ZM's Bree and Clint podcast. It's for anyone who works in an office or anyone who has a work computer I guess, here at ZM, I would say we are trapped in a vortex of emails, passwords, authentication apps to get the passwords for our emails, and Microsoft Outlook calendars invites. Honestly, the journey, no shade to our tech department, but the journey that this workplace has been on in the last couple of years, it's made it,

like they wanna have everything secure, and I get that. That's big priority, but they've made it so secure that even the employees can't get into the emails. You would think that we work at the FBI. Honestly. You would think. I'm like, what are we hiding here? We have CIA level files here in our ZM email inbox and then today we get to work and our boss Ross who bless him he's great

man but he loves more apps and more admin. Oh the more apps the better. He's now added an app that we have to use to get a password to be able to use the social media apps for ZM. So our Instagram at Brian Clint, we were all logged into our Instagram, right? Because it is our show's Instagram. Oh, here comes Ross. We like to pop things up now and then. Wait there Ross, you hero. No, no, no.

And then honestly, it logged all of us out. It logged us all out. So then we have to now get this random app. No, no, no. And then, honestly, it logged all of us out. It logged us all out. So then we have to now get this random app. I don't trust the app. So Claudia tries to use your new app. So it's an external app. It's a new app that you use to get a password for other apps.

Claudia, what happened when you tried to get a password from the app? So I needed to sign up for it, but my email's already in use. So. I missed that, what was it? She needed to sign up for it but my email's already in use. What was it? She needed to sign up for the app but her email's already in use on that app so she couldn't do it. You know why? Because Claudia set it up and she's forgotten her password.

I haven't even touched it. We had a password. Who knows what a password manager is and why are these two boomers? I thought you were going to say 9696 who knows what Claudia's password is. That would be a massive help. I thought you were going to say 9696, who knows what Claudia's password is. That would be a massive help. We this afternoon, no not Boomers, you just love apps on top of apps on top of apps. A lot of security for our company guys.

What are we hiding? What do we have to hide? Is there something we've got to hide? God forbid, God forbid someone sees our draft Instagram reels. Those nudes were from years ago, if they got leaked, Ross, I'd be happy now. I'd be happy if those got released of me. We received a step-by-step list of instructions for how to download the app to give you a password

to log into the other apps. Our job at this stage is updating passwords. That's our entire job. It's wild. I feel like I spend most of my work day updating my work email password. This is the question that we have for people this afternoon and this could be quite incredible. Do you have a job with no emails? Does the job that you have have no passwords? There are no emails. You don't that you have, that sounds nice. Have no passwords. There are no emails,

you don't have to log into anything. You don't have to update your password for anything. You don't have to have a security question for anything. You run an analogue diary. Possibly, yeah, so you know where to go. And a phone. Yeah, you could have a dumb phone if you wanted to. Yep.

What's the job with no emails? 0800 DAILZM. And is there a position going? Text it to 9696 if you even have a phone. If you even need one. And yeah, can we come? Can we come and work for you? Do you guys need a radio show?

We're not the best workers, but we are willing to learn. Except if it's a password app. Ha ha ha ha. That is Franklin. If you, all right, your work computer at the moment and it's just asked you to re-log in with a new password and you are ready to punch your computer screen right in its face, then this is for you.

Jobs that have no emails. We're forced to change our password here at our work email more than we're changing our sheets. And you can't repeat a password that you've had the last 15 passwords. Like, eventually we're gonna run out. Like guys, they're only- Like I'm worried.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So then people go, you should get a password manager. But did you know you have to have a password for your password manager? You have to sign up. You have to have a password. your password manager? You have to sign up. You have to have a password. So we're asking this afternoon, do you have a job with no emails? Does that still exist?

Hayley has called up. Hi Hayley. Hi Hayley. Hi. What's the job? So I work as a strawberry picker in a glass house. Really? Wait, in a glass house? How big's the glass house? I think it's like two hectares in size.

Whoa! So you pick strawberries all year round? Yeah, they do, yeah. It's like a new thing. They used to do blueberries and they've turned it into strawberries so they can supply all year round. And no emails.

So if the boss needs to get a message to you guys, how does he do it or she do it? I like text message, but usually, yeah, like I only work casual hours so yeah, text messages is all that I have to communicate with. Hayley, I mean, amazing how good not having emails and sitting at a desk and stuff. But I do know strawberry picking notoriously one of the hardest fruits to pick. How's your back going? My back's fine, my feet get a little bit sore but my back is actually okay. I only work 9-2-2 so it's pretty easy hours.

Dream! Dream. Good on you Hayley, well done. What an inspiration. Someone said I do fruit delivery around Auckland, the deliveries are on a piece of paper every morning and I just go and deliver the fruit. I love that. That's awesome. Someone else texted me asking jobs that have no emails. They said I was a croupier and there are no logins emails or passwords. That's someone who works at the gambling tables in a casino. Oh fun. Yeah. I mean after a while I feel

like you'd get pretty tired but... Can they not have emails? Are they worried they're going to share like company secrets or something? Yeah that's interesting they don't have any emails. What about this one? Outdoor Adventure Park instructor. No passwords or emails here. We received all our customer calls on an old brick phone with two buttons. Hell yeah.

How good's that? Hell yeah. Sonia's called up. Hi Sonia. Hi Sonia. Hello, how are we? Hell yeah. How good's that? Hell yeah. Sonia's called up. Hi Sonia. Hi Sonia. Hello, how are we? Good thanks. What's the job that you've got where there are no emails? I'm an op shop coordinator.

Yes. And no emails for you, Sonia? Absolutely not. Not everyone. I work Monday to Friday. Everyone just touches base with me face to face and everything is done through a calendar and my main diary, work diary.

And Sonia, question, because you're the Op Shop Coordinator, do you get first pick of all the best stuff? Yes I do. Yes! For all the bosses right now who are implementing more passwords and more systems and more apps in the hopes that it's going to make their business more efficient. Does your op shop run perfectly smoothly without any emails? Yes it does. Yes.

There you go. Yes, no problems at all. Who would have thought? Everybody loves it that way. Yeah, people got to the moon without emails. You know? They did. They didn't exist, yeah? They did.

They got to the moon without a password manager. You know? Yeah, it was all before email. Thanks Sonia. We appreciate it I love this one. I'm a home-based Bakery, I know emails. I have a phone and run through my pin slash paper diary No passwords here people just text you and go can I get this? I love that. I get this that's that's the dream And you've set yourself up that way. That's great. Someone said, I'm a dairy farmer. All I do is pull tits and pick up chicks.

Yeah, that's, I mean, that is the dream. That is the dream. No emails for that. No emails there. My husband's a builder. He gets his pay slips to his personal email account, but that's it. He has never changed his password ever. I work in IT, so I have a 16 character password,

an MFA authentication, and a different password for my admin account. That sounds horrible. Someone just texted her and said, these people calling in sound so stress free. Don't they? Yeah, it's because they don't have bloody emails. And passwords, and a password manager.

They're unplugged from the matrix. Brilliant. ZN's Brian Clint. Came across this real funny thread where people were asked to describe their ex as a brand, which sounds weird, but when I read some out, you'll get the gist of what they were trying to do. Okay, sure. I've pulled out some of my favourite ones and then I thought we could all give it a crack as in people listening you guys can text through yours on 9696. So let's kick it

off, describe your ex as a brand. Number one, blockbuster because I should have closed the door on him in the early 2000s. Number two, Pepsi because he had a problem with Coke. Oh, okay. Wow. That's a good one. Yep. Number three, Teemu because I was always disappointed but never surprised. I like that one. Number four, Teemu, you only got them because you couldn't get what you really wanted. Oh, that's good too. I like that as well. Number four? Timu, you only got them because you couldn't get what you really wanted. Oh, that's good too. I like that as well. Number four, IKEA had to do everything myself. Oh yeah, I thought it was gonna be a flat one,

like a flat joke. Which I think it's all about doing the flat packs. She has a flat pack. Number five, Twitter because now he's my ex. That's smart. Oh, that's clever. That's clever, that one. Number six, Uber because he took everyone for a ride.

Ooh. That's good. Yeah. Number seven. Uber, Uber, because taxi drivers hate him. Tommy Hilfiger because he'll figure out a way to lie about anything. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

I like that, that's smart. Duolingo because I can never learn my lesson. Oh yeah. anything. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I like that. That's smart. Duo lingo because I can never learn my lesson. Oh yeah. And that was speaking a different language. Rolex because he was expensive for no reason and an absolute waste of time. Very good. Looks good though. Airbnb because he let anyone sleep there. Oh. Google because he thought he knew everything. Oh yeah.

And one more. Where is it? Here we go. Probably my favourite. These are if you were to describe your ex as a brand. Ancestry.com, because he liked to keep it in his family. Eww! I thought you were going to say because he's always sharing his DNA.

That's good too. We want you guys to give this a go. I'll need some time to think about this. But if you think you guys can do it, we'd love to hear it. We want you to describe your ex as a brand. You can text it to us at 9696 or call us up and say it on the radio. Some early ones that are coming through, someone texted and said, my ex would be Nike

because they will just do it with anyone. That's good. And someone else, oh no, don't say that one. You nearly fell for the trap. Someone else said, Teemu, because everything was broken. Yep, that's good too. What's yours if you were to describe your ex as a brand and why? Texting through now to 9696.

We can keep you anonymous? Yes. Absolutely, we can keep you anonymous. Sure can. Or you can name your ex if you want. Up to you. Describe your ex as a brand. Right now we're asking you to describe your ex as a brand. God, there's some creative ones.

People are very clever on the text machine this afternoon. There's so many clever people that listen to this show. So this is you describing your exes as brands. Let's go through them. Someone said, Audi, they looked really good, but they were expensive to maintain. I like it. Someone said, News Talk ZB, because they liked the sound of their own voice. We can say that because it's a part of our company.

Someone said my ex would be a Toyota because although they were nice and reliable, they were pretty boring. That's good. That is Toyota. Such a reliable, sturdy. No sex appeal. No, but. Never going to let you down. You know they ain't gonna let you down. Someone said, My ex as a brand would be Amazon because he had an anaconda in that rainforest.

Oh. Here's an image. Yep. My ex would be Netflix because I shared him with three other girls and I was the only one paying. Wow! I have to clap that one.

Standing ovation. That might be my favorite one. Damn that's smart. Someone said Auckland Zoo because he was a cheater. I quite like that. Someone said I would call my ex Barkers because he was a dog. Get it? Oh it's good. Very good. Someone else said Repco because he's a tool. That's fun. Describe your ex as a brand. Someone said, my ex would be Bendon because he liked wearing woman's panties.

That's quite a literal one, but it's good. It's good, we like it. Someone else said, Sea Lord. Totally flounders the second something got hard, went wrong didn't go his way That's quite good. I like that We're something that been read my ex would be any kind of insurance company because he hounded me for years to get together And then when we did he wouldn't pay up when I put in a claim for love and affection Someone else said one roof because when we lived together he cheated on me with our else said, one roof, because when we lived together, he cheated on me with our flatmate.

Under one roof. Under one roof. It's good. It's clever. It's very clever. My ex would be Teemu, cause he's a cheap ginger. Geez.

Someone else said, wish, because they were plastic and fake. Enviro waste, because he was rubbish and a waste of time. It's good. It's good. Uber because he gave everyone else a ride. I describe my ex as Microsoft. Enough said. That's good. You know I just picture the person who wrote that and then potentially the person who it's about Yeah being in their car going that could be about me. They're like actually it was perfectly normal size

Okay, and the soft bit happens to lots of people. Okay, leave me alone. Yeah, at least it was Windows 98 The ZM podcast network Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya? It's time for Brian Clince. Google Down, punk. All right, time to find out who is the fastest Googler in the team.

And if you have text through the name of the person, you could pick up 50 bucks, all thanks to our mates at Neon. So I said to give get into my relaxed position. That's too relaxed man. I'm good. Please put those back on. Right, here we go. I'll ask the questions that I've put into Google.

First person to yell out the answer that comes up on Google. I'll give you a point. First to three takes it out. Are we ready to play? Question number one, good. Who invented chewing gum? Mikaela Cole. William F. Simple.

William F. Simple is correct. I Googled a TV series called Chewing Gum. Frank Flair? No? Can I request no more invented questions because I can't spell the word invented in a hurry. You can request it and I will not listen. Question number two. In what year did the Aztec civilization live? 1325 to 1521. Wow! That was speedy. I can spell Aztec. That was unbelievable. How's that relaxed-ness going for you Clint? Well that was a bit stressful but overall

I'd say more relaxed than not. I had the Aztec corn chips theme song in my head that was the problem as soon as you said Aztec I couldn't pass it. You're just like la la la la la. Aztec corn chips, Medi Natural way. Wonder Clint, Wonder Claudia question number three. How old was Ariana Grande when she first appeared on the Disney 21. 21. Wait, what were the answers? I said 7. 15. 13. Oh, 13. No one is correct. 15. 13. So we will wipe that question.

17. The answer was 14. Oh. None of us did that. And I feel like all of you, no one said 14. You said every other number. You said every other number. Wow.

Okay, no points there. Question number four. How old are the Olsen twins? 38. Wow, good job. Oh my God, I knew that, because they're the same age as me, and I've always known they were the same age as me. When I was watching Full House as a kid,

I was like, they're the same age as me. Maybe you need a little bit of stress to keep your brain sharp. We are one point apiece in this game. Question number five. I'm the third Olsen twin. You look plot twist. That would make you triplets. That's what you think.

That is what comes up on Google, so that is what we're going with. Two to Pixie, two to Clint, one to Claudia. Question number seven. What is the net worth of Tobey Maguire? I don't know how to spell this. $75 million. We are going to a three-way tie break question.

Okay, it's hard to relax when we're at a three-way tiebreak. Just chill out, man. This is very stressful. I'm stressed. I'm very relaxed. Question number eight. How many Oscars has Meryl Streep won? Three. Three Oscars has Meryl Streep won? Three Oscars. Who said three? Nominated 21 times.

Claudia gets it done in eight. It is three. What a comeback! Nicole, you correctly picked Claudia. You must have been touching cloth there for a bit. I was. what a wonder. That's awesome, I knew it, I had faith. Good job Nicole and because you had the faith in Claudia we'll send you 50 bucks cash thanks to Neon, nice work. Fantastic, thanks so much. You're welcome. Man if I just trusted myself and gone with the Olsen twins when I would have won.

You should, you just need to back yourself sometimes. And to think they're one of your Siamese twins. I know. Clint ate them in the womb. It's ZM's Bree and Clint podcast. I want to ask some questions around the rules around secrets. Okay, have you got one? Do I have what?

A secret. A secret? Yeah. Yeah, I'm sitting on it. No, I'm sitting on a secret. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I was having a conversation with a friend of mine the other day and we were talking about, for some reason, the rules around secrets and secret keeping. So I wanted to run a few things by you guys. So essentially, if someone tells you a secret and they don't say, don't tell anyone, can you tell people? No, I feel like if they've told you that it is a secret, that it's implied that you don't tell anyone. Is it?

Like if I said to you, oh my God, I know a secret. Oh my God, do you want to know a secret? Yeah. Oh, I guess it's not. I guess you do have to say, but you can't tell anyone. Yeah, so here's my question. If they say,

Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah. This is a secret, but they don't say. Is it their secret? Or is it like gossip? Is it a secret they know about someone else? Well, let's say for this hypothetical secret about someone else. Okay, then No, if it's a secret about them See this is confusing. Yeah, but but there is levels to this isn't there? There is producers What would you say someone says I've got a secret?

I feel like regardless of if they've said it's a secret or not, I feel like you are allowed to tell your partner. I just assume everyone's partner will always know. I feel like that's a level too. If you tell me a secret, you should assume that my partner is going to hear the secret too. I'm getting there. So the next level of the secret keeping rules is if someone says, let me tell you a secret, but don't tell anyone, they can assume that you will either tell your partner or your best friend. I think so. I reckon best friend and partner always assumed.

I didn't think about best friend, but yeah, I guess. Best friend or partner. How serious a partner does it have to be? Because if I tell you a secret and I say don't tell anyone and then you tell the person that you just happen to be dating. Nah, it's different. It's different.

They need to be committed to you so you know the secret is safe. What about if someone says, I've got a secret, don't tell anyone, including your best friend or partner. I'd say, oh well, don't tell me the secret. I'd be like, tell me the secret and I'll still tell them. Yeah, I would still tell them. Oh, you'd say I won't tell them, but then you'll still tell them.

I'd go, yeah, sure, but you'd tell them, right? Really? I would just not tell them. Just assume that if you tell me a secret, I'm going to tell someone. If I give my word that I will tell no living soul, I can keep that secret. So what if the secret is compromising and then it comes out and your partner says, oh my god, I can't believe you didn't tell me about this. Well, that's different. If it involves my partner, then that person shouldn't have put me in that position

and I will be telling them. Yeah. What if it doesn't directly involve your partner, but it involves someone that your partner knows? Like, for example, the person who tells you the secret is having an affair and they say don't tell your partner. But you and your partner are friends with the other person in that relationship, the person that's being cheated on. But is it my partner's friend or is it... you know because then that implicates my partner. Let's go back a step. So you say to me, I'm going to tell you a secret, but you can't tell anyone.

And so you assume that I won't tell anyone, but I will tell my partner. How many people is my partner allowed to tell? No one. It depends on how good my chat is otherwise. Like if I have nothing else going on. Yeah, if you're at a party and you run out of chat and you panic, I'm going to have to pull it out. I feel that on a deep level, Pixie,

where I feel like that is the only time that I need to pull out the secrets. I think there's a bit of responsibility on the secret teller here to know how good the person they're telling the secret to is at keeping secrets. Because you and I both know people that you know. You know, they tell us secrets. And if they're telling us secrets, you better

believe that they're telling your secrets to other people. And that's why I pride myself on, I feel like I'm a good secret keeper. If someone says don't tell anyone. You are the chamber of secrets. Like I will not. Like if I give you my word, I'm not telling the soul. No, but that thing you told me about Clint the other day. Yeah, that was between you and I. That was pretty crazy. You told me something my partner. Yeah, that was between you and I. That was pretty crazy.

You told me something too. Yeah, but that was between you and I as well. Guys, I'm just happy to be talked about at this stage, to be honest. Hey. It's ZM's Bre and Clint podcast. Time for gaydar. Bre and Clint's gaydar.

Hi Skye. Hi Skye. Hello. What kind of dog do you have Skye? A Black Lab. Black Lab. Oh my god that gives me nothing. Claudia just nodded as if to go

oh yeah I've got it. Gives me zero. Feels like different to a chocolate lab you know. Oh you reckon the color of the lab specifically gives you something. Black Lab. Very shiny. I'm really trying to use my experience here and I'm gonna say Skye you are a part of the rainbow community. I agree my gut says that as well are you gay Skye? No. You sure? Just kidding Skye. Damn! Okay okay. I'm not going well so far. Let's go to Jordan. Hi Jordan. Hi Jordan. Hey, how's it going? Good, thank you.

Jordan, what type of dog do you have? I've got two. Okay. A Chihuahua and a Shih Tzu. Okay. Whoa. Jordan. Jordan.

Jordan. My gut is saying that you are wonderfully gay. Gay Jordan. Gay? Yeah, you got that. Yeah. It was the Chihuahua for me. The Shih Tzu for me.

Really? Yeah. Both very cute dogs. Thanks Jordan. Thanks Jordan. Kate's here to play gay dog. Hi Kate. Hi Kate.

Hello. This dog thing's been a real mixed bag for us so far. What do you reckon Kate? What kind of dog do you have? Well she's nice, especially a special but Labrador, Black Lab Croc. Bit of lab, bit of everything else in there. Yeah, bit of everything. I know. I'm pretty sure I know what I reckon. I'll say Kate's gay. Gay Kate. No, straight. We should have known, it rhymes with her name.

Straight Kate. Straight Kate. Straighty Katie. Straighty Katie. Thanks Kate, we appreciate it. One more, Tessa. Hi Tessa. Hi Tessa. Hi, how you doing?, Tessa, hi Tessa. Hi Tessa.

Hi, how you going? Damn Tessa, I need this last one. We need it for our averages. Okay, my dog is a little mix. He's a foxy poodle bichon. A foxy poodle bichon. And did you specifically go out trying to get a foxy poodle bichon?

No, he was just the funniest one we could find on Trade Me. So we bought him. Okay. Okay. Tessa, my... Oh god, it's been so off today, but my gut says that you're gay. Tessa, my gut says that you're straight. I am part of the rainbow community.

Come on, thank God! Thank you, Tessa. About time an ally came through with the goods. Get one on you. Yeah, I needed it, Tessa. Tessa, when we were brainstorming Gator today, Claudia said the segment had been overrun by straights. So you've helped to balance the ledger this afternoon. Thank you.

Least I could do. Yeah right. Thank you Tessa. Appreciate your time. I think we both ended on like... It was grim today. 40%? Grim for both of us. We need to do a bit more research.

Yeah dogs not the key to Gator it turns out. No. Next on the show about this time yesterday you asked us to send a survey to our nearest and dearest, asking them what our worst parts of our personality were. Yeah, it's all about self-development and self-growth, even though I can't say it. But anyway. The questionnaire was sent to our partners, our parents, and our best friends, and our boss.

Next. All of our nearest and dearest. Claudia has the results of that survey. She is loving every second of this, can I say? I got to pre-read them and you guys know some funny people. Well, will we be laughing at the end of this? Like it's funny to Claudia? Will it be funny to us? Well, we'll find out I guess. Can we handle this intense level of personal development? Yesterday on the show I proposed that you and I Clint undertake a bit of self

development and we send all of our closest nearest and dearest our loved ones a survey asking them to tell us what are our three worst traits. Some guy on Survivor did it and he reckons it helped him get further in the competition knowing the things about him that other people find irritating. Yeah it made him more self-aware and I think that is a good thing you know to be more self aware of your downfalls. Yeah it can be dangerous though to look too closely in the mirror you know. But how can we grow and move I'm trying to be positive I'm absolutely packing it. I know you suggested that we send one question to our partner, our best friend, our mum and and our boss, Ross Boss.

Correct. And then we threw in our producer Claudia as well because for some reason she wanted to have an opinion too. I've never seen her so excited to take part in a survey actually. Has everyone done the survey, Claude? Almost everyone, yeah, you've got a really high hit rate. Okay. I will say my wife refused to do it. Why? Because she has not a bad word to say about you. She said she found it too mean, the question. Which, by the way, you need to explain

exactly what the question was, Claudia. Oh yes, so I said, oh let me find exactly the wording for you. Probably because she had so much ammo. Ha ha! No, I just wanted to remind them that it was anonymous. Yeah. I said, example, Bree's worst traits as told by her nearest and dearest.

What did I say? The survey is anonymous and it will only offend them a little bit. So your worst traits. That's what you're asking for. What are three worst traits? What is Bre's worst traits? What is Clint's three worst traits?

And then I also put in any other comments box just so they can stop in the boat. There's a bonus feedback. I love how my partner's completed it, didn't ask any questions, was like, yeah, here we go. She's like, I've been waiting for this. Lay it on us, Claude, we're ready.

Who's would you like to hear first? Well, you can alternate if you want. Okay, okay, I will say for Clint, there was a pretty clear, like, top three amongst it. Okay. But I also wanna say one person either was being really nice or misunderstood it or was being sarcastic and just said really kind things about you.

That would be my mum. Yeah, I think it might be. Your mum's very sweet. Clint's top three. We're not surprised. He's quite headstrong, combative, even when he's wrong. Okay. Yeah. Number two, I'm just going to go for Clint. Loves the sound of his own voice. That came in from multiple people. That was the vibe of it. That was the exact wording from one person and that was the kind of vibe from other people. It was the talking moment. Yep okay yep. I'm taking this on board. Just take listen, take it on board. It's pretty good so far to be honest.

I've been pretty happy. Yeah. It's not, none of these have been fatal blows. No. And this one was only sent in by- Nothing you didn't already know, right? Nah. Yeah.

This one was only sent in by one person, but I thought it deserved a mention. Insistent dog content. We get it bro, you have a dog. Yeah, well fair. Yeah. Bree. Oh God. Was there a theme? Was it just only three things that came up? No, honestly I couldn't find enough to like give you an average of the things. Great. So I've just pulled out some of them.

The general thing is they're overwhelmingly positive, where they've twisted a positive into a negative. Like, you're too funny and we stay up too late because we talk too much kind of. That's no! That's a cop-out. I wanted to grow. This was my favourite one. Someone sent, there's a list of four things, not three. So they've outdone themselves. Number one, Bree's worst trait. Couldn't whizzle it down. Yeah, exactly. I had to do four. Bree's worst trait, hiding food, namely tiramisu, salami, lasagna, pompetti.

She hides it anywhere at Christmas so she can eat it later. Like a dog. You know why it's funny? Because it's so true. Again, nothing you didn't already know. And you know what that shows? Selfishness. Yeah. You know why it's funny? Because it's so true. Again, nothing you didn't already know.

And you know what that shows? Selfishness. Yeah, or survival skills. The same person, I'll skip through two and three. Number four. Enormous farts that she sets up at just the right moment to look like I have done it. And then wrote in brackets, her mum. Worst part everyone always thinks it's me. Oh so Bre, Mumaday is self-identified there in the anonymous poll. And then the last one you're hard to talk to when there's a

screen in front of you. That's fair. Very distracted. Yeah that is so fair. You're not the worst at that though. I've seen worse. We know who the worst is. Three, two, one. Maddie McLean. Maddie's like, I did not sign up to do this self-development course. There's three people in Maddie McLean's marriage. Him, his husband, and his phone. And it is not an even marriage.

I sometimes I'm like, does he know I'm here? Cause I'll talk at him. He'll start a conversation. Yeah. And then he won't listen to the answer to the question that he asked. Anyway, it's not Maddie McLean. Anyway, it's not about him.

It's us. Anything else, Court? Is that it? Do you want me to send this to you so you can have a little gander at it? No, I- That's the main points that I think. That's fine.

Yeah, can you send it to me? I'd love to see them. Cause I genuinely love to know my flaws. Also the things that people said were flaws about me, things that I think are my biggest strengths. Someone said Clint is scared of banana peels. That's weird. Yeah but that's not annoying to other people is it? Oh no my wife finds it quite annoying. But you know, I'm not going to grow from this. That's true. I'm not going to change a goddamn thing about me. Can I take the survey? I think I know what I want to write down about Clint.

Hey, it's all good, guys. You say headstrong, I say a good sense of self-esteem. Yep. And that's what you're good at. I'm a self-esteem train. Hey, you've got loads of it, I wish I had some. ZM's Bree and Clint podcast. We're Bree and Clint. All I want for my birthday is a birthday banger. Here we go, your birthday banger time.

The number one song when you turn 16. We'll play three and pick one. Emmy is going to do Dad's birthday banger. Hi, Emmy. Hi, Emmy. Hi. How old are you, Emmy? I'm ten.

You're ten and you're doing your dad's, which means we need your dad's birthday. 28th of January. Yeah. 1976. Well done, Emmy. That means your dad was 16 in 1992 and on that day this was number one. Guns and roses and live and let die. What do you think, Emi? My dad used to do it in June and my brother called before for my mum Jo. Yeah? and my brother called before for my mum Jo. Yeah.

So I came back and you said to me, you can see your dad's run, so I've come back and done my dad's run. Oh, you've done it. Hey, thanks for keeping your word and calling through to do dads. He's got a great one. Call us in 2031 and do your birthday banger, okay, Emmy?

Okay. Okay, thank you. All right, we'll wait for your call. Let's go to Torrin. Hi, Torrin. Hi, Torrin. How are we, you all right? Good, thank you, mate.

How's your day been? Pretty good, pretty chill. Pretty chill? Good to hear. Hey, mate, all we need is your date of birth. 23rd of the 10th, 1998. All right, that means you were 16 in 2014. We've done our calculations and here's your birthday banger.

Because you know I'm all about that bass, about that bass, no trouble. I'm all about that bass, about that bass, no trouble. Megan Traynor and All About That Bass, what do you reckon? About that bass, about that bass. I don't think that's gonna be one in today. Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha.

Oh, come on. You know what's crazy though, crazy coincidence, that song was in the news today. What for? I believe she changed a lyric in it. Oh yeah. Cause she's like. Oh yeah I saw that. Yeah did you see that Torrin? Yeah I saw that yeah.

She changed it cause she's lost loads of weight. Yeah she's lost a heap of weight and she's changed the lyric in there. Oh right. You're buzzing. Okay, okay, okay, okay. Wait there. Torrin's like disappointed. Still doesn't make it a winner, does it?

Nah, doesn't. Oh, at least you're honest about it. Let's go to Alan for a birthday banger. Hi Alan. Hi Alan. How've we been? Good mate, what have you been doing today? Oh, work like always.

Yeah, fair enough mate, fair enough. Well let's hope for a good birthday banger for you. What is your birthday? 24th of July 1990. Right that means you were 16 in 2006. Easy math on this one. Here's your birthday banger. Now it's Barkclay and Crazy. What a great song.

It's a banger from Niles, isn't it? What do you reckon, Alan? Do you like it? It's not too bad. It's a bit over. It's alright. Hey, you could have got all about that bass, Megan. Trailer, Alan, you'd be grateful. That's alright. Hey, you could have got all about that bass Megan Trager, Alan, you'd be grateful. That's true.

I'm fascinated about this line that she's changed because she lost weight. Yeah, wait, do you want me to figure it out? Well, I'm interested. Okay, hold on. Claudia knows. Claudia, what's the deal? So, you know how she starts that song, she's like, it's pretty clear, I ain't no size two. Yeah. She is now probably a size two.

She's changed it to be a size two.'t no size two. Yeah. She is now probably a size two. Whoa. She's changed it to be a size two. Can we clarify? Yes. Yeah. She's changed it to something like, it's pretty clear that I have some big boobs. No, here we go.

Yes, it's pretty clear. I got some new boobs. Some new boobs. Oh yeah, okay. Oh, good for you, Meghan Trainor. Oh, she is tiny these days, isn't she? Is she? Yeah. She looks like a different person. Oh my God, she does look like a different trainer. Well, she is tiny these days, isn't she? Is she?

Yeah. She looks like a different person. Oh my God, she does look like a different person. Yeah. Wow, okay. That's not winning anyway. I'm voting for Niles Barkley in crazy. Me too, Alan's got the win.

For sure. Alan, you're the winner of birthday banger. Congratulations. Oh, cheers. Nice. Brian Clint, your ZM. I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind. ZM, Brian Clint on ZM. Nels Barkley and Krazy on ZM. It's the winner of birthday banger for Ellen. It came out in the year 2006. Did he have any other hits? Not really CeeLo Green did. CeeLo Green had

FU. Yeah, and that was a big hit. CeeLo Green had a couple. What else did he have? CeeLo Green How tall do we reckon he is? I reckon not very. He's 4 foot 11 Yeah, how tall? Yeah, he's a little um little wrecking ball of a man. He's the tiniest human, hold on, in feet. What? This is saying he's 5 foot 7. 5 foot 7? Oh this says 5 foot 6, 5 foot 6. Maybe laying down. Yeah, he wishes.

Yeah. This is Gnaws Barclay. Right. Niles Barkley. Right. Gone, Daddy Gone. Can't say it's super familiar to me. Why is CeeLo Green such a big deal? Was he on The Voice? He was a judge on The Voice for a bit. Yeah, The Voice US. Yeah.

I'm pretty sure he's a producer. Like he's produced a lot of big artists and a lot of big hits. And then had a couple of hits of his own, kind of like Pharrell. But not as successful as Pharrell. Pharrell's like, excuse me? How dare you? Excuse me? But like, you know, that same type of vibe. Yeah, yeah. But obviously Pharrell,

way more successful. Pharrell, if you're listening, I apologise. CeeLo, you're welcome. Yes, CeeLo, you're welcome. Yeah, he'd be stoked with that. Do we look the same, you reckon? You're driving the car right now. This information might be interesting to you.

Whereas study has looked into whether or not different songs can hinder your driving ability. Oh yeah. And... Can certain songs help your driving ability? That's a great question. Let's get into the results. So, turns out that songs with a faster tempo can have a negative impact on driving behaviours according to this new research. I mean, what is faster tempo? Like, what does that mean? So, they've broken it down. Songs

that have 120 beats per minute and higher are songs that are considered to be fast tempo in terms of this study. So I have got some examples of some fast tempo songs. Songs that according to this make you a bad driver. Exactly. Okay so let's have a listen to the first one. I definitely drive worse when Bruno Mars is on the radio. Yeah me too, but it's because of how I feel about him. So apparently these sorts of songs can affect some drivers speed like how fast they're going yeah sure their alertness and reaction time let's see another one I hate this song so much

if I never heard this song again it'd be too soon my daughters are obsessed with Taylor Swift, and I told them that this is the one song I refuse to play for them. That's fair. I'll play you guys anything else. That is fair, that is fair. You can even have that

I love Taylor Swift. Vocal album if you want. I love her. But you can't have that song, that's the deal. But this song. No, no. Have we got any more? Yeah.

There's a song from the BPM of over a hundred and twenty beats per minute which apparently can affect some negative your driving bit of time. Okay all right, so is the inverse true? A slower beats per minute based songs better for your driving? So according to this study the ideal BPM of a song whilst driving that they reckon can promote a safer driving experience is 60 to 80 beats per minute. Okay. So we've got an example of some songs. Driving this daisy. Oh my god, I think I just fell asleep at the wheel. it says that it can encourage you to be calmer and more focused. okay this is a bit

better so so lower BPM doesn't have to mean boring. no no. but this sounds like a slower yeah kind of vibe. Yeah. Oh no, I'm asleep again. Oh no. They do say you can't play certain songs at night because it will put you to sleep. I obviously make sense. It does make sense. It's common sense, but what I really want them to do a study on is does it affect when

you're trying to find an address having loud music on? Yeah, when I'm trying to find a car park. My music is going down. Yeah, you've got to turn the stereo down. To be honest, it kind of does play into what this study is saying, doesn't it? Yeah, totally. I want to know what podcasts are bad for driving. Whose podcast is the worst for driving? It's a great question. You know, maybe we can commission that study. We might not like the outcome though. You know what? There's probably a podcast about it. That's a great point. That's

who you should listen to here. You're on ZM, a station that would never play a bad song for your driving experience. Never!
