in the wash. Sweet. That's fine by me. Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
